    [Resolved] Windows Update - Windows Installer 3.1 fails to install - Access denied

    Apparently this is a common problem;

    I performed a repair install of Windows XP Pro OEM with sp2 & when I go to Windows Update it wants to install the Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1. The update fails & requires a re-boot. I downloaded the redistribution copy of Installer 3.1 & installed & it fails towards the end saying “access denied”
