Windows Installer is hanging on install/uninstall of anything using
its function. Even trying to install Windows Installer Cleanup hangs up.
I have already run RegistryFix and it had no effect.
I checked to make sure the Windows Installer service is running and it
is.
However any software that uses InstallShield or Wise installer goes in
without problem.
I also looked at Event Viewer hoping to find something but nothing
there looked like usable information concerning why Windows Installer
is hanging up.
Configuration info - Dell C521 with 1GB RAM, 80GB SATA hard drive
running Vista Home Premium and all relevant updates are installed.
It seems to me like another Windows Installer 4 problem but if anyone
has any ideas about alternate possibilities I'm all ears. (And that's
a pretty weird visual). Also if it is a Windows Installer problem, how
do I check for Windows Installer being all there and how to fix it if
it's not.
