M$ stands for Microsoft!!! I went to Windows Update and it doesn't detect
that I need any updates. I already tried downloading a version of Windows
Installer from the M$ website which didn't work, it said wrong OS, but above
the download it said XP!!!

It is rather obvious from my post that what I want to do is install &
uninstall software without glitches, that means have Windoze Installer
working!!!
