Argument not valid error when installing a printer

I use Windows XP SP3 and have problems with my install shield.

Printer media tells me that my install shield does not communicate correctly and the error is probably in my PATH or the registry.

Any help would be useful.

  • install the shield product argument not valid error

    I use Windows XP SP3. My shield of installation does not work properly. I was installing a printer at the time, but this has nothing to do with the printer or its drivers.

    Technical support told me that the problem is probably in my PATH, but could be in my registry.

    Any ideas?

    How to remove an update for Windows Vista

    If the fix works, I recommend that you 'hide' it so that it not be reinstalled automatically.

    Instructions below:

    If you don't want Windows to install an update, you need to hide.

    1. Open Windows Update by clicking on the button start . In the search box, type Update, and then in the list of results, click Windows Update.

    2. In the left pane, click Find updates.

    3. When Windows finds updates for your computer, do one of the following:

      • Click the link that tells you important updates are available if you have some updates to hide.

      • Click the link that tells you optional updates are available if you have optional updates to hide.

    4. Do right click the update you want to install, and then click Hide update. The next time you check the updates, the update will not be automatically selected or installed. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  • 0x000000c1 error when installing the printer

    Original title: OS-Included HP Printer Driver does not install

    I recently had to reinstall my Windows 7 computer due to a hard drive failure, and on this new installation of my printer driver will not install.  Nothing has changed in the physical environment, and the software environment is essentially the same as the previous installation.  When it is plugged in, the ball "new hardware found" appears and then is replaced by 'driver have not installed ".  If I go into the properties of the device, the driver information tab, it says that no driver is installed. Press update driver, search windows update, download a driver, try to install and fails.  Printer comes with a yellow triangle throughout this process.  I got an error 0x0000000c1 (not sure of how many zero in there) several times, trying to force installation of the driver. Any attempt to interact with the printer stops the entire print spooler service.  The printer is a HP Deskjet 6540 and uses the oem7.inf driver file.  Two other printers (both brands Canon) are connected by network and their drivers installed without problem.

    HP support site is useless, as it just says: "install the supplied driver OS." And said nothing else.  I also saw on other forums that the 0x00... 00C 1 error indicates a corrupt driver file, but I forced winupdate to download a new driver and install it, and it still does not work.

    Any help is appreciated.

    ANSWER well, workaround.  Thanks to a guy randomly in HP forums:

    For all those who felt fossoyées by the driver windows 7 for hp deskjet 6540 printer I went manual Add a printer and used a model in the 6900 Series. It will not solve the problem since you will lose some functions anyway because you do not have an official update from hp (please hp if you're here, nowhere do us justice). It is a very good printer and mine is more or less like new since 2004.

  • Argument not valid error of DMG

    I have a Macbook Pro 2012 model and all my programs are up to date. But this week, seem all my DMG files don't load to give an invalid argument error. I thought it was because the downloads were incomplete, but it wasn't the case, as the other applications I had already downloaded earlier this year did not work also. All these problems started when all of a sudden I was locked on Spotify and had to reinstall it but cannot get it load. So I can only use spotify now on my iPhone.

    I restarted the computer, but without any result. My DMG files are configurΘ for dΘmarrer with Disk Image Mounter, so this isn't the problem. Its really frustrating.

    But this week, seem all my DMG files don't load to give an invalid argument error.

    I don't know what you mean here, all my DMG files? You try to update your Flashplayer (depending on your screenshot?)

  • Library of MobileDevice iTunes not found error when 'install the app on iOS connected... »

    After having recently updated iTunes to 11.0.5.5, I get the following error...

    "iTunes MobileDevice library not found. Please check your installation of iTunes"

    .. When you select 'Install the application on the iOS device' 'Post Publishing' section on the 'Deployment' tab in the "AIR for iOS parameters" dialog box

    This used to work? Any ideas?

    For now, I manually use iTunes to add the file to the device, but this slows down workflow considerably.

