Error when installing VMM - %1 is not a valid Win32 application

Hi all
I'm attemping an install of SCVMM and despite installing all prerequisites I'm faced with the following when I launch the installer/disc and click 'Install':
"Error starting the Virtual Machine Manager Setup Wizard. %1 is not a valid Win32 application"
this error is the proceeded with another:
"Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable was not successfully installed. The selected Virtual Machine Manager feature cannot be installed without this prerequisite. Retry setup or manually install Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable
from Microsoft Download Center."
The latter package is already installed and I have re-downloaded and re-installed as well to no avail. All .Net packages are installed too.
I'm running a Windows Server 2012 R2 x64 virtual machine in a HyperV host (HyperV Server 2012) and have navigated the disc and launched the "SetupVMM.exe" located in the amd64 directory as I realise the above Win32 error points to a x86 application
- still no joy, the same errors!
I have tried the installer in a VMWare 2012 server with the same error and on a physical Windows 7 machine again same error so this makes me think I'm either missing something basic or have overlooked something seems the environment doesn't seem to make
a difference (although obviously not attempted a x86 environment but SCVMM is listed as x86 or x64).
This is for a lab test and personal experience before production so I realise running SCVMM within a virtual machine that is hosted on the same hypervisor isn't good practice - but it's a start :)
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Are you installing directly from the ISO? If so, you can try with a new ISO in case this is broken. Also make sure your machine is joined to the domain and that you are executing the setup in the context of a local administrator.
Eventually, try to copy the ISO to local disk and run setup from there.

  • When I try to open Firefox 4.0 I get an error message saying that it is not a valid Win32 Application. What do I do? I am using Windows XP Sp3

    I downloaded Firefox 4.o exe. When I tried to open it I got an error message stating that it was not a valid Win32 application. I am using windows XP SP3. How do I get it to open?

    [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] has steps that you can try. It sounds like you may have something that is hanging your browser on exit (probably an extension or a locked profile) and the steps on that page should help clear it up.

  • When running the install program it says-Not a valid win32 application

    My pc is a couple years old, finally got it up and running. After downloading the setup program and trying to run it, I get the "not a valid win32 application" message. I'm just not pc literate to know what that means. Please help.

    Have you had a look at this troubleshooting page? iTunes: Windows reports that iTunesSetup.exe is not a "valid Win32 application"

  • Error message iTunes64 Setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application.

    I've tried a few times to update my laptop with latest version of iTunes, even have uninstalled older version, and I just keep getting this message.  What am I doing wrong?  How do I fix it?  I have Windows 7, 64-bit system. 
    I wouldn't have even tried to update, but when I plugged in my new iphone 4S to download my itunes librarby to it, i was prompted to get the most recent version.  Now I don't have anything.  HELP!

    Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different (64-bit) PC. Copy the iTunes64Setup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunes64Setup.exe file.
    Does that go through any better for you?

  • Error Message - iTunesSetup[1].exe is not a valid Win32 application

    I'm having difficulty synching my iPod Shuffle as I keep getting the referenced message. Can anyone help me out?

    I solved my problem. After reading all the posts about problems with 7.6 I decided to download 7.5 instead. All I wanted to do was download music so needed 7.2 or higher. I found this link: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/11/07/direct-download-itunes-75-to-activate-i phone-anywhere-internationally/
    and did the direct download. Now I'm downloading music no problem!

  • ITunes set up gives an error message saying not a "valid win32 application"

    I am using Windows 7 and trying to download iTunes, but when I try to open the iTunes set up it gives an error message saying that it is not a "valid win32 application". It does the same for downloading quicktime. I have no idea what this means or what to do about it.

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • ITunesSetup.exe not a valid WIN32 Application????

    I've been deployed to Afghanistan for the past 13 months and have another 4 to go. I'm trying to download Itunes 7.0.2 and when I go to install it I get an error that reads ITunesSetup.exe is not a valid WIN32 application. What the **** does this mean. I only have a couple of days to get this fixed and my Ipod crashed with that RavMon virus lastnight. Anyone please help

    I had the very same problem with installing, and have no idea what it means. I've searched all over support, and asked the very same question about 4 months back.
    One odd thing about it, though. It didn't seem to make a difference when installing. The installer would get partially finished, and the error would appear. The installer would then start "rolling back actions" and when you would think it would close, it would start back up again. I have no idea why, but the installation completed normally, and my itunes works fine.
    If it doesn't work the first time, try it a couple more times. That's what happened with me.

