Cannot uninstall SCVMM 2012 R2 -MSI Error 1603?

Hard Disk where SCVMM 2012 R2 was installed, died.  Was able to recover almost all of the disk, however SCVMM would run anymore...No repair option!  So decided to uninstall it...no uninstall either except to run the setup from the DVD.... 
Won't uninstall - keeps getting error 1603?
Ideas?

  • Cannot Install SCVMM 2012 - Hardware Management Error (WinRM)

    Hello All,
    I am trying to install SCVMM 2012 on Server 2008 R2, However, when installing, I met the following error:
    I tried using the command "winrm qc" but "Access is Denied" error is shown.
    My account is a domain user which has been given local administrator privilege.
    Any help is appreciated

    Brian,
    Why we can't run the SCVMM installation using Local administrator account ?
    From the Tech net : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg610656.aspx
    To start the Virtual Machine Manager Setup Wizard, on your installation media, right-click
    setup.exe, and then click Run as administrator.
    For the WinRM errors , isn't this something to do with UAC , Can you use an elevated command prompt and run  "winrm qc" if you still get the access denied error , please check that administrator account has a non blank password
    WinRM needs to be fixed prior to go for VMM installation

  • I cannot uninstall or install itunes.  error is 'trying to use on a network resource that is unavailable'.  I cannot find a pth to any folders containning installation package itunes.msi.  Unable to download itunes since 2 updates ago and crashed com

    I cannot uninstall or install itunes.  error is 'trying to use on a network resource that is unavailable'.  I cannot find  path to any folders containing installation package itunes.msi.  Unable to download itunes since 2 updates ago and crashed computer.    Windows update as suggested in some posts does not assist either.
    Can anyone assist me?  Thank you so much

    Should the advice above not fix things for you...
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • Can't install or uninstall itunes itunes 64.msi error

    Can't install or uninstall itunes itunes 64.msi error - does anyone have a fix?
    The itunes64.msi cannot be found in the temp sub-folder it was originally installed in.
    I believe the System Mechanic cleaned out the temp files and now I can't install or uninstall itunes.
    I tried to manually recreate the folder that the itunes64 setup is looking for and manually copied the 11.0.1 version of all the .msi files included in the installation, but, the installation still cannot find the itunes64.msi.

    I was able to solve my problem by following all the directions at the following Apple site - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926?viewlocale=en_US
    I was not able to remove the iTunes program using Add/Remove Programs from the Control Panel; however, that didn't seem to matter. I removed the directories and used the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. I reinstalled iTunes Ver 8.1.1.10 with no problems. I'm sticking with this version for the time being.

  • Upgrading Adobe Reader 10.0.0 to 10.0.1 Results in MSI Error 1603

    Hello Adobe Forum! I'm at a loss and don't know what to do.
    My organization deployed Adobe Reader through as part of our baseline image. We did not deploy through Group Policy. We have multiple methods of software deployment (CA ITCM, PDQ Deploy, Promisec). I've tried all three of these methods and each time they fail with the 1603 error. When I run the command manually, it works perfectly. Strangely enough...one or two out of several hundred will install correctly.
    msiexec.exe /p "AdbeRdrUpd1001_Tier1.msp" /qb
    I've also tried this with the same results.
    msiexec /p AdbeRdrUpd1001_Tier1.msp /quiet REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=omus
    I know there is no MSI available, only the MSP. I have no clue what is wrong. When I deploy, I use my network credentials (domain admin).
    Can someone direct me in the right direction and perhaps what I can do to get this software to deploy correctly?

    All I can do is point you to the Admin Guide: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/enterprise-administration-acrobat-products.html

    Trying to upgrade to VMM 2012 R2. As per http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn469607.aspx I try to uninstall VMM 2012 SP1 first. With no luck though.

