Trouble with Microsoft's Windows 7 DVD/ISO USB Tool


I downloaded the Microsoft Windows 7 DVD/ISO USB Tool from the Microsoft site, but whenever I try to run the EXE (with elevated privileges or not), instead of running, the LessMSI file (to inspect MSI installation files) pops up....


Any ideas why?? I can't seem to get the Windows 7 DVD/ISO USB Tool to work on my machine - and I re-downloaded it a couple of times, just to avoid any corrupt download - downloaded with Firefox and with Microsoft Internet Explorer - no luck :-(


Thoughts?? I'm running Windows 7 x64 Pro.


Answer



Could you create a new user in the control panel and try to reproduce the error?


I guess there are some registry keys that have been messed up. A new user would create a new profile and therefore replacing (at least some) registry nodes.


If it works, you might think about keeping it.
If not, you might need to start living with the thought that you have to reinstall...
