Windows Installer Error 1605
a few weeks ago. After booting up, she would open Outlook and get the following error: "Microsoft Office Outlook cannot microsoft fixit tool run the add-in. Microsoft Outlook cannot install the necessary files due to windows installer error 1605. This action is only valid for products that are currently installed." While this error is displayed, you can see installer dialog in the upper left hand corner that shows it is importing settings, etc. After trying a repair of Outlook/Office and not having any success, I ran across a group post that advised creating a new Outlook profile and this fixed the problem, for a few weeks anyways. The probelm came back, and adding another profile did not work. When I clicked on OK in response to the error message, five times, Outlook opened and ran ok. I rebooted the computer and it did the same dance, so I rebooted it once more to show her how to get into it while I researched the problem and this time it opened without errors. I don't have a high degree of confidence that this is fixed, so, does anyone know what causes this and the real fix? I'm tempted to uninstall and reinstall Office, but if there is an easier fix, I'd rather try that first.

I had a similar issue with 32/64 2013. Installed 32, then decided 64 was better - same 1605 issue.

Did you have any additional language packs installed with the x64 install for it? Have these been reinstalled with the x86 version? 0 Sonora OP Daniel2839 Mar 26, 2014 at 12:57 UTC Before you do Anything I would run the the Microsoft Fixit Tool this should be able to resolve the issue that you are having. 0 Sonora OP Daniel2839 Mar 26, 2014 at 12:58 UTC Also you can try this if you do not want to use the Fix It tool On the Start menu click Run. In the Run dialog box, type the following command:Outlook.exe /resetnavpaneNote: There is a space between "Outlook.exe" and "/resetnavpane"Click OK. 0 Ghost Chili OP Doughnut Destroyer Mar 26, 2014 at 3:49 UTC If you did an uninstall and a fresh install of 32 bit and still get the error then there may be reminence of your old install in the registry. Delete the Office folder all together from RegEdit and then try to install the 32 bit copy again. 0 This discussion has been inactive for

Solved Office 2007 Installation Issues Posted on 2011-12-28 Outlook MS Office 1 Verified Solution 17 Comments 1,006 Views Last Modified: 2012-06-27 installer error II pushed Office 2007 out. One user could not run outlook 2007 after the install. I think she had Outlook 2003 installed separately from office 2003. I say this b/c from her login/profile, after I had uninstalled Office 2003 from my login, could still see Outlook 2003. I could not from my profile. An attempt to uninstall from her profile asked for the installer error 1605 Outlook11.msi file. I could not find that MSI, so I used the MS ORK to perform an uninstall. No luck. I eventually used the installer clean up. All of these heroics b/c when she tries to run Outlook, outlook states, "MICROSOFT OFFICE OUTLOOK CANNOT RUN THE ADD-IN. THIS FEATURE IS NOT CURRENTLY INSTALLED. WOULD YOU LIKE TO INSTALL IT NOW?" No gets you, "FAILED TO REGISTER VB SCRIPT DLL. REINSTALL OR RUN REGSVR32.EXE VBSCRIPT.DLL TO SELF REGISTER." Then Outlook closes. Clicking yes take you through a configuration process. At the end of the configuration process, the result is "MICROSOFT OFFICE OUTLOOK CANNOT RUN THE ADD-IN. MICROSOFT OFFICE OUTLOOK CANNOT INSTALL EH NECESSARY FILES DUE TO A WINDOWS INSTALLER ERROR 1605. THIS ACTION IS ONLY VALID FOR PRODUCTS THAT ARE CURRENTLY INSTALLED." Then back to the same error, “MICROSOFT OFFICE OUTLOOK CANNOT RUN THE ADD-IN. THIS FEATURE IS NOT CURRENTLY INSTALLED. WOULD YOU LIKE TO INSTALL IT NOW?" I have tried manually registering the vbscript.dll and it does succeed, but it does not help. I have deleted the Add-in registry entry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Office and Double click on HKEY_LOCAL_
