Cannot install VIPRE software; Impossible to uninstall Norton 360 (Error 21)

I had AVG security software uninstalled on my PC running Vista Ultimate. Trying to install Vipre antivirus, to halfway through the installation, I am advised to uninstall Norton 360 (14/09/2008) before the end of the installation.  Trying to uninstall Norton 360 (which I've never installed on my PC), 21 error seems to prevent the elimination of this ghost software...  Using the search tool does not work.   A few days ago I saw the Amazon UK site for the current cost of the Norton 360 for 5th edition.    Anyone have any ideas on how to remove that point of thugs?    Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for your suggestions...  Under Program Files (C drive), I traced the supply of the software Norton 360 under "Setup my PC" and deleted these files.  However, looking at the Norton Removal tool seemed a trifle compkicated and may have caused other problems. So instead, I downloaded the FREE Avast internet security software on my Vista PC and no problem.  Also, prevoiusly, I had successfully installed VIPRE on my other two PC running XP., on a trial period of 15 days.    My idea is to keep things works fine without hassle.

  • Impossible to uninstall Norton

    I did a reset of my laptop, lost I've installed all the programs.  While trying to install my Microsoft Antivirus trend, it has not transferred due to a failure to uninstall Norton antivirus. I tried to uninstall previously, I thougth I did, but when the trend Micro Titanium fail to install, it displays a window telling me, asked me if I wanted to uninstall Norton, I've tried several times, but it didn't. It seems to me, as Norton has a function to avoid or to cheat customers to prevent them from unistalling the program. It was a pain and a waste of time. It really upsetme, to the point that I would never know Norton. Please, the HP software that is installed with this anoing free trial Norton in the system, should not be there, or at least it should be optional.  Out of 3 notebooks we bougth of HSN, all have the same address. Now, we want to use the Trend Micro Titanium Antivirus, which is the software solution that adds a life of Pc technical support subscription. Now, I was not protected because of this undesirable Norton.  Although I call for support for them, they sent a link to get rid of Norton, but it did not work. I am very angry to lose time to do all this work, calls, this report by filling... I'm busy and can care for Norton, but to hate him. Please take note of this issue and do not expose customers time to lose with the unwanted stuff... as if I have time to waste.

    Hello

    Try to download and run the Norton Removal Tool on the following link.

  • Cannot install HP Software Solutions for C5550 on Vista

    I recently bought a new Photosmart C5550 all-in-one printer. I spent two full days, try to install the software on my Vista desktop. After countless hours on the phone with technical support to get the same results (fatal error & Windows Installer problems), I was told to contact the computer manufacturer. Another two hours on the phone with tech support and was told to reinstall Windows. I've done reluctantly. I received all of the updates in my installed security software and then tried the printer... same results as before reintsalling Windows. I tried to reformat once more, updates installed and then installed the printer drivers & software before installing security software. It actually installed and worked very well.  Last week, I discovered that there is an updated driver and software of the printer so I decided to install it, don't think not that I would have the same problems. Is it installed perfectly on my laptop (which she had done before), but would not install it on my desktop. After another few hours in line with the technical support I uninstalled all the software and printer drivers & stop all unnecessary processes (including security software), but still no luck. I am now without a printer on my desk and can't figure out what to do. I don't want to have to reformat again and try to install. I wonder if I uninstall my security software if it works because the printer seems to install without security software installed. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you!

    Just to update, I registered & re-recorded MSI before installing since that was the error message that I kept getting.

  • Impossible to install security software 1603,0, 0 x 000 errors

    For the last 3 weeks I tried to install Trend Micro Internet Security software. Initially the 1603 error is out of my attempt to upgrade my version 3.51 to the latest version 5. Software Trend Micro uninstalled my old version then threw a 1603 error when you try to install the latest version. I tried this site and had a broad Trend Micro remote support. The last attempt to remedy the situation failed after 2 1/2 hours of support away from the Hungary and about 5 trying to clean my registry windows and re install my deep security software. Their developers (Tren Micro) came to the conclusion that the fault lies with the installer of windows on my pc. Even if I ran sfc/scannow and no error was detected, I can't get any software security at all to install not only Trend Micro.

    As I mentioned briefly earlier that I did everything what to do in what concerns the cleanup of registry entries and temporary directories that is the first step to try to resolve these problems

    I need options. Windows reports under its security suite that Trend Micro is installed, but not in a format it recognizes. This is misleading and does not allow me to make one installs clean

    Any ideas?

    This is just to inform everyone that this problem has been resolved. Extended support Trend Micro resolved after suspending system restore facilities which I think affected the file access permissions. My security software is now installed, updated and working properly

  • Update to Windows 7 RTM failing - error 80070652 - cannot install new software or run Windows Update successfully.

    I upgraded from Win 7 RC for Win 7 RTM on my 64-bit machine from Dell and started installing all my software.  Everything was fine until I started Windows Update and had a list of 15 updates that needed to be done.  Several have had agreements that I had to accept, he wasn't the normal process of "update in the background.  I had to leave and is concerned to let the process of continuous updating on its own and potentially hang, so I cancelled it.

    Since then, I can't install any software or to upgrade my system.  Updates fail with the error message "WindowsUpdate_80070652" which seems to be undefined.  In some cases, I get an error message another installation is running and the current installation or update cannot be performed until the end of the current installation.

    I restarted my dozens of machine time and then immediately began installing or upgrading windows - without success.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  It seems that there is a dead plant that does not block updates and installs.

    It is not an error "undefined":

    I acnt install software application such as adobe dream weavercs3, antivirus, JDK1.5 etc...

    Hello Amir

    You always struggle to install the software on your computer in Windows 7 RC?  We had several post on Adobe CS3 software installation problems.  You must ensure that you have no other product from Adobe installed before you try to install CS3.  If you have Flash, Shockwave, Acrobat is installed, they must be uninstalled.  Once you have removed Adobe programs, you should be able to install CS3.  What antivirus program you are trying to use?  It is one of the programs that have been tested and work with Windows 7?  Here is a link to a page of software compatibility to Microsoft Windows 7 RC:

    You may think using DTM WITHOUT Media Manager. Use the procedures to uninstall/install sdgardne, but download DTM without Media Manager.  Once done,

    Go to options-support card on your BB
    The settings should be:

    Media card support: on
    Encryption mode: no
    Mass storage Mode support: on
    Auto enable mass storage Mode when connected: Yes

    Once activated, when you connect your BB via the usb port, a windows Explorer will open and show your device as another drive on your pc. Then, you can simply drag-and - drop your photos, videos, music, documents between your pc and the BB.
