Cannot instal any adobe reader

Question

Hi there.
To the point.
I was trying to do my tax form when whole problem has started. First program asked to update adobe air to ver13 from 4. And it failed with a short message about error 0 and asking to try again with administrator rights.
I ve tried about 3-4 times with the same sign at the end. and due to that i wasnt able to update polish goverment tax plugin for adobe air, as it has ask for newer version of adobe air all the time.
But on their /ministry of finance/ website there is also a plugin for adobe reader allowing you to fill form in  reader and send it as ur tax return immeadetly. so i was trying to open various forms but adobe plugin for firefox wasnt able to open it. i ended up with document downloaded/opened in aprox. 5%-90% everytime.
there is a note about changing ur settings in firefox /from use adobe in firefox to use adobe reader/ but both of those never worked.
i was still able to open any other pdf on my pc /at least several those i ve tried to open were working/.
but i have decided to reinstall reader...
and after few tries i had to use adobe remover- finaly it was gone
in the meantime i have removed adobe air using microsoftfixit - normal ways were unable to remove it.
and now i m stuck with a note saying "Błąd 2203.Database: C:\Windows\Installer\1a82882.ipi. Cannot open database file. System error -2147287035." while i m trying to bring it back. Błąd = error.
no matter if outpost pro 9.0 is turned on or off, if i m using older or newest amd drivers, or trying to use full download version or the one from adobe website - it ends around 70% of the process with a note from above.
i ve tried both reader x/xi
its win7 with all updates on fujitsu ah lifebook ...
whats going on???

Answer 1

Hi again.
Yes i m aware that those 2 are totally different things made for different purposes, so  code used in both programs must be totally different. But for me, more important thing is that i cant use/install both of them when i need them (tax return in poland have to be send to proper tax office before 1st of may); they are both made by the same company so probably installer used in both works in similar fashion /air wasn't kind enough to show error code/ and it seems that i have some problems with that.
So maybe someone much wiser then me will be able to figured out whats going on or had a chance to see/know some sort of similar situation previously.
I'm not saying that all adobe products are broken /flash update went without problems/ but it might be something in my registry that is not able to receive some directions from that specific kind of installer /thats why i ve placed whole error message with error code/.
Other programs are fine - uninstalling firefox and installing 29 from mozilla installer went smooth...
Pat, i appreciate your effort to help, but  different version of basically the same installer doesn't change anything.
Program is already running, all files are unpacked and installing proces is already in motion. At aproximately 70% so nearly at the end that message appears and it ends telling me it wasnt done properly so i have to try again...
As i said before i have tried various sources to download it /6 so far to be exact/ and it always ends in the same manner.
Besides - just to let You know - Adobe still didn't make any official language pack /i m talking about polish one of course/ for version later then 11.0.1 so patching polish version to 11.0.6 will make it whole english .
edit: in an act of desperation i ve tried to install reader 9.5 but with the same ending....
during the weekend i ll try to dig depper in the registry - i think i wont screw it much more then it is right now... in the end i can always reinstall windows as TestScreen sugested
