Photosmart B110a HP software won't install on windows 7 starter

I have a Photosmart B110a 3 year old wireless printer that is working on my home pc running windows 7 professional, but after buying a new notebook running windows 7 starter I can not install the HP software either from the install cd that came with the printer or by downloading the software from the HP website!
I have done a fresh install of windows 7 starter & have switched off antivirus & firewall but I still can't install HP software to install the printer.
(I was told I would have to pay £18 for technical support to get YOUR software to work my notebook, I don't see why I need to pay money for something that is clearly an issue with YOUR software?)
I don't have any problems installing any other software for any other software provider on my notebook either from the discs or by downloading, so the issue is isolated to just YOUR software!
When I try and left click on the setup exe logo when the disk spins up the cd window disappears and nothing happens, no software in installed! Tried copying the contents to my notebook and try to manually install but that does not work either!
Downloading the software from HP website results in the software unzipping/unpacking but then nothing happens, install window disappears! Yes I have switched off & even tried uninstalling my antivirus & firewall without any success! HELP!!!!!!

Have you already tried running the install wizard? This will help resolve some potential problems.

Photosmart C4680 software won't install in Windows 8.1 64 bit

Photosmart C4680 software won't install in Windows 8.1 64 bit. The installer starts, then never does anything. I see it in Task Manager consuming resources forever:
Here is the version I am trying to run:

Hey!
Sorry for the drop-off from the thread, I must have missed your response, I apologize.
When it comes down to the actual installation and issues revolving around that; it is no longer an HP printer issue. It is an MSI (Microsoft Installer) issue.
For MSI support, I recommend for you to call Microsoft Technical Support at 1-800-642-7676.
Best of luck and let me know the outcome if you think of it. Have a great day!

OfficeJet 5610 software won't install on Windows 7

I have an OfficeJet 5610 and am running Windows 7 x64. Whenever I attempt to install the software for my printer the installer vanishes part way through. I got as far as choosing which software componants I wanted to install, hit next, and then it's gone.

Alright. These next few steps are a little more complicated but I think you should be able to follow along. Id like to try to stop all the TSR programs running in the background. Heres how we can do it.
On the Windows taskbar, click the Windows icon ( ), type msconfig in the Search Programs and Files box, and then press Enter . The User Account Control window opens.
Click Continue . The System Configuration window opens.
Click the General tab, and then click Selective Startup check box.
If there is a checkmark next to Load Startup items, click the checkmark to remove it.
Click the Services tab, and then click Hide All Microsoft Services (at the bottom of the Services tab).
Click Disable All , and then click Ok .
Click Restart . The computer automatically restarts.
Post back with your results so I can make sure we get this issue resolved!

