can't completely uninstall AVG software

• Vista: Can I stop/uninstall AVG before you run WU?

  I have an eMachines T3616 with Windows Vista Home Edition, put 2 GB RAM, 120GB HD, AMD SEMPRON 3600 +, Internet Explorer 7.0.6002.18005CO and free Antivirus AVG 9.0.862 upgraded. I don't have a product of firewall-Windows Defender.

  I couldn't update this machine, probably dating from some time in 2009, because after running Windows Update as specified, it hangs during reboot it with fan CPU clocked at a constant high speed and finally stopped apparently by a fail-safe in the material to protect the system against damage from overheating. Only after a long process of repair of the start and am system restore I was able to start using the system normally, even if the problem is exacerbated by the fact that we can not properly keep the room where the computer is kept at the right temperature and moisture.

  I also had problems in the past, when, using particularly heavy-CPU-using applications, even in many cases Internet Explorer, the fan on the CPU at those hours will also work, and in rare cases, stop the system is on top. (I have for the most part mitigated these problems ranging in Power Options and reduce the maximum CPU power, although of course this tends to compromise performance).

  I saw elsewhere that AVG might be the cause of the restart problem, and unfortunately I start other problems ('abandoned operation' error on Web sites, for the most part) that the 'experts' insist only can be fixed by upgrading to Internet Explorer 8.

  If I have to completely uninstall AVG for updating the machine without encountering this problem, or could the anti-virus product just be temporarily disabled before execution of WU?

  Or is there another system problem or hardware I should be addressed?

  I suspect that you see the effects of a long-standing infection hijackware, Bob.

  But since you are now lack more dollars a year of critical security updates, it would be a waste of time (yours & mine) and money (your own) trying to get this cleaned up computer.

  See...

  Cleaning a compromised system
       http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc700813.aspx

  Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) will NOT fix it!

  HOW to do a clean install of Vista: section "If you want to reinstall Windows Vista by running a new installation...". "of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-Vista

  NOTE: If your computer came with a set of disks, there is a hidden partition restore (not to be confused with the restoration of the system) you would use to do the clean install (AKA a "destructive recovery").

  After the new installation, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of EVERYTHING on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) AND BEFORE to plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external drive to the computer otherwise:

  VERY IMPORTANT!-online Any Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the removal tool appropriate prior to installing the updates, Windows Service Packs or IE upgrades AND BEFORE installing your new anti-virus application.

  If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility.

  Wish I had better news for you. Good luck!

• How can I completely uninstall ChemStation?

  I run a program of ChemStation on my new laptop which has vista.  The program used to store information in win.ini on my XP laptop.
  In the past, I just deleted the lines in the win.ini file to completely uninstall ChemStation.

  I tried to use the program on my computer vista laptop and now I want to uninstall the program.  I can see that the program is store information in the "win.ini" file in vista, but according to all the forums, I read that there is no such 'win - ini"in vista.  Where and how are these files stored?  I need to remove this information in order to install the updated of the ChemStation programme.

  Any advice? Thank you!

  Hi KJordan84,

  Please use the forum for Support of Vista,

  You should try to contact the manufacturer of ChemStation.  As you said, it is there no Win.ini for Vista files.  How the program would install and uninstall, you'll need to direct the question to the manufacturer of the software.

  Hope this helps, Kevin

• Photosmart hp7515: completely uninstall the drivers of printers and printers windows 10

  I have upgraded to windows 10 on my laptop. I uninstalled the software for my hp7515 and I installed the HP "PS7510_1315 = 1The function" software upgrade.

  I can print ok, but cannot parse reliably. When I click on HP SCAN the first time that I can obtain a successful analysis. After that when I click on HP SCAN a second time, I get a dialog box saying that the scanner communication cannot be established blah blah blah. Once I have wait maybe 15 minutes or of disconnection and connection, then back on I can complete successfully another unique scan; then the process begins again. Also, every now and then I get a box saying that SCAN to COMPUTER IS NOT ENABLED any LONGER.

