PSADT 4.1.3 and Realtek's setup.exe -s fails vs cmd as admin and setup.exe -s

The Toolkit General Discussion

I would love to to make a package by using PSADT 4.1.3 for this driver installation. Realtek USB FE / GbE / 2.5GbE / 5G / 10G Family Controller Software

So when I run CMD as admin and run: setup.exe -s
It works

When PSADT execute the exe with the param:

    ## <Perform Installation tasks here>
    Start-ADTMsiProcess -FilePath "$($adtSession.DirFiles)\setup.exe" -ArgumentList '-s'

I get the failed execution in log, would any of you know why this happens?

FYI Start-ADTMsiProcess is only for MSI files. (It's in the name)

use Start-ADTProcess instead.
