Please type the command exactly as i posted. It is a single line command. Copy the command i gave and paste it in the cmd window.

    Hi Aleena,

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Press the Windows key + R to open the run dialog

    Paste this into the box msiexec.exe /unreg and click OK.

    Wait a couple of seconds

    Press the Windows key + R to open the run dialog

    Paste this into the box msiexec.exe /regserver and click OK.

    Then check if you can ru that installer.

    If you still cannot run the installer, are you able to install other 3rd party software, and if so are they exe or msi installer files?

    Hi Aleena,

    1

    Did you include the exe part of that command?

    And did you then run this command even if the first one failed?

    msiexec.exe /regserver

    2

    Open the Settings App, then go to System - About, what edition (Home, Pro or S Mode) of Windows is installed on your PC?
