Garrulous Glaahk Android Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 I just got the demo, and went to install it and found out I could not. For some reason I deleted the windows installer service a while ago, and I can not re-install it. Is there any way to get around this?

Tenderfoot Thahd muhju Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 In case you've actually uninstalled it somehow, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315346/en-us In case you've just disabled it, go: start -> settings -> control panel -> administrative tools -> services -> right click on windows installer -> properties -> set it to automatic startup Hope that helps.

Articulate Vlish kenny2011 Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 If that doesn't help jsut download "winrar", it is very simple, and even though it says you are supposed to buy it, there is no penalty that I have seen if you don't.

WinRAR wouldn't help in this case. It's a compression utility, not an installer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understated Ur-Drakon Tyranicus Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 It was most likely caused by malware of some sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
