Cannot run Windows backup because I get an error message.

original title: malfunction backup

cannot back up my files because the backup program continues to show failure. It may take a dvd but when I put in the second, I was a failure. I'm using memorex DVD-R for backup. Save seems to freeze or stop working after an hour or two. I tried to backup and restore at least 5 times in the last 2 days. My last backup was in October 2009. Please send me instructions on how to resolve or work around the problem. Thank you

  • I have Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002 with Service Pack 3 and I tried to run Media Center but I get an error message with ehshell.exe.

    original title: error with ehshell.exe

    I have Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002 with Service Pack 3 and I tried to run Media Center but I get an error message with ehshell.exe. Could you help me?

    This problem exists since the 1st Media Center. SP2 and SP3 had a difficulty, but it is obvious that it doesn't always. The same problem still exists in Vista today with a lot of other carried over from XP. System restore would work, but you do not have any good restore points so reinstall an operating system seems to be your only option.

    You probably don't want to do an OS reinstall you need for Media Center, but since it does not at all, you might want to play then remove the Media Center updates and or SP3 and reinstall them.

  • I just bought Windows 7 upgrade Windows Vista. I get the error message: operation is not supported on this platform. What should I do to get this latest version in my computer?

    The upgrade from Vista to Windows 7

    I just bought Windows 7 upgrade Windows Vista. I get the error message: operation is not supported on this platform. What should I do to get this latest version in my computer?

    Have you tried to do an upgrade installation or a custom installation?  A custom installation requires you to back up your files and settings with Windows Easy Transfer and then reinstall everything after installing the new.  If an update install does not install work, you need to do a custom.

    In addition, a Windows 7 Anytime Upgrade will not work and you get a message from a platform if you have bought a UA and tried to use it with Vista.  Vista upgrade requires a detail, a copy in the Windows 7 box.

  • Windows Mail JPG attachments get the error message "cannot find... .jpg file.

    Recently, I try to open JPG files in Windows Mail and get an error message window that says that "Windows cannot find"filename.jpg"make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again" I can save the JPG file, then open it, but Windows Mail won't open it by simply clicking on the attachment JPG.

    There has been reports of this behavior with only some files (.jpg or .pdf) and the reports of this problem with each attachment after installing IE8.  Frankly, they are quite few and inconsistent and avisnon there is no clear solution.  Try these two steps in this order.

    1. Use this utility to 'fix' to reset the Security http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/949220 settings
    2. Use this utility to re - register a lot of IE http://iefaq.info/index.php?action=artikel&cat=35&id=133&artlang=en important .dll

    There are other actions that must be reported to temporarily fix the problem - move to the location of the internet temportary file, for example.  Another reported a little is to uninstall IE8 and then reinstall it with all the temporarily disabled third-party security software.

    Since you have only this problem with .jpg files, you can try to reset file associations for .jpg.  Open an administrator command prompt (right click on cmd in the start menu and choose "Run as Administrator").  In the administration command prompt window, type the following lines exactly as shown:
    Assoc .jpg = jpegfile

    Assoc .jpeg = jpegfile

    ftype jpegfile=%SystemRoot%\System32\rundll32.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Photo Gallery\PhotoViewer.dll", ImageView_Fullscreen %1

  • Recently I have not been able to burn a CD with Windows Media Player: I get an error message: "Windows Media Player cannot find the file."

    Hello

    I recently haven't been able to burn a CD with Windows Media Player (he worked last week, but not now). I get an error message "Windows Media Player cannot find the file. The link between the library item and its digital media file associated with may be broken. "Try to fix the link or delete the item. There is a web help option which says that to fix a link, you click on the blue icon next to the item, then click "Browse this article. But the only icon I see is a little blue triangle next to individual songs in the library pane or list, there is no icon next to the name of the playlist. Although the click with the right button on the blue triangle gives me a few options, "Browse this point" is not one of them. Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong and how can I sort it please!

  • I have the inability to run Windows Update. I get this error: Code 80070005

    I have the inability to run Windows Update. I get this message: Windows could not search for updates. An error occurred when the new updates for your computer. Error: Code 80070005 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.
    I tried a few patches, but they do not work. Including those of ACCESS DENIED. And another by Kim.
    What's next?

    Hello

    • Have what troubleshooting measures you tried?

    Error code 80070005 means generally that you're not quite allowed to install updates. Access may be denied if you have logged on to the computer as a standard user and this account does not have permission to install updates.

    To resolve the problem follow the steps that are listed in the methods below in the order listed, starting with method 1.

    Method 1:

    Log the computer as an administrator or as a user with administrative rights.

    Method 2:

    One of the most common causes of this error code (access denied) is the Anti Virus and Anti Spyware software running on the computer. You can try to disable them, and then try the updates again.

    Note: Runs the computer without antivirus software or firewall is a potential threat to the computer; don't forget to activate the security software after completing the troubleshooting steps and after you have identified the problem.

    Method 3:

    Try to reset your default security settings.

    Hello

    See the following instructions to Update libraries and solve this problem.

    1. in the file Explorer , select the folder parent of libraries in the left Navigation pane.

    In the right pane click on the right button of the library of Documents, music, photosand videos by default, and select the Remove option. Click Yes to confirm the deletion.

    (Note: this will not affect the folders or files in this library)

    2. in the Navigation to the left side pane, click on the libraries of parent folder and select restore default libraries option.

    This will refresh the default libraries and should solve the problem.

    If you added all files for libraries folders by default, you need to add these records.

    Let us know the results.

  • Windows Media Player 9 Gets the error message - error Http 500

    I HAVE MEDIA PLAYER INSTALLED #9.   I HAVE WINDOWS 'XP', SERVICE PACK #3.   I CANNOT NOW RAISE ' ARCHIVE. NET'.   ALL THAT I GET IS "ERROR MESSAGE ' HTTP500."  That's happened?

    Never use caps - its considered bad manners, IE. you're shouting.

    HTTP 500 is unfortunately for you, a generic error that appears when the program you are using (WMP 9 in your case) cannot think of anything else to report.

    Just to complicate things a bit more, it is not a fault on your machine, but comes rather from the server and cannot be corrected on this machine.

    However, the upgrading to WMP10 or 11 and see if the same thing happens.

    See you soon,.
