IE 11 won't install or uninstall

I have one Windows 7 64 bit machine that keeps getting offered IE 11. IE 11 is already installed on the computer. I went Installed Updates and tried to remove IE 11 and got an error message "An error has occurred. Not all of the updates were successfully
uninstalled" I then downloaded Internet Explorer 11 hoping that I could install and do a repair on it. I got the message "Setup can't continue because a more recent version of Internet Explorer is installed on the computer".
Internet Explorer does work on the machine.
I went through every forum I could find and did not find a solution. Has anyone got an idea how to fix this.

I have ran the system readiness tool and it acts like it has fixed everything but then I get the same failed results installing and uninstalling. I did look at the cbs.log and here is a section that has errors can someone tell me what is going on.

  • Mac book pro won't install or uninstall programs

    I have a mac book pro, running OSX 10.7.5.  When I try to instill Java, or any program for that matter,  it takes me to the download screen, asks me for my password and then does nothing.  Will not install.  I tried to uninstall a program as well and the same thing happens.  Won't install or uninstall.  Any ideas?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • ITunes won't install or uninstall. :(

    Howdy one and all,
    I've scoured your forums for an answer but I'm not really getting anywhere. :/
    I wanted to install iTunes 7 to help fix my ipod (which subsequently fixed itself) but this message comes up each time.
    So I removed Quicktime from the programmes folder, then iTunes refused to work. I also removed the iTunes folder.
    Then i tried to install Quicktime by itself, and that won't install either.
    I keep going into control panel and there are 2 ipods and 2 itunes, and none of them will uninstall for me, they just blink and then stay there.
    I've checked my task manager, and there is no ipod services running.
    Does anyone have a notion as to what is going on?
    Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!!

    Very strange.
    Ok you might want to clean out your temp folder before running the install. Then reboot and try to clean the rest in there.
    Here is a more detail instruction for cleaning the temp:
    Clean out your temp folders, Delete as much as you can in these folders except for the folders Cookies, History, Temporary Internet Files.
    a. C:\windows\temp (if one exists)
    b. C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Local Settings\Temp
    Sometimes installers will pick up old files or won’t delete their temporary files.
    Make sure you have the latest MSI engine.

    Even though you shouldn't have to the VB script installer is here.

  • Updated and now the ipod communication software won't install or uninstall

    After updating to the newest itunes (biggest mistake ever) the ipod communication files cannot be installed or uninstalled. I keep getting the same error message despite countless attempts to fix the install, uninstall and reinstall, install manually...
    itunes does not recognize my ipods when they are plugged in, and I've now gone over a week without being able to sync them...completely worthless!

    Not sure what exactly you did; your description is a bit confusing. What I suggest you do (assuming you want the English version for Windows)
    *Download the installer from http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe (or from http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US_Std.exe if you don't want Adobe AIR and Acrobat.com)
    *Download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
    *Run the utility and remove any Adobe Reader references
    *Run the Adobe Reader installer

  • Firefox won't install after uninstall

    Hey all,
    I just bought a new 2012 rMBP and a local authorized computer repair shop transfered over my data from my old laptop, which was a macbook as well. The only reason i had them do it is because my old laptop was subject to severe water damage, and I had no way to access the HDD
    Anyway, he transfered over my apps, files, and everything. Firefox was transfered over as well. I uninstalled firefox by dragging it from the applications menu to the trash, and then downloaded the current copy (the one that was installed on my old laptop was 6 releases behind). I go to install the newly downloaded copy and it tells me there is already a firefox installed, and i can replace, leave it alone, or stop. If I pick "replace" it gives me a message of:
    "The operation can’t be completed because some items had to be skipped. For each item, choose File > Get Info, make sure “Locked” is deselected, and then check the Sharing & Permissions section. When you are sure the items are unlocked and not designated as Read Only or No Access, try again."
    I've searched for firefox files and there are none.
    Where do I go from here?

    Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to the state it’s in now.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    sudo chflags -R 0 /Applications/Firefox.app
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
    Try the installation again. If it works, you can quit Terminal.

    </script>
    I start by running "fp_6.0.65_activex.exe" to generate
    "Flash.ocx", and copy "Flash.ocx" into
    "C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash".
    When I test with expressinstall.html, it shows that FP6 is
    the current player and I get the Flash 9 updater prompt that goes
    to ""
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/update/current/swf/autoUpdater.swf"
    when I click yes.
    So all is fine up to that point.
    But when I get redirected to the Adobe Flash Player install
    page the Flash movie that's supposed to run during the installation
    doesn't appear, and so it never reports that the installation was
    complete. The page simply loads without the install movie and
    reports "Done" in the lower left corner. It never goes back to
    index.php and reloads my flash movie (the way Firefox does).
    In addition, the Adobe install page copies the following
    files into "C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash"
    "Flash9c.ocx", "FlashUtil9c.exe", "install.log",
    "uninstall_activeX.exe". These appear to be the correct files. The
    installation also leaves behind "Flash.ocx" which is from the
    version 6.0.65 installation.
    If I run expressinstall.html again it reports that there is
    no Flash Player installed.
    I've also removed this folder from the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayer\SafeVersions.
    (As per TechNote 4da116d3)

    Has anyone else run into this?

    Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to the state it’s in now.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    sudo chflags -R 0 /Applications/Firefox.app
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
    Try the installation again. If it works, you can quit Terminal.

