How to fix "No Such Interface Supported" Error Message in Windows 7?
Hello,
I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate on my Dell laptop. Everything was fine and dandy until yesterday when I uninstalled a bunch of unused programs using Revo Uninstaller and Your Uninstaller. Those 2 programs were deleting registry entries left and right!
Now, whenever I select "Personalize" (by right-clicking on the desktop):
I get this message:
Would a 'Windows Repair' solve this issue? I tried Windows 'System File Checker' but it wasn't able to detect any issues.
Any help would be nice. Thanks.

I have just read that CCleaner may well be able to fix this issue, I would suggest trying it.

Hi,
It was better to backup registry before removing any key by the application that you use, Try to boot from Windows 7 CD and do Windows Repair.

Thanks a lot, guys..
Eddy: Thanks. I thought of going back but I'm better off without those programs I removed :(
Joe: Thanks for the confirmation.. :)
Mark: Thanks. I tried 'scanning' and 'fixing all issues' with CCleaner, but it didn't resolve the problem.
Guess, repairing is the only option..

Thanks again, everyone.
@Alfa: I tried but didn't work :(
@Joe: I had tried SFC earlier and tried again now:
I'll be sure not to use those uninstallers and CCleaner. :(
@jcimarron: Sorry, I wasn't clear. You're right. I meant Repair Install.
Thanks for the repair install link. I have Win 7 Ultimate and am using the same disc image (mounted using PowerISO) to repair install but got stuck here:
The following issues are preventing Windows from upgrading. Cancel the upgrade, complete each task, and then restart the upgrade to continue.
Your current version of Windows is more recent than the version you are trying to upgrade to. Windows cannot complete the upgrade.
Windows needs to be restarted so necessary changes to system files can be made before continuing.
Any ideas, anyone? Thanks again for your time.

@Joe: I had tried SFC earlier and tried again now:
SFC /SCANNOW
Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.
Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.
Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.
I'll be sure not to use those uninstallers and CCleaner. :(

Thanks Thinkpads_User. That's where I'm leaning to.
Did u first try new user account from control panel...the user profile might be corrupted.
Create new user account-control panel - reboot - login under the new account and check.
Reinstall is not required.

Hi all,
I have the exact same issue with rudder2.
My difference I am in an AD invironment, and when I am logged in as standard user I get error "no such interface". When I am as AD admin all is fine.
A repair is not possible since the PC is remote.
