I already checked on the persissions, i am logged on as administartor, UAC turned off.
There was a bad uninstall of the product, had to run "Windows Installer Cleanup" because was receiving message "already installed" at setup.
Now i have this Error 1402. Something else i need to clean up before reinstallation?
Thank you for any advice.

RESOLVED!
(Error 1402 while attempting to re-install Office 2003 on Vista Home Professional)
This was resolved for me by running the "Fix-It" that resets registry security settings. It is at the following knowledgebase article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/313222
Then re-run the install

I had this same error after converting from Windows 7 to Windows 8. I had Pinnacle 14 and 15 installed, which I was told had to be reinstalled. Pinnacle 15 uninstalled and reinstalled fine. Pinnacle 14 would not uninstall. I then used Windows Installer Cleanup and it hung up at black DOS prompt window. I had a few minor issues with my Microsoft Office 2010 installation and decided to run the "repair" from the install disk. The installation proceeded almost to completion and then hit the Error 1402 problem and backed out of the Microsoft Office repair. I have not resolved this issue yet but will try the Fix It solution below.

Guys, I had the same issue while installing Office 2010 on Windows 7. Here is a link to the solution that worked for me:

This worked for me when I was having problems re-installing my Kodak AIO s/ware with the same errors. I would recommend editing the specific keys rather than the 'blanket' edit just in case!
Finally I solved this! I had the same problem with installation of Visual C++ 2010 redistributable x64. After running secedit I was able to complete installation.
Big thx Harry! KUDOS!

I purchased Fix-It and it did not solve my problem. I get a ERROR 1402 every time I try to install Inventor 2018 on my updated Windows 10 system. I have edited Registry and made sure all permissions are set to Administrator. In fact, since I accepted the new Windows 10 update, none of the all ready installed Autocad products on my system will no longer run are re-install. I have been running Autocad products under Windows for years and never had this type of problems before. What did Microsoft do to all of us users ??????? I need a fix from Microsoft to fix this problem.
