@Charles ABurton: I have shared your question in the other thread so that it can be managed with less confusion.  Please provide details of your problem, including which version of Windows 7 you have (including 32-bit or 64-bit) and why you are looking for this particular stri8ng in regedit.

Have you seen this article--> https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2642495?wa=wsignin1.0 If Yes, what happened when you followed the instructions.

I also I have a problem installing programs.  I get the notice "could access the windows service install. There is no 'MSIserver\WOW64' in regedit, and 'windows install' does not exist in the service. So far, none of the fixes work for me so I am at a loss.

Method 2 in the answer in this thread can help:

    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.

    Uninstall utilities
    http://www.SnapFiles.com/freeware/system/fwuninstallers.html

    If a program has a uninstall.exe, so it's interesting to try it too.  Have you tried right clicking on the shortcut to the uninstall.exe and selecting the option "Run As Administrator"?  Perform, even if your user name is an administrator.

  • How to determine if an installed program is Legit or necessary and I have a problem with Microsoft Essentials as well.

    I went through the system to my PC and while watching the programs installed in the Control Panel, I noticed several strange programs I don't remember installing.  I have just suffered the wrath of a restoration complete in October, Yes, it was terrible.  Anyway, how can I know if the installed programs are useful or harmful to my PC?  They are legitimate programs? If legit, are necessary or simply make my PC run slow?  Any help would be greatly appreciated, I can't really experience the collapse of PC that I just went through.

    In addition to the above PC problem... recently when I boot my PC, Microsoft Security Essentials - REAL PROTECTION IS ALWAYS TURNED OFF TIME?  I uninstalled the program and reinstalled it twice... maybe, I missed a step.  In any case, there has never been that big red "X" showing the real-time protection is disabled and my PC is at risk?  Comments or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so very much!

    Thank you and happy new year!

    Hi Andi Bow,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    Based on the information, there are several odd programs that installed on your computer without your information and Microsoft Security Essentials is always off.

    What programs you are skeptical about?

    You can find these online programs to see their credibility. You may also let us know if there is any doubt.
    You can also try to run an online scan to check if the virus is completely removed from the system.

    Check out the link to launch the scan:

    Microsoft safety scanner

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

    For more information, see the article:

    How can I help protect my computer against viruses?

    About the issue with Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE), you must post your query in the Virus and malware Forums for assistance.

    Viruses and Malware

    Hope the helps of information.

    Have a happy and prosperous new year!

    If you need further assistance, please answer and we will be happy to help you.

  • Firefox tab disappeared, have mysearchdial. No program of mysearchdial in installed programs impossible to uninstall. no way to manage add-ons with or without tab firefox orange

    Could not find a way to get rid of mysearchdial. no tab orange browser firefox so can't get to manage no Add ons and any program mysearchdial in the installed programs in Control Panel, so it is impossible to uninstall.

    tried to change the home page but no matter what I do, mysearch dial remains there. went to mysearchdial web page, followed their instructions, no use. Tried to run malwarebytes anti-malware and it has not seen anything like that. my browser opens really slow. The Microsoft Security Essentials is not helping either. I tried booting from the ERD, start did not find any problem. the search on my computer for mysearchdial or something unknown shows nothing. ran put utilities at the point in the registry, found nothing.

    What should I try next? Thank you very much.

    Hello

    The easiest way is probably to make a Reset of Firefox. This will return Firefox to its default settings. Your personal data (bookmarks, history, etc.) will be saved, but you will have to reinstall all your addons.

    Firefox - modules to reset and refresh settings

    If you don't arrive in the Firefox Orange menu to do the reset and then close Firefox and then hold down the SHIFT key while you open it. This will bring up a menu that gives you the ability to reset Firefox.

    The problem is that (as you've identified) there is a chance that Firefox will get hijacked again if you are unable to remove malware from your computer.

    You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    I also suggest looking at the list of programs for starting and turning off one you don't want to or don't recognize. All that is originally from the diversion of mysearchdial is likely to be listed in the startup list, because he wants to run as soon as the computer starts.

    I hope this helps. Let me know if not.

  • Satellite P300-133 - problem installing Win Xp

    Hello

    I have a problem installing win xp to Satellite p300-133.
    To resolve this problem, I have tried the solutions:
    switch to ahci mode in bios and incorporating storage drivers compatibility intel to the installation cd xp with nlite, but none of them solved the problem.

    Laptop computer starts from the cd of xp and xp installation says "program Setup inspects your hardware configuration" and then a blank black screen comes.
    After that, the installation does nothing and waits indefinitely.

    Any ideas on this problem? Thank you.

    Hello

    > switch to compatibility ahci mode in the bios and the integration of the storage drivers Intel to xp with nlite installation cd, but none of them solved the problem.

    The two methods are good!
    You can install the Win XP without drivers Intel Storage Manager (SATA drivers) but in this case the SATA mode must be on compatible mode.
    It works for sure!

