• disk cleanup does not start 'Microsoft has encountered an error.

  I am running Win XP Pro SP3.  I tried to do a disk cleanup.  I tried to go through system tools and also start, run the cleanmgr.  Neither one would go.  I get the standard Microsoft window that says an error has occurred and I would like to send a report.  I tried running malware analysis and restart also. Any ideas?

  I'm sorry, that I couldn't find useful on this topic.  For the most part, the suggestion is either give up and download/install Ccleaner or to extract a new copy of cleanmgr.exe.  The latter usually does not have contributed.

  CCleaner is a good utility, but if you go this route, do not use record cleaning option.

  The current version of cleanmgr.exe, which should be located in C:\Windows\system32, is 6.00.2900.5512 that there should be a copy of the same version of the file in C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386.  On my XP Pro system, I have an earlier version 6.0.2900.2180, C:\Windows\$NTServicePackUninstal$ and I have 'the original' in compressed form in C:\i386 (this is the version 6.0.2600.0).

  I saw a suggestion of semi-utile troubleshooting in the latest post (LasseA123) here: http://forums.techguy.org/windows-vista/789412-disccleanup-will-not-run-2.html note, however, that the problem discussed in this thread was in Vista, and that the two keys under this says LasseA123 caused his problem are not present in XP.  If you follow the suggestion here and actually isolate the problem to one or two subkeys, include this information in the post that I am proposing in the next paragraph.

  My only suggestion is to start a new thread, either here, most likely in the Forum of Technet XP3: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/itproxpsp/threads with the subject 'Event 1000 Cleanmgr ID' and focus on the disciplines that you pasted here.  If you try to replace the current copy of the cleanmgr.exe with one or more of the files in the location I mentioned above but still have the problem, include this information in your message as well.

• Products of disk cleanup does not not to remove older restore points

  Hi, I use Vista Home Premium sp2, and although I had this problem for a long time, I barely had time to ask about it.

  I have a separate drive (physically) for my backup/restore points, whenever it fills the only way I can do anything or is to format the drive and try again. Both Vista and CCleaner fail to create a disk space when asked to remove older restore points. There is no error message; They seem to work, but no free space appears on the disc.

  In fact, the only software that I can remember that actually create any space by deleting old restore points was the Norton AV that was shipped with the system, but it was on a limited license that has expired for a long time.

  All the advice to avoid the trouble of formatting the hard drive and create a new backup from scratch would be greatly appreciated!

  Hello

  I think you're confused of Restore Points and backups of your files or a backup of the operating system image.

  Restore Points, who put your computer's settings back to an earlier point in time, are saved on your system, C: drive, not on another drive.

  Backups of files or System Image backups you save to other media; an another hard drive, etc.

  Disk Cleanup and CCleaner does not remove files or backups of the system; You must do it manually.

  See you soon.

• disk cleanup does not add any free space on a local disk C

  Windows 7 has been reinstalled and nothing seems to just I have 750 GB hard disk, but it shows only 698. I use disk cleanup, but free space is never added to a local drive C before windows 7 has been reinstalled I would delete system restore points and free space is always added to C Local dell drive replaced the hard drive and the motherboard. is there a way to check why no free space has been added and why I only show 698 GB when I have 750 I jump someone has an answer

  There are things which never appear even though you have set to see hidden and system folders.  There is a free program called Treesize that you can download from http://www.download.com which will show you everything on your hard drive.  One thing about the 750 GB 698 vs.  People judge 1000 K, but windows account in binary, which means that a K is 1024.  So when count you in decimal, you will get the 750 000 000, but in binary, it's less.

  Good luck.

• Hard Drive C full disk cleanup does not

  My hard drive C has been fine for a long time.  Then all of a sudden in a period of about a year he started fill by itself.  I would deal with the problem with the disk cleaning and remove programs and files is no longer needed, but every time I did that it would end up a bit more than before (it would mean 40%, then fill up to 65%, then disk clean he would stay to 45% full).

  Now, I have 110 MB of space on a 30 GB C drive, and I've done everything I can.  I ran thousands of times drive cleanup, I have eliminated all the programs that I don't use, and I transferred all my music and movies on my D drive (which is fine).
  I ran several scans, but there seems to be no worm.  I can't do system restore because I did a restore a year ago.
  Is there something I can do, or is editing and re - install Vista my only option?

  Hello

  To add to the view of Mick.

  Look with in the settings of your programs to change to the D drive. You can also copy existing data to D:, just copy it and make sure everything is OK before you delete it on C: and make a backup.

• Disk Defragmenter does not open in Windows 7

  Since I started using Norton, Disk Defragmenter does not work and my computer is very slow. How can I me Defrag to work and to speed up my computer?

