Any help would be appreciated. For Vista, 1. Enter regedit in start search 2. Right click on Appdata in value list on right pane 4. Select Modify 5. If value is different or missing, just type as mentioned in step5.
Okay, I did everything you said. Or is there something wrong with my computer? This worked spectacularly well for me! I was having trouble installing Acrobat and several other applications, including Java Updates. I would not be surprised if this is also why I could finally get some Office updates to install which had been really stubborn until now.
In my experience, machines are really picky about that sort of thing. That said, this worked like a charm for me! I have the exact same problem. Did you find help? Where can I redownload it? Also, I do not remember deleting it, so that is another problem.
Can someone tell me how to resolve this error message so I can install iTunes? This also happens when trying to install other things too.
Im having the same problem right now on my computer.. Thank you Ltinguy. We have tried everything and computer will not install Quick Time. Thanks in advance for any guidance. I guess, some kind of way, the folder got lost. Can anyone help me with this? Is there any way to restore it? Thanks so much, Sudeep. I was having the same problems as everyone else who commented and I did what you suggested. It worked perfectly. Now I can install anything. My computer crashed and I have to reinstall Vista, but I can get to all of my files.
Is it worth copying over the Appdata directory? Or does it matter if I am reinstalling the OS? I did exactly what Sudeep said in my admin account!! A little irrelevant, but watch out for viruses. No-one firewalls Appdata as it would cause to much chaos in clean apps, so virus writers will put things there… take me for example… was writing an experimental virus that was completely harmless, ran into a speedbump, so I forgot to implement the code that would recognise my specific machine, so when I overcame the problem, there were no more runtime errors, and my Appdata was crawling with my own virus that avast wouldnt detect, and it was growing too fast for me to stop it… had to end up restarting, and writing another program to track down all the manifests and delete them… as I said, a little irrelevant, but be wary of anything unfamiliar or dodgy in the Appdata folder….

According to ComputerPerformance. This might not be the exact spot to raise this but I have over time had regular problems with both the registry and the files structure.
This seems to relate to running under 64 bits something creates endless structures under WOW So here is another rouge application writing to the directory instead of the registry creating endless structures of "Application Data".
I'm guessing that they occur when I make changes or do use a certain function in a program or something along those lines. Learn More. Ask a question. Quick access. Search related threads.
