• All of the physical memory used, but nothing in the Task Manager

  Hi I have windows 7 64 bit new installation as of yesterday (fully updated) and encounter a performance problem. When I look under task manager 95% of my physical memory (4 GB 3.5 GB) is used, but there is no task that uses memory. I chose to see the task for all users, and again nothing use the 3.5 GB of memory. It is a pretty clean install (auditor of virus and Skype, installed steam just) so no chance of a virus. I check my page file and it is set for the page file windows automatically scabies.

  I tried many things:-all service stop I can (no change)
  manually configure the paging file (no change)
  Reinstalled windows 7 (problem is finally once that all updates have been applied)

  Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  I had the same problem and it is solved.

  a month ago my computer was sluggish and his memory was 77% either 93%, even though nothing was running. in the Task Manager for all the different processes added up to about 1.75 GB, so there was about 2 GB memory unexplained (4gig memory). I always ignored the 'show processes from all users"because im the only user on my computer, but decided to finally click i and a new process comes top of the list. Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service, this process itself was using 2 GB of memory. After completing the process, my memory returned to normal. However another thing you need to do is go to the resource monitor in the performance of the Manager section tasks and to suspend all processes of Window Media Player Network Sharing Service which are still open to slow things, and then set your very pretty.

  I realize that this is maybe not the exact answer to problem for everyone, but give it a shot.

• How can I enable the Task Manager after recovering from an attack of Win32.GEMA

  Hello

  I am running Windows XP SP3.

  I have recently had an attack of the Win32.GEMA Trojan horse. Details of it are here: http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/Threat/Encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Trojan%3AWin32%2FRansirac.G

  I recovered my system using:

  AVG Rescue Disk

  Kaspersky Rescue Disk

  BitDefender Rescue Disk

  Scan of MalwareBytes

  McAffee analysis

  Hitman Pro Scan

  Spybot scan

  Eusing Registry Cleaner

  CCleaner

  Overkill maybe? But it worked... Up to now

  Apparently, the Trojan horse disables the Task Manager and that is I'm having bad to restore.

  I followed the advice in this article from Microsoft - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913623/ - but when I followed this part

  To set the DisableTaskMgr registry entry to 0 for a specific user, follow these steps:

  1. Shut down the computer.
  2. Log the computer by using a user account with administrator permissions.
  3. Click Start, click run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
  4. In the left pane, click the following registry subkey:
     HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
  5. In the right pane, double-click DisableTaskMgr.
  6. In the value data box, type 0, and then click OK.
  7. On the file menu, click exit.
  8. Restart the computer.

  N ° 5 says that disable TaskMgr should appear in the right pane, but there is no entry to disable TaskMgr. All it is an icon of the small 'ab' (the default) beside it, then, REG_SZ.

  Then I tried to follow this part of the article from Microsoft

  To set the DisableTaskMgr registry entry to 0 for all users, follow these steps:

  1. Shut down the computer.
  2. Log the computer by using a user account with administrator permissions.
  3. Click Start, click run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
  4. In the left pane, click the following registry subkey:
     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem\\\
  5. In the right pane, double-click DisableTaskMgr.
  6. In the value data box, type 0, and then click OK.
  7. On the file menu, click exit.
  8. Restart the computer.

  This time off TaskMgr was in the right pane - this time with a little "ohho? icon followed REG_DWORD

  I tried to create a new entry for the current user by copying one for all users, but not joy.

  Any suggestions?

  CTRL + Alt + Del does not receive any reaction whatsoever, no Ctrl + Shift + Esc or click with the right button on the barv task and selecting the Task Manager

  Thank you in anticipation

  These KB articles are for a different problem when you receive these messages when you run the Task Manager...

  Some malicious software is aware of the methods you're most likely to use to find and remove it (Task Manager, System Restore, command prompt, Internet, Google, etc.)

  The malware does not allows you to use things like the Task Manager to find and remove, so it prevents them from becoming a process running on the system and the process will not start or the process will be completed as soon as it is launched.

