I just had this problem and trawled google/microsoft for a solution. None
found. However, I fixed the problem by manually extracting the files from
the dotnetfx.exe file and then manually running the "install.exe" file. Hope
it works for you.
I had the same problem too. Impossible to install any software on one o
the five
machines of my office. Upgrades from Microsoft, HP, and othe
downloaded and
executable files (.exe) cannot be installed and i had the sam
message:
"Error creating process <....exe>. Reason
c:\windows\system32\advpack.dll"
No way to resolve the broblem, no solution from Microsoft, a lot o
confusion on the
net. I lost many hours trying any metod but i had no results.
Finally i tried starting in safe mode and as administrator. All wen
ok.
I restarted in normal mode, newly as Administrator and all th
installations functioned.
Now i have had no time to understand why and when this problem happene
or what
prviously installed program caused the error but i 'll try again i
this weekend.
This is not a solution but only a trik to bypass the error

RE Error creating process <....exe>. Reason
c:\windows\system32\advpack.dll
I'm currently having the same. Just tried to manually install Offic
2003 SP2 and got the error. Thought it was a fluke with SP2. But no
see nothing will install. However, this problem seems to hav
coincided with an event that occurred the other day. I was navigatin
the web and came across a some files that landed in my Administrato
Temp area in docs and settings. I took the entire “temp” file and move
it an external jump drive and then merely recreated a “temp” file in th
Doc/settings local settings folder. That is when the problems began.
Update this after further research.
Any suggestions email me

More to this. Point here is that I don't think the files I wanted t
move had anything to do with it. I think there was something going o
with moving the "Temp" folder itself

Hello (new here):
Good pointer. I too am having the same problem with Windows XP 32bit
so I extracted all of the files into a folder and looked at the .ini
file. Here is what I discovered:
[Setup]
ProductName=Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 (x64)
ProductMsi=netfx.msi
ProductRegKey=SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v2.0.50727
ProductRegValue=OCM
ProductSupportURL=http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=45396
DefaultDirInstallToken=URTInstallPath.3643236F_FC70_11D3_A536_0090278A1BB8
SupportWin9X=0
MinNTVersion=5.0
CheckAdminRights=1
ShowFeatureOptions=0
ShowDestinationFolder=0
LogFilePrefix=dd_netfx20
VerboseLog=1
RebootMode=1
BitmapFile=netfx.bmp
CustomTextPrefix=Custom
UninstallWarning=1
ControlMSIService=1
UILanguage=0
The big clue here is "x64" so the version I downloaded is not the 32
bit version. You can try executing the install.exe but it will issue
the following error message "Install.exe is not a vaild Win32
application". Back to the Microsoft website for the 32 bit version.