  • WinQuickTimeMPEG2.Exe is not a valid Win32 Application

    I just tried to install QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component for Windows and when executing the following error is returned:
    "WinQuickTimeMPEG2.Exe is not a valid Win32 Application"
    This should run under Vista per the specifications (I am using Vista 64-Bit) so I am perplexed.
    Any help greatly apprecaited, and thanks.

    Hey there,
    Check out this link below. If is for iTunes, but you should be able to apply it to QuickTime as well. Its worth a shot. Hope it helps.

  • "22001904.exe is not a valid Win32 application."

    I just had to have my WinXP computer rebuilt when the motherboard failed. Now running Win7. Trying to reinstall Acrobat Standard 7.0. I have downloaded the file from the site, but Win7 won't install it. The error message is "22001904.exe is not a valid Win32 application." Can anyone help resolve this issue? Thank you!

    Where did you download it? At this point, you will have to install the AA 7 from Error: Activation Server Unavailable | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3.

  • TREX 7.0 Httpserver %1 is not a valid Win32 application

    Hi all Gurus.
    After installation I try to access the URL http://ifprxxxx:30205/TREXHttpServer/TrexIsapiExt.dll (this is a copy to clip board from TREXAdmin  Landscape configuration   Service).
    What I have tried so far
    <BR>
    1) First checked all permissions for user required to access the website u2013 as per installation docs and forum post at SDN.
    <BR>
    2) Added the ServiceSAP<SID> user to the local administrators groups u2013 now able to restart the IIS from TREXadmin application.
    <BR>
    3) (Not required) Added  Local group Everyone to security/permissions to the folder (TREX root folder) selected inherit all parent permissions and replace all child permissions from this folder.
    <BR>
    4) Create a local user (member of Everyone ) and replaced default internet user on the TREX website properties dir security u2013 user
    <BR>
    5) Found a SAP note (sapnote_0000684106 Microsoft runtime DLLs ) that describes missing DLLs on the 64 bit machine so I executed R3DLLinst.exe u2013 this adds all required dlls for TREX. u2013 still not working
    <BR>
    6) Found SAP Note (sapnote_0001031193 TREX 7.0 Web Server not working on 64bit ) implemented still not solution.
    <BR>
    7) Restarted all applications and still not working.After changing the browser response type u2013 (not friendly display) I get this response to the URL above
    u201C%1 is not a valid Win32 application.u201D This is also visible in the TREX trace files.

    Thanks for the reply, i did have a look at the link and did not help. Just also worth mentioning is that on the system drive for a 64 bit you will find the following folders.
    C:\Program Files (x86)
    and
    C:\Program Files
    i have also seen a mention about a folder containing a space " " in the folder name can cause this but it only relates to the folder as defined for a virtual directory ie C:\myWeps\app 1  where "app 1" has a space. The recommendation is that you should not have any spaces. ie
    E:\usr\sap\TXP\TRX02\exe\WebServer   as defined for TREX.
    I have this installed also on a 32 bit with no issue.
    Anyone else with some tips are well come

  • When i try to install Firefox 4 on my 64 bit Windows 7 Ultimate, error that it is not a valid win32 application

    When I downloaded the Firefox 4 installer and tried to install the software, an error message appeared that the application was not a valid win32 application. have deleted the file, re-downloaded it but with same effect. Therefore I cannot install Firefox 4

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
    See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

  • Error 'RecoveryMgr.exe is not a valid Win32 application' when trying to restore in Win7

    I really hope someone can help as this is driving me mad!
    System details - G62 Notebook running Windows 7
    The notebook crashed after a Windows update and wouldn't boot up.  I made it into the recovery manager and back my files before restoring to factory settings. 
    Since getting back in I am unable to get my files back.  I have tried through the recovery manager but it does not allow me to see the files on the dvd.  I have also tried through backup and restore but no joy there either.  When I click on RecoverMgr.exe on the dvd I get error 'RecoveryMgr.exe is not a valid Win32 application' and it won't open.
    I hope someone has managed to solve this before as I would love my files back.  All suggestions greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

    Thanks Mumbodog.  Unfortunately I have tried and the files won't copy.  Starting to think they are corrupt!  Have tried on a few different PC's but no luck.  Really annoyed   Any other suggestions?
