• cannot update or uninstall the PC iTunes

  I can't update or uninstall iTunes from my PC (Windows 10).  I have version 12.4.3.1.  If I check the updates, I'm invited to download 12.5.1, but when it finishes downloading the program says there was a download error and I have to use tools/download only.  I do this, but clicking on the file downloaded Update Gets a similar generic download message (no error code), such as download a new installer for iTunes.

  If I try to uninstall settings, I get the message that ' errors occurred during installation before iTunes could be configured ' and I should re-run the installation program. If I try to uninstall it from the control panel I get "Fatal error during installation" and the remains of program (and can be executed).

  Help.

  I have the same problem. In addition, utility software from Apple does not update iTunes 12.5.1. Running Windows 10 build 1511.

• cannot update or uninstall iTunes because "iTunes.msi" not found - HELP Please

  November 8, 2011 - on window XP

  "iTunes.msi" - not found - and therefore prevents the update AND uninstall iTunes!

  iTunes.msi is setup.  Normally, it is missing because you didn't upload.

  However, in the rest of the error message you forgot, the problem probably turns out to be that you have downloaded a new version of iTunes and it will not be installed because it's hard to uninstall the previous version.

  It's always a good idea to post the full error message without paraphrase.  It also helps others help if you describe the circumstances surrounding the error.

  Assuming that my crystal ball reveals precisely your problem, the solution is the following:

  This message occurs when the registry key pointing to iTunes uninstaller is corrupted (or uninstall of iTunes has been moved or deleted).  The simplest thing to do is just clean things, and then try again.

  Used to have a tool just to do this, called the Windows Installer Microsoft Cleanup utility.  Apparently, however, when this tool has been used (I think with MS Office), removes sometimes more he was supposed to, and that's why Microsoft has removed the tool of its download servers.

  The Windows Installer Cleanup utility is always available from http://majorgeeks.com/Windows_Installer_CleanUp_Utility_d4459.html , or you can use the free Revo Uninstaller.  Before using or the other of these tools, create a restore point from the system, backup the registry with C:\WINDOWS\ERUNT, or (if you can afford) creates a full disk image or a clone - just in case.

  Here are the usual directions to perform a "clean installation" of iTunes, based on Support of Apple HT1926 article.

  Go to control panel > Add/Remove programs
  Remove these applications:
  1 Apple Software Update
  2. Apple Mobile Device Support
  3 Hello
  4 iPod for Windows (this may or may not exist, be it, it is not necessary, then we can remove it)
  5 iTunes
  6 QuickTime

  Open my computer > C: > Program Files
  Delete this files (if present)
  1 iPod
  2 iTunes
  3 QuickTime

  Empty your temp directory:
  Open my computer > C: > Documents & Settings > username > Local Settings and delete the contents of the folder called "Temp".

  If you don't see the local settings, enable hidden files:
  Tools > Folder Options > view tab
  Select Show Hidden Files & folder, and then click OK

  Once this file is empty, restart the computer

  [See note above regarding cleanup utility]
  Download & install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility:

• Cannot update or uninstall Adobe Reader 9 on Windows 7

  I get a message to update Adobe Reader, but when I try I get a message:

  «Update to uninstall adobe could not open not hkey-local-machinesoftwaremicrosoftwindowscurrent\\\ version\run\optionalcomponants\imail»

  I also tried to uninstall through Control Panel. Watch it uninstall with a progress bar, then the same error message at the top, and the progress bar goes in the opposite direction until eventually there is no uninstalling Adobe Reader.

  Is there another way to uninstall and reinstall Adobe Reader? Are there instructions available somewhere to uninstall Adobe Reader manually include the registry keys that you want to uninstall Adobe Reader 9? I've seen instructions step by step for older versions, but I don't know if those would be the same for later versions such as Adobe Reader 9.

  You can try the following.

  Remove all traces of drive (and not only the program) of your system using the Windows Installer Cleanup utility. It is no longer supported by Microsoft because it can produce problems with Win 7, but you can always download it from places like

  http://MajorGeeks.com/download.php?Det=4459

  Then download the installer of the reader of

  http://get.Adobe.com/reader/Enterprise/

  and perform a clean installation.

• Cannot update or Uninstall Macromedia Flash player!

  Hi people!

  I have a problem with the automatically installed Flash Player. I use a Qosmio G20.

  During the installation of a new program (financial Office Lexware) this program has tried to update Macromedia Flash player to the latest version. But the former Player uninstall was interrupted and the following message appears:

  The feature you are trying to use is on a network unavailable resource.

