Whenever I start my computer, I get the message: "this file doesn't have a program associated with to perform this action...". "for my external drives. I use these daily backup USB drives. It seems that the backup will run, if I acknowledge this message by clicking OK. If this is not the case - it won't. Why is that happening and how can I solve this problem?
You can repair the associations used to readers. One of my fellow MVPS, Shawn (no relationship lol) has default binding settings in his site here:
http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html
Just scroll down to find the link of 'reader', click it, and launches the link. You can do the same thing with "folder" and "directory" to be thorough.

I play games online and have recently my hacked account. Malwarebytes antivirus I've done, I ran the scan we found several infected files that have been processed and removed. I then scanned by using the onecare Center and she always found 7 infected files 5 threats that all listed as Trojans java program errors before the end. I guess my real question is is this a key logger any?, how can I remove the dam thing, or is just a case of restart and reinstall vista from scratch?

Why Apple does not provide a 10W for I pad air 2 charger when the barn of the computer and hundreds of people on the web say that the 10 W does not work and it takes a 12 W charger. Burning of the computer told me that Apple has changed their software on the iPad and now requires a 12 W charger.
So you're claiming Apple is selling iPads with a charger that doesn't work?
A charger 10W works perfectly well. A 12W charger can be slightly faster to load under certain conditions.

Files adjusted in Lightroom transfer to another computer if you need to reload the image files?
I'm used to make adjustments in Camera RAW and copy the image files for use on multiple workstations. In this case, my settings go with the image file. If I do my settings using Lightroom and move the image files to another computer I'll lose these adjustments? I wonder if I invest all my time adjustment using Lightroom and my computer freezes I'll lose these adjustments even if I am backing up my files to an external drive.
You wrote: "if I do my settings using Lightroom and move the image files to another computer I lose these adaptations?
Yes, you will lose them unless you save in xmp. You're saving xmp is pressing the CTRL / Cmd + letter "S" or
(a) in the library Module, you'll > metadata > save metadata to file, or
(b) in the develop Module, you'll > Photo > save metadata to file.
Without
, Lr writes the changes to the catalog only. And, if you transfer pictures without the catalog to another computer your changes will be lost on the second computer. By
an xmp file will be created that stores changes. In the case of a DNG format changes are not written in Xmp, but in the file header - same effect. Note, however, that not everything can be stored in xmp files. For example, collections, stacking are stored in the catalog only.
This is probably because the record to xmp has been created to allow adjustment of Lr can be accessed in other Adobe products (for example, bridge). Naturally, only those "features" should be written in xmp that the other program can display.

I'm transferring my files to an HP laptop to a Dell because the crushed HP desktop computer. I installed Firefox 8 in the Dell computer (I got the Firefox 5 - I believe - in the HP). I'm looking for the old bookmarks file in the old computer, but I can't find them. Where are they? I'll appreciate your help because I had a very good collection of bookmarks. Unfortunately I didn't save them from time to time.
Well, you were able to recover your files. I don't know where you have saved your files, but you can use the search function and search your favorites using this search term "bookmark *.» *«. It should be very probably a JSON extension file.
Once you find the file, use this link to help restore backups.
I hope this helps.

I'm hoping to get a solution to a frustrating situation
You need Camera Raw version 9.0 for the D7200, so you can install it for CS6. However, you need LR 6 to work with these files, unless convert you them to DNG LR4 to open either with ACR 9.0 by bridge or by the free dng converter.

I have been in contact with Avast and they got my antivirus works then it has eliminated some of the infected files, but has done some damage to my XP system. Now, as mentioned, I can do things that my previous question. I can't use my cd to repair XP due to a prompt to say that my laptop is a version higher than the cd update...
Back to the drawing board. Any advice? An Apple MacPro is perhaps in my near future...Thanks to all of you who have read my problems.
Well, that would be good... If your system has installed Service Pack 3 (you did not) and your XP installation CD has an older PC, you probably want to use your old CD to repair your current system, would you? Does this sound like your situation?
Unless you have created an installation CD of new/updated XP with SP3 on it yourself, it is unlikely for most people to have such a thing. You can certainly use your old XP CD to create a new installation CD of XP that has SP3 on it, but you can do it later (this is a fun project).
So far things are working perfectly!
Avast! sometimes has a bad habit of quarantine (effectively Delete) critical XP system files... This is not sound like the problem with your automatic updates, but it would be nice to let some other scanners to look at your system (Avast! don't know everything).
Since you seem to have had some kind of infection of the system, I suggest you do the following tests in addition to your Avast! and THEN solve any problems the scans by operating clean.
Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/They can be uninstalled later if you wish. -

Hello
Think video drivers especially if it may be others. Refer to the section of driver in my generic bluescreen
methods of troubleshooting below. BIOS, low and antispyway/antivirus/security chipset drivers
programs may also cause this. Check the resolution of problems and when you get to the section driver view
for generic methods in the next message and then back to the if necessary troubleshooting tool.BCCode: D1 0x000000D1
Cause
A driver tried to access a pageable (or that is completely invalid) address while the IRQL was too high.
This bug check is usually caused by drivers who used a wrong address.
If the first parameter has the same value as the fourth parameter, and the third parameter indicates a runtime operation, this bug check was probably caused by a driver who was trying to run code when the code itself has been paginated outside. The possible causes for the error page are:
- The function was marked as pageable and was operating at an IRQL higher (including obtaining a lock).
- The function call was made to a function in another pilot, and that this driver has been unloaded.
- The function was called by using a function pointer that was an invalid pointer.

Change the programs that Windows uses by default
Change default programs using Set Program Access and computer defaultsIf the problem persists, I recommend you to try the steps in the following Microsoft article.
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.
