I can not install any programs in windows 8. I can download from the download section, but they will not run

I tried disabling Norton, closed and restarted windows - nothing works. Can I install the Java exe file but not from anywhere else.

Giv me like a hint what is wrong. I also cleaned the registry.

Have you tried to create a new user account and try to install from there (just to see if it works).

If this does not work, try to do a refresh to see if it solves the problem:

Here's what happens when you refresh your PC:
· Your files and your personalization settings do not change.

· Your PC will change back to their default values.

· Applications on Windows Store will be kept.

· Applications that you have installed discs or sites Web is removed.

· A list of removed apps will be saved to your desktop.

These steps will take you through refreshing your PC:

· Press the Windows key + C on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

· Click settings

· Click change PC settings

· Click general in the left column

· Under refresh your PC without affecting your files, click Start

Then follow the instructions that will be provided on-screen to cool your PC.

  • I restored a few messages deleted from the Recycle Bin, but they do not appear in the original folder.

    I accidentally put the retention policy of 30 days for the wrong file, including over 1000 deleted messages. I found the messages in the trash and returned in the original folder, but all do they not appear. I immediately made a copy of the file folder in my profile, and if I look at this file, I see the missing messages. I tried to rebuild the .msf associated file and by removing the .msf file, but the messages are not displayed. How to restore access to these messages in Thunderbird? Reconstruction of the index of global data will correct this?

    If anyone is interested, I was able to restore the missing files by editing the X-Mozilla-Status codes in the file in the folder. Bit 0 x 0008 flags every message deleted. I was able to do a search/replace global for each code containing this bit in Notepad to get Thunderbird for re - index deleted messages. Of course, you'll want to do this on a copy of the affected file and keep a backup while you make the changes, just in case. Oh and do not compact your messages until you make sure that it worked.

    Hello

    If you have security software (antivirus, firewall etc.) you can try to disable temporarily for a few minutes, visit a secure site (for example https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird), download and check. See also this.

    If it works you can then try to remove any existing Firefox instances and its process/associated files in all modules/areas of different configuration of the software security as a process of monitoring, sup/led process control, virtualization, HIPS etc., in addition to the main security software control panel. Instead create new rules entirely authorized/reliable for Firefox + its associated processes in all the different modules/panels - one installer of Firefox as well as all real/original exe (Application) installed and DLLs (Application extension) is digitally signed by Mozilla Corporation (right click > properties > Digital Signatures). Even otherwise, some security software may also ask again when Firefox and/or its sup processes are started, and you can be able to allow/trust at this time. Please see this.

  • Windows 7 I can download applications, but can not install internet begins

    I upgraded to windows 7 and activied Microsoft security virus app too... now I have problems. I can download apps, but impossible to install their... internet itself emerges... I wish that I wouldn't have installed these apps... tried to disable security and download another virus app... but wont install the program or other programs... tried system restore to before I did stuff, unsucessfull... help!  what I can do... tried to contact a support technician live... but no luck...

    What Microsoft security virus app?  Is it only Microsoft Security Essentials?  Another may be a fake anti-virus, especially if it signals you infections and wants that install you something.  It is a scam.

    If this is Microsoft Security Essentials, then uninstall it from the control panel and immediately reinstall from Microsoft Security Essentials.

    Check your control panel > programs and features for what you only install and know to uninstall these now.  If in doubt ask back.  The only necessary tools which guarantee the best performances are in clean reinstall Windows 7

    Download, install, update and run full scans with Malwarebytes free Version

    and AdwCleaner , which will confirm whether you are infected or not.

    Then run file System check (SFC) Scan and repair the filesystem - Microsoft Community.

    If necessary put in Safe Mode with network to get the above done steps.

    Ask questions back if necessary and report back all results for possible further steps.

    Hello DaphneanEpiphany,

    The application that you are installing will sort it out for you. Unless the software is told explicitly 64-bit in the box, you can be assured that the software will be 32-bit.

    If you are running a copy of Windows Vista (or 7) 64-bit operating system will install the software in the right folder so I don't worry about this.

  • Cannot install any program or make any change on my standard account

    Hello

    So I recently reinstalled my Windows, the installation was not made by me. This person created one account we'll call user for simplicity, giving him Admin privileges.

    When I noticed it, I created another Admin account and demoted user a standard account. But now, when I tried to install any program, I have some sort of error: "unable to write to the file...". ", I also tried to delete a random file/shortcut and got some kind of error saying that the system is allowed to do this.

    Is there a way to fix this?

    I had rather not my experience of user account with administrative privileges for obvious reason. What I want is just having the system queries the user the Admin password when you install a program, at least, to have access to what is in the directory of the user.

    Thank you for reading this and help me

    Hello Nelson.

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    According to the description, you can not install any program or cannot make changes on your system.

    An administrator account is a user account which allows you to make changes that will affect other users. Administrators can change security settings, install software and hardware, and access all files on the computer. Administrators can also make changes to other user accounts.

    As you have an administrator account on your system. I suggest you follow the steps below and check if it helps:

    1. right click on the Start button and select (Admin) command prompt.

    2. on the command line type: net user administrator / Active: Yes and press enter on your keyboard.

    This will allow your construction in the administrator account. Restart your computer and log in with the administrator account. Once you are in the Build in Administrator account, you can change the type of original Standard user to administrator account administrator and save it.

    Once you have made the changes successfully, the Build in administrator to disable the account by following the steps below:

    1. right click on the Start button and select (admin) command prompt.

    2. on the command line type: net user administrator / Active: no and press enter on your keyboard.

    This will disable the build in the administrator account. Restart and log in with your user account.

    Hope the above information has been useful. If you need assistance, please let us know and we would be happy to help you.
