"The windows service install not a not could be accessed."
"The windows service install not a not could be accessed." I get this error when you try to install and uninstall programs. I tried everything on this forum and cannot repair. I have tried to change the registry, the clean boot, change the settings for the installer to manual and start, creating another account to test, restore points, updates to the installer, the upgrade to install 4.5, ran the File Checker system, checked for viruses or malicious software, while for other programs that may block the installation program. I don't know where to go from here. Can someone please help?
Looks like the only thing you haven't tried is pure install?
I suspect that you have used in the past the Windows Installer Cleanup utility, was as deeply in the past before this problem occurs? The reason I ask is that Microsoft has just withdrawn this service program.
Microsoft withdrew the Windows Installer Cleanup utility because of reliability problems, or is it only made available in specific tools Fixit.

Download a FREE program called Revo Uninstaller
http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html>. It allows to uninstall any program completely, including the files of monitoring programs. works very well, that you should have no problem more reinstall after uninstall this program.
Just don't allow the computer to restart if the part of Revo Uninstaller asks you if you want to restart now or later. Select afterwards and let Revo finish an orphan looking for registry entries. Reboot after Revo ends.
TIP: If you still think again your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, amplified, to the point, healed, twisted, fixed, enlarged, "swept" or optimized (it isn't), readhttp://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.

Original title: network router, XP computer and Windows 7 laptop computer dilemma.
My system XP computer is part of a network using a router. I also have a laptop Windows 7, using the same network. Reference Dell set up a password so that the network is not accessible without password, reducing the risk of piracy. Now, I can not in the XP system because of the defined password. How to reset or enter the password on the XP computer?
Hi Scottid2,
1. do you receive error messages when you access the Windows XP system?
2. What is the password being set by Dell?
You can check in the Windows 7 system if the password protected sharing is enabled. When protected by password sharing is enabled, people using other computers on your network cannot access your shared folders or printers unless they have a user account on your computer.
You can turn off password protected sharing and check if it helps.
For more information, see the articles:
Why can't I connect to other computers?
Networking of computers running different versions of Windows
As the password is set by Dell, you can also consult with support of Dell for the same thing:

Everything here seems to be based on two main things: unable to install Microsoft Office, and when checking, the functionality of Windows install has been transformed to wide/stopped. Every time I check, my Windows Installer says "Running". When I do msiexec/regserver and /unreg, the window disappears and I get no response. Try to download again, same problem.Please help, I have had this problem for over a week and I am currently at the end of the roll.Hi John,.
