Why my addons and dictionaries has been removed or disabled after installing GimpShop?

Hey there
I tired to install GimpShop, which suppose to be already customised to look like a PSH version of Gimp. However the installer makes some funny business and all the crapware possible: toolbars, addons etc. I stopped the installation and removed the crapware using AdwCleaner, SpyBot 2.0 and Eset Online Scanner. However, my dictionaries, add-ons in both Firefox and Gimp were either disabled or removed.
So, here are my questions:
1. Why where they disabled or removed? BTW I couldn't reactive them.
2. Why Firefox is the only browser that installs without asking addons form freeware installers (which very often you can not uncheck their installations)? Chrome has less crap and Opera never has anything unwanted installed.
3. Why Firefox keeps hanging up ale slowing down the system when there is only one heavy page? Or keeps freezing when Adobe Flash in YouTube constantly crashes?

<blockquote>1. Why where they disabled or removed? BTW I couldn't reactive them. </blockquote>
I am guessing it was part of the installation that was stopped/removed. Something may have been corrupted.

It is possible to prevent Flash from crashing or hanging again with these troubleshooting tips:

  • Error: Product key has been revoked...after installing on my new MAC (employee download)

    I am having issues installing Premier Pro CS6 for Mac.   I purchased this via the employee program with a link to download. When I insert the product code after running the install program, it says that the product key it has been revoked and to contact Adobe. I have used it in the past so I don’t know why it says that after I have already paid for it. I bought a new MAC so that’s why I want to install it on this computer.  Thanks. I look forward to hearing from you.

  • I bought a iphone from someone and i think the driver and software has been removed. Is there anything on the web that i can download to reinstall the software i need to get it working again

    Is there any software that i can download from the web to fix my phone? i bought it off the streets and the software and driver must have been deleted cause i can only get the itunes logo and i cant restore it.

    There is no driver software on the iPhone that anyone can remove, per se. Why can't you restore? Is the iPhone not recognized in iTunes? If not, see:

    Otherwise, please post back with details about the problem and someone can probably provide further suggestions.

  • Transition drag and drop has been removed

    I want to know what happen to the drag and drop of the trasition with 10.0.3

    Since my question relates directly to this thread and Tom's answer, I'm going to ask it here hoping that is the proper way to ask it.
    I'm working through some tutorials that show the old default choice that you had between Full Overlap and Avalable Media.  I understand why Available Media (using footage from the handles vs. shortening the project by using footage from the selected clips) would have always been the best default option.  However, I can also see where Full Overlap might be necessary (if, for instance, the additional footage pulled from the handles to accommodate the transition was not usable due to visual or audible distractions).
    If you need the equivalent of Full Overlap now, how do you get it?  I don't see an option anywhere.

    That was the first thing I check, my X no longer exist, the app still works fine and does everything it did in the past, the the x (delete) option is no longer there.  I have deleted and redownloaded the app and did a complete reset, X still not there as an option.  Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

    Try to remove it and plug it back in.  SD cards are not the most robust things.  I have had several die on me.  You can try to plug it into another device and see if it's readable.  If it's not, it has likely died.

  • How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance

    How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance downloading it again, especially because (believe it or not) I added it to my phone because that's precisely where I wanted it!! Any help much appreciated

    FYI I had to put this link into firefox to reply - because **** back safari just wouldn't register my clicks to any of the links on the post... Despite reloadeing and even restarting my computer. Totally annoying and a massive pain in the ***.
    But in terms of my initial query; thanks for responding. But no, this is NOT the cause of the problem. I have auto sync and sync over wifi activated, but have also selected manually manage music and videos. Plus, all of my music and videos are on my macbook, absolutely all of it, so if it my phone was syncing with my macbook everything would still be on the phone. Life would be peachy if my phone jsut copied everything that was on my macbook, but unfortuantely it keeps deleting tracks for no apparent reason.
    Any thoughts greatly welcomed, because at the moment i can only conclude that my iphone is crap.

    Just what error message are you getting?
    Are you trying to redownload them directly to the iPod?
    If you are getting an error message that included Open GL 2 or similar that means that the app requires that but only the 3G and later iPods support that.

  • After downloading osx 10.9.2 when i open my logic pro 9 and begin to audition loops that came with lp9 i get a message that says "audio device has been removed  and then a second message the " select driver not found(-10202). my interface is a apogee duet

    after downloading osx 10.9.2 when i open my logic pro 9 and begin to audition loops that came with lp9 i get a message that says "audio device has been removed  and then a second message the " select driver not found(-10202). my interface is a apogee duet. Can anyone provide a solution to this problem. Thanks

    YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!
    I got it!!! Yes!!!
    Guys, I've solved my problem about that error -10202 (Selected driver not found).
    I have installed in my Mac Pro (OS X 10.5.8) a document with an extension ".rsrc" to correct the position of the accents in my keyboard, like acute accent, tilde and circumflex.
    That file is called "U.S. - International.rsrc" and it's stored in the following path:
    "Macintosh HD/Library/Keyboard Layouts"
    So, when it's properly installed, I can choose 2 country flags on the right side of the menu bar (U.S. - International and Brazilian).
    That's the clue!
    When I pick up "U.S. - International", my keyboard works fine with the accents, >>>BUT<<< Logic Pro 9 doesn't recognize my audio driver; and when I pick up "Brazilian", my keyboard doesn't work with the accents exactly as it shows me on each key, BUT Logic Pro 9 DOES recognize my audio driver.
    So, when I want to write anything out, I will pick up the "US - International" and when I want to work on the Logic Pro 9, I will pick up "Brazilian".
    I hope I can help all of you.
    Regards,
    Renato Veiga.
