Adobe Download Manager won't uninstall - causing blue screen crash

Brand new PC, Windows 7, worked fine for couple of days until I installed Flash Player 10 Active X - now the operating system continually crashes around after 5 mins each time I reboot.
Error message
"problem starting C:\ProgramFiles(x86)\NOS\bin\getPlus_Helper.dll
the specified module could not be found"
Having search the web, which suggested a possible problem with Flash Player 10 installation, I removed this downloaded this file: uninstall_flash_player.exe and ran to uninsall), but Adobe Download Manager is still in the list - trying to uninstall the DLM just gives the same error message as above.
Does anyone have a solution to a) remove the DLM and b) successfully install Flash without breaking the system!

I just installed this last night and I also had this problem and still do
. I went into windows 7 uninstall and it will not let me uninstall adobe 9 and the manager at all. it tells me i n
eed system permissions (which I tried to do and either i did it wrong (could be) ) and it still tells me
I can uninstall it. Due to system or administrator etc.
after 1 hour searching on how to set permissions and this is also a new pc i thought better and stopped.
Also when I go to the uninstall _control panel it gets kinked up on the removing adobe 9 so that i have to go into task manager and stop it.
I have gone into the adobe folder and manaully removed (tried) what i could delete but I still have the 9 and the manager there.
I would love to use this never had a problem before and would just like the add the flash player and reader but not the gertPlus thing /manager that started it all.
PLEASE HELP!

Clicking on firefox icon causes blue screen crash

This began Friday, Feb. 25, about mid day. The only changes to the system that morning were an update to an Adobe plugin, either Flash player or Shockwave, I'm not sure, and an update to the Scottrade Elite desktop trading app. Both of those changes occurred about 0900. The problems began about 1130 when the system, Windows 7 Home Premium had a blue screen crash. From that time on, I have uninstalled each of the apps mentioned. I cannot open Firefox to work on the plugins becuase every time I click on the icon I get a blue screen crash with the words "Page fault in non paged area" at the top. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled the Firefox app with no apparent beneficial effect. The Scottrade trading app has been reinstalled and works well, causing no further probs.

Hello mrcart,
i think it is unlikely that firefox itself is causing an operating system crash, i had some time back an similar issue where a system of a friend of mine was crashing while using IE - thats the only app he used ... the system in his case had faulty ram, and i suspect you are facing some sort of hardware problem or faulty device driver.
Please read this (also lists steps what you can do):
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc957625.aspx
(personally) I would suggest you start by checking your ram, you can do this in two ways:
Search in your Windows 7 Start Menu for "ram", you should find something like "Diagnose your computer´s memory problems"
... Or, you use the memtest86+ tool from here (e.g. download the iso, burn it and boot from the cd):
http://www.memtest.org/
Check your eventlog for errors (e.g. disk errors, timeouts, etc).
If you cannot track the problem down (i would suspect a hardware problem or faulty device driver ... e.g. it could be your video card driver doing something wrong) you should seek help at your computer manufacturer, an experienced friend, or using some forum.
kind regards,
John Kirk.

Blank CD's cause blue screen crashes?

I\'m running W7 on a Pavilion Slimline s5213w using HP DVD R 16x 4.7Gb Data disks. The problem is that with brand new, straight out of the box cd\'s, about half of them work and half cause an almost immediate blue screen crash. All I do is insert a disk and then in Computer either double click or right click the cd reader and Computer freezes. Then no matter what I do I get a blue screen. This problem seems to be in the disks and not the drive but I can\'t see how a disk could be so poisonous to the computer unless there is something wrong with the disk software. Any help would be appreciated.
This question was solved.

Hello JCV,
You’re having problems with the computer crashing every time that you try to use a disk.
Go into device manager and uninstall the DVD drive. There could be a problem with the driver.
Here is a link to device manager.
Also go to HP.com and update the optical drive.
Here is a link to both updates.

