Administrators AWS Posted January 12, 2013 Administrators Posted January 12, 2013 Seriously, Microsoft??? This same error has been coming up since Windows XP! It is January 2013. Windows 8 64x. Attempting to install Adobe 9, getting this same error. I run mmc services - the services IS started, IS set to manual, and the option to change the startup is grayed out. I am an administrator on my machine. I tried the following in a cmd.exe window "Run as Administrator". > msiexec /unregister > msiexec /regserver > net stop msiserver > net start msiserver The service reported it successfully stopped and started. Still won't install, and anything else that uses the Microsoft Windows Installer won't install. I find nothing about this happening on a Windows 8 install. I am dual-booting Windows 7 and Windows 8, and it is happening only on Windows 8. Can't you get out an authoritative fix on this????? Seriously? Jacqueline Tregre View the full article Quote
