Re: Error installing MikTex 2.9 64 bit version

Dear friends,


I have used MikTex in the past for my thesis write-up. When I tried to install basic MikTex 2.9, 64 bit version (from the official Miktex link) in my laptop, it did not get installed. Instead, I got the following error. Would you pls help me sort out this error.  Error I got is this:


"C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex/bin/x64\initexmf.exe" --register-shell-file-types --admin --log-file="C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex/config\uninst.log" --verbose:

Sorry, but "MiKTeX Configuration Utility" did not succeed.

The log file hopefully contains the information to get MiKTeX going again:

  C:/Users/Administrator/AppData/Local/MiKTeX/2.9/miktex/log/initexmf_admin.log

You may want to visit the MiKTeX project page, if you need help.

An error occurred:
  source file: Libraries\MiKTeX\Core\Process\Process.cpp
  source line: 159
  message: The executed process did not succeed.
  info: fileName="C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex/bin/x64\initexmf.exe", arguments="--register-shell-file-types --admin --log-file="C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex/config\uninst.log" --verbose", exitCode="1"



Looking forward to your kind help.
Thanks.

Best Regards,
Kalyan
