Cannot Uninstall X-FI driv

this Started a Few weeks ago, since my creative console launcher stopped working. i try to uninstall the sound card in the add/ remove programs, but it simply crashes when i click remove on it. it says it has encountered a problem and cannot recover as soon i as click it. is there any way to manually uninstall the sound card and software?

My suggestion would to go on-line and get DriverCleanerPro and it wil help you rid yourself of unwanted drivers... apparently it is one of the only things that will rid you of some of that stuff but if the other suggestion worked then good I might write it down or print it for myself :smileyvery-happy:?

Cannot uninstall Optia Pro driver

Suddenly, my optia pro stopped working. So I tried a reinstall:
Runnning Vista SP2
I can uninstall everything except the driver. In Programs/Features nothing happens - the icon is blank btw. Uninstalling via device manager makes no difference.
If I try a reinstall, I get the following:
The existing or installed driver is the same or newer than the source driver. The installed driver version is 1.03.03.00. Do you still want to proceed with the driver setup?
Click OK
An error encountered during installation. Do you still want to proceed to install?
Click Yes
Setup complete - restart for changes to take effect
Vista device driver driver window shows one optia pro failed and a second Ready to use
And the story remains the same - zip. I do however get the microphone working.
If anyone can help here, please let me know. I've tried all sorts so far and with no success. Somehow, there is a driver hanging around somewhere.

My parents have been having problems with their new Live Cam Optia pro HD where by everytime they used it the avatar of the cat was launched even if it was turned off. So I set about uninstalling everything.. only to find like the guys above that the drivers fail to uninstall either through the control panel, via a creative upgrade or by downloading new drivers and letting them do the uninstall.
Device manager reports the camera there but no drivers installed. The software when running says no camera connected. But when you try to do a reinstall or uninstall the system reports it cant do it.
Help!!! We now have an expensive webcam that doesnt work!

Cannot uninstall cs6 bad hard drive, any suggestions?

Cannot uninstall cs6 bad hard drive, any suggestions?
THank you

Thank you for the Adobe contact. They connected me to the chat link and the Adobe tech Support rep sent me a License Recovery download link (attached) http://download.macromedia.com/pub/support/tools/LicenseRecovery111.dmg.
I have 10.10.1 Yosemite. When I open the download folder and click on the LicenseRecovery.app it shows up on the dock but it nothing happens. I cannot quit the app only Force Quit. I have restarted the mac and that did't help.
Adobe chat suggested I uninstall CS5.5/6 and re-install but why would that have anything to do with the app opening?
Any suggestion is greatly appreciated, again.
Thank you

Had a hard drive crash - iTunes folder is compromised. I cannot uninstall what's left or update from 11.0.1.12 - message is it can't locate iTunes64.msi HELP!!!

Problem locating iTunes64.msi on Windows 7 64-bit machine. Can anyone help me?????
Last version worked fine until hard drive crashed. Have tried a clean boot - nothing, same problem. I've deleted temp files, nothing. Saw another comment that Apple Support genius provided files needed for version they had problem with - once received, they coulld remove (uninstall) old version and update to current version. I only wish it will be that easy.

There is no numerical error number, only a message which I'm including below. The file iTunes64.msi is not on my computer - so I cannot uninstall the old version noted above - or update it. There are 189 files left in the folder that appears in the Control Panel. I cannot uninstall, change or repair it - nor can I remove the folder from the Control Panel. I believe I've already deleted the folders shown in my program listing - which probably eliminated all my music.
The hard drive crash has caused several programs to fail such as this, I'm just trying to get my laptop operational with the software or apps I had used previously.
"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.
c:\Users\PHayes10\AppData\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update\"
Looks like I'm not the only one with the same problem. One person indicated you folks helped him solve the same issue - I'm hoping you can assist me as well.

