Windows Installer appears every time that a new tab is open

Original title - Microsft Office 2010

After you have installed Office 2010 (I already had Office 2007), Windows Installer keeps popping up on my screen. When I cancel, another window opens saying "the component you are trying to use is on a CD-Rom or another removable disk that is not available. When I cancel I get error 1706 Set can not find the file require. You check the connection to the network or CD-Rom. When I cancel it, it starts with Windows Installer popping up. Finally, he leaves popping up but when I open a new window again. Windows 2010 works just fine. Windows Installer is the problem.

Hi JoettaReed

You can check if the re-registration of Windows Installer helps you-
a. Quit all Windows programs.
b. click Start, click run, type msiexec /Unregister in the Open box and then click OK.
c. click Start, click run, type msiexec/regserver in the Open box and then click OK.
d. restart your computer.

I hope this helps.

    For all of you who read this, I was able to solve the problem.

    Through all the blogs I read, I did sort of a stupid Setup 4.5.2 on server 2012R2 error.  DON'T, DON'T.

    To uninstall the 4.5.2 version of server 2012R2 if you install like I did, go to programs and features, switch view installed updates and remove the update for Windows KB2934520

    After doing this, I was able to smooth sailing through the installation.  I realized that halfway through my troubleshooting, but considering the compatibility of .net usually I don't think it would be a huge problem and I though that surely there would be a vmware KB on such a stupid mistake but apparently not.

  • I want that my new tabs to open to my home instead of blank page. I can't have this?

  • I get a pop-up window at startup every time that says: "cannot open osoyugup.dll, Access is denied." I close the box and everything seems to work normally.

    Why do I get this popup each time, and how to fix it?  I did a system repair and re-installed xp pro, but the pop up still appears whenever I turn on the PC.

    See if the following sounds like your situation:
    It is sometimes easy to get rid of the error message by doing something like disable the startup item in msconfig (if you can still find), but I suggest you fix the problem and difficulty not only the symptom of the problem by simply deleting the startup message.
    I would also not recommend you start digging in the registry to try to find the startup item and remove it unless you have a backup of your system or at least a backup of your registry, because there is no 'Cancel' or 'quit without saving changes' option in regedit.  If you make a mistake, that's all.
    These ideas relieve 'rapid' and sometimes risky of the symptom if they not even work at all, but they can't actually solve the problem.  Also, I'd be suspicious of ideas that begin with the words "try."  You don't need to try things, you need to fix things.  You don't need to try ideas that might work, you must do something that will always work all the time.
    Here are the detailed instructions that protect you and solve your problem in the 'right' way.
    There is very little. DLL files that should be loaded from the C:\WINDOWS folder and is not one of them.
    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira
    !, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..
    A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading... ". "or"specific module could not be found"message at startup is usually related to the malware that has been configured to run at startup, but the referenced file has been removed after a malware scan, leaving behind him a startup item or the registry entry pointing to a file that does not exist.
    It might be a removal of malicious software or an application not installed.  The entry may have a curious looking name since it was probably generated at random when the malware was installed. If you search your system for the referenced file, you may not find.
    Windows attempts to load this file but cannot locate because the file has been deleted for most probably during an analysis of the malware. However, an orphaned associate of remainders of startup parameter or registry entry and tells Windows to load the file when you start or connection.
    So you should delete the referenced entry Windows stop trying to load or run the file. It may or may not be included in the registry, but you can still find it.  Autoruns (see below) you get the elements no matter where it is.
    If you just locate and uncheck the item in msconfig, which disables the element but does not remove the reference to the element of false starting your computer.   The msconfig program is not a Startup Manager, that's a troubleshooting tool.  Disabling things in msconfig to put an end to the messages and think that your problem is solved is short-sighted and leave behind him a sloppy XP configuration.  Just disable the display of a start-up error message should not count as a 'solution' to the problem.
    If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can find and remove the reference directly from there or remove it using a popular third-party tool called Autoruns.  The problem can always be found in the registry well.
    Before making any changes to your registry by hand or with third-party tools, don't forget to first make a backup of the registry. There is no cancellation or exit without saving the option in regedit.
    Here is a link to a popular registry backup tool:
    You can use Autoruns to find the element of start remains little matter where he's hiding.  Autoruns does not install anything on your computer.  It will display all startup locations where the reference may be then you can turn it off or remove it completely.  Here is the download link for Autoruns:
    Run Autoruns.exe and wait that he at the end of the filling of the list of entries.
    When the Autoruns is finished scanning your system, it will say "Ready" in the lower left corner.  Autoruns can be a little intimidating to first if you have never seen it before because it displays a lot of information.  You are really interested only a few sections.
    The problem is usually to start the system or the user startup entries, then click the connection tab and see if the startup item is there.
    Scroll through the list and look for a boot entry associated files in the error message.
    If you can't find on the connection tab, look in any tab.
    You can also click file, search to search for logon, or any tab for all or part of the name of the element.
    Right-click on the offending entry and choose Remove
    .  If you are not sure what it is, you can simply disable, restart and if the problem is resolved and then remove the offending entry.  If you don't see it in Autoruns, you may edit the registry and remove the item from your startup folder it.  Autoruns shall display the same information however.
    Given that systems currently has or has had an infection, follow up with this:
    Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
    Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

