Chinese search program in my startup items list + weird symbols. Someone tell me what they are?
I'm running Windows XP in a machine virtual parallels. I ran msconfig and found strange items in my startup items.
It looks like Chinese script (sort of) or a language unknown to symbol. I unchecked in the startup list and reboot I got the message (resembling a key symbol) is not found. Again I ran msconfig and recheckedthe points. Upon restarting, I got an error not found a (followed by a black solid circle) as a list bullet
I returned to a previous snapshot and it's still there. I post a .gif image if possible. Does anyone have an idea what this kind of thing? It is part of the virtual machine programs?
Hi XTOMX,.
It seems that your computer is infected with spyware or malware.
(a) I recommend you to run a scan for viruses online from the link below. If you have antivirus software installed on your computer, please install the latest update of the software to make it work properly.

One day, when I opened ff all the Add-ons disappeared. I uninstalled ff, and re-installed. I installed the beta version 4. I uninstalled some of the Add-ons and re-installed them... nothing doesn't make a difference. I tried to remove the extension configuration files in the case where they were corrupt (according to the support page)... no help. I'm using Chrome right now but I want my firefox back, I miss so much! Can someone help me?
Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created if necessary.
See "extension corrupted files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see extensions disabled, is not compatible, in "tools > Modules > Extensions ' then click on the 'Find updates' button (in Firefox 4: right click on the extension-> 'Find updates') to do a compatibility check.

Where in addition to msconfig startup items can be reactivated to?
My Samsung RV510 laptop running 64-bit MS7HP.
He always has a certain unwanted started processes that are disabled in msconfig. And some that are not yet listed in msconfig.
Where can you find where they are controlled?
To identify what loads when you start using Autoruns (freeware from Microsoft).
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902With Autoruns, you can deselect an item which disables startup, or you can click with the right button on an item, then remove it. If you clear the check box that you can check back for re - activate the element. It is an approach much safer than editing the registry and better than using msconfig.
A useful feature of the program is that you can click with the right button on an item and select search online to get information about the selected item.

I remember that (in the era OS9) Mac could be started without loading/opening the startup items (in the list defined by the user) by pressing a combination of keys at startup.
Every morning my Mac starts automatically with the main programs I use during the day (Mail, Safari, Soho, Photoshop, Agenda, Contacts etc.).
Sometimes, when I closed the system overnight and I me remember I forgot to send a mail to the beginning-upI must wait until the Mac has traveled the entire procedure once again, while I only need mail for a few minutes.
Is there a key combination that takes care of jump startup items.
I couldn't find one in all sorts of help files and apple-docs.
I read somewhere that the shift would work, but try this, gave me a (very slow) progress at the start bar.
It took Mac about 10-15 minutes to run through the starting procedure; not exactly what I was looking for.
In addition, the iMac feels slow after this last 'experience '.
I don't think that there is a way to do it quite the way you want to, just for a start:
Automatically re - open windows and applications, as well as documents on your Mac - Apple Support
Now the SHIFT key at startup under OS x starts in Mode safe mode, which disables certain features. He also manages a directory check, that's why it took so long to start.
Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning (formerly: what is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?) (Mac OS X)) - http://support.apple.com/HT201262 - "You can use safe mode to help you solve any problems that might keep your Mac to boot completely."
Secure boot takes longer than normal startup - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1884 is no longer available

MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid 2010) OPERATING SYSTEM OS X El Capitan (Version 10.11.2) Processor Intel Core i7 2.66 GHz Memory 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 Startup disk Macintosh HD Graphics Intel HD Graphics 288 MB The past several times I completely stopped my MacBook Pro and booted back up Xcode is the first thing to open, and it opens a window, I've never seen before called 'ICloudSetupView.strings '.
I went to check if Xcode is checked as a startup item (I usually put off because I do not often use XCode) and Xcode is not even on my list of items that opens automatically when I boot.
HOWEVER, there is a new startup item called "ICloudSetupView.strings" that has a "sort" of "Strings File".
I traced the file in its location and found several others with the timestamp date same creation and now I'm worried.
The path to the file is:
System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/FinderKit.Framework/versions/A/Resources/SK. LP roj/ICloudSetupView.strings
The file has only the following 2 lines of code (technically 1 with overflow) that you can see in the image:
bplist00 "_uHD " Driveo-7F-8GX.title_H4f-Te-Tzu.title\iCloud
3 @
A screenshot of the Xcode file that opens and my preferences of start programme is attached.
I'm quite worried about it, especially because it IS NOT defined as part of open automatically but it is.
I searched online and found no something like this.
Anyone know what it is?
Or what the code does?
Is this a virus or spyware?
It is not spyware. Simply remove it from your login items.

How to stop the Magnifier program activation at startup
original title: I want to delete a "program".
Forgive me for the use of terms laymans.
Today, I see that on a user account Magnifier is activated at startup (log - on). I don't know how to make this stop. I tried to do something and got a message saying "disable permissions that inherits. I have some research here and "done something" according to a help page for Windows XP. I probably did more harm than good.
I would like to delete the program, but it is not listed in Add/REMOVE programs (or is to REMOVE/CHANGE).
Should I just delete the user account and start over?
In addition, it is a fact that Vista does not automatically like XP restore points don't? Under Vista you must manually perform a restore point? In other words, on the XP computer I go to system restore and try to fix this mess. On Vista, I have found that "system restore." I have found where it is said today to a restore point, can not choose 3 days ago... because I have no previous restore points. I so widows updates
We just got this PC and I am trying to set up for the family.
Thank you.
Go to start / Control Panel / ease of Access / facilitate the expect to see / and uncheck the box to turn on the Magnifier. If this resolves the problem in this account, go to start / search box and type msconfig.exe and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears. Go to the starup tab and see if something related to ease of access or your magnifying glass is included - if so, uncheck the box to prevent it from running at startup and that should fix the problem. If you can't find any such program, go to the services tab and look for the same thing. If you uncheck the box, so it does not start at startup and that should fix the problem. Here is an article on how to disable the Vista Magnifier that should work in the world and for all accounts: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/125037-magnifier-turn-off.html. I suspect that this will do the trick.
If none of these options works, you can always consider the account as a corrupt user profile and fix it usinghttp://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.

Like XP, Vista DO restore points do auto - there just need to be told to do. http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/169523-system-restore-task-change-automatic-restore-point-schedule.html orhttp://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/change-how-often-system-restore-creates-restore-points-in-windows-vista/ (this second one is a little easier to follow).
To find the system restore, go to start / Control Panel / backup and Restore Center / and to the left are two options - one to do a system restore and the other to create a restore point or change the restore point settings.
I hope this helps.
