Resolution
This error is caused by sharing the Workstation Installer 64 and/or Workstation Installer 32 with clients instead of the whole Statistica 13 folder.
To resolve the error:
1. Unshare the Workstation Installer 64 and/or Workstation Installer 32
2. Navigate up to the parent Statistica 13 folder and share that one instead:
3. Proceed with the client machine installation via the Workstation Installer that is located in the previously shared Drive:\Program Files\Statistica\Statistica 13 folder and this will resolve the error.
