Can I uninstall updates and updates of security since a year or two ago without messing anything up?
When the computer made on security updates or updates only on can uninstall. Some are for about a year. Thank you Sharon
The older updates, less likely you could uninstall because subsequent updates have older as a prerequisite. It really depends on the chain of dependencies for the individual updates in question. You can use system restore to go back to go further than. If you have backups, you can also use them to go back. If you don't have backups, you should seriously consider getting an external hard drive and a good backup program 3rd party like Easeus Todo Backup or Norton Ghost or Memeo.
Good luck.

How can I uninstall Vista and put Xp back on__
How can I uninstall Vista and put Xp on, Windows Installer could help to put Xp back on?
General information about replacing Vista with XP:
A. on a computer OEM (HP, Sony, etc.):
1. go to the OEM Web site and find the XP drivers for your specific model computer. If there is no XP drivers, you can not install XP. End of the story. If there are drivers, download them and store them on a CD - R or USB thumbdrive. you will need after installing XP.
2. check with the OEM - either since their technical support site, either as - to see if you will cancel your warranty if you do this. If void you your warranty, you make the decision.
3. If the OEM supports XP on the machine, call them and see if you can qualify to demotion and ask them to send you a XP restore disc. This is by far the easiest and best way to put XP on the machine.
4. if XP is supported on the machine but OEM does not have a disk to restore XP for you, understand that you will need to buy a copy of XP to your favorite online or brick/mortar store retail.
5. also understand that you will need to do a fresh install of XP, so if you have any data you want back first.
6. If none of the above applies to you because you can't run XP which return (see point 1 above), the computer of the machine and buy a running XP instead.
B. on a generic/home computer built (of the non - OEM company)-you will need the drivers for all your hardware. See the second link below for more details:

If I bought a computer with windows 8 is already installed (windows 8 sucks) can I uninstall it and install windows 7? Windows 8 has to be the worst software ever. It is like going back to the iceage of computers. The LAGS and timing on is horrible. I expect right cruse, that she does not exist. It's like a person driving a car with their foot constantly on the brake.
You will first need to go to the website of manufacturers for your model computer and first find out if there are native drivers in Windows 7. A large number of computers that are preloaded with Windows 8 have no native driver support for Windows 7 by the manufacturer. If there is no native driver, you will need to consider returning the machine and buying a machine preloaded with Windows 8 Pro with downgrade rights to Windows 7 Professional. Or look through the catalogue of manufacturers for systems already preloaded with Windows 7, usually the business sector will have these options.

Can I uninstall CS5 and CS6 before downloading CC?
I have Master Creative Suite CS5 (drive) installed on my iMAC running Mountain Lion 10.8.5. Some time ago, I subscribed to the creative cloud and installed CS6. Problem it caused me to have to wipe the hard drive and restore from the backup drive. My last backup was in September last year which was before I installed creative applications Cloud CC. I would like to install the CC apps. Uninstall the CS5 and CS6 apps first? At this point, neither CS5 or CS6 applications have been updated.
Hi Stormy_Weather,
It would be best to uninstall CS5 and CS6 before installing creative Cloud applications as previous versions are restored from a backup who could cause problems.
Kind regards

I tried everything I know to uninstall the new version of Firefox. I also installed Aurora beta and it had the same behavior, and I managed to uninstall that. I can't open a browser ff to work on it with the help of a large part of your support information. I click the icon, but it does not start on the desktop but the clock running as Task Manager. I have to end task in Task Manager to close it. I can not uninstall and tried the system restore, but this also does not work due to another problem with my antivirus program.
If this is on a Windows computer, see this link from Microsoft;
The problems that the programs cannot be installed or uninstalled -
It's probably very easy to understand this and to uninstall the updates to date, but, well, I am slightly tech-illiterate! I use my Norton Toolbar a lot for the sites I visit frequently, and this no compatibility issue is the same reason I stick with Mozilla on Chrome, but now I can not even use my Norton with Mozilla information. Thank you.

A former programmer, I am appalled that such a poor version would be released! It reminds me of dealing with Windows 98!
Sorry to hear that. You can return to the v3.6.16, but in the end, support is removed for that eventually.
To return to an earlier version, download Firefox 3.6.16
Then go to add/remove programs and choose to uninstall Firefox 4.0, but don't check the option to delete your bookmarks, customizations etc. Those who will be selected for you so that you can continue to use them when you reinstall v3.6.16
Restart and then run the downloaded v3.6.16 file.
Check from time to time if there is any security updates released for this version by clicking help | Look for the updates
