Hi everyone,
I think my problem should be considered security or adminstration. (if not
let me know.. I am also posting this same message on the General section.)
As the title said, I can't go to "Add/Remove Program" in Control Panel.
I mean, if I go to "Start" -> "Control Panel" .. it won't let me.
I have to go to "My computer" -> "Control Panel".. even if am in it.
I can't go to"add/Remove" program...
I am the owner and have admin. rights to it. However, I can't do it.
I double click on it. no response. it was prefectly ok for the past 5
months.
Then, the next morning I try to use it. IT doesn't work. Not only that,
some programs do not run also. AND I can't install or uninstall new
software.
SO.... I used the most popular way to solve this problem at first. Which is
to reinstall the whole OS. Which I did. After the installation,
everything works great. Then, it doesn't work anymore. I just finished
installing the OS and one application. So... I don't know what going to.
(I did do ll the SP1 update)
However, I do notice that while I was installing or waiting for some apps.
to install, the "network" icon on the taskbar was flashing or stay on for a
long time.
As if it was using the internet/network. So, I thought may be I had vrius
or worms. But my virus program couldn't find any. I am clueless and
helpless now.
Would someone please help me or point me to the right direction?
Thanks in advance.
SIncerely
