A guide on how to resolve the error, When Windows Installer Service Cannot Be Accessed in Vista.
If you saw the error message "The windows Installer service could not access. This can occur if you run windows in Safe mode or windows Installer is not installed correctly. Contact your support personnel for assistance "is likely to have spent time trying to find a solution. Well, there are several things you can try to solve this problem and many of them work for a machine but not the other. The solution I found that worked for me is a registry fix. The only problem with the solution because I will propose and explain is that this is not always work with windows Vista and you need a good working copy of Vista for the registry key you need to fix the problem. I wish I could say with certainty whether it works every time but I can not. We also provide links to pages with Microsoft patches suggests that some people report to work, but had no success with them.
So first, what causes it? Most likely, the windows Installer has been damaged, if it fails, it will not be able to install / uninstall programs. Hence the error you get on the installation service is not available. The solution we propose is the following.
The solution that worked for me - Registry Fix
It is a pain because you need another computer running windows Vista which has an installation service work. Not everyone will have two Vista PCs at their disposal, but this solves the problem most frequently. You must do the following.
1. Open the folder in the working machine Vista (Start> Run> type regedit>)
2. Go to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet msiserver \ Services \
3. Right click on the name of the key and select Export
4. Backup to a USB flash drive, if you do not burn a CD / DVD
5. Now, open the registry on the Vista computer off and open the registry (Start> Run> type regedit>)
6. Click File> Import>> Locate the exported registry key>> Click Open
7. Once you import the key that will give you a message saying that it has completed
8. Reboot and try to see if they can install the software
9. If it worked you over, if not, go to # 2
This fixed my PC without any problem, the registry key and imported it after a reboot I was installing new programs. If you do not have a second copy of Vista for the registry key.
