• The Windows Installer keeps popping up repeatedly tried to install Win Media Gallery

  Windows Installer continues to appear repeatedly, trying to install Win Media Gallery.  When I accept it tells me it cannot locate a msi file - defeats what it started - only for the popup to come back.  I took the drive using the disable windows in the control panel features, but that doesn't stop her.

  My OS is Windows 7HE - which is bang up to date.
  I tried virus checkers etc, but the installer appears everytime I open one of any number of programs.   The onl; are there common thing is always wanting to install windows media gallery - which I do not think that I have ever used!
  Help, please

  With regard to fixing or uninstallation of what would be your call.

  Windows live essentials 2011 includes, direct mail / live photo gallery / live movie maker and a few other features that I don't remember.

  Everything I personally is manufacturer of Gallery and photo film installed.

  If you can activate the program and then do a selective activation like me and never use it :)

  Windows Mail does not start by itself.  Go to start | Search and type in msconfig and then disable startup items selectively until you discover which program is responsible for the outbreak of Winmail.  Ask the store what they were doing.

• Videos removed from Windows Media keeps returning

  For months I have REMOVE some old videos in my Windows Media Player.  They suppress with I also say to remove it from the computer and they disappear for a week or two.  Then about 2 weeks or so later, when I go into my Player Windows media - will they once again - the exact same old videos that I deleted previously.  I did about 3 - 4 times now and with the same results.  HOW can I get this old videos out of my windows media player for GOOD?    Thank you.

  Hello

  a. you delete videos from the Player library or the hard drive itself?
  b. you are able to play these videos that appear after deleting?

  I think that you delete the files from the media player library.

  This problem can occur if the media library is corrupt. Rebuild the library and check if this solves the problem.

  Follow these steps:
  1. exit Windows Media Player.
  2. click on start, run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player, and then click OK.
  3. Select all the files in the folder and then click on Delete on the file menu.
  Note: you don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.
  4. restart Windows Media Player.

  Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.

  If this does not resolve the problem, disable the Windows Media Player database cache files. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. exit Windows Media Player.
  2. click on start, run, type % LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft, and then click OK.
  3. Select the Media Player folder, and then click on Delete on the file menu.
  4. restart Windows Media Player.

• Windows help keeps popping up when you press the happy.

  Hi, I am currently using an HP XT's spectrum that runs on Windows 8. Two days previously, when I press SHIFT C, the capital C is not at all.  Therefore, I press Caps Lock shift but this triggers a Windows Help is displayed.  This can be very irritating, especially when I'm typing a document. Anyone would be able to tell me how to activate the 'Shift C' keys, as well as to turn off the help pop-up windows when you press the CAPS LOCK key.?  Thank you very much for your help!

  Hello Lai,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

  If it works well before? If YES, you did important equipment or modifications to the software on the computer before this problem?

  The issue could rest with the material if it is a keyboard mapping problem. Then, I recommend you to connect an external keyboard with the ultrabook and check. If the external keyboard works fine, then you may need to contact the manufacturer of your system (hp) for the same problem.

  If you get the same problem with the external keyboard, the issue may rest with the keyboard or corrupt drivers.

  In this case, I suggest you to update the drivers for the chipset of your ultrabook. You can view the following link to do so:

  Spectrum of HP XT Pro Ultrabook

  Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

  This has nothing to do with any application.  Error 1706.  Help!

  Hello

  1. have you made software changes recently?

  Method 1.
  It seems that there is a background app that launches the installer of Windows. We can perform a boot minimum troubleshooting to find the same thing. You need to perform a clean boot to find the program that is causing and then disable or remove.

  Note: When you are finished troubleshooting, follow the steps as explained in the article to reset the computer to start as usual.

  Method 2.
  Also, I recommend reregister you the Installer engine.
  Here's how:
  a. Click Start, click Accessories and then click command prompt.
  b. at the command prompt, type the following and press ENTER after each line:
   
  MSIExec /Unregister
   
  MSIExec/regserver

  I hope this helps.

  I have problems wiping out anti-virus from Symantec.

• Please can someone explain why the windows Installer keeps appearing when nothing is installed? Any way to stop this?

  Why the Windows Installer keep popping up, either on a web page or an e-mail to the office when nothing is installed.  No way to stop that... ?

  The desktop of your computer, click on the tab "Start", usually located at the bottom left of the screen (on Vista, it's maybe the windows symbol instead of the word 'Start').

  Now, find and click on the program title 'run '. Vista users can locate this program by typing "run" in the area of research at the bottom of the menu 'start '.

  Once you open 'Run', type 'MSCONFIG' in the empty box and click 'OK '. This will open the System Configuration utility.

  With the open System Configuration utility, select the tab "Services".

  Scroll down the list of services (it may be advantageous to click on the 'service' column to sort the services by alphabetical order) until you find the program "Windows Installer".

  Now, click on the checkbox next to the name of the Windows Installer and click on the button 'Disable' at the bottom of the Configuration of the system.
