Windows Installer 4.5 installed it on Windows Vista

Original title: defective Installer

Ultimate home, update 2, 64-bit Vista. Have a defective installation program and install download of 4.5. Said there is not enough storage, but there are 129 available concerts.

Hi rdr2345,

1. are you referring to Windows Installer?

2. Why do you want to install Windows install 4.5?

3. What is the complete error message you receive?

4. where did you downloaded version of Windows install 4.5?

You do not have to install Windows install 4.5 version if you have Windows vista service pack 2 installed on the computer.

If you still want to install it, then I suggest that you restart the Windows Installer on the computer and check if it works.

(a) click Start, click run, type services.msc in the Open text box, and then click OK.

(b) in the list of Services (Local) , right-click on Windows Installerand then click restart.

Windows install 4.5 Redistributable

  • 10 Windows Installer needs re install SoundMAX...

    Maybe it wasn't the smartest computer decision that I've ever done, but I have an old HP nw8440 Mobile Workstation that I installed Windows 8.1 on and then installed Windows 10 Technical Preview on. So far so good. But last night Microsoft installed upgrading of version newest and he needs to re - install SoundMAX inorder to give back me my audio. What drivers and do I use to thios OS, because HP has only drivers for this model of laptop until Windows Vista? If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

    Thank you

    Randy McPhie

    Hi, Randy:

    I would try the Vista audio driver from support of your PC and driver page.

    You may need to install manually if auto installation does not work.

    It's fun to experiment with operating systems.

    I currently hit a brick with the latest version W10 wall on my HP Elitebook 6930p.

    Everything worked great until the latest version is out.

    Now I get a Code of 12 on my reader (not enough system resources).

    I pointed out the error, as well as not being able to get rid of the lock screen, even if I set group policy to disable.

    When the next generation comes out, I'll give it another shot.

  • How long does take to install updates for Windows Vista after a new installation?

    Hello

    I'm trying to fix an old computer that I had lying around the House. She has Windows Vista installed.

    Today, I performed a clean installation of Windows using the recovery partition to try to make things a little more zippy.

    I know that Windows Vista is released some time ago, so I know there will be lots of updates for me to install. My question is how long approximately would it take to install all updates and get the operating system? It's a very slow computer at first.

    For any problem with the help of the recovery Partition that has been copied to the hard disk by the computer manufacturer, you must contact them.

    This recovery process is the manufacturer, not Microsoft.

    You never told us why you wanted to do a restore. If you had serious errors and the recovery process does not work, you will have hardware problems. BUT we're only guessing at this stage due to lack of information to help you.
