Got a message saying my computer may be infected and my Windows Installer is missing...! How can I solve?
Hi JohnYusko,
1. have you done any hardware changes or software on your computer before this problem?
2. do you have security software installed on your computer?
3. when exactly you receive this error message?
(a) I recommend you run a virus scan online from the link given below and check if the problem persists:
Also, make sure that you have the latest update of the software antivirus installed on your computer, so that it works correctly.
(b) you can also download & run Microsoft Security Essentials on your computer.
Due to Windows Installer, you try to unregister Windows Installer, and then reregister Windows Installer and check if the problem persists. To do this, follow these steps:
a. initially, box run, type "msiexec /unreg" and press ENTER on the keyboard.
b. Type "msiexec/regserver" and press ENTER on the keyboard.
Hope the helps of information.

I can't download the new itunes update. Error message says "there is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your supplier of staff or the package of support ".
I was running itunes perfectly well before trying to download this update. ITunes is not yet available.
Original title: update iTunes Application program compatibilityThanks for your help. Unfortunately no idea worked. Windows Installer 4.5 is not good for Windows 7. However, I was able to restore my computer to an earlier date and the previous itunes was there. It still would not allow me to access without security clearance, but I finally understood how to afford access - I am the administrator and the only user - go figure!

Vista came with IE8 and the updated browser he received was the only one that ever. for IE9.
But you need Service Pack 2 to install IE9 on Vista.
Click Start > right click on computer > left click on properties > see if you have Vista 32 bit or Vista 64-bit installed.
It will also tell you which SP you have installed.
Then, choose the download of 'bit' OK to use to install Service Packs, installation of SP1 first if it is not already installed.

When I start the first 13 items I get a message saying "Adobe Application Manager, needed to verify your license is missing or damaged." If I click OK, the box goes away and I can used the program. How to stop this message? I use a Windows 7sp1 PC and PE is an appropriate license. I uninstalled and then reinstalled the program, but that made no difference.
I have a facility for Application Manager, but he does not terminate. This program is no longer available on the Adobe Web site.

You are in collaboration with the antivirus and firewall disabled temporarily when you make this diagnosis? Does make a difference?

I have been in contact with Avast and they got my antivirus works then it has eliminated some of the infected files, but has done some damage to my XP system. Now, as mentioned, I can do things that my previous question. I can't use my cd to repair XP due to a prompt to say that my laptop is a version higher than the cd update...
Back to the drawing board. Any advice? An Apple MacPro is perhaps in my near future...Thanks to all of you who have read my problems.
Well, that would be good... If your system has installed Service Pack 3 (you did not) and your XP installation CD has an older PC, you probably want to use your old CD to repair your current system, would you? Does this sound like your situation?
Unless you have created an installation CD of new/updated XP with SP3 on it yourself, it is unlikely for most people to have such a thing. You can certainly use your old XP CD to create a new installation CD of XP that has SP3 on it, but you can do it later (this is a fun project).
So far things are working perfectly!
Avast! sometimes has a bad habit of quarantine (effectively Delete) critical XP system files... This is not sound like the problem with your automatic updates, but it would be nice to let some other scanners to look at your system (Avast! don't know everything).
Since you seem to have had some kind of infection of the system, I suggest you do the following tests in addition to your Avast! and THEN solve any problems the scans by operating clean.
Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/They can be uninstalled later if you wish. -

Error message says that I will get are more windows updates
Get an error message that says that I will get are more windows... updates and I am unable to see anything on my desk and keeps restarting the computer.
Get an error message that says that I will get are more windows... updates and I am unable to see anything on my desk and keeps restarting the computer.
Please quote the message you are getting verbatim. And please tell us when, under what circumstamces, you get it.
If your computer restarts spontaneously, you are probably blue-screening, and ready to the default reset whenever this happens. It's a poor one by default, and you should change. Do right click my computer, and then choose Properties. On the Advanced tab, click settings under Startup and recovery. Under system failure, uncheck 'automatically restart.
Now, when the problem occurs again, instead of reboot, you will get the blue screen with diagnostic information. Post back with these details for assistance.
