Cannot install printer software

Try to install the software for the new printer and it does not allow me to. I changed our main account user to the Administrators group and rebooted the computer and the error msg still appears when I try to install the software that I am not an administrator. I even tried to disable UAC temporarily to allow installation and the error msg always comes to the top. Any suggestions? Tried to create a new user to be admin, but it would not allow me to create.

When you go to run Setup, right-click on it and select run as administrator from the context menu; you will need to provide your credentials for administrator (user name and password).

Kind regards

  • I get a "cannot install printer because a policy has been enabled on your computer that blocks NT 4.0 driver ' how can I install my printer?

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6500 running Vista 32 bit. I just bought a new printer, a HP Photosmart C4640, when I tried to install and connect I get a message indicating that it cannot install printer as a policy has been activated this block driver NT 4.0. I have run all updates of software and drivers, but still get this message. I've been at this for almost a week now. I've been doing the HP race with regard to aid. I am VERY fusturated at this point and desperately need help. What should I do to make this work?

    Hi jessheffernan2003,

    This problem occurs because Windows Vista does not support the installation of kernel-mode printer drivers. Windows Vista only supports installing user mode printer drivers.

    To work around this problem, try to get and install a printer driver as a user on the Windows NT 4.0 computer. If you can not get the particular user mode printer driver, try to get a driver printer in user mode compatible with the kernel mode printer driver which is hosted on the Windows NT 4.0 computer. To get a printer driver updated for the print device, contact the manufacturer of the printer.

    For more information about your hardware manufacturer, visit the following Web site:

  • Failure to install printer software package

    Hello. Am I the only person having this problem? The printer I have is an all-in-one Officejet 8500 Pro Wireless (A909g). My operating system is windows 8.1. I downloaded the software OJ_AIO_P8500_A909_Full_Win_WW_140_408 and on 2 of three of my computers when I run the program and click 'install', I get a pop information window telling me that the program does not find a file. Then I have to close the program that I can not go any further. The pc alone it will run on is my Sony vaio laptop running windows... wait, 8.1?

    Has anyone, same HP, you have a solution to this problem? Are there any new installation of software from 2012 programs?

    Hi Phil_boy,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP,

    I see that you have a problem with the installation of the printer on your computer Windows 8.1.

    I have a few steps we can browse.

    First of all, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a bar/power strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer for example, but it is intended for HP products in general. Please click the link which explains the problems when connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power.

    I have also found a document that addresses for the installed printer in Windows 8.1, a Message "System cannot find the specified file" is displayed on the computer.

    Please do not hesitate to write me again if you have any questions or concerns.

    See you soon,.

  • Cannot install HP Software Solutions for C5550 on Vista

    I recently bought a new Photosmart C5550 all-in-one printer. I spent two full days, try to install the software on my Vista desktop. After countless hours on the phone with technical support to get the same results (fatal error & Windows Installer problems), I was told to contact the computer manufacturer. Another two hours on the phone with tech support and was told to reinstall Windows. I've done reluctantly. I received all of the updates in my installed security software and then tried the printer... same results as before reintsalling Windows. I tried to reformat once more, updates installed and then installed the printer drivers & software before installing security software. It actually installed and worked very well.  Last week, I discovered that there is an updated driver and software of the printer so I decided to install it, don't think not that I would have the same problems. Is it installed perfectly on my laptop (which she had done before), but would not install it on my desktop. After another few hours in line with the technical support I uninstalled all the software and printer drivers & stop all unnecessary processes (including security software), but still no luck. I am now without a printer on my desk and can't figure out what to do. I don't want to have to reformat again and try to install. I wonder if I uninstall my security software if it works because the printer seems to install without security software installed. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you!

    Just to update, I registered & re-recorded MSI before installing since that was the error message that I kept getting.

    Hey @brommmmm,

    One thing we know for sure is that your computer and the printer doesn't seem to like. I think that there are problems with your registry that are causing all these different errors, especially since the error log for the program installation continues to point to the registry key: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Hewlett-Packard\Install\ {BCDD692B-17 2D-440-9A1B-501C71D72CC8} for permissions problems. I have a little more suggestions to solve these problems in System.

