Hello Vickneshwari Reddy,

strange. You should find the log in your %temp% directory. Just type %temp% in the Explorer address bar or the search from the Start button.

Hello Vickneshwari Reddy,

seems that some version of Sophos Anti-Virus is already installed. SophosInstall tries to remove it but fails with error 3005 (please see the linked article).

Hello Vickneshwari Reddy,

did you ever install Sophos before as it claims it has found an old installation? And did you check your group membership as per the article?

If I read the log correctly the reportedly installed product is {6C44AB65-918A-483C-9AF5-83D71D78A8B2}. If this is caused by some leftovers (you say it doesn't appear to be actually installed) please see this thread (although in conjunction with the Home product it should apply as well).

Hello Vickneshwari Reddy,

not all keys necessarily exist. Actually these are two formats of the product code used in different places, it's sufficient that the code exists in one of the places for the install to fail. Did you retry the install, if not please do so. If it fails again post the latest logs.
