    You can just leave them alone.  They tell Windows how to display records.

    You can open them in Notepad if you're curious & want to have a look inside of them.

    If you don't show hidden or system files, you won't even notice them.

  • My pc says that windows does not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM.

    My pc says that windows does not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM. It is said it can be repaired by using the original installation CD, but we do not have. Any ideas please?

    The file is missing or corrupt is one of your files in the system registry.

    By far, the best way to recover from this is to go to another computer and create a free Hirens Boot CD.
    Download Hirens: <> http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/ > (link at the bottom of the icon of the disk)
    Hirens CD burning <> http://www.hirensbootcd.org/burning/ >

    Once you create the CD, and then start your system of problem with this CD.  In the first window, select "Mini Windows XP" and wait for the system to start.  When it starts, go to the Hirens Boot CD menu and select
    Register-> Registry Restore Wizard.
    then follow the prompts.  This wizard will return a copy of your registry database from backups that are stored with your system restore points.  After the restoration, stop, remove the CD and restart.

    When you start your system, it is recommended to perform a system restore operation to ensure the consistency of your system

    The hard way to get back is covered in the following Microsoft KB article, but if you have installed a large number of service packs for your installation of XP, I don't give you many chances to get past part 1. (And there's also an installation CD to access the Recovery Console)

  • Windows didn't start because the following file is missing or corrupted \windows\system32\config\system

    Windows windows xp could not start because the following file is missing or damaged:
    \windows\system32\config\system
    You can accept it corresponds to repair this file by starting windows setup using the original Setup CD
    Select 'r' in the first screen to start repair

    I don't have original cd so I downloaded from the internet.  Only 1 cd when the instructions said it would be 6. that didn't work

    tillieme,
    You will need a valid XP disc to run the repair.  It is possible that the PC manufacturer develop a recovery hard disk partition.  You should check with them to see if it's an option.  Also, some manufacturers will provide filtering alternative for a small fee.

  • Disable the creation of files desktop.ini in Windows 8

    Hi all

    I want to know if this is a way to disable the creation of files desktop.ini, at least in the desktop system folder.

    I knew that under XP there was a DWORD key which should be created to avoid creating all the desktop.ini files in the computer.

    I don't want the desktop.ini file features (personalization of icon, remembering the last display in each folder options, etc.)

    So I don't want to hide the desktop.ini files. I want to remove them and avoid Windows 8 create again and again.

    If Microsoft has disabled this customization which was present in the earlier version of Windows and now is not available (to disable the creation of files desktop.ini) just say. If there is some other registry key to be created or modified, please advise.

    Thank you

    Pablo.

    Hi Pablo.

    I would like to inform you that the Desktop.ini is a system file that addresses common issues, such as downloads, Documents, photos and music etc. When a change is made in these files, Desktop.ini is updated.

    Deleting the file will cause problems with the operating system and it is not recommended to delete the files. The default desktop.ini a hidden system file and read-only attributes assigned.

    If you want to stop these messages, go to the files through Search Options, click settings and you will see the Folder Options, click on it and the view tab and scroll down until you see "Hide protected operating system files (recommended) and put a checkmark in the box."

    Hope that answers your query. You can write back to us for other queries/problems related to windows and we will be happy to help you further.

    Nice day

    I'm getting this ' file is missing or damaged:------WINDOWS-SYSTEM32-CONFIG-SYSTEM ' error and Windows does not start in the F8 boot options. When I disable the auto reboot, I get a BSOD 51 registry error, consistent with the file "missing or corrupt" error Surprisingly "Recovery Console" works so I used to run chkdsk. This has not solved the problem, but even once, surprisingly, the utility reported no fixed error. Ok. I do research online (using another computer of course) and check out the many tips that I copy some files in my "c:\windows\repair" folder in the folder 'system '. Before I had time to do that, however, I found an article from Microsoft stating that this should not be done if you have an OEM System... what I'm doing. Apparently, hives system on these OEM installed OS set other passwords that can permanently block you on your records if you use this method. Thanks for the warning. My system restore disc is nothing more than a tool of re-insall OS that will wipe all my data in the process, and this is not desirable. Currently, I see again all my data on the drive by using the "recovery console". I'm ready to thread the needle on this one in the hope of re - access the operating system, although in some limited capacity. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    When you run chkdsk in RC, did you use the /r switch? This is the key! In other words, this should be the command:

    Chkdsk /r

    (there is a space before the slash)

    Moreover, KB307545 can be run safely on most OEM XP installations. Of course, nothing is guaranteed 100%.

    Before you do this or else, you really must ensure all data is stored safely. One way to do this is to start on a live Linux CD and then copy the files to an external hard drive. Another way is to connect the problem hard drive into a working PC and copy the files in this way. This could be done by the servo drive or with an adapter like this:

    Thanks derek

    Hi Derek,.
     
    For the hard disk with the error message, try the steps mentioned in the article given below to resolve this issue:

    Warning Do not use the procedure that is described in this article if your computer has an OEM operating system. The hive system on OEM installations creates passwords and user accounts that did not exist previously. If you use the procedure that is described in this article, you may not be able to log in the recovery console to restore the original registry hives.
     
    For problems with media files, I suggest you to start a new thread and provide all the necessary information to help us help you better.
  • No idea if the link to a PDF in the HTML file will be available on windows tablets 8?

    I do an application of sale that links inside with our brochures.

    These links should be updated, as the brochures are getting a lot of updates.

    I thought to put the pdf files in the HTMLresources folder and place a button link to this file in the folder.

    But it does not work on a Windows 8 tablet.

    Is this something that is planned for a future release?

    No work around, sorry. We will address this issue in our next release.
