Kodak Error Message when computer boots

I have Windows 64bit Vista Home Premium on a Dell Inspiron 530.

I tried to install Kodak Easyshare a couple of weeks ago and my computer crashed. So I uninstalled it (I'm using the picture card to transfer pictures now) and everything seems fine EXCEPT that every time I boot up the computer, this message appears:

"C:\PROGRA~3\Kodak\EasyShareSetup\$REGIS~1\Registration_7.9.30.1sxt
The specified module could not be found."

It doesn't seem to cause any harm, it's just annoying. I have searched for files that may cause it, but with no success. I am a beginner.

Thank you for any help!

Jan

Hello Jan,

You might check your Startup Programs list to see if there is one listed for this there. If so, then you can delete or disable it to hopefully stop this message as startup. I would be sure to check in all of the Run and RunOnce registry locations as well at that link to.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Re: Kodak Error Message when computer boots

I have all ways had trouble with Kodak installs as they tend to go deep into the system best thing I have to do is uninstall go to Kodak support there is a download that will clear all the Kodak of your PC.
Download and save Easyshare go to system configuration click services tag tick hide all Microsoft services then click on disable all/apply and restart then install Easyshare.
Go back to ser/con tick nermal startup this is the only thing that worked for me and I do this with all the updates this way I found works best and good luck.

Re: Kodak Error Message when computer boots

your computer is looking for the form that you use to register the software with kodak. you could try to install, then uninstall again, to remove the registry entries. or you could try a utility such as ccleaner (leave it on default settings if you are a beginner). just about any registry fixer will work, but ccleaner is free and reliable.

Re: Kodak Error Message when computer boots

Thank you guys, so much. I downloaded ccleaner and ran it--but I sitll get the error message. I went to the Kodak site and ran the download that is supposed to remove all traces of files--it did not work. I'm pretty sure it's not in the Startup programs.

"I would be sure to check in all of the Run and RunOnce registry locations as well at that link to."

What are Run and RunOnce registry locations?

Re: Kodak Error Message when computer boots

did you run both modules of ccleaner? one cleans programs, and the other cleans the registry. by default, the program opens to the program cleaner. you have to select the registry icon (on the left)

Thanks, but when I open it, it does ask me to click "I agree," but then it only gives me two options: an arrow to run and an X to exit. I don't see anything else to select.

Okay, I did that. Now should I click "Fix selected issues..." (everything is selected)?

Well, I clicked "Fix all issues." It seemed to get rid of a lot of files... but then when I restart the computer, that same blasted message comes up. Maybe I should just learn to live with it?

Re: Kodak Error Message when computer boots

i would try reinstalling the program, reboot, then uninstall it again. also, you might try running ccleaner multiple times in a row, until it doesnt find any errors.
