Solution: “The Feature You Are Trying to Use in on a Network Resource That is Unavailable”

Computers and Internet 1 Minute

Other day Zoom Outlook add-in was trying update itself and keep failing with “The Feature You Are Trying to Use in on a Network Resource That is Unavailable”. It keep asking for downloaded setup/MSI file.

Well…I found the solution that works for me; deleting a Freaking Registry Key. Here it is:

  • Open Registry Editor
  • Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE >> SOFTWARE >>  Classes >> Installer
  • Find the installing software/program name in the hive under Installer key.(e.g., for software find it under Products, for Microsoft update find it under Patches).
  • Once you find the GUID for the failed software install, Select it and Freaking Delete IT.

Try installing the software again.
