I am trying to install AVG Internet Security 2013. The problem is, that I keep getting the following message:
The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This error can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance.
Severity:Error
Error code: 0xC0070643
Error message: General internal error
Additional message: MSI Engine: Failed to initialize the package.
@AVGMSI_Error 1719

I have tried AVG and Microsoft for answers and none helped.
Is there anyone who has had this problem or can help me?
I would appreciate any help offered.
Thank you

If you have an older version you probably need to un-install it first to install the new version.Read this article on the AVG forum.

I went to the site and did what it said.. Everything is the same. I can't even install a different anti-virus program now. I keep getting same message.
Is there anything else?
Thank you

Try downloading and use CCleaner and see if it will remove any remnants of the old version of AVG and see what happens.

I finally gave up and did a complete system restore. I am in the process of re-installing everything, but the avg internet security 2013 installed without any problems.
Thank everyone for their help.
Thank you
