Having difficulty to remove the Windows Recovery Console

I followed the instructions on how to do it, but the cmdcons folder could not be deleted. Some files are in use? I installed the recovery yesterday with "Combo Fix" console after having a suspected virus. I wish to remove the console now but could not get the deleted file.

I recommend that you do not delete it. Recovery Console can be very helpful in situations where you have errors in the file. It works essentially as a back-up allows to replace the files and fix some errors. You can change the amount of time boot options at startup, which speeds up the overall starting your computer. I have mine at 5 seconds. I know what I want to do before I turn on the computer and therefore do not need the options for the default value of 30 seconds.

I know there are a lot of forums tech that allows you to install Combo instruct. Personally I would never put that on my computer. I've seen too many problems to evolve from it in the past.

    How can I access the Windows Recovery Console. The State of KBs Microsoft it may be accessessed to start with the DVD of the OS. However, you provide OS DVD only Toshiba recovery disks. When I boot them it gives only the option to erase all data and restore the original state.

    I have a Toshiba Qosmio F10 running Windows 7 32 bit.

    The reason why I need the recovery console is due to a breakdown of chkdsk which results now it running whenever I start up and hanging each time. Other Articals MS say I can get out of this infinite loop by using the Windows Recovery Console.

  • having difficulty to remove the traits of a media element

    I'm having difficulty to remove a dash of a subclass of the LightweightVideoElement.  Depending on the type of video game through the netstream, I want to remove the line to seek to prevent research with chrome scrub bar.

    My problem is that when I delete the line of the element of the hasTrait method is always returning true.  To demonstrate that I have add a listener in the constructor of the item as follows:

    addEventListener (MediaElementEvent.TRAIT_REMOVE, announceTraitRemoved);

    And my function is:

    private void announceTraitRemoved(e:MediaElementEvent):void
    {
    trace ("item-> announceTraitRemoved-> LINE DELETED:" + e.traitType + "hasTrait thus:" + hasTrait (e.traitType));

    }

    The output of the function after the call to removeTrait (MediaTraitType.SEEK) is:

    Item-> announceTraitRemoved-> LINE DELETED: get both hasTrait: true

    He never returns hasTrait: false to the seek feature.

    This is problematic because the Pack chrome ScrubBar determines if the air cleaner is turned on by listening to this event in a similar way and using the hasTrait method, so I can't figure out how to turn off the scrub bar.

    What I am doing wrong?  If it's important, I use 1.0 gm.

    Thank you.

    The ScrubBar must be dimmed if the SeekTrait is not present (i.e. hasTrait == false).  If you use the proxy method I described, it should work as you wish.

  • Having difficulty to remove the adware from my computer

    Yesterday I ran a search in google for winzip password recovery which led me to a website called . www zippasswordrecovery.com /. I have AVG Anti-Virus installed on my computer, so I thought that I was safe to download the file. However, once downloaded AVG detected a threat, so I put in quarantine. Apparently it installed on my computer, and of course annoying adware ads popped up whenever I went through Internet. I went to add or remove programs and found (file name is FREEzeFlip), and every time I try to remove it, my antivirus detects a threat and quarantines, preventing me to spend with the removal process. I did a scan with AVG which found nothing, then installed Malware Bytes, which found 6 threats which were all adware and supposed to be deleted successfully. I restarted my computer, browsed the web, and every time I visit a Web site, Malware Bytes gives the message "successfully blocked access to a potentially dangerous website 64.94.137.96 type: outgoing," I guess that's blocking a pop-up every time ad that appears. I went to add or remove programs and Malware Bytes gave essentially the same message as AVG and quarantine. I googled 'remove FREEzeFlip' and found this Web page with technical support information to remove the FREEzeFlip from the computer: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:yvW4QAnD1fYJ:freezeflip.com/support.html+remove+FREEzeFlip&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&source= www.google.com (click on text version if it does not load). It is very obvious that it is intentionally malicious because it says "If you continue to see the elements of the FreezeFlip program on your computer after following the steps in uninstalling above, your antivirus software blocks maybe uninstall completely." and that it proceeds then to tell you can uninstall your antivirus software, visit a link to download an uninstall program and restart your computer. LOL... these idiots...

    Thank you in advance for your help! Sorry for the long story, but I didn't leave out the small details that may be important.

    Help, please!

    Fix MBR can damage your partition tables if you proceed. This could cause all partitions on the current hard disk to become inaccessible. I ran fixboot, but this message persists with fixmbr.

