The Windows Installer service could not be accessed' on Windows XP?
When you attempt to install a program that uses Windows Installer, such as
Office XP, you receive:
============================
"The Windows Installer service could not be accessed. This can occur if you
are running in safe
mode or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. "
This error is probably the result of a damaged registration service.
To resolve this issue:
1. Open a CMD.EXE prompt.
2. Type msiexec /unregister and press Enter.
3. Type msiexec /regserver and press Enter.
that is it .. As frustrating as it was it should be fixed now
=======================
Error 1719, 'The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed'?
When you run an MSI package, you receive:
Error 1719. The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. You may be
running in Safe mode or
Windows Installer may not be correctly installed.
To fix this problem:
1. Use the Registry Editor to navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSIServer
2. Double-click the ImagePath Value Name, a REG_EXPAND_SZ data type, and
verify that the data string is
%SystemRoot%\System32\msiexec.exe /V, where %SystemRoot% is the location of
your OS, like C:\Winnt or
C:\Windows.
3. Shutdown and restart in Safe mode by pressing F8 when the boot menu
displays.
4. After you log on, run msiexec /regserver.
5. Shutdown and restart normally.
============================
Maybe the Windows Installer service is disabled on the machine. From the
Start menu select Run and type
"services.msc".
Double-click on the service named "Windows Installer". Check the value in
the 'Startup type:' field. If it's currently set to "Disabled", then this is
the problem. Change it by selecting "Manual" from the drop-down box.
