Please wait while windows configures microsoft visual studio professional 2013

After installing visual community 2013 and rebooting visual studio works fine but all other microsoft office programs display "please wait while windows configures microsoft visual studio professional 2013" and continues the installation for
about 1 minute before the program starts. I tried deleting mso.dll and reinstalling but it is still the same. Any help would be appreciated?

Hi iwallhead,
Then can your VS work fine? Anyway, please upload the installation log.
Use a tool named collect.exe to collect the log file. Download
collect.exeand
run it directly. The utility creates a compressed cabinet of all the VS and .NET logs to
%TEMP%\vslogs.cab. Please upload the
vslogs.cab file on onedrive.
I will help check if any install error exists.
Best regards

Launching VB6 Editor after installing Visual Studio 2013 results in "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio..."

I have had various versions of Visual Studio installed beside Visual Basic 6.0 Enterprise for some time with no problems, most recently Visual Studio 2012 Premium.
I recently installed Visual Studio 2013 Premium, and now every time I open VB6 I get a dialog that says "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2013" that shows a progress bar. After it finishes (30 seconds or
so), it launches again and again and finally VB6 will open. This happens with each instance of VB6, regardless if I've already done it once and never run VS2013 in between.
If I cancel the dialog, I get this error message in a dialog: "Error 1712. One or more of the files required to restore your computer to its previous state could not be found. Restoration will not be possible." Several more "Please wait"...
dialogs will appear and if I continue to cancel, eventually I'll get the VB6 editor. It appear to work fine despite the error messages.
It seems to me that the VS2013 installer flagged some dll's or other files to be rolled back whenever starting VB6. It doesn't appear to be necessary, and I'd like to avoid playing the "Please wait" wack-a-cancel-button game before launching each
instance of VB6 (or waiting several minutes for no reason). So how do I fix this?
Note: I've seen something similar happen in Outlook on a different PC when upgrading from 2010 to 2013. The same sort of "Please wait"... dialog would appear each time I opened Outlook. Judging by the "similar" questions that popped up when
entering this forum post, I'd say this is a general problem with upgrading older versions or installing newer versions of major Microsoft software side-by-side.

I found the answer!
I was having the exact same issue, and I was search for a solution and I happened across the following thread: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f4b0fd38-f4f9-41ea-bd8d-834203a175d2/building-visual-studio-2010-project-triggers-please-wait-while-windows-configures-visual-studio?forum=vssetup&prof=required
Scroll a small bit down, and there is a post by Barry Wang explaining that you need to use event viewer to find out what is missing. Anyway, I opened event viewer, then open VS 6, then hit refresh in the event viewer (under Windows Logs -> Application)
and saw a warning message from MsiInstaller. It gave me the following message:
Detection of product '{9C593464-7F2F-37B3-89F8-7E894E3B09EA}', feature 'Visual_Studio_Professional_x86_enu', component '{E3FF99AA-78B9-4A06-8A74-869E9F65E1FE}' failed. The resource 'C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\URTInstallPath_GAC\' does
not exist.
I opened an elevated command prompt, I navigated to the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework folder and verified that 'URTInstallPath_GAC' didn't exist, and then I did "md URTInstallPath_GAC".
Closed and reopened VS 6, and it instantly opened - no "Please wait" message.
Now this may or may not be the same problem you are having (problem is - I have had it happen on two separate computers now with VS 6 and VS 2013 installed), but it should point you in the right direction. In fact, you should be able to use the Event Viewer
for anytime the "Please wait" message shows up for any application, and then once there find out what is really missing.

Visio 2013 startup problem "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visio..."

Hello,
I am getting the "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visio Professional 2013" window on every load of this program. I have found no resolutions from Google searches. I have tried a full reinstall of Visio, registry modifications
(per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2685120?wa=wsignin1.0), tried running it in safe mode (still happens), tried a clean boot (still happens). I'm out of ideas. Does anyone know of a fix?
Thanks,
Nick

Hi,
Try the following method:
If you have an earlier version of Visio installed, such as Visio 2003 or Visio 2007 or Visio 2010, follow these steps:
1.In Windows 7 or Windows Vista, click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, and then select Run.
In Windows XP, click Start, and then click Run.
2.Type the following command, and then press Enter:
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Visio\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
3.(Optional) Instead of typing the command line, you can copy it to your clipboard, right-click an empty section of the Run box, select Paste, and then press Enter.
4.Verify that the problem is resolved.

Visio 2013 startup problem "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visio Professional 2013

Hello,
I am having a frustrating problem with Visio as it is opening. It keeps displaying the message that I have in the title about it trying to configure. I have tried the following:
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Visio\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
To manually fix this issue, run 'regedit' and manually change the value of [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.vsd] to Visio.Drawing.11 (if using the Visio client) or VisioViewer.Viewer (if using the Visio Viewer).
secedit /configure
/cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf
/db defltbase.sdb
/verbose
What's strange is the user profile that it was installed under works fine, but any other user that logs onto the computer gets this message every time. I even tried exporting the entire Current User Office chain from the registry to the other user
and that still didn't work
I can get it to work if I create a shortcut and put in a "/noreg" handle at the end of the target, but that doesn't help with opening files.
Please help!

