I can't uninstall Thunderbird to my Windows programs "Uninstall list"; Why does not uninstall and be removed from this list?
Very frustrating... under windows ' programs/uninstall a program "list, Mozilla Thunderbird is still listed AFTER that I have removed completely (I thought) from my computer. I clicked on 'uninstall' several times and nothing happens. I can't take the fact that Mozilla has set it up so that it can apparently be deleted from this list... What is everything? I tried to research the problem, even by using your Web site without success. All what I want to do is get out of my list to uninstall/change. I used this program AND will not use it. I don't want this program on my computer/list period. I would appreciate your help.
It is a problem with the management of Windows applications. Mozilla does nothing to interfere with the installation/uninstallation process.
You could re - install Thunderbird so re-synchronization of the list of applications, then uninstall again, or you could use a utility to remove from the list.
A search of thunderbird.exe will confirm whether or not it was really deleted, but you may need to disable all the fool-proofing that implement Microsoft for not to see the true state of the file system; Configure to display hidden files and the extensions of file to start.
Thunderbird is almost independent. You are free to delete manually the folder that the application resides in if Windows fails to uninstall it for you, but that will not solve the incorrect appearance of thunderbird in the list of installed applications.

First of all, you are mistaken when you say that the PC does not start.
This is clearly starting. The problem comes from Windows, not with the real PC. It's actually a very important distinction!

My iPod is connected to the computer and it works fine with iTunes. But I can't get the music in Windows Media Player to iPod. When I try to sync in Windows Media Player, it does not recognize the iPod, and I can drag files from WMP to iTunes or the iPod.
You cannot synchronize an Apple product in itself using WMP, unless you buy a 3rd party. You must use iTunes.

Equipped with Windows Vista. Stop down my PC two day and when I booted up it would not start. Click on the button of power again and it started in safe mode and asked me to run a repair program that I made. After that Firefox does not open and I get the message "XPCOM is missing." everything else works. Tried to uninstall Firefox and cannot do it either. the uninstaller from Control Panel does not work and I found the Mozilla Firefox uninstall Help files and which will not be executed. I get the windows on the screen asking me to continue, or cancel and when I hit continue the dialog box just disappears and nothing happens. Can not download Firefox exe file again. I am running Trend Micro security PC.
You need to reinstall, you don't, because none of your bookmarks, history etc. WILL NOT BE LOST.
Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.- Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
- Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
- Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
- Windows:
- C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
- C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
- Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
- Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
- Windows:
- Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
- Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
- Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

Can I uninstall and reinstall iTunes
When I open iTuned, I see a spinning reel. I have to force to leave iTunes to close. How can I uninstall and reinstall iTunes in El Capitan?
iTunes is now part of the operating system and cannot be uninstalled manually. To reinstall iTunes, OS X will need to be resettled by the recovery mode. Reinstall OS X cannot be the appropriate to take troubleshooting measure. It seems that iTunes becomes insensitive to the launch, try to test the issue in a new user account.

How can I make my printer Brother HL - 5150 D work on Windows 7, he said: it is not compatible and I cannot get
Microsoft has decided to change the "internals" of "device drivers" how to "interface" with Windows and devices. If the material does not have a driver for Windows 7, it's a 'result' of the device 'manufacturer' is more "willing" to support the older device. Microsoft does not have drivers for Microsoft not branded device.
