How to remove MultiBrowser in Mountain Lion Mac OS X - browser

I installed MultiBrowser from this location: https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/33861/multibrowser. Now I am trying to remove it from my Macbook. I have Mountain Lion. I deleted the application from /Applications but the icon is still showing in the System Preferences > Other section.

These are "Preference Panes". Only proceed if the application provider did not supply uninstallation instructions.
If installed at the root, you can find them here:
/Library/PreferencePanes
If installed for a particular user, you can find them here (hidden folder):
~/Library/PreferencePanes
Delete the associated .prefPane file and this should remove the offending application pane from System Preferences. You may need to restart or log off/on.
[UPDATE] - You can also right-click (ctrl + click) the icon in System Preferences.

Uninstall file in Start Menu applications list isn't always shown

After installing the application, the installer and uninstaller files are properly saved in the "install application folder" and in the "Start menu application folder" rispectively.
For example:
- "install application folder" = "C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\"
- "Start menu application folder" = "C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\"
Sometimes, though, the uninstaller file is not displayed into the application folder of the Start Menu Installed Applications List (list of installed Applications displayed on the left by pressing the Windows keyboard key).
Unfortunately I can't reproduce the problem. It doesn't appears each time I launch the Installer and I couldn't understand under which circumstances it appears.
Is there a possibility it can be solved by forcing a refresh of the Start Menu Installed Applications List? if this is the case, how can do it?
Thanks in advance to everyone for the possible help
EDIT: no solution but a workaround found here Inno Setup Start menu uninstall shortcut is not shown on Windows 10 2nd answer
Windows 8 and 10 hides shortcuts to uninstallers and help files on purpose, this is by design.
The Windows logo requirements says that you should only provide a single shortcut to your main application in the start menu. Only create multiple shortcuts if you have a suite of applications (like MS Office etc.). These guidelines have been in place for at least 20 years!

Flutter App Running Error: Dart can not be opened, Developer can not be verified after upgrading to Catalina

I was using the latest version of Android Studio IDE for creating flutter apps. But when I upgraded from Mojave to Catalina and tried to open my flutter code on IDE it gave me an error saying:
Dart can not be opened because the Developer can not be verified
What is the reason behind the error and how can I solve the issue?
Do I have to install flutter and relative development tools from scratch again or is there any other way to resolve the issue?
Do this steps and repeat until allow all you need and stop notifications.
Solve for me.
On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click
Security & Privacy, then click General.
Click the lock icon to unlock it, then enter an administrator
name and password.
Select the sources from which you’ll allow software to be
installed: There should be a button that says "Allow anyway". If not
make sure you've cancelled the error dialog.
usually you will not be allowed to install the applications dowloaded form other sources .... you need to first give permissions in the system Preferences
apple-icon on left top corner > System Preferences > click Security & Privacy > then click General... now Click the lock icon to unlock it ...
2.now, you will be shown with below attached image ... click allow anyway ..
now retry installing ... you are good to go...
Disabling entire Gate Keeper is definitely not a good idea as it will result running any type of program on your system.
You can add Dart to the white list by running this in terminal:
sudo spctl --add "Path_to_flutter/bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin/dart"
You might require to reboot the system in order to apply the changes.
There are several other binaries other than Dart that may get blocked as well.
You can run GateKeeper script to fix the issue:
https://github.com/AmirKamali/Flutter_GateKeeper_Fix
I have published an article with more information how to fix this:
https://medium.com/#amir.n3t/how-to-fix-flutter-idevice-id-running-errors-in-mac-osx-catalina-7aa1f89f61aa
You can run this command to allow your mac/apps downloaded from anywhere
sudo spctl --master-disable
So who the hell is an "identified developer" if Google chooses not to be one? Something is wrong with this
i updated mac to Big sur and then got this problem.
Allowing dart in the security and privacy settings and then Deleting ...flutter/bin/cache folder solved it for me.
run flutter doctor in terminal afterwards to reinstall dart SDK
This issue can be resolved by deleting the artefacts directory and running flutter doctor once again - More Info Here
2022 update
The button is now at
 → System Settings → Privacy & Security → Scroll down to Security → Allow anyway

