Package Installer Stopped

Glory1 — Mon, 12 Sep 2016 18:12:13 GMT

Can anyone help me, please.

All of a sudden I am having problems with games I download from the Google Play Store. The games download fine. I play them once maybe twice. Then the next time I try to play I get a message *Unfortunately the Package Installer Has Stopped".

At first, I thought it was a problem stemming from 1 games developer as all their games were affected. But I downloaded a couple of games yesterday from a different developer and the same thing happened today.

I have just realised this only started to occur after 2 software updates.

I have reinstalled the Google Play Store but that hasn't helped. Also uninstalled and reinstalled the games and that hasn't helped either.

Any suggestions on how I can sort this? Can I sort this?

Have you got them saved to your sd card or phone?
How much free space have you got?
Go to Settings>Application manager >Package installer and clear cache and data.