Hi dustyb23,
This issue may be caused by the [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.vsd] key not being equal to “Visio.Drawing.11" or equal to “VisioViewer.Viewer” if you have Visio Viewer Installed.
To resolve it, we can repair Visio first, from Control Panel > Programs and Features > Visio > Change > Repair. If it doesn’t work, we can also reinstall Visio.
However, if the repair/reinstall/configuration does not complete successfully, the user will continue to receive this message at each launch of Visio. To manually fix this issue, run 'regedit' and manually change the value of [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.vsd] to
Visio.Drawing.11 (if using the Visio client) or VisioViewer.Viewer (if using the Visio Viewer).
For more detail information:

If there is anything I can do for you regarding this issue, feel free to post back.

It's recommended to download and install

Running under WIN7-64 bit with Office 2013. Requests reinstall every time it is run. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. No change. Office 2013 does not recognize that Visio 2007 is installed. Copy paste operations between Visio and Word 2013 don't
work. Tried disabling sharepoint access for Visio 2007 and did a repair for Office 2013. No change.Tried various compatibility modes. No change. Ran Microsoft troubleshooter which verified there is a compatibility issue but provided no solution.
Tried the following...
Type the following command, and then press Enter:

Please wait while Windows configures NI DSC Common Tools

So I let NI Update install a bunch of things over the weekend (only about 18GB of download ) among which the LabVIEW DSC 2013 SP1 update. Now every time I startup any of my installed 32 Bit versions of LabVIEW, including the version 2013SP1, I get this lovely Windows installer dialog "Please wait while Windows configures NI DSC Common Tools 2013 SP1". This dialog pops up several times during every start of LabVIEW, I believe about four times before showing the startup splash screen and then another 3 or 4 times until LabVIEW is fully up and running.
Letting those dialogs run or canceling them seems to make no difference at all. Does anybody know what I need to do to fix this annoying problem, short of deinstalling the entire DSC packge?

Thanks Mike.
I've seen it before after installing the LabVIEW 7.0 Runtime Engine. I have to say that this computer is pretty loaded with all kinds of NI software and other development software. It seems the installer for the LabVIEW 7.0 Runtime and the LabVEW 2013 SP1 DSC Common Tools both stumble over something on this machine that causes some component to not register properly and when then any LabVIEW version is started it attempts to register that component (apparently several times) whenever another component is loaded during LabVIEW initilialization.
I didn't see any errors during the installation of any of those components (but the LabWindows/CVI update that was also downloaded during the NI Update cycle consistently fails during several of its components during install).
Most likely it is some .Net assembly that causes all this trouble, and I loath the lack of any more detailed message that would allow to better pinpoint the actual subcomponent that causes this.
For the time being I simply uninstalled the NI LabVIEW 2013 SP1 DSC Common Tools (and the LabVIEW 7.0 RTE) completely from the machine. Interestingly enough it was not enough to uninstall the entire LabVIEW 2013 SP1 DSC Toolkit but I had to explicitedly go into the downloaded installer and select the MSI file for the DSC Common Tools and select the uninstall option in there to really get rid of these annoying messages during every startup of any 32 bit LabVIEw version on this machine.

"please wait while windows configures iTunes"

I get this message almost every time I start iTunes. It has been run several times, but will pop up often enough to be really bothersome. I run vista. Does anyone know what's wrong and how to fix it? Thanks

