Download a FREE program called Revo Uninstaller
http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html>. It allows to uninstall any program completely, including the files of monitoring programs. works very well, that you should have no problem more reinstall after uninstall this program.
Just don't allow the computer to restart if the part of Revo Uninstaller asks you if you want to restart now or later. Select afterwards and let Revo finish an orphan looking for registry entries. Reboot after Revo ends.
TIP: If you still think again your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, amplified, to the point, healed, twisted, fixed, enlarged, "swept" or optimized (it isn't), readhttp://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.

Backup of Windows 7 - the system cannot find the specified path, error Code 0 x 80070003
I have serious problems back up my own machine to a share on our FILE SERVER as \\FILE-SERVER\Backup\
I have already backed up another PC using exactly the same settings I used on my PC successfully. So I guess it's nothing to do with the FILE SERVER or the backup settings. There must be something to do with what I'm trying to backup of my machine.
First, some background. This exercise was started when Windows Server 2008 r2 o/s fell one of our servers. I tried to reinstall the operating system several times, without success. In the end, I caught another drive and rebuilt the o/s on the server. Then I got in trouble by promoting to a domain on the network controller. In the end, I've renamed server FILE Server for FILE SERVERS.
We share regularly four records on what is now the FILE SERVER:
\\FILE-SERVER\Backup - a folder where the backups of all other devices are written, so that they will be saved with the server
\\FILE-SERVER\Company - contains all of the data of our company
\\FILE-SERVER\GEM - this is for our own database application
\\FILE-SERVER\Install - contains all the installation files for the software we use
These are all inmates on a RAID 1 array that is separate from the system drive that covered.
On my laptop, I had made these "Available offline" shared folders, while I still had everything that is available to me when I was away from the office. They were of course shared under \\FILESERVER\... not \\FILE-SERVER\... Before the server down, I had backup works fine on my machine.
After having got the server up and going again, I started going there from the WIndows 7 Client PC backups again. I started with a desktop computer, which of course have not all offline files. This turned out to be relatively simple.
Then, I started with my machine. Initially I did not 'Available offline' folders shared meanings. I created my backup using exactly the same settings that had worked OK on the desktop. But when I ran the backup I got:
The system cannot find the specified path, error Code 0 x 80070003
I tried all sorts of things to make it work:
- with or without an image of the system.
- reducing the backup in a single folder.
- do it again 'available offline files
Nothing makes no difference. In the end, I looked in the Sync Center to look at the offline files folder. Under mapped network drives I discovered that I still had the files and folders in \\FILESERVER. In their Menu Popup 'Always available offline' is grayed out. So I deleted the Copies offline. This delete the files in the folders but not files.
Since I could find no way to delete the old mapped network drives. I decided that I had painted myself into a corner. So I bit the bullet and re-installed my laptop too. This will get rid of the unwanted old mapped network drives - BUT NOT the ERROR!
HELP - I'm running out of ideas!
I have a WORD Document that all the settings that I used on the server and Clients, as well as the reasoning behind these settings, documents, but I can't find a way to download.
Hi Brian,.
These problems occur because the folders or libraries that you are trying to back up or restore include a reparse point.
Analytical points are similar to shortcuts Windows or Unix symbolic links. A point of analysis can be used to point to a file that is moved temporarily to a different drive. For example, a reparse point would a folder such as C:\DVD to point to drive E, the real DVD player.Perform the steps from the link below and see if the backup works.
Windows backup or restore 0 x 80070001, 0 x 81000037 or 0 x 80070003 errors
If you work with Windows Server 2008 and the mapped drives, I would recommend that you post the question in the TechNet forums.

The tools are not compatible with JDK7. You need to install JDK6 and it must be the 32-bit version.
If you have several versions of the JDK, you can modify bbwp.properties in the subfolder bin of your SDK WebWorks to include the following text:

You would update the JDK version to match your own, but note that this is the SEO Program Files (x 86); the path 32-bit installations. This way you can have several JDK if you need, but the command bbwp must reference the appropriate JDK.In short, he must be JDK6 and it must be 32-bit.