  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software a number of times and now he thinks there are three network printers installed. I want to go back to square one and start again as if I never had an HP printer on my system.

  When I try to run a scan on the printer, it finally fails indicating that he has no connection.

  The printer works perfectly with my desktop running Windows 7 Professional and another laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium. Before the upgrade to windows 10 Home on this laptop the printer worked perfectly too.

  Please help me to completely uninstall my software and my printer from my system so I can start again.

  Bob

  This weekend I finally had a chance to reload the software of the printer on my laptop. I am happy to say that so far, everything seems to be fine. I was able to scan several times in a row from my laptop running Windows 10 House, and then with my desktop computer running Windows 7 Professional. Don't know if it has made all the difference, but during the installation of the printer and driver on window machine 10, I had both machines Windows 7 mode 'sleep'.

  Whatever the reason, I thank you all for your help.

• How to completely uninstall a computer labview and avoid to occupy the license

  Hello

  Usually a labview can be installed on three computers. Now I already installed all and will install in another computer. So I need to uninstall one of the three and want to know how can I completely uninstall the labview. Thanks a lot for your help.

  Use License Manager TO deactivate the license.  Will release the database entry of NO, so that you are OK to activate the license even on a new machine (can't really uninstall LabVIEW - the absence of activated license will prevent the use).  As I remember reading the license agreement, you can do up to 4 times per year.

  If you do not have access to the old machine (that is, because it fell from the roof or something like that) call OR service and they can manually remove activation.

• How to completely uninstall Java apples for software?

  Hello

  I installed Java apples for legacy software (https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572?locale=de_DE & viewlocale = de_DE). I no longer need, because I uninstalled the software. I would like to uninstall Java completely too, due to known security issues. I want to get rid completely of Java, as Apple itself can't take it anymore.

  Unfortunately, I couldn't find a clean uninstall routine, there was always some left system files.

  You know a way to correctly and completely delete the mentioned above Java version?

  Thank you in advance.

  Pleasantries,

  Fabian

  Apple Java can be stopped from the Java preferences application in

  Macintosh HD/Applications/Utilities.

  Apple Java unlike Oracle Java is incorporated into the system of exploitation, but cutting the feature will disable entirely.

  If this is not enough, you should make a backup of your hard drive and consider reinstalling a clean operating system instance.

  AFAIKT Apple does not provide any indications to remove Apple Java OS 10.11, but a suggestion on the developers to remove OS 10.9 forum can be found here.

  It is prudent to always back up your system when a suggestion to remove or install something is offered by anyone. It goes without saying: proceed at your own risk.

• Can't uninstall/reinstall software HP Officejet 6500 E709 series Document Manager with CD

  When I originally installed the software I got a D drive, but the reformat/distribution and remove it due to the fact that it is running out of space. Now, I'm just a player C. problem, it's my document Manager software has been installed on the D drive and now I can't "Uninstall" because it shows as already installed using the installation CD. I can not also uninstall through the windows add/remove program. Since I can't find it and cannot uninstall it, I can't reinstall it on the C drive. If I knew the file name of the Document Manager software, I might be able to do a search and find it - the verification of the system shows that it is still "installed". My printer connection still works and I can print ok, but I can't wireless anything, scanner, which is what I'm trying to do. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

• I can't connect to the internet via my host after uninstalled antivirus software and restart

  I can't connect to the internet via my host after uninstalled antivirus software and restart it.

  I use windows xp on my host computer and all computers in my client. After that I uninstalled the free trial NIS version and restart my host, I lost the internet connection. Tried to restore with the restoration of the system, but when I restarted it, it said the system restore could not be made. I changed it then with my laptop and I can connect to the internet as the host.

  Hello

  This can happen if the uninstall process fails and leaves behind a Symantec registry value. See the following Symantec article.

  Unable to connect to the Internet after uninstalling Norton AntiVirus.

  http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/NAV.nsf/8d071816eedd7cac88256c0e005a96e5/751c3298ab99cf7188256d34006702e2?OpenDocument

  Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
