Assassin's Creed and Hitman have stopped working, is there a solution?
I have Creed of Assassin's I, II and brotherhood, Hitman: Silent Assassin, Hitman:Blood Money, Hitman:Contracts and the original 47 Hitman:Codename. Now one of the seven will load and read, but it's the only program, the only one that does not appear on the list of installed programs, being the Codename 47.
These games, used to work just fine until Ubisoft has improved the Game launcher to 2.x software and now all my games that are installed have stopped working and fail to finish loading. They claim that the pitcher throws other programs on the PC outside their software. Now none of them work, including other games that are not Ubisoft. I tried CCleaner, uninstall, then reinstall, etc. anything. They seem to have changed some of the files base within the Pro Win7 OS I use. It of very frustrating and lost more time to try to nail down trying to find the changes that have been made. Short of a new Win7Pro facility, which would empty all the software that I installed and if I do that I can as well wipe the entire hard drive, and then start over again, I really don't want to do. I'm afraid that if I buy a new game that uses graphics to high-end of my CPU and GPU capabilities, it does not work either and it will just be wasting my money and time as well. Is there any real help to this other question that the stars from scratch?
I built my own off the shelf components, is a system of Wintel ASUS mother board and video card (ATI 1 GB), Intel processor i7 quad core 950 3.07 GHz, Win7Pro, 6 GB of DDR3 RAM, etc. just a notch below extreme, built when the 950 had just been out for a month or 2. It was and is still, works very well. Somehow the OS files seem to have been changed. All other software such as AutoCAD and other rendering software, works very well.
So I think a Ubisoft launcher feature is supposed to prevent you from having to be online when you play the games?
All of these downloads of steam games or are they a mix of disk and download?
Have you tried disabling your Virus Ainti?
I still don't think that the "launcher" mess with Windows is just a buggy application and is may be in conflict with something else.
You can try running through clean boot to see if there are conflicts.
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
If there is no joy in the light of the foregoing, and the game specific forums (I see there are a lot of entries when you perform a search on the web about the Ubisoft Launcher) do not always provide a fix, I'd be inclined to do a system restore and to uninstall the game and return as it is or wait until Ubisoft unravel the 'Launcher '.
"Ubisoft and Steam do not have the Hitman series.
Quite right - EIDOS
"They really need to regroup."
You're not wrong. Beginning with a focus on customer satisfaction and service rather than deal with the honest customers like the enemy, but unfortunately, Ubisoft is not alone in this attitude, it is pervasive throughout the "industry" of the game.
Another reason for the bad attitude of the suppliers of computer software is the people
the Government doesn't understand computers and let software vendors
away with things than the other mfg cannot when it comes to the marketing of a defective product.
Here in Oz, we can return a store bought game that wreaks havoc on
remove the machine as this game is made to your (not offering is not an alternative to not install the Launcher is an abrogation of our rights), as something that does not work as intended or designed is deemed defective, but dealing with one online
provider as the steam is a minefield with little protection by the law of sustainable consumption.
Games Steam can be a problem. What I hated on steam before getting broadband services (only on 18mos ago) was having to update the game before you play. Even offline.
I was unable to play (purchased on disk) FEAR2 for nine months because of the huge (a little less than 2 GB) patch. When HL2 is released, it took, I don't even remember how long, to be able to play the game for the same reason.
I should have returned FEAR2 (HL2 came with a gpu) but I new that I have to get broadband in the end. so I don't bother.
Steam is fortunately fairly well adjusted these days. As long as you have
Broadband and let the steam do as he wishes on the Steam Client and updates when you start Steam line, and then play games
of steam offline is no problem.
The new kids on the block are still going but one, ' to make the consumer a
Beta-test of Guinea pig while we try to imitate the steam ' phase.
GFWL (not exactly new) is always a big fight that I would be a little further
(in my dreams).
Come EA from what I've read is not much fun for some either.

