Chris Lee Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 Hello, I am trying to install the Client for Microsoft Networks on a XP Pro, however, it gives me the error "Could not add the requested component. The error is : The account name is invalid or does not exist, or the password is invalid by the account name specified". How do I install Client for Microsft networks on this computer?

Joel Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 Here's a better question; how did it get un-installed? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/209308-error-installing-client-for-microsoft-networks/#findComment-584439298 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Lee Posted August 27, 2004 Author Share Posted August 27, 2004 Well, it got uninstalled as I had a problem with Norton Antivirus, I was trying to fix the internet to work, but uninstalling the client didn't help. So right now, I'm trying to get it to reinstall now.