Original title: network router, XP computer and Windows 7 laptop computer dilemma.
My system XP computer is part of a network using a router. I also have a laptop Windows 7, using the same network. Reference Dell set up a password so that the network is not accessible without password, reducing the risk of piracy. Now, I can not in the XP system because of the defined password. How to reset or enter the password on the XP computer?
Hi Scottid2,
1. do you receive error messages when you access the Windows XP system?
2. What is the password being set by Dell?
You can check in the Windows 7 system if the password protected sharing is enabled. When protected by password sharing is enabled, people using other computers on your network cannot access your shared folders or printers unless they have a user account on your computer.
You can turn off password protected sharing and check if it helps.
For more information, see the articles:
Why can't I connect to other computers?
Networking of computers running different versions of Windows
As the password is set by Dell, you can also consult with support of Dell for the same thing:

"Error 1719. Able to access the Windows Installer Service"when you install programs.
After spending the last week every night trying to get some software installed (and of course the search for remedies in probably all available forums), I let go and post this request for assistance. But first my story:
I have lived the last week suddenly my Neat Receipts software does not recognize my scanner more. Trying to reinstall the software, I came across the error that Windows Installer could not be started. That's when I started first for solutions. I was surprised how many solutions I found (but more redoubled practically the same thing), but none did it for me. At this point, I was always under the assumption that it is a problem of the Neat Receipts software.
Then after another night of frustration I could not pass my trial version Office 2010 plus a sort of license error. I was a little surprised that the trial version which abruptly ended without giving me the opportunity to enter a license key (I got wrong), but doesn't bother too much because I liked the product and had noticed last week as well as Office 2010 is already officially released and I decided to buy it. After spending about $300 and a successful upload, I tried to install it.
And here my saga continues. First I got the message that I couldn't upgrade my trial version and need to uninstall. Uninstall with the uninstaller routine does not work (windows error message install), but I could uninstall it using the Windows-Install-Clean-Up utility. Now, I can start the installation process, but after being nearly halfway through the installation, I again get the error of Windows install the Windows Installer Service cannot be accessed (Error 1719). It is roughly the same error that I got at the beginning, when I tried to reinstall the software, Neat receipts. So, it seems not to be a misapplication of Neat receipts or Office 2010, but a windows problem.
The frustrating thing however is that after spending all hours searching online for solutions, the only thing I've discovered is that I am in good company (i.e. There are many others have reported the same problem), but none of the solutions work. Just to be safe, do not for get the same Advisor I tried already several times, let me enumerate what I've done so far:
1. I am logged on as administrator
2 - I started the Windows Installer service
3 - I ran SCF /sannow (no problems found)
4. I not saved and re-entered the msiecec with / opt and/regserver. I did so explicitly for BOTH (!) msiexec programs, one in the system32 folder and the one in the sysWOW64 folder
5. I tried to repair Windows 7 boot from the windows 7 installation DVD and run the option repair (no problem found)
6. I tried to pass the parameter registry WOW64 (for MSIServer) from 1 to 0 (I found this in one of the suggested solutions) [and later again back to the original value 1]
7. I tried to 'force' windows to ignore the msiexec for 64 bit (in the system32 folder) by renaming and by identifying the msiexec for 32 bit 9 in the sysWOW64 folder) and update the path regsever C:\Windows\system32\msiexec.exe \V to C:\Windows\syswow64\msiexec.exe \V
8 - I disabled my firewall and antivirus
9 - I did everything above in many variations with reset (both the save option - reboot)
-in fact, I could do things more I can't remember.
Unfortunately a recovery is not an option most, because I guess I tried too many things and my view of the possible return is a point in which my computer was already in place...
I tried to involve as well a representative of Microsoft support explaining my dilemma, but only made e-mail a generic response on this same forum (great customer service!).
While I was actually pretty happy in the last 4 months with my new Windows7 (and thus Office2010), I am now reaching the point where I fell like throwing finally the towel and kiss goodbye to Microsoft. I was seriously considering to move to Apple before decide me in February favor some cheaper hardware to continue with Microsoft and the new Windows7. But this experience not being able to fix my computer after spending nights in the search for solutions and not be able to get support from Microsoft disgusts me.
Now I wonder if there is someone out there who could help me out here...
Of course, the .msi applies only to installers .msi, which was my mistake for which I apologize. Regarding a clean installation, the fact remains that you have faced this anomaly for several days, a clean install, despite the pain, would be a distant memory now. This is my personal opinion, not Microsoft, they me disavowed a long time ago, in all cases MVPS have nothing to do with Microsoft, although the price is published by Microsoft, it is awarded for the caregiver, or in this case try to help others. It is good that I can at least allow you to vent, it's better out there that maintenus kept bottled upward, no matter how hard it seems to fix the problem, it will be resolved in your favor by subsequently, one way or the other.
In pursuing the side of permissions of things you can try that if you wish.
This example may or may not work for you, with your program?
"It seems that the"Run as Administrator"command gives you administrative privileges only, and they are not enough to install Java (and OpenOffice, by association). To work around this problem, you must actually connect to an administrator. Open a command prompt with admin rights by clicking Start, type cmd in the search/run box, hit CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER. At the prompt, type:
NET user administrator / Active: Yes
Then disconnect from your regular account and record as an administrator, you should be able to install the program. When you are finished, open a session to your regular account and, for security reasons, disabling the account administrator for assistance:
«net user administrator / active: No.»
