agrijalva 0 Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Hi, I am trying to install new version of ESET Smart Security, and at the beginnig I got brellow error: "There is a problem whit this Windows Installer package, A DLL is required for this install complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor" I already try to reinstall MS Visual C and .Net packages with no luck. Any help will be appreciated.
Arakasi 549 Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 (edited) Check in Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services Find Windows Installer in the list of services and report back if it is running, or stopped. Did you reinstall .NET with no luck ? Or After reinstalling successfully you had no resolution? Also did you use the .NET Uninstaller tool that cleans out everything back to 1.0 and reinstall step by step : 1.0, 2.0 ,3.0, 3.5, 4.0. etc in sequence ? What did you use to reinstall runtimes ? When its all said and done, reference the following Microsoft KB article for troubleshooting similar issues like you are experiencing : hxxp://support.microsoft.com/kb/2642495 This may help you, and it may not, so please continue to check back for responses from others as well as ESET personnel ! Good luck. Edited September 29, 2013 by Arakasi
Administrators Marcos 5,458 Posted September 29, 2013 Administrators Posted September 29, 2013 Try reinstalling Windows Installer please.
F1_For_Help 0 Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 I too am having this problem with a new client. Does the Endpoint use .NET 3.5? Because that is the only .NET that isn't listed within Windows and when I try too Install it nothing happens.
Arakasi 549 Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 .net 3.5 is pretty popular. i would be surprised if eset was built on 4.0 but not 3.5. Best to install it if you dont have it....
F1_For_Help 0 Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 The clients system is running 4.0 and 4.5 as well.
Administrators Marcos 5,458 Posted October 21, 2013 Administrators Posted October 21, 2013 ESET's security products don't require .NET to be installed.
Arakasi 549 Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 ESET's security products don't require .NET to be installed. Awesome
SweX 871 Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 (edited) ESET's security products don't require .NET to be installed. And that's yet another thing I like a lot .NET is not something I like. Edited October 21, 2013 by SweX
ESET Insiders Podrska2NORT 5 Posted November 26, 2013 ESET Insiders Posted November 26, 2013 Yesterday, we had similar case:User with Windows 8 (not Windows 8.1!) tried to install ESET Smart Security (ESS) 7 from offline installer file (hxxp://download.eset.com/download/win/ess/ess_nt64_hrv.msi). Every time he tried, install was interrupted and he only got message:"There is problem with this installer package. A dll required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personell or package vendor". It was fresh install of Win 8. There was no other AV, there was nothing left from earlier installations of ESS, every service was there (like BFE ), ...We tried different approach - we downloaded ESET Online installer, and with this piece of software we managed to install ESS without glitch :-) Maybe our experience could help somebody.
Arakasi 549 Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 Thanks Pod, yes i have heard from Marcos that using the Online installer / Live installer, is a little easier on the computer then the MSI package. Thanks for adding that.
Arindam 0 Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Try giving C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Temp folder "Full Control" for the user or everyone. Hope it'll fix this issue.
