When I try to open Blackberry Desktop the message I get is that Blackberry Desktop Software has encountered a problem and needs to close. I have a Blackberry Bold 9700 and as a result I cannot sync. Does this mean I need to uninstall and reinstall? If I reinstall will I lose the update that I have on my phone that has changed the interface? Will I have to reinstall that as well?
Thanks for any help or advice you can give me.

I'd say restart the computer first. If it still can't open, then yes uninstall and reinstall the program from

You won't lose any updates or settings already applied to your phone.

It didn't work. I uninstalled and then reinstalled and then uninstalled again and then went in to the program files and deleted everything that had Research in Motion attached to it and then reinstalled and rebooted but no luck. I still get the same message

Sorry to hear that. Sounds like you're having issues with Windows. I forgot to ask what you're using...Win XP, vista, etc. You can try windows updates then reinstall the desktop manager. If that doesn't work, can you get a computer tech to look at this? I'm hoping you wont have to reload windows.

I am running windows XP and have the same problem. I have uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times. If anyone finds a solution I'd sure like to hear it. Thanks.
