If your setup.exe is installshield created and you are able to extract MSI out of it and this MSI does not install and gives an error like You need to run this application from setup.exe
Then you can add ISSSETUPDRIVEN=1 in property of the MSI either though MST or on command line then you will be able to run the MSI without any issues and without setup.exe
Sometimes, though you add ISSETUPDRIVEN=1 in MST or passing through command line it will not allow you to install the extracted msi directly, For more information you can gothrough this KB Article and fix it (if required)