  There are 2 issues here:

  1 Defragmenter does not
  2 PC is slow.

  If the disk is very fragmented, it can cause the PC to run poorly, so let's handle defrag first and then we can look at the additional steps to speed it up.

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

  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. There may be malware on the PC
  Solution - run the Antivrus, then Antispyware scans (can take a long time if ever made. Be patient):
  a. analysis of the entire system with the anti-virus & manage everything that exists;
  b. analysis of the entire system with Anti-Spyware & manage everything that exists;

  4. 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").

  5. 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."

  6. 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).

  7. If still no go, try to run the defragmenter in Mode without failure. If she runs, something interferes with it in standard mode and stalking the 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.

  8. 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.

  Most of the problems will be resolved in #6 above, but if not and if your windows installation is otherwise works well, consider downloading a free trial of a commercial defragmentation tool rather than the drastic measures to restore the frame-s functionality.

  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...

  9 here is a recent Top 10 comments side-by-side comparison of the best available defragmentation programs:

  http://Disk-Defragmenter-software-review.TopTenReviews.com/

  a. Select a program and install it. The best defrag programs are automatic and the top placers in the foregoing analysis can defragment everything using the PC. Place it at the top of the page was the only defragmentation program preventing fragmentation (see comment).
  b, readers to defragment your drive.

  The PC should improve speed, as the above steps are performed. Here are additional steps to optimize PC for speed:

  10. make sure that your PC has as much memory (RAM) as possible.
  Solution - Know how much RAM your PC:
  a. go to start > right click on 'Computer' > properties
  b. this list the type of processor and speed and how much RAM is installed, and what version of windows is running and the Service Pack. Sign it, because it may be necessary later.
  c. search your PC name and model # followed by 'memory' and see what is listed. This tells you what type of memory you need and how many "Sticks" your PC will accept.
  d. get the maximum amount of memory your computer can contain and install it. Search for "how to install memory on one (your model name and #)" to find videos on how to do this if necessary.

  11. make sure that the registry is clean.
  Solution: Get and run a good registry cleaner.
  a. check to see if there is a registry cleaner already in the system;
  b. otherwise, download CCleaner here: http://download.cnet.com/ccleaner/
  c. run the registry cleaner until he finds and corrects any errors.

  Note: Be careful with registry cleaners as there are many autour with new ones coming all the time with some would have been causing more damage than they help. Use a proven reliability.

  CCleaner is one of the originals and very safe.

  Once all this is done, your PC will be in the best possible shape.

  Good luck and let us know if you have any questions (ask your questions and I will then answer best I can).

  PS: If after all that, the PC is still not doing well, repair may involve repairing the windows installation and possibly re - install windows itself. These aren't simple solutions. If so, indicate if and guidelines can be provided.

• Regular disk defragmentation does not intervene. Computer can be in mode "sleep" during the defragmentation?

  Disk defragmentation. will take place every week at 01:00.  Computer is in "standby" at that time.  Is this why disk frag does not happen every week?  When I defragment manually I have to confirm the status of administrator... it would have something to do with it?  I use Windows 7 Home Premium.

  Hello Lauren,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

  You did it any significant hardware or change software on the computer before this problem?

  I understand that disk defragmentation does not work as expected. When this works even if your computer is in "sleep". Therefore, I would suggest trying the following steps and check if the problem persists.

  Method 1:

  Step 1: Check if the Disk Defragmenter service is running.
  a. click Start and type services.msc in the search box.
  (b) in the Services window, double-click the Disk Defragmenter service.
  c. check if the Disk Defragmenter service is set to Automatic Started .

  Step 2: The question may arise also because of the intervention of third-party software. So, I suggest clean boot of the system and check if the scheduled defragmentation works.

  How to perform a clean boot in Windows
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: See "how to reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting" to prepare the computer to start as usual after a repair. "

  Method 2:

  Try to set the Defragmenter to wake up the computer from the mode "sleep" and check if it works.

  1. Click Start, type taskschd.msc and press enter.
  2. In the left pane, click the arrow next to the Task Scheduler Library, Microsoftand Windows to expand the folders.
  3. Click the defrag folder.
  4. In the center pane, right-click on ScheduledDefrag and click Properties.
  5. Click the general tab.
  6. Check the box run with the highest privileges .
  7. Click the Conditions tab.
  8. Check the box to enable the computer to run this task and click OK.
  9. Close Task Scheduler.

  Check if the Defragmenter works to wake up the computer from the mode "sleep" as expected.

  If Disk Defragmenter does not at all, then we can see the post from Bill R TechSpec responded on 19 May 2011 in the following thread.