Many users of iTunes™, and of other Microsoft® Windows® applications, have found their systems hiccup when certain applications are launched. This can happen when an application cannot get configuration data stored in the Microsoft® Windows® registry. In some such cases, the start-up is aborted but in others the application will rebuild the information it needs to run. When this happens, the user can receive the message “Please wait while Windows configures [name of application]” followed by a minute or so while the program’s start-up gets sorted out.
Thousands, and possibly millions, of iTunes™ users have been afflicted by this problem which first struck me around the first of December, 2010 after an automatic update of the software, specifically to iTunes™ version 10.1.0.56. My computer runs Microsoft® Windows Vista™ Business Edition and its software is up to date.
A Google™ search led me to many websites with information about the same issue. I found that a number of fixes had been suggested and were reported to have worked in some cases. For three weeks, I tried in vain many proposed solutions, usually a few times, including:
• Via the Control panel, removing iTunes™ and re-installing it.
• Trying the same thing but with Microsoft’s now unsupported Windows Install Clean Up tool, that quite often been able to exorcise from the Windows™ registry stubborn residue of previous installations gone bad.
• Resorting to so-called Windows™ “registry hacks”, in an attempt to regenerate the application preferences for iTunes™ normally re-accessed on each launch.
• Recreating Desktop “shortcuts” in various ways.
No posted solution worked in my case but I kept on trying. After dozens of hours (OCD can be a fine thing in the right circumstances), I eventually did resolve my particular problem with an as yet unposted modification of the Windows™ registry
Before proceeding, please be aware that a messed up registry can transform your computer into a proverbial boat anchor. Changes should therefore be avoided unless one is willing and able to spend several days reinstalling software from scratch. Notwithstanding this advice and subject always to the caveat in my closing paragraph, here is the sequence of steps I took that has momentarily solved my particular problem:
1. Click the Start Button, and then Run.
2. Launch the Windows™ registry editor by entering Regedit and then clicking on “OK.”
3. Navigate the registry’s tree-and-branch hierarchy as follows:
HKEYCURRENTUSER
└─ Software
└─ Apple Computer Inc.
└─ iTunes
At this point you may be unable to see two dependent “child” objects in the folder, one labelled (Default) and then SM Shortcut Installed but if you try you might receive an access blocked message. Continue with the next step anyway.
4. Right-click on the iTunes folder and select Permissions, then Advanced, and lastly the Owner tab.
5. Add as Owners of the iTunes folder the following valid user IDs: SYSTEM, Administrators and your own.
6. Go back to Permissions and assign Full for the SYSTEM and for Administrators, and Read for USERS and then check to box at the bottom left of the dialogue box to apply these permissions to the folder’s dependent objects.
There is no consistent reason why Microsoft™ Windows™ applications end up improperly registered. What worked in my case may not do so for you. Any suggestions made here are offered gratis and on the express condition that, in relying upon them, you accept sole and full responsibility for any consequences. My only assurance of a kind is to wish you good luck.

ITunes 10.7 upgrade - 'Please Wait While Windows Configures iTunes'

Upgraded to iTunes 10.7, which I now regard as one of the poorest pc-related decisions I've ever made. The time suck on this issue is massively depressing.
Running Windows Vista. Have completely uninstalled and re-installed (clean registries, re-boots etc) all iTunes and Apple products with no resolution.
Every time I try to start iTunes I get a "Please Wait While Windows Configures iTunes" message on loop. At some point it will usually default to "Checking iTunes Library" and then both that and the installer will run in tandem. When I look at Task Manager it seems to indicate from the amount of memory usage that iTunes is in fact running in some form or at some level, but it does not actually open the program.
When I reinstalled yesterday iTunes opened right up (after the install it did not ask me to reboot the system). When I restarted the system this morning the problem was back. Just installs and installs and installs ... Doesn't actually open. Wouldn't any registry conflict/problem have been fixed with the clean reinstall?
I've tried every solution/trick/suggestion I can find with internet searches. No luck. This has been a month now. iPhone and various iPods completely inaccessible re content and that really hammers home the danger of relying on a closed system like this. Really disappointed in this situation.
Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated.

Each time I have a message ''please wait while windows configures iTunes''.

pls help me.
thank you in advance .

when i start my itunes each time i have a message ''please wait while windows configures iTunes''.
The iTunes desktop shortcut is an "advertised shortcut". When you click it, the first thing it does is check the iTunes.msi and determines (against the installation database in there) whether or not there's any files and registry entries and whatnot for iTunes missing on your PC. If it finds something missing, it'll do a repair install of iTunes, which is the "configures" message you're seeing.
As to why it's always doing it in your case, and fixing it ... we'd better first work out if there's real damage to the iTunes stuff on the PC or if the shortcut/itunes.msi/registry machinery is just a bit confused.
Apart from the "configures" message you're getting every time you launch iTunes, is it working okay? Are you able to sync, play music, use the Store and so forth without any trouble? Or are you getting other problems as well?

After upgrade to 10.0.1.22 - "please wait while windows configures itunes"

Hi all,
After successfully running iTunes without problems including version 10, I routinely upgrade to the latest version 10.0.1.22 and all of a sudden now I keep getting this "please wait while windows configures itunes" dialog with a status bar before the iTunes application properly launches. Once its up, its functioning fine, but its annoying to get this dialog and status bar every time I use the application. What can I do? I tried a repair install and it didn't do anything.

There's no trace of any other itl file on my PC
Are there any files /Music/iTunes/Previous iTunes libraries/ ?
guess this means I won't see my apps and music again
Just because they do not show in iTunes does not mean they ar enot on yoru computer.
Besides, you do make regular backups of your computer correct?
Look in /Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications/ for your apps and /Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/ for everything else.
If they are there then iTunes menu File > Add folder to library and select /Music/iTunes/ .

But if I remove Adobe Reader traces, then this means I am removing Adobe Reader XI, right?
I need Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.x becuase I have its license, and I need its functionality.
I had to install Adobe Reader XI, becuase I found annoying problem with Chrome browser, everytime I open PDF inside Chrome, I get prompt from Chrome that I must install the latest version of Adobe Reader. This prompt is so annoying to the extent that sometimes the PDF does not open at all, or it will cause unwanted display related resutls.
