• MsiExec.exe running at all times

  Seems I'm always 2 instances of msiexec.exe running at all times. So far, I ran the Windows Installer Clean up tool, enabling the service to manual start and down anti virus scans. I can disable it in the Task Manager, but as soon as I restart, they are all two back on even if I do not want to install anything.

  When I try to install anything, I get the message that windows is already install something and try again later. I manually close msiexc.exe with the Task Manager and then the installation goes smoothly.

  Thank you
