Product codes are unique identifiers that are assigned to software products during the installation process. They are used by the Windows Installer service to manage the installation, repair, and removal of the software. Each version of a software product typically has its own product code.
If you are experiencing issues with orphaned entries in the Windows Installer database, you can try using Microsoft’s troubleshooter tool to detect and fix installation problems. The tool can be downloaded from the Microsoft support website and is designed to help resolve common issues with the Windows Installer service.
Keep in mind that modifying the Windows Installer database can be risky, and it’s always a good idea to back up your system before making any changes. If you are unsure about how to proceed, you may want to seek assistance from a qualified IT professional.