    The second method is the installation of the SATA drivers with nLite (drivers can be integrated into the new drive Win XP).

    I put t understand why this doesn t work on your laptop. I think it's a problem with your Win XP drive. Contains this Win XP SP2 or SP3?
    If this isn't the case, then you should use nLite to include min the Win XP SP2.

    Check it!

  • Problem installing PCI-6220

    Hello

    I have problems installing a PCI-6220. The card has been installed a couple of years on a PC and rarely used. I withdrew from the it and connected to a new PC (Intel core i3 2.93 GHz, Windows7). After installing the card on the new PC in a first time, I could read the name of PCI6220 under 'Devices and interfaces' (in the program MAX) but I´d not been able to define it as a device. So I tried to remove the card and plug it in again and now the situation is even worse, I only see an "unidentified PXI system" in the program of MAX.

    Any idea what bad and what can do to make sure that the card does not work properly? As a reference, I need to connect to a CA-1000 enclosure housing a CB-68LPR device.

    Thanks in advance,

    G.

    Install the latest (9.3) DAQmx-drivers for your PCI, which could help.

  • Problems installing Vista SP2

    OK, since the release of SP2 ive tried to install the Windows Vista Edition SP2 Home Premium x 86.

    Ive tried: [all this unsuccessfully]:

    -Installation in safe mode

    -Installation after removing my anti virus program.

    -Installation after you change ownership of all the contents of the C: drive to my account.

    -Install the standalone version, all languages

    -Install the standalone version, 5 languages

    - And things more...

    Some notes on my system important:

    -Its a preinstalled Windows Vista Home Premium [do not know if it came with SP1] install on my laptop: Acer Aspire 7730 G-644G100MN.

    -As it was an English version of Windows Vista, when I arrived [which is weird, because I live in the Netherlands] I changed the language in Dutch using Vistalizator, the only program out there that allows you to change the language of your windows installation.

    -Windows Vista installs each update without any problems except for the SP2... I get the error message is: 0x800F0823

    -Some time ago I discovered something very strange in my laptop: the owner of the contents of the C: drive has not been saved to the Group administrators, but something else [he could not find the owner, something like that]. So I changed the property to my account [which caused some viruses to wake up, somewhat, but those that have been cleaned in place], which enabled me to access my program of all the files in the folders [which I couldn't do before, and that was the main reason I changed ownership: I was not able to run or install programs] really weird stuff]

    However today still sometimes the change of property to the non-administrateurs, which is really weird... And annoying, for example, yesterday I installed the game blur, but I wasn't able to run it because I was not allowed access to the game files, even if im an administrator!

    So I changed the owners once again, and then everything worked fine.

    -In addition, before I changed the property, I did a sfc/scannow, who found errors, but has not been able to correct.

    I guess that's about it.

    Please help me solve this problem!

    Kalaar,
    What you can try to do is to uninstall the pack of Vistalizator program\language.  Then run SFC again and if it can solve the problems, then try to reinstall SP2.  If SFC finds problems and can't always fix them after the Elimination of this program, then you need to reinstall Windows.  You can perform upgrade inplace or a clean install, and all updates, including SP2.  Thislink gives information on performing an inplace upgrade.

  • Installed programs do not appear in the Windows Control Panel

    I use Windows XP SP3.

    When I install a program, in this case my Mustek BearPaw 2400TA more scan, it does not appear in Control Panel. I reinstalled the software of the scanner several times, but still, it never appears in the control panel

    Also, is there a way I can have complete control on the control panel? To activate the newly installed programs, etc. ?

    Hey bud,

    Please write in the Microsoft Community Forums.

  • After a fresh install of XP SP3, does not work my previously installed programs. What should do?

    Had a problem when the power is gone, just as I have to boot my system. It resulted in a corrupted system file. Tried to fix it by using the original installation of Windows XP SP3 CD, but arrived at a position where Windows wanted my password but then refused to recognize. Repeated the process twice more just to be sure, and then made a new installation instead. Well it worked for me get into Windows, but now none of my previously installed programs want to run. Well, so far I tried Office 2010, work, Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 and Adobe Reader without success. None of these or any other program on the machine come in the list of all programs and I am betting that goes into the Windows Explorer, select all the executable files of installed programs and click on run will fail for them the same as it has for the ones I've tried so far. Is there a solution that will enable Windows to recognize programs that were already installed when I ran the new XP installation?

    I am at a loss to explain how, if you were doing a re-install of XP destructor, the Program Files folder is intact. Unless maybe you left in the current file system intact before beginning installation (I've never tried this option), but even in this case, it would be wise to start with a folder Program Files new and clean install.

    Assuming that all your data is backed up and verified OK as saved, re-setup (with format) could be your best option. You could make a rod for your own back continuous you, at this time.