    Thank you

    Alan.

    installation version 12.1.3 iTunes could not solve the problem for me.  I needed version 12.1.2 to solve the problem:

    (1) uninstall Apple Application support 32 bit / 64 bit, Apple Mobile Device Support, updating the software Apple and iTunes

    2) go to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files and delete the Apple folder

    3) go to C:\Program Files\Common Files and delete the Apple folder

    4) go on C:\Users\\music\iTunes and remove the .itl file

    (5) download and install the version 12.1.2 iTunes: iTunes download Apple 12.1.2 for 64-bit Windows.  Make sure that you uncheck the option to let iTunes update automatically.  Update kills the Flash Pro iOS usb communication (at least until adobe figures out the problem and releases an air sdk that solves the problem).

    (6) restart your computer

    (7) attach your phone to your computer via usb and unlock your phone if the "trust this computer" prompt appears you are ready to exploit the trust.

    (8) open Flash Pro > Debug > Debug Movie > on the device via USB > click Refresh device list if your iOS device does not already appear.

    (9) in the case of a failure, open file Explorer and make sure that your iOS device appears in the file Explorer.  If it is not the case, your connection usb-win has a problem.  Check your connections and the usb cable, make sure that you have enabled "trust this computer."

    From what I can remember, make sure you have nothing through the gutter (on a document with the pages). And I want to erase anything out of the editing table for good measure. Is the number of pages in your document is divisible by 4?

  • Photo not valid error when launching an application

    Hello

    When launching an application through the web browser, I get this weird error.

    Starts the RDP session, the profile starts to connect, and as username and group political stuff ends, I get a little popup with the title 'Quest vWorkspace Shell' and "invalid image" message.  At the bottom of the screen is a pnshell.cmd minimized command prompt that is sitting there until I click OK in the popup mentioned previously.  Once I click OK, then the vWorkspace application will launch successfully.

    The pnshell.cmd has the following inside:

    REM added by RMC to prevent permissions app sprinkled with admins

    c:\Windows\syswow64\Ifmember administrators

    If not ErrorLevel 1 Goto SkipAdmins

    c:\Windows\SysWOW64\pnshell.exe

    I'm on vWorkspace v8.0

    The RDSH is 2008 R2

    Any ideas why I get this error?

    Thank you!

    Hello Terry,

    Thanks for the reply.  We use Sophos, but I added the file C:\Windows\SysWOW64\pnshell.exe to the list anyway, restarted the TS, and it's always as problem.  I also added pnstart.exe to the list too.

    I noticed now that this happens only to a specific user.  Other users seem to be the problem... So... don't know why, but I hope it's a?  If you have any ideas why I would be eager to hear.

    Thank you

    Print the SQL string that you establish, cut and paste it this output in SQL * more and see if it runs. This may show you that you should remove the single quotes around the name of the table %s in the Python file.

    Hi Aditya,

    You should not need to use a shared secret for 2 apps running - it's

    specifically for external authentication. All you need is 2 applications,

    both have the same roomURL. An application can have the publishing server, the

    others may have of the Subscriber. I suggest that you spend some time to read the

    LCCS Developer Guide, or listen to the video tutorials we provide.

    hope that helps

  • Installed Adobe on the K drive, now my computer has assigned portable K:\ drive to my hard drive. I am reader not valid error 1327 J:\.

    Last year I buy Nero software, and it was installed on my laptop hard drive which has been J:\.  Now for some reason, my computer has received a portable K:\ drive on my hard drive.  So, when I try to open the program, it gives me drive not valid error 1327 J:\.  He also stated that there is insufficient space in J:\, AND it gives me a message "fatal error in installation.  Why he did it assign a different drive letter?

    I don't know how to change the registry, because I'm sure that WHAT I have uploaded in this device will give me a similar error code when I try to use it.  Help!

    original title: problems in car

    Hello

    You must be sure that programs use the drive letter that you define or
    you will need to change it back when needed. The latter would be the
    more great pain in the long term.

    Most programs allow you to change the data reader. If the reader is a program
    installed on and then after he moved to the drive letter, you will need to re - install the
    program.

    I hope this helps.
