Sorry, but none of the two methods work!!
In method 1, msiexec.exe cant be found in the location it
should be in... The method does not say what should be
done in this case... I thus assumed i must try method 2
In method 2, I followed the instuctions but got errors
when going to step 4:
ren msi.dll msi.old
ren msiexec.exe msiexec.old
ren msihnd.dll msihnd.old
Since these files are NOT found on my machine...
So what should i do?
TIA
Paul
