Windows 10: ERROR 1605 and ERROR 1628

Hello.

I am using Hardware from Roccat, so I downloaded the Programm "Roccat Swarm". Sometime in May, it didnt open up anymore. So i tried to deinstall and install it again.

It didn´t work. I deleted any Roccat file, AppData etc and tried to reinstall it.


The Problem now is, that if i download the new Version and want to start it via WINrar, it will give me 3 options to choose from.

"Modify" "Repair" "Delete" None of them works and I get the same ERROR all the Time:
"Error 1605, this action is only valid for products that are currently installed"

In the Windows Controlpanel I see that there is still the old Version of Roccat Swarm from May. However, when I try to deinstall or change it, the program wants to start and install itself. When I try this, I get the message "ERROR 1628 failed to install".

I searched through so many solutions, and I didnt found anything that work, I have Windows10.

Please, if you know how I could maybe fix this, help me.


Thank u very much!

:)

Error 1628 : While installing Flight Simulator

Have used Paralles to get Windows 10 on my Imac so that I could then install all my Flight Sim X files.

Only get part way when the 1628 code comes up. I cannot bring up the idrive.exe and msiexec.exe files to end the process as suggested as in step 3 of suggested fixes.

I think Paralles might have some how prevented access to these on the Processes tab under Task Manager.

Might be that some one has managed to sort this?
