  • Removing the names from the list of my blocked with Outlook Express email sender program Version 6.

    I use Outlook Express Version 6.  I have a list of names in my blocked senders list I want to remove.  I remove them.  Then when I close my e-mail program, the names reappear in my blocked senders list.  Is there a bug in this e-mail program that does not allow me to remove a few names from my blocked senders list?  I don't want to mess around with the registry key.  Does anyone else have this problem?  Has anyone been able to remove some names from your list of blocked senders?

    If they come back, it's a damaged registry key, but it is not very difficult to fix.

    1. close OE, then in Regedit, navigate to this key:

    | - HKEY_CURRENT_USER
    | - Identities
    |-{GUID}
    | - Software
    | - Microsoft
    | - Outlook Express
    |--------------------5.0

    where GUID is the Global Unique identifier for your identity.

    2. under this key, you will find the following between subkeys
    others:

    | - Block senders
    |-----------------------Rules
    | - Signatures

    Select the senders to block key and delete it. Publishers will be empty, but you can rebuild now.

    You can also create a new identity and import all of your messages and address book. The new identity will empty a list of blocked senders, but IMO, the registry key is much easier.

  • How to remove a folder from program files in the C drive?

    I tried to remove CA my computer for several days. I just discovered how to manually remove programs. However, will not remove the file CA in my program files. I give permission, and then he said please try again. I don't use this program because of the large amount of questions and he won't let me download an anti-virus up-to-date program. Help, please.

    You must uninstall the programs start / Control Panel / programs and features - and then select the program you want to remove, right-click on it and click on uninstall or delete - otherwise the pieces of the program stay in various places throughout the operating system and in the register - it cause you problems later and taking space without good reason.

    If you really want to remove this folder to appropriate it.

    To resolve this problem with the record of CA, appropriating the folder (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for the folders and files that can change permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can now delete the files and folders.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html... If ownership doesn't work, someone has placed a deny access to all user somewhere safe - you have to find that entry and delete it and then you will be able to delete the files and folders.

    Good luck and I hope this helps!

  • Uninstalled program is still listed under "programs and features".

    Original title: a program is listed in programs and features. It was uninstalled and deleted directories. Yet, it still shows in the list programs and features. How can I remove it?

    I had installed this program before. I thought I had uninstalled. I tried to re-install this program, but cannot. I checked the list of programs, and it is still in the list, after being uninstalled. How do I remove it from the list?

    Hi n4ctf,

    Take a look at this link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314481

    Edit the registry to remove an entry. This link refers to Windows XP but I checked with Windows 7 and it works so it should work with Vista.

    Once you have access to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall you will see a list of numbers. You will need to go through each of these numbered editions to find the program you want to remove. Click on a number in the left column, for example {08D605B4-DCD1-451F-ABD7-52E6BB868E4E} and you will see then the details is in the right column of the registry editor. See the 'full name' so check to see what the numbers program refers to.

    Normally, I would recommend that you try to reinstall the application rather that tinkering with the registry, but as you have already tried unsuccessfully to re - install, change the registry could be the last option. By the way, before making any changes in the registry, make sure that you back up the registry first. This link of my website will show you how to back up the registry:http://vistasupport.mvps.org/backup_the_registry.htm
