Download error - cannot download anything on the windows vista computer.
When I try to download anything, it says that Windows cannot find 'C:\Users\Admin\Downloads\shockwave_Installer_Slim.exe '. Then he said, make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again. I hope you can help me.
Original title: download error
Hello
Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.
It seems that you have problems with downloading files on the windows vista computer.
The description of the problem seems a little unclear and I wish I had a better understanding before you start working on it. I would appreciate if you can help me with the following information.
1. what browser you use on the computer?
2. What is the exact full error message?
3. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?
4. deal with this problem if you try to download all files from online?
If you do this in the face of Internet Explorer help, I suggest that you should change the default download location and check if it helps.
Method 1
In internet explorer, you can change the default location.
Here's how:
a. open internet explorer.
b. click on Tools , then select view downloads.
c. downloads for window, click Options.
d. now, enter the default download location and click on the OK button.
Turn on the computer at the beginning of boot and check if the problem persists.
Method 2
Perform a clean boot to see if no third-party service is causing the problem.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: follow step 3 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.

Cannot download anything in vista Home premium
I'm not able to download anything with my vista home premium. I have windows defender and windows firewall. How can I fix this so that I can download the drivers I need.
Hi Stanley,
(1) download the files\drivers which web browser do you use?
(2) you get an error message?
(3) remember you to make changes prior to this problem?
Disable the security software and then check if the problem persists. Follow the steps mentioned in the link below
Disable the antivirus software
If you use a non-Microsoft security software, you can check the documentation provided with the program to achieve this.
Important: Re activate security software once everything is done.
You can activate the port in the Windows Firewall, see the link below

Who would say that your computer is infected by the variant of Sirefef/Zero access, which is unfortunately widespread on internet at this time. http://www.Microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/entry.aspx?name=Win32%2fSirefef
The following is an excerpt of a message by the user of the Forum MS RickCP in another thread. I recommend you follow his suggestions Ref the use of HitmanPro Kickstart - I hope it's available in a trial version:«Please note that your description of the problems of MSE is compatible with the effects of a course by the latest variant hijackware infection (new redesigned dropper) of Win32/Sirefef (aka ZeroAccess) has blocked/disabled. MSE»
Suggest run you later and the latest version (v3.7.6.201) of the HitmanPro.Kickstart which is able to remove this Trojan and automatically perform the repairs for you.
Download BLACL (v3.7.6.201) on a USB stick to clean/empty using a machine known to clean and then run it on the infected computer. Follow the instructions of the tool. A manual of HitmanPro.Kickstart and the FAQ is available here.
Would you suggest that follow the removal/mounting instructions in this thread/postassociates. »I hope this helps. -

I tried to use windows update. Gave me an error code. I tried to use alll the troubleshooting on the microsoft site. nothing seems to work. I disabled anti viruse software, firewalls. My goal is to get the update, so I can get .NET framework and XNA 3.0 Redistributable to work. I've tried manual install for those, but they become download update of this time-out after 5 tries and give up.
When I go to the Download Center, click download links, the pages go dead.
It's like something on my computer is BLOCKING everything Microsoft.
EDIT: I don't know why he put that in windows 7, but its for windows vista.
Sorry, but I have nothing to add here, except for...

CEP Wreaking Havoc on WIN7 - cannot download anything. EXE files
It started yesterday 07/02/16 when I removed a butterfly of the night-balled HP Mini and it turned on. I had a specific goal in mind for this small and snail - like processor. And he began. The machine had not been on since January 2015. So I started by trying to get the Windows updates. That never happened. He just sat there and never offered updates... oh yes except Win10. So I tried. When the downloaded Win10, the virus scan .exe file ran and has highlighted the file in red indicating the file contained a virus and was deleted. So I tried to download the free version of Malwarebytes... same thing. I tried a few other downloads all with the same result. Each executable has a virus and the files have been deleted. Because I tried to install Norton on the machine, I tried with the same result. Finally, on Monday morning, I opened a chat session with Norton. We worked on the machine for 1.5 hours. I finally had installed Norton as the tech put the machine in safe mode, and we used a remote access connection via a USB key file. So I ran a test with him even remotely connected and things well functioned. I said, we are in safe mode, and he said no. I discovered after we disconnected that we were and I was facing the same issue. Unable to download ANY executable as they had all 'so-called' virus. So I tried a cat with MS Windows supports. Technology has given me because I couldn't install the executable of remote connection... same error. I started searching the Web to find that apparently during my year of computers long hibernation, there was a problem with the CEP (File System Center Endpoint Protection. And while the updates were made, I did not have them. I only had the corrupted file that would reject any downloads .exe as malware regardless of origin. So now, here I sit. How can I get the fix for the issue of CEP and get it downloaded on a computer that only allows no downloads? Any site that would allow me to download the right file on a flash drive and install the fix from there? All ideas are appreciated.
Problem solved!
Here's how I did it.
(1) downloaded a free version of Revo Uninstaller on a flash drive.
(2) installed Revo Uninstaller on the HP Mini
(3) rand a Full Scan with Norton. No identified viruses.
4) ran a full (Advanced) Uninstall on Microsoft Security Essentials with Revo Uninstaller
(5) rebooted the machine.
(6) conducted a file download executable .exe
7) worked perfectly!

Hello
Thanks for the reply.
I suggest you to download and install the game in compatibility mode because there may be a software conflict or the game is not compatible with your operating system.
See the following Article in the Microsoft help make older programs compatible with Windows.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/older-programs-compatible-version-Windows
For any future reference.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Program-Compatibility-Assistant-FAQ#1TC=Windows-8
If the problem persists I suggest you contact the developer of the game for extra support because they are the point of contact to better address your concern.
Hope this helps, please get back to us for additional help on Windows. We will be happy to help you.
Thank you.
