• Windows cannot find C:\Docume~1\owner\Locals~1\Temp\dwm.exe

  I get the following error at startup: Windows cannot find C:\Docume~1\owner\Locals~1\Temp\dwm.exe

  Once I click ok, I get the same error message, but it says it could not load or run it from the registry.

  In addition, I can not get on the internet on my PC. I can access the internet fine on my laptop through y network.

  I read how to solve the error message, but I can't get on the internet to access programs. Suggestions? I'm so frustrated!

  Thanks in advance!  :)

  Steve Winograd's right - no executables are normally launched from the Temp folder where you specify unless the malware put them there.

  Your system is currently or has been infected and perhaps your detection/removal software clean the folder Temp of the suspicious content but this process does not always boot entry that points to the location/suspicious file, so that each reboot (or login), he wants to run it.

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..

  It is easy to get rid of the error message by doing something like disable the startup item in msconfig (if you can still find), but I suggest you fix the problem and difficulty not only the symptom of the problem simply remove the startup message.

  I would recommend also you start to search in the register, unless you have a backup because there is no 'Cancel' or 'quit without saving changes' option in regedit.  If you make a mistake, that's all.
  These ideas relieve 'rapid' and sometimes risky of the symptom, but may not actually solve the problem.  Also, I'd be suspicious of ideas that begin with the words "try."  You don't need to try things, you need to fix things.
  Here are the detailed instructions that protect you and solve your problem in the 'right' way.
  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira

  A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading... ". "or"specific module could not be found"message at startup is usually related to the malware that has been configured to run at startup, but the referenced file has been removed after a malware scan, leaving behind him a startup item or the registry entry pointing to a file that does not exist.
  It might be a removal of malicious software or an application not installed.  The entry may have a curious looking name since it was probably generated at random when the malware was installed. If you search your system for the referenced file, you may not find.
  Windows attempts to load this file but cannot locate because the file has been deleted for most probably during an analysis of the malware. However, an orphaned associate of remainders of startup parameter or registry entry and tells Windows to load the file when you start or connection.
  So you should delete the referenced entry Windows stop trying to load or run the file. It may or may not be included in the registry, but you can find it.  Autoruns (see below) you get the elements no matter where it is.
  If you just locate and uncheck the item in msconfig, which disables the element but does not remove the reference to the element of false starting your computer.   The msconfig program is not a Startup Manager, that's a troubleshooting tool.  Disabling things in msconfig to put an end to the messages and think that your problem is solved is short-sighted and leave behind him a sloppy XP configuration.  Just disable the display of a start-up error message should not count as a 'solution' to the problem.
  If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can find and remove the reference directly from there or remove it using a popular third-party tool called Autoruns.  The problem can always be found in the registry well.
  Before making any changes to your registry by hand or with third-party tools, don't forget to first make a backup of the registry. There is no cancellation or exit without saving the option in regedit.
  Here is a link to a popular registry backup tool:
  http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/ERUNT.html
  You can use Autoruns to find the element of start remains little matter where he's hiding.  Autoruns does not install anything on your computer.  It will display all startup locations where the reference may be then you can turn it off or remove it completely.  Here is the download link for Autoruns:
  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
  Run Autoruns.exe and wait that he at the end of the filling of the list of entries.
  When the Autoruns is finished scanning your system, it will say "Ready" in the lower left corner.  Autoruns can be a little intimidating to first if you have never seen it before because it displays a lot of information.  You are really interested only a few sections.
  The problem is usually to start the system or the user startup entries, then click the connection tab and see if the startup item is there.
  Scroll through the list and look for a boot entry associated files in the error message.
  If you can't find on the connection tab, look in any tab.
  You can also click file, search to search for logon, or any tab for all or part of the name of the element.
  Right-click on the offending entry and choose Remove
  .  If you are not sure what it is, you can simply disable, restart and if the problem is resolved and then remove the offending entry.  If you don't see it in Autoruns, you may edit the registry and remove the item from your startup folder it.  Autoruns shall display the same information however.

• Windows cannot find C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\dwm.exe not __could not load or run C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\dwm.exe specified in the registry___

  Windows XP SP3

  Lift both of these errors at startup. Click on through one, then a second will appear. Click per second startup continues to load windows and the system is functional.  I did some research, seems quite common to have dwm.exe questions, so not sure how I should be. I guess that this is caused by some sort of worm/virus/trojan. Ran anti-virus scan: Panda antivirus pro 2010 found 3 infections but problem still not solved. Next step?

