Windows Installer Error Messages (for Developers)

This article is intended for software developers who are using Windows Installer to build installer packages for their applications.

Note

If you need support for a Microsoft product, please go to our technical support site at support.microsoft.com.

The error codes detailed in this topic are returned by the Windows Installer, and have error codes of 1000 or greater. The error codes numbered 1000 to 1999 are ship errors and must be authored into the Error table. The error codes numbered greater than 2000 are internal errors and do not have authored strings, but these can occur if the installation package has been incorrectly authored. For error codes specific to the Windows Installer functions MsiExec.exe and InstMsi.exe, see MsiExec.exe and InstMsi.exe Error Messages. For a list of reserved error codes, see Error table. You can search the Internet or the Microsoft support site for solutions to many of the messages in the following table.

Developers of installation packages can also test the internal consistency of their packages by using Internal Consistency Evaluators. For more information, see Internal Consistency Evaluators - ICEs.
