How can I install this software in Windows 8?

A
Answer by Alex Urbach

You don't need special instructions in order to install the application on Windows 8. Simply access the download page available on Software Informer, then save the installation package to your desktop or in a location of choice. Locate the install package, right click it and choose Run as Administrator. The installation package contains multiple sub-packages that are necessary for the good functionality of the Recovery Tool, so make sure to accept their installation as well.

Typically, from Windows Vista and above, you have to run installers as Administrator to prevent them from giving errors. Therefore, right click the setup package and then choose Run as Administrator, then follow the instructions and accept any warnings given by Windows.


There is also the possibility that your package might be corrupted which means that you have to redownload it.

I can't install Nokia Software Recovery Tool on Windows 7. It says error code 0x80070002.

Answer by Robert Polubinski

This happens when Nokia Software Recovery Tool doesn't find the required resource on the official website. I've searched on the Microsoft forums and found out that other users had this issue as well and to fix it, a new application called Windows Device Recovery Tool Installer needs to be downloaded.


The 0x80070002 is shown when the application needs a component from the Microsoft's servers and can't find it. This error is similar to the 404 one, when the resource has been deleted, corrupted, or moved.


You can download the correct application from the application's page at Software Informer.