Cannot install driver, cannot update driver, cannot uninstall device

Dcannot install driver, cannot update driver, cannot uninstall device7 SB Audigy4 24 bit
Hi,
I have read the faq & tried numerous time all suggested steps, to no avail
In device mgr, I am unable to uninstall the device, services.exe goes to 50-80% cpu usage for hours & hours, without ever uninstalling my SB
If on the other hand, I try to install with one of the recommended driver, it invariably tells that it need to uninstall a previous driver, then it stays at the uninstall full sreen for hours. Oddly enough, device mgr gives me a code 8 (no driver installed)
I need to nuke whatever's left of the driver, something ctzapxx.exe has not been able to help me do so far
I have spent the better part of the last 3 days trying to get this fixed, you guys are my last hope before I reformat
Tks in advance

Thank you for the information, Harry. If you are installing from the HP CD which came with you then let us check with downloading the All-in-One software from the hp website and then check for the result.
First of all you need to uninstall the software which was already installed on your Vista computer , then we need to download the software and install the All-in-One software.
Here are the uninstallation steps to uninstall the software from the computer:
To completely uninstall the software, run the uninstaller at level three using these steps:
1. Turn the All-in-One off and disconnect any USB/Ethernet cable from All-in-One to computer.
2. Insert the all-in-one CD-ROM into the computer. Cancel any installation windows that appear.
3. Click Start on the taskbar and then click Run.
4. In the command box type the following command and press Enter key:
X:\Util\CCC\Uninstall_L3.bat
(X: is the CD-ROM drive letter of that the all-in-one CD-ROM is in)
Follow the above steps to uninstall the All-in-One software and then restart the computer .
Then download the software from the below web link:
full feature software in vista
Click on the above link and open the web page,after you open the above link click on download only button and save the file onto your desktop.
Here are the instructions to install the All-in-One software:
1) Unplug the USB cable from the back of the computer
2) Install HP Software using downloaded file => Double click on downloaded file => Choose Run and follow the onscreen instructions
3) Before starting the installation disable the antivirus and firewall and then proceed with the installation.
4) Plug in the USB cable when it prompts to connect in the midway of installation
Note : It is important that you connect the USB cable only when the software prompts you while you are installing the software.
Once you install the All-in-One software check for the result and let us know.

Installed incorrect coreAudio driver and cannot uninstall

I've done something very stupid... I was misinformed by a friend and installed COREaudio driver v8.03 on my 2.9GHZ macbook pro with 10.8.2 Mountain Lion. I installed COREaudio v8.03 and now Ableton live does not pick up midi signals and every time I open Ableton, I get a message telling me that "Required software extensions are missing" and clicking ok redirects me to an anti piracy website called www.paceap.com but from what I've read, Pace is essentially a nasty piece of malware disguised as anti piracy software and I have no desire to install this.
The obvious soloution would be just to uninstall the COREaudio driver, but I can't figure out how. There is no uninstaller and the audio folder in library which should contain the COREaudio files is empty with the exception of a folder named 'Digidesign' but my mac won't let me delete it as it is a required file.
Any help as to how to either uninstall this version, revert back to the built in COREaudio driver that came with my mac or even a different driver that would work would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I have no way of knowing what you did, but you can either restore from the backup you made before wrecking your system, or do a clean reinstallation of OS X.
Back up all data to at least two different storage devices, if you haven't already done so. The backups can be made with Time Machine or with a mirroring tool such as Carbon Copy Cloner. Preferably both.
Boot into Recovery (command-R at startup), launch Disk Utility, and erase the startup volume with the default options.This operation will destroy all data on the volume, so you had be better be sure of your backups. Quit Disk Utility and install OS X. When you reboot, you'll be prompted to go through the initial setup process. That’s when you transfer the data from one of your backups. For details of how this works, see here:
Using Setup Assistant
Transfer only "Users" and "Settings" – not "Applications" or "Other files." Don't transfer the Guest account, if it was enabled on the old system.
Reinstall your third-party software cautiously. Self-contained applications that install into the Applications folder by drag-and-drop or download from the App Store are safe. Anything that comes packaged as an installer or that prompts for an administrator password is suspect, and you must test thoroughly after reinstalling each such item to make sure you haven't restored the problem.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with networks that require any kind of authentication other than a WPA or WPA2 Personal password.

Cannot load a FAx driver for a Hp Laserjet 1536dnf MFP on a HP Pavilion Elite e9220y Computer

I cannot find a fax driver for this printer to install on my computer.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer a couple of times It will print and scan but not fax.
I reinstalled fron the orignal disk and off the HP website neither get me fax capablilites.
I have gone to support and cannot find the drive on eith er the printer or computers web page at HP.Com
Please let me know what to do.

