A new version of windows is already installed... where is it?

I'm trying another thread for help, hoping someone can solve this mystery.

I tried 10 (hated) windows and am back on windows 7 but have 'lost' windows mail along the way and can't get it back.

My programs & features show that I uninstalled but I can't install windows essentials 2012 without getting the error code "a new version of windows is already installed." I also get the code0x8007064C of error saying that the source of the problem is mail.

I tried every fix I can find on the internet and in these forums... nothing works. I also found a folder in C:, right underneath the program files, that says that windows. What is 57 000 files and I wonder if it's the windows 10 files. Those who cannot be deleted!

I passed all the quick fixes like turning on windows firewall. I have an Acer PC 64-bit. This is the last thread I posted in and responses from one of the Microsoft team, that did not work:

One of the many reasons to create system images well before the upgrade

As you discovered pull hard hit restore system win-10 bites.

Better now to backup your personal files and clean install win - 7

It is expected by M$, we must now jump through hoops to clean install.

  • Error "a newer version of quicktime is already installed" when you attempt to install QuickTime

    I am running Vista as an administrator.  I was running itunes version 8.03 for several months.  When I went to upgrade to itunes 9.x, I started to have problems. the upgrade was unsuccessful.  I then uninstalled quick time and itunes and all the other software Apple via the Control Panel, windows Install CleanUp and also delete the apple key in the registry under the local computer and the current user.  I did a search on the computer and remove all apple, quick time and records of safari.

    I have also created a new administrator user and tried to install through this user, without success, exact same results.

    When I try to install itunes via the downloaded executable software I get the error «a newer version of quick time is already installed...» »

    I spent several hours on the phone with Apple and they indicated that they believe that vista is now a registry entry somewhere for quick time that causes the problem.  They suggested that I contact Microsoft.

    At this point, I can't use my i touch and would like to get this resolved as soon as POSSIBLE.

    Hello flybydug,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    Apple should have been able to tell where, in the registry that QuickTime written in. However, review the information below.

    1. go to C:\Program Files and delete the entire folder QuickTime.

    2. click on start - search/search - all files and folders, select the hard disk (C :) to look in, type in QuickTime, and then click search / search when list files appear, click right on and remove any that you confirm are associated with QuickTime.)

    3. Click Start, type regedit, and then click OK. Click on the + to:

    Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software
    In the software submenu, click directly on the entry of Apple Computer, then scroll for QuickTime, right-click and select Remove.

    Note: If you click on the + to the "entry of Apple Computer, it will grow and you should see"QuickTime"which are listed there.

    4. exit regedit. It will save their output.

    I hope this helps.

  • New version of Windows Media Player does not support extracting mp3... suggestions?

    My home computer has crashed and had to be rebuilt with the new operating system.  So I got the machine back with what I assume is a newer version of Windows XP.  New but, as usual with MicroSofty, not improved.  Now they apparenty realize that they make any money of format mp3 and everything just stopped supporting.  (imagine if Nikon stopped supporting jpeg format?  ) They try to convince you how fantastic their new WMA file format is and do you want to hunt for a bolt on app which will tear actually mp3.  And where they send that you do have an app to do what I can see.

    I installed lame, but which does not allow mp3 rips.

    Any suggestions?

    There was once a version where you had to manually install the codec BLADE. I thought it was a LONG time there, but maybe he was 10?

    No matter, 11 > 10. Already install and arrive at tear.

    Hello danielbrauer,

    The magnetic site says the requirements are for Windows XP or higher. However, it is not on the Windows Vista or the Windows 7 Compatibility Center.

    You can try the following to see if it will help with compatibility. If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.
    Use the following steps:
    (1) right click on the program
    2) click Properties
    3) click on the Compatibility tab
    (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

    Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

  • MY DELL LATITUDE D610 HOW CAN I UPGRADE TO THE NEW VERSION OF WINDOWS? NOW IT IS WINDOWS 7, WHAT VERSION IS SUPPORT FOR USE WELL ON MY DEVICE?

    MY DELL LATITUDE D610 HOW CAN I UPGRADE TO THE NEW VERSION OF WINDOWS? NOW IT IS WINDOWS 7, WHAT VERSION IS SUPPORT FOR USE WELL ON MY DEVICE? PLEASE HELP ME

    Read this: upgrade Windows 10 Dell Latitude D610

    Take a look at my answer, complete instructions.

    Basically speaking, Dell officially supports Windows 2000 and Windows XP on Dell Latitude D610 (and other models of Dx10).

    However it can really run Windows Vista and 7 at least, as long as you max out the RAM (2 GB, 2 x 1 GB, can be purchased at a great price in eBay) and install the drivers, in particular graphics drivers, look in Device Manager and see what drivers are needed manually.

    If you're lucky to have a D610 with ATi graphics card then you can even run Windows 8 and 10 with all drivers available, and I can tell you that it won't be slow dog not unlike a lot of people say, I don't have something similar (a HP Compaq nx8220) in common use. Keep as lean as possible (not bloatwares, anti-virus etc.) system, and it will serve you well.

    I loaded windows live mesenger. but when I tried to open my account, I got a dialog box asking me to update to the new version of windows live messenger.

    The Messenger IM application was withdrawn and merged with Skype. Users will be asked to download and install Skype...  If you don't use Messenger, you don't have to download Skype (or install it).  If you have been asked to update your account Skype has been updated to it.

    Your contacts and preferences must be migrated when this happens and you can use your Skype ID or your Live ID account to sign in.
    Some features of Messenger will continue not in Skype.

  • What I have to buy a new version of windows, because my hard drive crashed?

    My computer hard drive crashed and had to be replaced. After replaceing I, of course, lost my program of windows 7, it has been installed at the factory. I don't have a DVD. Do I have to buy a new version of windows 7 to 8 or is there a place to reload windows?

    You can opt for a recovery disc from the manufacturer that will put your system to the way it was when it is new, or you can download the version of Windows 7 which shows on the COA sticker and use the code too...

    Make sure that the COA key code is readable before you download the ISO, because without it, the ISO has no value. You should also keep a note of the key code in a safe place.

    Select the version on your COA sticker...

  • Original title: A new version of windows will work with my Windows XP?

    Original title: A new version of windows will work with my Windows XP?

    My computer needs a new startup disk, as I lost the original. Is it possible to buy a new one with Windows 7 or XP?

    Why do you think that your computer needs a new boot disk?

    It would be surprising to find a genuine Windows XP CD in the retail market (a store) these days, but you can make Internet purchases and may not be no need to buy one at all because it's nice to make just a copy of one from a friend.

    It is a good idea to have a couple of different bootable CD in your arsenal in case your XP problems a day and do not start.

    I find that most people can get by with a bootable XP Recovery Console CD you can do (no XP media required) and a Hiren boot CD.

    I've never seen a XP problem that I can't solve if I at least so many of those - and they are free to do, and you don't need any Microsoft original media to create.
