I'm unable to install programs or Windows updates.

My Vista installer does not (32 bit system).  I can not install updates Windows or any other software.  I ran each 'fix it' available.  Won't install not even the console 'fix it '.  I keep getting told to install things if this will work but that's the problem - NOTHING will be installed.  Does anyone have an answer?  I'm out of ideas/solutions/possibilities.  Thank you!  Jimmy

original title: my windows vista installer does not work

Yes, I tried this and all the alternatives that Microsoft has to offer.  Finally, we re-installed Vista, which, so far, seems to have solved the problem.  Thank you.

    ·         You are trying to install updates?

    ·         Are what fixit you referring?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable the antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network at the time the anti-virus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot state to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Hi Frank,.

    I installed the program successfully.  The files will be in a Zip folder, please extract the contents of the folder.  Once the contents of the file has been extracted, right-click on the Windows Installer package and go to properties.  There should be a Compatibility tab.  Be sure to run this program in compatibility mode and proceed with the installation.  If this program is still not able to be installed, you need to get a 64 bit version of the software.  If you please you would follow with me at your convenience, I would be very happy.

    Thank you

  • Help! Impossible to open or run almost all programs after Windows Update KB976002 'Browser Chooser' was automatically installed.

    I had, very unwisely, allowed the Windows updates should be installed automatically.  An update installed itself on 15 March 2010, KB976002 who is called the browser selector.  This canoe be uninstalled and reading other forums, I understand it could be something that was forced into the EU.  His goal is probably to allow users of two or more internet browsers to choose how they hire, but since it installed itself that I could not open or run most of the other programs including MS Office, Skype, iTunes, while others can be opened only if chosen to be administrator.  If I could, I would like to uninstall this update.  Similar defects there?  Any help please?
