Backup of Windows 7 - change the settings - works does not as expected

I'm trying to configure the backup of Windows 7 by using the "Change settings" option, but when I click on the link, all I get is a the Explorer window showing the contents of c:\Windows\System32

Same thing if I click on the link 'manage space '.

What I am doing wrong? or is it a mistake?

Had the same prob, winlocker and shredder in the context menu, uninstalled winlocker and voila, backup now works.
So, try to uninstall the software that hangs in the context menu (the menu "right click") and see if it works. Not interested in why at that time [is really starting to enjoy my Kubuntu box]

    Hello

    Windows Defender is an antispyware software, not an Antivirus.

    If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

    There is nothing to worry.

    Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

    If you are using one of the above AntiVirus programs, this Information from David O - Support Engineer shows you how to manually enable Windows Defender (disregard information from uninstalling; not possible in Vista):

    "Go to start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Look for Windows Defender.

    Right click and select Properties , ensure that Startup Type is automatic.

    Once modified, click apply and OK.

    Quit and restart your computer. Check the back take the same path to confirm that Windows Defender has started"

    .

    And for now, change startup Vista programs without using Defender, use one of these methods:

  • How can I get rid of the Yahoo homepage? Changing the home page does not work.

    A week or two before Yahoo started coming as my home page. No matter how many times I change back to Bing, whenever I have rise of Firefox, there is Yahoo as homepage. Does not he back on Bing and clicking ok. I'm a little frustrated by that. How can I get rid of Yahoo to come as my home page when I have asked yet for her?

    Thank you for your time and your consideration.

    Sincerely,
    cbrsarah

    Change the home page when you check only in "Options > general > Startup" or is it a problem with the page that opens when you launch Firefox?
    For the latter, you can check the field target in the Firefox desktop shortcut.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

    Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
    Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

    If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement.

    In all likelihood, you are infected with malware.

    You need an Antivirus.

    It works just not by mistake, or you have not installed?

    If you have not installed, why don't download you and install Microsoft Security Essentials, which is free, or the free version of Avast Antivirus to keep your camera protected?

    I have a Canon Pixma MP560 connected to a MacBook Pro with OS 10.9.5 which is wire connected to the network via a modem from Time Warner Arris TG862 to a Dell Latitude E6410 laptop computer and a desktop computer, Lenovo, which have two Windows 7. The printer is the USB cable connected to the MacBook and works very well. On the Mac in System Preferences > sharing, printer sharing is enabled, the MP560 put highlight and users > 'everyone can print. " and the system of preferences > printers, Scanners & "share this printer on the network" is selected. On the Lenovo and Dell, I installed Hello, and both can 'see' the MP560 and file > print on both, the printer is recognized and activated. BUT she shoots a white sheet; the text is not printed. Obviously there is something that I did not, any box I've unchecked. I'd appreciate any ideas! Thank you.

    A few days after posting here, I asked this question on another Canon Website and learned that in similar circumstances to mine described here, Canon recommends that the MP560 "be connected to your Windows computer then shared to your Macintosh', rather than, as in my case, saw the MP560 connected to the Mac and then sharing with Windows computers.
