Defragmenter will not work in Task Scheduler

• My VB2013 exe will not run the Task Scheduler but works very well for direct click in Explorer as well as a BAT file.

  The program is configured to run from a direct click using a text file specifying where the source files and destination.  Worked very well for a direct click or from the. BAT file.   It runs the Task Scheduler, I can see it appear in the Excel Task Manager when it is active.  But while it freezes.  He reads the spreadsheet looking for specific elements then output to a CSV text file.

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)

• Task Manager Windows 'show all processes from all users' will not work

  Hi im running service of 64 bit vista Home premium pack 2

  For some reason any button "show all processes from all users" in the Task Manager will not work, when I click nothing happens, uac prompt little or nothing.

  I can end processes very do well no problem it's just the show all button that does not work, I thought that maybe the taskmgr.exe in my right-click system32 folder and compatiability tab and running it as admin it would work, but the compatiability tab is completely grayed out all I can't click anything in it.

  Im not a big computer wiz, but I checked my user accounts account im logged on says that it is the administrator and UAC is on.

  On a side note do not know if this has nothing to do with my problem but recently my computer has got contracted a Trojan horse that has infected the mrt.exe file, I had to delete, now I get an error during windows startup associated with mrt.exe works not properly. any suggestions how to solve this problem too

• Windows 7 Disk Defragmenter does not work

  All of a sudden, I get the following error message when you try to run Defrag

  "Disk Defragmenter cannot start the Task Scheduler service is not running. Start the Task Scheduler service and try again.',

  that does not work.

  Assuming that task scheduler was enabled and the Defragmenter tool still does not work, here is a routine that I have compiled over time which proved to be effective to solve the problems of Defragmenter:

  There are several reasons why the built-in Defragmenter may not work correctly:

  0. it is malware on the system. Solution: Run an anti-virus control and also a spyware check.

  1. the disk is too full (you need at least 15% free space, sometimes 20%). Solution: Delete files unnecessary and programs until you have more than 20% free space.

  2. the disc is damaged and must be repaired. Solution:

  a. open "My computer" and right-click on the drive that you want to disable frag.
  b. Select 'Properties' and click on 'tools '.
  c. Select "Check now" to check the drive for errors.
  d. Select the two options and click on 'start '.

  (This can take time and can restart the PC so that it can do the check at boot time. Be patient and let it complete).

  3. Disk Defragmenter can be altered, needing a system restore to fix it. Solution:

  a. start - all programs - Accessories - System Tools - System Restore (click here to open);
  b. Select a good restore point before you start having problems with Disk Defragmenter.
  c. start the restore process and let an end (descriptive name of something restore operation as "Repair Defrag").

  4. There are other programs that run the Defragmenter interruption integrated. Solution:
  a. close all running programs.
  b. If you think there may be some programs that run in the background.
  c. press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and
  d. Select "start Task Manager".
  e. under the 'Applications' tab, you will find a list of all running applications - you can close these by selecting "end task."

  5. If still no luck, try disabling the screen saver when you run Disk Defrag (you should very well leave the system only when running the built-in defragmentation utility).

  6. If still no go, try to run the defragmenter in Mode without failure. If she runs, something interferes with her and stalking interference may not be easy. Note: Some versions of Windows 7 disables the ability to run the Defragmenter built-in in safe mode. If disabled, it will say when you try to start it in safe mode.

  7 Disk Defragmenter may no longer be on the system or is damaged while it needs a re - install. Solution: Reinstall the built-in function.

  There are several ways to re - install the built-in Defragmenter:

  A:
  a. open the menu 'start '.
  b. type '% Windir%\Inf' in the 'Search' box and press 'Enter '.
  c. in the window that opens, find the file named "dfrg.inf.
  d. right-click on "dfrg.inf" and "install".

  B:
  a. go into "start > run" on your computer.
  b. Type "rundll32.exe setupapi, InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132% windir%\inf\dfrg.inf" and press "Enter."
  3. click 'OK' to make the program automatically reinstall itself.

  C:
  a. go to start > all programs > Accessories > right click on command prompt > select 'run as administrator '.
  b. at the command prompt, type "regsvr32 dfrgsnap.dll" and press "enter."
  c. type 'regsvr32 dfrgui.dll' and press 'Enter '. This will reinstall the missing Defragmenter files.

  8. most of the problems will be solved by #6 above, but if not, and if your windows installation is otherwise working well, you should consider to download a free trial of a Defrag tool commercial rather than drastic measures to restore the functionality built-s. Third-party programs are more robust and many work in the background, so you can use your PC during defragmentation.

  Most third party programs offer a free, fully functional trial (better ones are for 30 days). Install one of them allows you to disable built-in and if you decide to uninstall, removal will replace the built-in function, repaired several times in the process: it's worth a try...

  Here's a recent Top 10 comments side-by-side comparison of the best available defragmentation programs:

  Place it at the top of the page is the only defrag program that also prevents the fragmentation (see comment).

  Why is it good to prevent fragmentation?

  Basically, it significantly increases life expectancy of your hard drive (especially since you don't have to leave the system on all night - a much 'greener' agricultural practice), not to mention it also increases the performance of the system.

  Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
  That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the

  The SIM card is not support indicates that the iPhone is locked to the American carrier that it has been activated with. In order to obtain the released lock it is necessary that you talk to the carrier to find out what their requirements are to release the lock. They are the only ones who unlock it so that it can be used with another carrier.

• How can I recover my old firefox after I replaced it, it told me a new will not work?

  I was on my AOL Homepage and was encouraged to be upgraded for increased security. Everything went well, but when I tried to open Firefox, I learned it wouldn't work. Usually, with this older system, I am notified when an upgrade will not work. I would have never taken the lead and replaced my old if I knew. Is it possible to recover my old Firefox?

  There are apps that I have on this old system that does not work on newer systems. (I have an Airbook updated but I like the big screen for some things). I found this on Google:
