  1. unable to install msxml 4 SP3


    I have had to re-install windows after a failed update locked me out of the OS.
    I have a new ssd and a fresh install of Win 10 Pro version 1809 build 17763.379, but I am unable to install an app that worked fine on the old system, version 1703 build 15063.483

    It requires msxml 4.0 Parser SP3 version 4.30.2117.0 or higher.
    The app attempts to install the correct version from Microsoft, but it fails.

    The app developers say to manually install the msxml.msi file from Microsoft.
    I've downloaded the file and attempted to install it but it does not work.

    If I look in Settings / Apps, MSXML 4.0 SP3 Parser appears to be installed, version number 4.30.2100.0

    If I look via windows explorer / Program Files (x86), there is a folder called MSXML 4.0 but it only contains the eula.

    If I look at Windows / System 32 / I can find the following .dll files:
    msxml3.dll
    msxml3r.dll
    msxml6.dll
    msxml6r.dll

    but no msxml4.dll

    I have also attempted this installation on a separate PC running Win10 Home, version 1809 build 17763.437 and it has the same issues, so I think this may be an incorrect windows setting?

    I really need to install the software that requires this version of msxml, so if anyone can suggest a way to get msxml 4.30.2117.0 installed and working correctly
    it would be much appreciated.

    :)

  2. MSXML 4.0 SP3 Parser problem

    Hi Anju,

    Thankyou for your reply. However it does not really answer the question I have, perhaps I did not explain very clearly.

    As far as Windows 10 is concerned I am up to date. I have checked.

    The issue is Secunia PSI the programme I use to keep my programmes up to date flags up that MSXML 4.0 is not up to date but sends me to the MS download page for MSXML 6 which is already installed. Installed when I upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1.

    It is flagging up, I think, the last update or version of MSXML 4.0 SP3 Parser

    I have decided to include a couple of links to now closed threads in the Secunia PSI forum that may shed some light on my dilemma:

    Secunia

    Secunia

    I have version 4.30.2100 of the now unsupported MSXML 4.0, this is apparently vulnerable according to info in above threads. The version I should have is 4.30.2117.0 but as I have now upgraded to Windows 10 I am not sure I can download this final version
    of MSXML 4.0 SP3 Parser to patch any vulnerability.

    When I posted this question the other day on the Secunia site, an experienced 'handling contributor' who contributed to the above threads suggested my options were to ignore and live with it or uninstall MSXML 4.0 SP3 Parser.

    However I checked out a couple of threads on MS Community related to MSXML 4.0 SP3 Parser and the advice was not to uninstall. So I do not know what to do about this apparent vulnerability I have ?

    I am not very tech savvie and would appreciate further guidance regarding this issue.

    Not even sure I am posting this question in the correct place

    Regards
