  • My OS windows 7 does not work very well, can not install or uninstall programs

    My OS windows 7 does not work very well. Cannot install or uninstall programs. A week back ilivid software got installed, guess this particular software has caused the problem. Cannot run the task with the option in the control panel. I don't want to format my system since there are a lot of personal data. Instead of looking for any option of repair for BONE. Would appreciate if you can let me know the best way for recovery.

  • Can not install or uninstall the CD player

    I got DC drive works fine on my computer so I have upgraded to Windows 10.  I hated it, so I started Windows 7. Not sure if this has anything to do with the problem I have now, but in its current form, CD player will not work. When I try to uninstall it or reinstall I get this message "the component you are trying to use is on a resource network unavailable", and he asked me to enter a different path to the folder containing the installation package "AcroRead.msi." I searched my computer and the only file that appears is that gives me a message saying 'cannot find path {file name}. Check that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'AcroRead.msi' in a folder from which you can install the prodcut Adobe Reader Xi (11.0.13). "I really have no idea what to do next. Useful ideas on how to get the drive DC works fine on my computer again?  Thank you!

    You can try to use this tool first remove all traces of your computer:

    Then you can download the complete player offline installer from

  • Firefox does not, despite having worked before, and I can not install or uninstall upgrades.

    Using Windows 7 Home Premium - have not had a problem prior to the opening of Firefox, but now it does not open. When I try to uninstall or install the update I get the message that I need to first close Firefox - it does not run and I rebooted and use management tasks without success. FAQ solutions all seem to require that you be in Firefox, which is not possible under these conditions.

    You are welcome.

    To do this. Click Start--->Search---> all files and folders and type in the search box ""msi.dll " without the quotes and click on search." When the search is complete, right-click on one of the msi.dll file and select Properties. Click on the version tab on the page that has ensued. If the version is earlier than 3.1, you must download and install the latest version: WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2 - x 86-.exe from the link below.
