Framework dll issue [Resolved]

[Guest]

[Dr.T.O.Morrow]

Yeah, I got it. It is on my computer now. However, this does not solve my uninstall problem. I can't uninstall it, not even in safe mode. This zip file is for using after you uninstall it. I tried Revo Uninstaller, but you were right it didn't work for this problem. I tried another uninstaller that I have, and it reads, "Invalid Uninstall Link". I try using Windows add and remove programs, and it says that Comodo isn't even installed on my computer. I added two additional attachments that may shed some light on the subject.

You need to follow all those steps in USSS posts. Dont just try to use the batch file.

[Dr.T.O.Morrow]

Yes, I know and step 3 of those instructions reads:

3.  Open your third-party uninstallation tool (or Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs) and run it as you would normally uninstall any application.

I can not do this. I tried doing it that way, and it said it was not there, and may have been uninstalled. Which, it has not been.

Try going to C:\Program Files\Comodo\Firewall

Double click on the cfpconfg.exe file to see if that puts it in add/remove programs or try the repair file.

Matty,

I did that. The attachment is what happened when I did that.

Yes, it is in the add/remove programs and when I tried using that I got a popup that said the Firewall was already uninstalled. What repair file are you talking about? What is it called?

[Matty_R]

It should be a folder in C:\Program Files\Comodo\Firewall

When I try to uninstall it, it tells me that it can't find framework.dll; however, as you can see in the attachment, the framework is there.

That's a screenshot of your %programfiles%\COMODO\Firewall\Repair directory, not %programfiles%\COMODO\Firewall .  The Repair directory is like a backup of the core CFP files. 

In other words, your computer should have the framework.dll file in the Firewall and Repair directories.  If you only have one then simply copy and paste framework.dll to the Firewall directory.

Edit: Looks like Matty was quicker lol

Dr. T.O.M.:

Try Matty and Soyabeaner's suggestion(s) FIRST. 

If that does not fix your problem, download and execute the batch file ("CFP3 File+Registry Cleaner.zip") found at the END of the FIRST post in this thread:
http://forums.comodo.com/help_for_v3/comprehensive_instructions_for_completely_removing_comodo_firewall_pro_3_info-t17220.0.html

Unzip that file, then run it and see if it resolves your issue.  If not, you will probably have to perform the comprehensive uninstallation steps in the post mentioned above.

Well, the cfconfig.exe was in the repair folder. If that is the repair file it didn't do a thing but give me a popup that says it can't help me. I provided two new attachments of my Comodo Firewall folder, and my Comodo Firewall Repair folder. What you see is everything that is in it.  Is there anything missing from it? Maybe that is the problem?

[Dr.T.O.Morrow]

USSS,

Will that prevent my firewall from working? I can't uninstall it, but at least it still runs.

I don't know if that's the culprit, but you are missing one file in the Firewall folder: cfpconfig.exe. Copy and paste this file from the Repair folder to the Firewall folder.

You also have a bunch of other files that I don't recognize in the Firewall folder.  Hope they're not conflicting with things.


Here are mine.

OK, I tried that solution and rebooted. It didn't solve the problem, but when I click the Diagnostic link in CPF I get a popup. Before it wasn't even doing that. Unfortunately, the popup was basically saying it couldn't find framework.dll, so it couldn't help me.

Do you think all of the extra files that are not related are causing the problem?

[Soyabeaner]

Like I posted, I don't know if that's the culprit, so try everything you haven't yet.  I would delete those files (not permanently, just to the Recycle Bin) and see what develops.

USSS,

Yes, running the batch file essentially removes most, if not all, of the remnants of CFP.

Continue your attempts to solve the problem using Soyabeaner's suggestions.

However, my gut feeling tells me you will need to completely remove CFP, then reinstall it.  You will need to allot about an hour or so to complete all of the steps in my guide.

[Dr.T.O.Morrow]

Well, I did it. It didn't solve the problem; however, it did stop some of the popups that I had posted. Don't get me wrong, trying those methods again did not create any solutions, I just don't get popups saying they can't find any files. Some of the popups still happen but not all of them.
