Program install error: A file that is required cannot be installed because the cabinet file setup has an invalid digital signature

Original title: Cabinet file setup 11.cab has an invalid digital signature.

When trying to install a software programme on my Windows 7 Netbook, an Installer Information Panel stated "A file that is required cannot be installed because the cabinet file setup 11.cab has an invalid digital signature. This may indicate that the cabinet file is corrupt". Thus the programme would not load. Is the problem with the software or with the Windows 7 Netbook? If the Netbook is the problem, can the faulty cabinet file be removed and replaced with a correct file? If so, how? Please help. Thank you.

Hi,

  1. Which program are you trying to install on Windows 7?
  2. Is it Microsoft program or non Microsoft program?
  3. Are you able to install other programs?

It is difficult to say if the problem is with the software or Windows 7. We recommend you to provide us more details, so that we can research and assist you better.

    Yes i have the same prob. tried everything to disable dig sign.

    And I found solution... If you want to ''install'' during the install when this window will popup,

    press crtl+alt+del , start task manager and close installation window here. The program will not install group at himself, but will install and will works after crking... and you can put start icon on desktop. I did like this and I think there is no way to turn off digital signature :/ ... or maybe you already did.

    cheers
