Cannot install Microsoft SilverLight in the Windows XP computer.

Original title: I can't uninstall windows starlight.

I use Windows XP and want to watch Netflix on my computer.  I tried to install the new version of Starlight, but he said I need to uninstall the old version.  I tried to do this (Control Panel/remove programs), but get a message that it cannot find the place (looks like it is looking for a drive).

Can anyone help?

Hello

What is the full error message that you receive?

(a) you can try to remove the previous version of Microsoft SilverLight from Add / Remove programs by following this link.

(b) later, you can download & install the latest version of Microsoft Silverlight and check if the problem persists.

  • Help to install Encarta 2000 on the Windows 7 computer.

    I bought a whole new, retractable Encarta 2000, assuming it works on Windows 7. After being told several times that it was installed when it wasn't, that I came across a "compatibility" option Now it is installed and it works - except for the help file, which is "incompatible".

    My real concern is that I have to run from CD. I was not offered the ability to copy all the files from the Windows Explorer. Is there a way to get there now?

    I vaguely remember doing this many years ago.

    How can I fix?

    PS: I am running Microsoft Windows Vista 64 - bit (ENU) with Service Pack 2 (SP2) on a HP Pavilion dv5-1199eg Entertainment Notebook PC.

    Problem solved on 08/27/2009 by installing Microsoft Windows 7.

    PS: As far as I know you can resolve it by installing Microsoft .NET Framework, whose absence in the system when you try to install Microsoft Encarta is the reason for this problem (you may need to perform a clean installation of Microsoft Windows in order to be able to do).

    Since it is an old game, it is possible that it will simply not work.

    Try to use the compatibility options to run the installation - the game is designed for Windows 98, but try different options and if that does not work:

  • Problem install Microsoft silverlight

    Hello world

    I want to use the generator of the user Web interface for my application. To use what I install Microsoft silverlight. I downloaded it and I installed it. But, in this website http://www.ni.com/uibuilder/ , if I'm clicking on the "Try it Now" tab, once again, he was asked on the "install the Microsoft Silverlight". When I check in my program files, I see this Silverlight program is already installed. So what is the reason why I couldn't get to the generator of the user Web interface. You could someone guide me...

    The best way to use the generator of the user Web interface would be to access with Internet Explorer instead of Chrome.

    Recent versions of Chrome don't allow plugins NPAPI based (like Silverlight), see here:

    https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/3058254

    There is a workaround solution listed on this page (a way to re - enable Silverlight in Chrome), but ultimately this option will disappear (in future versions of Chrome), Internet Explorer is probably the best bet.
