Oracle Universal Installer: Abnormal Program Termination

February 2, 2012 16 Comments

After installing/uninstalling Oracle  there may appear the following alert:

Abnormal Program Termination OUI

This is very known error.

To solve this, do the following steps:

Note that I am explaining the steps for installing Oracle, after you read this you will be able to solve the problem during uninstalling Oracle.

1. Find setup.exe file and go to its properties(right click -> properties)

setup_properties

2.  Go to “Compatibility” tab  and check “Run this program in compatibility mode for:“. Then choose “Windows XP (Service pack 3)” or what ever you prefer.

setup_properties_Compatibility

Click ok.

3. Right click “setup.exe” and choose “Run as administrator ”

That it! Good Luck!
