Windows 7 already comes with the latest version of the Windows Installer:

Try to ensure that Windows Installer service is running, or force start it.

1.. Open Run, and type in services.msc then press Enter. Alternatively, go
to Control Panel -> Administrator Tools -> Services.

2.. Locate Windows Installer in the all install services listing.

3.. Verify that the Status is Started. If the Status column is blank,
right click on Windows Installer and select Start.

4.. If you get error trying to force start the Windows Installer service,
try to change the Startup Type to Automatic (default is Manual), and then
restart the computer.

Click Start
Type: CMD, from the results, right click CMD
Click 'Run as Administrator'
At the Command Prompt, type: sfc/scannow

This will check for any integrity violations

Restart your system

Hi Andre,

In the Services tab, Windows Installer row is blank. So I cannot start the service.
When I attempt to start it says.

Windows could not start the Windows Installer service on Local Computer.
Error 3: The system cannot find the path specified

I still ran  sfc/scannow and there were no integrity violations.

Will it work I copy the windows installer from any other machine ?
Any other approach

Thanks,
Pinky

Unregister Windows Installer, and then reregister Windows Installer. To do this, follow these steps:

1. On the "Start" menu, click "Run:.

2. In the "Open" box, type "msiexec /unreg", and then press ENTER.

3. On the "Start" menu, click "Run".

4. In the "Open" box, type "msiexec /regserver", and then press ENTER.

If this does not help the I would suggest to install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility and run that to remove the leftover Java installer files that may be causing issues with your current installation.

The other option is to do a System Restore before you started experiencing this problem.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your response. So I downloaded msiserver registry.

I sure would like to be able to find a download link for "Windows Installer 4.5 for 64 bit windows 7". I have nearly exhausted every effort to find one. I keep getting install crashes when I try and install my own gaming "retail" software from DVD.  I just re-installed Windows 7 a couple of weeks ago, and now I wish I had just formatted the whole hard drive and installed Windows XP.  Seems like it's the only "stable" version of Windows that's still out there from Microsoft.  There are way too many instances of not having the administrative privileges, or UAC bugging you to pieces all the time. And upgrading to Windows 8?  Tried that one too, and I hate it more than all of them combined. What's that old saying? "Keep it simple, stupid?".

I am having the same issue as you.  Some malevolent software removed my uninstaller tool and I need to reinstall it.  But, it's nowhere to be found as a download for Win 7 64 bit.

If you find it, please let me know?

Thanks!

Make a new user account (admin) and complete the install for all users. Try the user profile clean up tool?
