need help installing programs from the internet for laptop

trying to install a program called Bearshare music downloads. It starts to install it, but it cannot complete the installation because of this consignment: error occurred while attempting to create the directory c:/users/paul/AppData what it means and how to fix this?

As most applications store user related data in there, taking possession of the appdata folder can cause problem to other applications.

Try to run the installer as administrator by right-clicking on it and run as administrator.

If there is a command prompt to change the location and then change the location check if it works.

Try to create a new account user instructions: http://familyinternet.about.com/od/projects/ss/adduservista.htm

If the new user account probably works its a problem with the new user account.

Therefore, you can transfer data from the old user account for the user account and to continue to work normally with the new user account.

Copy files to the new user profile

  1. Log in as a user other than the user whose you copy files to or from the profile.
  2. In Windows Explorer, click on Tools, Folder Options, click the view tab, click show the hidden files and folders, clear the Hide protected operating system files check box and then click OK.
  3. Locate the: file \Users\, where is the drive on which Windows Vista is installed, and is the name of the profile to copy user data from.
  4. Press on and hold down the CTRL key while you click each file and subfolder in this folder, except the following files:
    • Ntuser.dat
    • Ntuser.dat.log
    • Ntuser.ini
  5. On the Edit menu, click copy.
  6. Locate the: file \Users\, where is the drive on which Windows XP is installed, and is the name of the user profile that you created in the section "create a new user profile".
  7. On the Edit menu, click Paste.
  8. Disconnect the computer and sign in as a new user.

    Note You must import your e-mail messages and addresses to the new user profile before you delete the old profile

I hope this helps.

    Hello

    There is no vista download for free and legally on the net

    Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista

    Contact HP and ask them to send you in recovery vista disc to reinstall the operating system back as it was when new

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/contact-HP/contact.html

    ____________________________________________________________

    Solve a common problem of recovery with HP machines.
    If the original operating system is changed to a non - Vista OS, the Recovery Manager cannot be launched either office or by pressing f11 at startup. You can use the recovery disk to restore the computer to the original state of Vista. If you are using a non - Vista OS, you can use a third-party partition management program to recover hard disk space.

    __________________________________________________________

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not an Acer, Dell etc recovery disk

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  • HP laptop, 2000 - 369WM: I need the drivers from the chipset for laptop HP 2000-369WM (REF: QE339UA #ABA)

    Hi, I recently made a new installation of Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 on my PC after formatted accidentally the HHD due to a faulty image system I've tried to restore.

    I was able to download and install most drivers that I wanted from this page on the hp Web site:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-2000-300-notebook-PC-series/5145724/model/5171088...

    However, the chipset driver seems to be missing.

    The processor is: APU AMD E-450 with graphics HD Radeon (TM) 1.65HGz

    This seems to be the information of the motherboard of the pc:

    Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard

    Product: 3577

    Serial number: PCHMCA47V1R2BJ

    Version: 24.49

    I got this information by running the following command on the command prompt:

    > the version of product, manufacturer, get baseboard wmic, serialnumber

    The rest of the plug of pc are on this hp page (its google cache version from the search page empty for me by the way):

  • Need help with upgrade from WXP MCE for Vista Ultimate on Qosmio G30 - 175

    Hi all, I tried to search for the problem following without success so I would be very grateful if someone could help and point me in the right direction:

    "Tried to upgrade XP to ultimate and he arrived at the stadium and BSOD unpacking" Session3_initialization_failed (xxx STOP: 0x0000006F (0xC000009D, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) appeared several times.) I tried again and the same thing happened.

    I have already updated the BIOS and stripped the conflict out of the suite of Toshiba of programs and update Advisor gave the OK on several occasions before attempting this exercise.

    Help... Dave

    I forgot to mention also that I'm running with 2 x 2 GB of Ram and no software or additional material has been added before attempting the upgrade. The medium I use to upgrade is that a full version recently bought 32-bit Vista Ultimate (which also includes a 64-bit in the box version, too).

