• Can't install or uninstall anything that requires administrator-level access in Windows 7

  I searched for hours here looking for information on how to correct this problem and have not found a description of the problem that matches mine.  If the answer is already here, please forgive my lack of the needle in a haystack and point me in the right direction.  The operating system in question is Windows 7 Home Premium x 64.

  First of all, the troubled computer is not mine.  It belongs to a friend.  (Norton) antivirus protection has expired some time ago and they now no protection.  I would like to uninstall this program and install a new program of antivirus protection for them.  When I Spear 'uninstall' it in program folder tells me that I have Admin Access.  The account I use is the only account never implemented and the admin account.  There is no password admin, and there is no password for the account.  I know... There are SEVERAL rules of common sense here that were broken, and I'm trying to fix all the.
  I have tried to create a new administrator account using the User Manager and have the same problem.  I saw a suggestion about the click with the right button on the choice of the menu and choosing "run as Administrator".  I have not tried yet since I'm not near the computer at this time.  I'll try to make it tonight.  Even if it works... I am always faced with the same problem of having to reactivate somehow the rights of Directors in general.
  I saw elsewhere deliver once before and ended up reloading the system.  It was riddled with viruses.  I hope that I am not against this situation.
  Thanks to the community in advance for your efforts to help me solve this puzzle and research!

  This is the only account that has ever existed and the User Manager identifies it as an administrator account.  I suspect that this account has lost its privileges admin somehow, be it corruption of any nature or virus.

  You run a show at high risk, while having one single administrator account. It's like having a key for your car. A glitch is all that it takes to create a big problem, but it is so easy to create a second admin account.

  Find it me difficult to reconcile some of the apparently contradictory statements in your report. If it was my machine, then I would do this:

  1 disable UAC
  2. restart the computer when you are prompted.
  3. click on start.
  4. type the three letters cmd in the search box and press enter
  5. type the following commands and press ENTER after each:
  NET user 'Jack' xxyyzz / add
  (to create a new account named Jack with a password of xxyyzz)
  net localgroup administrators/add ' Jack'
  (to promote the account of Jack at the Admin level)
  net users
  (to see a list of all existing accounts)
  6. turn on UAC.
  7 restart and log in as Jack.
  8. check if you still have problems.
  9. If they, restart in Mode safe and check things once more.

• I can't install Adobe Flash Player on Windows 7, IE11

  I can't install Adobe Flash Player on Windows 7, IE11 after countless attempts.  I installed Chrome (which I didn't do, and I still don't know if it was necessary), I updated Java to the latest version, I uninstalled Silverlight (thinking maybe it has been installed by default), I also (temporarily) disabled my Norton protection when installing it the last 4 times, and I made sure that the add-on has been "enabled" in the fall of management modules area , and yet, he does not show it when I do a test of the Adobe system being installed. It also does not appear on my start - search for Adobe programs.  I'm completely frustrated, especially when the web page to download Adobe told me that all the 3 steps are completed and effective and thank you & Enjoy.  I have read the forums as well, but I can't find a solution.  Help, please. Thank you, Bill

  If you do not have an error during the installation of the plugin is probably installed successfully.  It is possible that the plugin is disabled in Internet Explorer or ActiveX filtering is disabled.  Please see: Enable Flash Player for Internet Explorer and ActiveX in Internet Explorer filtering after ensuring the Flash Player is enabled and activeX filtering is disabled, via IE to https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html and click on the "Check now" button  What are the results for Information System?

  Java and Silverlight are two completely different programs, have nothing to do with Flash Player.

  Flash Player is a browser plugin and will not appear on a start - search Adobe programs.  It appears in Control Panel > Add Remove programs.

  Hello ricardoaleman

  The system only comes with XP. HP does not offer Windows 7 as an option and is not likely to have the drivers for it. You can run the Windows Upgrade Advisor, but is not 100% because it will test for contradictory app and hardware that is capable of running. If it passes it still may not work due to lack of driver of the manufacturing support.

• I can't install iTunes 10.7 to Windows 7, 64-bit, install stops at the space required with miscalculation: restoration of action

  Original title: I can't install iTunes 10.7 to Windows 7, 64-bit

  I tried to install iTunes 10.7 on my computer, but it stops when the installation says: calculation of space requirements. Then he said only: "roll back the action", "installation failed." I don't know what is happening because I have more than 40 GB of free space on my hard drive. I also tried with an older version of iTunes, but it keeps doing the same thing.

  You can not install itunes while another update that uses the microsoft windows (MSI) Setup program is running.

  what you need to do is:
  update of windows OS and restart.
  install itunes to a partition with at least 250 MB of free space.

  from: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
  System requirements Windows

  • PC with a processor Intel or AMD 1 GHz and 512 MB of RAM
  • Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista or Windows 7
  • 64-bit of Windows Vista or Windows 7 require the iTunes 64-bit Installer
  • 250 MB of available disk space
