    Windows Installer


    Hey, I wasn't sure where to post this thread, but I was installing the latest Java Update when I got an error message saying that the installer service failed to load. I went to the services list and Windows installer wasn't there. I don't know what to do. Any help is appreciated.

    I would probably try this first:

    SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

    Also the actual executable is
    msiexec.exe

    You might search for it on your system(should be in C:\Windows\System32)

    Before doing scannow it may be worth a shot to run this in an Administrator command prompt: sc start msiexec

    and see if it comes up.
