    Hi Sanjays11, This is not a bug. However, if you have experienced some issues when installing/upgrading your server previously, and it didn't finish the setup properly, it leaves a watermark in the registry, under HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftExchangeServerv14AdminTools. You should remove watermark and Action completely and leave only Configuredversion entry there.
