  • Whenever I start my computer I get an error message "" cannot find the file M3PLUGIN. "." DLL. How can I solve this. ___

    This happened only after I deleted my temporary files, but does not see why this file would have been affected

    The file is part of the malware MyWebSearch toolbar. Either you have uninstalled the malware program or your antivirus/antispyware program did. In all cases, a reference has been left in the boot file. You can remove the reference by managing your startup.

    Because you had a piece of malware, the chances are too high you had others. It would be a good idea to scan. I recommend to download and install MalwareBytes' anti-malware (MBAM) from http://www.malwarebytes.org . The program is free. (There is a paid version, but you don't need to buy it to remove the malware).

    Manage startup:

    (for XP) Start > run > msconfig [Enter]

    This will open the System Configuration utility. Look under the Startup tab and find the likely culprit. Uncheck the box next to its name, apply and OK out. You don't need to restart immediately, but next time you do, you will get a dialog box saying that you have used the utility. Just check the box that says in effect, "don't mind to this subject again".

  • Windows error message "cannot find the file K:\$MFT or K:\System Volume Information.

    Original title: Windows Error Message.  Cannot locate the file K:\$MFT

    Periodically, I get an error message stating that Windows cannot locate the file K:\$MFT or K:\System Volume Information.   In this case my computer loses contact with K (my backup drive).  The only way I can get the command back up and running is to shut it down, restart windows and then reconnect the drive.  I have absolutely no idea where, why, or what this message is not irritating and a nuisance.  How can I stop this?

    My problem is back and I guess that I does not after all.  It was suggested that more info on my system could help find answers.  I am running Windows XP. SP3.  My HD is 500 GB.  Intel Core 2 CPU.  6600 GHZ, 3 GB of Ram.

    In addition the cannot locate the message file, it sometimes indicates that a "delayed write failed" and I should save the K:\$MFT file also.

    As far as I can tell, I have solved my problem.  Windows 'Restore' was trying to save my disk backup for future use, and I think it's whence came the message.  I changed the settings to restore now ignores my backup disk and the problem has not happened since.  I hope it's the end of it.

  • Error message cannot open the file PF.zip draws in learing Adobe Total training, "The TXLO7ES_PF.zip is not a valid Win 32 application".

I would really appreciate help with this.

    Hello

    1. Are you able to open another PDF and zip files?
    2. Did you the latest changes on the computer before this problem?

    This problem can occur if the file is corrupted, incorrect or missing and if the file is infected with the virus, a worm, or other malware.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you try the procedure described in the article and see if it helps.
    Error "not a Win32 application invalid. File downloaded
     
    Method 2:
    If you have downloaded this file and verified that it is complete and compatible with your version of Windows, delete the file and try to download and run again. It is possible during the download, the file is corrupted.
     
    If the second download does not work, try to download the file to a different Web page. It is possible that the person or company to maintain the website downloaded by mistake a corrupted version of the file that you are trying to download.
     
    Method 3:
    If the problem persists you can scan your computer anti-virus using the Microsoft Safety Scanner.

    Microsoft safety scanner will help us to get rid of software viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  • Mini 101NR - restore to fail, error message "cannot find the file.

    While restoring my Mini 1010NR with 8 GB SSD from the disk of XP SP3 operating system, everything fine until partially through the recovery an error message saying that it cannot find the i386\ASMS file.

    I tried the options "install fresh copy" and "repair" and get this same error message in both directions.

    I formatted the SDS with both regular and quick NTFS file system. My OSD software gives me the possibility of formatting of the SDS with fat? I have not tried. That I should?

    I looked at the CD, and in the i386 subdirectory, I see a subdirectory called ASMS. I see several subdirectories in this directory.

    I am booting from an external CD/DVD drive. This seems correct, as the installed much restoration program file until stopping in the message saying that it couldn't find the file ASMS.

    This OSD provided with the computer when I bought it new at HP.

  • Error message "Cannot find the point" when deleting a file

    I'm deleting a file using two drag and drop for recycle bin and do a right-click with delete.  On several occasions, I get an error message "could not find the point".  I scanned by drive for errors, and it does not solve this problem.  Any ideas on how to get rid of this file?

    For what it's worth, the item is in my favorites folder, and this is the URL for a web page.  I don't know if the extra fact is important or not.

    THX, David

    What I did was to create a Notepad file that was empty and saved in the same location as the file that won't go away. Once registered. I click with the right button on the new file and rename the exact name as the file problem. Don't forget to change the file extension (ex: .doc)

    ex file problem: word.doc

    new file: word.doc

    as long as they match eachother exactly you should see the file problem disappear and once that's gone, you can delete the new file created.
