Remove programs from my computer problem

When I go to add and remove programs and try and access the programs I want to delete windows coupon printer. It is said: the invalid control file: C: \program files\coupons\Unistall\uninstall.xml what can do to completely remove these programs?

Never manually delete the files in the Program Files folders!

If you want to uninstall programs, use the uninstall program in the control panel to add/remove programs in Control Panel

  • I have a problem with removing programs from the childs account.

    Original title: how to remove programs from my childs account?  He said that you are not allowed (as it should), but does not other options.

    I was cleaning my sons account and could not uninstall or remove most of the things.

    Its been a problem since I bought this new computer.   Some programs such as Adobe Flash, Chrome, etc. installed on my account, but not on other accounts.       They must be installed on each user account if they choose to use ie: Chrome, Adobe, Java etc.
    When Adobe Flash is installed for IE it is installed only on the user account that is not installed on the computer. So basically 3 accounts 3 downloads.
    Makes no sense.   However, some programs install to all accounts.
    When I uninstall a program from an admin account it does uninstall not other accounts 2 user.
    Logging into his account, I can't remove or uninstall.   I don't really want to delete the entire account.
    How can I accomplish this?
    Thanks, Denise

    Programs may vary in how they handle the installation and the removal of several accounts.
    I suggest to uninstall those that are a problem, temporarily change the account of the child to the administrator, connect you and make uninstalling and then change it back.   Not an elegant solution, but it should work.

  • How can I remove the Windows, "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" program from my computer

    I use another software Photo and picture Windows and Fax Viewer interferes with my work with the other program. Therefore, I would like to remove the Windows, "Windows picture and Fax Viewer" program from my computer.

    Info for WIndows XP - Windows Picture and Fax Viewer
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    OK... but be careful... you'll lose thumbnails of photos in Windows Explorer...
    your 'My pictures' folder... for example... does not display photos.

    And... FWIW... WP & F Viewer is not a program... it's just a .dll file. Disabling
    the .dll file is basically identical to uninstall. (in this way... If you do not
    as the result... you can reactivate).

    But if "gone forever", that's what you prefer... just delete the shimgvw.dll file.

    Attention last... your thumbnails in the Explorer will be gone.

    How... Disable WP & F Viewer

    Click Start / run and enter the following command:

    Type or copy/paste...
    regsvr32 /u shimgvw.dll
    (Yes, the space after the 2 and you is necessary)

    Press on... Come in...

    (You should see a dialog box indicating:)
    DllUnregisterServer in successful shimgvw.dll)

    How... Reactivate the WP & F Viewer

    Click Start / run and enter the following command:

    Type or copy/paste...
    regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll
    (Yes, the space after the 2 and space after that the i is necessary)

    Press on... Come in...

    You should see a dialog box stating:
    DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in successful shimgvw.dll

    To remove shimgvw.dll go to the following folder and do a right click Delete shimgvw.dll.

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll

    If you can't find the path, you must go to...
    Button start / Control Panel / folder Options.
    See tab /... to check "Show hidden files and folders"...

    Hello

    The clean boot method can help identify what is happening when you start or stop programs
    or services. Some programs which have automatic updaters on startup may always be updated
    manually if removed. Startup does not control the Windows updates.

    Be careful that a lot of these programs and services really needs to run and often remove
    a few fact little to accelerate the machine while making the less easy to use machine.

    It's a little more complicated that you might have a few running services that you can do without.

    Also some programs add services that might not really need to start automatically.

    OE is integrated with XP so you cannot remove it. In the control panel. Add/Remove programs. Add/Remove Windows components, uncheck OE to remove access to it.

  • How to remove programs from the system tray without removing them from the startup?

    How to remove programs from the system tray without removing them from the startup on Windows XP folder?

    Hello

    The first step is to identify the program that represents the icon and decide whether it should be in the system tray (most are not necessary). Hold the cursor of the mouse on the icon to see the name of the program that launches the icon.

    The best bet is to click the icon to see if this opens the box of the program options. If so, look for a selection similar to "remove from the system tray.

    Alternatively, you can hide the icons in the system tray.

    Here's how:

    1. right click on the taskbar and select "Properties".

    2. in the "Notification area" click "Hide inactive icons" if she already unchecked and then click on the button "Customize".

    3. click on the ' column next to each of your current behavior and choose one of the three behaviors for each program icon that appears in the system tray: "Hide when it is idle," "Always hide", or "always show".»

    If you hide an icon, but then see it again the next time that you log on to Windows, you may need to uninstall the program to permanently remove the icon. Uninstall the program permanently removes the program from your computer. For more information, see Uninstall or change a program.
