MS Project problem on installation

Asked By lukegams 1020 points N/A Posted on - 06/27/2011

Hi experts,

When I was on my field work to address some client concern, I came across a user who want to use Microsoft Project, so I asked them for their installer and installed it. while installing I encountered this error, I pasted below the screenshot.

Error 1920. Service 'Office Software Protection Platform' (osppsvc) failed to start. Verify you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

When I checked on the error, it involves for some privileges. Before doing it, I restarted the computer, so as to get a fresh start. when I checked on the rights, the user name that I used has all the rights. So I re-install again the application, but same error message appeared on the screen while installing, I am now run of ideas on the issue.

Please help me find a solution.

MS Project problem on installation

This error occurred during installation because of the Antivirus block the application or there is incompatibility process between Windows and Microsoft Office 2010. Windows must be in Service Pack 3 so that you can continue installing the Microsoft Office 2010.

Sometimes the CD installer is damaged. I hope these tips can help you. Just try to follow the first post.

Thank you and God be with you.