HP OfficeJet J6410 won't install under Windows 8

Hello to you all,
Two days ago, I bought a new notebook for my daughter. She needs it for her study. It's the HP Pavilion TouchSmart 11-e000ed.
Again, just like the situation I wrote about before in this topic over here (link: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Install-Setup/Officet-J6410-won-t-install-under-Wind... the OfficeJet Printer J6410 won't install under Windows 8.
Now this is what I've done before the problem occured:
- I made a username and password for her,
- I activated Windows 8,
- I made a recovery-point,
- I took my external DVD writer, installed Office 2007 Home and Student for her (o.k, I know it's old, but it's very o.k - and legal copy -. for her study, used it myself as well and still do, and never any complaints about that one), and activated it,
After that and restarting the notebook;
- the notebeek activated USB 2.0 (it does that automatically at first use),
- installed XPS2OneNote (to use for Office OneNote 2007),
- installed SaveAsPDF&XPS,
- removed Norton Internet Security (I never use it, I use something else for that purpose, but was - and still am - planning to install that on a later moment),
- I made sure the notebook can access the server we have here at home, and made a share for her.
After that I used the OJ_AIO_J6400_Full_Win_WW_140_408.exe file (Dutch, but I'll translate the text in English).
From this point on I will describe as precisely as possible what happened
- - the program extracts some files, no problems there,
- - when the first screen appears, I pressed 'Install',
- - a bar appears, and after that another pop-up that says tha you must allow all HP processes. I pressed 'Next',
- - system is controlled, and after that one must agree with the licence agreements. I checked the box, and pressed 'Next',
- - the system is prepared for installation and - yes! - there it comes... an error message.
The error message says:
C:\users\<username of my daughter.\AppData\Local\Temp\7zS0FF0\Setup\de..
Please not that this is a different message than the one I got before, as I described in my posting before, (link again: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Install-Setup/Officet-J6410-won-t-install-under-Wind...
Nonehteless, I assumed that, as before, the problem was with the C+++, just like before. That is why I made the following steps:
- I used the OJ_AIO_J6400_140_408_Scrubber program, run L4 4 times.
- I looked for the KB2565063 update, but it isn't there anymore. So, instead, I ran all updates there are until the system said that there are no updates to be found,
- After that I took the old installation disk that came with the OfficeJet J6410 printer, and (tried to) ran hpsetup.exe. It doesn't do a thing! Literally!!
- after that I tried to run the the OJ_AIO_J6400_Full_Win_WW_140_408.exe file again. No success. I got the same error as before (see above, the ..\7zS0FF0\Setup\de.. thing again.
So, what to do now?
Anyone got some helpfull tips for me? I would really appreciate your feedback / help.
Thank you in advance,

Hi again,
No, it didn't work. And, the solution you offered neither.
This is what I've done.
After downloading the OJ_AIO_J6400_Full_Win_WW_140_408-4.exe file, I tried to install it.
It failed. I got an error message similar to the one before.
'C:\users\<username of my daughter.\AppData\Local\Temp\7zS57DB\Setup\de.'
I tried to ran the scrubber again, and the CCCUninstaller and tried again.
Same error message occured.
After that I tried to look for the KB2565063 file again. Found it this time and ran the vcredist_x64 file.
I rebooted the system, tried to run the OJ_AIO_J6400_Full_Win_WW_140_408-4.exe file again.
Same error message ocuured.
So, after that, I followed the steps you proposed.
Step 2 - searching for hpoins*.dat --> no results found.
Step 3 - searching for hpwins*.dat --> no results found.
Step 4 - I ran the Run Dialog box and typed MSIEXEC /REGSERVER (with AND without the extra space between ('MSIEXEC /REGSERVER') in the Dialog Box and pressed Ok.
Got an error message in Dutch:
'Kan het bestand MSIEXEC /REGSERVER niet vinden. Controleer of u de naam juist hebt ingevoerd en probeer het daarna opnieuw.
Translation: 'Can't find the file MSIEXEC /REGSERVER. Check if you typed the name correctly and try again'.
Step 5 - I ran the Run Dialog box and typed MSIEXEC /UNREGISTER (with AND without the extra space between ('MSIEXEC /UNREGISTER') in the Dialog Box and pressed Ok.
Got an error message in Dutch:
'Kan het bestand MSIEXEC /UNREGISTER niet vinden. Controleer of u de naam juist hebt ingevoerd en probeer het daarna opnieuw.
Translation: 'Can't find the file MSIEXEC /UNREGISTER. Check if you typed the name correctly and try again'.
So... conclusion: NOTHING worked.
My ideas for a possible solution didn't work, and neither did your ideas for a possible solution.
Reason why I want it to work is because of the HP Solution Center. If I can not install it with the software from the original installation disk, or the software that one can download from the HP site (the OJ_AIO_J6400_Full_Win_WW_140_408-4.exe file that is), than I have no HP Solution Center. That would be a pity, for I am sure my daughter would really love the use and ease of the program, and would really use it a lot for her study.
What's next? What else can I try to solve the problem?
Got any more idea's or helpful hints?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Abhijit,
I am able to install InDesign CS6 manually on the machines from the CD/DVD however when trying to install it via GPO or running the msi using the msi exec commands it doesn't install and leaves the above errors in the event log.
The installation was made using the same CD/DVD and the installation works on the Windows XP clients and software other than InDesign CS6 will install to the Win 7 64-bit machines via GPO.
Cheers,

RSAT won't install on Windows 8.1 Pro - "The system cannot find the file specified."