TortoiseSVN missing overlays in win8

I've recently installed a fresh win8 copy. After installing tortoiseSVN, it does recognize the folders as being under version control (the menu items are there), but no overlays on the icons.
I Checked the registry settings as described here: TortoiseSVN icons not showing up under Windows 7
But the first 9 entries are all for tortoiseSVN and there are 4 others, so no problems there.
What could be the problem?
Go to regedit. Find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers.
Add space before folders, example: "1TortoiseNormal" -> " 1TortoiseNormal".
Restart computer.
Works for me.
Go to TortoiseSVN > settings > Icon Overlays > Status cache changed from default to shell.
If the drive A, B or network is used check that drivew
Please try this :
Sometimes you just have to restart Windows (if not already done).
You could also have to do a "Cleanup" (right click, Tortoise SVN shell entry) of your working copy, and to check "Refresh shell overlays" in the window.
Also, please review "Icon overlays" tab of Tortoise settings (right click, Tortoise SVN shell entry, Settings) settings of your tortoise SVN, especially if your working copy is (for example) on amovible or network drive.
In my case, the problem was that I was working on a network drive. By default, Tortoise doesn't show icons on network drives.
To enable the icons on other types of drive, right-click in Windows Explorer and go to:
TortoiseSVN --> Icon Overlays --> Drive Types
This may also solve the problem in other cases, where other drives are in use and not showing icons for you.
you have to do an svn actualization (in my case a fully checkout). just restart the explorer (or computer) after configure the registry did not show the overlay icons in my case
Modifying the registry, tsvn clean up etc did not help anything.
Solved it by killing the process 'TortoiseSVN status cache' in task manager. Icons reappeared one by one after that.
In TSVN settings I've set the Status Cache to default (was None initially), but not sure this had anything to do with it. Also restarted explorer.exe to be sure.
I had an older/non-compatible version (1.6) of TSVN installed before updating to latest (1.8.8). This could have been part of the problem.

tortoise svn folder icons not coming

I have been experiencing a problem with tortoise .
when i checked out the code the tortoise icons usually green or red on the folders are not coming.Any solution???
Thanks in advance.
1 - Check If Your TortoiseSVN Settings are Correct
Right-Click in an SVN Folder >> TortoiseSVN >> Settings
Select Icon Overlays:
1. Status Cache to Default
2. Drive Types: (SELECT) Network Drive, Fixed Drive
2 - Find out if there are too many Icon Sets installed in Windows
Window allows up to 11 IconSets, if other programs like DropBox are installed they will hijack those spots
Since we are working in the registry, be careful not to edit things, unless you are sure!
Run regedit
Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/MICROSOFT/WINDOWS/EXPLORER/ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers
If there are more than 11 Folders, then you have too many IconSets
:: In my case, it was because of DropBox - the folder names were ("DropboxExt1","DropboxExt2") and my Tortoise was named (1TortoiseNormal,2TortoiseModified)--The problem is that Windows reads this and enables them based on alpha numeric order ('"' comes before '1' in the alphanumeric stack)
SOLUTION : If you had the same problem as me, you can simply rename the Dropbox registry listings. I renamed my Dropbox listings from('"DropboxExt1"') to ('X"DropboxExt1"'), just adding an 'X' to the beginning of the registry. >>Restart your machine to see the registry listing take effect.
Try also to repair the installation, if you upgraded from 1.6.8 or 1.6.9. Just re-launch the TortoisSVN installer and choose "Repair". There are known problems with overlay icons and TortoiseSVN upgrades (see this blog post).
If you have checked out your code onto a network, or removable drive, you need to set some preferences to see the icons.
Please refer the following link
http://tortoisesvn.net/node/97. I have also experienced simillar problem and the icon usually starts appearing after two or three reboots.
Also refer the following links

