Does anybody know if it is safe to uninstall the Windows 7 Media Center using Programs and Features -> Turn Windows features on or off option?
Would having it uninstalled impact the operation of any of the Windows software and do any of the pre installed programs in windows need it installed for them to function?
Since I upgraded to Windows 7, I have never really used Media Center and I don't have a TV Tuner. If I ever did need it, I could always re-install it in again but I don`t want to uninstall it if is gonna break the function and operation of other windows programs.
I 100% use Windows Media Player and other software for media playback etc and so I
though I may as well uninstall Media Center since I don't use it and it would save me some hard drive space and perhaps windows resources too.

After attempting to start my Laptop in Safe Mode, it loaded drivers normally only to crash a few seconds later. A prompt message appears but is impossible to read because Windows immediately reboots upon showing the prompt.

I am trying to upgrade from Vista 32bit to Windows 7 32bit but in the installation process the compatibility report/upgrade advisor says:
These programs might not work properly after the upgrade. We recommend uninstalling these programs before upgrading. Cancel the upgrade, open Control Panel, and search for "uninstall a program". (Note: Programs marked as * can be safely reinstalled after the upgrade.)
� ATI CATALYST Install Manager *
� ATI Catalyst Control Center *
My problem is when I click Start, Control Panel, Programs and Features, I see ATI CATALYST Install Manager (3.0.710.0) and I can completely remove it but for ATI Catalyst Control Centre I can't even see it.
So now I�m stuck on what to do next because I don't want to install windows 7 if it recommends me to uninstall ATI Catalyst Control Center. What should I do?
Just to let you know: On the windows 7 compatibility center online I search software, ATI and it says both ati install manager and catalyst control center are compatible but when i run the upgrade advisor these programs appear. (as shown above)
Any ideas/comments will be much appreciated thank you.
EXTRA DEATAILS:
I have a Sony Vaio Laptop VGN-NW11S/S with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 graphics card
ATI Catalyst control center is 2.0.0.0 shown in upgrade report.
I right click ATI icon bottom right and select 'about' and it says version 2009.0515.32.42252
Microsoft NET framework version is 2.0.50727.4200

I recently had a problem with trying to uninstall the ASK toolbar from IE9. I could not do this, even with advice. I then uninstalled the IE9 and tried to reinstall it. I have downloaded IE 9 Windows 7 x86 enu exe, When trying to install it I am informed that the process can not be completed because a later version is installed.

I downloaded a voice changer, thinking it would be funny to trick my friends. I realized it was a piece of crap, so I uninstalled it with no problem. But I had also installed 3 voice packs for it. 2 voice packs I uninstalled like normal, but the third one wouldn't let me.Then I clicked on OK, but then this window popped up:http://imm.io/VSw4So after that I just pressed OK then Cancel and then this popped up after the 2 windows were closed:http://imm.io/VSwrSomeoneI've tried to reinstall it but it goes through the same process as when I try to uninstall it.

I had Windows XP on one of my laptops and installed Windows 7 on a seperate partition to see how it would cope. Well.... it doesn't cope at all.I have the dual boot screen when I start the laptop and the default is of course the last O/S system loaded. i.e. Windows 7.Unless I am quick enough to change the bootup, it tries to load Windows 7. And when I say tries, I mean 'tries'. Windows will load after about 20 minutes but is unusable. Nothing will respond. Nothing will function.I cannot change the boot sequence on XP. I have to 'be in' Windows 7 environment to edit the boot sequence, but I cannot get there.How do I either competely uninstall 7 or at the very least change the boot sequence without 'loading' Windows 7?

Running Win7 Pro 64-bit In trying to install SP!, I find that KB2482017 .mum and .cat are corrupted. KB2482017 is a "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer." I've tried to use the "Programs and Features" to remove it, that fails. I've found a "FixIt" associated with the issue and that fails.

I have the following three programs listed in the installed programs list. They are the Cisco LEAP module, the Cisco PEAP module, and the Cisco EAP- FAST module. I understand that they have something to do with wireless. I don't use wireless, at least not in the sense of something like a wireless printer, router or things of that sort. I do have a wireless keyboard and mouse. So, are these necessary and can I uninstall them without any problems? Or?

I did a system restore to reinstall a program that I had uninstalled. It did not work. For some reason the program was only half heartedly removed, it was still on my PC but fragmented.So I decided to completely uninstall it...however, I cannot. When I click uninstall it tells me this error that it can't find some uninstall file in my appdata folder. The setup.exe for that program also tells me the same thing. So now I cannot reinstall it because I can't uninstall it in the first place!How can I force uninstall it?
