Microsoft technical support can't help you with the faulty Modules Installer.

I have pleasures with support by e-mail dated December 18 and the subject of some updates that caused the Windows Modules Installer to stop working.  Here are the steps that have been taken so far:

1. reboot the failet installation service.

2 direct download of Trustinstaller.exe and Trustinstaller.reg.

3. transfer of support tech System Info of MSINFO32.

4 Indentifcation updates specific causing the crash of the installer of Modules and make a direct download of them.

5 reset Internet Explorer options and disabling third-party browser extensions.

6 direct download of the tool.

7 supply tech with screenshots of SFC.exe and CheckSUR.log.

8 run the SFC/scannow command to request of the tech.  Error message received after scan 25% over that he can't finish.

9. made by tech to perform an in Place Upgrade of my installation disks.  Update could not happen due to Windows PowerShell.

10. made by tech to remove Windows PowerShell via "Turn Windows features on or off."  Error message that PowerShell cannot be disabled.

11. realized by tech to modify the registry to disable the PowerShell.  In Place Upgrade always reports installed PowerShell and would not continue.

12. looked for Windows PowerShell among the "installed updates".  There is no update labeled "Windows PowerShell" listed.

So that is where I am now.  Windows Update did not work except for the occasional definition for Microsoft Security Essentials update since mid-December.  No security updates or patches cannot install properly by the installer of Modules of Windows crash.  I can't repair my installation of Windows because I can't uninstall Windows PowerShell.  If someone is able to help, please keep in mind that I read all the posts about how to uninstall Windows PowerShell through the registry and installed updates; None of them have worked for me; so please don't cut and paste these instructions again.

Thanks to anyone who can help me.

System information: Windows Vista 64-bit, SP2 top Home.

And you were right: a trial version of Norton is installed.  I'm going to grap the Norton removal tool now.

You should have uninstalled Norton free trialware, and then run the removal tool, BEFORE the installation of updates...

VERY IMPORTANT! -Online any Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the removal tool appropriate prior to installing the updates, Windows Service Packs or IE upgrades AND BEFORE installing your new anti-virus application...

That being said, you have to get SP1 is installed, and then a few prerequisite updates (e.g., KB955430;) KB947821) before Windows Update will offer SP2. See...

Windows Vista service packs are not available for installation via Windows Update
