'status'.msi' I am NOT trying to inslall anything, and have to use the
taskbar to close it down.

SORRY < I DID PUT IN TO THE WRONG FORUM.....

Hi Guys

I have found the sulotion:

The Windows Installer service may disabled on the machine.

1. Go to "Start" -> "Run" , type "services.msc" and press on "Enter"
button.

2. Double-click on the service named "Windows Installer".

3. Check the value in the "Startup type:" field. If it's currently set
to "Disabled", then this is the

problem. Change it by selecting "Manual" from the drop-down box
