• How to restore Microsoft updates list to add and remove programs in the control panel?

  Under Widows XP SP3

  You have the box show updates checked (at the top of the Add/Remove window)?

  How long and how did you remove the updates from the list?  If only recently you can use system restore to roll back the machine just before you deleted the items.

  Why should you list?  Updates can be uninstalled manually with the Spuninst.exe utility, look in the update to spuninst folder, example:

  C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB973687$\Spuninst

• I can not manually remove a particular program to add tool / remove programs.

  I use XP Pro . Pack 3.

  All, but I can't manually remove a particular program from the add tool / remove programs. The program is "Ulead VideoStudio 8.0"

  The registry of the program given below entry between the quotation marks. I ran Microsoft FixIt (diagnose and correct program installation and uninstallation problems automatically) and she confirmed she fixed the error with success, but as I retried to remove said adding tool program / remove programs, it still reflects the same as we. The problem by deleting this program remained pending.

  SYMPTOM:

  I TRY TO REMOVE THE PROGRAM FROM THE ADD REMOVE PROGRAMS TOOL,-instead of OPEN the "UNINSTALL PROGRAM", SETUP PROGRAM OPENS RATHER AND ALSO request THAT THE registration KEY into the HOUSE.

  AS I ENTER THE KEY of RECORD, THE PROGRAM CONTINUE to INSTALL , BUT ends UP WITH a BOX of DIALOGUE of MESSAGE LIKE "'THE PROGRAM IS ALREADY INSTALLED IN MY COMPUTER:" "

  SO I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE LEFT BUT TO STOP THE INSTALLATION (IT IS NOT AN UNINSTALL PROGRAM) WITH THE REST OF THE PROBLEM UNRESOLVED.

  NOW WHAT CAN I DO ELSE?

  Thank you & best regards

• Add or remove programs? Uninstall it says invalid or data has been corrupted, will not continue.

  Add or remove programs. The program I want to uninstall it is Printmaster 150.00 MB. I tried to uninstall it but uninstall it says invalid or data has been corrupted,

  will not continue. How to get out he computer?

  If you have the original installation media, a method that often works when an uninstall program is corrupt is to reinstall the app and then uninstall it.

  Otherwise, you could try free Revo Uninstaller or see http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/comphelp/msg081415488395.html (unfortunately, the link to the manual uninstall instructions doesn't work; support for Broderbund software has been adopted by Encore.com, the search engine it leaves something to be desired; however, you can ask for help in a forum yet http://forums.encoreusa.com/).

  How to contact Technical Support (it is not clear if all Printmaster versions are still supported; I would try telephone assistance rather than on the web):
  http://forums.encoreusa.com/TM.asp?m=24071&mpage=1&key=%E5%B8%87

  The following (below the line *) comes from a post on the support forums forum moderator yet.  I have not linked to it because earlier in the post, it is suggested to use a registry cleaner in the manual uninstall.  Certainly, I do NOT recommend to use any registry cleaner.

  *************************************************************************************************************
  NOTE: this message does not apply to PrintMaster 2.0 or Print Shop 2.0.

  Broderbund programs, including (but not limited to) print shop, PrintMaster, designer of Scrapbook memories of creation and creator of calendar, are installed in the Program Files folder where most of the software are installed. However, many Broderbund programs will install also files and folders in other places on the hard drive.

  When one of these programs of Broderbund is uninstalled because it is suspected that the installation is corrupt, it's always a good idea to make sure to manually delete all the files and folders stored on the hard drive that are not deleted automatically during an uninstall normal - to ensure that all corruption is removed before the program, is reinstalled.

  Here are the paths of the additional folders where Broderbund software is commonly installed:

  Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

  and

  C:\Documents and Settings\ [your user name] \Local Settings\Application Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

  WinVista/Win 7: C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund logiciels\Print

  and

  C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund logiciels\Print.

  and

  C:\ProgramData\Broderbund logiciels\Print

  PrintMaster address books can be accessed from and saved to the BOOKS folder that is a subfolder of the folder prints shown below (PrintMaster address books may be accessed from or saved to the Documents folder)

  Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

  WinVista/Win 7:Print and C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund logiciels\Print logiciels\ C:\ProgramData\Broderbund

  (As you can see, when PrintMaster address books are registered under WinVista and Windows 7, they are saved in two files).

  For example, the address for PrintMaster 18 books would be saved in these folders on WinVista or Windows7 computer

  C:\ProgramData\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\Books

  C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\Books

  To make sure that saved the address books are not deleted during the uninstall process, they must be saved prior to PrintMaster is uninstalled. When these address books are restored, it will be necessary to restore these in the same two folders address books - because an address book will not appear in the file. Open list, if not in the two files.

  Address books print shop can easily be stored in the Documents folder. So, if you have registered your address books in the Documents folder, it is not necessary to save the address book before you uninstall the print shop.

  **********

  Files that control the Project Gallery and the Art Gallery are stored in the folders of ART PROJECTS & which are subfolders of this folder to print

  Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\ [your username] \Local Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

  WinVista/Win 7: C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund logiciels\Print.

  For example, ART & for PrintMaster 18 PROJECT files would be in this folder on WinVista or Windows7 computer

  C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\PROJECTS

  Because these files can easily become corrupt if the video card driver is out of date or corrupted, the program folder that has been uninstalled (in this case, the folder 18.0) must be removed before the program is re-installed. It is completely safe to delete the folder PrintMaster - because a new facility this 18.0 folder will be performed when PrintMaster is uninstalled.

  If there is only one version of PrintMaster installed on the computer, the PrintMaster folder in this example could also be deleted safely.

  It is not absolutely necessary to remove the Adbook.exe file that controls the program PrintMaster addressbook. But it's always a good idea to know that this file is installed in this folder

• In "Add or remove programs' done 'change '?

  I am trying to run Combofix and it want me to have the updated Recovery Console which I think has something to do with "Service Pack 2, 3.0" I tried the update section, but it says that everything is up to date.  So I chose change in Add or remove programs and something happened, but I do not know what? Laughing out loud.

  Hello

  Change = repair, most of the time. Although sometimes it is just another menu to uninstall, etc.. It is usually labeled in three ways - modification, repair, change / repair.

• Can't pin the program to the taskbar.

  Ive been try instructions on how programs PIN over the taskbar, but I can't.  I clicked on the start menu and right click on the program I have to pin, but no 'Code Pin to the taskbar' option. I also tried to drag the program on the taskbar, but it did not work. What will I do?

  Sorry, but that's the wrong answer. Absolutely NO program (executable file) would PIN to the taskbar. I found out why and would like to present this as the correct answer to anyone having this problem. This is because I removed the arrows on the icons on the desktop, thanks to a program called "Wise Fixer." If you choose to provide these arrows on the icons you can then pin any program to the taskbar again. Go figure.

Every time I tried, would open a window saying "Choose the program you want to use to open this file." If I try to download a new virus scanner, it says the same thing.

I checked this file on my c: drive\system 32 and see the rundll.exe file. I also copy and pasted the file rundll.exe my CD of Windows XP in c: Windows\System32
