Cannot reinstall or uninstall SP1

I had a consistent crashing problem with VS 2010 with SP1 that appeared when I created a phone app. I tried to repair SP1 but got "file not found" messages. I uninstalled Visual Studio completely but SP1 was still installed. Tried to reinstall Visual studio
and and then reapply SP1.
I was able to get around some of the problems by uninstalling dotfuscator and an old version of Silverlight but now it is complaining that it can't find FsharpRedist2.0.msi (which I cannot find anywhere on the web) and Vc_runtime_x86.msi and Vc_runtime_x64.msi.
the same messages appear whether i try to reapply the SP or to remove it so I am pretty well stuck.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Don Rule

Hi Don-Rule,
Thank you for posting.
FsharpRedist2.0.msi, Vc_runtime_x86.msi and Vc_runtime_x64.msi were located in VS2010 folder when you extracted installation file into your machine.
I suggest you download VS2010
here and extract
installation file into your local hard disk and try to reinstall it again.
If you have any question, please feel free to let us know.

Cannot reinstall java sdk 6 U 12

Hi!
My disk filled up and the jdk got screwed. Files lost and stuff. So I tried to reinstall, but ended up in a loop.
Got a message saying that the software was already on my computer and asked if I wanted to reinstall. When I pressed yes it processed some then came back to the same question.
So I tried to remove the rest of the files, same result. Removed the control panels entries for the jdk, same result.
Can someone help with this?
Should be a way to remove every trace of the previous installation and re install or force a clean install without wizards screwing it up.
ahh yes, platform is windows xp.
Edited by: sigurhel on Mar 17, 2009 3:35 AM
Added platform

Solved it my self by getting a friend to mail me the files, then extracting them.
Semms to be an bug in the installer, so that if the files are gone from the disk it cannot reinstall or uninstall.

After Dell uninstalled my Adobe Premiere Elements 9 I cannot reinstall it nor any other Adobe

I recently ran into a problem with my Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and in the course of trying to reinstall a missing MSVCRT.dll file they uninstalled my Adobe Premiere Elements 9. Now I cannot reinstall it. I keep getting an unable to contact the Windows Installer Service message AND a message that says it cannot install an MSXML.dll file. I have tried everything I know, they tried everything they know, are trying to tell me I need to do a complete reinstall of my system. Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit on an Inspiron 2320. I have two separate program CD's for Adobe Elements programs and they both are unrelated disk. Neither one will install the program, they both get the same error. I had the program on a backup harddrive, I copied it and I can get the basic program to work by using the .exe file but I cannot get the addition items that originally came on a 2nd disk to install, no matter what I do. Apparently, I cannot install anything else Adobe either. AIR will not install, Adobe Premiere Elements 11 trial will not install. For that matter, I don't think the Adobe installer is installing. Dell keeps saying to talk to Adobe. Ha! If anyone can figure out what is wrong that adobe stuff wont install let me know. Or where I can get this MSCML.dll file? How to get it into the computer? I have already had to do 4 complete reinstalls on this computer since I bought it in June and I am not looking forward to having to do it yet again. Also, when I do try to install it, it install the entire program then gets to the end, gives me the error message (and you can find the files in the program files) but when you click OK or cancel the cannot instal MSXML file message, then it automatically uninstalls everything it installed and there seems to be no way to stop it.

Well, whatever Dell tech handled this, has no clue. They ruined your Windows Installer on a systemic level. Try to download the Microsoft Installer standalone package from the MS web site or let Windows Update update e.g. Internet Explorer. If that doesn't work, I'm afraid only reinstalling Windows from scratch will fix things...

I uninstalled Adobe Air and Adobe Reader and now I cannot reinstall them on the Adobe web site. I go thru the steps on Adobe site and never get a popup to RUN any programs.

I uninstalled Adobe Air and Adobe Reader and now I cannot reinstall them on the Adobe web site. I go thru the steps on Adobe site and never get a popup to RUN any programs.

Then there is something seriously wrong with either your
browser
Windows
Internet connection
I have just downloaded that installer (on Windows 7, using Pale Moon), and the download completed within less than 10 seconds. And I am some 10,000km away from the Adobe download servers.
Can you try a different browser?
Can you download anything to your computer, e.g. from Microsoft?

I uninstall Photoshop Elements 11 due to problems and cannot reinstall it

Hi,
I uninstall Photoshop Elements 11 due to problems and cannot reinstall it.
When I run the installation setup file, the application offer me only to uninstall the previous installation.
As there is no application available (as I uninstall it), the installation process stops.
I've tried to clean the registry, manually uninstall using the Adobe recommandation for the Photoshop Elements 11.
Impossible to obtain a recovery of the installation process.
Thanks for helping
Regards

That's a tough one, and since you speak english and am not an Elements expert, I moved this thread to the Photoshop Elements forum.

I can't open, reinstall or uninstall my itunes

I downloaded iTunes for the 64 bit model a month ago, and it was working fine. But last week, I couldn't open it anymore.
I've tried to reinstall and uninstall it but a page always pops up that says "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes64.msi' in the box below."
And I click okay to the use source, but it says "The path cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'iTunes64.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes."
I have the file, but it's not the "complete" version of it and I can't get the complete version of it... What should I do? Any helpful comments or suggestions are appreciated