Access to istore causes blue screen crash

I am running an ipod and itouch - PC is Windows XP.
With the newest version of itunes, everything works fine between itunes on the PC and the devices, EXCEPT trying to access the store for music or podcasts. I see the headings of the store displayed, then I get a blue screen crash. This happens with the devices attached, or not.

The first thing to do is get the error codes from the crash.
Here is an older post from b noir that explains how to find the error codes.

Audigy 2 Value causing blue screen crashes in Fallout 3

A couple days ago I updated all my drivers and soon after realised that something was causing Fallout 3 to crash to a blue screen. After hours of trial and error I narrowed it down to the new Audigy driver cause when i uninstall the sound card the game works perfectly (except that there's no sound). I've tried rolling back to the drivers I was using before but for some crazy reason it's still crashing.
Another crazy thing is that no other game or program is having this problem.
Anyone have some advice or ideas about what to do?

wow....so I sent an email in to tech support asking for help with this problem and all I get in response is an email telling me that based on the information I provided they won't even look at my problem cause i'm no longer covered by the warranty....what a bunch of crap....
0 years of buying Sound Blaster sound cards, more than 8 of them during that time, and the first time I have a problem with one this is what I get?

CS 4 installation causes blue screen crash when printing

I installed CS 4 successfully and used it for months with no difficulty at work. This weekend, I brought my computer home to do some work, and everytime I send something to my printer/scanner (a Canon MP780), my computer (IBM ThinkPad laptop running on Windows XP) crashes with a blue screen error. When I try to use the scanner, I get the same problem. I have reinstalled printer driver and USB port drivers, with no change to the problem. I finally uninstalled CS 4, and was able to print and scan normally. When I re-installed the Adobe software, the crashing began again. The crashing does not happen when I am using the Adobe software, only when I try to print or scan any document from any software - then it happens consistently. When the Adobe software is off, no problems. Anyone have advice?

Firefox Causes "BLUE SCREEN CRASH"

Hello There.
To my utter dismay I am forced to use Chrome to access this forum. The reason is the moment I use Firefox (3) my computer crashes and I get the dreaded windows blue screen. I have been using ff for a long time now without problems. Yesterday I updated adobe flash player, but have now uninstalled flash player in the hope that the problem is resolved. No luck. I can use my computer in normal manner without problems, but the moment I use ff it crashes

I have this problem too, just installed Windows 7 Home Premium x64 two days ago. Yesterday I did a massive windows update and I believe the BSODs started after that. I've isolated it down to Firefox, partly because I had a similar problem with Vista x64 prior to the Win 7 upgrade and had removed Firefox from the machine completely w/o giving it too much thought.
Last night I found a way that 100% crashes windows within 5 mins, 5 times in a row, open firefox, open certain tabs and just wait. BSOD.
Note I also use Thunderbird but that doesn't seam to crash windows.
I found two separate threads on other forums suggesting this might have something to do with fonts. Not sure why Firefox is the only application suffering from it though. So from another thread following steps were suggested that are shown below, I haven't tried these. Another user on a different forum suggested running windows repair and through that somehow fixing the fonts. I'll report later if this issue helps solve the problem.
1. this may seem random, but might be worth a shot... i think this problem
often occurs because of registry errors with the fonts... this solution fixes
that. if you browse to windows/fonts and immediately get a blue screen, then
the fonts are your problem
2. first try going to control panel > fonts >font settings (on left) > restore
default fonts
3. if you can't access fonts in the control panel then try this... in explorer go
here: \\%COMPUTERNAME%\C$\Windows\Fonts (replacing %computername% with your computername).
4. then hit ctrl+a to select all the fonts.
5. once they're all selected right click and select "install".
6. when the dialogue box pops up saying that "[such and such] font is
already installed, would you like to reinstall it?" click the box for "do this for
all current items", and hit "yes"
7. reboot (just for grins), and you should be good to go

