Windows installer service could not be accessed

[KarolR]

I have Win 7x64 bit operating system (does it say the motherboard and the CPU are also x64, or they could be x64 and still work?)
I try to insytall Autocad, error, so i try to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package
In both cases it writes Windows installer service could not be accessed.
I ebabled most of the processes, and still: Windows installer service could not be accessed

Hi KarolR,

If you have Win7x64 installed, yes indeed your system supports 64 bit programs.

1. Did you disable several processes? If so, why please?
2. Are all your Windows 7 updates installed?

You can use Simplix Update Pack for Win7 Updates!

How to Fix the "Windows Installer Service could not be accessed

Wow!
What a convoluted and complex way to do something so simple.


Windows Installer is a service, quickly accessed by just Running "Services.msc" from the RUN box.


Scroll down to "Windows Installer" and right click it. Under "Properties" you can change the way the service runs, and stop or start it.



I just checked mine, and it was set to "Manual". I changed it to "Automatic", just for grins.


You can do that with any "Service".


Good Luck,
Tm
