I was trying to install Pulse Secure Installer Service and received the ever wonderful:
THE SPECIFIED ACCOUNT ALREADY EXISTS
on both the MSI and EXE versions of their installer on Windows 10.
The solution was to download the Microsoft install cleaner which you can do HERE. This tool will work on Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10. Remember that you MUST run this as an Administrator.
After running this CAB file and clicking the THE PROBLEM IS: INSTALL, the tool listed a large number of programs I had installed including the PULSE INSTALLER, twice. I selected one PULSE INSTALLER and let the tool complete, then ran the tool again and selected the other PULSE INSTALLER. After that the install completed without incident.

I was unable to remove a scanner driver from control panel. Tried everything from registry entry to some tools… last option i was thinking was to reimage my machine. Then I came across this article from the internet and believe me “This is a super utility” as I was able to get rid of unwanted scanner drivers.

WORKED!
Thanks!
Now that pesky “BING TOOL BAR OUT OF DATE” impossible popup should stop. What deceptive old-folks trickery that thing employs. I would be embarrassed to work for BING just for that reason.
