• "Error 1719. Able to access the Windows Installer Service"when you install programs.

  After spending the last week every night trying to get some software installed (and of course the search for remedies in probably all available forums), I let go and post this request for assistance. But first my story:

  I have lived the last week suddenly my Neat Receipts software does not recognize my scanner more. Trying to reinstall the software, I came across the error that Windows Installer could not be started. That's when I started first for solutions. I was surprised how many solutions I found (but more redoubled practically the same thing), but none did it for me. At this point, I was always under the assumption that it is a problem of the Neat Receipts software.

  Then after another night of frustration I could not pass my trial version Office 2010 plus a sort of license error. I was a little surprised that the trial version which abruptly ended without giving me the opportunity to enter a license key (I got wrong), but doesn't bother too much because I liked the product and had noticed last week as well as Office 2010 is already officially released and I decided to buy it. After spending about $300 and a successful upload, I tried to install it.

  And here my saga continues. First I got the message that I couldn't upgrade my trial version and need to uninstall. Uninstall with the uninstaller routine does not work (windows error message install), but I could uninstall it using the Windows-Install-Clean-Up utility. Now, I can start the installation process, but after being nearly halfway through the installation, I again get the error of Windows install the Windows Installer Service cannot be accessed (Error 1719). It is roughly the same error that I got at the beginning, when I tried to reinstall the software, Neat receipts. So, it seems not to be a misapplication of Neat receipts or Office 2010, but a windows problem.

  The frustrating thing however is that after spending all hours searching online for solutions, the only thing I've discovered is that I am in good company (i.e. There are many others have reported the same problem), but none of the solutions work. Just to be safe, do not for get the same Advisor I tried already several times, let me enumerate what I've done so far:

  1. I am logged on as administrator

  2 - I started the Windows Installer service

  3 - I ran SCF /sannow (no problems found)

  4. I not saved and re-entered the msiecec with / opt and/regserver. I did so explicitly for BOTH (!) msiexec programs, one in the system32 folder and the one in the sysWOW64 folder

  5. I tried to repair Windows 7 boot from the windows 7 installation DVD and run the option repair (no problem found)

  6. I tried to pass the parameter registry WOW64 (for MSIServer) from 1 to 0 (I found this in one of the suggested solutions) [and later again back to the original value 1]

  7. I tried to 'force' windows to ignore the msiexec for 64 bit (in the system32 folder) by renaming and by identifying the msiexec for 32 bit 9 in the sysWOW64 folder) and update the path regsever C:\Windows\system32\msiexec.exe \V to C:\Windows\syswow64\msiexec.exe \V

  8 - I disabled my firewall and antivirus

  9 - I did everything above in many variations with reset (both the save option - reboot)

  -in fact, I could do things more I can't remember.

  Unfortunately a recovery is not an option most, because I guess I tried too many things and my view of the possible return is a point in which my computer was already in place...

  I tried to involve as well a representative of Microsoft support explaining my dilemma, but only made e-mail a generic response on this same forum (great customer service!).

  While I was actually pretty happy in the last 4 months with my new Windows7 (and thus Office2010), I am now reaching the point where I fell like throwing finally the towel and kiss goodbye to Microsoft. I was seriously considering to move to Apple before decide me in February favor some cheaper hardware to continue with Microsoft and the new Windows7. But this experience not being able to fix my computer after spending nights in the search for solutions and not be able to get support from Microsoft disgusts me.

  Now I wonder if there is someone out there who could help me out here...

  Of course, the .msi applies only to installers .msi, which was my mistake for which I apologize.  Regarding a clean installation, the fact remains that you have faced this anomaly for several days, a clean install, despite the pain, would be a distant memory now.  This is my personal opinion, not Microsoft, they me disavowed a long time ago, in all cases MVPS have nothing to do with Microsoft, although the price is published by Microsoft, it is awarded for the caregiver, or in this case try to help others.  It is good that I can at least allow you to vent, it's better out there that maintenus kept bottled upward, no matter how hard it seems to fix the problem, it will be resolved in your favor by subsequently, one way or the other.

  In pursuing the side of permissions of things you can try that if you wish.

