Installed MS Office Enterprise 2007 (708mb) on my PC, thinking it would overwrite my current application, Microsoft Office XP Professional with FrongPage (468mg) but that didn't happen. I still see the MS Office XP in the Uninstall or Change a program feature of Windows Vista. I want to...

I seemed to have collected a bunch of Microsoft Visual C ++ 2XXX Redistributable and Microsoft .NET Framework on my computer. Is it cool for me to uninstall all of the older ones and just keep the newest one?

I have been using MS Office 2010 Beta for several months on my main PC and a laptop, As I have been very pleased with this I have purchased a full version of Office Home & Business 2010 (retail pack, with DVD). It seems that I have to delete the Beta version before I can install the full...

Hi! Today I couldn't see all my installed applications in the 'Uninstall or change programs' tab. It's only showing the x64 applications which are installed on C:\program files\ but it's not showing anything else. Nothing what is installed on D drive or to program files (x86) doesn't show...

I use Windows 7 Pro x 64. I have an imaging program residing on C partition. I want to move it to E. I tried to copy and paste but all I get is a bunch of individual pieces. I need to be able to move the program and be able to double click on it and have it open and be useable, just as it does...

Okay, I'm stumped. When I go under "Uninstall a Program", most of my programs aren't even there. At all. It shows 25 of them, when I have much, much more. I can still use all of my programs (I'm pretty sure!), so what's up with THAT? Secondly, I can't use ReadyBoost on my flash drive anymore...

Hello, Programs like MSN Live and AIM create icons on the task bar for simply running, even if they are not actively being used. I just switched from XP where programs like AIM and MSN Live would just stay in the system tray in the bottom right corner of the screen. I highly prefer this. If i...

Hello, I recently installed Windows 7 on a partition that originally had my system files on it, and saved my other partition that had all my personal stuff. Everything went fine, and I can access the files on the non-system partition if I manually got to them through my computer, but when I am...

The only Microsoft office programs I have are Word Viewer 2003 and Sharepoint Designer 2007. Both of them are freebies. Windows Update insisted that I install all the Microsoft Office updates and Service Packs for Office 2003 and 2007. That seems like overkill to me but I did it anyway. Why...

I was attempting to instal and mod the game Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion from Bethesda softworks, and was having problems with it, so I decided to statover. I ran all of the relevant uninstalls (the oriignals games, the expansion, the mods) but there is still a bethesda folder in my program files...

Hello again, Day 5 of a upgrade to Windows 7, running like a dream:p especially now i sorted out the msn issues. One little query. On the updates, it did 8 updates in total on the installation, and has since been unable to do anymore updates whatso ever, this has been driving me crazy as the...

My friend was having trouble getting WMDC to work on his Mac, so I installed it on my PC (running win7 x64 pro) and let him use it to get what he needed done. Of course, no longer needing the program, I uninstalled it. However, I still noticed a process running at startup under the description...

I tried searching for this but didn't find anything so I hope I'm not beating a dead horse... I have Windows 7 RC Build 7100 installed and so far really like it. I installed Office Pro 2007 and it seems to be working just fine. I want to uninstall office so I can use it on another laptop...
