Installer has disappeared or has stoped working

For some reason Installer has stopped working. I have downloaded aperture and other software but the files are blank documents and i am invited to choose an application - non of which are installer. WHat has happened and how do i fix it?

Thank you - I launched it and was then able to reset it as the default for installer packages - before it just didn't appear. Anyway it worked - so hopefully will continue. Wonder why it stopped working?

  • Printer Software Installer has stopped working

    Product: HP Laser Jet M1005 MFP
    OS: Windows 7, 64-bit
    Notebook ACER , Aspire 5349, Intel Celeron CPU B800 @ 1.50 GHz
    (new notebook, old printer - printer worked well on Windows XP)
    I downloaded driver ljM1005-HB-pnp-x64-en. Driver had been extracted and setup started.
    Installation started and after some initialization (~10 sec) it kept writing:
    Preinstalling the driver files...  or Copying files to hard drive...  (switching approx. once per second) after a while (~ 20 sec)
    Printer Software Installer has stopped working. Windows tried to find solution but did not find anything.
    I TRIED ALREADY EVERYTHING. I used patch for AMD processors (of course, did not work); I have Windows installer up to date; I disabled Internet Explorer 9.0 (I cannot uninstall and iether can I step back to IE 8.0 since notebook is brand new); There is no windows driver preinstalled for this printer and there is no similar driver working. 
    Driver cannot be installed and printer does not work.
    Please, help.

  • My computers hard drive has stoped working, how can I retrieve my Itunes library from my computer?

    My computers hard drive has stoped working. How can I retrieve my itunes library? My back ups were on this hard drive as well.
    When I brought my computer to be fixed they said they would retrieve photos and music and documents but loose my programs. That being said I am not sure if I will recover my music from itunes because it may fall under the program category. I support itunes by purchasing from itunes, but now i am in a position where i may loose years of purchassing music and it has me feeling a little bit sick to be honest...the stress this is causing is really big. DÙoes anyone have any experience with this type of problem?
    Help is appreciated, thank you.

    If the data is recoverable from the drive then they should have recovered the entire iTunes folder which includes the library database. Restore this into the <User's Music> folder of a replacement system, install iTunes, and it should be as before.
    See also  Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. Even if you don't have one there should be some useful links...

  • Windows Connection Manager Profile Installer Has Stopped Working

    Hi all, I thank all who can help me with this problem beforehand and will do so after.
    I am an IT technician at a university in South Africa. I am trying to install a custom made VPN program that works perfectly on every other machine but not this one laptop.
    It is a Lenovo G580 laptop running Windows 7. Every time I try to install the VPN i get the error message that Microsoft Connection Manager Profile Installer has stopped working.
    I have made sure all the updates are installed.
    I have done disk check.
    I have done System File Check.
    I have done Windows Repair.
    I have coppied the cmstp.exe and ole32.dll files from one windows to the problem computer.
    I have taken permission of both the above mentioned files.
    I have done anti-virus scans and anti-malware scans.
    I have tested that other applications(not VPN's) install correctly.
    I have tested that the VPN installed correctly on other computers and pulled a new one to make sure the application was not corrupted.
    Error details:
    Description:
      Stopped working
    Problem signature:
      Problem Event Name:    APPCRASH

      Application Version:    7.2.7601.17514
      Application Timestamp:    4ce7a860

    Hi,
    Generally speaking, this error can be caused by one or several of the below factors:
    a. The dll file is deleted accidentally from your system
    b. The dll file is damaged due to virus or spyware infection
    c. improper software removal
    d. The dll file was overwritten by an incompatible version.
    e. Outdated hardware drivers
    f. Too many invalid/obsolete registry entries.
    g. Related registry entries is corrupted.
    I would like to suggest you try the following steps to check the results:
    a. Do a system restore to undo recent system changes. If the error is just caused by the file getting corrupted or damaged, performing a system restore would help you to get a fresh copy back and also fix the related error well at the same time.
    b. Update the drivers for hardware devices and install any available Windows updates.
    c. Test in a new user account. If it works, please refer to Fix a corrupted user profile.
    Fix a corrupted user profile:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile
    If the individual troubleshooting advice above is unsuccessful, performing a startup repair or repair installation should restore all Windows DLL files to their working versions.
    Hope it helps.