Please help. RSAT won't install on Windows 8.1 Pro. Every time I try, I get the same error - "The system cannot find the file specified.". I really don't want to have to refresh the PC to get it working! I've installed the update successfully on
a fresh win 8.1 enterprise install on a Hyper-V VM.
I am in uk, so have installed the en-US language pack first. I did have a windows component store corruption but I've managed to fix that.
event log says:
Windows update "Update for Windows (KB2693643)" could not be installed because of error 2147942402 "The system cannot find the file specified." (Command line: ""C:\Windows\system32\wusa.exe"
"C:\RSAT Windows8.1-KB2693643-x64.msu" ")
CBS log (C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log): http://1drv.ms/19CAv14

As Roger Lu reported, the log indicates that there is corruption in the update files that you downloaded. The log actually reports “file not found”, so you may also want to check permissions on the extracted files in C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download\76ecaa86ec6712300c2d71cbcdad378c\.
You can also re-try downloading the files to see if your original download was just corrupt.

It was a permissions issue! Thanks so much Bruce!
I checked the permissions for the folder mentioned above and TrustedInstaller only had List Folder Contents and Special Permissions. So I granted granted Read & Execute to TrustedInstaller and tried installing again...
1) double clicked the installer.
2) once it said Initialisation was complete, I checked the permissions again and it had re-set them to as before, so I granted Read & Execute to TrustedInstaller again
3) Installation was successful.
Not really sure why this happened as it doesn't make sense but it's working now :-)

New Version of Software Won't Install

I am trying to download the newest version of Blackberry Desktop Manager (710_b042_multilanguage.exe) for PC and it won't install all the way. The message keeps saying I have previous versions of the software still installed. I tried installing all Blackberry apps, re-booting the PC and re-downloading the update from the website but it still comes up with the same message. Any suggestions to correct so I can download the application?

