I would also clean the possible general corruption.

Run the SFC and Chkdsk to ensure that corruption is disabled.

Start - type this in the search box-> find COMMAND at the top and RIGHT CLICK – RUN AS ADMIN

  • 0 x 80070641 Windows service install could not be accessed

    Hi, I get this error on my PC in Windows 8.  I am trying to install a game, but can't due to an error of execution of VC ++.   When I try to install Visual C++ I get the above error.  I looked in my services and Windows Installer is there and it runs on the manual, it will not work.  I'm frustrated more and am more than a little annoyed.  If anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting the query on Microsoft Community. You have reached the right place. Let us work together to find the cause of this problem and try to solve.

    Error in the log: 0 x 80070641 means ERROR_INSTALL_SERVICE_FAILURE - the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if Windows Installer is not correctly installed

    To check if these methods resolves the problem, try the following:

    Method 1: Check the Windows Installer service.

    1. Go to start > run > type services.msc > OK.
    2. The Services window will open, scroll down to Windows Installer, and double-click it.
    3. The Properties window opens on the drop-down menu (startup type) select 'automatic' > OK and close windows.
    4. Restart the PC, and I hope it will work for you.

    If the problem persists, proceed to the next method.

    Method 2: Unregister and register the Windows Setup program again

    1. Click Start, click run, type MSIEXEC /Unregister. and then click OK. Even if you do it right, it may seem that nothing is happening.
    2. Click Start, click run, type MSIEXEC/REGSERVER, and then click OK. Even if you do it right, it may seem that nothing happens, or you can briefly see an hourglass. After you run this command, the operation is complete.

    Try your application based on Windows Installer again.

    Method 3: follow the steps in troubleshooting of this article:

    How to troubleshoot issues that may occur when you install, uninstall, or upgrade one program on a Windows computer

    I tried everything on this site and many others to try to solve this problem. The error message also says something to communicate with staff support from time to time.

    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.
