  1. Microsoft Installer assume an driver is still installed when it's not.


    So to get a clearer picture, I installed a third party driver for PS3 controller through msi. When I decide to reset my laptop as a routine clean up, I did not uninstalled the msi prior to the reset. After the reset, I proceed to reinstall the driver but was greeted with this message.So I decided to check the device driver and found the drivers and deleted them, however when I tried the installation again, the issue persists. So right now I require a solution to solve this issue so I can reinstall the driver and I prefer not to perform another reset as I spent hours reinstalling everything.TL;
