Deleting registry entries

Similar Questions

• deleted registry entry

  I deleted a registry entry while trying to get rid of some spyware.  Stupidly, I failed to export first, so I can't restore the registry.  The deletion has only caused a problem:

  When I try to open an executable file by double-clicking or by right click and select 'Open', I get an error message saying: "there is no program associated with this file to perform this action."

  If I click with the right button on the program or shortcut and select "Start" it starts very well.

  Can someone tell me what was the registry entry that tells the computer that double-clicking an exe file means to launch?

• Connection Manager profile registry entry

  Hello

  On my WIN XP SP3, I found a Profile Manager HKCR\Connection registry entry. Its subkeys Shell\Open\Command points to a file CMMGR32. EXE in the System32 folder, but the file does not exist there.

  My questions are:

  What is the use of this article?

  What happens if I delete this entry?

  This key is tied to a Windows component that is not installed on my system?

  How can we determine the validity of these keys?

  Thank you best regards &,.

  What is the use of this article?

  It seems that the connection manager has been a feature of people into their custom in Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP applications:

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc778989 (WS.10) .aspx

  More that likely the exe is installed with custom applications.

  Note: This key is not in Windows 7.

  What happens if I delete this entry?

  I tested in a Virtual Machine and that you are having problems. You wouldn't see Remove me these keys on my main box, as if this was not necessary it would not included by default in the operating system.

  This key is tied to a Windows component that is not installed on my system?

  Nope, it comes standard with every installation of Windows XP.

  How can we determine the validity of these keys?

  I don't know of any database that contains a list of all the keys in registry and their validity. Given the magnitude of such a basis, I doubt there are (but if we don't I'm sure someone in the community probably knows him).

  I briefly mentioned above, but I want to reiterate that I do not recommend 'house cleaning' in the registry. Do such causes far more problems than it solves. It is important to keep in mind that several registry keys are in place that for compatibility reasons (this key is a perfect example). Deleting these keys does not cause immediate problems now but could hurt you later on the road.

  If you want to experiment with the familiar registry keys deleting, I highly recommend the creation of a virtual machine with Virtual PC and allowing disks of cancellations.

• SQL Server Express of 2014 will not remove registry entries when uninstalling

  Hello

  I am responsible for the routine installation of our products in our society. We used to install SQL Server 2008 Express with our facility. We also checked the registry entries to detect if the SQL Server 2008 Express to a specific instance has been installed. When we run the uninstall for our program, we have also uninstalled auf instance. If it was the only forum wihtin SQL Server SQL Server hole has been uninstalled. This works as expected.

  Now, we want to implement the 2014 of SQL Server Express. The installation is successful and everything is working properly. But when we uninstall SQL Server 2014 leaves a large number of entries in the registry. In particular, the entry for the version number:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\Microsoft SQL Server\\120\\SQLServer2014\\CurrentVersion\Version

  This makes it difficult to detect if SQL Server 2014 is installed on the system, because SQL Server 2008 uninstall these entries when deleted as expected. OK I can check some folders and files, if they are available, but this does not seem the right way.

  Is this a bug, or are there reasons why the registry entries are not removed after uninstalling?

  Kind regards

  Christian

  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)

• Cannot remove trojan apparent - continues to add registry entries

  I am working on a Dell 2400 that was not (until recently) updated or properly protected with a firewall / virus protection.

  I tried the copy of the demo of Norton Antivirus and it had detected I think:
  Trojan.fakeavalert and another who was virtumundo trojan.vundo or Trojan (I forgot the name)

  Recently, I uninstalled NAV installed the following:

  ZoneAlarm Internet Security (and all updated)
  AdAware 2008 - free version (and it's also up-to-date)

  The two ZoneAlarm & AdAware run fairly clean except for the cookies, etc. (low priority stuff)

  My problem right now is that there is something that is adding entries to the registry (even in safe mode), and it causes many web pages to pop up in IE7 or FireFox.
  The entries that I find in the registry are:
  \HKLM\software\microsoft\windws\currentversion\run
  Rundll32.exe "c:\windows\system32\rulufutu.dll",a"
  Rundll32.exe "c:\windows\system32\piyudijo.dll",a"
  Rundll32.exe "c:\windows\system32\kitehuvu.dll",a"

  When I delete these entries (even in safe mode), they are added in a few seconds.

  Try scans with both of these programs in the following order:

  Please disable other security software that may cause conflicts with the scans. (Remember to enable it later.)

  Instructions on how to do that are HERE.

  Please download for your desktop Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware here or here

  Double-click on mbam - setup.exe to install the application.

  • Make sure that a check mark is placed next to the Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and launch of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, and then click Finish.
  • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
  • Once the program has loaded, select "perform quick scan", then click scan.
  • The analysis may take some time at the end, so please be patient.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, and then view the results to view the results.
  • Make sure that everything is checked
    Click Remove selected.
  • End of disinfection, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to restart. (See additional Note)
  • The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.

  Additional notes:
  If MBAM finds a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompt, click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection, if asked to restart the computer, you can do so immediately.
  * If you cannot download or install MBAM on your computer, see if you can use the computer to a friend or family member to download MBAM. Use this link to update here to manually download the update. Once downloaded, rename the Setup file "mbam - setup.exe" to something like "catchjunk.exe". Copy the installation file and the update on a CD or a flash drive file. Transfer the file on the infected computer. Install the "catchjunk.exe" file, and then run the update so that you get the current definitions. After that, run a full scan of the system and select to have the program REMOVE everything it finds.

