Windows Module Installer stopped and was closed

My computer tried to do update KB976264, KB979306, 976662 KB and KB979099 and after the start-up of the plant and about 23%, it stops and I get the installer stopped and has been closed error. I checked to make sure "Module of Windows Installer Service" is in "manual mode". I tried a clean boot and also a restoration of systems without success. I erased the history and cookies. I disabled the firewall and antivirus.

I'm looking for any other suggestions get my updates of work as I am running out of ideas?

Thank you

Well, after getting a MS help without success, I decided to upgrade to Windows 7. I had thought about it in any case if this just pushed nme along.

Thanks for your help!

  • Installer of Modules of Windows has stopped working and was closed

    Hello
    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite (running Vista Home Premium) that I bought about two months ago.  When he tries to run updates, he routinely gets through a few and then up pops the message "Windows Modules Installer has stopped working and was closed."  I have already reinstalled Windows Updates and Microsoft Updates, nothing helps.  Recently, she was immobilized on the KB958623 update, so I tried to install that separately, but the same message popped up and it did not work.
    Help?
    Thank you!

    Greetings mollypopsicle,

    I see that we have always had problems with this update.  This leaves me with the question about the possibility of fi computer update auto is damaged during download.

    I would like to have you create a folder on your desktop.  Right-click on an empty spot on the desktop / new / file - name of the folder KB958623.

    If you have a download manager, please use it to download the KB958623 update from this Web site

    http://catalog.update.Microsoft.com/v7/site/search.aspx?q=958623%20

    Make sure you use the version of Windows Vista that applies to your system.

    Once the download is complete and before running the update

    1. Restart your system in safe mode with networking, as described in the above post from Brian.
    2. Once the system is booted in safe mode with network, run the update from the file that is downloaded on.
    3. If this does not properly complete, were there a pop-up Windows indicating that an error?  If so, what were these errors?
    4. Maybe it's that the error you receive is that this update does not apply to your system.  If so, this update can be hidden in your list of updates.

    Here is a link on how to hide the update

    http://windowshelp.Microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/5a319824-5cb5-493d-9151-9a97d0f565b61033.mspx#EZH

    Select only the I'm getting offered an update from Windows that I don't want.

    However, before you do, check which version of Windows Vista is ran - home edition, Premium, Ultimate, it is 32-bit or 64-bit edition.  Also, if there is an error of execution of this manual update mode safe mode with networking, include this information in the forum.

    Thank you and continue to keep us informed of the State of this update.

    Hi guys

    I had installed up-to-date antivirus software and my problem seems to start after an update from Microsoft. Do a search on the web and you will see similar stories. I spent so much time trying to solve this I think it's better just to do a re-install. Certainly not the resolution I had hoped, but appreciate this type of questions are almost impossible to solve the problems through intermittent mail such messages.

  • Driver Installation module stopped working and was closed

    Hi, can someone help with this error.

    I am trying to install different drivers, but I get this problem "driver installation module stopped working and was closed" and as such, I can not install any drivers...

    Is there a round work or a solution to this?

    See you soon

    • What were the changes made before the problem occurred?

    I suggest you try to put your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

  • Desktop Window Manager has stopped working and was closed

    One of our machines (HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC running Windows Vista x 64) will receive the error "Desktop Window Manager has stopped working and was closed" with lots of close error. He reappears (as well as all windows flasher to non-aero, then back to aero) in a few minutes, spends about 5 times per hour.

    I did some research on this and have already taken the following measures without a bit of luck:

    1 run the command chkdsk / SFC scan - nothing found via chkdsk, SFC found some issues fixed, and some, it did not set. Them that it solves not all related to Windows Sidebar, which I do not / does not start.

    2. put updated drivers for ATI Radeon 3200HD - this had a lot of new questions. Installing caused newer drivers ATI catalyst to no longer work with errors during installation and popup errors at startup. After trying several solutions workaround to try to get installed it, I ended up coming back to the driver that came with the laptop, that are properly installed and working without error. I am skeptical of update of this stable driver as a solution to the dwm.exe error.

    3. this problem just started yesterday, that occur with not a lot of changes. Other than updates of windows (I think that .NET framework and a few other updates installed), I replaced NOD32 antivirus with Bitdefender antivirus. The system was stable with bitdefender for about 2 weeks, so I'm not convinced that this program is causing the error.

    4. the event viewer shows the following:

    Failing application Dwm.exe, version 6.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e02696, failed module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6002.18881, time stamp 0x51da3d16, exception code 0 x 80000003, offset 0x00000000000461f0, process id 0 x 124 error, start the application time 0x01cea0365a457adc.

    Offset, process id and start on time all vary, but there are a lot of these application errors in the viewer all screaming Dwm.exe like the failing application.