I finally found a solution to this problem
While performing some searches, I discovered this affected BOTH Blackberry Link AND Blackberry Desktop Software, so there should have been some ... link between the two.
There are many threads around, but each one refers only to one of the two softwares, but the common problems led me to understand that this is unrelated to the software package itself, but to automatic driver installation procedures
carried out by the installer (Windows INstaller)
Here's what I found:
Affected Environment: the problems shows up on Windows 7 and other Windows version machines, when installing or upgrading Blackberry Desktop Software, or Blackberry Link.
Sometimes, you have Desktop software installed and you want to install Link, OR you have Desktop software installed, it is working fine, but you need to upgrade it (automatically) to apply some software update -
some Desktop SOftware updates are required to update some devices.
Symptomps
The problems shows in exactly the same way, during the final steps of installation of either Blackberry Desktop 7 OR Blackberry Link.
You get a warning message saying
"Some of the installation files from the previous versions of the software could not be removed. Make sure that no other application is using these files."
open the
Users\$_you_user_name\AppData\Local\Temp
directory. You may need to choose hidden files and folders in Windows Explorer to see these
Choose to sort files by creation date, scroll to the most recent files, and look for one of these
BB_Desktop.log, if you're installing Blackberry Desktop Software
OR
BBLink_Install.log if you're installing Blackberry Link software.
Open your file with a text editor, and look for part of the error message "some of the installation" using the Find feature
The cursor should stop where the error occoured.
If the line above shows something referring to InstallRimUsbDriver, there are good chances you're exactly in my situation.
If you DON'T find the same error I found, the line above the error message should give you a clue about what's going on, and you may want to share it on this forum, however the solution below may not be applicable to you.
Solution
Before you begin BACKUP YOUR SYSTEM AND CREATE A SYSTEM RESTORE POINT. The best thing is to have a full hard drive image. While the following steps are quite straightforward, additional problems on your system may be creating a
potentially worse situation. Remember to backup your Blackberry device as well and also contacts/calendars/notes as these can be affected by the first sync after Desktop Software reinstallation.
While I'm listing all the steps I took, some of them may be unnecessary, however the uninstall/reinstall of Desktop Manager or Link software should be performed anyway, IMHO.
Uninstall Blackberry Desktop Software or Blackberry Link (I chose the "erase user data" option as well).
With the device still connected, Uninstall the Blackberry smartphone driver from Control Panel / Device Manager
Disconnect the device.
Open a command prompt window, and type
pnputil.exe -e
you'll get a list of devices/drivers, scroll as needed and take note of the "oemxx.inf" entries regarding Research In Motion devices.
(xx can be a 2 or 3 digits number)
type
pnputil.exe -f -d oemxxx.inf
to remove the entries regarding the Research in Motion devices.
Chech that the operation succeded after each action.
Restart system.
At this point, yoy may start reinstalling the Blackberry Desktop or Blackberry Link Software;
You may still get the error.
Now perform again the above actions regarding pnputil.exe to see if there are still Research in Motion devices appearing.
then open the
Users\$_you_user_name\AppData\Local\Temp
directory. You may need to choose hidden files and folders in Windows Explorer to see these (you should have done this before, see above)
Choose to sort files by creation date, scroll to the most recent files, and look for one of these
rim_usb_install_log (date stamp) - choose the most recent
Open it with a text editor
In my case, I found this(20:52:07): Entering ModifyRimUsbRegKey
(20:52:07): Exit ModifyRimUsbRegKey, RimUsb.sys count: 2
(20:52:07): InstallRimUsbDriver NT
(20:52:07): DeleteAllRIMInfFiles ENTER
(20:52:07): SetupUninstallOEMInf inf fileem192.inf ERROR 0xe000023c
Look for the oemxxx.inf (in this example is oem192.inf) file on your hard drive. Delete it.
Run the installer again. This time, I went into another error
(20:59:48): DisconnectDevices: Enter
(20:59:48): DisconnectDevices: CreateInstance failed. Error=0x80070002
(20:59:48): DisconnectDevices: Enter
(20:59:48): DisconnectDevices: CreateInstance failed. Error=0x80070002
Then rebooted and the install went fine.
Keep in mind that, whenever something goes wrong with these driver related action, you get little information in the main log file, but you get some more in this file.
After performing these action, reconnect the device, it should be recognized; you'll almost certainly need to reconfigure your sync preferences, and start synching again.
Please let me know if this helped.

Software and drivers won't install on windows 8.1!!

I have a new computer running windows 8.1. After downloading the printer software for my all in one C4580, the files extract but then nothing happens. I've run the scan doctor and the install wizard and the same thing happens with those downloads. Hence, I have no way to install the software. In task manager the setup.exe is running and using alot of CPU's and so I ended the task. Went through the download and all the "fixes" and still with no luck. I've tried connecting my printer with the USB cable to see if that might help. It didn't. Please, I need help!

