Why can't I remove installation file?

It's weird and miss me probably just something obvious, but I downloaded "flashplayer20_ha_install" and completed the installation. Now I want to delete the file because it is no longer necessary. It seems impossible.

I get an error message "File cannot be deleted because it is open in Adobe Download Manager". Fine. When I'm looking exactly where to find Adobe Download Manager, I like that it is no longer used for the installation of flash player. So, how can I get rid of the file?

It's weird.  Under Windows, the Setup online file automatically deletes automatic when the installation is complete, without worrying whether it succeeded or not. In your case, it seems that something (e.g. some process) continues to use the finished installation program.  When you try to delete the file and get the error that it is in use, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Task Manager

    • You can right-click on the icon of the window at the bottom left to view a menu or type "Task Manager" in the search field
  2. Right click on the Task Manager and select "Run as Administrator"
  3. In the Find tab process "Adobe Download Manager.  If it is there, right click and select 'end of task.
  4. Go to the 'Users' tab and search for "Adobe Download Manager" process.  If it is there, right click and select 'end of task.
  5. Go to the 'Détails' tab and search for "flashplayer20_ha_install.exe. If it is there, right click and select 'end of task.

Please post back or not one of the above option worked.  If it doesn't work (the process was not in one of these tabs) I'll need to climb the team that manages the line/Adobe Download Manager installer.

  • Is it safe to move or remove installation files?

    I'd appreciate any help someone can give me as to if I can either delete or move the large number of .cab files who has downloaded the DirectX installer in my personal download folder. When I downloaded the software from the Microsoft Web site he asked me to choose a destination point for downloading, without suggesting a place (as is normal). Do not have much knowledge I've selected my personal download folder.

    I understand that a cab file is a single file that is created to contain a number of compressed files, and that during the installation of a program, compressed in a cabinet files are decompressed and copied to a directory that is appropriate for the user. I also read differ as to whether it is safe to delete the installation files once the software installation is complete. If I can't delete them I would at least remove to another location on the hard drive to my pc as I don't want them cluttering up my personal file downloads.

    I uninstalled the application (Media Player Classic), which was the reason why I downloaded DirectX in the first place. Is it safe now to remove the installation files, or is there a risk that I might cause damage to my system?

    I have enough space on my hard drive to accommodate the installation on my pc files, but I'm not sure the appropriate place to store. Is it safe to move them to another destination on my hard drive and how do I do this?

  • Why can I not make .zip files?

    After you remove WinRar, why can't the zip files?

    I installed WinRar, the other to open .rar files but I uninstalled the program today. I tried to do a zip folder to put songs in there and this is what happened:
    The record was made
    I opened it and stuck the music folder, that I wanted her, but after about 2 seconds, a window pops up saying "compressed (zipped) folder is invalid or corrupted," and I can only press 'ok' and the zipped folder I did just deletes.

    Here is a screenshot:

  • Why can't I delete a file corrupted in my program files?

    I could not update my iTunes application in Vista 32 bit.  I tried the uninstall/reinstall, now it won't install because I have a file corrupted in my program files.  When I try to delete the file, I said that I don't have permission to delete, but I am the administrator of my machine.  WTF?  C:\Program Files\Fichiers Apple Mobile Device Support\SyncServices\Schemas\Notes.syncschema\Contents\Resources\Spanish.lproj\Localizable.strings
    "Make sure you have access to this directory?  someone please help
    -I now have ownership of the files, according to the guests. However, I now get error 0 x 80070091: the directory is not empty and forced either retry or cancel.  Thanks for the links.  Unfortunately, I still can't convince my machine to remove old files 8-(.)

    I FOUND the solution, thanks to Suzukibiker, Chaddington Boomhauer on SecondLife and Pyrografix on Microsoft TechNet.  Long story short, I activated the REAL administrator of my machine through http://www.autoshutdown.org/how-to-enable-administrator-in-vista.html and was able to take in hand the folder and files.  I then renamed the something VERY vulgar folder, only the iTunes Installer ignored later, allowing me to finally completely reinstall iTunes.

    Thank you once again for the excellent advice.

  • Why can't I delete a file?

    By selecting the item and clicking on delete normally, you should be able to remove... Otherwise, there could be two reasons that you can remove a file or folder...

    one is running to and used as a process or service

    You can use the unlock to kill such a thing

    you have no other authorization or without authorization...

  • Why can't I save a file?

    Why can't I save a .ltx file?  I have admin permission appropriate (according to win7 anyway) but when I try to save him, the notebook said "unable to save.  Access denied. "  I just need to change a word in the file then I need to save it, but I can't save it.  I tried several different programs and all have the same result.

    Do you have the write permission on the folder where you want to save the file?  You can save other files there?

    Is the file you are trying to save the game read-only?  He initially recorded by another user account?

  • Why can't I choose the file type?

    When there is a listed image and there is more than one option for the file type, why am I not able to choose the format I want?  I recently spent the Dollar Photo Club and I'm irritated, with the move, I think that I have all the Adobe products to access the files.

    Twice he came now I chose an image and sent a .ai file.  I can't open the .ai files because I do not use a program Adobe!  I understand that these wheels are specifically designed for Adobe and I would not have chosen this type of file for this reason.  My problem is that BOTH times the available file type was also listed as a .eps file!  I am able to use this file type.

    However, it only gives me the possibility to download this form, even if he says that it is available.  How can I use the image if I can't open it?  Why .eps as a format from the list and then only let me download in a format that I can not use?

    This is the ID for the two files I've lost credits on.  It clearly states that these two are available as a .eps, yet I can't access it.

    #93099396
    #28242166

    Megan, the dedicated team working on this and it seems to work that way for a long time only; every time, it downloads a file .ai only.

    From of now the workaround that you can try is to open the file IN Illustrator and save it as .eps.

    Hope that helps!

    I got a PC with Lightroom, I used to change a lot of pictures.  I have a Mac Book Pro, Rameau and installed the Mac with Lightroom version on it.  I imported the files that have been made using the PC version, but I can't delete them.  How can I solve this?

    Marvin

    According to exactly how you imported the files it is possible that you copied with the files defined in read-only.

    Search for one of the problem of the files in the Finder, right (or control), click on the file and select information.  Check the area of sharing & permissions.

    Deleting files is a two step process (think Mac OS trash or the Recycle Bin on Windows). Deleting files in the creative brief Cloud Files on your computer moves to the Archive. From the Archive, you can restore or permanently delete the items.