  The malware is happier when he let you think you need to use system restore, a repair install or reinstall your XP from scratch to fix your system when none of this is necessary.

  You can fool the malware (and then fix it).

  Assuming that your Windows is installed on your drive C, using Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder c:\windows\system32 and locate taskmgr.exe.

  Copy the taskmgr.exe file and rename the copy something malicious software will not recognize.  I like to call the copy:

  c:\windows\system32\jose.exe

  Double-click on jose.exe and see if the Windows Task Manager window opens now.

  The problem is the malware won't let the taskmgr.exe a running process, but he does not know jose.exe as a running process in order to thwart you all (I have a feeling that he will well a day on jose.exe).

  Will not 'fix' your task manager, but at least you will know whether or not the Task Manager mechanism works (taskmgr.exe still not start properly).  If you try to remove some malware and the need to use the Task Manager, you can simply launch jose.exe (double-click) instead, but will be still infected your system.

• SOLUTION EXPLORER. EXE must always run at the start of the TASK MANAGER after the LOGIN/WELCOME screen.

  Trying to restore the empty desktop icons by the recommendations, I have a white screen with a pointer after login and WELCOME screen.  CTRL-SHIFT-ESC gives me the TASK MANAGER. and I returned 'explorer.exe' I then the full desktop with white icons.  I need to do this every time I have start or restart the PC. I checked the regedit and the only entry to WINLOG, SHELL is "Explorer.exe" any ideas about a problem?  Thank you!

  Hi Eric1029,

  You can check if the following registry entries are correct.

  a. open the start menu, in the search bar type regedit, and then press ENTER.

  b. navigate to the following location and check the entries for "Shell" and "Userinit" on the right pane:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

  "Shell" ="Explorer.exe" (REG_SZ)

  'Userinit"="C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe '.

  c. also check if you have the correct permission for this registry key (winlogon)

  d. right-click and select permission. Make sure that at least with that you have group administrators, system and installer of confidence with full control and users group read permission.

  e. check if you are able to launch explorer.exe in the window running in the Task Manager.

  Important: The above method contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, follow the steps from the link below:

  Hope this information is useful.

• Firefox will not pages, and none of the steps in the section support help. I need a real person to help. Reset, reloading, Proxy, Firewall...

  I went through all the bandages above after receiving the following message "unable to connect".

  Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.msn.com.

     The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
     If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
     If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web."
  

  I reset, I checked the proxy (for no), I checked the firewall (enabled for FF), I uninstalled/reinstalled, I ran malware check (negative). I'm at my wit's end because I NEED FF for applications work which will not come through IE because of the policy of the company. I need serious help or I'm screwed.

  FF worked perfectly up until a week ago. Now, it starts on the homepage of FF but goes no further, even in safe mode. What gives?

  I uninstalled Chrome, same.

  Hello, normally these problems are caused by a security/firewall software which does not recognize and therefore blocks the new versions of firefox. Please try to remove all the program rules for firefox in your firewall and let it detect the program again: problems connecting to websites after Firefox update

• The homepage of Firefox will not develop my text in the search engine when I am connected to my Google account. In other words, when the top of the page is enabled (that is, the bar tabs allow you to read: + you, search, Images, videos, Maps, news, etc.).

  Here are a few screenshots that highlight this:

  http://i.imgur.com/BjAdf.jpg

  What is happening in the screenshots is identified on the left in black text. Basically, I don't see the search field bar. I can still type and get results, but the text I typed will not appear.

  Please note that the Google bar upstairs is turned on because I'm connected. Now look what happens when I log out of it:

  I run on Windows 7 64 bit. I have the most updated version of Firefox. I run Adblock Plus, NoScript, and Greasemonkey as addons. Note that disabling of all persons does not solve the problem: only signature of my Google account.

  It's a very interesting discovery. A few people have reported this. But we thought it was Google break this page purposely because they intend to remove this special Firefox search page. They think it's too old and want people to upgrade to the most recent. But I'm still not sure why being connected to Google breaks this page (and signing patches), I believe that Google is here at fault and must update the code on this page.

