How to Install Windows Installer Service !

[Guest]

Hello all,

I've mistakenly removed from the registry key the windows installer stuff,
and now the event viewer shows the error regarding initializign the windows
installer service, and it say that further that "Cannot find the file
specified" (msiexec.exe) somewhere in the temp directory.

Can anyone tell me how to deal with it ? i shall be highly greatful, iam
running win2k advance server.


Thanks & Regards

A Win2K Server has system file protection, so msiexec.exe can't really be
totally gone. An exact message would be helpful for google's sake. If you
have msiexec.exe in [SystemFolder] the usual repair method is here:
