• After Windows Recovery virus, all programs, folders, and documents are hidden

  Hey there. I think I just cleaned my old machine to windows XP from a virus apparently known as Windows Recovery using software Malwarebytes' Anti Malware. I have two questions:
  1. How can I be sure that I deleted everything about the virus?
  2. the virus seems to have converted all my documents, files and programs to the State that is 'hidden '. Here is what happened: at his first connection after removing all the stuff found virus, all items in my office were missing from the office, and no program was included in the area of all programs on the start menu. I did a few fishermen and found that all of my programs and documents are in fact still on the computer, but they just seem to be have a "hidden" attribute So I changed my settings folder options to "show the hidden files and folders" and now I see all my old files on my desktop and files, but they are all gray. If I right click on any file or folder, then click Properties, it still shows that specific file as 'hidden '. This attribute at this level then really UN-hides compensation file. How can I apply this to all files and folders instead of each individually?

  In addition, I still don't see any programs in the field of all programs on the start menu. I must go to c:\Program Files and navigate so (unless I have a shortcut on the desktop or the start menu). No idea how to get my programs listed in the programs area all over again?

  Hi Lea4Stas,

  Try the method of register: listed @ http://www.softwaretipsandtricks.com/forum/windows-xp/37769-unable-unhide-see-hidden-folders.html

• All the icons and shortcuts are gone from my computer screen.

  I down loaded a wiget google today and subsequently, I have experienced this problem. All my programs and all shortcuts are availble by Explorer and open the folder deshtop. They work very well, but the computer screen does not display them. When I opened the they seem normal, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with the monitor. When I try to drag or send to, or save, I get a message that says that they cannot be sent to their current location. The computer knows that they are in the file offers / office but don't show them on the screen. I have add / remove programs but no change. I sent a file that was in a different place and it went in the desktop folder but not on the screen. It's like there's a toggle to see the show/don ' t somewhere. There is no corruption in the programs or files. Thank you for any advise you can give.

  Attached to this day! I was able to run the restore and the date prior to the event. Only problem was Norton, I had to uninstall and re-installed but now works perfectly!

• Installed IE 8 on my vista laptop at home and now my Palm desktop computer will not open.

  The office that came with my palm Centro has worked well for a year. I installed IE8, now when I try to open the Palm desktop, that it does not open. I can hotsync via the USB port. Windwoes said there is a problem and it cannot open, but will want to know if there is a solution. Windwoes is not to find a. I tried to go back to a previous restore point, still nothing. I don't have bluetooth on my computer so new desktop 6.2 is not an option. Help please

  Hello geocostello and thank you for posting on the forums...

  You can reinstall the office 4.2 that accompanies your centro via the CD.  (if you have one yet...)  If not, you can go the palm.com and do a search for Desktop Manager 4.2 and download it, then install it.  This should not affect your data.  Before doing so, try to go into Add/Remove programs and uninstall from there Office Manager.  Then re-install the software.  Yet once, it should not affect your data.

  If the software does not uninstall from Add/Remove Programs, you can go to microsoft and download the Microsoft uninstall utility.  This should remove the software and registry entries and allow you to re - install the Desktop manager 4.2

  Let us know what happens...

  Thank you

  Windows 7 Home Edition

  Hi Pete Wiz.

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1: This problem occurs if the current user profile has been accidentally deleted from the system.

  Note: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information on how to back up and restore the registry

  a. log in the system by using an administrative user account other than the user account that is experiencing the problem.

  b. back up the data in the folder of the current user profile if the profile folder still exists and then delete the profile folder. By default, the profile is located in the following location:

  %SystemDrive%\Users\UserName

  c. click Start, type regedit in the search box and press ENTER.

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

  d. Locate the following registry subkey:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

  e. under the ProfileList subkey, delete the subkey named SID.bak.

  Note: SID is a placeholder for the security identifier (SID) of the user account that is experiencing the problem. The SID.bak subkey must contain a ProfileImagePath registry entry that points to the folder of the original profile of the user account that is experiencing the problem.

  f. exit the registry editor.

  g. log off the system.

  h. Journal to log on to the system again.

  Here is an article:

  A temporary profile is loaded after you connect to a Windows Vista-based system

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947242/en-us

  Note: The article also applies to Windows 7.

  Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

   

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

  Let us know if that helps.

• I uninstalled aurora and now all my favorites and passwords are left of firefox 4, how can I recover my bookmarks and passwords

  I uninstalled aurora and now all my favorites and passwords are left of firefox 4, how can I recover my bookmarks and passwords?

  Sorry you have coming.

  See the attached screenshot. If you selected the option to remove my Aurora (nightly minefield, Firefox) the personal data and customizations you deleted all your profiles for each version you have / had installed. You can try to use a program for recovering files, like Recuva, to see what can be salvaged.

  The bookmarks to the file places.sqlite , or among the backup of bookmarks Favorites-aaaa-mm-jj.json files (10 are stored). Regarding your passwords, you need the file signons.sqlite and signons3.txt file.

• Whenever we start to use our computer, the screen goes black and the message 'Auto adjust is in Prgress'. Then, all of our screen is small and all the icons and pages are smaller than before.

  original title: Auto Adjust

  Hello.

  Whenever we start to use our computer, the screen goes black and the message 'Auto adjust is in Prgress'. Then, all of our screen is small and all the icons and pages are smaller than before.

  I tried restoring the system that works and that gets our screen back to normal but every day that this Auto setting is coming and we can't seem to stop it.

  Any help would be appreciated... Thank you

  Try this:

  Go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your laptop computer-graphics/computer card > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

  Then:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-AU/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution

  Change the screen resolution

  Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  See you soon.