Hello ithacagoddess
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the software will not run once it extracts. I will do my best to assist you! I am going to provide numerous suggestions that could assist you.
Please complete all of your Windows Updates. Doing this could install, or repair, what is necessary to resolve the issue. Use these steps when installing your updates:
1. Open "Windows Update" in Control Panel.
2. Click "Settings", and then click "Install optional updates".
3. Next, click "Check for updates".
Next, I will have you install the latest redistributable package. This is the latest version and should be installed. This is very crucial towards the success of the installation. Please download and install if from this link: Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013
There have been certain .dat files that have been known to cause this issue. They are HPOIN*.DAT and HPWINS*.DAT. Deleting whatever of these files exist could resolve the issue. To do this, go to the Charms Bar, then search and %WINDIR% and hit Enter. Once the %WINDIR% window is open, look for any files that state with HPOIN or HPWINS and delete them.
If you have McAfee Live Safe installed, this program might be causing the issue. This software directly interferes with our printer software. Disabling the entire program should be done. The Spyware Realtime Scanner is the particular function that causes these issues.
In addition to disabling that program, you can perform a clean boot to disable everything else that might cause an issue. Here are some instructions on how to do this: Performing a Clean Boot in Windows
At this point, I would try reinstalling the printer software. Please use the Printer Install Wizard when installing the software: HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows
Please respond to this post after you try everything! I do have additional troubleshooting to suggest if this fails. Thanks for choosing the HP Forums. Have a great day!

IPod Updater Software won't install in computer

Help! I've searched through the discussion boards and can safely say I have not seen my specific problem with the iPod Updater software posted. For 8 weeks, I've installed the latest iPod Updater software (06-26; 09-23; 10-12) that I've downloaded from Apple and zdnet sites. Like most everyone, I kept getting the message that the iPod software is too old, etc. After each installation, everything seems to have downloaded properly. I then go on to the Utilities folder, and after I click on the latest Updater software to finish the installation, my computer keeps asking me to connect my iPod, and the Update and Restore buttons are greyed out. I even went up to the Options menu to Update and Restore and that's also not viable. I've then tried to reset, restore my iPod, nothing was working. I was even on the phone with Apple for 2.5 hours (iBook and iPod helpdesks) and the newest result is that my iPod is in the disk mode; and the folder with the exclamation mark is flashing. When I checked the Console log of my computer, I found this message:
2005-11-16 22:36:48.012 Installer[365] SUIS couldn't be installed because "This software cannot be installed on this computer."
2005-11-16 22:43:09.278 SystemUIServer[196] Trying to set an iPods time, though I have no user client.
Has this happened to anyone? Does anyone have any working solutions? Should I have posted this on the iBook site? I'm at my wits end.

I am experiencing the same problem. I cant seem to get the ipod updater to actually update my ipod.
itunes tends to freeze my system, even though Ive had a full format and reinstall. I think the trick is getting itunes v4.9 though I am struggling to find this version as well...

HP OfficeJet J6410 won't install under Windows 8 & Windows 8.1

Recently I made a posting about installing the HP OfficeJet J6410 printer on my daughter's new HP laptop.
Please, before answering my question, I would like to point out to two earlier postings from me.
1. The first posting.
Around april this year (2014) I bought a new laptop for myself (a HP 15 Notebook PC, d081ed). It had Windows 8.1 pre-installed on it. At first I had problems installing the HP OfficeJet J6410 printer. I received a very usefull reply by which I was able to solve the problem.

2. The second posting.
Almost two weeks ago a bought a second HP laptop (HP Pavilion TouchSmart 11-e000ed) voor my daughter. This laptop had Windows 8 pre-installed on it. I experienced the same problem with the printer and made a posting. Unfortunatelly that didn't resolve the problem. I received no further reactions. The problem is still unsolved.

