Hi all!
I am experiencing errors 1316 and -1603. The knowledgebase and some posts in the installsite forums says to use MsiCleanup to get rid of the corrupted registry regarding that install.

But - the current MsiCleanup downloaded today from Microsoft (see MS KnowledgeBase Q238413) does not run on systems with MSI 2.0 and higher .

Does anybody know about updates or alternatives?

Thanks,
Jo

the SDK comes with a program called msizap which basically blows away all keys related to a product code, and it works fine for me with msi 2.0 and windows XP, you might want to try that.

Microsoft even wrote a nice wrapper for Msizap, called VIZACT (KB 240116). See