Hi @thesaneone4 ,
I see that you are experiencing issues with the fax driver not installing. I would be happy to help you.
Check the connections in the Device Manager for any printer entries, under Universal Serial Bus Controllers look for Fax LEDM or any unknown devices. Right click and try to update the driver. How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
In the Devices and Printers window, what icons do you have for the printer showing?
If you are still having issues, you will need to uninstall the printer software from the CD and unlock the hidden Admin Account when installing the printer software, to make sure there isn't any interference.
Disconnect the USB cable.
Uninstall the software by going to Start, Computer, right click on the CD and open it, then double click on uninstall.
Then download and run the latest software. HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf Multifunction Printer.
Unlock Hidden Administrator Account and install the printer on this account:
Go to your Start menu and under the 'search programs and files' box type CMD.
CMD will populate as a search option above, just right click on it and 'run as administrator'.
Once CMD (Command Prompt) opens, type net user administrator /active:yes and hit enter.
Next, close CMD and restart your computer.
When your computer comes on log into the new account that should show. It will be called Administrator and will not have a password on it.
If your computer automatically logs into your account after restart than go to your start menu click the arrow beside 'shutdown' and choose 'switch user'. Now log into the Administrator account we just unlocked.
Under the Administrator account, install the printer software.
Test the printer.
To turn off the Admin account start back at step 1 and type in net user administrator /active:no.
Please let me know the outcome.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Cannot see see host drives, Win 7 guest on Virtual PC Win 7 host

I have Virtual PC running on Windows 7 Enterprise with a Win 7 guest OS and integration features enabled (all drives are selected), as per instructions here:
http : / / technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee449412(v=ws.10).aspx
However after restarting the VM it still does not work, I cannot see the host drives in the VM. How can I get this to work?

Here's a link to a thread about the same problem. There seems to be a couple of fixes, and one is to uninstall an RDP update (KB2592687), and another is a list of 8 steps that seems to resolve the issue. I'd suggest trying the
8 steps first because then you'll have all the updates and a working VM if it works.

And the eight steps from
Holmp_
I was able to get it working:
Go to Settings for the Windows XP Mode VM.
Integration Settings
Uncheck Drives.
Login to the VM and Shut Down the Guest OS.
Boot it back up and login.
Recheck Drives in Integration Settings.
Shut Down the Guest OS again.
Boot it back up and it should be working.
Hope this helps.

Cannot uninstall VMware Server 1.0. from Windows 7

[pictures attached]
I tried to install VMware Server 1.0.10, but got this message:
Windows requires a digitally signed driver
A recently installed program tried to install an unsigned driver.
This version of Windows requires all drivers to have a valid digital signature.
The driver is unavailable and the program that uses this driver might not work correctly.
Uninstall the program or device that uses this driver and check the
publisher's support website to get a digitally signed driver.
Driver: VMware bridge driver (64-bit)
Service: VMware Bridge Protocol
PROBLEM: cannot uninstall VMware Server
QUESTION: how can I manually uninstall VMware Server from my Windows 7?
Thanks in advance.

If you're being flooded with this (literally every second) in /var/log/messages I would recommend applying patch 5679560 (if you have access to metalink):

Oct 16 11:05:06 vmerin su(pam_unix)[8768]: session opened for user oracle by (uid=0)
This will reduce the load significantly.

Windows Vista - Cannot Uninstall

I cannot uninstall 7.6 from my 64 Bit Windows Vista computer. I can not upgrade either. What could be the problem?

I am running Vista 64 bit. I installed the 64 bit vista version of iTunes...when the installation was finished, it said something along the lines of "iTunes was installed, but encounterred errors. iTunes might not work properly." (Not the exact message, but it was something like that). Now when I open iTunes, I get a message saying exactly "WARNING! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for imp and bruning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes".
Now, this message is different from the one I use to get. I follow the guide on iTunes support, the one going into the registry and modifying one to change something with a CD burner...it didn't fix it so I just restored the original state of the registry. I'm not worried about burning CDs, but my iTunes also doesn't support iPhone or iPod Touch (I have both). When I plug it in, it says that the mobile driver is missing please reinstall iTunes.
NOW FOR THE REAL PROBLEM:
I go to my Uninstall or Change a Program. I click uninstall iTunes. Preparing to remove...Gathering require information...Won't do anything after that. So then I go to apple's website and download the latest 64 vista bit version. I run the installer. Click next. I aaccept. Install it in it's same directory...the one that it is currently installed in. It then starts installing. Updating...copying new files..then. ROLLING BACK ACTION?
Now for the big thing:
"iTunes Installer Completed
The installer ecountered errors before iTunes could be configured.
To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again.
Click Finish to exit the installer.
Can't get it to uninstall. Can't get it to install. Please help!

