"The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation". For my particular instance it was fixed by changing a value in the registry under HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer Name - DisableMSI Type - REG_DWORD 0 = enable This was originally set to 1. Hope this helps out someone else who comes across this error. During my search I also found that there is a Windows Installer 2.0 Bug which sometimes throws up this message. If there is a trace of an application previously having been installed, and you are trying to re-install it, you may get the above error. You can fix this by going to the registry to: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\ Browse through and find your product. Delete the key relating to your product and this should allow the application to install. I haven't had the opportunity to check this out. But just in case someone is reading this and might need this resolution give it a go. Y. Post #: 1

Did'nt know abt the first key thanks for sharing the knowledge though. _____________________________ Regards, Bhupesh Mansukhani (in reply to y0u5uf) Post #: 2

A value of 1 means that Windows Installer is only enabled for managed deployments (read AD or SMS) http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368304(VS.85).aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa369784(VS.85).aspx It's normally used to secure desktops and in conjunction with the AlwaysInstallElevated setting/s http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa367561(VS.85).aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372395(VS.85).aspx Hope this helps, Rob.
