Yep, found those too. I cannot find this "Uninstall windows installer" anywhere. I also tried to download and install all of the files from Windows Installer link you've provided, but none of them seem to work on Win7. Afaik, Win7 uses Windows Installer 5, which I cannot find anywhere for download.– Ondrej SlintákCommented May 18, 2010 at 20:48

What version of Windows 7 are you using? And, did you install/upgrade Win7 yourself, or is this from an OEM (Dell, HP, Lenovo, etc)?– spongCommented May 18, 2010 at 21:32

I had originally Win Vista Ultimate, which I upgraded to Win7 Ultimate. All done by myself.– Ondrej SlintákCommented May 19, 2010 at 5:49

Have you had trouble installing any other programs besides VS2010/VS2008? I've upgraded my PC from Vista Ult to Win7 Ult 64-bit without a hitch, but I did a fresh install, not an upgrade. I do some development on it too with VS2008/VS2010. When it's something as important as a new OS, I always do fresh install over upgrade.– spongCommented May 19, 2010 at 14:35

I hadn't problems with anything until now. I even had installed VS2008 before, uninstalled it and when I tried to install VS2010, this happened. Only other weird thing that keeps happening from this point is crashing of AdAware, but don't know if it has something to do with it.– Ondrej SlintákCommented May 20, 2010 at 10:36

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