    What should be my next course of action?

    You do not receive an error but a caveat. NTStatus results (the set of codes execption used by ntdll - the failed module) begin to 0 for no error, 4 for information (you should never see this), 8 for putting guard and C for error.

    It's your specific error.

    //
    MessageId: STATUS_BREAKPOINT
    //
    MessageText:

    Problem is, you shouldn't have breakpoints. Breakpoints are set by debuggers and stop the execution of the program to the State of the program can be examined. There should be no breakpoints in a retail system. More breakpoints are inserted into memory during execution of the program in a debugger. They tend not to do in the actual file.

    So here are two assumptions, either you have no exit code, IE test code (driver?). Or you have a running program that behaves like a debugger (which is suspect).

    Each of the three towers of programs, services, and drivers in increasing amounts. So restrict the possible culprits.

  • Receive the error "Windows Media Center Receiver Service stopped working and was closed" after the video card replaced

    I have a HP computer with Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit) Service Pack 2.  He has a VISX PureTV tuner card and already had an NVidia GeForce 8400 graphics card.  This Setup has worked well for 2.5 years until what the graphics card died last week.  It has been replaced with an ATI Radeon HD3450 and both all Windows updates have made current.  Since that time, the TV tuner did not work.

    When you sign in to an account, it gives the error message "Windows Media Center Receiver Service stopped working and was closed".  I can use Media Center to watch the recorded video before, but if I try to watch live TV he hangs up and close Media Center.  If I try to configure the TV connection in Media Center it tells me that there is no tuner card.

    I looked at the map and see no problem and I tried it back in place.  He has the most up to date drivers (so does the new Radeon graphics btw).  I tried "Uninstall" in the Manager of devices and then put it back, but it was not good.

    "Windows Media Center Receiver Service Stopped Working and was closed" I tried all the fixes I've seen this error.

    I tried all the things I saw here and elsewhere related to this issue.  I did a "clean boot" with all non-Windows services and the disabled startup process.  He always did the same thing and gave the same mistakes.  It seems to be linked to a Windows service, and I hesitate to begin deactivation to track down.

    I ran 'sfc' in mode 'cmd' and he found no problem and none of the files to be fixed or could not fix.

    In the list of services, I changed the login for "Windows Media Center Receiver Service" to "Local System account", Local Service, Network Service and individual accounts, but no permits.

    I'm afraid I'm at the point of having to reload the Vista, but I don't know how to do this and want to avoid at all costs.  I don't have the recovery disks and software.  Is this enough?  Can I reinstall from the recovery disks without wiping everything aft of the configuratiion with which it was delivered?  I guess personal files will be OK (although I don't know this for sure), but I'm afraid I'll have to reinstall other applications, my family has developed over time and perhaps lose the media protected by DRM licenses.

    Someone has encountered anything like this or have any suggestions?

    Well, I finally stumbled into the solution.  It was caused by a conflict with another application.

    A few weeks before the card failure I had installed a program called video capture Replay Video Capture that I had bought a few months ago and never used.  However, at this time where everything including the TV tuner and Media Center worked well that's why I associate the problem with this software.  The problem comes after the system is rebooted the first time after installation.  In my case, it has not been rebooted until a few weeks later as part of the recovery of the fault of the graphics card.  Suddenly, the TV tuner did not work and I get the error messages mentioned in this title of the thread.

    I was at the end of my rope with this and was just to clean your system to do a reformat and reinstallation.  I uninstalled the Replay Videa Capture program to move it to another computer, and when you restart the computer I noticed that the error message disappeared.  Of course I went to the Media Center and could set up my TV tuner card and watch television.

    Looking for some info on this conflict, I found the following. (http://forum.applian.com//showthread.php?847-Conflicts-between-RVC-and-XP-Media-Center-OS&s=c0aec9897b51d550c47b919e73e59bfc)  It is difficult to say who is at fault in the present.  I'm sure that Microsoft accuses Applian for the encoder to mpeg (mcm2ve.ax) used in Replay Video Capture, while Applian says that the problem is a Windows process (ehrec.exe) that works all the time, hogging the tuner on the system device.  According to Applian other products similar to theirs have this conflict as well due to the process of Windows.

    Fortunately, there is a solution in this case.  Applian has released a new version of Replay Video Capture (version 4.2) that uses a different mpeg encoder and eliminates the problem.  Given the surprising lack of info about it on the Microsoft Web site, I wonder how many other people with this unresolved issue dealing with the same thing as me.  If you're like me and you don't usually need to reboot your PC for a few weeks at a time, you may never know to associate the problem with the application.  What a waste countless hours trying to diagnose, and most disconcerting, that's what I was about to go through a reformat and reinstall because of this.

    Thought I'd post here my problem resolution in the hope that it might help someone else.
