IM TRYING to re - INSTALL WINDOWS VISTA ON MY T-6321 to the front door, BUT WHEN I INSERT THE DISC, AND INSTALL, a MESSAGE APPEARS SAYING: WINDOWS cannot OPEN THE FILE D:\Sources\Install.wim REQUIERED. Make sure that all required files for installation aare available and restart the installation. Error code: 0x8007000D, SHOULD ALL BE ON THE DISCALREADY?

Hi JRCLNSIN100,

 

Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

We would like to get some more information from you to help solve your problem. You better, please answer the following questions.

·         What is the disk you use to reinstall?

·         Is this a recovery or reinstalling the disc you are using?

·         When exactly do you get this error message?

·         What is the edition of Windows Vista, you try to install?

·         How old is the drive that you are using?

·         How are you starting the installation process?

After researching the error 0x8007000D code is essentially due to file corruption and a problem with the drive itself.

First check if you have scratches or dust on the disc and clean the surface and try again.

To check if the disk is wrong, you will need to copy the contents of the DVD to the hard drive and try to install using that.

To perform a flat installation of Windows Vista, follow these steps.

Note The hard disk must have at least 3 GB of free space on the disk for the Windows Vista installation files. The hard disk must have at least 15 GB of additional disk space to install Windows Vista. For more information about system requirements for Windows Vista, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address:

http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/products/windowsvista/editions/SystemRequirements.mspx

  1. Insert the Windows Vista installation disc.
  2. Start Windows Explorer.
  3. In Windows Explorer, click to select the drive for the Windows Vista installation disc.
  4. On the Edit menu, click select all.
  5. On the Edit menu, click copy.
  6. Click to select the hard disk you want to contain the flat installation files.
  7. On the file menu, point to new, click the folder, type Windows Vista Setupand then press ENTER.
  8. Double-click the Windows Vista Setup program, and then click Paste on the Edit menu.
  9. Double-click Setup.exe, and then follow the instructions that appear.

See the link below for more information on flat installation.

This problem can also occur if the firmware of the DVD drive is defective or obsolete.

If the step above does not resolve the question suggests that you install the latest drivers for the DVD player on the computer.

  • Error message "Windows cannot open this file" for all .exe files.

    I have talked with agents of cat and directly by e-mail to a person called Betty to and followed the steps all the recommended without correcting this problem. I can only run a .exe file in a folder. Any attempt to run an exe from Windows XP - Pro results in a box with the above mentioned error. He also said "to open this file, Windows needs to know what kind of program created." It is now more than a month to get this resolved. It only allows me to easily perform some maintenance and even investigations when necessary. This is the only problem I have with my system. I used AVG 2011 to clean my system to any virus or Trojan horse, and he pointed out that there is no intrusion. This sounds like there should be a simple solution because nothing else is affected. I am very frustrated not to find a solution after such a long time.

  • Get the Error Message When you try to reinstall Vista: Windows cannot open the required file: E:\Sources\install.wim

    I'm trying to reinstall windows vista for the following reasons:

    1. I have SQL Server 2008 installed on my computer.  I deleted some files a long time ago and it screwed something and I couldn't reinstall.
    2. I had partitioned my hard drive for vista half and half SuSE and I deleted who and when I did, I think I deleted another partition - my recovery partition (E:\?).
    3. I need to clean my laptop.

    When I try to start the installation of a disk and I put in my product key, I get the following error:

    Windows cannot open the required file E:\Sources\install.wim.  The file does not exist.  Make suure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation.  Error code: 0 x 80070002.

    Let me know if you have any ideas how I can fix it.  My next step was to recreate this E directory and download the install.wim file and re start the installation.  I could not find the file install.wim well.

    Hi Rob,

    I checked the link you provided.  What you downloaded was just the Vista recovery environment.  You cannot actually re - install Vista with that and if you blew your recovery partition unfortunately you may be out of luck.  You blew your partition containing Vista runs so the SFC will be of no help either.  I wish I had better news for you, but I don't see any way o get on without a Vista DVD.  I have good news for you if.  When you get your HP drive if you have problems with the installation, we will be able to help you with that.

    Take care and let us know if you need assistance when the disc arrives. Locutys of Borg

  • Click on the link-get "Windows cannot open the file" select a program?

    After clicking on link get "Windows cannot open this file" have to manually "selecta program programs installed" Firefox appears as a choice and I double-click. How can I solve this problem / eliminate these extra steps
    ? Thank you Joe
    I am running Windows XP, MS office Outlook 2007

    Is it a link in an e-mail message in Outlook? This problem arises from time to time.

    While Firefox can usually set himself as the proper application to open the URL, you click in other programs, settings are sometimes blur or do not take. This article has tips to solve this problem: setting Firefox as the default browser does not work - what to do. Anything there help?

    If the problem persists, is there something special about how you start Firefox? For example, you have this launch in a security 'sandbox' or virtual machine? You have all the command-line options set to allow several simultaneous sessions of Firefox, or call the Profile Manager? If none of this sounds familiar to you, the answer is probably not.

  • Error - Windows cannot open this file when trying to install Microsoft Gadgets.

    Original title: how to install gadget from Microsoft.

    I down loaded the gadgets and themes, when I go to install, Windows cannot open this file. If I get them from microsoft, it seems that windows can open.

    Hi mikemontgomery,

    If you use windows XP, it is not possible to install Microsoft Gadgets on it. Microsoft Gadgets are optimized for Windows Vista and Windows 7 only.

    However, you can use your favorite search engine to download third-party gadgets which can serve the purpose.

    Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    Hope the helps of information.

    Hello

    1. have you downloaded the right file to library?

    2. What is the file format of the file that you downloaded?

    3. What are the recommendations of programs that provided by Windows?

    4. have you installed the player from the computer program?

    5 is this problem confined to a particular file that downloaded?

     
    The file that you downloaded requires an appropriate program to open it in Windows. That's why I suggest to check again if you have installed the reader program and also check if you have downloaded the appropriate Center books.

  • I get a message saying "Windows cannot open the file...". »

    I had a lot of problems with infections, so I was running many scanning programs.

    After getting my computer almost completely cleaned, I ran the Super Anti-Spyware program.  We find 3 infections, which I'd delete (I don't have no way of knowing that I removed).

    Since then, whenever I try to open a program, or even Windows Update, etc., I get a message saying:

    "Windows cannot open the file.  To open this file, Windows needs to know what kind of program has created.  Windows can go online to search automatically, or you can manually select from a list of programs.

    When I go on the web, I get a lot of options, which are almost free scans that then charge for fixing.  I am also very scared that I can also get another infection from these sites.

    I hope someone can help me solve this problem.

    StanEp

    Yes, each method is a set of measures to try and then go ahead and try each one separate.

    2 method will reset the executable (.exe) extension that will allow you to open programs. It is not clear what exactly you are trying to open so that it can have no effect.

    Keep in mind that the damage caused by malware can be irreversible, in the case of relocations are necessary.
