PowerCLI: Error 1406. Could not write value InstallPath to key….

Today I wanted to install PowerCLI on a new installed Windows 2008 R2 server. But I ended up with the following warning:

To fix this, you have to delete the following Registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\VMware, Inc.

And press retry. The PowerCLI setup will finish without errors.