  The new search page Google for Firefox is:
  
  topic: Home

  Screenshot:
  
  http://i.minus.com/iewA9S.PNG

  This is a special page that is integrated into the Firefox browser. That's why he has a weird Web site address that does not resemble the normal sites that use http://www., .com, .net, or. org.

• Firefox will not load https pages. gives the security warning and will not accept an exception.

  I had problems with Firefox and some sites for about a year, and it is located in my laptop. I have no problems when using my desktop at work or my dad's cell phone in his house. Some sites simply returns a page of text style; no html. Other sites give me a security certificate warning and FF will not accept an exception for this site, either by clicking the button or manually enter the site as an exception. Tonight, GOOGLE will not load again! Why, it's trying to load on an https server, I don't know, however. Several other sites have also begun does not not and are also trying to load it on a secure server.

  Use Kaspersky, AVAST 2015, ESET, BitDefender or Microsoft family safety? These are among the most popular security programs which have a function to intercept your Internet connections and filter your traffic. When it's a secure site, in order to be able to decrypt and inspect your communications, the software must present a false certificate for Firefox. Sometimes, the software is not able to configure Firefox for this, or if you use the function of Reset of Firefox, the trust is broken and needs to be put in place again.

  Unfortunately, the same symptoms can appear with some malicious software.

  If you look at the second half of the post of Philipp, you see where you can check the section 'From' the certificate. This usually allows to identify the culprit. Can you take a look and report what you find?

• Why Firefox will not open a form on the existing web page

  Using Firefox, I go to a web page, and on it, there is a button to click for a contest entry. By clicking on the button should open a form (not a new web page) to fill. Nothing happens. It worked for me in the past, I entered this contest everyday until last Friday (11/22). Saturday (11/23), it wouldn't work.

  I contacted the website and they claim that everything is working well and they tried it on multiple web browsers, with no problems - it works correctly.

  I tried on several browsers, with the same result - no form to complete.

  The sounds that you block or JavaScript $('.col').addClass ('phase2'); to enter the phase2 or there is a problem with the CSS that would make this visible form once you have clicked on the button to enter the phase2.

  It's weird that it happens in other browsers as well, and that startup the computer Safe Mode has no effect.
  
  You can try to reset (power off / on) of the router.

  You can delete all data stored in Firefox with a specific area through "Forget this Site" in the context menu of a history entry ("" history > view history "or" view > sidebar > History "") or via the subject: permissions page.

  Using "Forget this Site" will delete all data stored in Firefox in this area as bookmarks, cookies, words of past, cache, history, and exceptions, so be careful and if you have a password or other data from this area you don't want to lose so take note of these passwords and bookmarks.

  You can't recover from this "forget" unless you have a backup of the files involved.

  It has no lasting effect, so if come back you on such a 'forgotten' site, then the data of this Web site will be saved once more.

How am I able to access a screen where it allows me to enter a new administrator password that I just bought this computer? I bought it used but still in the box with everything

  Hello

  Look in the box that was delivered with your PC being used and if the owner had created a Windows 8 password resets a USB flash drive or CD.

  If password reset media are not available, use external recovery support HP which should have been created on DVD or USB stick. You have the external HP recovery support?  Before using the HP recovery media, be sure to boot into the bios and disable secure boot and turn on legacy mode.

  If you don't have the external HP recovery media that her you should be able to start in the HP Recovery Manager and create the recovery media if it has not been previously created.

  If the tips above are not viable, then contact HP support and ordering a set of HP recovery disks.

  On this path, it is not easy to say what can be the problem and just inquiry may help, but from your description, I'm afraid that there are some critical material damage. It may be something wrong with the power supply (motherboard) or perhaps is the grilled CPU if you have done something wrong with the thermal paste.

  Sorry, but I think you should contact the partner customer Service in your country and check it properly.
