Error 1719: Unable to access Windows Installer Service when installing Office 2007

Asked By martyables 1170 points N/A Posted on - 06/22/2011

I always receive files created from Microsoft Office 2007, so I decided to remove my Microsoft Office 2003, it was remove successfully, but when I am on the process of installing Microsoft Office 2007, it was not successful, an error occurred, the error message pointing that the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed.

Error 1719. The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance.

What I did first is to restart my computer, because I haven't restarted the computer after the uninstall of Microsoft office 2003, when the computer booted from windows, I again try to re install Microsoft Office 2007, but same error happens, I could not blame on the installer since it was used a while ago to install and its done successfully.

Asking for help on my issue.
