I've seen a lot of complaints about this problem but no solutions.I am getting this message:error getting file securityc:ProgramDataAppleComputerInstaller CacheQuickTime 7.65.75.0GetLastError: 5when I try to upgrade from iTunes 10.0.0.68 to 10.3.1. This includes anupgrade of QuickTime.Any ideas on how to really fix this so that I can upgrade
View 7 RepliesI wouldn't let Quicktime near my PC except iTunes requires it, and I need iTunes to sync iPhones.Once I install it, Quicktime hijacks IE9 and Firefox, attempting to play certain media files in a browser window when I really want them to open up in Windows Media Player instead.I disabled everthying I could through Quicktime's settings and MIME file type menus, restored all the file associations I could through the Windows 7 control panel and checked the browsers for any Add-Ons to be disabled, yet Quicktime still opens up certain .mp3 and .asp links (along with anything else I haven't discovered yet)I even tried using the standalone Quicktime installer hoping it would offer some better options to uncheck during the install process but that was no better. Apple seems to have decided its mandatory Quicktime player is the most important media player on my PC but I wholeheartedly disagree

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. This is the first software I've ever had a problem with. Is this a Windows problem or a VMware problem? Does VMware Workstation need admin privileges even though it's a separate program?
I have been ignoring this for sometime but just bought myself a nano and need the latest itunes in order to use it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI get a notice that there are updates for Quicktime, so I tell it to go ahead and it always fails with an error that says Getlasterror 5:Today I decided to fix this so I did some research and found that it's a fairly common problem.I didn't find any really concise answer, but Microsoft said to install a registry entry that adds the command "Grant Admin Full Control" to the right click drop down.I did that, it will be interesting to see if that works for some other access problems.However it didn't do anything for Quicktime.It will not let me uninstall the old version and it won't let me install the new version.I always get the Getlasterror 5, error which is caused by Windows not allowing the process to complete.Any one else run into this.I have seen posts that say to physically delete the Quicktime software but I don't really want to do that, I'm afraid I'll end up with no working version.I'm open to suggestions, this isn't a big deal, because the older version is installed and working.The same thing happens when trying to update ITunes, so it's and Apple, Windows thing.These over the top security issues are the only thing that really bugs me about Windows 7, I've been dealing with these ever since I started running it in beta.

View 4 Replies View RelatedA few months ago I've been having issues with attempting to install Flash Player and QuickTime. I'm currently using Firefox 7.0 and Internet Explorer 8 as a backup browser. In Firefox, the installation works, but whenever I restart the computer, it requires another installation. Whenever I attempt an IE installation, I get the "failed to register" message, citing problems with the ActiveX control. Prior to all this, I hadn't any problems with either browser's handling the Flash Player.I've tried several corrective methods online, but nothing seems to fix the problem.I've also had issues with QuickTime installs; install attempts have been met with the "Error 46: Could not load or find the QuickTime ActiveX control" message.The ActiveX control seems to be the culprit in both cases and I'm beginning to suspect it might be a registry problem, but I'm not sure
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out a few pieces of information about the status of my computer after a 2 week period of accidental read / write file sharing. Here's the list:
1. I want to figure out if there's a log function to show when Password Protected Sharing was enabled or disabled.
2. I need to know who on my network has accessed, modified, or viewed files on my pc (I wasn't running any log programs nor did I have auditing enabled on any folders).
3. I want to know if any files were created on my computer by other network users.
Backstory: A few months ago my old PC died and I bought a brand new one. I salvaged one of the hard drives from the old PC and put it into the new one, for the purpose of backing up the info and having a second hard drive. Some of the original folders were from a My Documents folder on a Win XP install, so transferring onto a Windows 7 Professional install was kind of a pain. After some messing around with the sharing settings and "admin access" type of settings in the permissions tab, I was able to back up my files. I guess during the above described process, I somehow ended up setting a few REALLY sensitive folders as "network shared", despite never using a network to transfer any of this. I guess I clicked something wrong under the permissions tab, or sharing tab or something. Anyway, this isn't a complete list, but I know these folders were shared:
C:\Windows (and all subfolders)
C:\Users (my documents, desktop, etc)
So. Back to my list of stuff I'm trying to figure out. Firstly, the Password Protection. It's possible that I disabled this in a misguided attempt at forcing the computer to stop prompting me for a login every time I moved a folder...but I don't remember turning it off. Is there a way to see if and when I had it off? Because, correct me if I'm wrong, but literally all of my paranoia and this entire problem would be a moot point if Password Protection HAD been enabled; Anyone would need a password to edit, create, or open files regardless of whether or not I had my files set to full read/write access, correct?
I would like to move MyDocuments folder from my C: Drive (an SSD) to my D: Drive. (C:UsersXXXXMy Documents)
I've seen the instructions: right click--Properties--Location--Move.
However, when I do this the security settings of the old folder do not copy over.
I would like the same settings to copy over. How do you do that?
I removed Security Shield 2012 from my laptop which has Windows 7. All went well until I got to Step 23 in Bleeping Computer website (.../virus-removal/remove-security-shield). I deleted the HOSTS file and downloaded Windows 7 HOSTS file. However, I can't save it in the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\HOSTS file. I unchecked the hide system protected files but still can't find it beyond "drivers."
View 7 Replies View Relatedthis morning I clicked on an image online and ended up with the My Security Shield infection. I successfully went through the removal process as recommended by bleepingcomputer - but have been unable to complete the last step - deleting the HOSTS file. I just went to the cmd prompt and typed in del c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\HOSTS and was denied. What should I try next?
View 3 Replies View RelatedTrying to download a GIS mapping program from Purdue Univ. Seems to download to my "Dwonloads" file. When I look at the Download folder it shows an icon with correct title, but I can't see any files when I double click on it. This is not a "file folder" icon. I get an "Open file Security Warning" pop up. Shows run or cancel. Hit run it brings up "Win Zip Self Extractor" pop up. I have already supposedly unzipped this into the downloads. Have been through the issues of downloading Google Earth and think I have worked this out.

It's in C:GamesCiv IV, so I've tried changing the permissions of users to modify and write enabled. However I get the 'error applying security' message with no prompts as to how to solve the probem!
The interesting thing is it applies the changes anyway, even though it tells me I'm not allowed - security flaw!

After 20 failed attempts to install windows 7 (it kept freezing at the completing installation part) it worked after i disconnected the new graphics card and one of the hard drives. Now, however, i keep on getting periodic blue screens with the following error messages : Memory Management, and PFN_List Corrupt. I ran a memory diagnostic and it said that the memory is fine.

Recently whenever I've used an .exe installer I'll get an error as soon as I click start after choosing the directory, in the picture example I include below, it's of SA-MP, but it happens with any installer I try and use. Installers have worked previously, it's only recently it's stopped working.The error is;Error opening files for writing?
What I've tried;
-Full system scan with Comodo AV.
-Revealed hidden files and folders.
-Run the installer in both compatability (Even though it does work on Windows 7, and as an Administrator).
-Also done the scan on CMD (can't remember exact command).
Brief Info:
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.
