Make Windows Installer work under safe mode

To make Windows Installer work under safe mode, you need to create a registry entry for every type of safe mode you are logged in to.
  1. Safe Mode.
    Type this in a command prompt:
    REG ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Minimal\MSIServer" /VE /T REG_SZ /F /D "Service"
    
    
    and then
    net start msiserver
    
    
    This will start the Windows Installer Service.
  2. Safe Mode with Network
    REG ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Network\MSIServer" /VE /T REG_SZ /F /D "Service"
    
    
    and followed by
    net start msiserver 
    
    
    This will start the Windows Installer Service.
