• Windows restarts when I select the option to remove the program from the Control Panel files

  Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit installed. System of the down stops and restarts whenever I select the option to remove programs from the control panel. First of all, the problem occurred when I upgraded the version of iTunes. Restoration has solved the problem. Same thing happened when I upgraded my version of PowerDVD. Restored again to solve the problem. Just installed Office 2010 and the problem came back. I don't seem to be able to install software without this problem. Any help gratefully received.

  Hi Rugger,

  Welcome to the community Microsoft and thanks for posting the question.

  This issue could be happen if system files have been corrupted or any third party application conflicts.

  I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

  Method 1:

  I suggest you perform a SFC Scan and check if it helps.

  Steps to perform a scan SFC:

  a. click Start, click principally made programs, Accessories, and open the command prompt.

  b. type the following command and press ENTER:

  sfc/scannow

  [The command sfc /scannow. analysis of all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.]

  Once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

  Reference: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

  Method 2:

  I suggest you perform a clean boot and check if it helps.

  Clean boot will check if any third-party application is causing the problem, as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  How to solve the problem by running the clean boot in Windows 7: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: once you have completed troubleshooting, perform the steps in the step 3: to reset the computer as usual.
