One suggestion: If you have currently tried to install Google Earth, try uninstalling it again and starting over.

[Armenian]

no, i didnt instal any google stuff.

it started happening right after i tried to instal "paint.net"

[Armenian]

still no solutions?

One solution would be to go to use System Restore to restore your computer to an earlier point. This won't delete any file you have created but it will uninstall recenctly installed programs based on which date you choose to restore to. You can access this by searching for System Restore and opening it and following the wizard. If you want to access it in Control Panel go: Control Panel> System and Maintenance> Backup and Restore Center and under Tasks on the left panel should be Repair Windows using System Restore. Follow the wizard and choose to restore to a point before you installed the program you are having problems with. Hope that helps.

it would, but i reallllllllllly would rather not do that, ive installed to much stuff.

someone said something about closing one of the msiexec.exe in my processes, althought that did the job temerarory, a couple seconds latter another one just pops up.

Have you tried creating another user profile (administrator) and logging on with that? This will give you new default settings. It's just a thought really but maybe worth a try.

Have a look in Msconfig/Startup and see if there is a program running there which could give you a lead (maybe an installer for Paint.net?) Untick it and try another boot.

Click on the Start button bottom left of Desktop, click on Run. Inthe Run box type msconfig, click OK. A screen will appear, click on the Startup tab to view what's running at Startup. You can then select/deselect items in the list then click OK. You are required to reboot your computer for changes to take effect.

this didnt fix the problem

[uhaligani]

What didn't fix the problem? Was there nothing unusual running on startup?

[Armenian]

i didnt see nothing unusual, i even tried running in diagnosic mode and that didnt do it.

[uhaligani]

There was no need to run in diagnostic mode. Did you click the "startup" tab to see if you had
any installers running there?

[Armenian]

yea nothing.