    Step 1: Uninstall your printer software and drivers

    Step 2: Run the CCleaner on your computer to fix registry issues:

    CCleaner

    Step 3: Unlock hidden Admin account:

    1. Open the display Start again by clicking the Windows start at the bottom of your computer screen icon or by selecting the Windows button in the bottom left of your keyboard to the right of the Ctrl key.
    2. Once the splash screen opens, type command prompt
    3. Once the result of the search for the command prompt appears, do a right click on it and "run as administrator"
    4. Once the command prompt opens type: net user administrator / Active: Yes and press ENTER.
    5. Then, restart your computer
    6. When your computer turns back on, you should be able to log in to the new administrator account that appears. This account will not have a password on it.
    7. If your computer will automatically connect to your normal spending users user account and log on to the administrator account.

    Step 4: Install printer:

    1. Once you are logged into the new account administrator download and run the installation of your printer: HP Deskjet F2400 all-in-One series Full Feature Software and Driver
    2. Start the installation of your printer.
    3. Once the printer installs successfully log on the administrator account and log in to your normal user account. The printer should now be installed on your normal user account.

    Step 5: Disable the hidden Admin account:

    1. Open the display Start again by clicking the Windows start at the bottom of your computer screen icon or by selecting the Windows button in the bottom left of your keyboard to the right of the Ctrl key.
    2. Once the splash screen opens, type command prompt
    3. Once the result of the search for the command prompt appears, do a right click on it and "run as administrator"
    4. Once the command prompt opens type: net user administrator / active: No. and press ENTER.
    5. Then, restart your computer

    Please respond and let me know if everything works now. Fingers crossed!

    It is a great place to get help! I read your post and see that you are unable to install the printer on the computer Windows 10. Thank you for providing all the information and the screenshot. I want to help you solve this problem.

    I have provided with steps to unlock the hidden administrator account and the installation of the printer on this account to see if this will help this situation.
     
    Note: Do not connect the USB cable until you are prompted during the installation.

    • Go to your Start menu and in the box "search programs and files", type CMD.
    • CMD will fill as an option to search above, just right-click on it and "run as Administrator".
    • Once opens in CMD (command prompt), type net user administrator / Active: Yes and press ENTER.
    • Then, close CMD and then restart your computer.
    • When your computer is on the newspaper in the new account which should show. It will be called Administrator and will not have a password on it.
    • If your computer automatically connects to your account after the restart then go to your Start menu and click on the arrow next to 'shutdown' and choose 'change user '. Now log on to the administrator account, that we have just released.
    • Under the administrator account, install the printer software.
    • Immediately after connecting the USB cable, follow the steps described in this paper: A Fatal Error displays during Installation of the software. This should resolve this error message.
    • Test the printer.
    • To disable the Admin account start at step 1 and type net user administrator / active: No..

    How is the printer connected?

    Please click the 'Thumbs Up' to thank me for my efforts! If this helps you resolve the problem you are experiencing, please click the "accept as Solution. Keep me posted. Good luck!

  • Update to Windows 7 RTM failing - error 80070652 - cannot install new software or run Windows Update successfully.

    I upgraded from Win 7 RC for Win 7 RTM on my 64-bit machine from Dell and started installing all my software.  Everything was fine until I started Windows Update and had a list of 15 updates that needed to be done.  Several have had agreements that I had to accept, he wasn't the normal process of "update in the background.  I had to leave and is concerned to let the process of continuous updating on its own and potentially hang, so I cancelled it.

    Since then, I can't install any software or to upgrade my system.  Updates fail with the error message "WindowsUpdate_80070652" which seems to be undefined.  In some cases, I get an error message another installation is running and the current installation or update cannot be performed until the end of the current installation.

    I restarted my dozens of machine time and then immediately began installing or upgrading windows - without success.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  It seems that there is a dead plant that does not block updates and installs.