    I was in contact with Microsoft Support these days and they told me that my hard drive seems to be defective as the reason for the failure of the upgrade. Infact last week with Microsoft on the phone did us try a clean install, but that just lead to me having to give up the clean installs and rescue my laptop back to original XP MCE... flipping hell!

  • Need help license transfer from the old to the new computer.

    What is the procedure to transfer Acrobat X Pro license previously downloaded from the Adobe LWS from one computer to another without having to purchase a new license?

    Appreciate any assistance.

    Hi Mikhail Y.,.

    To the license transfer of Acrobat X from your first computer to the second computer, you just need to uninstall Acrobat X from your first computer and install it on the second computer with serial number.

    With any other software, it is necessary to disable the software in the Help menu of the software but with Acrobat X uninstaller will disable the software of the machine and you can easily activate the same thing on the second computer.

    Kind regards

  • Can someone download programs from the internet by using a standard user account?

    My grandchildren use my computer, & they like to download & install games on internet, but I don't want that they are able to do with my computer. I need to know if using a standard user account will stop to do that. Thanks for the help.

    Yes, they can still download programs but may not be able to install them. An easy way to check is to create the account, connect to it and try it and then you will know for sure.

    don't know if this will help, but had a problem a few years ago with CC not taking my user/login credentials...

    Re: How I fix: you have been signed in about 2 minutes!

    My quick fix 2 years ago (However, I think that Adobe offers software called AdobeCreativeCloudCleanerTool.exe [https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html] tool that automatically makes something similar - still don't know why we users have to jump through 10 different hoops to fix something it didn't break up in the first place, lol)

    From 2014:

    Spoke to the engineer online and he had me remove 1 file, restarted the program CC and it let me log in, a problem fixed.

    In your c:\users\(your \appdata\local\adobe\oobe\ folder user name), I have deleted the opm.db file and restarted program CC and corrected a problem.

    My question was connecting and immedatiately to be told "You have been disconnected" msg with the CC program for my Windows 7 computer.  Not sure if this fix works for everyone, so make a backup of the file before deleting!

  • I'm more able to download programs from the internet.

    I suspect it's maybe because I have now installed VIPRERRescue7156.exe.  If so, how can I disable it so that I can download the programs I want?

    I'm not sure.

    Since this is a problem resulting from this software, then you need to go to its place of origin and look on how to use it and access its settings.

  • Cannot open programs from the internet, like Yahoo, icons on the screen or a task bar.

    Since IE8 download, programs online, such as Yahoo, won't open with a single or a double click.  I have to type prog address area address each time.  I've deleted and reinstalled affected shortcuts without success.  I understand the msg each time: "this file has no program associated with it. Create an association in the Folder Options Control Panel"but it does not work as there is no selection for this in the Control Panel folder Options, which I find in

    "Control Panel".

    -' Folder options '.

    Computerized programs, such as Word and EXEL normally open with a single click in the task bar.

    All was well with IE7.

    Your help please

    Go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/ and highlight the HtM and HtML options and click on each one in turn and follow these procedures to set the default values for Internet Explorer.  If all goes well, this will solve most, if not all, of the problem.

    I hope this helps.

    I work mainly with After Effects and Photoshop, not dipping only occasionally at first and always up to date as and when updates come out. I have an upcoming project, but that has been cut in versions CC (not CC 2014) of applications, and the producer/editor wants to stay in the same versions of its apps. However, it seems that the ability to download previous versions of applications through the creative cloud went. What is the best way to get these back?

    Also! Is it possible to your direct link first CC at SpeedGrade CC 2014? SpeedGrade is the application that need me the changes between versions of the.

    Thank you!

    Hi BBOnlineB,

    If you look closely, there is an option for the previous version in there. Click on that and all applications would have a small ward arrow down on the button INSTALL. You can click on this little arrow down and CC would be available to install.

    I hope it helps.

    P.S. If you use the adobe forums, please check useful/correct responses of staff or assistance, if there is.
