Unable in install (mostly) anything 0x80070002
Win7 Pro 64.
I attempted to install Google Sketchup the other day and was given an error. I did a little research and tried a few potential fixes, but nothing worked (turning off startup services, registry edits, amount other things)
This is the entire error:
microsoft.VC80.ATL, type="win32", version="8.050727.6195", publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processArchitecture="x86"
HRESULT:0X0070002
Also, during this time period I did not renew Norton and instead decided to install AVG.
I ran into this similar error:
microsoft.VC90.ATL,version="9.0.30729.4148",publicKeyToken="1fc8b9a1e18e3b",processArchitecture="x86 ", type="win32"
HRESULT:0X0070002
Same HRESULT number.
Something in my reading said to try and install Visual C++ 2005, this came up with a nearly identical error as well. (though I am not sure if 2005 is compatible with Win7?)
I was able to successfully install MalwareBytes during this time, however.
What is wrong here? Is there anything I can try to fix this short of a complete reinstall of Windows?
