  • How to close all programs to uninstall end

    How to close all programs for the end of the uninstallation.

    pls advice

    Hello

    It is clear from the description that you want to close all programs to uninstall end

    First of all the notes that you should not close all programs, because many of them are programs of the system and their closure will result in the failure of the system

    1. Right-click your taskbar and click on "Task Manager" or use the combination Ctrl + Alt Delete to open the Task Manager.
    2. In the processes window, select the programs you want to close, and then click "End task" at the bottom

  • Add or remove programs? Uninstall it says invalid or data has been corrupted, will not continue.

    Add or remove programs. The program I want to uninstall it is Printmaster 150.00 MB. I tried to uninstall it but uninstall it says invalid or data has been corrupted,

    will not continue. How to get out he computer?

    If you have the original installation media, a method that often works when an uninstall program is corrupt is to reinstall the app and then uninstall it.

    Otherwise, you could try free Revo Uninstaller or see http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/comphelp/msg081415488395.html (unfortunately, the link to the manual uninstall instructions doesn't work; support for Broderbund software has been adopted by Encore.com, the search engine it leaves something to be desired; however, you can ask for help in a forum yet http://forums.encoreusa.com/).

    How to contact Technical Support (it is not clear if all Printmaster versions are still supported; I would try telephone assistance rather than on the web):
    http://forums.encoreusa.com/TM.asp?m=24071&mpage=1&key=%E5%B8%87

    The following (below the line *) comes from a post on the support forums forum moderator yet.  I have not linked to it because earlier in the post, it is suggested to use a registry cleaner in the manual uninstall.  Certainly, I do NOT recommend to use any registry cleaner.

    *************************************************************************************************************
    NOTE:
    this message does not apply to PrintMaster 2.0 or Print Shop 2.0.

    Broderbund programs, including (but not limited to) print shop, PrintMaster, designer of Scrapbook memories of creation and creator of calendar, are installed in the Program Files folder where most of the software are installed. However, many Broderbund programs will install also files and folders in other places on the hard drive.

    When one of these programs of Broderbund is uninstalled because it is suspected that the installation is corrupt, it's always a good idea to make sure to manually delete all the files and folders stored on the hard drive that are not deleted automatically during an uninstall normal - to ensure that all corruption is removed before the program, is reinstalled.

    Here are the paths of the additional folders where Broderbund software is commonly installed:

    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    and

    C:\Documents and Settings\ [your user name] \Local Settings\Application Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    WinVista/Win 7: C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    and

    C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund logiciels\Print.

    and

    C:\ProgramData\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    **********

    PrintMaster address books can be accessed from and saved to the BOOKS folder that is a subfolder of the folder prints shown below (PrintMaster address books may be accessed from or saved to the Documents folder)

    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    WinVista/Win 7:Print and C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund logiciels\Print logiciels\ C:\ProgramData\Broderbund

    (As you can see, when PrintMaster address books are registered under WinVista and Windows 7, they are saved in two files).

    For example, the address for PrintMaster 18 books would be saved in these folders on WinVista or Windows7 computer

    C:\ProgramData\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\Books

    C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\Books

    To make sure that saved the address books are not deleted during the uninstall process, they must be saved prior to PrintMaster is uninstalled. When these address books are restored, it will be necessary to restore these in the same two folders address books - because an address book will not appear in the file. Open list, if not in the two files.

    Address books print shop can easily be stored in the Documents folder. So, if you have registered your address books in the Documents folder, it is not necessary to save the address book before you uninstall the print shop.

    **********

    Files that control the Project Gallery and the Art Gallery are stored in the folders of ART PROJECTS & which are subfolders of this folder to print

    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\ [your username] \Local Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    WinVista/Win 7: C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund logiciels\Print.

    For example, ART & for PrintMaster 18 PROJECT files would be in this folder on WinVista or Windows7 computer

    C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\PROJECTS

    Because these files can easily become corrupt if the video card driver is out of date or corrupted, the program folder that has been uninstalled (in this case, the folder 18.0) must be removed before the program is re-installed. It is completely safe to delete the folder PrintMaster - because a new facility this 18.0 folder will be performed when PrintMaster is uninstalled.

    If there is only one version of PrintMaster installed on the computer, the PrintMaster folder in this example could also be deleted safely.

    **********

    It is not absolutely necessary to remove the Adbook.exe file that controls the program PrintMaster addressbook. But it's always a good idea to know that this file is installed in this folder

    C:\Program Files\Fichiers Files\Broderbund\UMM

  • I'm trying to uninstall a program and uninstall feature disappeared

    Under control panel, programs & features, it has no option to select ' Uninstall/Change/repair.  I have not had any problems before with the help of this feature.     I've done some uninstalling programs a few weeks ago.    Is it possible that I can have uninstalled the program "uninstall" in error?   Or y at - it such a program?   If there is and that's what's happened, can I get back by returning to the system restore using the date of my possible error?    If this isn't the case, any suggestions on how I fix this?  At this stage I can't remove all the programs.

    Thanks again for your response.   After trying your suggestion and go through the process twice and then give up, this afternoon my function is back on.   I now have my uninstall/change/repair under my programs and features.    It seems to work again.    I really appreciate your help.

  • Can a program always uninstalled the disk hard and if yes, how I find and get rid of it?

    I discovered an avatar IMVU 50 concerts program apparently using half of my 100 GB disk space.  I tried to uninstall and it has disappeared from the list of programs under programs and features in my control panel, but the space under my computer has not reduced 50 GB.  Can we still on my hard drive and if so how I can find it and get rid of it?

    Have you searched all files and folders http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Find-a-file-or-folder

    Do a search on "IMVU" to see if there are remnants of files/folders.

  • Explorer.exe CPU clocked at 44 to 50% constantly. Stops when a program is uninstalled, then start again.

    Hello

    Recently, the explorer.exe was running my CPU to the 44-50% on a consistent basis latley.  This causes some reduced performance - slowness and another assoceated of issues such as the computer running hot, shortened of the battery etc.

    Internet research and research on the forums of MSFT these days seem to indicate that it is a fairly common problem with no definitive answer.

    However according to the responses I've read I have...

    Has participated in a comprehensive analysis of the machine looking for viruses, malware and the Trogans, using my 360 update of Norton, Spybot and Live One Care Saftey Scanner of MSFT focusing on research to the C:\ Virus of the system and system32 folders in Solution Explorer.

    Uninstalled all programs recent and plug-in is installed from around when I first noticed the problem.

    Uninstalled components unnessearry a recently installed HP printer/scanner.

    Momentarily disabled same device printer/scanner via the Device Manager.

    Empty the trash and authorized the Bureau of unnessesarry documents.

    Order of programs unnessesarry (icons) to load in the notification area of the taskbar.

    Deleted the hidden from IE, erasure of history.

    I am aware that the explorer.exe is related on the desktop and the taskbar, but no changes have been made as described above.

    The only thing that I think signifigant and odd, is that the uninstall of a program or a component or plug stops the .exe to run the CPU so hard after a reboot.  However after a shut down and then restart as you execute either during the night comes.

    I tried to use the paid MSFT support chat service but this has been experiancing "tecnicial questions" during the last days and therefore unavalable - then when she came back the line was only avialable in 8 hours, and then only by phone.

    Any advice would be apprecated.
