Apps in installed app list in control panel- 'from...

Hi
E73 running symbian etc. on T-mobile network. Used on an Wireless LAN for calls / web as well as regular cell, as per most people.
I found (looking from both PC-suite and via phone's application manager) that I had new installs of Fr0MA_0x2000E2FC, the Fr0MA_installer, MDM_Client, Media DS Plugin, MMS DS Plugin, PIPS Installer,etc. Never saw them earlier.
These are new to me, but web searches show they can be associated with digital rights. However, given potential power of the Apps from a remote site I was worried.
Questions for forum:
1. If I remove them is there any risk to phone use (i.e., if needed can I reinstall them).
2. Where are they likely to have recently appeared from (another app's support, malware, T-mobile or Nokia).
Thanks in advance for help

thanks for the reply
PIPS_installer  has certificates from Symbian CA I
Nokia as supplier
I think it may be a pipes add-on for python and SDKs. Still checking...
Re. MDM and froma processes:
Killing the running mdm_daemon processes etc.,  prevents downloads from the Nokia site / Ovi,  but their loss apears to do nothing else to phone function otherwise. I dont do music downloads from Nokia or other sites...
 I presume they would also fail as the DRM targets.

Welcome to the board.  I'm surprised none of the moderators moved your post to the E-Series section.
I also have an E73, and once asked about the Fr0MA and MDM installs myself: /t5/Eseries-and-Communicators/What-are-mdm-installer-sis-and-FrOMA-S603-2-11-sisx/m-p/909183 .  (The link I posted no longer works.)  The answer made sense to me only in the context of Nokia's (now defunct?) DRM music service...which was never supported on this phone.  I have the .sis installers for Fr0MA_0x2000E2FC and MDM_Client sitting on my C: drive, and with those, the Fr0MA_installer may be unnecessary.  Personally, I left everything installed, but suspect you can remove them without causing harm.
I do know for a fact that any install called "DS Plugin" (and also "Service Controllers" and maybe a few others) are installed by PC Suite/Ovi Suite/Nokia Suite to act as the glue between the software and the phone.  Delete any of these, and the program will reinstall them again (possibly with a prompt) the next time you connect your phone.  So these are perfectly harmless.
I don't have a PIPS Installer entry (but do have a "Pipes Upgrade"), so that one is a mystery.  Who is listed as the vendor, Nokia or somebody else?

    Wow,
    Talk about picking the hardest solution to an easy problem.  You guys were right, it wasn't driver related at all.  It simply wasn't enabled in the system BIOS.  I never imagined that it would be disabled as a default.  I conceptualized this is Plug and Play (Which was wrong).  
    Thanks for the hand.  BTW, MSI help desk was clueless about this (which was surprising).

  • Change the default country code for new contacts in Outlook 2013 for countries not listed in Control Panel Region Format

    Dear all,
    I would like to change the default country code for new Outlook 2013 contacts. My country is Mozambique (+258) and is not listed under Control Panel> Region> Formats> Format:
    Is there any place (registry maybe, anywhere) where I can manipulate the existing formats or manually add a new format to the List ??? - for example Portuguese (Mozambique).
    I am using Windows 8.1
    I have tried changing the country on the phone and modem options and nothing changes. Also changing the Home Location on Region> Location to Mozambique didn't change a thing. The only place where I change something and produces results is the
    Format List.
    Any ideias???? If not, is there a place where I can ask Microsoft to include Portuguese (Mozambique) on future windows updates???
    Kind regards,
    Osvaldo

    Hi,
    Windows uses the information set under
    'Phone and Modem'  in the Control Panel to determine the default area code.
    You can change the country/region to
    Mozambique
    and set your area code here:

  • Installed Adobe CC apps not listed in control panel, can't uninstall them.

    I have recently installed Photoshop CC 2014 and Illustrator CC 2014 but I also have Photoshop CC and Illustrator CC 32 and 64bit already installed. Now I want to uninstall the older versions and keep the 2014 ones. The problem is that these versions are no longer listed in the control panel program list and so I can't uninstall them. Only the 2014 versions are listed. I am running Windows 8.1 64bit.

