    Program installers crashing Windows 10 1709


    Program installers are crashing on my Windows 10 1709, whenever i launch a program installer it opens and when you select where to install it, then click install it crashes (Not responding) others it will start installing then when it gets to the stage of creating the program shortcut it crashes. If anyone knows a quick fix that would be greatly appreciated, otherwise i will do a clean install, i just want to know if there's a quick fix before hand.

    Hi, as you've not upgraded to 1803 yet, begs the question as to whether there's anything more amiss, unless you've disabled updates somehow. (Check your Update History for failed updates). (See below for more on builds)

    Basics: Check your disk. This doesn't take long.
    Hard disk sentinel (trial) is excellent- else for SMART and surface checks Crystal Diskinfo.

    I would suggest trying System Restore if you have that enabled and relevant restore points before this started happening.

    Otherwise you might try the usual
    SFC /Scannow
    from an admin command prompt.

    You could try repairing services only using Tweaking.com's cautious repair tool.

    Then there's an in-place upgrade repair install, tutorial available.
    This keeps all programs and data.

    But you would need a 1709 iso or bootable medium to do that. These are available.

    If you download one now using the Microsoft Media Creation Tool, you would be upgrading to build 1803.
