Deleted ITunes Folder Now Unable To Uninstall From Control Panel
Mar 23, 2011
I deleted the whole iTunes folder from my computer, and since I did that when I go to uninstall it in the control panel, it cannot find the file so it won't uninstall and I tried to re-install it but it's not working. I use Windows 7 Starter.
I am unable to open "Uninstall a program" through control panel. Every time when I try to open it, I get the following error message"
"Windows cannot find '::{26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683}...:{7B81BE6A-CE2B-4676-A29E-EB907A5126C5}' Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again".
However, I can open this in safe mode. Unsure why this is the case. I use Win 7 64bit.
I am trying to delete an old version of iTunes to install newest version for connectivity with my new iPad.It won't let me delete it from the control panel.
I am wondering why some of my installed programs do not show up in control paneluninstall programs, am also wondering if there is away to make the list of programs in unistall programs show up in alphabetical order.Also if I cannot uninstall programs any other way does it create any potential problems if I just delete the folder(s) containing the program?
When you go to your User Account , open Control Panel and click on Install/Uninstall, does it list programs that the User Account downloaded or does it list programs for all accounts, including Administrator Account Downloads?
i have tried to remove avast av using control panel uninstall,revo uninstaller and tried stopping it at start up using msconfig.i just cannot get rid of it any ideas?
I've tried installing the OS two times, both times my video card has not been recognized. It was properly recognized in the following builds: 7000, 7048, 7057, 7068, 7077. I've tried using ATi Catalyst and also used the following process suggested on techPowerUp! Forums - Powered by vBulletin with no luck:
1, Uninstall existing drivers through Control Panel, reboot in safe mode and run Driver Sweeper to clean up, then:
2, Go here and download the 61.1mb package
3, Go here and download Mobility Modder the install it
4, Go here to download the update, and extract the file into the Mod Tool Directory, overwriting the previous file
5, Run the ATI driver package you downloaded earlier, then cancel after it has been extracted (when you see a black window with orange buttons)
6, Run the Mobility Modder, pointing to the driver folder e.g: C:ATISupport 9_3_vista 64_win7_64_dd_ccc_wdm_enu
7, When complete, close mobility modder, navigate yourself to the above folder and run setup.exe
8, Go to C:ATISupport9_3_vista64_win7_64_dd_ccc_wdm_enu DriverPackagesDriversDisplay LH6A_INF
9, At the end it will most likely fail, however, before rebooting, go to device manager, right click and and click update driver, click browse my computer for software, then click browse and point to:C:ATISupport9_ 3_vista64_win7_64_dd_ccc_wdm_enuDriverPackages DriversDisplayLH6A_INF
10, Click next and it should install the driver. Reboot and all should be okay!
The program in question was stored in drive D which is a partition of my main drive. Even CC cleaner cant even find the program. So how do I get rid of the program? I can't just delete it to free up space cant i?
I'm running Windows 7 (64bit) and made the mistake of installing an old version of Cyberlink PowerDVD, only to discover it's incompatible with Windows 7. So I have been trying to uninstall it to no avail. I've read some other posts online and they are very technical for me to follow. Anybody have a solution they can put forth in layman's terms. I'm not afraid of going in the Registry; I just need to know exactly what to do to fully uninstall this program! Then ... I promise I'll use Windows Media Center to play my DVDs!
For some reason I can't view anything that is under the control panel as well as the control panel itself. I can open everything else fine such as pics, music, games, videos. But anything that has to with the control panel I can't see. The task bar says the folder is open but I see nothing.I have tried the following: ran sfc, it says nothing is wrong, tried to create a new user account, but I can't since it falls under the control panel. I tried to create a new user account through the guest account (I was able to make it an administrator) but it says I can't create a new account with special characters such as $=- etc... I didn't use any special characters at all so I don't know why it's saying that. It seems to me that this is a registry problem, and I'm a little uncomfortable with the registry and don't like to mess with it at all. Worse comes to worse I'm going to try to reinstall windows
Recently, I lost access to many of the programs from my desktop. For example...when I try to open My Computer, or Recycle Bin, or Control Panel, I get an error panel stating....."This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program, or if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel." Unfortunately, I cannot access the Default Programs program either, for the same reason.
I am all of a sudden unable to access explorer or control panel, am getting "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have appropriate permissions to access the item. My internet connection icon in task bar shows no connections but I am able to access the internet. My Sound icon says the Audio service is not running. Machine will not boot into safe mode, can't access explorer from command line, anti-virus (Panda) will not run, Lavasoft Ad-Aware will not run and have been able run a virus scan from Trend Micro (Housecall) and it found nothing..
Unable to remove windows essentials from control panel. receive a message saying it is removed but it is still listed and the icon remains. Also, another problem is that I cannot get into my windows mail. receive notes that wlidcli.dll and msmail.dll is missing and needs to be installed. receives codes 800ccc0f and 0x0040609. How do I either reinstall the missing drivers? and/or remove the program from my computer. Info Utility version 1.0.0.2

I recently decided to reinstall Win 7 as it`s been about a year and things are starting to go a bit awry. For instance I can no longer open the Start Menu Control Panel without it hanging and having to restart Explorer. The real problem though is that my DVD drive won`t recognize formatted disks. If I put in a blank up it pops, but nothing else. Device manager says its all ok.
I am unable to open "Computer", "Control Panel", "Devices and Printers" or any of the other options when I click on the start icon in the task bar. I receive the error message "Server execution failed" I have Windows 7 operating system.
I would like to set the default folder view to be set to details, and control panel view set to small icons. I would like this set for the default user profile. What the relevant registry entries are ?
When I go to Control PanelAll Control Panel ItemsNotification Area Icons dialog then there are a lot of programs which are already uninstalled.
How can I cleanup/delete all these useless entries? How can I delete ONE single entry manually?
Second question: Assume I want to hide icons and notification for mutiple/all entries (here approx 40 items) in ONE STEP.
Third question: How can I save/backup the current notification settings (for later restore) into a file? Are these notifcation settings stored in a certain branch of the Registry (which exactly) ?
Basically I've got a question about the uninstall feature with windows 7. See, I just tried out windows 8 and noticed that the uninstall window only had the two programs which I had manually installed, Firefox and Xfire.Windows 7 has all the programs I install, just seems like there are duplicates. Here's a screenshot of part of my uninstall window.

I cannot do a system restore cause it wont let me says denied

Alright, so it started around 5-7 days ago. Photoviewer started giving a message with this line,C:Program FilesWindows Photo ViewerPhotoViewer.dll is not a valid win32 application.Searched on google, first thing it said was to check if there's any viruses. I scanned it with super-antispyware and had one virus. Did the sfc /scannow and it says it couldn't repair some files (CBS logs are over 3mb ). Cleared the virus and after two days, most of the items in control panel doesn't do anything when I try to click on it (i.e Power Options, Backup & Restore, Firewall) or it gives the line,Windows cannot find '::{26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371,Paint and opening other things through Start Menu gives this fine,C:Windowssystem32ODBC32.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error
I've tried this twice now (on the same machine) and each time Control Panel won't work; it doesn't open. If I change the start menu to show links to Control Panel applets only some of them work; User Accounts, Display, Power Settings, Windows Update and others just do nothing. This means I can't adjust my display properties to get the correct alignment of my dual monitors, among other things, so I've given up on it meantime.
Has anyone else had this problem, or any suggestions on how to overcome it?
