I recently re-formatted and re-installed XP with SP2. I was then able to get
a few updates including the installer program, but now all I get is "failed"
then shows that it was "cancelled". I have noticed many others with a
similar problem posted here and other places, but no solutions that work for
my computer. I included my LOG since it seems that is the first question
from those in the "know".
I did have a problem with the Windows Installer program and did refer to
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555175/en-us
Method 1 fixed my Windows Installer issue. I then tried re-installing
Windows Installer v2 and that did not solve this "cancelled" problem. I was
not able to "uninstall" any updates using the Windows Installer Clean Up
program per Method 3. My Installer Service was already setup correctly
(Method 4). I emptied all my user and temp folders per Method 5, and no
luck. I attempted to try the other Methods listed, but the instructions
either did not apply to XP or I could not figure it out.
Thanks for any help on this.
