Also applying knowledge base artikel 315346 and resetting all the system rights with | secedit /configure /db %temp%\temp.db /cfg “%systemroot%\security\templates\setup security.inf” doesn´t help. I´ve tried to reset the system to a former system recovery point where I know it worked but it also doesn´t help. | Any idea what else I can do? | | Thanks, | Ulrich |

[Courtesy of Kelly Theriot, MS-MVP] Carey, I´ve just installed the installer fix, but it doesn´t help. And also CleanUp Utility is not the thing I´m looking for: at the moment I´m also not able to install a new programm that is using MSI. I´m not able to start the installer service manually or call msiexec from command line. I always get an 'access denied'. But thanks for your hints.

"The Windows Installer Service Could Not Be Accessed" Error Message http://support.microsoft.com/default...315353&Product =winxp Thanks, I´m aware of this article. I´ve tried the steps described in it and it doesn´t work: SYSTEM has full access on HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. But I cannot use msiexec.exe /unregister as it tells me: access denied. Is there a way to find out, which permission is violated when trying to execute msiexec? best regards, Ulrich -- Ulrich Kobsa Posted using XanaNews 1.16.3.1 |

problem with windows installer
There are may be installer issues due to inadequate permissions on the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\INTEL Open Regedit. Navigate to the registry key, select Security, and then click Permissions. Verify that the following permissions are set up for the registry key: Administrator Full Control Creator Owner Full Control Everyone Special Access (all but Create Link, Write DAC and Write Owner) System Full Control NOTE: You may not have all the above listings set up for your registry key. For those listed, ensure that the permissions are set as above. When modifying the registry key, check "Replace permissions on existing sub keys." -- Carey Frisch Microsoft MVP Windows XP - Shell/User Be Smart!
