Whenever I open an Excel file, I get a pop for Windows Installer
Original title: Windows Installer
Every time I open an existing Excel file, Windows Installer opens first, there is a significant delay and opens the Excel file. What is the solution to get out of the process of opening Excel from Windows Installer files? I don't see Windows Setup in the control panel so I can't remove it.
Thank you
Hi Phil,
Windows Installer tries to configure excel on your system.
Click Start-> settings-> Control Panel-> Add/Remove Programs-> Microsoft office-> change-> add/remove component-> select excel, then click on run from my computer.
Once its finished installation-> start excel from start-> programs-> excel (or in Microsoft office-> Excel).
Let the full installation. Close excel and open your files.
I hope this helps.

How to have the sidebar with thumbnails by default in the application preview?
I'm on OSX El Capitan 10.11.3 on iMac, and whenever I open a PDF file, there is no sidebar. I have to every time click on the Sidebar icon, then select the thumbnails. I would like to be on by default, but cannot find the option or how to edit the plist file...
If the thumbnails is checked in the menu 'View' preview, it should always open a PDF file with the open sidebar. Unless of course, it's a single page PDF.

When I open a PDF file, I get the following message "invalid plugin detected Adobe Acrobat reader DC will leave" I reinstalled Adobe DC but still the same problem, it happens with all PDFs. Any advice much appreciated.
Hi Stephen39,
Do you have any 3rd party plugin installed for Adobe Reader? If not, close all instances of Adobe Reader running and delete the entire folder to: C:\program Adobe [version] \Reader\plug_ins.
Now go to control panel > programs and features. Locate the entry for Adobe Reader X and choose to repair the installation.
If you do not have a 3rd party plugin installed, try to uninstall them and see if the problem is related to the same. If it works, let me know what plugins have been the origin of the problem so that I can have a look.
If all goes well, this should fix things.
Thank you

I get a pop up window saying windows is looking for a sonic Update Manager file
original title: unsubscribe
I get a pop-up window saying windows is looking for a sonic Update Manager file (said scan.msi) and can't find it - he is constantly back and forth w/Setup attempt and then returns to "Please install the scan disk file" which I DID not! How can I get rid of this, and which upped in the 1st place? Did not request a scan? I am using iolo System Mechanic installed by Dell and do not know if something in this program attempts to run a scan, but it's very embarrassing to have these pop up screens constantly fight w/each other - I tried to cancel out of them, and they just continue to flow upward again and again.

Where can I get a codec for Windows Vista that can play mp4 files?
Using Windows Vista, I can't play a file video mp4 using Nero Showtime and some other video editing software. These programs show mp4 files using another computer with Windows 7. Where can I get a codec for Windows Vista that can play mp4 files? I don't want to install a codec pack that might ruin other programs and cause more problems than it solves. I need a codec mp4 approved by Microsoft that allows all my programs work on the Vista operating system

Please refer to the suggestion provided by "Ronnie Vernon" on the following thread:
In case of failure the backup to the top folder may be corrupted, do third party software to retrieve.
Note:
Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.
