Today, the installation of smartrf flash programmer failed. I got the following error. I thought it was a problem with the installation package. I tried several versions but couldn’t solve it. After looking up the error code, I found that it was caused by the system installation service not being started. Just set it to be started manually or automatically, and then start the service.
HRESULT:0x80070422Cause
Windows Modules Installer service was not started/does not exist
Resolution
Check Windows Modules Installer service:
Click Start button and type “services.msc” without quotes and hit enter
In the Services window locate Windows Modules Installer service.
Click right mouse button on Windows Modules Installer service and click Properties.
Check Service status string in window opened. It should be “Started”.
Startup type should be set to “Manual”.
