Can I uninstall XP SP3 and then use restore the system to an earlier date.

Similar Questions

• On startup, I get the following message: __Error C:\WINDOWS\cleamsat.dll the specified module is not found .__I am unable to restore the system to an earlier date and now everything is real slow loading.

  If anyone can help please let me know. I had a virus recently (antivir solution pro), which is now deleted. The message appeared from this point.

  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.
  There is very little. DLL files that should be loaded from the C:\WINDOWS folder and is not one of them.
  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira
  !, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..
  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.
  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.
  Given that you had or have an infection, followed with this:

  This means that there is a problem with your graphics card. I suggest that to update your Windows and check of course latest service pack installed. Also check Windows problem and Solution Center and see if everything suggested installation listed there. It can make it appear to update your graphic card.

  If this isn't the case, try looking in the card of your gaphic provider or your PC support Web site to update its driver.

• Can restore the computer to an earlier date and now get on the desktop.

  I went to use the computer yesterday and it updated. HP laptop with windows 8.1. Then it says update failed. Today I tried to restore to a different date and it failed. Today, I tried again and came back a month. I only have windows 8 and mechanic system on it. I use to connect remotely to work. Now, when I restart it goes to a system recovery option and I have no date to select.  He asks for recovery disk, but I did not. What are my options

  I had a similar problem. I updated my computer to windows vista 7 and wanted to go back but could not not because vista wasn't a registered earlier version. Then I accidentally deleted my slui and rundll.exe and couldn't get them back because there was no previous version. Given that I have not configured a backup, I couldn't restore the computer to its previous versions or any folder.

  The only way for you to restore is if you had implemented a backup and took the opportunity to finish the backup. The backup must be on an external drive, because when you configure a backup for PC, it requires an external backup. In my case, no backup copy has been implemented. If you remember where the backup was the installation, it is what she wants.

  Since you say that there is no recovery disk, I would contact with via phone, Microsoft to see if you can return to windows 8, 8.1 No.

  As an alternative, if you look at the underside of your laptop, or on the side of your PC, you will find the product code.

  Go to http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only here.

  Download the version of windows you had when the program is in place, insert the product key and just follow the instructions the site to make you say

• I restored the computer to an earlier date and now the password windows 7 won't save us.

  I restored my computer to girls at an earlier date, and now the password windows 7 won't save us. She never changed the password before and now we cannot connect. How to do it please help.

  I restored my computer to girls at an earlier date, and now the password windows 7 won't save us. She never changed the password before and now we cannot connect. How to do it please help.

  This means that a different password was in effect at this point, even if your daughter thinks otherwise. There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:

  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
  • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
  • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
  • Use the password indicator (only works if an indicator was created and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
  • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

  The most important point would be: run a machine without a spare admin account is about as risky to have a house key. Sooner or later, he is at risk for any number of reasons.

• After you download the new version of firefox, I didn't like it and tried to restore my system to an earlier time and version of firefox. Now that firefox does not open, even the old version isn't there more.

  I want to get firefox, keeping all bookmarks.

  Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

  • Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html

  Uninstall your current version of Firefox.

  • Do not remove the data of a personal nature when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.

  Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.

  Your bookmarks and other profile data stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.

• Can I uninstall 4.0 and resume 3.6?

  4.o Firefox does not support some features that I really need (for example Norton safe ID, citicard / discover the virtual account numbers).

  Can I uninstall 4.0 and back using 3.6?
  Thank you.

  Symantec needs update their Firefox Add-ons to make them compatible with Firefox 4. They indicated that, for Norton 360, they plan to release a update of Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early may - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web & docurl = 20100720113635EN & ln = en_US

  I don't know about the time scale for the updates for other Norton products.

  Waiting for the update by Symantec, downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first of all uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option 'remove my Firefox personal data '. If you select this option, it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.

  Then you can install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available to http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your favorite courses, passwords etc.

  I recommend, to avoid possible problems with decommissioning, accessing your profile folder and delete the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Delete these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, check their compatibility and cancel the toolbar customizations.