  * If you need to re - install MBAM but problem by reinstalling, try using the MBAM Cleanup utility by downloading from http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam-clean.exe

  Download and scan with Super Anti-Spyware free for individuals. It is available HERE:
  * Double-click on SUPERAntiSypware.exe and use the default settings for the installation.
  * An icon will be created on your desktop. Double-click this icon to start the program.
  * If it is asked to update the program definitions, click "Yes." If this isn't the case, update the definitions before scanning them by selecting 'Check for Updates. (If you have problems downloading updates, download and unzip them from heremanually.)
  * Under "Configuration and preferences, click Preferences .
  * Click the scanning control tab.
  * Under Scanner Options make sure the following is checked (leave all other non controlled):

  Close browsers before scanning.
  Search the rejected.
  Terminate memory threats before quarantining.

  * Click on the "Close" button to leave the control center screen.
  * Back on the main screen, under "Scan for harmful software" click Scan your computer.
  * On the left, make sure you check C:\Fixed drive.
  * On the right, under "Complete Scan", choose perform complete scan.
  * Click 'Next' to start the scan. Please be patient while it scans your computer.
  * Once the scan is finished, a Scan summary box will appear with potentially dangerous elements that have been detected. Click on 'OK '.
  * Make sure that everything is checked, and click "next".
  * A notification will appear this "quarantine and removal is complete. Click 'OK' and then click on the 'Finish' button to return to the main menu.
  * If it is requested if you want to restart, click 'yes '.

  If that does not solve the problem, maybe it would be good according to a journal of control on the malware removal Forum.

• Are pre-existing registry entries overwritten by the installer?

  I was wondering what happens when creating a distribution installer that creates registry keys, but keys already exist on the target computer when the Setup program is run.  Change the keys to existing registry or the installer will skip them?

  Thank you.

  I think that they get too wrote.

  You do not get file or revision based on components with the CVI distribution Publisher: If the version of the installation is more recent than what was last used to install the application, it will overwrite everything in the distribution, even if later versions of the separate elements are present on the target.

  Distribution tools more efficient (for example InstllShield) can you give the desired probably behavior.

  I don't think the individual registry entries to wear a version on them: common practice is to use a different set of registry values for a more recent demand, not revised version of the keys and values.

• LabVIEW 2014 app installer doesn't create files % 2Ffiles in the documents and does not create the registry entries at least as administrator

  the LabVIEW 2014 32 bit app installer doesn't create folders/files in personal documents folder and does not create the registry entries in hkey_current_user\software except as an administrator.

  It's a true statement.

  You must change the windows policies, user restrictions (not recommended), normally the register (write) access is limited to normal users.

• Make the double question mark average in a registry entry as------? \C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\

  In my registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\eabfiltr

  I see double points to mark that precedes the file name in the entrance to the path of the Image:

  Image path = ? ------C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\EABFiltr.sys

  They appear on a number of other drivers - I checked, some drivers with double question marks are signed, others are unsigned, which doesn't seem to be not that it.  The drivers are present and operational system.  Is there something special that means?  I couldn't find anything definitive in Google or Bing.

  That said, it does reference to a directory of temporary names created by windows at startup, does not sound like a sign of boredom

• What microsoft software is locked/hidden registry entry "DbgagD" used with?

  My antivirus software informed me that I have a locked/hidden registry entry, which is not common. What microsoft software is this registry entry with that dbgagd used? I use vista 32 bit. My computer works without any problem, but I'll try to find the reason to make him not: -.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DbgagD\1

  "I ask this as I was told that its an important file or an entry of key infection may not even be reviewed or edited, when I click on '1' folder in the registry I get immediately ' an error prevents this key in the opening: the system cannot find the file specified." The registry would be corrupted? I need to know what this key is for as this is the only file which is detected in avira as requiring special attention, as its hidden without a valid reason. It is perhaps more technical that most general users are used to, but I thought I'd ask about it here, if any staff of Ms actually uses this site, and is not just for users. My antivirus software and firewalls have not detected anything other suspect outside this hidden file. I can't ignore it, and I do not want to reinstall, because it can easily happen again. Kaspersky tdsskiller with its default settings does not detect anything problematic. Detection of GMER rootkit (and microsofts own F8 at startup to repair vista) both give me a blue screen, with "lack of kxdlipoc.sys" > page in the box of nonpages "' on the errorlog for Gmer. The error with microsoft vista F8 repair is too fast to read however on the blue screen, even if I set automatic restart flaws in the vista start menu. The blue screen for F8 does not show in the newspaper.

  Thanks for any help

• Is it possible to delete all entries in the Eventvwr log?

  Separated from this thread.

  Is it possible to delete all entries in the Eventvwr log, so I can go back to that is the app is written in the Eventvwr log?

  By default, event viewer produced a considerable number of newspapers.

  The four elements of the menu in event viewer bar are file, Action, view and help.

  Clear a log only appears in the Action menu of drop-down menu if the cursor is placed in a newspaper that can be erased and a report in the list is not currently selected. So if it is placed on the option Windows logs clear a log is unavailable, while "subject of a report in a folder under five is not selected, the option clear a log is available."

  

  The three main Windows logs files are Application, security, and system. The default file for these logs size is 20, 480 KB, which is larger than necessary. A reasonable size is 2 048 KB. You can easily change the size immediately after clearing the log by using the scrollbar to the right of the maximum log size to change whatever size you choose. In the same time make sure that the box before overwriting is checked. All of your changes by clicking apply then OK. If you have not disabled the first newspaper the system prevents the selection of a maximum file size less than the size of the existing file.

  see that the app is written in the Eventvwr log?

  The system records the entries in the logs. The system monitors everything that happens. Individual applications do not write entries in the Event Viewer logs. It's the system that records the entries on startup applications, stop and crashing!
