Win 7 Windows Installer 5.0 Problem
Hi,
new to the forum etc.....
I have installed Win 7 x64. I suspect I have inadvertently deleted part of the Win Installer 5.0. It is not available as a separate download (only 4.5). I have been stuffing around for several days and have tried many, many things all to no avail. So, the installer could be in quite an indeterminate state.
Every time I try to install software (say Office or even the OS) the installation simply fails with setup has encountered n error after a few seconds.
I have backups from a month ago, but am unsure whether these had the problem.
Is there some way I can reinstall the Win 7 Win Installer 5.0.
Also in the services there was a Windows installer service, now there is an Instalator Windows service.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated - this is driving me insane.......
Cheers,
Kevin