  This example may or may not work for you, with your program?

  "It seems that the"Run as Administrator"command gives you administrative privileges only, and they are not enough to install Java (and OpenOffice, by association). To work around this problem, you must actually connect to an administrator. Open a command prompt with admin rights by clicking Start, type cmd in the search/run box, hit CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER. At the prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / Active: Yes

  Then disconnect from your regular account and record as an administrator, you should be able to install the program. When you are finished, open a session to your regular account and, for security reasons, disabling the account administrator for assistance:

  «net user administrator / active: No.»

  See if this program you can tell what is happening with the failure of the Office to install.

• Windows Installer keeps trying to install an update for Paint Shop Photo Album, which is no longer available. Slow computer at startup.

  Original title: update

  Windows Installer keeps trying to install an update for Paint Shop Photo Album, which is no longer available. How he remove without disabling the windows installer? I installed v4.5 installer that allows enabling or disabling updates. Paint Shop appears but the box is not checked, so the installer must ignore, right?

  Using msconfig, I can find nothing in startup or services that will completely eliminate the problem, Evin with instaler disabled, Setup window will start to blink during boot computer has been scanned and cleaned with Security Essentials, SuperAntiSpy and Spybot. \

  There is a key in registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\ referring to it.

  What is no longer available - Paint Shop Photo Album or the update?

  If you have uninstalled Paint Shop Photo Album, you might see if running free Revo Uninstaller is able to get rid of leftovers that could cause problems.

  Issue of Windows install

  I just bought a HP Photosmart printer and I am trying to install the software on my computer. (OS is Windows Vista.) When I try to install my software, I get an error message that "Windows Installer could not be accessed". I ran "msconfig" and found that the Modual from Windows Installer status is stopped. How should I proceed?

  Thank you, Jeanne Vecere

  You could try to go to the MICROSOFT website, go to KNOWLAGE database and in the search bar, try the search for WINDOWS INSTALLER. Look for any version that is newer than the one you have. If this fails, try searching on GOOGLE. You can also try to do an update to WINDOWS VISTA.

  IF YOU ARE RUNNING 64-BIT WINDOWS, MAKE SURE YOU PRINTER WORKS WITH 64-BIT.

• Windows Installer is trying to install Shredder, which is already installed by McAfee.How stop it?

  I have Windows 7 (64), McAfee Internet Security, a desktop Acer AX3910-U4022.  Windows Installer is trying to install Shredder, which is already installed (verified by McAfee).  Windows Installer keeps trying without success to find Shredder.msi.

  It is a recurring problem.  How can I stop it.  Microsoft takes back me to ACER for a fix

  The application of Crusher that you are having trouble with seems to be part of the suite McAfee that you have installed.

  Because McAfee tries to install the application either in full, or update the application, I'd first uninstall the application completely, then reinstall it if it's something that you would like to continue to use.

  More information about McAfee Shredder is available on the website of McAfee.

• Windows Installer keeps trying to install msi.status but it will not install

  Windows Installer keeps trying to install msi.status but it will not install and I think he got the other updates to the installation.  How difficult or get rid of it?

  Hello
  In my view, that it is a software HP printer problem. Please, try the following:

  If you have the HP software on your PC support (printers, etc.)
  the disc when the pop-up window displays a location '1'. Click Browse
  then open the HP disc in the CD drive. A named icon status should
  appear. Click on this icon and load. This will get rid of the
  Status.msi loop.

  If you do not have the original disc. Uninstall HP Photosmart all-in-One Driver software and HP update program - then only reinstall the HP Photosmart all-in-One Driver software. Do not update, just live with it. The web link for the full features of the software download is provided below.

• Windows Installer keeps trying to install Vongo on Windows XP

  When I bought my laptop a few years ago, Vongo came as one of the pre-installed services. I removed it, but when the other connection of users with their own username, windowns Installer keeps trying to install it, which is very annoying because you hav to press the button cancel several times before it stops and you can´t do something else in the meantime. How can I remove and prevent the computer to try to install it whenever someone turn it on?

  Use the Windows Installer cleanUp Utility.
