Microsoft® Exchange Server 2007 setup cannot continue because Microsoft Windows Media Encoder is not installed or a more recent version of Windows Media Encoder is available.

Exchange 2007 setup requires that you install the most recent version of Windows Media Encoder on the server. Windows Media Encoder is necessary to support the Exchange Server 2007 Unified Messaging Server role.

To resolve this issue, install the most recent version of Windows Media Encoder from https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=67406 and then rerun Exchange 2007 setup.
