• Every time I open a file in Media Player 11, I get a dialog box telling me that Windows Installer is "preparation for installation.

  Whenever I open a file in Microsoft Media Player 11, (11.0.5721.5280) I get a dialog box telling me that Windows Installer is "preparation for installation.

  He tell me what it is trying to install and crashes

  No media plays back.

  I just installed Office 10

  I ran the repair of Office 10

  I uninstalled WMP11 and reinstalled

  I ran "Fix IT" page Support MS

  I run MS Security Essentials... It is to this day and I run a full scan

• Preparation for installation at each connection, but what?

  Windows XP Pro with SP3, stable for years.

  But now since one some time to Setup tries to install 'something' after the connection very. The "preparation for installation" prompt appears, unfortunately, never says what it is trying to install, as I know that it takes 30 sec suspended in this popup, appearing 3 - 4 times in a row each whenever I have connection. And no 'usual remedy' has contributed to this day:

  (1) check for product Red
  (2) regedit, search for the names of products already installed.
  (3) analysis of the registry: all deleted using WiseRegistryCheck and CCleaners as well.
  (4) windows install cleanup tool v3.00.00.0000: I don't see all of the unknown elements...
  (5) manual cleaning of all TEMP directories and all these.
  (6) the manual analysis of services for unknown names
  (7) viruas scan and adware

  Could someone help me identify the culprit?
  Under settings, I still find a plethora of log files in the directory temp, like this:

  Thomas,
  Looks like you did a lot to try to find the culprit.  One thing that I do not see you mention performs a clean boot.  If you haven't tried that I implement that and then restart and see if Setup returns to the top.

  Follow the steps in this article to resolve problems with a clean boot.

  Advanced problem resolution by clean restart.

  Let me know if this helps.  Also have you looked in the Application section in the event viewer and saw all errors related to this?

  2. for how long have you been faced with this problem?

  3. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  a. Quit all Windows programs.
  b. click Start, click run, type msiexec /Unregister in the Open box and then click OK.
  c. click Start, click run, type msiexec/regserver in the Open box and then click OK.
  d. restart your computer.

  I hope this helps.
