Installed DivX media program by mistake. How to uninstall it?
I tried to uninstall a program, I downloaded by mistake, but the uninstall does not work in this instance. It has always worked before, but not on this program. The program is Setup to DivX. Can someone help me?
Hello
· What exactly happens when you try to uninstall the DivX program?
· You receive an error message when uninstalling the program?
You can follow the methods below and check if they help to resolve the issue.
Method 1:
If the program does not uninstall completely the first time, sometimes running the uninstall program a second time will succeed.
Method 2:
If this does not work, try uninstalling the program while Windows is running in safe mode. For more information, search help for "safe mode".
To start the system in safe mode see link below:

I installed Windows 8.1 on my laptop. I had opinions on my icon Hp that action was necessary. He said... 'install physical media' how accomplish this? Is there something I need to buy? ex. USB/DVD? Please help me! I am out of warranty and cannot afford it right now.
Hello and thanks for posting back. Your problem is you're not going to find the drivers that are compatible with windows 8 or 8.1. Your system is only released with support for windows 7. You can find the drivers somewhere on the internet, that can work. This will involve some research and they will not be supported. The only thing I would do is to reload your original operating system and use compatible drivers available for your laptop HP support page.

Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

How to install Windows Media Player 12
Windows media player
Please note only once;
looking at my list of program I have Windows player 11 and window media player 11 times by using the memory space is this necessary? can I remove these and replace with media player 12? What problems I have to
Hi patriciabrown,
Windows Media Format Runtime 11 is for people who want to use the latest Windows Media Player codecs without installing Windows Media Player 11.
Windows Media Format runtime is required for WMA (Windows Media Audio) and WMV (Windows Media Video). It is also recommended that you keep Windows player 11 and window media player 11 runtime.
You cannot install the Windows media player 12 on Windows XP because there is no standalone package out yet, and this is only available in the Windows 7 operating system.
