Desktop and personal settings have changed after the restart of norton antivirus update

I recently had Norton through Live Update and restarted my computer as required by the update.  When I logged in, it me considered a new user and created a whole new desktop and profile - same created a new default folder under My Documents.  I logged in using the same information as before ID - but now instead of her load my old profile, office, and preferences, it loads up as if it were the first time that you log on as a new user.  It does not reference my old information.  All my documents are still there.  It created a new folder using my name. Media CENTER (the name of my pc's media CENTER).  So now, instead going into the folder "bcwinn" to load my profile, he created a new called a 'bcwinn '. MEDIACENTER.  Any idea on how to get the load of the process out of my 'bcwinn' folder information as he had before?  My user name and password have not changed: that's weird!

I just had the same problem (1 year later) with my Vista Home Premium on a Norton update restart.  I used a restore point to get my settings.

  • Changes after the Incopy fonts spacing content update

    I'm having a problem trying to understand what is happening with my spacing of the font for a text box that has been allocated and updated by one of our editors.

    I don't know what version of incopy there is probably don't not CC. I use Indesign CC Build 11.2.0.99.

    The amendment to its update should not change anything, except a paragraph near the end of the text box, but for some reason, all the text is changing. The text is formatted in the way that I want to first capture screen, then after update of much tighter sound and flows differently. Monitoring, kerning and all text attributes seem to be exactly the same. So miss me something somewhere, or there may be a compatibility issue if it has an older version. I'm not sure. Any ideas?

    Screen Shot 2016-01-27 at 9.57.53 AM.png

    The second paragraph breaks completely false after update. Nothing is changed in this paragraph by the Publisher.

    Screen Shot 2016-01-27 at 9.58.20 AM.png

    It is essential to know which version is used, and to ensure that all policies are the same.

  • Satellite A105-S2021: Sound had disappeared after the installation of Norton Antivirus

    Hi, I have an A105-S2021 and the sound was working fine, then yesterday I installed Norton antivirus, and now his fate quietly, it is impossible to hear, even with external speakers.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    I never heard that the antivirus software has a bad influence on the sound, speakers or the audio driver.
    What you can do is to check the Device Manager if there is some yellow exclamation points.
    Also try reinstalling the audio driver. See the page of the Toshiba driver.

    The image (it back up to an external drive as full image) and reinstall Windows XP, update, drivers and everything.  Install any plugins that you NEED to do all that you see here that the bat hurt.  If the problem no longer exists, something has gone wrong with your system from before (corrupt files or your cleaning is not as complete as you think) and if the problem persists - probably something to do with the material. In all cases, you can return to the image if you wish.

    To the extent wherever it is the registry, I must ask, * how * you have come to this conclusion?  Not that I'm defending something - I was wondering what you did to decide who is not your registry database?  (Side: I agree with you.)

    That's what * I * would call cleaning and optimization of a Windows XP machine:

    Search for malware:

    Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

    Remove anything they find. Reboot when necessary. (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

    Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

    The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:

    Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in. Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.) You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

    You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory. This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

    Do a house cleaning and the dust of this hard drive:

    You can free up disk space (will also help get rid of the things that you do not use) through the following steps:

    Windows XP should take between 4.5 and 9 GB * with * an Office suite, editing Photo software, alternative Internet browser (s), various Internet plugins and a host of other things installed.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

    -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
    -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
    -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:

    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