  • Adobe Bridge CS3 crashes every time that it is trying to open.

    I use a MacBook Pro with 10.9.4.  Today when I tried to open Bridge CS3, it crashed. No error. Just hang. On several occasions.  I removed all Adobe and reinstalled, but the bridge continues to crash. I used the menu "Shift/option" reset the prefs, etc., and it still crashes. I downloaded a patch supposed to bridge & installed even if my APP store didn't want me and bridge continues to crash.

    I am a photographer and dependent bridge as my photo browser.

    Other ideas for me to try?

    Well, I don't know what just happen to gremlins, but get this:

    On a whim, I have kept only the key shift key while trying once more open the bridge. And he OPENED without crashing.

    I was afraid to leave the key... but I did, and the bridge has not crashed. I have traveled some photo files, closed the Bridge reopened... WITHOUT the SHIFT key & its opening. I have now tried several times and it does not crash. And while I'm happy that it works, I wouldn't hold my breath that it will continue to work.  WEIRD.

    I'm going to re - start the macbook pro and see what happens.

    You said about this 2 weeks ago?

    Yet once, I fell in this place and the time and effort wasted because MS Answers forums invite to no system information when a new question is asked - but I digress.

    Update of security 908513 is included in Service Pack 3 update.

    Since forums MS Answers asks you any information from system when a new question is asked, we don't even know what Service Pack you have.  If you have SP3, you already have the update.  Two weeks and we don't know what is your Service Pack, what is your antivirus/antimalware environment...  We know that you have XP Pro 32-bit however.

    What you're likely to have is an extension of the Explorer Shell with a malfunction, and you can usually understand as follows:

    When the Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer) is wrong (especially when right click), begin to suspect third-party add-ons explore extension.

    Those who would be the Explorer extensions that do not belong to Microsoft.  This means that extensions that you have added.  Solution Explorer extensions are generally well and installation of certain applications will install extensions from Explorer solutions for you, give you a choice and sometimes they can be added without your knowledge when you install the new software.

    Solution Explorer extensions are sometimes added as a new right-click option, you see on folders and files (like the scan of this file, open that file, play this song).

    If there is something in particular that you do during exploration that you know will be the cause of the problem, which will help focus on the problem and the help that you suddenly know, when you have found and corrected.  If you can get there when you want it, make an adjustment and then there is no message the next time you don't do anything, you do, you have found and corrected.

    If you can really achieve almost everytime you do a right-click and choose something like delete or copy, you're well on your way to understand.

    First of all you need a way to see what modules explore you have installed now and a way to turn them off (not uninstall them) so you can understand that we are at the origin of the problem.  You can have a lot of extensions not installed Microsoft don't even know you about.

