You can try the Windows Installer clean-up utility, available here.
Only use it on programs which give you this issue.

It may be as simple as reinstalling the offending application also.. But, the windows
installer cleanup utility is what fixes this problem, but usually includes a reinstall
of the software also.
Most times when I use this cleanup utility, I uninstall the software application,
if possible, then run the cleanup utility and remove the entry pertaining to the
application, then reinstall the application.

All these solutions seem viable. However, when the Installer starts going crazy on
my system, no application is indicated.
How can I tell which application is the offender?
