I cannot see a post that might assist me.

I have installed and re-installed '9' several times. I install it fully, not keen on Drag To Disc' so I take that out.

Every time I open the progarm to copy a disc, and probably it would have happened whatever feature I wanted, I get a notice to install!!

I do so, install it fully, make sure it is all done , no more request to install. Then it happens again.

When I re-install most it seems to go to the maintiaince/ remove or modify page... it does it's job (again) and I can use it.

My registry has not been interfered with. I just noticed a sonic repairer tool; I think I used it before; I am not sure and anyhow I have just done it again and crossed my fingers.

Previous form suggests it will be OK and deceide to flummox me again.

PS I also need to change my account e-mail address ( not a Yahoo address) how do I do that?

Hello,

If you're getting this strange behavior from the Microsoft Installer, and particularly if you're still getting it despite several install/reinstall cycles, then there's probably something broken in the MS Installer. It would be an idea to download and run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility (MSICUU) available here (click link)  [You might also want to make sure you have the latest version of their installer since it's used by so many other programs.]

Uninstall 9 again, read the Microsoft page carefully and then use the utility to clean up the Roxio entry(ies) and finally reinstall 9.

The sonic repairer tool was written to repair a particular Sonic registry key which gets removed by enthusiastic registry cleaners and completely disables 9. You shouldn't need that utility unless a registry cleaner has disabled your EMC 9.
