get rid of the pop up when starting

With the help of Visa Home Premium, I have a pop-up when running startup.  It says unknown program with backup application.  I can find it in the history, but not in active programs.  I know there is a way to do this in regedit, but I do not remember the keys on which.  If anyone can help?

Thank you

  • How to get rid of the icon buttons when you type?

    Could someone explain to me how to get rid of these little icon buttons that keep popping up on the screen when I use my keyboard. Read on this forum that they are something to do with "apps"?

If so, how do I "turn off" those little buttons, which appear in the bottom right of the screen and above? Can someone advise me on this?

    There is also a tin can that appear on the screen as when I use my keyboard, something "iCloud rental", with the word "done" there commit to get rid of this box. Can someone tell me how to stop this box from appearing when I type...

    You talking about icons like below?

  • How can I get rid of the security warning when viewing Web pages

    I recently received a security window pop-up asking if I want to view only Web pages delivered safely. How can I get rid of this and why I see this all of a sudden

    Hi Elizabeth,.

    I don't know why he suddenly began occurring - maybe it was an update or something you have installed.  It may be a corrupted system file or maybe even malware. It is very difficult to tell without extensive trials.  But let's focus on the most likely solutions.  Later, if you want to go back to the 'why', we can make some procedures to test potential causes (although if the problem is resolved, it can be very difficult to identify the cause because it can be fixed or repaired money) - but I'll be happy to go there with you, if you want to.

    In Internet Explorer, go to Internet Options / Security / Internet / Custom level / then highlight near the bottom in the section, until you get to "Display mixed content".  My guess is that it is defined at the command prompt (which is the window that you see).  You have three choices: you can leave things as they are on command prompt and decide in each case what you want to do (which is how I have mine set up - it really is not so common).  You can click on Enable and IE automatically displays pages with mixed content and no prompt.  You can click on disable and IE will display not these pages (and will probably give you a screen indicating the reason and you must then choose somewhere else to go or perehaps click on the back button to go to the page that brought you to this page to see if there is no indication to choose one type of content and avoid the problem (although I've honestly never seen such an option).)

    For what it's worth, I almost always approve unless I'm on an unknown site where I already feel uncomfortable for a reason-so I can choose to refuse to approve and give up everything I did and move on (but it happens so rarely I honestly don't remember not that last time who had held-) It has been several months at least.

    If this does not work (or it has not been set to prompt), do you know where this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/76905-system-restore-how.html.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re-install any software and updates that you have installed and uninstall any software that you have removed between now and the point of restoration, but you can use Windows Update for updates.

    I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and, if you can provide me with some links to these sites (I don't remember those where it happened to me) so I can further research and to test the results.

    Thanks and good luck!

  • Cannot get rid of the pop up windows

    Hi, I removed my Media Gallery because if gave me a lot of errors, or it would freeze my computer.  I went and deleted all VAIO applications because I do not use them, but now I get this message "Windows cannot find ' C:\Program Files (x 86) \Sony\Media".» Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again. »

    Hey Brenlizz,

    What could be the problem, is that the program tries to start at startup, but since it is impossible to find the program error occurs.

    A solution would be:

    Open the start menu and type "msconifg" into the search bar. That must put in place the program system Configurtion.

    Go to the Startup tab and look for all programs with the VAIO or Windows Media Gallery.

    If you are able to find them, uncheck the box for this problem, it should disable start at startup, and hit apply.

    This should fix the pop up question.

    I hope this has helped!