• After updating my iPhone 6 (9.3.4) the WiFi signal becomes very low! I did everything, but the problem does not stop! I don't a not update my other devices & their very good WiFi signals. Please help me solve this terrible problem...

  After updating my iPhone 6 (9.3.4) the WiFi signal becomes very low! I did everything, but the problem does not stop! I don't a not update my other devices & their very good WiFi signals. Please help me solve this terrible problem...

  Here's a tip for the user on the problems of Wi - Fi. Suggest from the top and bottom. Maybe one of them will help you.

  (1) restart you device.

  (2) resetting the network settings: settings > general > reset > reset network settings. Join the network again.

  (3) reboot router/Modem: unplug power for 2 minutes and reconnect. Update the Firmware on the router (support Web site of the manufacturer for a new FW check). Also try different bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) and different bandwidths (recommended for 2.4 to 20 MHz bandwidth). Channels 1, 6 or 11 are recommended for 2.4 band.

  (4) change of Google DNS: settings > Wi - Fi > click the network, delete all the numbers under DNS and enter 8.8.8.8 or otherwise 8.8.4.4

  (5) disable the prioritization of device on the router if this feature is available. Also turn off all apps to VPN and retest the Wi - Fi.

  (6) determine if other wireless network devices work well (other iOS devices, Mac, PC).

  (7) try the device on another network, i.e., neighbors, the public coffee house, etc.

  (8) backup and restore the device using iTunes. Try to restore as New first and test it. If ok try to restore the backup (the backup may be corrupted).

  https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT201252

  (9) go to the Apple store for the evaluation of the material. The Wi - Fi chip or the antenna could be faulty.

• Disk cache does not

  I use the add-on for the status of the Cache and noticed last week that the disk cache half of it shows 'not yet loaded. At first I thought that the problem was with the add-on, I even uninstalled and re-installed, but still got the same message. Then I realize that the error was because the disk cache is not active somehow.

  The upgrade to 11.0 FF last week, I made no changes to my configuration or installed any new Add-ons in weeks. I have a few additional modules related to the cache that I installed because I noticed this problem, in fact to diagnose this problem. All in their own way reiterates that the disk cache does not work.

  The page about: cache? device = disk is completely blank in my browser. The purpose: cache page only displays the information of the cache and hide offline (i.e. 0, since I have it is off).

  I added a "Cache" folder in my profile, and he has not made a difference.

  No, I did not order my disk cache folder to a different location on my hard drive.

  No, I'm not in navigation mode private unless there is a way to get in without my knowledge. With the menu editor I removed options incognito in my menus for a long time, since I never use it. He has also not checked in Options - Advanced - Privacy.

  Yes, I have checked all the cache-related on: configuration settings. Everything is as it should be activated and assigned to a certain size of the disk cache.

  How can I get this working again? It's a bit missing folder manually add to my profile, and if so, what is the path?

  This behavior is a feature, not a bug. When the "clear history of firefox closing" setting is selected, the option to clear the cache too, the disk cache is completely disabled. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=709262 for more information.

  It took me a while to understand this one.

• Logical disk management does not recognize a slave drive

  I installed an internal HD as a slave. The BIOS sees the drive, Western Digital Lifeguard sees the drive (it checks OK) with the appropriate drive letter, PMagic sees the drive before starting, but the logical disk manager does not recognize the drive or the drive letter.

  Using Windows XP, SP3 with latest updates

  Hello

  1. The hard drive is recognized in another computer?

  If this isn't the case, then the problem could be the hard drive itself. If he is found, then the problem is in your computer. In this case, run the diskpart.exe utility.

  Use the list partition command and see if the partition is detected. If so, then I suggest you to format the drive in diskpart.

  However, take a return of all data on the hard drive before the format by plugging it into another computer. Help with backup data, see

  Backup: what, how, where

  http://www.Microsoft.com/protect/data/backup/about.aspx

  To use the Diskpart.exe utility, follow these steps:

  1. type diskpartand press ENTER to open the diskpart tool.

  2. type list diskand press ENTER. A list of available hard disks.

  3. type select disk =[n]

  n s Specifies the number of disc the disc to receive the focus.

  4. type list partition

  This command displays the partitions listed in the table to partition on the current drive.
  5. type select partition =[d]

  This command selects the specified partition and gives it the focus.

   d s Specifies the drive letter or mount point path of the partition to receive the focus.

  6. type format drive: / FS: NTFS/Quick

  For more information about commands, see

  A Description of the Diskpart command-line utility

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/300415

  Now you should be able to see the slave drive in Solution Explorer.