  No simple AV tool and not every doesn't know everything you need to use more than one scanning program in your arsenal of AV.

  In the perfect world, do some exectutables launch of the Documents and Settings folder.

  It seems that despite your Panda AV, your system is always somehow afflicted.

  Sometimes even the 'best' AV tools are unable to clean up the mess of certain conditions or they can't tell if what they discover is a true infection or something you did on purpose so they will leave him alone, and then do you a little housekeeping cleaning by hand.

  Autoruns is the right idea, but first make sure you have something missed Panda, then use Autoruns if you still have the problem.

  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:

  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/

  Autoruns will help you clean up the leftovers, but you have to be as sure as possible that there is no infection rest first.

  Hello

  Normally indicates that you have or have had a virus. Usually programs do not run in the temp folder.

  You can try an online virus scanner to check the virus first. For example:

  ESET: http://www.eset.com/online-scanner

  TrendMicro: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

  Once you are sure that you do not have a virus, you can download and run "Autoruns" from Sysinternals http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

  Download the program, unzip it and run it. After accepting the EULA, it will take time to discover all of your startup items. Go to the bottom of the list and uncheck the item "setings\temp\dwm.exe c:\documents and Settings owner". Autoruns to shut down and restart the PC to see if the error is still in place.

  You can find information on using Autoruns to the same address as above.

  You will need to let us know if this sorts your internet problem.

  There should be no file .exe running from the Temp folder, then why don't you clean up your temporary file using the disk cleanup or CCleaner you can download here:
  http://www.Piriform.com/CCleaner

  CCleaner allows you to manage most of the startup items and also do some other operations oriented cleaning.  Some people will you recommend is not to use the registry functions in CCleaner to avoid these features for now.  I have no problem with it for me, but sometimes it's a contentious issue, I prefer to avoid as much as possible!

  You can uninstall CCleaner later if you don't like it.

  So is looks like your system is currently or has been reached by the malware then do this:

  No matter what you use for protection against malware, perform the following analyses for malware, then correct any problems:

  Download, install, update and do a quick scan with these free malware detection programs (not at the same time):

  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

  SAS will probably report a lot of tracking cookies and you can just let him delete them.

• Startup error message: "Microsoft Mobile PC presentation adaptability Client has stopped working".

  I recently tried to install SP2 to Vista, but it failed. I tried all the resolutions posted, but it is not always correct it. Later, I started my Vista (automatically restored to SP1) and it came with a mistake, "Microsoft Mobile PC presentation adaptability Client has stopped working". I tried searching on the net for similar problems, but I could not find any solution. He comes back every time you start, after that the background, shortcuts and the system tray loaded. This error started showing when I tried to install SP2, but he failed and returned to changes. I think that something could have gone wrong and that's why it shows this message.   Today I tried the system restore to the restore point JUST before I tried to install SP2, but it ALSO failed and brought me back to the State.
  I'm not sure if it's related, but I'm also no longer be able to use Windows Media Center, as every time I start it I immediately receive the error message "Media Center has stopped working".

  Hi zensurferboi,
   
  First, we will check if we get error safe mode, start the computer in Safe Mode reboot and press the F8 key for about four to five times. You'll see the Mode without failure listed in the advanced window options, select Safe Mode, and then press ENTER.
   
  Check if the error mode without failure.
   
  If the startup error message does not appear safe mode, I recommend you to place the computer in a clean boot state, and check if the problem occurs in a clean boot state.
   
  To put the computer in a clean boot state, follow these steps:
   
  Perform a clean boot
   
  Note If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.
   
  a. log in the computer using an account with administrator rights.
   
  b. click Start , type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click continue.
   
  c. under the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the Load Startup items check box.
  (The box use the Boot file is not available.)
   
  d. on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft services check box and then click on disable all.

  Note Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.
   
  e. click OK, and then click restart.
   
  Once the computer restarts, check if you get the error of starting.
   
  Reset the computer to start as usual
   
  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  1. Click Start , type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER.
  2. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click continue.
  3. On the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.
  4. When you are prompted to restart the computer, click restart.

  If you don't receive the start-up error message after placing the computer in a clean boot state, follow the steps below in the link to diagnose the program or service that is causing the problem:
