Error 2753

[squid13]

I'm trying to install a program and am getting error 2753. It has something to do with the windows installer. I'm using Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. Need some help.

Hello !! Welcome to SF !!

Try these steps

Start | CMD | Right Click and Run as administrator | regsvr32 vbscript.dll

Then try to install it again and see whether that fixes it. If not repeat the steps again one more. If still you have the problem post us back we'll see what we can do.

Hope this helps,
Captain

Ran that command and tried to install and got the error 2753. Ran the command again and tried to install and got the error again. The command was successful each time.

FirstDefense-Rescue Lite I had it installed before I had to reformat and now I've run into this problem.

FirstDefense-Rescue Lite I had it installed before I had to reformat and now I've run into this problem.

This error occurs when there is left over files from previous / Failed install.
You should cleanup all the entries like rename the folder from Program Files then run CCleaner to make sure all then registry entries are going.
Download Windows Installer Utility and make sure your remove all entries related to this file. Once you do that then go ahead and reboot the System and install it again and see if that works.

Hope this helps,

I ran CCleaner and cleaned the registry also ran Ace Utilities. There was nothing in program files cause it never installed. Ran that program you suggested and it was not listed. I did all that other stuff before I tried to install the last time. I'm signing off for the night it's way past my bedtime, 12:20 AM. I'll pick it up again in the morning.

It was the program that was corrupted. I was able to get another copy and it installed OK. Thank You for your help.

i am having the same problem. my installation file is my computer driver which is "HP Wireless Assistance". I had follow the instruction many times but i still can't get to install the file. Anyone please help??

Your having trouble installing HP Wireless Assistance. The aftermath after or during the installation is getting an error code saying what exactly?
I need to determine if the error is from Windows, from HP installation software, or something else.

When did it started happening, if it was recent, we could easily try system restore.
To me you seem to be trying to install wireless drivers?
Please update your computer specs.

I can assist you with a complete uninstallation and remove of your wireless driver, and help you reinstall them.

Or someone else will, im soon to head off to bed

I having trouble during the installation, the error code saying was attached.
the error i get is from the HP installation.
Previously i manage to install this software in my computer, but i had reformat my computer and need to reinstall all the driver again. This has lead to the error.
I am really sorry that reply so late.

 

[chris1neji]

You still haven't told us what your computer specs are, i need this information so that i can link you to the correct wireless drivers.

Anyways please use CCleaner,
Download CCleaner 3.16.1666 - Download - FileHippo.com
Run the registry cleaner, it will check for empty entries or leftover entries. When you run it it will ask you if you would like to make a backup please do so.

Fix problems with programs that can't be installed or uninstalled
This tool is the replacement of the utility mention on page 1. Please run it and follow the instructions.

RE-DOWNLOAD and save the wireless drivers, and run it.
Make sure you are downloading the correct driver for your wireless card, and for the right operating system.

 

[boyboy]

I am sorry that i miss that question. My computer specs was attached in the attachment.

 

[boyboy]

I had tried every step that u ask me to do.
1. run the registry cleaner --- done
result --- no isues was found.
2. fix problems with programs -- done
getting the result in the attachment
3. Re-download and run it.
getting the same problem

 

[chris1neji]

Is your computer a laptop by hp?
if so click rb:
Click Computer
Click on System Properties (see attachment one)
What Model do you have ? It should say detail information about your manufacturer and model.

Or you can look underneath your laptop their should be a sticker saying model number. See attachment 2

---------------------
Second post:
Also have you done Windows Updates, make sure .net framaework is fully updated and installed. A lot of games/programs rely on this and this can sometimes lead to installation problems or programs cant update.

Product: compaq presario V3700
V3793TU

The driver i download from this link
HP Wireless Assistant Compaq Presario V3793TU Notebook PC - HP Customer Care (United States - English)

ya. .net framaework is installed and is new version.

 

[chris1neji]

One possibility is that the software is not compatible, your downloading Drivers for Vista and not 7. They do not have support for Seven.

Update post:You could try installing the program under compatability mode. Maybe this will allow for your installation to go without error.

If you would like to retry, i suggest completely uninstalling all of Microsoft . Net Framework, rebooting.
Re Do windows updates.
Reboot.
Try to install the drivers again.
If this does not work, maybe someone else has a better idea.

2 suggestions off top of my head
-Revert and install vista
-Buy a Wireless USB adapter

Internal Error 2753 when installing WinZip - WinZip Computing :: Knowledgebase

Yes, I know that is for WinZip, but the same principle should still apply.

Try using something like Revo Uninstaller Free and see if it can remove the remnants of the previous installation(s), then give it another shot.
