  Hi MAMARDA,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Vista answers Forum!

  I would like to ask you a few questions in order to get a better understanding of this issue so that we can better help you.

  (a) what version of Windows 7 use you?

  (b) what is the exact error message you are getting?

  Method 1: You can also try to perform a file system (scan SFC) verification tool. This tool will fix the system files are corrupted.

  Scan SFC enforcement procedure:

  1. click on the Start button

  2. on the Start Menu, click all programs followed by accessories

  3. in the menu accessories, right-click on command line option

  4. in the drop-down menu that appears, click the "Run as Administrator" option

  5. If you have the User Account Control (UAC) enabled, you will be asked permission before the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

  6. in the command prompt window, type: sfc/scannow then press enter

  7. a message is displayed to indicate that "the analysis of the system will start.

  8. be patient because the analysis may take some time

  9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue

  10. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.

  11. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

  Method 2: If this is a recent problem that has developed you can try to perform a system restore and check if it works very well.

  To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start, type system restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

  2. in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next

  3. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next

  4. click on finish

  Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  For more information, please follow the below given link:

  How to repair the operating system and how to restore the configuration of the operating system to an earlier point in time in Windows Vista

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/936212/

  Method 3: you can try to start safe mode and restore the system, if you are unable to do it in normal mode.

  For a safe boot, you can follow the below given steps:

  1. remove all floppy disks, CDs and DVDs from your computer and restart your computer.

  Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the button lock and then click on restart.

  2. do one of the following:

  a. If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

  b. If your computer has multiple operating systems, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.

  When you are in safe mode, follow the steps mentioned above to complete the restore of the system.

  Hope the helps of information.
  Please post back and we do know.

• After installing Win7 x 32 SP1, I can't launch Firefox. Not even in safe mode. I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed the program. Does not start.

  After you have installed SP1 Firefox stop working and Internet Explorer stop working. I can only use Chrome as browser at the moment.

  See:

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up

  One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

  Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

  See:

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/server+not+found
  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/firewalls

  Do a check with some malware malware, analysis of programs on the Windows computer.
  
  You need to scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
  
  Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

• After the update 42, partial load in memory (Task Manager), but the software antivirus keeps thread bound to perform but only loads 2nd & subsequent.

  Manager tasks shows Firefox loaded as a service, but a of threads waiting to complete. There is no application shown in the Task Manager (which seems reasonable that Firefox has not loaded).
  There is no error message. The 'circle of rotation of microsoft"is going for a few seconds, then disappears as if the schedule.
  It happens after 2nd & subsequent charges after reboot. Firefox seems to work the first time after reboot. It happened only after upgrade to 42. Clean installation makes no difference. Chrome works OK
  Worked well up until the 42 update. Tried to do a clean install with the box to inform Mozilla erased.
  Maybe Firefox started using a port that is blocked by the antivirus? I don't get no logging for the virus scanner showing what it to be blocked. A comprehensive analysis reveals nothing.
  Operating system is Windows 10 (64-bit)

  Abandoned trying to actually find what is actually happening. Changed software virus scanner.
  I think (and this is just a guess) is that to integrate with windows update update 42 change the output method to the telemetry file the antivirus does not. It is perhaps that the antivirus cannot manage that file or property, but it does not record the fact, a failure of the antivirus.
  There is a hint of doubt in my mind when an upgrade causes a system that works to fail in a non traceable method.

• Plugin container keeps constantly appearing and disappearing in my task manager, causing the major downturn and preventing loading videos. Help?

  When you go to many websites, including N4G.com and Royalroadl.com, my browser will slow down suddenly, and container plugin firefox will Flash quickly on and off tension in my task manager, too fast to turn it off manually.
  The only way to solve this problem, so far, has been to stop the page from loading before a certain point.

  This also prevents many videos loading and the major slowdown. He has only started to happen after I have updated to the latest version of Firefox, and disabling all plug-ins and extensions did not resolve the issue.

  My current version is 40.0.3.
  Someone knows how to easily return to the most recent version without problems?

  Edit: Both, I found the solution!

  I went into the plug-ins for Firefox, went into the menu Options for the Shockwave Flash plug-in and disabled Protected Mode.

  For some stupid reason, Protected Mode was the thing causing videos blocked and slowdown.

  Spread this solution for anyone with similar problems, please!

• I went from a Win7 32-bit on a 64-bit win7 machine computer. Now, I get "this connection is not approved" any solution? tried everything

  I went from a Win7 32-bit on a 64-bit win7 machine computer. Now, I get "this connection is not approved" on many pages, including support for Mozilla, Yahoo, send a mail to yahoo, etc. The only thing that has changed is my computer. Everything worked on the 32-bit system. I tried DELL-no-help, I tried Norton-no-help - I tried all published recommendations - nothing helped. Can someone give an explanation of how solve this incompatibility (presumed) Win7 64 bit computers? How can I quickly and absolutely get rid of MESSAGES "THIS CONNECTION IS UNTRUSTED"?
  Thanks for ANY help from an expert.

  Right after that I posted this problem it seemed the solution:
  I noticed a pop-up, named "BROWSERSAFEGUARD" who has attempted to set my computer to a "cleaner" for a price. I checked in my installed programs if there was a "Browsersafeguard" and he was there. I uninstalled it, check "incompatible with my system" and my computer turned on like never before. Lightning fast connections and no message more "this connection is not approved. Wow. It took me 7 days to find it. Hope this will help you, too. Send a message to this one to let me know if it solved your problem

  Hi Jlhillhouse,

  It is difficult to solve the problems of the computer without knowing all the details. You should look at the link I sent you and especially to Firefox is slow - how to make it faster. I don't know any known issue as you describe, it's probably a very good bet for a response.

• I loaded a new Firefox because F does not open. This new Firefox does not open. Not at all. The Task Manager shows some charges, but F not open. I rebooted, cleaned the registry, but F does not work.

  F earlier crashed, crashed etc. Now it does not start.
  I checked the virus etc.
  When I started a new load, no question of Add-ons or anything.

• FF 8 causes flash to not however with load after you open the Task Manager and open the plugin container folder, everything works fine

  New upgrade FF and all the flash based video site does not load and makes computer almost hang. After I open the Task Manager and go to the folder where is the plugin container, everything works back. I don't do anything at all after opening the folder.

  What kind of error is it? Its very strange. If all goes well, there is a fix for this.

  Another method would be to uninstall FF and install FF8.0 and not use the upgrade FF7.0. It worked for me.

• I load the Version of Java Console 6.0.2.03 when Firefox says it must be installed, but never stays on my system. I need to reinstall.

  I have Java Console 6.0.01.03 and when I open Firefox it says I can install Version 6.0.02.03 so I say install. So when I turn off my machine and I go to Firefox it asks me to do it again.

  You are 18 updates behind in Java; your version 1.6.0_05. the current version is 1.6.0_23. See updating the guidelines under the heading "Other issues that need your attention".

  Disable Java Quick Starter: (start) > settings > Control Panel > Java, the Java Control Panel will open, click on Advanced tab, expand Miscellaneous, uncheck 'Java Quick Starter', exit Firefox, restart Firefox. If I remember correctly, you must perform it whenever you update Java.
