All off the installation of Host 7.2.2 its been problematic. During the update or the all new installing procedure it stops and asks me to give the path to the "installer.msi". I search for it, find it and it says that it is not ok.
I'm afraid I can't use Remote Utilities any more since the last update.

Thanks for your help.  The uninstall tool you suggested did work. It helped me to fix the Remote Utilities Host update (and installation from zero too). The only inconvenience was that it did not mentioned the "Remote Utilities" software by name.  It mentioned some "unknown name" software that I had to try by elimination until I chose the one that refereed about Remote Utilities.

Thanks for your help.  Best Regards.

Hello Rossana,

I’m glad to hear we were able to help!

The only inconvenience was that it did not mentioned the "Remote Utilities" software by name.

Perhaps, this was caused by some of the installation files being damaged which had also caused the update issue. To avoid similar issues in the future, please make sure to add Remote Utilities to exceptions as described in the guide linked above.

Let us know if you have more questions.