    -The fixmbr command works correctly?
     
    The fixmbr command causes this error message to display on your computer every time that you run the command, regardless of the State of the Master Boot Record (MBR).

    After running the command fixmbr , your computer displays or not the command worked properly. If the command was successful, your computer displays the following message:

  • Different on the MS recovery console administrator password

    When I was with the XP CD recovery console, he asked my password.  When I typed in it, it is incorrect.  However, once I typed in anything, it worked.  I have a single installation of windows, so the first question, which is "what Setup do you access", had only one possibility, of course.  Maybe it was a virus that has changed.  But once I took action, the usual log on screen appeared, and my password worked.  Is the recovery console suppose to do?  Why?  This is my 3rd time only having to use the console. most of them have been guided, anyway.  I'm not familiar with the controls.

    Unfortunately, we do not know much about your system, so we have to endure a round of Q & A to provide the best advice.

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    The XP Recovery Console "must" the XP administrator password, and the default XP administrator password is any password empty or empty, so if you just press the Enter key has the prompt for Password Recovery Console, which usually works.

    The RC will always ask you which installation you want to use - even if you have just a single installation (this is normal).

    Sometimes people may not enter the RC because they do not know, I forgot or never knew their administrator password... then they're stuck - but only temporarily.

    Sometimes the way XP has been installed (as in a store bought system) can thwart attempts to get past the Password Recovery Console.

    If it is your desire, you can configure XP simply do not ask for a password when starting in the Recovery Console.

    If you do a search on the Internet (Google, Bing, etc.) you can find a lot of articles on the use of the Recovery Console.

    Here are some links of Microsoft on RC orders:

  • Cannot access the System Recovery Console invalid password

    System Recovery Console insists that I use a "invalid password". I installed Win7. I make a written record of all used passwords so I'm sure I know the password I put in the first place; It is a simple word, that I always use for low security situations.  However, I tried all variants of logics of this password (upper and lower case, etc.), but nothing works.  I loaded 'ophcrack LiveCD' and found that the password is .  I tried to use no password and this also fails.

    What can I do to pass in addition to "invalid password" so I can't enter the System Recovery Console?

    Thank you.

    Hey Ron,.

    I finally got some time to focus on this and learned something that could explain the difficulties you encounter!

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-happened-to-the-recovery-console

    It seems that the Recovery Console has been taken from Windows Vista (and 7). Personally I did not know this, but then again I don't use it every day! :) So in short, it is not designed to work with Windows 7, and this issue is the result of this.

    Sorry it took me so long to find! I hope that answers your question!

  • How can I remove the Windows, "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" program from my computer

    I use another software Photo and picture Windows and Fax Viewer interferes with my work with the other program. Therefore, I would like to remove the Windows, "Windows picture and Fax Viewer" program from my computer.

    Info for WIndows XP - Windows Picture and Fax Viewer
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    OK... but be careful... you'll lose thumbnails of photos in Windows Explorer...
    your 'My pictures' folder... for example... does not display photos.

    And... FWIW... WP & F Viewer is not a program... it's just a .dll file. Disabling
    the .dll file is basically identical to uninstall. (in this way... If you do not
    as the result... you can reactivate).

    But if "gone forever", that's what you prefer... just delete the shimgvw.dll file.

    Attention last... your thumbnails in the Explorer will be gone.

    How... Disable WP & F Viewer

    Click Start / run and enter the following command:

    Type or copy/paste...
    regsvr32 /u shimgvw.dll
    (Yes, the space after the 2 and you is necessary)

    Press on... Come in...

    (You should see a dialog box indicating:)
    DllUnregisterServer in successful shimgvw.dll)

    How... Reactivate the WP & F Viewer

    Click Start / run and enter the following command:

    Type or copy/paste...
    regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll
    (Yes, the space after the 2 and space after that the i is necessary)

    Press on... Come in...

    You should see a dialog box stating:
    DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in successful shimgvw.dll

    To remove shimgvw.dll go to the following folder and do a right click Delete shimgvw.dll.

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll

    If you can't find the path, you must go to...
    Button start / Control Panel / folder Options.
    See tab /... to check "Show hidden files and folders"...

  • Can I safely remove the Windows.old files?

I reinstalled my drivers and all seems to work fine. I transferred all my data, mp3, jpeg, etc. for Flash readers and/or new programs on the new OS.
