Original title: 2 numbers do not know if they are related
I have 2 questions and I don't know if they are related. Several days ago I was doing some cleaning and uninstalling programs to free up space. I don't know what I started with, but it seemed to go ok. However, after all that I've tried to uninstall gave me the message: Please wait until the current program has finished uninstalling or one. I rebooted the computer more than once during this period, but it still says that.
Then my internet explore has stopped working just for 2 or 3 days. I've been using google chrome to access things, but it is rather slow.I ran repeated virus and malware scans my norton security and the microsoft Web site, and all said I am clean.Yes, it's windows 7 I appreciate the suggestions, but the problem was that he wouldn't LET me not uninstall anything. He gave me the waiting message please do anything, and he's not missing if I stopped and restarted. Finally, I gave up. I saved my files to my external hardrive and just do a full recovery of the computer. He solved the problem of installed programs and the internet problem explore both, although I hoped it would avoid going that drastic.

'Please wait until that the current program is finished uninstalling or change'
Im trying to uninstall a program and when I click on uninstall it says: "Please wait unti the current program is finshed uninsatlling or that" it says always that what I'm doing.
Hello
This question has been answered here:
I think you should try:
#1 restart your system and try again.
#2 check that the software is not running in the background.
#3 try a 3rd party uninstaller but be careful because you don't have much control over how a 3rd party uninstaller effectively uninstalls - sometimes they leave "debris" that can affect future use.
Kind regards

Windows Media Player cannot burn the files. If the burner is busy, wait until the current task is complete. If necessary, check that the burner is connected properly and that you have installed the latest device driver. ???
I just burn a CD with no problem at all. Using the same type of CD, brand new, I tried to burn another CD and got this error message:
Windows Media Player cannot burn the files. If the burner is busy, wait until the current task is complete. If necessary, check that the burner is connected properly and that you have installed the latest device driver.
I close all programs running, restarted my computer, changed on the devices tab, the speed of burning... everything I know to do and all the things I've read in these forums, no luck... still get the exact same message. No idea why my CD-writer has decided to stop working for me?

Original title: CD corrupts and burn it
When I go to burn a cd with the music on this topic in windows media player, it starts very well. When it gets to 70-80% it stops and a window opens with this message.
"Windows Media Player cannot burn the files. If the burner is busy, wait until the current task is complete. If necessary, check that the burner is connected properly and that you have installed the latest device driver. »
There is nothing burn but these files. I made sure there was nothing waiting to be burned. I closed all the other windows. I lowered the speed at which it burns. Nothing works I've looked up online. WMP is updated too.
I can burn files very well. Photos and documents, I have a problem with. It cannot therefore the CD burner (not completely, anyway). I can listen to the songs on the CD where it suddenly stops.
If anyone has had this problem, a solution would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Hi Cory,.
This problem can also occur when your computer correctly detects the disc as a non-recordable device. Make sure that the registry key is set correctly for DVD player.
CD - R or CD - RW drive is not recognized as a recordable device (valid also for Windows 7 steps)

I have the same problem. I don't know what to do and I tried to check what other people wrote on online. I think, because another program tries udate and he has a problem, it's the reason why. The message I get between the two is the following:
"A program cannot display a message on your desktop.

Can anyone help?
For any manual uninstall to succeed, you will need to manually remove all items remaining program where they occur, whether in the registry or in Windows.
Maybe you could try a third-party uninstall program if Windows cannot do it for you.
Take a look at some of the free third-party uninstallers part such as 'Revo' that exists in the market.

I get this error message (see title) when I try to remove existing applications or to install new applications. I upgraded this Compaq CQ50z-100 of Vista Home Basic in a 2 step process:
Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade
Windows 7 Professional upgrade
Once I had upgraded to Home Premium, I started to get this message. Thinking that I can fix by the Win 7 Pro update, I proceeded with the upgrade (success, no problem). However, the problem persists. I tried to perform a "clean boot" and then "Normal Startup - load all the drivers of devices and services" and I still get this error.
Need advice on what to do to solve this problem... short recovery in the image of Vista Home Basic original recorded via Norton Ghost 15... :(
Thank you Andre,
Since posting this thread, I found a solution. The solution was to reset Windows Installer (1 to off, and then back to the manual) using the console of the computer/manage. I edited the setting Windows Installer via "Services and Applications view (tab 'Standard' of Services). First round of "Disabled" to "Manual", restarted and all then it 'Manual' and rebooted one last time.
In a note, my issue was with Norton Ghost 15. I had installed on the original view of Vista Home Basic, but found I could not it starts successfully after the 2-step 7 upgrade Premium. Remove failed. I've finally finished the removal after completing a full installation of Ghost 15 new (seemed to have lost some registry key values/entries).

If you guys tell me to check and make sure that the CD burner is connected; been there, done that.
If you guys tell me to uninstall the device, then reinstall; He does that
If you guys tell me to try new disks; summer it does this as well.
I lowered the burn speed ect.I did everything possible. I can burn a disc once or a little then next I get this error.
I still have to burn the disc from system restore and I fear for fear of getting this error. I think I have the external writer since bad things is a good idea to test things before putting.
