Sorry to bump this but this problem has resurfaced so ignore my last post. It's the same programs. It makes no difference whether I start them from their folders or shortcuts.

I tried repairing Windows Live Mail, Photo Gallery and Writer but got an error message telling me they weren't installed properly. Same when I tried to uninstall. They were working fine!

What could be causing this? What should I do? I've only just started to get my programs and files set up again after my last format so don't want to have to do it again.

Edit: I forgot to mention when I try to reinstall Windows Live Suite I get the error message:
"Code: 0x80070641
Description: This installer service could not be accessed. This can occur if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance"
