Hi,

When trying to uninstall or repair the software of my wireless adapter I get the message:

Errors detected during the installation

"Error [00000524] : The specified account already exists."

What does it mean? How can I fix this?

Please help me!

Thanks

Hello there Carlos A.,

Thank you for asking, yes the issue has been resolved. I guess the error was referring to my personal configurations for this device instead of my "account".

I just uninstalled all the controllers from my notebook and reinstalled the recommended one and, voilà.

Thanks and kind regards,

Fernando Vacaflor