    Download ShellExView here to see what Explorer extensions you have loaded:

    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/shexview.html

    ShellExView does not install anything on your computer, simply of runs and displays.

    After launching ShellExView, under Options, choose "Mark non-Microsoft Extensions" and extensions not Microsoft will be pink, clear, but on some systems which is a difficult color to see, so click on display, choose the columns and move the column Microsoft closer to the top, so you can see on your screen without having to scroll left and right.

    Click on the column header for Microsoft sort display (by clicking on the column of Microsoft) then all the non Microsoft extensions are on top and easy to see.

    Non-Microsoft extensions would be things you have added (non-Microsoft) and are what you should be suspect.

    You can also Google the name of a suspect add-on and see if there is any success about the errors with the extension and to what other people have done on it... Maybe just to get an update of the program that adds the suspicious extension.

    You can Google something like:

    Explorer XP crashing

    (you must complete your suspect on behalf of add on)

    See what kind of search results hits you get and are looking for solutions or situations that sound like yours.

    I'm not a defender of trial and error, but I can't think of another way to do...

    Right click and disable the extensions one at a time non-Microsoft keep a list so you can enable them again later if you wish. The result of the change is immediate and no reboot is necessary.  Test your failure condition.

    If you recognize all the extensions that have been added or recently downloaded, start with these first.

    Disabling the extension does not uninstall the extension - it is just disabled.

    Disable them one at a time until your right click on do not generate an error, then restart and test again.  You have disabled the last extension would be suspicious.

    You can also just disable all non-Microsoft extensions, restart and allow them one at a time until you find the one that generates the condition.

    The hope is that you will find an extension that caused the error, and then you can figure out what on this subject - either uninstall it or see if you can get an update of the author of the extension of their web page.

    I have not your problem, but I can when you toggle extensions, the extension is immediately turned off, to disable an extension does not require a restart, but if you find the problem, I reboot and retest in all cases to be sure that the problem has disappeared.

    If you post your non-Microsoft extensions list, maybe someone will recognize it as a potential problem.

    If you find the offending extension that's the problem, please let us know what it is that I can add to my list.

    Problem is that I have the program launch Cache in a full window every time that the computer starts. Stupid! It should start only in the system tray. Imagine every other startup program starts in a full window from the start. Is not acceptable. Also, I had disable the security function in the control panel of Windows 7, which allows the programs to make changes to the computer or leave it in a message box whenever he throws. Fuck that person nothing told me on this software is so much in need. In a chat online SanDisk said it's just the way it was designed.

    You can choose to not launch the application at windows startup ("do not start with windows" option). The caching engine still works without the GUI app.

I read similar questions, but they don't tell you how to run a disk check, they mention however that "If you want to cancel the regular disk for some reason check, check out this guide." but tell you what guide or link?

    Hello

    This tells you how to enable and disable it:

    Please explain what you mean... "incentive"?

    The keyboard screen is not supposed to be enabled when the computer is turned on.

    Here's how to turn off on-screen keyboard:

  • Blue screen 116 every time that Windows updates

    original title: 116 every time that Windows Update BSOD

    OK, so I'm in a bad mood, so this will be brief. I managed to understand I get BSOD every time I update my graphics driver, and I have no idea what kind of card I because it is a company built PC (never buy Dells) and the owner of this PC (that is to say my father and family) reinstalled Windows compeletly before I could look, so all I have is "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" in the Device Manager. Try to manually update the drivers causing the BSOD once I chose to run windows normally (it runs in safe mode now too, which is of course the pre reinstall improved)

    So I don't really know what to do at this point.

    Hello

    Dell can tell you what the graphics device in the computer is so check with their support, their online
    documentation and drivers and ask in the Dell forums for known issues. Check the model number
    of your computer on the Dell Site for drivers - it should indicate the appropriate driver.

    The fact that it BlueScreens when you try to update the driver could indicate there is something wrong
    with the video device. Because it has a "Standard VGA adapter' this means that the driver does not load.

    I hope this helps.
