Stimmt, hat aber einen WPS Bug und wurde von Microsoft wieder offline genommen. Eine verbesserte Version wird wohl in Kürze erhältlich sein.

Nun gibt es wieder eine neue Version

folgendes habe ich unter [url] http://www.msfn.org/comments.php?shownews=13094[/url] zu diesem Thema gelesen:

Quote:

Windows Installer 3.1 has been removed from Windows Update and Microsoft Download Center. Windows Installer 3.1 knowledge base article has been removed too. When you are installing a Microsoft Windows Installer (.msi) package, the installation process will fail silently if the installer tries to install a later version of a system file that the Windows File Protection (WFP) feature helps protect. When you examine the Windows Installer log or the Application log you will see Windows Installer Error 1931.

Before the release of Windows Installer version 3.1, a package that tried to install a later version of a WFP-protected file during a silent installation process could not install the file. However, the installation process would continue and would report as successful. With the release of Windows Installer 3.1, the behavior has changed. In version 3.1, the silent installation process does not succeed and then rolls back the installation if the silent installation process cannot install the WFP-protected file. WFP prevents applications from overwriting system files. Windows Installer cannot overwrite WFP-protected files.

To work around this issue, use one of the following methods:
If you are the end user of an installation package to install software on your computer, you will have to remove Windows Installer 3.1, and then revert Windows Installer to an earlier version.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. In Control Panel, start Add/Remove Programs.

2. By default, the Change or Remove Programs pane appears. This pane displays a list of installed programs. Make sure that the Show Updates check box is selected.

3. In the Currently installed programs and updates list, click to select Windows Installer 3.1 (KB893803), and then click Remove. Click Next.

4. You receive a message box that states that one or more programs on the computer may not correctly function if you remove the upgrade. Click Yes if you want to use this workaround.

5. You receive a message to restart the computer to complete the removal and the rollback. Click OK to restart the computer.

6. After the computer has restarted, Windows Installer is restored to the most recent earlier version.

If you are creating a Windows Installer package to install an application that you have created, it is recommended that you set a condition in the Windows Installer database that you create for your Setup project to prevent the WFP-protected components from installing on operating systems that have WFP. This method is the preferred workaround. A Windows Installer-based installation process should not try to update WFP-protected files.

Nun gibts auch noch einen Link auf die Deutsche Version
