I have a problem when uninstall my application in vista and win7, but not in XP. The error message is
" The following error occured on the file 'C:\Windows\system32\mfc40.dll"
Access is denied.
(0x5)
I made installer for my application using installscript project in Installshield 2010
if i choose button ignore in that error message, my application can uninstall completed.
I cannot found solution for solve that problem.
So I try to find another idea,can I bypass that error message using script in installshield, so when get that error,system will ignore that message automatically or the message doesn't appear? Can anyone help me about the script?
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like a UAC issue - you need special permissions to access files in system32.

I'm trying to do that for 3 days. And im tired of that. So wanted to ask you guys.
There is my log file http://codepaste.net/8nxdbb
and its the screen capture of my error.
Your log says:
Could not write value to
key\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser Helper
Objects{432dd630-7e03-4c97-9d62-b99f52df4fc2}. Verify that you have
sufficient access to that key
Make sure your machine is properly elevated to administrator privileges, and disable all antivirus software you are running. Cold restart your machine before making the next installation attempt.

Microsoft Web Platform Installer couldn't find the product you tried to install. Either the link you clicked is incorrect or you may be overriding you feed with a different feed
The link for Microsoft webmatrix does not work. When the web installer tries to download and error occurs:
Microsoft Web Platform Installer couldn't find the product you tried to install. Either the link you clicked is incorrect or you may be overriding you feed with a different feed.
I get this error when I try to install the Microsoft webmatrix [www.microsoft.com/web/webmatrix/] on my Window 7 OS.
Can anyone help!
Could you post your log file from %localappdata%\microsoft\web platform installer\logs\webpi - try to find the log file that matches up date/time with when you clicked the link and got the error message - thanks

Attempted to install PHP 5.2.17 on an IIS7 / 2008 standard 64bit on a VM running on Azure from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/web/platform/phponwindows.aspx
The download link gave me the executable PHP52.exe.
http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/install.aspx?appid=PHP52
Clicking on the exe the Web Platform Installer opened and I received the message:
Microsoft Web Platform Installer couldn't find the product you tried to install
as displayed in your screenshot above.
So selected:
http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/install.aspx?appid=PHP53
This downloads the exe PHP53.exe (i.e php 5.3.5).
When running this exe the message is no loner displayed and my installation can continue.
Hope that helps someone

We have few windows services developed using .Net framework 1.1(VS2003).For each windows service an msi installer(set up project) is created to make installation easier.These installers are able to install windows services successfully in windows XP.But these installers unable to install windows service in WIN7 though I have admin privileges on the machine in which I am trying install them.While I am trying to install the windows service in win7, Through msi installer,installation is progressing till 90%.After that it is neither completing nor throwing an error.I am unable to understand what the problem is.
I tried following ways.
1.Opened cmd window in admin mode and tried to execute the msi with the command msiexec -i --Din't work
2.Right clicked on the actual exe(windows service exe) file and tried to run it in admin mode.--Din't work
3.Changed the UAC to never notify, restarted the machine and then tried to install--Din't work
4.Right clicked on both exe and msi and open their properties and changed the compatibility to lower version of windows and tried to install--Din't work
One thing I have noticed is that for all the custom actions of our windows service installer, primary output of our main project(exe) was given as input.I build the msi installer by removing all the custom actions.Then i tried to install it in win7.Then it was installed.But during the installation system not prompted for account details (which is the actual case while installing windows service) and also the service was not appeared in services manager window.
I spent somuch time to identify the cause and resolution.But I dint find any posts on this issue.I suspect that the problem is with custom actions.But not sure.If the problem is with custom actions please let me know how to overcome it.
Please provide a resolution for this issue or share me if there are any links which talks about this.
FWIW, .NET 1.1 isn't supported on Win7. Also I'm guessing you are using InstallUtil custom actions to drive the setup of your .NET Windows Service. These are very fragile and you can eliminate all those brittle points by refactoring and using the ServiceInstall ServiceControl tables in MSI.
I'm trying to upgrade from ASP.NET MVC3 RC to RTM? I can't get past upgrading the vs10-kb2483190-x86.exe installer. I get this error in the error log:
Do I need to uninstall the Windows Phone SDK first? Should I hunt for GUIDs in the registry?
The installer appears to launch devenv.exe behind the scenes. I decided to launch VS2010 to see if it would "unlock" something. After it launched, I closed it and the installer started progressing.
Actually, it did work - I just ran for the second time...
When you run .msp, it pops a prompt that "the network resource for Visual Studio installation files is not available". Once you update the location of vs_setup.msi everything else works fine. I didn't have to run MSIs in sequence as the post suggests - once location was correct, I just ran MVC3 installation executable, and everything got installed fine.
It looks like platform installer and MVC3 setup just fail and, worse, swallow the root cause problem.
I finally gave up and reinstalled windows when I got a new CPU/Motherboard. Took care of it, not that I suggest this solution for everyone.

I have a VS 2005 install set, which when executed seems to run OK however right at the end of the process it responds with the error message:
The source '' is not registered on machine '.' or you do not have write access to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog registry key.
At which point it backs out of the install. The code in the install pack has had some alteration to it, but nothing that I would expect this sort of behaviour for.
Can anyone assist? Has anyone out there come across this situation before?
Kind Regards
Paul J.
The error indicates that the installation cannot create a a logsource in the Windows Eventlog. Does the installing user have Administrator permissions? If you are running Vista or Windows 7 you could try to run the installation with administrative permissions (right-click, run as administrator)
