Can't unistall Adobe CS3 in Windows XP after deactivation

Adobe CS3 no longer shows in Windows XP Uninstall Program list after I deactivated it. Suggestions?

The program is not uninstalled--I can see all the files still on the hard disk--but it no longer shows up as a option in the Add/Remove Programs utility. The instructions with CS Cleaner tool say to uninstall before running the toll, but as this is not an option, I am about to use the cleaner tool.

    can open any adobe product on windows 8. its always says cannot use this product under a guest account... this is the licence version of adobe cc master collection. also i did use the product past few months without any issue...

    Older trial versions are said to be found at the following sites:

  • Can't Install Adobe Air on Windows XP SP3

    Every time I attempt to Run the AbodeAIRInstaller, it gives me an error, saying that it has encountered a problem and needs to close.
    I have SP3, and am the administrator since this is the only account on the computer.
    I'm not sure if there's anything I need to do prior to downloading this. This is the first time I've attempted to download AIR. I have all other free products but this one.
    Performed all the troubleshooting steps like Uninstalling through Windows Installer Clean Up Utility , again getting the same error on installing.
    When I right-clicked the installer for Adobe AIR, I noticed there was an "unblock" option at the bottom that most newly downloaded i
    tems have to "protect" your computer. After clicking unblock, I can't even "run" the program. As soon as I double-click the installe
    r, it gives the Windows Error (crash) saying that the program needs to close and I can Send or Don't Send the error report. Before u
    nblocking, I was able to actually press "Run" or "Cancel".
    I have absolutely no idea why I can't install Adobe Air, of all programs... If there's a possible conflicting program, or if I need
    to have all current Windows updates (I haven't updated in a long time, but it's all security things, so I don't think that matters),
    or if I need the Flex program for you to troubleshoot, I'll do it. This whole thing is just really frustrating me.

    I hear ya. that's on an existing system with an upgrade. i've solved (well, resolved) a remote desktop problem with a rollback to sp2.
    but on the clean xp pro sp3 system (1st app install after anti-virus and firewall), the cs3 install took about 10 minutes. very fast very smooth.

  • Unable to lunch Adobe CS3 on Windows 7

    I just purchased a new desktop with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I installed Adobe CS3, everything worked just fine but it doesn't lunch for some reason.
    When I lunch Photoshop the window pops but that's it, when I lunch Dreamwever nothing happens and after a while an error regarding licensing appears.
    Does anybody know how can I fix this? I REALLY need the CS3 as soon as possible.
    Thanks!

    Hi Bob,
    Thanks for the advice you have provided on this forum.  I kept getting a "component install error" for 9 of the programs in my CS3 Master collection.  I don't remember the exact ones.  But it is odd -- when I first switched over to Win7, the install was flawless.  The second time, not so much.
    I went through the forum and tried as many of the solutions as I could (when it got to making registry changes, I hesitated b/c I didn't want to lock my computer up).
    Part of me wonders if there was a Win7 update since the release (of Win7) that began to interfere with the CS3 installation.  I am tempted to reboot my computer again and install CS3 before allowing windows update to add all of the new security pieces.  It was such a pain to fix the computer this 2nd time and I would love to not have to do it again.
    Thoughts?

  • Can I install Adobe CS3, and upgrade all the way through to CS5.5 on Lion?

    Hi,
    I have registered Adobe Suite products since CS3 (DVDs) and been incrementally upgrading to CS5.5 on my Macbook Pro late 2008.
    I recently bought a Mac Mini Server and I was wondering if I will be able to install my Adobe CS3 (imaged disks or external super drive) then run all my upgrades (see below) all the way through CS5.5 without any issues.
    1) Master Collection CS3 DVDs
    2) Design Premium CS4 DVDs
    3) Design Premium CS5 Download
    4) Design Premium CS5.5 Download
    I have read somewhere that I could perhaps skip the 2 older CSx, and instead, just install my CS5 from download and enter the earlier serial numbers (CS3 + CS4) requested. But until I receive the Mac Mini with Lion, I cannot try this and confirm if this actually works.
    Has anyone performed a similar installation on their Lion OS?
    Thank you.

  • Can't install Photoshop CS3 on Windows XP SP3

    Hello, I recently have reformated my machine and installed XP SP3
    sadly now, I can't install Photoshop CS3, when I double-click on Setup.exe, it show me a small bar/dialog which tells me it's extracting files, but after that, NOTHING HAPPENS
    I left it for an hour, and again, nothing happens. I checked my Task Manager and I found that Setup.exe and Msiexec.exe are running but with completely 0% of system resource.
    I tried everything possible, nothing worked for me, I really need Photoshop CS3 for my work.
    thanks advance

  • 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.

  • Can I use Adobe premier in windows 7 32 bit

    Just bought CS6 master collection Windows Netherlands. Unfortunately Premiere is uninstallable because I have 32 bit.
    Is there another way to install an earlier version of Premiere?

    Welcome to the forum.
    I am not sure that I understand the question.
    Premiere Pro (part of Production Premium & Master Collection) has been a 64-bit program, ONLY, since CS 5.
    Earlier (CS 5 and 5.5), PrPro CS 4 (still 32-bit) WAS included in both the Production Premium & Master Collection, but I do not know if it was, in CS 6. That might well depend on the delivery method, i.e. download vs physical media.
    Now, does your question involve Adobe Premiere Elements, as that is a different program, but is the forum, to which you posted. If this is purely a PrPro question, then we can Move it to that program's forum.
    Just let us know please,
    Hunt

    Yes, Droplets won't work, but as far as I can tell everythng else does.
    I have a couple of friends still using CS3 in Lion. They complain about a couple of things now and then, but still seem to be very productive with it although all saving up for CS6. I have CS4 and CS5 (will probable get rid of CS4 soon) and they have absolutely no issues.
