Is InstallShield Pop-up A Virus?

Mar 2, 2005

I'm using a WinXP-pro PC, and Office 2003 and wondered if someone knows about the "Install Shield Update Manager? A pop-up in the bottom right (same place where incoming emails pop up by fading-in-fading-out) just appeared that said "Install Shield needs to check for updates", then it faded back down into the task bar as an icon (navy blue swirl) next to the icons like Outlook, McAfee, volume control, etc.If you drag over the icon, it's name is "InstallShield Update Manager".Is this a virus? How did it get into the task bar? There's no corresponding email in the inbox, so it's not from an email, right? Does it belong to Sonic--the only other software maker I know that has an "Update Manager." Do I really need an update? If not, how do I get rid of it forever?

Can No Longer Install Program With Installshield

Oct 11, 2005

I can no longer install any program with installshield. The process goes about 3/4th the way through and hangs up, no error message, it just stops. I have been able to install a program in safe mode but the program then does not work correctly. I also tried to uninstall a program and that process hangs up also.

Installshield Process In FRENCH Instead Of English

Aug 12, 2005

I just worked on trying to set up the latest WHQL certified video card drivers for my nVidia Geforce FX 5200. The Installshield process comes up in FRENCH instead of English. I have the English US version of Windows XP Pro. I download the US English version of the drivers. I live in Canada, so I am able to understand French and the install did install the English version of the drivers/files. How can I fix this, so it is back in English?

InstallShield Setup Launcher Needs To Close

Nov 19, 2009

The DVD drive is not working properly, and it APPEARS to be related to an error with Windows Installer. I can read files on a storage disk in the drive, but any install disk brings up "InstallShield Setup Launcher has encountered a problem and needs to close." I have done the following with no effect: - Run Windows Install cleanup - Downloaded and installed Windows Installer 4.5 - Made sure the Installer Service is set to Automatic - Scanned with AVG, Superantispyware, Spybot, and Advanced System Optimizer - Unregistered, then registered the Windows Installer Service - Made sure all Windows updates are updated This may provide a clue, however, if it's related. When running Windows Update, the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 and 3.5 SP1 and 3.5 Family Update will not install.

Installshield (Media Converter) Fatal Error

Dec 29, 2006

I am having a major problem trying to install some s/w (Sansa MediaConverter) on my P4, Win XP SP2 PC. Just as the s/w begins to install I get a fatal error - (something like) "Unable to create a file that already exists ... C:Progam FilesCommon FilesInstallshieldengine6Intel 32iuser.dll" Since I was able to install the s/w on a friend's similar PC I think the problem is a compatability or bug with XP and/or the Installshield appln on my machine.

I followed some suggestions (from the Installshield support site) and cleaned up my temp file, deleted the 'Engine 6' folder and reinstalled the Installshield 'ikernal.exe' but this hasn't helped. Surprisingly when I tried to reinstall the 'ikernal' it also runs into exactly the same error! - so there is some issue with how the Installshield (Engine 6) is working on my PC.

Unable To Install Installshield Scripting Runtime

Apr 13, 2006

I have a Win XP SP2 laptop and any software that uses installshield will not install. I get different errors depending on the particular program I'm trying to install. One example is "1607: Unable to install installshield scripting runtime". Everything else on the computer seems to be running fine. I've searched the web extensively for answers to this problem and I'm down to either reinstalling the Installshield program or reinstalling Win XP. Does anyone have info on how to solve this problem? Or does anyone know where to find the installshield program so I can reinstall it? Reinstalling Windows obviously has it's drawbacks.

Installshield Wizard Won't Uninstall Program Marked

Mar 6, 2005

My husband and I have tried to uninstall his Medal of Honor game using the control panel program change/remove with no success. Everytime we click on the icon change/remove it acts as if it's going to remove it but then it doesn't. This game has used 2,000 kb space on our computer and we are trying to free this space. Somehow the game has the icon for Wildtangent Games in the front of it and it is not part of that system. We have already removed the Wildtangent program and other Medal of Honor games successfully however, this one Medal of Honor game seems unable to be removed regardless of all our efforts. Can anyone please help us? We've done everything we know to do with no success.

InstallShield Wizard - MYOB Accounting Program

Jun 22, 2005

I've been trying to install the game Battlefield 2 on my PC (Pentium 4, 2.4 GHZ, 1024 MB RAM). However, after I press install, the InstallShield installer seems to gets stuck instantly whilst displaying the message "configuring your new software installation". The same thing happened when I tried to uninstall another game, Delta Force Xtreme, and also when I tried to install the MYOB Accounting program. I thought that maybe re-installing Service Pack 2 might help - but unfortunately that too uses the InstallShield Wizard and got stuck on the "inspecting configuration" message. The only way I can quit the installation from here is to End Task from the Task Manager.

Install Game - InstallShield Engine (ikernel.exe) Not Launched

Mar 22, 2008

I bought a game today and wanted to install it. I put the cd in, and it says "The InstallShield Engine (ikernel.exe) could not be launched. No such interface supported." I've tried everything possible that google has to offer. I tried deleting the Engine file, but it won't delete. It would come right back. I tried looking for corrupt files in C:, nothing. I went to the Installshield consumers website. Nothing on there helped. I've tried all but downloading the latest version of ikernel, but the problem is I have to use the kernel program to install the latest kernel which isn't working. I hope that made sense. I saw I could use Windows Installer, but yeah I have no clue how to use that. I downloaded it, and I'm lost after that. It would be awesome if someone could give me walk through on using it or just tell me how to solve my original problem.

Fairly Nasty Virus - Downloaded Norton Anti-Virus

Sep 20, 2008

My PC recently got a fairly nasty virus (W32-Sinowal-based Maximus! or something along those lines) so we had to get it wiped. A few days later, my computer was all messed up again. I can only boot up in Safe Mode, my sound doesn't work, and it is running slower than normal. I need to find out if I have another virus (although the guy who fixed it downloaded Norton Anti-Virus and it seemed fine for a few days) or if maybe my computer is just dying. It's about three years old and apparently it was outdated before we even bought it. Is there any way the virus could have affected the computer's hard drive or whatever (yeah, I don't quite know what I'm talking about) or have I maybe gotten another virus?

Trojan Virus - Is Computer Cleaned After Virus Infection?

Aug 14, 2008

I had a trojan Virus in the computer. I think that I got rid of it, but I am not sure could anyone that can read a log please tell me if there is anything else left in the computer. The computer now doesn't stay on-line it disconnects itself. I called the company that provides me with my internet service, and they said that I need a filter for the phone line. The person told me that, that will take care of the problem of the internet disconnecting. I think that it could be the virus I had in the computer. I wasn't able to get on-line for at least a week, I had gone and checked the disk for errors and finally the anti-virus program was able to find the virus's.