IPod touch causes "blue screen" crash on connection

So, following a defrag on my XP based pc, when I connect my iPod touch to the pc via USB, the PC immediately blue screens. (STOP 0x0000007E 0xc00000005 0x00000000 0xf78ed7c4 0xf78ed4c0).
I suspect it may be the iPod touch USB driver? Is that likely? If so, how do I remove the corrupt driver and reinstall?
Thanks

Thankfully, after a few changes and reviewing some of the other posts in this excellent forum, I have resolved the problem. It had nothing to do with the defrag at all. What I had omitted was that prior to the blue screen, I had installed the free Photoshop Mobile App from Adobe. By editing and saving a photo, a new directory was created in the photo albums. Then when I connected the iPod to my PC, for reasons best known to Aple (but see various other threads in this forum) the pc thought the iPod was a camera, and tried to load a USB camera driver. I assume this must have conflicted with an existing USB driver on my pc, causing it to "blue screen". By totally removing the app and the new album on my iPod, I was able to make my pc recognise the iPod as an iPod again. Shame, I thought the photoshop app was good, but I shall avoid it (and any other app that creates albums / photos) in future.
Is there any obvious way to alert Apple to these sort of problems with third party apps - or possibly with their OS on the iPod which should be able to stop errors like this?

Cisco VPN Client causes blue screen crash on WindowsXP Pro (Satellite M30)

Hi there,
I've got a Satellite Pro M30 running Windows XP Professional.
After starting a vpn Tunnel via a Cisco VPN Client (Version 4.6 and 4.7) the system crashes with a blue screen.
I can see that the key exchange is successful, but immediatly after the vpn connection gets established Windows XP crashes with a blue screen.
Has anyone an idea, how to solve this problem?
Maybe by device driver update? And if so, which driver should be updated?
Kind regards,
Thorsten

Hi R2D2 (and anyone else)!
1st of all (concerning your link) - I'm not using the wireless adapter.
I am connectet via 100Mbit via network-cable to my hub (all RJ45 TP Cat.5)
I found several other Notebook users by google'ing who have the same problem different vpn-clients but most of them with a centrino processor inside the notebook.
Almost all of them solved the problem by installing new drivers. But I can't use driver-patches from other Notebook to fix my Toshiba Drivers.
What could help is information about which driver is responsible for the crash by vpn clients on centrino notebooks. Maybe there is an Intel driver for it, but when I do not know which one causes the problem it's like seeking a needle in a haystack... :(
Disabling ALL other network devices (wireless, 1394-network adapter, modem, etc.) did not solve the problem.
I used the Cisco VPN clients several times on my old Compaq Notebook without any problems, but here it just doesn't work.
An idea which driver should be updated is kindly welcome!
Thank you, Thorsten

Schannel errors - appears to be causing blue screens

Hi guys
Every once in a while (a few times a month) our RDS server (server 200r82 hyper-v VM) decides to blue screen and restart.
Each and every time it crashes, we notice hundreds and hundreds of schannel errors appearing just before the crash (event ID 36888)
Well, it did it again this afternoon, and over the last 12 hours we noticed 1008 instances of this error, with 60 odd messages appearing within 0.2 seconds of each other, and 2 minutes before the crash.
I also noticed that just before the crash, there were a handful of services which hung seconds before the logged unexpected shutdown event. These services are as follows.
- UmRDPService
- WPDBusEnum
- UxSMS
- Audio Endpoint Builder
After the crash, it doesnt log any Schannel errors. although, saying this now and just checking again, it looks like its logged 127 instances of the same schannel error, starting from after around 2 hours of bringing the server back online.
Do these Schannel errors cause blue screens/crashes? Or is it something else I should be looking at... I'm at a loss, as there's not a lot more in the way of logs that seem to be telling me what's going on..

