I keep getting Object already exists when loading Adobe. How do I get rid of it and load Adobe Reader

How do I get rid of i t and get Adobe Reader again.

Windows update KB2918614 to the Windows Installer Service has caused similar issues with other software.  You might want to try removing that update (it will have been installed near the time you began having this problem).  Then reboot and try again to install the Adobe application.

  • Getting "object already exists" message when trying to install new software.

    Quite coincidentally, I came across a solution for the "object already exists" message that had recently been interferring with the downloading of new software.  This solution was offered by another on a different website, but it has solved my problem.
    My operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate.  
    The Windows Security Update  KB2918614 seems to be wreaking havoc with some systems.  It did so with mine.
    After removing this particular update, I am now able to install software (was actually just trying to reinstall my HP printer software as I am having another issue with it).
    Don't know if this will help anyone else, but it worked for me.

    To rid myself of the "object already exists" issues due to the Windows Security Update KB2918614 . . . I have learned that an additional step must be taken to keep Windows Updates from automatically reinstalling this update . . . once again, preventing installation of software.
    One needs to hide the update to prevent Window Updater from reinstalling.
    Taken from the Windows community:
    Marilyn - Support Engineer replied on December 9, 2008
    The update in question can be hidden, which will prevent this update from downloading and installing.
    To hide this update:
           Open Control Panel
           Open Security
           Select ‘Windows Update
           Select the option View Available Updates in the upper left hand corner
           Locate the update in question, right click and select ‘Hide Update’
    Thanks
    Once again, my operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate and this particular update was causing difficulty for my specific operating system.

  • Getting Object already exist error when installing adobe reader

    I'm unable to install any Adobe application programs on my Windows 7 machine.  I tried Adobe Reader XI, Lightroom 5.6, Photoshop CC, etc.  All resulted with "Object Already Exist" error.  I searched on Adobe site for fix, and there was one to delete Crypto file.  However, this resulted with the same error.  How can I install Adobe Reader?

    Your approach is correct in identifying the error.  I used ProcMon from Sysinternals (now Microsoft) and came up with the following events leading up to "Object already exists" error.  The error occurs after opening C:\Users\%account%\AppData\Crypto\RSA\S-1-5-....... file.  If the Crypto directory is missing, MSIEXEC.EXE will create along with RSA subdirectory and file name starting with S-1-5.....  There were five NAME NOT FOUND events, and their sequence is
         Windows Installer Logging item in HKLM\SOFTWARE registry
         C:\Users\%account%\AppData\Local\Temp\MSI7058d.LOG (this file was created at the next step)
         Windows Installer Debug item in HKLM\SOFTWARE registry
         FontSubstitution in HKLM\SOFTWARE registry
         CTF Known Classes item in HKLM|SOFTWARE registry
    I don't know which one causing the error, but my suspicion is the last one. But I don't know how to fix it.  Is there anyone who can give me insight to what is happening and how to fix it?

  • How do I configure DW to open and load a file?

    I have DreamWeaver CS5 running on a Mac. Whenever I double-click to open a DreamWeaver compatible file (such as an HTML file), if DW is not already open, DW launches but does not load the file. Once DW is launced, I can double-click the file and it will load. How do I configure DW to open and load a file together?
    DW: v11 b 4993
    OS X: 10.7.4 (11E53)

    HTML files are normally configured to open in a browser. The default on a Mac is to open the file in Safari.
    You can right-click the filename in the Mac Finder, and select Open With > Dreamweaver CS5 from the context menu.
    Alternatively, select an HTML file in Mac Finder, and press Cmd+I to open the Info panel. In the Open With section, select Dreamweaver CS5 as the default program, and click the Change All button.

  • When I try to install Lightroom 5.6 I get a "Object already exists" message. I can't install it at all

    I updated Lightroom to 5.6 before going away for the weekend. When I came home I was unable to access lighroom all together. After searching I finally found how to chat with customer service (which I can't figure out again) and they told me to uninstall Lightroom, make a new Admin on my computer, and re-install it on the new Admin. When I did this I still get the same "Object already exists" message and it won't even install now.

    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * Delete the files and folders in the %temp% folder.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • I'm getting an 'objects already exist' error when trying to download itunes

    My iPhone 6 wouldn't connect to iTunes since it need to update. So I went to uninstall iTunes and all it's contents. I went to download iTunes again, but when I did I received an 'Object already exists' error. I went to look at more information on the Apple website and I tried everything I could but I keep receiving the error. I uninstalled anything related to Apple on my computer and I went to the Program Files folder on my computer and found nothing related to Apple so I'm pretty sure I deleted all the data already. I really need help with this. I have a Windows 7 computer.

    For "Object already exists" or "Access denied" errors when installing try opening Control Panel > Programs and Features > View installed updates then checking for Security Update for Microsoft Windows (KB2918614). Uninstall if you have it, then reboot and try installing again.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

    Hi Bev,
    Thanks for the the email - I understand now.
    I would just like to ask another question with regards to my new order for complete Creative Cloud which you suggested. I have now pre-paid for a full year but I’m not
    sure when I can start downloading the other APPS as they don’t seem to be updating on my current Creative Cloud account app display. It still shows my old configuration
    of products (i.e. Photoshop etc) and my ‘activity stream’ relates back to 9 days ago.
    Please let me know how to get my new order activated.
    Thanks

    If your program is Photoshop Elements 12, then you have posted in the wrong forum. Your thread is now in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
    Please re-post your question in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.

    While you are making your move, consider
    a. what computer operating system is involved...if we assume Windows
    b. have you checked Control Panel/Programs to assure that the program is no longer listed as an installed program?
    If it is no longer installed, you might want to consider a free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) to get
    rid of any leftovers from incomplete installs and uninstalls. Then reinstall with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.

  • Can't reinstall itunes on windows 7 comp. Get error message "object already exists"

    Difficulty reinstalling itunes on Windows7 machine. Despite uninstalling everything apple, I constantly get error message: "object already exists" and the install fails. I have gone through hard drive but can't find anything itunes or apple. Uninstalled everything apple in control panel. What am I missing?

    Try opening Control Panel > Programs and Features > View installed updates then checking for the Security Update for Microsoft Windows (KB2918614). , Uninstall if you have it, then reboot.
    There is a strong hint here that it should resolve this issue, although personally I have that update installed and have been able to remove and reinstall iTunes without any problem.
    Click for more on KB2918614 which is an update to the Windows Installer Service released July 12th 2014. The timing and nature of the update suggest a connection with the "Object already exists" issue which affects other installations as well as iTunes.

    The computer is Windows 7 Professional 64-bit edition version 6.1 Build 7601 service pack 1. The computer is not in a domain environment. I believe this may be a security issue however I completed an in-place windows 7 upgrade to try and fix the problem

    I found a semi-related webpage that at least lists the same Microsoft-Windows-TerminalServices-RemoteConnectionManager and 1057. However I'm running Windows 7 64-bit edition and I seriously doubt I have a lack of available memory issue.

    The relevant status code says that the "Object already exists" which I think is far more relevant then some memory issue. Do I have to delete some file or registry entry? Or is it a security issue?
    Google search have come up with nothing. Any suggestions would be very helpful!

    Have a solution for you:

    Change server FQDN with real value.
    Go to computer certificates and under remote desktop delete current certificate. Then from personal store move the newly created cert to Remote Desktop.  Open the cert and copy Thumbprint.
    Open regedit and go to:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations
    Update SelfSignedCertificate key with new cert tumbprint.