A. What have I done afterwards?
Afterwards the previous above I first made sure I had all the updates for Windows 8 installed. I've read that in the case of the laptop of my daughter I could upgrade for free to Windows 8.1. So I did that too.
B. Why a second posting?
Since I upgraded to Windows 8.1. I realized my second posting wasn't quite accurate anymore. I realized it could lead to confusion since I now don't have Windows 8 installed on it anymore.
Now here's the strange part.
B.1.
On my own laptop (d081ed, HP 15 Notebook PC) I have the same operating system (Windows 8.1. ) as I now have on the laptop for my daughter (11-e000ed, HP Pavillion Touchsmart)
B.2.
After upgrading I tried the same steps, as described in my first posting, on the laptop for my daughter.
Strangely enough, and although we now both have a HP laptop with exactly the same operating system on it, I can not get the printer installed.
What can be wrong? I tried updating, the scrubber, the packages to solve the C++ redistributable packages... nohting works! And worse!! It seems I somehow made the problem worse...
Why do I think that, and are there things or error-messages that are different than the one I experienced before (with my own laptop, see point 1 above at the beginning of this posting).
B.2.1.
The first thing that is different:
If I want to install the printer, and after it extracted files, checked the system and prepares it for installation, I receive the message:
C:\users\<username of my daughter.\AppData\Local\Temp\7zS0FF0\Setup\de..
This is different than the message (Program: C\Users\IRN\AppData\Local\Temp\7zS28Db\Setup.exe) I experienced with my own laptop (the d081ed).
Note the difference between:
..Temp\7zS0FF0\Setup\de.. (<-- that is the message I get on the laptop of my daughter)
and
..Temp\7zS28Db\Setup.exe (<-- that is the message I had on my own laptop)
B.2.2.
The second thing that is different:
At some point I installed, after upgrading to Windows 8.1, the SP 40669 package. I can't remember having done that on my own laptop.
B.2.3.
On my own laptop I installed the C+++ packages for 2005, 2008 and 2010.
On the one for my daughter I only installed the C+++ package for 2010 (KB2562063, version 10.0.30319 and 10.0.40219, but I don't think that is the problem really, correct my if I'm wrong).
B.2.4.
Before I upgraded to Windows 8.1. I got an error message at rebooting the system (in Dutch
explorer.exe - Toepassingsfout
De instructie op 0x5d2c3e01 verwijst naar geheugen op 0x00000000. Een lees- of schrijfbewerking op het geheugen is mislukt: read.
Klik op OK als u het programma wilt beëindigen.
And after that the message doesn't wait for your click on OK. It just flashes away very quickly. Since I got that message a couple of times, I did manage to capture it with the camcorder on my mobile phone. In that way I was able to describe you the message as exactly as here above.
I sometimes get the message again, and then not. So it's not consistent. It seems to me the problem there is with explorer.exe and not with the printerproblem, but I'm not sure. Couple of days later, there were new updates for Windows 8.1, which I installed, and the error-message didn't show up again the last few days.
Last request.
I would really appreciate some help with this. The reason I like the printer installed is because of the HP Solution Center. I'm sure my daughter would use it for scanning documents needed for her study and printing activities.
I installed the basic printer for the time being, but only as I temporarily work-around, so she can - at least - print all of her study materials. Scanning, on the other hand, is some differtent then, but that is a known problem with the basic printer driver.
I truly don't understand this problem. We both have an HP laptop, we both have the same operating system now (Windows 8.1) and stil .. on my laptop I managed to install the printer, and on hers not.
Please help me.
(p.s. I do have a HP support Pack for both laptops, and if one thinks that this problem is too complex and would redirect me to HP support ... no offense taken, from my side. But, I really would like to try to solve problem myself at first and would really appreciate your help with it. )

