Cause

Parityhostagent.msi was renamed to something else (Ex. Parityhostagent8.9.4.msi)

Resolution

1. Rename the file back to parityhostagent.msi
2. Re-try the upgrade

Additional Notes

Minor upgrades (where the GUID is the same) require that the name of the installer be the same. This is due to some requirements from the OS.
