My laptop is running Windows Vista Home premium (SP2) and the Windows Installer has failed thus I am unable to install or un-install applications like skye. As a result I am looking for a way to run skype while I am unable to install it normally. Is there a plugin or other add on that will meet my needs?

It may be a good idea to fix the Windows installer so you won't run into further problems.

To fix the problem first try to re-register the Windows installer service. To do this:

  • Type Windows+R to bring up the run box.
  • Open cmd by typing cmd' and press enter
  • In cmd type: msiexec /unregister
  • Then type msiexec /regserver
  • Type exit to exit cmd after that try to run the installer again.
