Exchange 2010 SP2 Setup Failed while performing the action 'install'

Got this error installing Exchange 2010 SP2 on Windows 2008 R2 with Exchange 2010 SP1 CAS/HUB/MBX role:Some controls aren’t valid. Setup previously failed while performing the action “Install”. You can’t resume setup by performaing the action “BuildToBuildUpgrade”.

Cause:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ExchangeServer\v14\MailboxRole\Action
Action key is present with value data: Install

Solution:
Delete Action key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ExchangeServer\v14\MailboxRole

  5. Look for and remove the action key one of the other components if this doesn't work such as AdminTools (this was the case for me)
