For these past few days, whenever I try to use Firefox, I get a pop-up (such as when you update a prorgram) asking if I want to allow Mozilla to make changes to this computer.

I have not changed my security warnings.

The Firefox program folder is located here: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\

  • System Restore cannot run ' do allow you the program following an unknown Publisher to make changes to this computer: rstrui.exe '? "

    I'm trying to run a system restore, and I have Windows 7.  The problem started when Yahoo hacked my Google with Firefox search engine.  I could not understand how to get my search engine to Google, so I tried to do a "system restore."  I get a message from "user account control" who says: ' do you want to allow the program following an unknown Publisher to make changes to this computer: rstrui.exe Editor: unknown origin of the file: hard drive of this computer. "  I think that rstrui.exe is actually the Windows program for the restoration of the system, but I don't think I should get a message like "Editor: unknown."  I ran Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and Spybot, but came to nothing.  If my system restore has been disabled?

    Hello

    This can help you, because these are a few reasons for problems with SR:

    1. If you are using Norton, you should disable Norton inviolable Protection before using the system restore.

    AVG will cause problems with SR too.

    Hi EatonmcMT,

    1. what security software is installed on the computer?

    2 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    I suggest you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

     

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

    Let us know if that helps.
