Microsoft Windows Vista (64-bit)

I am  trying to upgrade from Windows Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 (64 bit) on an older machine.  In order for the installation to go forward, I am getting the message that I need to uninstall the following programs: Business Manager and Anti-Malware Core.  I have looked under "all programs" and also under "programs" on my C: drive, but I do not find any progams with these names.

 

Can someone tell me what I should be looking for and where/how I go about uninstalling these files?

 

I am a novice and would appreciate your help in simple language. Thank you very much!

What you have is a rogue malware. Get the free Malwarebytes and run a scan.  During the install you will see an already checkmarked box (trial) toggled. Just uncheck that.

I was skeptical, but this appears to have worked!  You are AWESOME!!!  Now I just have to figure out how to retrieve the February e-mail in Outlook 2016 that has the product key. (Have tried "retrieving deleted e-mail" with no luck--now that the installation problem is solved, I'm hoping to hear from Micosoft.)
