Exception while starting created installer

Need your help:

I have created an installation with NSIS, but on some computers it causes an exception before it starts with the first page 🙁

Other installs created with NSIS do work on that special computer
On other computers the same install does work!

Does anybody as an idea? Where shall I search for that problem? How can I debug this. The computer seems not to be that much different (same OS, same company network)

Many thanks,

Problem found

The problem is the SetEnviroment command I used as it is shown in the tutorials:

System::Call 'Kernel32::SetEnvironmentVariableA(t, t) i("name", "value").r0'

This does not work on all computers. I found a workaround to work without enviroment variable, but does anybody know how to set the envvar without this problems?

Problems

It ist just the standard Windows dialog - the problem has run into an error and must be closed:

Debug , Do not send, Send report

Just the standard !!!

I can not say more than this - sorry 🙁
