Action Valid Products Currently Installed
Apr 5, 2009
I have vista business running on an asus laptop. I’ve been trying to connect my HTC Touch mobile phone with the laptop and have been having problem with Windows mobile centre (error msg “ This action is only valid for products that are currently installed). I attempted to run the Windows mobile handbook & keep getting the error "The getting started disc requires Adobe Flash player version 8.0 or later…". I have installed the latest version of flash (v10), have uninstalled it (via adobe’s recommended process), reinstalled, executed FlashUtil10b as administrator, checkd activex & plugin settings (as per adobe site settings), but to no avail. I have also tried to install the active synch (predecessor to Windows mobile) and again, the error msg regarding flash player 8.0 or later required.

At some point I have pressed the 'receive updates for other products' on the Windows Update panel. I now have half a dozen updates for Office 2007 waiting for installation. I do not have Office 2007 - I do have Office 2000 and Works, so I don't see any point in downloading and installing these updates.I have tried hiding the updates, but because they are 'important' they reappear. Is there any way of deselecting the'other products' option so I go back to only checking for Windows updates?

When I ordered my new case a couple of weeks ago, I also ordered an Accelero S1 Rev2 Twin Turbo to put on my 4850. Today I decided to actually get around to installing it. When I opened the packaging and closely inspected the cooler, I discovered that the copper was dull and dirty, some of the fins were slightly scratched and dented and that there were scratch marks around the screw position adjustment area. I can only believe that I have received someone else's refurbished RMA job, since the packaging itself was brand new and that the factory applied TIM looks factory fresh and unused. It's not a show stopper, but I am a little pi*sed that it's not 'brand new'. I'm just curious if anyone else has received possible RMA products that they in good faith thought they were new and unused when purchased?

I have cable internet, that runs to a Linksys BFESR41 router, one hardwire goes out to the PC. One hardwire goes out to the internet connection for a Linksys WRT54G, which then provides the internet access for both laptops. Linksys tech support helped me get internet to all three computers. They had me do a MAC clone on the wired router and PC to get internet working on the PC. Then they had me hook the wireless router to the wired router via the wireless router internet "in" connection. I want to network all three computers so that I can access files on each computer, as well as share a printer that is connected to the PC. As of now I have internet on all three computers, but they do not "find/see" each other.

I was editing some files in Linux and am now trying to view them in Windows Vista but am having some difficulty. In particular, there's one file named demo?.jpg. When I try to open the file, I can't. When I try to rename it, I get the following error: The file name you specified is not valid or too long. Specify a different name. Certainly going into Linux and renaming it is not a problem, but I'm curious - is there a way to deal with issues such as this in Windows?

We have a new computer that came with Vista 64bit. We have Word 03 docs that we can't open and receive this error message: .doc is not a valid win32 application. What can we do to fix this so we can access our old documents? We have some of the same problems when trying to access files from the net that may be in Word format.

For some reason, my laptop has installed 6 different versions of vista on it. On my C: drive they're called windows.old.5 or windows.old.4 etc. They are taking up half the space on my hard drive! Any time I try to delete them it tells me that i need permission to perform this action, but I am the only person who uses the laptop as it is mine. What can I do? I have looked at other threatds with this problem, I have made myself administrator, tried taking ownership over the files, and they still won't delete.

This is not the same problem that was discussed in 2007--does not have to do with mail. I get the error "Could not locate a valid definitions file. Please go to the program options and click 'update definitions' to download a definitions file"
This message appears every time Vista starts. We think it has to do with the installation of a HP printer--a Photosmart C4140 which is not fully supported by Vista and won't completely install because of that. The original problem gave this error along with a message that Vista had recovered from a serious error and then would shut down in 1 minute--which it did. Continuously.
I uninstalled the printer and all was well. Funny thing is, the computer and printer were working up until maybe 5 days ago. Perhaps installing only the basic printer drivers for the printer would make this go away? The user says he has no need for scanning, so maybe that solution would work. What we would really like to know is what on earth does the error message mean. What definitions file? What program options?

Any email that I receive that has a link in it will not go to the link. I get an error mesage that says the file does not have a program associated with it for performing the action. It says I need to "create an association in the Set Association control panel." Other times I get a pop up that says "application not found". I can't provide any more info than that. I don't know where to find the "association control panel" and when I call Windstream, my email provider, they tell me it's my computer that's screwed up and transfer me to India where I get to converse with a nice gentleman for thirty minutes and who still can't understand what I'm saying. I losing patience.

Under Windows XP I could associate different programs to do different actions on each file type, e.g. open, print, edit etc. These actions would appear on the context (right click) menu for files of that type. Now I want to change HTML files to edit with my own editor rather than with Word as they do now. All I can find however are settings to change the default program to open files with. Any one know how I can change the edit
action in Vista?

I've been trying to download Itunes to my laptop and the end results are always the same that it's "not a valid Win32 application." Now I made sure when I downloaded it that it was for a pc not mac. And I also downloaded it 3 different times just in case something went wrong with the installing process.

Computer Club member's Windows Vista Home Premium. The message above says it all. No .exe file will run. I have drilled down to winword.exe, and double clicked. I have clicked icons on the desktop. I have clicked programs on the start menu. In safe mode, I have downloaded a new version of Windows Installer, when Run is clicked the subject message appears.
When using Window Explorer, no .exe file has an icon associated with it! When I open Programs & Features in the Control Panel. Programs cannot be removed as the subject message appears.

"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create and association in the Set Associations control panel" I have been having a problem with my computer for several days now. Opening all programs causes me to recieve this error message. I have to use right click + Run as Administrator to use any of my programs. I have done some forum surfing and tried several recommended techniques for correcting this problem but to no avail. I downloaded the exefix_vista reg file but the very same problem prevents me from merging it (I even tried fixing the reg extension but that failed aswell). I have run the sfc/scannow in command propmt but that came up empty. I would have fresh installed but I am away from home and do not have the means to reinstall vista. I apologize if this post seems in any way redundant but my forum searches have failed me. HELP! PLEASE!

Today, Microsoft announced a surge of over 150,000 voluntary reports in the past two years from people who unknowingly purchased counterfeit software that often included viruses or other malware. More than double the amount of previous records, this increase reflects growing concern for the harm caused by counterfeit software and Microsoft’s efforts to give people a voice in the fight against software counterfeiting. In addition, Microsoft highlights Consumer Action Day, a simultaneous launch of education initiatives and enforcement actions in more than 70 countries to help protect consumers and increase awareness of the risks of counterfeit software.
