| 134412 | 2003-04-09 09:08:00 | One would have thought that experience would have been gained by now . . . You cannot simply "delete" applications . You succeed in deleting the executable files, but the . dll files and other system files that are contained in other folders, and which all have registry entries relating to the program are still there . They are being called, and trying to call non-existant routines . Therefore installations can only be "uninstalled" . Usually successfully . If your deletion of the program has caused a corrupted dll file, it will not neccesarily be replaced on re-installation . It may be a shared . dll, and the error you are seeing may relate to other software being summarily exterminated instead of being uninstalled . I am unsure of how anyone on the forum can advise you, apart from reformat and use the computer correctly . |

| 134413 | 2003-04-09 09:21:00 | Hi, You should try using the Microsoft Registry Cleaner. Or use the Registry. Before editing the Registry, always make sure you do a backup. Go to Run Type Regedit Just go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall Look for "QuickTime" and delete. Go back to Add\Remove Programs and click the Delete. The error message might say "The program is already uninstalled. Do you want to remove it from the list?", or something like that... Click Yes to confirm Reinstall Quick Time Maybe this might help |
