Windows 10 Windows Installer (msiserver) greyed out

Hi Rakesh,

I have the exact same issue that RichardHess had, except that this solution is not working for me. After running, Windows Update Troubleshooter states "Troubleshooting couldn't identify the problem".

My Antivirus has not been able to update for about a month now because "Update has detected a running installation" (msiserver), but msiserver will not let me end its task. All options for msiserver in Services are grey, unavailable to select.

Please help with further troubleshooting. Thanks!

AJ

 

MSIServer won't stop


Hy pfjaco and welcome to the forum

msiserver is your Windows Installer. Service description: Adds, modifies and removes applications provided as a Windows Installer or APPX package (*.msi, *.msp, *.appx). If this service is disabled, any services that explicitly depend on it will fail to start.

I'm not sure if it is a good idea to actually disable the service. If you are having issues with programs installing and updating, you should really be trying to determine the exact cause.

Anyhow, you can change the settings for the service by either typing 'services.msc' in your run dialog box, or typing 'services' in your search box (select the services desktop app). The service is listed as Windows Installer.
