uplayermediaplayer - setup.exe keeps prompting me to download and install. It's a virus according to Google. How to remove these guests?
My question says it all. In addition, this has started happening yesterday. Initially, I have is to download the file. However, before I installed it, I checked with Google on this subject. When I discovered the file is a malicious virus or malware. So I never installed it. I ran PC Tuneup Maestro several times now and fixed the problems. However, this incentive to uplayermediaplayer - setup.exe is constantly on my computer screen. I do not install it. I want to rid my computer of this incentive of this file. I have Norton 360 Internet Security. I checked my registration to the N360 also. Via the Internet Options of Internet Explorer 8, I believe that I have cleared my cache on the computer (I'm not sure if this is the correct procedure to clear the cache of the computer?). It is a very annoying problem. I lost a lot of time trying to rid my computer of this alleged incitement to download and install this file. Earlier this morning, I tried to call N360 support, but the representative does not direct answers, give me lost a lot of time and really don't give me the sense of knowledge of this file or how to remove inviting them to download and install it.

Running Windows XP, I often setup.exe keeping the CPU at 100% for at least a few minutes... this process can be completed or ignored?
"Setup.exe" is a generic term used by many applications. The short answer is 'yes', it's OK to complete the process, but you really need to know what it is and why it continues to run.
You probably need to download, install, update and run these free malware scanner (not at the same time):
MalwareBytes AntiMalware
SUPERAntiSpywareIf that is not fix things, and assuming that this process begins when you start the computer, download, install, and run Autoruns. When Autoruns has finished scanning, click the 'Connection' tab and look for the line that contains "setup.exe". You can just uncheck the box on the left, or remove the item, which will prevent the routine of starting when Windows starts.
Preferably, however, you should look at the path containing setup.exe where you should be able to deduce what application is trying to set itself up. You can then take the appropriate measures, which may be simply delete the folder that contains the file. Note that if you delete the file, you must ALSO remove the line in Autoruns, otherwise you will get a "file not found" error every time Windows starts.

So I tried to get this to work at least for a day now, but whenever I try to launch my new game I'm away I kept getting this error: "your DirectX Runtime is up-to-date. Download and install this file from Microsoft. ' When I was re-directed I downloaded, it opens and clicks on agreed and all this things, but after 10 seconds initialization, it gave me this error: "Setup could not download the file. Please try again later or check the connection to the network. " I checked all that nothing seemed to be wrong, I did it again and again and again. So I just went to a solution or any news for DirectX. So far, no luck.
I am running on DirectX 11 right now, is if there is a new DirectX or am I a jerk, and that is a different problem? I can't understand it.

Hello
CS6 just downloaded and installed. When I downloaded the product there are two files: Photoshop_13_LS16.7z and Photoshop_13_LS16.exe.
What is the purpose of the Photoshop_13_LS16.7z file? It is used during the execution of Photoshop_13_LS16.exe?
Thank you
Stu
The 7z contains archived files needed for the installation of ps. Once installation is complete you no longer need to keep Photoshop_13_LS16.7z and Photoshop_13_LS16.exe (if it's generally a good idea to keep for future installations installation files).

I use FF25 on Windows 7. When I go to Pandora and Grooveshark I get error messages telling me that I need to install a newer version of Flash (v. 10 or later). I downloaded and installed (I think) Flash repeatedly, but I still get this error message. (Btw, I got the same message with IE, but I installed Flash for that and all right.) I read somewhere that I need to download the latest version of Real Player so that Flash to work. I did, but get the same error messages. I'm not tech savvy and don't know what to do now.
You don't seem to have the correct Adobe Flashplayer installed for Firefox. It is not in the list of Plugins with your question (Shockwave Flash followed by the version #). It can also be disabled in Add-ons > Plugins.
- Adobe Flash Player is available in several versions. One is the only IE (ActiveX) and one for most other browsers (Plugin).
- In addition, there are 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Firefox is a 32-bit browser and requires 32-bit Plugin version.
- You can have both 32-bit versions and 64-bit installed and different browsers will use the correct version (-bit and ActiveX or Plugin).
For the use of the correct version of the relevant browser (e.g., Firefox) and go to the next page for the version appropriate; in this case, use Firefox to see the link below, you are using Firefox you must SAVE the download on your hard disk, close all browsers, then run the installation program you just downloaded. Update Flash Player, always up-to-date for IE and Firefox.

Whenever I try to download and install the latest versions to iCloud and iTunes I get error messages. Just like the download ends, I get an error message and the Apple installer stops the download. Then it shows that the new versions are available for download just aif I had never tried to do it in the first place.
Try these direct links:
- 12.3.2.35 iTunes for Windows (32 bit) (Windows 7 or later) - iTunesSetup.exe (2015-12-10)
- 12.3.2.35 iTunes for Windows (64-bit) (Windows 7 or later) - iTunes6464Setup.exe (2015-12-10)
- 12.3.2.35 iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for older video cards) (Windows 7 or later) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2015-12-10)
- iCloud 5.1.0.34 for Windows (Windows 7 or later) - iCloudSetup.exe (2015-12-07)

HP Support Assistant tells Me to download and install the same update
I have a HP Envy 700-027c. Maintaining HP Support Assistant telling me to download and install a Cyberlink PowerDVD to sp63146.exe, even if I downloaded it, installed and rebooted my computer 3 times or more.

Welcome to the HP Forum!
You could try the following:
Control Panel > display icon > programs and features >
Scroll down, find and uninstall HP Support hasWizard.
Restart your computer after uninstalling the existing version of the Support Assistant.
Download and install the latest version of the HPSA:
Restart / reboot the computer and log in
=====================================================================================
If the problem persists, you can try:
- Open HPSA > click "updates and optimizations" (wording may slightly differ) >
- Select them Updates settings and messages >
Under ' how would you like to receive updated software and messages from HP?
- Select in the menu dropdown:
Search for updates, but let me choose whether to download and install them
Always in the updates and optimizations >
- Check / initiate a list of available updates >
- If the offending hotfix package is still listed, then click on it (maybe right-click?) and a value of 'Ignore' or 'hide' this package
> Once 'Hidden', the package should not display longer towards the top of the list of available updates.
Comment
In particular, it is the opinion of this Expert that you ban HPSA to download and install a BIOS update on your computer. You should always, in the opinion of this Expert, look for the updates to the BIOS on the website of your computer and only download and install a BIOS update when the update is directly applicable to your situation or if you are having problems with your computer.

LF161UA #ABA: HP download and install the wizard never ends
Laptop HP Pavilion G7
Running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 all updates applied.
Today, I got a notice from HP Support Assistant, that there was an update of firmware for my all-in-one HP Deskjet 3520 printer. I went to download and install the firmware that first downloaded and installed the HP download and install the wizard. Does OK no problem yet.
The HP download and install the wizard then downloaded the firmware update and installed on my printer. The installed firmware version has been STP1FN1351AR. I know it's done installation for my printer has printed a page of the printer hardware information and now returned to sleep. However the HP download and install Assisitant still works. He says that's it 100% but he also says to install next to the progress bar. There is another open window called "HP Device Update" which has a progress bar that keeps to be full and then starts all over again, he seems to be in an endless loop.
I'll close these two windows but he thinks someone from HP should know what is happening with their program to download and install the wizard.
I am including a screenshot of the two windows so you can see what I see.
