I did a system restore but the only good restore was from earlier today and it still just opens notepad.
I am thinking it is just a matter of finding the correct file association that the windows installer can use to install that program but I am unable to find that! I have tried %windir%\system32\msi.dll version in Command prompt and it says that the system cannot execute the specified program I have searched event viewer and all that's in there is a warning and information of successful installs and uninstalls. I have tried changing C :\Windows\System32\msiexec.exe /V in regedit and that didn't work I have tried what is suggested in this forum I have tried numerous avenues to no avail (regedit,copy paste regedit, troubleshooters, sfc/scannow,Ĭommand prompt etc.) I tried to choose the file association of MSIexec in System32 and it just opens this Hello I am trying to get MSI installer to work and when I go to install anything that has the Windows Installer Package it opens Notepad in a scrambled message.
