Guest Lee Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 On windows 03 server I now get a message anytime I try to install/uninstall a program syaing that the windows installer could not be activated. I went throught the KB and follwed information on how to determine if the installer was installed corectly, and tried reregistering the installer but still get the same message. When I try to start the installer service manually I get this message "Could not start the windows installer service on local computer. Error 14007: The requested lookup key was not found in any active activation context." How can I fix the installer so that I can continue?