Hi EsDood,
Would you please let me know complete message of Event ID
36888? For Event ID 36888, it generally occur if a user tries to access a web site using HTTP but specifies an SSL port in the URL. Please check the Schannel tracing log if find relevant clues.
How to enable Schannel event logging in IIS
Please also refer to following thread and check if can help you.
Schannel
error, Event ID 36888? - IS there a way to Identify what causes Schannel to log error?
In addition, I noticed that a BSOD issue occurred on the Windows Server 2008 R2. Troubleshoot this kind of
kernel crash issue, we need to analyze the crash dump file to narrow down the root cause of the issue. Did you get any dump files? If get, please refer to

Adobe Download Manager Creative Cloud.

I’ve been back and fourth with customer service about an issue I’ve encountered after installing creative cloud, more specifically in the downloading stage. Most of the trouble-shooting steps have failed, and although I have not completed them all, I want to see if someone I the adobe community can resolve this issue.
I’ve been attempting to install creative suit on my laptop which has
windows XP version 2011 service pack 3. My internet browser is Mozilla
Originally when I purchased the subscription and after installing attempted to download the actual software to my computer and I was left with an error message stating: “the remote server is not responding in a proper manner. Please retry after a few minutes”. I did and same result.
A customer service rep provided me with a link to a patch.
Once again the install of the program worked but once I managed to get to the download part of it a new error message appeared
“Adobe Download Manager is corrupted and must be reinstalled. Download now (which I did and it takes me to the page with the patch which i was already provided), or contact customer service”.
I returned to customer service and was provided with the creative suite cleaner. I cleared out the original installation and (just in case) uninstalled my trial software Adobe Ill. (which, by the way I have no issues whatsoever installing any trial software. My only issue is with this.)
I installed adobe creative cloud again, install went well once again the same error message has before appeared (the file is corrupted) I can’t figure this out, and it’s killing me. I have on my computer an old version of photoshopcs2 and adobe flash 11 active X (I don’t know if that matters). I’ve tried many different alternatives, went has far has created a new admin account on my computer to see if that will do the trick, yet still left with that dreaded error message. I really hope someone can help me resolve this.

Adobe Application Manager Won't Open and CC Desktop failed to install

I am running Win 7 Ultimate. Adobe Application Manager Won't Open and CC Desktop failed to install on my computer after I signed up for Adobe CC tonight. I am currently using the CS5 suite (perpetual license) and do not want to uninstall any of the programs until I am successfully running the Adobe CC versions. The AAM gives me an error message saying that it failed to open when I select it, and the creative cloud installer fails to install. I have tried restarting my computer. Help? This is very frustrating. I am a student and use this software on a daily basis, and can't afford to not have these programs available when I need them.

Cannot abort a download on Adobe Download Manager - Help!

Hi there,
I'm have an EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING problem. I spent a good few hours downloading the trial for After Effects. It got to the 'extracting' stage on the Download Manager and showed an error saying that the disk image couldn't be opened. No idea why this happened, but that's not even my problem. I deleted the downloaded .dmg file for After effects and tried to stop the current download which was still stuck on the 'extracting' message, but I can't actually click the little 'x' to stop it, it won't let me. So, I've uninstalled and then re-installed the Adobe Download Manager about 3 times, and every time i open it it's STILL there, stuck on 'extracting' this AE download that I've already deleted anyway. I just want to restart the whole thing, start downloading AE again, but I can't get off this download for the life of me!
Anyone know how I can just force this download to abort in the Download Manager without having to press the little 'x' on the right, which appears to be frozen/inaccessible since I can't click it....
HELP THIS IS REALLY FRUSTRATING! It's urgent I get the trial up and running as soon as possible...
I'm on a Mac running Lion.

Jobenmardoukas I would recommend deleting the following folders after uninstalling the Adobe Download Assistant:
/[user name]/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.downloadassistant.AdobeDownloadAssistant
/[user name]/Library/Caches/com.adobe.downloadassistant.AdobeDownloadAssistant
This should resolve your difficulties with the download continually trying to extract.
