Trying to install Reader 9.1 - error 1402

So I'm trying to install Reader 9.1. I'm using Windows XP, Firefox 3.0.11. The installation gets to about 98%, and then I get an error message that says:
Error 1402. Could not open key: HKEY\LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\OptionalComponents\MSFS. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
Um, what? Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks.

Thank you for the response, and sorry it took so long to respond in my own thread.
I tried using the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility, but it still doesn't work. I opened up Registry Editor, and browsed to the key it said was missing. It doesn't look like I have that key - the only thing in there is something that says (default) in the name column, type is REG_SZ, and under data it says (value not set). I have no idea what any of this means, and I'm also not sure how to see what permissions I have. Can you make any sense of this?

Is there a simple fix to error 1719 in Windows 8 when trying to install Reader?

Is there a simple fix to error 1719 in Windows 8 when trying to install Reader?
Have tried the MS fixit tool with no success.
There doesn't seem to be a simple fix other than the complicated manual registry changes I have seen.
Thank you.

Pat:
Yes, this is where I saw the article detailing the MS "fixit" link...that didn't do it (other than removing Reader for me. The rest of the fixes I see involved either modifying the registry in some way all the way up to completely re-installing the system software (which is kind of tough as I bought the HP computer with Windows 8 already installed).
I am not keen to try modifying the registry...
I agree, it has nothing to do with Reader but thought this has probably affected many others which is why I posted here.
Thanks.

Error 1852 when trying to install Reader XI.

There's no explanation at all. So what is this???
I'm currently running Reader X (10.1.12) on OS X 10.6.8 (yes - there is a reason).

Hi dlwas,
Please let us know from where are you trying to install Reader XI. We would need the installation logs for further investigation.
Installing Reader XI would automatically overwrite Reader X.

"Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

After trying to install Mavericks, got an error message my hard drive was bad. Took it in to the Apple Store and the 'Genius' bar guy couldn't see it as an external drive when he connected another Macbook. If I get another hard drive what's involved in getting my system operational again?

Hi there
Looks like I may be experiencing a similar issue to yours as having issues installing Maverick on snow leopard?

Try to disable your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes it work.
You may need to delete the temp folder (%TEMP%) to remove the old files.

When trying to install Reader 9.2 updates it wants me to close applications that are using reader. There is nothing listed and no applications are running. Any ideas?

When trying to install Reader 9.2 updates it wants me to close applications that are using reader. There is nothing listed and no applications are running. Any ideas?

Make sure your browser is closed and check to see if there are any processes related to Acrobat still running. If you are using Windows, Control-Alt-Delete > Processes tab. Look for AcroRd32.exe or Acrobat.exe or Acrotray.exe and stop these processes from running before you try your update again. A good ol' computer reboot might do the trick for you too.

Getting error message when trying to install Reader 9 on Win 7 64 bit w/IE 9

I hope I can be concise and not have this all sound too convoluted but I am so confused by this time that I may not be able to hide it. I have recently bought an HP Omni 220 PC, 64 bit, with Win 7, Intel Core i7, and IE9. Reader didn't come installed and I have been battling for weeks now trying to get it set up.
I couldn't get Reader 10 to install so I installed Reader 9 thinking to update to 10. While I can open and read PDF files beautifully on my desktop, Reader 9 allowed me to open .PDF files online only about 2 times and then stopped. When I tried to open a PDF link my IE 9 would crash and recover and tell me some problem had caused IE to have to close and recover. I tried 'repairing' the installation through the "Repair" option on the drop down menu which you get when you right click on the .msi installer. When the repair is running I get an error which reads:
"Warning 1909.Could not create shortcut Adobe Reader 9.lnk. Verify that the destination folder exists and that you can access it."
I have no idea what destination folder this refers to or how to fix it.
I uninstalled Reader 9, attempted again to install Reader 10. I think I've figured out that the 10 installer (which disappears and nothing happens when I try to run it) is actually a program different from the actual installation program but I fear I'd just run into this same destination folder boo-boo with the 10 installation as I have the 9 installation. At least the 9 will run without disappearing.
In short, finally, how can I fix this Warning 1909 to get Reader 9 installed so that I can actually read PDF files in IE9 and hope to update to 10?
Thank you,
SouthCountryMom

Ok, I have now gotten Reader 10 installed, can open files from my desktop but IE 9 keeps crashing when I try to open PDF files even though I exited and relaunched IE 9. I did take ownership of all the folders containing Reader 10 and then clicked OK when I got the error notice about the shortcut being installed. I did make a copy of the crash error report and it reads as follows:

Error1304. Error writing to file while trying to install Reader 8.1.2

I get the following messages when trying to install Adobe Reader 8.1.2 for website.
Error1304.Error writing to file c:\Program files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe. Verify that you have access to that directory.
Then it give me options to RETRY or CANCEL. When I retry it says the same thing.
I have unistalled previous reader, restarting system then tried once again to install and still get the same error message.
What do I need to do? It is unfortunate that many people are having issue of one kind or another downloading and installing the reader.
Please help for I need this for working purposes.
Carol

Check whether the folder c:\Program files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader
exists. Does it exist?
If so, look whether the file acrord32.exe exists in that folder. Does
it exist? If so, try and delete it. Can you?
If it doesn't exist. Try and create a file by that name. Can you?
In each case, if you get an error message, what is it?

Error 1335 when trying to install Reader 9.3.4 on fresh xp installation

Hi,
I keep getting an Error 1335 The Cabinet file Data1.cab required for this installation is corrupt etc. Im trying to install on XP SP3 with a fresh installation of xp. I've tried Firefox and IE8 with the Adobe download manager and I've also tried a manual download. Everytime I get the same message.
I need to mention too that the download page is less its css etc - so just seeing text and links if thats any help towards this problem.
Could someone offer a fix please?
thanks in advance
Gill

well that was interesting - inside the Adobe REader 9 installer which was left on my desktop from a manual attempt to install it, is a folder Reader 9, so i opened that and successfully installed Adobe Reader 9.3.0. using AcroRead installer. With that installer are 3 update patches - non of which will install.
So having succesfully installed AR 9.3.0, i then ran update from inside the program insterface and ................. voilla!!! it updated!! to Reader 9.3.4!!
Soo seems there is a problem with the files at manual download and using the download manager.
Hope this helps anyone else suffering the same problem.
Cheers

After trying to install update on MacAir error message and then message saying panic (cpu caller 0xffffff800a859241): "Unable to find driver for this platform: \"ACPI\".... I'm worried as all of my work is on my computer and I'm afraid I will lose it all.

I am totally worried I am going ot lose all my data after trying to install update on MacAir. Cannot do anything error message saying panic ....."Unablet o find driver for this platform."

Hi Guys
No good news I'm afraid. I have been through ALL the system caches and files that were updated at the time of said issue. Reset - rebuild and even gone back to my TimeMachine copy from earlier this AM. Nothing! Can only assume it is something deeper in the /usr or var or private folders.....
I have cloned the system and core files (/usr, /private) etc etc to an external HD and it still recreates the fault. I am afraid to say I have no more time at the minute to look at so have put my machine back to 2 hours prior via my TimeCapsule.
I the absense of anyone else or, indeed, Apple fixing in the next 12 hours, will get back onto it from the cloned copy I have kept and see if I can find the offending file/files...
Sorry I don't have an immedaite solution.