Re: Satellite P870 - Cannot install Intel display driver

Hi,
I have tried from both Intel and from Toshiba and cannot install the Intel driver.
Without the Intel driver I cannot install the Nvidia driver, I have tried downloading the Intel utility installer from Toshiba as well as the Intel HD 4000 driver.
I do not want to do a system recovery. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks the model number is P 870 02k00s
It came with Windows home 7 64 bit pre installed. I upgraded to to Pro for work.
It was working good until last week where someothing made the intel driver start showing it had a fault at this point i uninstalled the driver hoping it would reinstall and i could go on my merry way.
After this point i tried downloading the driver packs from both toshiba support and intell but both dont work.
Currently the intell display adapter is listed as video controller (VGA compatible).
The NIVDIA driver staes i need to install the intel first

Cannot Uninstall Creative MediaSource from System (Audigy 2 card from De

Cannot uninstall MediaSource software from XP system, get message (in control panel>add/remove programs): "An Installation Support File Could Not Be Installed. The system cannot find the file specified." Have tried re-installing the software, but to no avail.
Also, not sure if this is worth mentioning, but the Audigy 2 card (and software) that I have came with my Dell system.
phb

I am getting the exact same error when I try to remove Creative MediaSource and Creative System Information from XP Add/Remove Programs ...
I am using an Audigy 2 ZS (retail) and have installed the updated drivers, yet I get the message that I cannot uninstall prior versions because of 'missing files'.
Updating the drivers and software SHOULD remove any prior installations. However, as a programmer, I understand how difficult it is to plan for every contingency.
It would be nice to be able to totally remove all vestiges of the software and driver before installing new drivers.
Redundant out-of-date software leads to more memory leaks than poor programming.

Satellite Pro 6000: Cannot find correct WLAN driver

Hi,
I have re-installed Windows Xp on my notebook Satellite Pro 6000. All is working except for the wireless connectivity.
When looking in the device manager, I see that the WLAN driver has not (or incorrectly) been installed.
So looked at the Toshiba site for the corresponding drivers, but I am not able to find the correct one. I did found some drivers, which seems to be the one, but unfortunately after installing the drivers, the wireless connectivity is still not available.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards, Robert

Hi
I dont believe that you cannot install the Wlan driver.
Go to the device manger and find out which Wlan card was installed. (check properties)
If the WLan card is placed under network adapters so the driver was installed properly.
But if you see a unknown device in device manager so you need the WLan driver.
Then download the WLan driver from the Toshiba site. Be sure that you use the right driver for the right OS!
You can try firstly to uninstall the old driver and then to install the new one.

Extension Manager CS6 hangs on "Loading Extensions" and I cannot uninstall it.

Hello,
I've been having trouble with extension manager cs6 for about two days now, trying to apply patches to it to make it run more smoothly and stop hanging on "Loading Extensions". I have looked through these forums and they suggested that I remove all mxi files from a subfolder called "EM Store", but I cannot find a EM store under the proper location. I also cannot uninstall extension manager from my control panel, as it does not show up. I am just trying to get keyframe caddy for Adobe Flash, but I cannot get it without extension manager which is a giant pain. I've seen other people post both of their log files, but I think that just makes these forums impossible to find any real answers, as the majority of it is the log file. Please help asap, as I need this project that I am doing to be done fairly quickly.
Short story:
1. Manager hangs at "Loading Extensions"
2. Tried patching with updates, did not work
3. Tried finding the two subfolders, cannot find them at all in proper location
4. Cannot uninstall it from control panel
5. Need Help asap

You should delete EM Store and Database, then try again, you can find these folders under following path:
Current Machine's Extension Manager CS6 folder: C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6, under this path you should remove "EM Store", "Mxi Flag" and "Configuration" folder.
Current user's Extension Manager CS6 folder: C:\Users\<your_user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6, under this path you should remove "EM Store", "Mxi Flag" and "Configuration" folder.
For the 'AppData' is a hidden folder, you could follow this guider (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/show-hidden-files-in-windows-7/) to unhidden it
