    Hello

    I have the same problem. I don't know what to do and I tried to check what other people wrote on online. I think, because another program tries udate and he has a problem, it's the reason why. The message I get between the two is the following:

    "A program cannot display a message on your desktop.

    Under Details of the program, it says:

    Program (s) or device (s) that requires attention.

    Message title: Nokia_Multimedia_Common_Components_2_5-InstallShield Wizard
    Program path: C:\Windows\system32\MsiExec.exe

    This problem occurs due to partial incompatibility with windows.

    Can anyone help?

    For any manual uninstall to succeed, you will need to manually remove all items remaining program where they occur, whether in the registry or in Windows.

    Maybe you could try a third-party uninstall program if Windows cannot do it for you.

    Take a look at some of the free third-party uninstallers part such as 'Revo' that exists in the market.

  • uninstalled applications, received message: Please wait until the current program has finished uninstalling or one. After several reboots, still same message.

    Original title: 2 numbers do not know if they are related

    I have 2 questions and I don't know if they are related. Several days ago I was doing some cleaning and uninstalling programs to free up space. I don't know what I started with, but it seemed to go ok. However, after all that I've tried to uninstall gave me the message: Please wait until the current program has finished uninstalling or one. I rebooted the computer more than once during this period, but it still says that.

    Then my internet explore has stopped working just for 2 or 3 days. I've been using google chrome to access things, but it is rather slow.
    I ran repeated virus and malware scans my norton security and the microsoft Web site, and all said I am clean.

    Yes, it's windows 7 I appreciate the suggestions, but the problem was that he wouldn't LET me not uninstall anything. He gave me the waiting message please do anything, and he's not missing if I stopped and restarted. Finally, I gave up. I saved my files to my external hardrive and just do a full recovery of the computer. He solved the problem of installed programs and the internet problem explore both, although I hoped it would avoid going that drastic.

    Im trying to uninstall a program and when I click on uninstall it says: "Please wait unti the current program is finshed uninsatlling or that" it says always that what I'm doing.

    Hello

    This question has been answered here:

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_vista-windows_programs/error-when-uninstall-a-program-Please-wait-until/9a32c111-F3B7-4079-BB4A-f781fa8f12ee

    I think you should try:

    #1 restart your system and try again.

    #2 check that the software is not running in the background.

    #3 try a 3rd party uninstaller but be careful because you don't have much control over how a 3rd party uninstaller effectively uninstalls - sometimes they leave "debris" that can affect future use.

  • Downloaded 4 fonts on my computer and all the files unpacked, but says I have to wait until Windows is finished with the files

    I downloaded 4 fonts on my computer and all of the decompressed files. However, my computer telling me I have to wait until Windows is finished with the files. I made sure all Windows programs are disabled, but he still repeats the message. Why is it so?

    Hi Clarissa Tan.

    1. What is the complete message you receive?
    2. Which site did you download the fonts on the computer?

    Method 1

    I suggest you to use the link below to download new fonts on the computer and check if it helps.

    Method 2

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your concern on the Forums for Support and sorry about the problem you are having. I went through your post and it sounds like I should be able to help with the problem.

    I suggest you perform the test (Test of the HARD disk) on the computer. Follow the steps below-

    • Switch off the appliance.
    • To turn back press the power button and as soon as you release, keep pressing the "ESC" key, unless a screen comes up, you might want to wait a minute while tapping the button.
    • In the start menu, choose F2 - System Diagnostics.
    • HDD test would be under the Test component. (usually, it is recommended to test rapid and wide, but for now because the PC is new I rather suggest you simply run the Quick Test).
    • After you choose the Quick Test, click on run once.

    If he succeeds, you can proceed with the recovery, part if she fails to give a call to tech support at the number mentioned below, since the unit is under warranty, you should be able to get help to get the drive replaced.
