How to resolve 'Object Already Exists' error when trying to install a software

You tried to install a software you have never installed on your
system before, instead of installing smoothly, it showed you an error
saying "Object Already Exists" or you uninstalled a software and try
installing it again and it showed the same error even after restarting
your computer to ensure the uninstallation process was complete and
your computer is clean of any leftover file from the software which
was uninstalled.

Well, I encountered same problem, got it resolved and thought I should share.

Resolving this issue is as easy as uninstalling security update KB2918614.
But wait... security update? Yeah, what do I care, I feel secured and
benefitted more when this update is off my system.
Thanks for reading.

HOW TO WRITE, COMPILE AND RUN C++ CODE ON LINUX KALI

This article is for hackers who want to develop a c++ program on Kali Linux without having to install any additional software. While some would tell you that you need to install an additional software or a compiler in order to develop a simple program in c++ on Kali Linux, I am going to show you how to develop a c++ program on this distro right out of box. Your Linux Kali comes pre-installed with a c++ compiler called g++ so we are going to write a C++ hello word code and compile it with this compiler. Before we get started, first open up terminal and run to verify if this compiler is installed on you machine: g++ -v if the compiler is pre-installed, you should get the version information of the compiler, otherwise, you should get an error. Now let's jump right in. In your terminal window, type in: nano MyCpp.cpp to create a c++ file and lunch it in nano editor for editing. When nano opens, type in the following c++ code and press Ctrl+x then y and then R...

LOAN MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (My Project Idea)

There are many companies that specializes on giving loan to people; they make their profits by collecting interest on any money they lend out, and before a loan can be given to any customer, the customer must provide a collateral and some details such as: contact details and a reference/guarantor. When the loan is finally given to the customer, they charge interest based on the the amount given to the customer for a given period of time which could be daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. For example, a company could be collecting interest based on a particular amount for a given period of time like: $200,000 loan would have an interest tag of $2,000 per month until the money is returned, and $100,000 would have an interest of $1,000 per month until the money is returned. In addition, the customers need to know when the time for them to pay their interest comes e.g. at the end of the month or the timing model with which the calculation is being made. Usua...

How to execute eject command on an ATM Machine using CoreXfs lib on .NET

In this tutorial, I'm going to demonstrate how to run an eject command on an ATM using CoreXfs, a library I developed. You can download the library from here and follow up with tutorial. First we need to add reference to the downloaded dll. Screen One Once the reference to the dll has been added, you can proceed to coding the application. What I did in the screen below is very simple, I opened the device on the atm using it's logical name so that I can pass in commands. Screen Two So, that's it. thanks for dropping by. You can watch the video below to see how I coded it. Note that this code can only run on an ATM machine. NCR, WINCOR, DIEBOLD, HYOSUNG
