Cannot run some programs such as the update & a live care

My system is vista Home premium. A few weeks ago, he started just with black screen. I tried a few boot IE vista CD things, restoration etc. I discovered that if I used ctrl/alt/del & open the Task Manager, explorer.exe stopped & then re started with new task, the punt & desktop PC appeared. The problems were then internet Explorer wouldn't work, so I disabled add ons & then it worked well (a bit I have since re active).

Now, the MAIN problem is that the system crashes if I try to run windows update, for example. If I try to install an .exe such as norton 360 file. A Live aid that are installed has stopped working & don't restart. If I try to install anything Online it stalls just & stops working. Some games always seem to work so the system seems to not work at least. The boot issue still exists. If I use command promt and type regedit it just stops & beeps! The command prompt screen is then unusable?

If I enter chkdsk it says access denied?

Help & ideas please.

It appears from your description of the symptoms, your computer is badly infected. Search carefully for malicious software using the steps on the below link, not ignoring is not the preparatory work. You may need to first run .exe from Doug Knox fix (which isn't a .exe so you can run it).

  • Cannot run some programs after system restore to remove the virus

    Hello

    Toshiba my duaghter had a nasty virus that pretends to be an antivirus software product, which sneaked in, between the time his default service Norton has expired and I had the time to install Trend.

    Can not remove it using trend, so on the advice of a friend, decided to make a windows system restore to a point before the infection. It worked successfully and the virus has disappeared, but now she can't run some programs, I tried to reinstall Trend, but fails because he says you must first uninstall Norton. But I can't run Norton, or uninstall, and certain folders on C: are no longer accessible.

    I have to do a full restore of the Toshiba System (IE back tofactory settings? This seems a drastic measure, but the issue is beyond my meager knowledge of PC.

    Thank you

    Graeme

    Hey Buddy,

    Hmm... This announcement is a bit confusing... Maybe the programs you want to say were installed after the system restore point, who knows?

    In my opinion you must reset the laptop configuration that you have already written. This will restore the pre-installed Windows version where everything is working correctly and that all the drivers and tools are installed.

    Therefore, you only need the Toshiba Recovery disk and boot from it. This will restore the factory settings.

    What can I do?

    Oren Ben Am Hello,

    Which firewall do you use?

    How could you identify what the firewall prevents the application of updated?

    If you use a third-party firewall, you can disable it and enable the Windows Firewall. It should automatically identify the programs that need to access the Internet and will prompt you for permission.

    Can't wait to hear back on your part.

  • Cannot run Windows programming languages 7.

    Hi all

    "I bought a Dell Inspiron R 15" "laptop a few months ago. It had Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit pre-installed with it. A few weeks after working on it, my user profile got corrupted. I contacted Dell customer service. They told me to re - install Windows.

    My main concern starts here. Since I work on the development of software, I need to run applications of programming like Java, VB, .net, c#, C++. I installed windows 7 Home premium, but while trying to install Java or other programming applications, it reflects a message showing "it is not compatible with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I contacted Dell customer again, they told me to install windows 7 ultimate. I managed and tried to install it. I had two tabs display

    I clicked on x 86, it installed 32-bit. He created a recovery Partition which is more usable. I can't delete this partition. Now, I can't understand this. Since then, Dell new Inspiron R supports windows 7 64 bit, most of the drivers, materials and functions is not woking in the way on 32-bit. Also, I have to run my programming languages.

    Is it possible to run my Antenna on Windows 7 Home premium applications so that, I'd be able to run my other hardware, drivers, and the functions of the keyboard?

  • How to run several programs simultaneously on the same block diagram

    Hi all

    I want to run three instruments simultaneously on the same schema. One is a control position for linear drives, other is an optical micrometer and the third is a digitizer card. When using tabs of the controls, the linear actuator Vi is the only thing that seems to work (confirmation on the front panel) but the optical micrometer show no indication on the front panel, but runs in background. I used a tab control to consume less space on the front panel. Someone can help me solve this problem where I can carry several bolts on a single diagram and could even see on the front panel. I enclose my VI.

    Thanks for the help!

    I can't open your VI, but in general; Either you use a loop with all the instruments in the same loop, or separate loops each with no wires between them that forces the execution order. You have none of this?

    Tab control is purely visual, and has nothing to do with the execution.

  • Cannot install some programs-can't create the output file in the AppData\Local\Temp user account

    When I try to install a program (.exe) it works winzip Self-extractor, which attempts to create a file in the directory Users\ (myusername) \AppData\Local\Temp\setup.exe

    I just installed windows 7 and had to happen one or two times before that, I think, but I re-uploaded the file and I tried again and it ended up working. Now when I try to install this program (Hava), he says that it is unable to create the output file.

    When I try to go to this place it doesn't even have the AppData folder I have to first create this path or is it a problem with the program? Any help is appreciated. Touch Pro

    Well, that's possible. As WinZip SFX has a small option to overwrite without confirmation box.

    You can move forward with delete the file setup.exe from the Temp folder in the sound is no longer used by any program (where its in the Temp folder)

    You can also try now is, since its opening a WinZIP Self Extracting Archive, you can try manually, and manually specify where to extract the files before you click ok.

    Once you do this, just run setup.exe from the specified location.
