Maybe this help someone in the future.
Regarding the error in MSI Log:
Failed to connect to server. Error: 0x80080005
MainEngineThread is returning 1601
The first reason being that you are trying to install an application while in safe mode. The second possibility is that the Windows Installer is not properly installed.
To solve this problem please perform following steps:
1. Go to start\run and type : msiexec /unregister.
Once done Go to services.msc and we should not see the Windows Installer service there.
2. Go to start\run and type : msiexec /regserver.
Once done We should now see Windows Installer service under services.msc.
3. Re attempt of Acronis installation
4. If above not resolve the problem then you should download and install Windows Installer 4.5 (or 3.1)
5. Re attempt of Acronis installation