  • Application Won't Install or Uninstall

    This concerns a photo viewing program, Nikon View NX, latest version 1.1.0, but I'm wondering if the problem is with the OS.
    I had View NX 1.1.0 installed yesterday but it was running terribly, not responding to mouse clicks, running slow, triggering commands that I had not clicked, so I tried to uninstall it. The uninstaller would not operate: it kept quitting each time I would click on it. This seems to be a common issue with this program that the uninstaller will not open.
    So I simply dragged the View NX folder to the trash and deleted it.
    I then tried to reinstall a new download of View NX 1.1.0, but the installer will not install it. Each time I click on the .dmg file and then click on the install file, it asks for password, I put that in (I actually don't use a password so it's left blank) and then click okay, and the VISE X installer then QUITS without further ado.
    I successfully re-installed an old copy of View NX 1.0 today but now it will not uninstall either. Uninstaller keeps quitting suddenly when I click on the uninstall button. However, this older version of the app. appears to be working okay.
    I have "repaired permissions," restarted the computer, re-downloaded the new 1.1.0 version a couple of times, etc.
    Nothing works.
    Is this a VISE X problem or what? Any help would be appreciated.

    Are you running OS X 10.3.9 or later? That is a system requirement for the software according to Nikon.
    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Most applications create preference files which are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can located them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.
    There are also several shareware utilities that can uninstall applications:
    AppZapper
    CleanApp
    Yank
    SuperPop
    Uninstaller
    Spring Cleaning
    Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

  • Quictime won't install or uninstall HELP i need my music

    Okay so I've trawled the internet looking for a solution and I have ended up here, here it goes.
    My iTunes would not open and a window appeared every time I tried saying 'iTunes has stopped working windows has closed the programme to prevent damage to your computer' so after various fiddling I decided to uninstall iTunes completely and to start fresh so i uninstall iTunes no problem but quicktime was it so willing to leave every time i try to uninstall, repair or open it it appear with a window saying 'QuickTimePlayer.Resources' is not a valid short file name , not knowing the technincal lingo this was jibberish to me. so ignoring this i attempted to install itunes and it was fine until two thirds of the way in a window appears saying an unexpected error has occured error code:2869 so i click ok another window appears'the installation od quictime did not complete successfully.iTunes requires Quictime.' once again i click ok, now i have come to the conclusion Quictime is my problem however where do i go from here?
    PLEASE HELP! i have been without wokring iTunes for 2 weeks! and therefore cant sync my itouch please please please help!

    'QuickTimePlayer.Resources' is not a valid short file name, this would seem to indicate something in QT was moved around maybe to a different drive, whatever?
    I'm not familiar with Vista but based on the error code:2869, Microsoft indicates it's do to permissions.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/962243
    So it appears that the first thing that needs to be done is get user accounts straitened out, or else your probably not going to get QT to uninstall or install

  • FCS 2 won't install after uninstalling FCS 3

    Hi
    I had FCS 3 but needed to downgrade back to 2 for a project. I did a complete uninstall using the FCS Remover and have check the receipts folder and all other folders from every google search alive The computer is clean of all Final Cut files but when I put the disc in to install, Final Cut and some other program are greyed out and display a skip and will not install. Anyone have this issue or know what to do? I've tried everything.
    Thanks!

    When my friend Erin upgraded from 5 to 6, she only upgraded FCP, not all of FCStudio, and when she went from 6 to 7 she again only installed FCP, not all of FCstudio.
    This is a very bad way to do it. Final Cut Studio is dependent upon many different shared files and frameworks, and is very fussy about QuickTime versions. Consequently, it is important to keep all of the application versions in sync with each other or you will experience problems.
    krgarty wrote:
    So when she used FCS remover she only selected to uninstall FCP. Now, when she tries to reinstall 6, FCP as an option is still greyed out. Do you think the problem is rooted in the fact that she didn't do a clean uninstall of everything- are there secret '7' files attached to other software even though she choose not to upgrade them? Just a thought. Thanks
    I would recommend that she choose everything, not just FCP. It's likely that some files in the Shared Files section were preventing it from being reinstalled, but she'd be much better off just removing everything and then reinstalling all components of FCS 3.

  • ITunes 8.1 won't install on Vista after uninstall

    So I was trying to update my itunes and kept getting errors. I went on to uninstall it and reinstall which normally works. But this time around, I got some error messages and it won't install.
    When it is installing, I get this message:
    "An error occurred while attempting to create the directory: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\SyncServices\Schemas\iCal.syncshema\Contents\Resources\da.lproj"
    I select retry in the window and it still doesn't work so I press cancel. Then it continues and terminates the install with this message:
    "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2330."
    It then proceeded to install quicktime with no problems so I'm quite puzzled on what I can do here. I just want to listen to music and my podcasts! If anyone can help me on this it would be greatly appreciated. I've looked through the forum and support things so I need some more guidance.
    Thanks,
    Peter

  • ITunes download said I needed to uninstall first. Followed instructions on how to uninstall. Everything worked except for iTunes itself and it won't uninstall but won't install either. Help!

    I followed the instructions for the uninstall as found on the website, but all of the software except for iTunes uninstalled successfully. Now it won't uninstall and the updated version won't instal either and I have no idea what to do. I'm very frustrated at this point as I've tried everything on the support website.

    Perfect, thanks.
    "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2330."
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?