  Click OK to try again or enter a different path to the folder containing the installation package 'install_flash_player_7.msi' in the box below.

  Use source:
  C:\Sysprep\

  Close this window ends the installation process of this new program.

  After that, I opened the list of installed programs to uninstall Flash manually, but with the same result.

  Then I searched the internet for this install_flash_player_7.msi. I found the file but I can always remove or update Flash Player.

  As a last chance, I backed up all my data and used the recovery DVD to reinstall the whole system. Without having to install any additional application, I took a look at the list of installed programs, and guess what? The Flash Player has already been installed, so it is part of the recovery DVD.

  But why it can not be uninstalled? I really need to get rid of the former player to be able to install Lexware financial Office...

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  Yvonne

  Hello

  Well, the message the component you are trying to use is on a network resource that is not available is displayed because you install Falsh from a resource, such as a network server, functionality which is no longer available during installation.
  If you are disconnected from your network resource or point of installation, please try using another way or place to download flash.

• Cannot update of Skype

  Hello, sorry for not knowing where exatcly to put this, so you're free to move around in this topic.

  I wanted to ask how I can solve a problem of not being able to upgrade my Skype. Whenever I try to update, it gives me this message:

  A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file:
  C:\ProgramData\Skype\{a a lot of numbers and letters}\SkypeSetup_6.21.0.104.msi

  Thing is the file in the directory simply does not exist, so I don't know how can I do to update Skype. Can someone help me?

  A computer restart is not an option, so I can't use the program. I managed to uninstall Skype normally, so I no longer need help with that.

• Since the installation of Firefox 4 Beta 5, the Add-ons Manager is empty. My modules, however, seem to be installed and working, but I cannot, install or uninstall or configure them.

  My modules, however, seem to be installed and working, but I cannot, install or uninstall or configure them.

  Try to force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed modules.

  1. Open the profile folder for more details on how to access see article profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data .
  2. Closing Firefox, then delete extensions.sqlite (you can also delete extensions.cache, extensions.ini and extensions.rdf if they exist)

  When you restart Firefox must be rebuilt on the list of installed modules.

  If this does not work, you can have an add-on that is causing the problem, try the options in article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

  If you type Subject: addons in the address bar that brings to the top of the list of modules? I saw a list of empty modules if Mr Tech Toolkit is installed, accessing the Manager add-on by typing about: addons in the address bar is a workaround with this add-on installed. The author of this add-on is working on an update.

• Get error 1603 on put and cannot can not uninstall the previous version.

  I was not able to upgrade to the latest version of Skype. Uninstall Skype fails.
  
  I have now deleted manually Skype and all entries in the Windows registry database, to try to resolve the problem with the installation in a new version of Skype.
  However, download and install the latest version of Skype always give error 1603.
  
  This is quite annoying because I use Skype in my work. Even more, my Skype number now does NOT work because of this fatal update to a new version.
  
  One of the "crew" of Skype have an idea on how to get Skype installed without checking first to uninstall previous versions?

  Have you really tried to use LessMsi to extract the Skype.exe file and Login.cab of the msi installer and place these files in the installation of Skype folder or any other folder on your computer?

  The only that Skype needs to run, are these 2 files.

• Microsoft Silverlight not updating and uninstalling

  I noticed that Microsoft Silverlight updates have not been installed for some time now and remain in the updates area important. So I tried the update and came with the file don't are not recognized or changed.  I thought then that I remove the program and all over again, but then I had this box (with the big red x in a circle) warning message on my screen

  Hey Lord Dracon,

  Try to uninstall Silverlight with Revo: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html mode advanced that sometimes helps when normal uninstallation methods fail.

  If this does not work or if it does but you have problems to re - install Silverlight (possibly also because of Windows Installer), then check out the Silverlight Forum at the: http://forums.silverlight.net/13.aspx.  You can search for previously responds to questions or post your own new thread (like here).  I draw your attention to this subject more precisely which seems to contain information that should help you: http://forums.silverlight.net/t/234395.aspx/1?Cannot+update+uninstall+install+Silverlight+.

  Hi DavidValentine,

  Check that you have removed all other anti-malware real-time products that were already installed on your PC, including free products / trial that were installed when the PC was purchased (Norton, McAfee, TM, AVG, OneCare, Malware bytes (paid), etc.).

  Note: If you use more than one antivirus or antispyware program at the same time, your PC may know a decrease in performance, become unstable, or restart unexpectedly. Before you install Microsoft Security Essentials, or if you want to solve problems with Microsoft Security Essentials, including the update of issues, you must first completely remove your PC Internet security programs.
