    Is the error.  I'm a little confused given this is an install where the following line is present:

    2017-10-25 05:41:04 Info: SAV is not installed. Installing to {InstallToPath}

    It seems like it should be a fresh install so why it it uninstalling drivers?

    On the computer after the failed install has rolled back, do you have files under:
    C:\program files (x86)\sophos\sophos anti-virus\

    Was SAV once installed and ripped off in some way leaving behind some files?

    I would initially run Process Monitor while performing an install to see what is going on when the above line in the logs is thrown.  Does it fail to find Native.exe in:
    C:\program files (x86)\sophos\sophos anti-virus\ or fail to find it?  

    If so, maybe copy if from:

    C:\ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Cache\decoded\savxp\native\amd64

    to 
    C:\program files (x86)\sophos\sophos anti-virus\

    and try again?  Does it fail at another step?

    Maybe also it's also missing: savonaccessdriv.inf, sdcfilter.inf and SophosBootDriver.inf from C:\program files (x86)\sophos\sophos anti-virus\  These could also be copied from 

    C:\ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Cache\decoded\savxp\drivers\onaccess\win7_amd64\

    C:\ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Cache\decoded\savxp\drivers\sdcfilter\win7_amd64\

    C:\ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Cache\decoded\savxp\drivers\boottasks\win7_amd64

    Hope it helps.

    Regards,
