I don’t have an installer service in ‘services’ or in the registries; where did it go and how do I replace it? I’ve tried MS Fix it, and everything else including everything that you’ve written but I either run up against the failure to access or access denied, in my repair/replacement efforts. I even disabled Avast thinking that it somehow might be the problem; nothing.

oh my good ness,did a google research on this nasty erro and came upon your website and method 4 worked,just for people who dont know how to zip a file,make sure your window is fully open and then click extract first and then follow instructions if not it wont work,well anyhow after i did that my computer refreshed and found 20 window updates this nasty erro was preventing me from receiving any windwo updates,nice huh,thank you so much

Method 4 edit. I fixed mine through this method but when doing merge, it just opened with notepad and did nothing. Do this. open regedit and click file> import> and then browse to the file you downloaded in method 4 and import it. No more failed program installs and no more failed windows updates. I works :)