    Found the answer in the forum. Use this tool: Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • Removing access to "PC Settings" Modern UI app (but allow Control Panel access)

    Hi all,
    I have just deployed Windows 8.1 Pro to a  number of machines and am having an issue with the "PC Settings" Modern UI app - this allows users to modify local users (i.e. create new local users, modify existing local users) and play with settings
    that they shouldn't be messing with! This happens even when though the "Show only specified Control Panel items" policy setting has been configured (which works correctly with the classic Control Panel).
    The only way I can get this blocked is by enabling the "Prohibit access to Control Panel and PC Settings" policy setting; however, this also blocks access to Control Panel, which is required for users to access
    keyboard, mouse and printer settings.
    Is there any way to block access to the "PC Settings" Modern UI app? (I have already removed all Modern Apps (and provisioned apps) possible by using the usual PowerShell cmdlets).
    The users need to be able to add/remove printers and modify keyboard settings (nothing else), hence minimal Control Panel functionality is essential. I need to be able to block all settings being accessed from the PC Settings Modern UI app though!
    Has anyone got any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Kim

    Hi,
    Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, AppLocker is only available in Windows 8.1 Enterprise / Ultimate. We are using Professional.

  • Certificates installed dont Show in control panel

    Why does the control panels tab not show any installed certificates? Does this only show non-root certificates? and you need a chain to show certificates?
    How does one make a chain if so??

    I think you are confusing the trusted CA list with the list
    of software signers you have explicitly chosen to trust on
    an ongoing basis (the list in PI control panel "Cert" pane).

    You can try two things. 
    I would try to download CCleaner (free)   Their utility has a tools section and it will find uninstallers for me when windows add/remove won't find them. 
    OR 
    you might have to install it again just to get the uninstaller,   then you can use the uninstaller to uninstall. 

  • I appear to have lost my itunes icon and program is not listed in control panel

    I appear to have lost my ITunes icon and the program is not listed in the Control Panel under Programs. Nobody in the house has uninstalled it but it appears an update may have come through today which was loaded and now we cant find anything.

    If it is not listed in programs&features it looks as though it has been uninstalled.
    Try looking for the iTunes application in
    C:\Program Files\iTunes for 32 bit windows
    C:\Program Files (x86) for 64 bit applications.
    Is it there?
    If it isn't try downloading iTunes and installing iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Does it install and work normally, or something else?
    If there are any error messages give them in full.

  • Has anyone installed Jan 22 iCloud Control Panel 2.1.3 for Vista?

    I'm wondering if anyone has installed this http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1687 (post date on the link is Jan 22, 2014)? If so, did you do it independent of any other Apple updates (like iTunes), and did everything work OK?
    I'm wanting to install it (in the hope that I will get bookmark sync working again between my Vista and iOS devices), but am reluctant to do so after the iTunes debacle earlier this week. As far as I can see, the iTunes update still isn't working right (I used System Restore to back out of it and am waiting to see when the coast is clear before trying again. (Yes, I did see links about manually deleting files and all that, but prefer to wait for update to be fixed)

    OK - reporting back.
    I installed with no problems and was able to open iCloud on my PC and check calendar, notes, reminders. Haven't yet checked bookmark syncing, will get to that when I can.
    (I have Vista, IE9; have backed out latest iTunes update before installing this version of iCloud Control Panel)

  • Program not listed in "Control panel Uninstall a program". Help! - Windows 7

    For some reason I cannot find the program I want to uninstall in control panel and it is really bugging me out because there is no uninstall application in the programs directory folder. Please help, Thanks :)

    Hi,
    Based on your description, the program is not correctly installed, in this case, install or repair the program again and then it should appear at the control panel, after a reinstallation or repair, you can choose manually to uninstall it again.
    If you can’t delete it from the programs directory folder, try to boot your computer in same mode to remove them, ways of booting your computer in same mode:
    1.Remove all floppy disks, CDs, and DVDs from your computer, and then restart your computer.
    2.Press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears.
    3.On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the safe mode option you want, and then press Enter. For more information about options, see Advanced startup options (including safe mode).
    4.Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.
    You can also follow this for detailed steps:

  • Enumerate Add/Remove programs list in Control Panel

    Here is a vi to read the Add/Remove programs list from the registry. My Add/remove programs list contains an item that uses a really large font (something like 98 font size). This makes it impossible to see the program name and select it for add/remove. I think I have it narrowed down to an Autocad program, but I'm not sure how to change the font size yet. This vi will list the display name in control panel, the uninstall string, and the registry subkey. Thought this might be useful for someone. It is 7.0 format.

  • How to open the JRE Control Panel from Firefox?

    I installed jdk1.5.7 and firefox and I also installed the jre plug-in in firefox. Now my firefox can display my applet now. But it still has a problem here. As we all know, in windows environment, when the applet has been loaded, a java control panel icon will display in the windows system tray area and I can open the control panel which I can monitor the output of my applet.
    My problem is how to do this in firefox environment? From where can I open the control panel window then I can monitor the output? By the way, I have opened the setting "Display the control panel" in advanced tab of jre's ControlPanel application.
