See here in the register; one of the icons has a negative number. Replace it with a positive; most of the files have a 1 icon. Windows will try to guess the icon if you remove the entry altogether.

If this does not apply to your situation, then download the MVP Ramesh script below and run it. This script lists all references to negative icon present in the registry and sends them to a log file.

    22 updates for ms office 2003 dating from 22/01/2007.

    Hi Renee-me,

    I recommend that you do not uninstall the updates that are installed on your computer.

    Windows Update makes the secure PC and helps run smoothly.

    For more information, refer to this link: Windows Update

    We suggest to delete the Windows updates only in troubleshooting an issue that may have been caused by an update. Refer to KB 310312 for more information on how to use the disk cleanup to free up space on the hard disk.

    How to manually remove programs from the add tool / remove programs

  • How can I remove a duplicate 'Add or remove programs"icon in the control panel?

    Whenever I open the Control Panel on my computer, I see two icons "Add or Remove Programs". How can I fix this problem?

    Some of what you see in the Panel comes from Control Panel Extension files found in the folder c:\windows\system32 (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive).  If you look at our you will find some there. CPL files and those who do a lot of what you see in the Panel.

    The applet Add / Remove programs you see displayed in the Panel appears because there is a file there called:

    appwiz.cpl

    If you go to c:\windows\system32 and copy the appwiz.cpl file and call the copy something like jose.cpl then go to control panel, you will see so two addition / deletion of programs listed (and they both work).  Non believers, try it.

    If you see two copies of add or remove programs in Control Panel, both work?

    I don't know what your problem is exactly or how it got that way, but if you use the Windows Explorer and browse to c:\windows\system32 folder, and then click search for .cpl, you will get a list of all the .cpl in this folder files (and maybe also see copies of backup in the dllcache folder).

    Click the size column heading to sort the. CPL files by size, then look for appwiz.cpl in the list and then look for another. CPL file above or below that has the same size and date than the appwiz.cpl file and see what the name of this file is (as jose.cpl).  If there is another file that is the same size and date than the appwiz.cpl, that's your problem.

    If you find it will not know what it is, you can just rename the suspicious file to something ending with an extension .cpl (like jose.xxx) and see what things look like.  If things get worse, just rename the file, the original name and seek some other idea-ers.

    If you find the file that resembles appwiz.cpl and don't know what it is, tell us what you see and that someone can help you to understand.

    Hi DadVQ,

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    This problem occurs because of a missing or corrupted Rundll32.exe file. This problem can also be caused by a virus.

    Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

    Method 1: Follow the steps mentioned in the article below and check if the problem still persists.

    Cannot find the Rundll32.exe file when you open Control Panel

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/812340

     

    Method 2: If the problem persists, I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

     

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: While hard disk analysis if bad sectors are found when scanning try to repair this area, all available on which data can be lost.

  • I can not manually remove a particular program to add tool / remove programs.

    I use XP Pro . Pack 3.

    All, but I can't manually remove a particular program from the add tool / remove programs. The program is "Ulead VideoStudio 8.0"

    The registry of the program given below entry between the quotation marks. I ran Microsoft FixIt (diagnose and correct program installation and uninstallation problems automatically) and she confirmed she fixed the error with success, but as I retried to remove said adding tool program / remove programs, it still reflects the same as we. The problem by deleting this program remained pending.

    SYMPTOM:

    I TRY TO REMOVE THE PROGRAM FROM THE ADD REMOVE PROGRAMS TOOL,-instead of OPEN the "UNINSTALL PROGRAM", SETUP PROGRAM OPENS RATHER AND ALSO request THAT THE registration KEY into the HOUSE.

    AS I ENTER THE KEY of RECORD, THE PROGRAM CONTINUE to INSTALL , BUT ends UP WITH a BOX of DIALOGUE of MESSAGE LIKE "'THE PROGRAM IS ALREADY INSTALLED IN MY COMPUTER:" "

    SO I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE LEFT BUT TO STOP THE INSTALLATION (IT IS NOT AN UNINSTALL PROGRAM) WITH THE REST OF THE PROBLEM UNRESOLVED.

    NOW WHAT CAN I DO ELSE?

    Thank you & best regards

    Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

    I hope this helps. Good luck.
