| | System Administrator I installed Roxio CD Creator 5 in Vista, but found that it is not compatible. I get the following messages: "The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation. Your do not have sufficient access to uninstall Easy CD Creator 5. Please contact you system administrator." I don't understand how to do this since I am signed in as administrator. |

| | Re: System Administrator I didn't pose my question properly. I know it is not compatible. I want to uninstall it but can't figure out how to give myself permission to do it. I just don't understand the Administrator thing. I am told to contact the administrator, but I don't understand how to do it.

| | Re: System Administrator Carey, I am feeling more and more like a total idiot. I can't find the uninstall file, except as an option in the control panel. Nothing happens when I right click on that, and when I left click I get the message: "You do not have sufficient access to uninstall Easy CD Creator Platinum. Please contact you system administrator." When I click on 'change' I can start the uninstall process, but then it stalls out about half way through and I have to restart the computer. I even tried it using the installation disk, and the same thing happened. I need to get this program out so the Creator 9 program will work.

| | Re: System Administrator Hello bwatson. Try downloading the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/29031. It will show you all the programs on your computer and may give you a better chance of uninstalling it than, perhaps having to make changes to the registry which is what apparently some fellow at Roxio forums was advocating for a clean install of Roxio. I don't know, barely working my way around Windows Media Player, but hope the link helps "Carey Frisch [MVP]" wrote: Quote: > Boot into Safe Mode, then try to uninstall the program. > > -- > Carey Frisch > Microsoft MVP > Windows Shell/User > > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > "bwatson" <bwatson@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:41C0EBF6-A67C-4D80-B0C1-3E4C1CD7C0B4@xxxxxx > Carey, I am feeling more and more like a total idiot.