    Hi all

    Try this  Lessmsi  method:

    Be aware that if you want to install the currently latest 7.3.0.101 version, then you should use SkypeSetup_7.3.0.101.msi file in order to extract Skype.exe and Login.cab files.
    SkypeSetup_7.2.0.103.msi file can be downloaded using this link:

    Don't run this installer, but only use the downloaded SkypeSetup_7.3.0.101.msi file to extract the Skype.exe and Login.cab files.

  • Photoshop CC & InDesign CC deployment error 1603 (connection problem)

    Hi,
    I'm a member of the packaging team and I prepare packages with Photoshop CC and InDesign CC for the client.
    I have a question. During installation I get an MSI error 1603. I checked that the installer is trying to connect to the Internet.
    If the client's environment have full access to the Internet or a network card is switched off then installation runs properly.
    If the user has limited access to the internet via GPO then MSI installation shows the 1603 error associated with Custom Action "CADeploy".
    Is there any solution to this problem ?

    I am a Windows user and don't know the process with a Mac OS, but whatever process you use for other programs is the way to go.
    After uninstalling, you should use the Cleaning tool.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
    Restart your computer, and open the CC Desktop App Mgr.  If it thinks Photoshop is still installed, sign out and back in again.
    Then reinstall Photoshop.
    Good luck.

  • Migration from SCVMM 2012 SP1 to R2 - New Hardware

    We want to migrate our existing SCVMM 2012 SP1 to new hardware and then bump it to SCVMM 2012 R2. Our database is on a separate SQL 2008 R2 server. This is what we envision doing to get there:
    Uninstall SCVMM 2012 SP1 on existing server and retaining the database
    Backup and restore the SCVMM database to a new SQL 2012 server
    Install SCVMM 2012 R2 on new hardware and connect to existing database on SQL 2012 server
    Does this sound doable? Will we lose anything in the move? Maybe our existing libraries?

    Upgrading on a remote computer
    Upgrading from VMM in System Center 2012 SP1 on one computer to VMM in System Center 2012 R2 on a different computer is not supported when data is retained from the original installation, and the following configurations apply:
    The original installation uses Windows DPAPI. This is the default setting if you did not configure distributed key management during setup.
    The VMM management server is configured to use any of the following encrypted values or settings:
    Application settings (encrypted value)
    Service setting (encrypted value)
    SQL Server deployment (product key)
    Web deploy package (encryption password)
    "Personally" and this is a pain, I would:
    Uninstall VMM SP1 and retain the DB.
    Re-install the exisiting hardware with Server 2012
    Re-install VMM SP1 and reconnect to existing DB
    Upgrade to VMM 2012 R2
    Uninstall and retain the DB
    Restore the DB on new SQL 2012 server
    Reinstall VMM 2012 R2 on new Server and reconnect to existing DB
    Note that you will probably get access denied messages once running on the new VMM server due to the SID change.  You will need to re-associate hosts and libraries.
    I'm still not saying this is a supported method, but it's likely it's more supported as it's essentially following DR principals.

  • Cannot upgrade iTunes because cannot uninstall itunes 9.0.2.25. Error: The installation source for this product is unavailable. The file c:/... itunes.msi is not a valid installation package for itunes.

    I also get the error. "Cannot uninstall the older version of iTunes. Contact your technical support group."
    How do I download the itunes.msi for iTunes 9.0.2.25 so that I can remove this phantom and unfunctioning program and then hopefully upgrade to the latest version of iTunes 10.5?
    Thanks for your ideas.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    Any help would be appreciated. 

    I had the same problem in my environment.
    Here are the steps how i did solve this issue
    Since VMM 2012 R2 Requires ADK 8.1 and this requires SQL 2012 Express.
    In order SQL Server 2012 to be installed successfully .Net Frame Work 3.5 feature on Windows Server has to be enabled first, in this case it is not not being installed by ADK Installation wizard as a result SQL service fails to start, which results on VMM
    installation to fail.
    Please try to enable .Net Frame Work 3.5 feature on Windows Server 2012 R2 before you install ADK 8.1
