Problem with the Windows Installer Cleanup utility
I'm having a problem installing of a particular program, and told me to run the Windows Installer Cleanup utility.
I downloaded msicuu2.exe and when I ran, got a Windows Script Host window:
Script: C:\Users\AppData\Local\Temp\IXP000. TMP\StartMsi.vbs
Online: 17
Char: 1
Error: Permission denied
Code: 800A 0046
Source: Microsoft VBScript runtime errorWhat that tells me, and what I (think I) do?
Hi Ernest,
Try to run the Windows Installer Cleanup utility as administrator and check if that helps.
To run as administrator
1. right click on the .exe file
2. Select run as administrator
Check if it works fine without any error message.
Hope this information is useful.

Unable to run the Windows Installer Cleanup utility
My problem is that I can't run the Windows Install Cleanup Utility (WICU). I'm wanting to run what I install iTunes. I get an error that I don't have permissions to change the text. I can't uninstall the program as well because of this permissions error. I am the administrator and the only user of my laptop.
I also received the error that the program is not associated with file associations. Honestly I don't know what to do.
Thanks for the reply.
Hello
I would like to start going through the steps in the following article. It covers a large number of Windows Installer problems. Ignore all the steps that deal with download and inst using the cleanup utility, as we are not at that stage yet. :-)

How do I know which programs to take off the windows Installer CleanUp list?
Windows Installer Cleanup of
* original title - how do I know which programs to take off the windows Installer CleanUp list? I don't want to uninstall or remove a program that I always use currently__ *.
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/290301 (MS Office only - replaced by the 'Fix It' utility)
(Note: the Windows CleanUp utility has been replaced by the "Fit It":http://support.microsoft.com/fixit/ )The Windows Installer Cleanup utility:
It was created to correct software installations that failed during the installation process and leaving a bunch of files (including a file name that ends with an extension .msi (= MicroSoft Installer .msi). For example an installation failed MS Office (note I said "failed").
See: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA011185721033.aspxAlso if when you installed MS Office you decided at the time you had no need of Power Point and chose not to install it. You find out later you need to make a Power Point presentation, insert the Office CD and try installing PowerPoint and it causes an error.
The tool using Windows Installer Cleanup will remove damaged installation files (located in C:\Windows\Installer). You then install Office and Power Point, once more, as they are not more present in the list of programs in the Add/Remove Control Panel. But at least this time Office and Power Point will install without errors as the Windows Installer Cleanup utility did what it was designed to do.
The unfortunate side effect of the cleanup tool is when you select and delete software that works correctly you then will no longer be able to install this software because it is no longer in the Add/Remove Programs list.
Now as to why there is so many files in the C:\Windows\Installer:
You will find lots of them. MSI files belong to software such as Java, Microsoft .NET Framework software AV, Norton Ghost, file downloaded during a Windows Update session and so on. It would seem that some software will clean up after itself and deletions, this is the file that were in the folder C:\Windows\Installer. Windows Update failure will create and leave the folders and files behind every time that you try to install the update and so you could end up with a large number of files taking up disk space.It could also be a lot of files (is most needed) orphans.
If you still have the original Windows Installer Cleanup utility, and then by using the msizap (msizap g!) command removes all cached Windows Installer data files that have been orphaned.Never be afraid to ask. This forum has some of the best people in the world to help.

Windows Installer CleanUp utility has messed my windows?
I ran an installer which provides a plug-in, PluginA, for the program "ArcMap.exe. Later, I tried to remove this program, but it did not work. The problem seems to be a bug in the plugin installer.
I browsed the Internet and found the "Windows Installer CleanUp Utility 7.2" tool which I installed it.
I ran this utility and managed to remove the plug-in.
However I noticed that when I started Outlook, it had to be configured each time :-(.
So I uninstalled the utility.
Then, I installed a plug-in for the program "ArcMap.exe", PluginB. This program installation, I know to be bug free.
However when I run ArcMap.exe it displays "Please wait while Windows configures PluginB" and this process never ends.
I tried to uninstall PluginB and it works, but I need to have installed PluginB.
Also, I always have the problem with the installer of windows running everytime I open Outlook.
It seems to me that "Windows Installer CleanUp Utility 7.2" screwed up my installation of Windows.
How can I fix it? Unfortunately I was not wise enough to have any system restore points useful.
Thanks in advance for answers!
Microsoft had removed and abandoned the Windows Installer Cleanup utility several years ago.
Click Start
Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
Click on "Run as Administrator"

I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard Windows. I replaced my PC with a Mac. I need a download link for the Mac version of Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard. I am only to find a link for the Pro edition.
Your license will work for the Windows version and it is too old to qualify for a swap of platform (I don't know if it is a Mac version of standard far in the back - I think that there is for Windows).

Windows Installer Cleanup Utility cannot run because corrupt Microsoft installation Service
I can't get the Microsoft Installer Cleanup utility to run, I get an error message "the Microsoft Installer could not access the Service." I tried re-registration of the service nothing is done. I work on a customer's computer and can not get KB2467173 or Windows Live Essentials update, so I am unable to run internet explore in the standard 32-bit functionality.
I would avoid reinstalling Windows if possible.
Note: Windows Installer Cleanup utility is no longer supported and is not available via a Microsoft page.
Comment: If your client is in the habit of running "Registry cleaners", a clean installation of Windows will be your only recourse.

I have the code redemtion and know what to do with it, but I can't find a download link for adobe first items 12. I can find one for 13, but I have not bought thirteen. My computer is a laptop and is not a HDD. Someone has a link to download adobe first elements 12?

You have purchased serial number that is different from the redemption code?
If you don't have the serial number purchased in hand, then go in the web site of Adobe http://www.adobe.com, sign and, in the search field, type
My products. Follow the link to my products. You should come to a list of your products. Click on Adobe Premiere elements 12 in your list to make it appear
the serial number.
If you can not get the link from John to the installation files to work for you, then consider the download and install the free trial of first 12 items
from the following web site. In the installation process, insert your serial number purchased.

Download link for the desktop application cloud broken creative
I can't get any download link for Creative Cloud desktop application work. Is there a power failure?
Thank you. I ended up creating a new user and was able to reinstall the CC desktop app, but unfortunately, I couldn't go past the blue dial of spinning. Since I'm due for a clean reinstall, I now have wiped the system clean and am humming in El Capitan. Thanks for the help. I hope there is an easier solution for this in the future, as this seems to be a problem persisted without a simple and coherent solution.