  • Managed sql server installer has stopped working sql 2008 r2

    I tried to installed sql 2008 r2 on my windows 7 but unfortunately I got message "managed sql server installer has stopped working"
    1. I tried to program feature on and off feature 
    2. I checked setup file is corrupted or not setup file is well in condition
    3. I turn on firewall too.
    then again I tried to installed again same problem I faced.
    please any different way to overcome from this problem!
    regard Bishnu Khaling!

    Hi Bishnu,
    As Shanky’s post, you can post the SQL Server setup log files for analysis.
    According to the error message, it is usually a problem with the installation of .NET Framework on the machine. However, from your description, you try to turn on the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 feature and still fail to install SQL Server 2008 R2.
    Do you reboot your computer after enabling .NET Framework 3.5?
    To further troubleshoot this issue, I recommend you perform the following steps.
    1. Run the below tool to verify the state of one or more versions of the .NET Framework on the computer .
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2008/10/13/8999004.aspx
    2. If .Net Frameworks 3.5 cannot be verified in step1, please use the
    .NET Framework Repair Tool to repair it.
    3. If there’s no problem with .Net Frameworks 3.5, and you also have .NET Framework 4.0 or 4.5 installed on the computer, please uninstall .NET Framework 4.0 or 4.5 completely. Then reinstall SQL Server and check if it is successful.
    4. In addition, please make sure that the Windows 7 system is not damaged.
    For more details about the error, you can also review the following blog.

  • Adobe Flash Player Installer has stopped working

    I have recently gone through a lot of problems on this computer i have just now recently fixed. the computer was formated and all, and when i got onto the internet it said it the browser (both mozilla and IE) has stopped working however the problem is fixed but not with IE (it had to do with hardware acceleration). Well i went to download the newest (and ive tried older ones) version of flash player and when i start the installer after im prompted to run as admin, i immidietly get the message Adobe Flash Player has Stopped Working.

Ive tried turning off the firewalls and everything please help. I'm good with computers as i took basicly all the parts out and put it back in to fix this pc (it wuld not get passed first screen on start up ended up being bad stick of RAM i had just put it in, as well as tons of other problems happening with this hunk of junk).

  • Thunderbirs has stoped working in any way for me and more others

    Hello. Starting on 04/08/2014 the Thunderbird has stopped working in any way in my PC. I am running Windows 8.1 Pro x64. Before that day everything was ok and Thunderbird was working. I asked some friends using Windows 8 and they have the same problem. Thunderbird won't load the email accounts and won't send and receive any email. It won't even let us add a new email account. The message received when trying to add a new account is the following "Sorry - we're unable to communicate with our sign-up server. Please check your connection.". Also if we will try to move forward and add a new email account anyway the answer will be that Thunderbird can't connect to any server. We have uninstalled Thunderbird and install it again several times in the past days with no success. I was looking t delete the Thunderbird folder in Program files but I can't find it. The uninstall and install again procedure including deleting folder was a solution few years ago but it seams that now is not working anymore. I will really appreciate some help as my whole work is based on working with an email client and my work is stacked at the moment. I really don't know what other email client to use as the 2013 Outlook looks just terrible. Thank you very much

    When I try to open Thunderbird, first time I receive the message, "Sorry - we're unable to communicate with our sign-up server. Please check your connection."
    I will press the "skip and using my existing email", I will enter any Gmail or AOL email account (which usually works perfect with Thunderbird) and after enter it the name, email and password the message will be "Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account" (even if everything is correct). 2 days before was another message. Thunderbird found the settings for the email account but after pressing "Done", the message was something like the mail or password are not correct. (even if everything was correct). In the same time in browser the email will work. The email settings are correct. Everything was working fine and 3-4 days before Thunderbird just stopped working. Stopped to get emails or sending emails and after uninstall and install it again I couldn't even add my emails accounts again.
    Thank you for everything and I really hope in some help as soon as possible. I will really appreciate it.
