Vista Home Basic Error 1606 %PUBLIC%\Desktop\
I've recently had Norton Anti-virus 2009 and when i went to get my live updates 3 of them wouldn't install. I wasnt too worried about this because i figured i'd uninstall it and re-install it to see if it fixes the errors. Instead of this being an easy task before it would finish updating i kept getting this error %PUBLIC%\Desktop\ i decided to get rid of Norton and use Avast because i dont have time to fool around, but now the problem has come back, and its stopping me from installing Windows Microsoft Office. I cant run it from the disk so i opened the setup.exe folder as an admin to run it and i keep getting the Error: 1606 %PUBLIC%\Desktop\ message/ i cant find anything on it and all the forums i do find are for XP. I'm also having trouble with my desktop because i cant rename my folders. If i change the name it'll automatically switch back. If i create a new folder and try to change the name it wont let me either. It'll either switch back to New Folder or it'll say that folder name that i create doesnt exist. Id appreciate it if anyone could help me or if you know of any other sites with info related to my issue -- DJ AK47 |