TortoiseSVN icons not showing up under Windows 7
You can go to TortoiseSVN>Settings>Icon Overlays>Status Cache.
If default is selected then change from default to shell. If shell is selected then change it from shell to default. it should fix it.
Maybe it depends on your platform? You need to install 64-bit TortoiseSVN if you want the TortoiseSVN Overlay icons in Windows Explorer, because Windows Explorer is 64-bit on Windows 64-bit.
see http://tortoisesvn.net/faq.html#nomenus
Make sure you have installed the x64 version of TortoiseSVN if you're
using XP or Vista 64-bit. Since the explorer on those OS versions is a
64-bit application, it can not load the 32-bit version of TortoiseSVN.
You can still keep the 32-bit version of TortoiseSVN installed on
those OS versions though: it will show up in the 32-bit applications
file-open/save dialogs of those applications.
In the recent versions of the TortoiseSVN, old _svn folders are deprecated. it's better to rename them to .svn.
attrib -h _svn
rename _svn .svn
attrib +h .svn

Check whether IIS is installed or not?

I am trying to create a Local IIS Website using ASP.NET.
When I click on New -----> Website and select the type as HTTP and from the dialog box if I select the option as LOCAL IIS WEBSITE I am getting a message as "IIS not installed on this computer"
When I checked in the Control Panel---->Add or remove programs ---->Add or remove windows components. The Option Internet Information Service is already checked marked.
But when I click on the Control Panel ---> Administrative Tools, I dont find the option as Internet Information Service.
I also have the root directory as C:\Inetpub\WWWRoot.
And when I give the following command in the VS command Prompt
aspnet_regiis.exe -i
It is giving the message as finished installing ASP.NET
Can any one help me in identifying whether IIS is installed in my system or not?
Please help me out!
go to Start->Run type inetmgr and press OK. If you get an IIS configuration screen. It is installed, otherwise it isn't.
You can also check ControlPanel->Add Remove Programs, Click Add Remove Windows Components and look for IIS in the list of installed components.
EDIT
To Reinstall IIS.
Control Panel -> Add Remove Programs -> Click Add Remove Windows Components
Uncheck IIS box
Click next and follow prompts to UnInstall IIS.
Insert your windows disc into the appropriate drive.
Control Panel -> Add Remove Programs -> Click Add Remove Windows Components
Check IIS box
Click next and follow prompts to Install IIS.
For Windows 7:
Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features On or Off > to turn on IIS click on Check box.
Check
Control Panel --> Administrative Tools --> Services --> IIS Admin

How to remove and reinstall IIS 5.0, 5.1 and 6.0
In the menu, go to RUN > services.msc and hit enter to get the services window and check for the IIS ADMIN service. If it is not present, then reinstall IIS using your windows CD.
The quickest way to check is just to write "inetmgr" at run (By pressing Win + R) as a command, if a manager window is appeared then it's installed otherwise it isn't.
A lot of answers here describe how to manually check if IIS is installed.
One (of many) programmatic ways is to check if the file
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\w3wp.exe
exists, and maybe has a certain minimum version (such as 10.0.0.0 for IIS version 10).
IIS can be installed programmatically using DISM. You can also use DISM to check if IIS is installed, which may be "more correct", but is also more difficult to do than just checking for a file.
WARNING: If possible, do not hard-code the path C:\Windows\System32, especially not within a 32-bit process or installer, as it can be virtualized and mapped to C:\Windows\SysWOW64, which is NOT where IIS is installed (assuming a 64-bit OS). Depending on where you are implementing your check (installer prerequisites, PowerShell, native code, etc.), there are different ways to explicitly access the 64-bit/native system folder.
Background: w3wp.exe is the worker process image of IIS, so if IIS is installed with minimal features, then this file can be expected to exist.
As for version numbers, you can expect the following minimum versions of IIS to be installed in (source):
IIS 10 (>= 10.0.0.0) in Windows Server 2016 or higher and Windows 10 or higher
IIS 8.5 (>= 8.5.0.0) in Windows Server 2012 R2 or higher and Windows 8.1 or higher
http://localhost:80 (specify port configured)
OR
http://localhost (default port)
type above line in your browser you realize IIS installed or not
I simple gave below in all my browsers. I got image IIS7
http://localhost/
Refer this a step by step approach:
http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/365704/Install-IIS-on-Windows
For many users you have to enable the windows feature on then check IIS and then go with RUN followed by searching for inetmgr.
I needed to do this on a server over the CLI, and was able to do so in using powershell wit the following command:
Get-ItemProperty -Path registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\InetStp\ | Select-Object
