computer may have been hacked. I have 2 eponymous profiles and one is status = backup

I tried to use the following text:

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/555473

The problem is when I search for the profile I want to copy, there are 2 profiles with the same name. We have the following text:

Size = 24 MB Type = Local status = modified backup = 1/17 (several days ago)

The other reads as follows:

Size = 4 MB Type = Local status = changed Temp = 1/20 (current date)

When I created a new Admin profile and tried to copy the profile (24 MB) more GREAT in the new Admin profile, I get an error of copy... something to do with the cyclic redundancy check.

While I would not lose the files on my machine, if I have to I will eradicate the disk and reinstall everything... even though I would have preferred to be able to get the largest profile off backup status so I can get it all back.

Help?

    I have an iPad 2 and one row of keys just stopped working.  I tried to force a restart and it has not fixed the problem. Any ideas?

    If you rotate the camera in landscape mode, change the key group that will not work, in correspondence to the East of the screen does not not in portrait mode? If so, then it could very well be a hardware error. If the force restart did not work, your next troubleshooting steps would restore backup, restore to factory.

  • unknown user may have reset my administrator and password of the user access.

    Woke up at 3:00 to hear the computer by clicking on, running 2 programs, one was Majic Jack the other did not. went to user accounts to search for an unknown user. Remove the user, VRI.net or something like that, but the first google
    He and found to be a developer software any. restarted after 55 keep me informed but wouldn't show it to them. I also changed the Welcome screen options, then after reboot shows my user name, but won't accept my password. Can it be delivered starting CMD line in mode sans-echec? and more importantly, how to prevent this in the future?

    Whenever someone thinks that their computer has been compromised, I suggest you have a local professional come on site to diagnose and repair. Respectfully, a regular user of the end won't know what to look for and how to secure the computer correctly.

    As for your password:

    If you have forgotten your password, if you have another user who has administrative privileges account you can log in to that account and change the password of your account of origin of the user accounts applet in Control Panel. If you do not have another account like this set upwards or that you do not have the password which you will need to log on to the built-in Administrator account. In XP Home, start the computer in Mode safe. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. This will put you in the right menu. Navigate using your arrow up; the mouse does not work here. Once in safe mode, you will see the normally hidden administrator account. The default password is white.

    In XP Pro, you don't need to go to Safe Mode. In the home screen, do Ctrl-Alt-Del twice to get the classic Windows logon box. Type in "Administrator" and the password that you assigned when you set up Windows.

    If you reset the password of the account administrator integrated into house or have Pro and don't remember the password, use NTpasswd to change the password of the built-in to a white administrator account. Download the bootable CD .iso image file, burn with third-party burning software such as free ImgBurn , Nero or Roxio. Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Start with the media that you have created. You need to maybe change the boot order in the BIOS or obtain a menu of boot command temporary with the pressure of a special key. NTpasswd will run. Follow the instructions carefully.

    http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/

    Then, go to the user accounts applet in Control Panel and set passwords that you remember and other changes. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • can't find my windows utitity cleaner may have deleted by accident and can't get it back

    have tried to uninstall microsoft silverlight, but not something on the patch package could not be opened. tried to install cannot install updates. was looking for utility cleaning to correct the problem that is not found. lost don't know what to do now

    It's too bad that we don't know anything about your system.

    It is also unknown what ' could not something about the patch package could not be opened "means.

    Why do you think that you need to uninstall Silverlight?

    You use Add/Remove programs to uninstall Silverlight?

    Of course it must uninstall very well if there is not another problem.

    When you uninstall Silverlight from Add/Remove Programs, it starts with note event as a present to the Event Viewer Application log:

    Event type: Information
    Event source: MsiInstaller
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 1040

    Description:
    Begins a transaction of Windows Installer: {89F4137D-6C26-4A84-BDB8-2E5A4BB71E00}. Client process ID: 2844.

    When Silverlight uninstallation is complete, you hope to see an event like this:

    Event type: Information
    Event source: MsiInstaller
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 1034
    Date: 25/01/2011

    Description:
    Windows Installer has withdrawn the product. Product name: Microsoft Silverlight. Product version: 4.0.60310.0. Product language: 1033. Returning success or error: 0.

    Then when the uninstall program doesn't work, the final event looks like this:

    Event type: Information
    Event source: MsiInstaller
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 1042
    Date: 25/01/2011

    Description:

  • I took the SIM card of my 5s and put it in my 6 s and used an iTunes backup. If I have my 5 s factory reset it will do the same to my 6s?

    So I got an iPhone 5S for about two years. I wanted to update so I got the iPhone 6s for Christmas. The Christmas day, after two hours of poor internet connection, have to update iTunes and having my iCloud backups do not work because they were on iOS 9.2 and iPhone 6s, I am on iOS 9.1, I started the 6s upward as new and updated updated to iOS 9.2. * After that, I took my nano off the old 5s iPhone sim card and put it in the iPhone 6 s, then I used the iTunes backup.*

    After all this was done I was enjoying the hell out of my new phone and all its features fantasies and what not. But I had a thought, now that I got a new phone I could use my old 5s as more than a games/iPod phone.

    So my question is this:

    If I factory reset my iPhone 5 s and wipe your own will, which are the same in my iPhone 6 s even though they are both still connected? (what I mean is, for example, if I changed/added a note to my 6 sec it would seem on my 5 institutions). My concern is that I always use the same sim card that was in my iPhone 5 s. I do not want to reset the 5 s and then have it do the same thing on my new 6 s.

    Or can I go to manage the devices on my Apple ID and take the 5 s out of it, then factory reset 5s.

    No, the deletion of your old phone will have no effect on your new phone.

  • My computer could have been hacked by Microsoft Technician via remote assistance?

    Last week I contact Microsoft support about a problem that I had and the technician said it needs access to my computer by the remote assistant in order to solve the problem.  I asked if he could direct me and let do me it myself but he said no, it must be connected by remote assistance.  As he'd download it told me it would take a while and he could not stay on the phone with me because he could help other customers in the meantime and said he'd call me when the download is complete.  He did call back me and was able to solve my problem.

    However shortly after my computer has been hacked and I am wondering if it is just a coincidence or could it have downloaded information from my computer.  Should I have allowed him access to remote assistance.  I am very worried.

    Your help would be appreciated
