• My Administrative Tools folder is empty, what happened

  I don't know when this happened. My computer is slow, so I was going to defragment, nothing in the folder.

  Disk Defragmenter is not in the Administrative Tools folder.

  http://www.pchelpforum.com/Windows-tutorials/106801-how-defragment-your-hard-drive-Windows-Vista-Windows-7-a.html

  Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point. Run Disk Defragmenter.

  Using the system restore option is most appropriate when your system is slow and you need to increase the free disk space on your C partition. If you have errors that could be solved by using the system restore to your system settings back to before the error occurred initially do not use this option.

  If more than one person uses the computer and they have their own user log you need to run Disk Cleanup in each user profile that you want to delete all the unwanted files.

  A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner. Delete System Restore points may be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments.

  cCleaner also comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.

• Admin tools folder is empty.

  A few months ago, I managed to get a rogue virus on my computer hard drive. Ive tried a few things so far but without success.

  Ive connected the antivirus avg, including a spyware remover, this had detected a little, but after this all my folders and files were still marked as hidden.
  After looking on these forums I have found someone who has a problem like I have, but they managed to get it fixed.
  From reading this thread, I've run rkill.exe and unhide.exe. After that, my folder in the start menu have returned but they all don't empty no icons in them.
  Now, I was about to use the recovery disk of windows xp sp3 for the first time, but when I took the package the disc is warped and distorted and will not read.
  Anyone have an idea how I can get the admin tools back? There was something changed in the parameter in there which prevents me from going to the line.
  My features are-
  Dual AMD Athlon 64 X 2
  Core Processor 6000 + 3.10 GHz
  2.00 GB of RAM
  Any info would be greatly appreciated thank you.
  Dave.

• The folder administrative tools devoid of orders for the print spooler problem that is stopped.

  I could not install my printer because the spooler is stopped.  According to Windows help, the problem can be solved by administrative tools.  But the biggest problem is: the Administrative Tools folder contains anything other than "Windows SuperShell Modules.  The Service order through which is accessible the print spooler service is NOT there.  Is there another way I can make the spooler running?

  Hi francisco a.sanchez,.

  I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

  The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

• How to enable administrative tools that has mysteriously disabled?

  Original title: administrative tools

  All items in administrative tools have mysteriously been disabled. How can I activate all? If all goes well, not one at a time! Y at - it a "Default Setting" routine, or I have to allow each element separately?

  Thank you

  Joe Killmann

  What does "disabled" for you?

  Are mysteriously missing or mysteriously disabled administrative tools?

  If you go into Control Panel, completely missing the Tools folder administration, or is there but empty?

  What do you think has happened since the last time things worked correctly?

  I find that Microsoft hired 'expert' technician support ideas that can help you from:

  "Method 1", to avoid the administrative tools shortcuts in the Panel that you copy and paste.  Administration tools belong in the Administrative Tools folder - not in the control panel.

  Regarding the "method 2", you don't describe symptoms compatible with a need to run sfc/scannow.

  In addition, the System File Checker don't know or don't care shortcuts to administration tools (or indeed all the shortcuts) or whether they are enabled or not.  It's not what they did System File Checker, this isn't how it works and it's not what it is for.

  It's just another committed Microsoft Support Engineer 'expert' wild goose chase.  Suggesting he looks like to say "I don't know what the problem is or how to fix it.

  But maybe you'll get lucky.

• Menu administration tools is missing from the Start Menu of Vista

  I don't know how or when that happened, but today when I opened the whole start, the administration tools option menu was missing.  I went into the folder program Data\Microsoft\Windows\Start Démarrer\Programmes and the Administrative Tools folder was there with all its contents. Yet it does not appear when you click on the Start button.  Any ideas what the cause and healing can be?

• The Start Menu program folder is empty

  I was trying to organize my folders in the program file in the start menu. In my effort to move some of the files, a new appeared folder also named 'Programmes', which seemed to be a duplicate in the program file, so I removed it. When I did the menu is empty, so I tried to restore it from the Recycle Bin. He restored some of the files and folders, but none that were originally on the computer, such as the Solitaire and file administration tools. Essentially, I want to clean the computer and reinstall all programs and files that have been on it the day I bought the computer. However, I don't have a CD to do this.

  How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Error in mmcbase. DLL when opening administrative tools

  I get the following error message when you try to start a number of administrative tools: -.

  "The procedure entry point? PickIconDlg@@YGHPAUHWND__@@PAGIPAH@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library mmcbase. "DLL"

  Title of the message box is "mmc.exe - Entry Point not found".

  What can I do to fix this?

  I downloaded my SP3 mmc.exe on my SkyDrive and you can download it from this link:

  http://CID-6a7e789cab1d6f39.Office.live.com/Browse.aspx/.documents?UC=0&WA=wsignin1.0&SA=800701983

  If there is a problem downloading, let me know because I'm not too sure about this thing of SkyDrive yet.  It appears, it will warn you about a risk when downloading executables, but you can trust me...

  You need to replace c:\windows\system32\mmc.exe

  Make a copy of your current mmc.exe file somewhere a course, just in case you need to put it back.  If something went wrong with your SP3 update, you have still some other discoveries later.

  It's no surprise that run sfc/scannow was no difference because sfc/scannow concerns only on files in this folder:

  %SystemRoot%\System32\Dllcache

  Running sfc/scannow is a waste of time for system problems (unless you want to check your dllcache folder) as it will not update/replace any file (s) in another system folder (this is why I will never even move for the problems of the system).

  Let's see how it works.

  Do, or do not. There is no test.
