You may be surprised by some of the unnecessary stuff you find. Now, start the installation and check.ģ.Look in the STARTUP Tab of Taskmanager for any kind of installer that is set to load at Startup.ĭo the same thing in System Configuration (MSCONFIG) Services Tab.Ĭheck the box to hide all Microsoft services and check out what is left.( It's probably a 3rd Party, but maybe not). Go to process named msiexec.exe and click End Task. Now you’re good to go and can start a new installation.'Ģ.(very easy) Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Delete or right click on taskbar and click Start Task Manager). After your computer reboots, again open Computer Management (right-click on Computer and select Manage), open Windows Installer Properties, and change the Startup type back to Manual. In the Properties dialog, change Startup type to “Disabled”, click OK, and reboot your computer. Simply rebooting doesn’t stop the service. If you’re having the problem, the Windows Installer service is started, and the Stop button is disabled. 'Select Services, right click on Windows Installer in the list and select Properties. 'another installation is already in progress'ġ.