When attempting to upgrade the latest Apple Quicktime/iTunes on
Windows7 x64, I experienced the same issues that other people were having: several errors, the upgrade failed, and the existing installation is broken. The issue appears to be the permissions on the keys by the previous version were incorrectly set and are now not accessible. By restoring the permissions on the keys, you'll be able to uninstall the old version and install the new version.
Here's how:
Open the Control Panel and go to Programs and Features. It could take a few minutes for the list to complete populating. When the list is complete, uninstall everything Apple, including iTunes, Bonjour, and Quicktime.
Some will uninstall ok, but some of the components will error out with a message saying that it
"Could not open the key:
UNKNOWN\Components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF18C3B9B1A1EE8\(SubKey Name). Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel."
Right click Start and open Windows Explorer.
Make sure that you can see all files. On the Menu Bar, select
Tools, then Folder Options. Go to the View tab. Under Hidden Files and Folders, make sure that "Show hidden files, folders, or drives" is selected. Also, UNselect "Hide protected operating system files". Click OK. You'll get a warning about displaying the protected files. Select "Yes" and OK on the Folder Options.
Navigate to C:\Windows\System32
Find Regedt32, right click, and open as an administrator.
In the left pane, go to the top of the registry, and highlight
Computer.
Search for the offending key. Go Edit, then Find, put in the key name: "DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF18C3B9B1A1EE8".
Several of the subkeys under this key have no permissions set for them. When you click on them, you will get an error saying "Error Opening Key", "(the key name) cannot be opened."..."Details: Access is denied." Click OK.
In the left pane, right click on the parent key,
"DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF18C3B9B1A1EE8" and select Permissions.
Click Advanced.
Go to the Owner tab.
Click on Administrators, check the "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects" box, and click on Apply.
Go back to the Permissions tab. Check the "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this objects" box, and click on Apply.
You'll get a Windows Security warning about replacing all the
permissions. Select Yes, then OK, and OK again to close the
Permissions window.
You've now reset the permissions that should allow you uninstall the rest of the old components and install the new one.
Make sure that you install the x64 bit version of iTunes/Quicktime.

Cannot reinstall PS5 on the same PC

Last week I have reinstalled my PC with Win7 Ultimate (clean install)
As I was having some problems after installing PS5 as well, I uninstalled it from Programs and Features to reinstall it.
Now I cannot reinstall it any more.
I checked with the 'Advisor' and it keeps saying I should first uninstall CS4 or CS5 though I never had CS4 and Photoshop has been uninstalled and the PC rebooted.
I do still have a LR3.6 installation, though, which I finally got working properly after trying twice as well and do not want to uninstall that.
The error I get:
Can somebody please advise?
Thanks and grts
Nil

Hi kglad,
No, the problem is not solved at all...
Sorry if I sounded a bit grumpy but this thing is really giving my nerves a workout.
And - I did not expect a crash either... I have uninstalled and reinstalled my previous version CS2 several times under other Windows versions, among others on a Vista laptop to see if it would be ok - no problem at all. Same with PS5. The only differece now is that my Win7 is 64 bits and I start wondering if that is not the problem... PS installed the 64 bits too as far as I could see but something has gone awfully wrong...
Windows is fine now and everything in and around it working fine too as long as I don't go anywhere near PS. After the last repair of Windows mentioned here I tried the Clear Tool again - and all went down again... Another repair...
At the moment I am giving myself a break from it all but to me PS and LR are the most important things on the PC. All else I could do from my laptop as well... I am playing with the idea that reinstalling Win7 all over again will be the only way to get rid of it and reinstall (and see if it goes any better)... but well - all that work all over again? Not an attractive idea...
If you have any more ideas what I could try, I'm open to suggestions...
An addition on tuesday:
Anybody any idea where I can download the trial version of Photoshop CS5?
Wherever I look, it starts saying CS5 and then I end up on a site with CS6....

Cannot Reinstall Acrobat Pro 7.0

I have CS2. I uninstalled Acrobat Pro 7.0. Now I cannot reinstall it from the original software. Install runs but does not install anything, nor does it show any error messages. I have XP SP3 and IE8. I have Reader 9.1.2 The other componens of CS2 work fine. Any help?

Adobe recommends that you do not have Acrobat and Acrobat Reader installed on the same system. The programs have files that each products installs in the same folders that can cause all kinds of problems such as yours. I strongly suggest you remove Acrobat Reader using the Windows Install Cleanup Utility. Then reinstall Acrobat Pro. You still will be able to view PDF files in your browser with Acrobat itself without Reader being installed.
Good luck.

Cannot reinstall CS3 on Windows 7 after Acrobat update

I, like so many others, cannot reinstall CS3 on Windows 7. CS3 stopped working after I updated Acrobat (which I now wish I hadn't done), it was working fine for months previously. I got the 'needs uninstall/reinstall' error.
I am reinstalling from files saved on my computer, not DVD. I tried every solution I could find online (the cleanscript, deactivating firewall, deactivating UAC, uninstalling google desktop, registering jscript.dll) Doing a clean Windows reinstall is not an option I'm willing to try. I tried chatting with customer service, who couldn't help me and referred me to the phone technical support. I tried that and the tech guy told me CS3 is no longer supported, so he couldn't help me, unless of course I wanted to pay a $50 fee). I can get Acrobat Pro and shared components to install, but all other components fail.
Is it just me, or is it mightily suspicious that this happens to so many other people? I'm willing to bet that Adobe engineers their updates to 'fail' older versions figuring we'll eventually give up trying to fix it and eventually just upgrade. Adobe- you sold me a license with no expiration date. Why not eliminate all the subterfuge and start selling 5yr licenses?

This just happened to me tonight.   Acrobat requested an update. I said YES, update now. And now my CS3 Web Premium doesn't work. I should have known.
I've tried everything. Adobe cleaners, licence tools, renaming folders (flex_something folder), resetting folder permissions (Adobe PCD), start services > flex_something, etc.   Can't get anything to work.
Something like this happens about every 6 months or so. Takes me 3 days to get it running again. Man, I'm exhausted trying to keep this software running.
What gives?   Any advise?
Runnning: Windows 7 64bit, Web Premium CS3
Error: You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT administrator or Adobe customer support for help.
