Cannot Start Application after installing a program

 Hi Harry Cruz,

           You can follow the below for resolving this problem-

• First you have to restart your computer
• When your computer start again then press F8 continuously and select Safe Mode option
• Then you have to select Command Prompt. Option
• Then type regedit in the command prompt option and press enter
• If you can see that registry key is set to  C:recycledsirc32.exe "%1" %* then your computer must be infected by W32/SirCam virus
• So you have to use a strong firewall or Antivirus with license key and scan your computer.
• After removing this you can open all programs which you have installed.
• If the method will not work then you have to clean install your windows. It will definitely remove all virus from your local drive

Cannot Start Application after installing a program

For windows 7 and Vista:

1. Enter Control Panel.

2. Select Program.

3. Select Turn windows features off.

4. A new window will open, make sure you have .net framework ( v3.5) or higher in your system and the folders inside are checked.

If the above mentioned way didn't work try downloading a newer version of the software that you are trying to download.
Hope this worked