Hello RNRMusicMan,
Glad you're willing to help me out. So Sorry I couldn't send a message earlier. I had a few appointments the last few days and afterwards I had to little time to spend enought time to try to solve te problem.
But o.k, let's continue.
I've followed the steps you mentioned as a second option. I'll describe what I've done.
First I tried the Hp printer install wizzard
No succes
Same error occured …\setup\de.. (at the second fase of the installation program of the printersoftware)
Restarted the system
I used the Scrubber
L4
Error: uninstaller didn't work. Clicked ok
Restart
At restart I got the same error about something with the memory. (In dutch; 'De instructie op 0x5d2c3e01 verwijst naar geheugen op 0x00000000. Een lees- of schrijfbewerking op het geheugen is mislukt: read.' and please note that 0x5d2c3e01 was this with different numbers etc, but I guess that's just the adress in the memory where the program wants to read/write to)
I continued with cleanboot
Msconfig – services – hide all microsoft services – disable
Startup – system configuration – open task manager
On startup tab in task manager – I disabled each startup item
Closed taskmanager
Startup – system configuration – checked ok box
Restarted
Tried to install again with the OI_AIO_J6400_Full_Win_WW_140_4.exe software I downloaded from the hp website
At ‘systeem wordt voorbereid op installatie’ I got the same error again: ‘C:\Users\Simone\AppData\Local-\Temp\7zS46SD\Setup\de..
After this I followed the steps as described to start up again normally (that is: msconfig, enabling the services again, etc.) and that step went o.k and as aspected, so no problems there.
After that I restarted the system again. I didn't get the message about the problem with the memory again. So I guess that must have been due to the error in the scrubber program.
I really don't understand this. Me and my daughter both have a hp, both the same OS (windows 8.1), and on my laptop I got the printer running and hers not. What can it be? I'm guessing that there most have been something that went wrong then with either the installation with one of the windows 8 or windows 8.a upgrades, or with the upgrading from windows 8 to windows 8.1. Or is that to far fetched? But that just a question I have, trying to understand what went wrong or what could be the cause of this.
So what now? It didn't work.
Update (29-9-14):
Since all the suggested solutions didn't work out I decided to start all over.
One of the reasons I decided to do so, was the following:
I've got an external DVD writer (Samsung, Slim External, model SE-8084D/TSWS) that I needed to use for installation of the HP J6410 CD that came with the printer, since the laptop of my daughter doesn't have a built-in DVD player.
Now here the strange thing! When I use it on my own laptop, it starts the software on the the HP J6410 DVD flawlessly. No problems there! But, when I connect it to the laptop of my daughter, it sees the CD and I can explore the files on it. But, when I try to start HPSetup.exe on it it does ... nothing!! Now that's very stange! Me and my daughter both have a HP laptop, with the same OS. Still it functions normally on my laptop, and on for the one for my daughter it does nothing. Same with the software that you can download from the HP site. It runs on my computer, but gives errors on the one for my daugther. So I guess that was a good reason to decide to start all over again from scratch
This is what I've done so far.
- I made a (full) factory recovery.
- I've installed all the updates for Windows 8.
- After that I upgraded to Windows 8.1 again and installed all of the updates for it as well.
- I removed the antivirus program (Norton Antivirus)
- After that is done I tried to install the printer again.
No success!
But.. I'm convinced I've found out where the problem might lay.
My daughter had c++ 2012 redistributable installed (version 11.0.50727).
My other laptop doesn't. An even older hp laptop (with Windows Vista on it) does neither. On those laptops the printer software ran.
On the new laptop for my daughter it doesn't.
So.. I'm suspecting the problem does not lay in the printer software but in the c++ 2012 redistributable package.
Another difference is that my own laptop had an Intel processor. The one for my daughter has an AMD.
So I am convinced the problem must lay in the C++ 2012 package (maybe combined with the AMD processor? I don't know) and NOT the printer software.
Anyone got any ideas on what to do next?
If so, I thankfully await your answer.

Firefox won't install on Windows 7 64-bit.

I just installed a new hard drive on my system with Windows 7 64 Bit OS. Same that I used on the old hard drive that crashed. I downloaded the installer, and have tried to run it both with and without administrator permissions (by right clicking on the file). the UAC asks me if I want to proceed, i say yes, I get a flash of some window and then . . . . nothing. I have downloaded a another copy of the executable, with the same results. I am using my laptop to post this.

Firefox is normally pretty simple to install. Look at any security software you have installed is any of that somehow blocking or preventing the change.
* Please list all security related software you are using ?
Ensure it is a genuine copy of Firefox from for instance

Your Windows logs may give you some clue as to what is happening
