    Windows 7 Problem


    Hi I have had Windows 7 in about a month, and yesterday, something happened so I can not install / uninstall or go in and change something.
    when I try to uninstall such Spotify, it says

    (Screenshot)


    But the program exists and it is possible to use it.
    Same when I try to change a setting on your computer

    Grateful for answers

    "Windows can't find the file [xxxx]. Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again."

    This screen shot is an example of a larger problem, correct?

    You are not able to make changes to your Windows settings, correct?

    Can you uninstall an application from the Control Panel?

    Do you have an up to date anti-virus program running?

    Are you trying to uninstall the program as a user or as administrator? you need administrator privileges to be able to uninstall the program

    Dont Uninstall directly.. Do it from Control Panel-> Uninstall Program.. If it still cant find the file.. then delete the folder manually, and run CCleaner to remove Registry Files.. Hope it helps :)

    You could also just use the uninstall feature from within CCleaner first
