About the issue

As we all know, a Windows Installer is used to install new programs on your computer. This error will be developed when the Windows Installer is damaged and needs to be repaired. As soon as the installation begins, the Windows Installer runs in the background and searches for the Installation package. The Installer will fail to process the package or crash immediately, and you’ll see an error message on your screen that there is some problem with your Windows Installer package. Unfortunately, the software installation will not be possible until the error is fixed.
