Impossible to install any program to do with windows or printer drivers?
I can't get windows updates keep giving me. I think I'm up to about 55 so far. I can't get the drivers installed by windows - they install form Epson, but then a pop-up at the bottom of the screen says unable to install the drivers and it cannot recognize my printer. I also tried to download Heimdal and is not yet open. I tried to find WindowsUpdate.log to see what is happening and what I can see is not permitted. I even tried to download - System Update Readiness Tool for Windows 7 for x 64 based systems (KB947821) [October 2014]
and who says windows cannot open this file. So I don't have an idea of what has gone wrong with the system and I don't really want to do a clean install as I have so many programs it takes me forever to re - download all programs and find all the codes, etc.
So is there someone who can solve this problem?
If so, I would be extremely and eternally grateful.
thanking you all in anticipation of a good answer.
Hello
Thank you for the update.
Program installation or removal fails due to corrupted registry or install blocked key. Follow these methods and check if that helps:
Method 1: Unregister and register the Windows Setup program again
- Press Windows key + R, type MSIEXEC /Unregister. and then click OK. Even if you do it right, it may seem that nothing is happening.
- Press Windows key + R, type MSIEXEC/REGSERVER, and then click OK. Even if you do it right, it may seem that nothing happens, or you can briefly see an hourglass. After you run this command, the operation is complete.
Method 2: I suggest you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software. The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Warning: Data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.
I hope this helps.

I try to install Rockwell Automation Studio 5000, but I get an error message saying "Studio 5000 is not supported on Windows Visa without Service Pack 1 or higher". However my PC is under Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) and Vista that is covered by the requirements of this program.
Any ideas?
What is the version number of Studio 5000 you have?
You can try to install using the "compatibility mode".
What is program compatibility?
Program compatibility is a mode in Windows that allows you to run programs written
for earlier versions of Windows. Most programs written for Windows Vista are also running Windows 7,
but some older programs might run poorly or not at all.

How will I know whether to install any program in the 64-bit or 32-bit section in Vista?
original title: where to install?
How can I know weather to install any program in the 64-bit or 32-bit section?
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

Research program in the original installation of Win XP SP3 caused the computer to freeze if the search engine has been expanded. So I downloaded and installed Search 4.0. It seems that works do not exactly the same. IF I do not enlarge the window, it doesn't seem to work, but any change in the size of the window causes hang up immediately on the computer. Must pull on the supply cord to recover.
As for updates, here's a list updates failed, I tried to load onto my system through Windows Update:

Currently, the update process hangs up with 35 updates of uninstalled "high priority" pending, which apparently will install not until the (s) that failed is installed, if my machine seems totally non upgradable...!
That seems to relate to programs of the .NET Framework. Remove all would fix them this...? What I would lose without .NET programs installed...?
Hello
What is the error message accurate/complete you receive the Windows Update issue?
Depending on the issue with Windows search:
Method 1:
Step 1: Check in safe mode
You can also check if the problem persists in safe mode.

Step 2: Perform a clean boot and check.
To help resolve the error message, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

Impossible to uninstall any program in the menu programs and features
Recently my Windows Vista acted and allow me to uninstall (initially wanted to uninstall Photoshop Elements 5.0), but then I tried other programs and I can't uninstall any program. I get the message:
Updates installed
You don't have sufficient access to uninstall (program name). Please contact your administrator.
I looked online for possible solutions. I first tried to enter the administrator account hidden, I did, hoping it would solve the problem, but the message still appears when I try to uninstall a program in this account too.
Then, I tried to open the UAC, hoping it would allow me to turn it off, someone said that may work, but it will not open when I click on it. There the small windows vista security shield icon next to him, making me think that it won't open because I don't have administrative privileges to open it, which is meaningless, because I'm connected to the real hidden administrative account.
I hope someone can help with this problem. Thanks for your time.
Hi sman009,
Uninstall is a folder in the left in the registry pane when you navigate to the specified location.
I suggest that you look carefully and go to the right location you will find the key.