Original title: can I FIX?
Well, my friend, I think that has a press that has locked his left click on its mobile Gateway (primary)... also as of today the right click on & touchpad no longer responds to commands? Last night @ least right click on, then press the key worked a bit, but today NOTHING. I did research on my laptop and found tips and ways to try and solve this problem. Unfortunately... I need to use the left or right click and the touchpad? ... what a bum - sea... Laughing out loud! So I thought to restore Sysem (startup hoping to repair would help) HA! ... need to left click to activate... OMG! My question is... are there any key that can be used to do what the right, touch pad & clicks left to do? My friend's son Granny and she's really down because she said she hit some buttons @ top? Right now the computer waits for me to "click on restore" Startup Repair, but I can't... R & L clicks and touchpad don't answer cammands... Thnx in advance 4 help
Thnx a lot to the person who helped me with the question WinDefendr & SecEssentls (smile).
Hello
Startup Repair and system restore are two different things.
System Restore is used to put the settings of your machine to a previous point in time before that happen a certain problem. I hope it would work.
Startup Repair is used if your machine does not fully start in Windows.
Make sure that you are not looking to restore to factory settings. Who says back to nine and erases all data from the hard drive.
You can try to connect a USB mouse to use to try of difficulty and derivation for now the Touchpad problem.
See you soon.
PS You can also try hard restart it and see if it changes Mode without failure.
You can work there to do a system restore while in there.

I have a problem with my shift keys; left and right have stopped working.
I have no idea if it's a hardware or software problem.Any type of combination of key or software could disable them or it's a hardware problem?
If so, what should be the fix in both cases. If so...Thanks in advance.
Maybe "StickyKeys" activated? Take a look in Control Panel-> accessibility

3 Toshiba Flashcards started popping up with an error saying they have stopped working - are there flashcards in this machine at all?
4 then, Control Panel / programs and features / turn Windows features on / off - whatever it is, I would like to add, it ends with an error - "an error occurred when installing the sw.
5. in addition, tried to upgrade to the latest Toshiba Bluetooth stack. The installation is never - ending crashes
6. access the hard disk is really slow. Do not know why. Any idea?
In the old notebooks from Toshiba, I would setup just a package of COMMON MODULE, but I can't find something like this for Vista.
Any help on this appreciated. Please, send them to [email protected], too.
Hello Jiri
As a first step, I will confirm what Robin wrote on the package of added value. Back to your problem: no one knows what kind of software you installed and t is possible that now you have some negative influence on the functionality of Flash cards. Please try to reactivate the flash cards. You can do this next start - all programs-Toshiba-Utilities-Restart Flash Cards.
To be honest, after installation of some software there are many issues with your laptop nice Portege and maybe you need to restore the operating system to an earlier time using System Restore option. After having done that, I'm sure that everything will be OK again.

Bookmarks have stopped working in Firefox 41.0.1
Bookmarks have stopped working (i.e. I can't create new ones) in Fx 41.0.1. My old favorites are still there and they still work as expected. In the past, when I created a bookmark (' bookmarks > Bookmark this page') I would get a dialog box so that I could determine whenre the bookmark has been going. Now I get nothing, and I can't find any new bookmark.
I don't know exactly when Fx itself 41.0.1 upgrade, but I first noticed this problem 2-3 days ago.
Hi, it is possible that the update has interfered with one of your extensions - a number you need! So, try Firefox Mode safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:
- Click the menu button
click Help
then select restart with disabled modules.
If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:
- On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
- On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
(you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."
If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
If it's OK in Mode without failure, you will need to temporarily disable all of your extensions one by one until you find the culprit.
When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

How to get help with Add ons and extensions that stop working
I have saved passwords and it has stopped working. It's so hard to get help with Moxilla
rosemarybales said
I still don't know why the extension button passwords saved with the key icon has stopped working.
This button displays the saved passwords in Firefox's built-in password manager, is no separate passwords that record you in Dashlane. Can you save passwords in both places? (Well, I guess you do.)
I have a guess on why it has stopped working. Firefox 40 has some changes to how extensions can work with the user interface, so quite a few extensions that have been more than one year must be updated for Firefox 40. It has been updated on January 10, 2012.
Anyway, the way of 'long' to display the passwords saved in Firefox is through the Options page, the Security Panel, the saved passwords button.
