• When you try to uninstall several programs via the Control Panel, I get a message that "another installation is in progress and must be completed first". I have no other current facilities. Windows XP Home Edition

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Hello dutchb,

  The error, "another installation is in progress and must be completed first" can be attributed to the InProgress key found in the registry at:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress

  Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.

  I suggest that first make a backup of the registry or a system restore point. Then go to control panel, administrative tools, Services. Do scroll down and find the Windows Installer service, and set the start at the stop State. Delete the registry key to the location above.

  Now, you shouldn't get the installation in the progress message when you try to uninstall programs.

  I hope this helps.

  Sincerely,

  NOTE: apart from this, you can find a few other tasks of chrome running in background.

I even tried to download and reinstall the installer, but I get an error code indicating that it does not apply to my computer. I would appreciate a response.

  Hello emc8

  Try to use the Microsoft FixIt tool to uninstall applications. Microsoft FixIt can help when programs do not want to install or uninstall.
  1. download from the link below and run it. (Note for each program, you will need to rerun the Microsoft FixIt tool)
  2. asked about if you want to choose options or run automatically, choose "automatically".
  3. the next thing he'll ask is if the problem you are having with the install or uninstall. Select uninstall.
  4 Microsoft FixIt will then list all the programs currently installed, and you can select the one you want to uninstall. Start with what ever you prefer.
  5. it should then proceed to uninstall the program. If you get the same message of error or an other error message / let me know.
