Chocolatey, MSI installers and “… was not successful. Exit code was ‘3010’. See log for possible error messages.”

For some Chocolatey installations, I got an error message like this one:
"ERROR: Running ["C:\Users\Developer\AppData\Local\Temp\chocolatey\vmware-tools\10.3.10.12406962\VMware-tools-10.3.10-12406962-x86_64.exe" /S /v /qn REBOOT=R ] was not successful. Exit code was '3010'. See log for possible error messages."
I wish that a Chocolatey install could indicate it is msi based, and Chocolatey would convert this to a soft reboot message, as [WayBack] MsiExec.exe and InstMsi.exe Error Messages – Windows applications | Microsoft Docs indicates it means ERROR_SUCCESS_REBOOT_REQUIRED:

taskkill /f /im explorer.exe
del %LOCALAPPDATA%\IconCache.db /a
start explorer

It will kill explorer.exe, delete the IconCache.db, then starts explorer which will rebuild IconCache.db.
