The installer won't open

[desbest]

Hello I can't install Comodo as the installer isn't working. After the self-extraction happens, nothing appears. It eventually closes in Task Manager. I've tried it with both the online and offline installer.

Disabling Windows Defender Antivirus and Windows Firewall doesn't work. I'm using Windows 10 21H2

See below for details.

Maybe the following helps.
- log on to Windows 10 as admin.
- run ciscleanuptool (follow instructions).
- install the offline installer again.

I've tried it and it doesn't work. After clicking accept nothing happens.

Here's what the generated text file says.

Code: [Select]

Did you have CIS installed (and running) on that computer previously or is this a fresh / new CIS install on that computer?

You could try this too:
1) restart Windows 10 into Safe Mode.
2) run ciscleanuptool (follow instructions).
3) restart Windows 10 normally and log on as admin.
4) install the offline installer again.

Hi desbest,

Ok, we will check and update you.
Did you have CIS running earlier or is it fresh installation ?
May i know your system bit type(64bit/32bit) ?

Thanks

I had previously installed CIS in May for the first time on Windows on a fresh windows installation on the very first day of it, uninstalled it last week and am right now trying to install it again.

My computer and windows installation is 64 bit.

I'm not sure but is it normal to see three 32-bit CIS applications running in your Task Manager while CIS is being installed?
I would expect to see 64-bit CIS applications running while CIS is being installed on a 64-bit system.

You can see that the SHA1 hashes both match for both files, so I downloaded the correct files. See the image below.

Very sure you're running 64-bit version of Windows 10?
