It makes my computer virtually unusable. Help! Disable windows update in Control Panel does not help

Hello

1 did you changes to the computer before the show?

Method 1: Disable Norton and check if there is no improvement in the performance of the computer.

Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

If the problem is resolved with disable norton, I suggest you contact Norton support for assistance about their virus protection software.

Method 2:

Step 1: Verify functionality in safe mode.

If it works fine in safe mode, try to perform a clean boot by using step 2.

Also perform a virus scan using Norton antivirus application.

Step 2: How to perform the clean boot.

NOTE: Once you check the functionality, follow the suggestions under steps to configure Windows to use a Normal startup state.

  • I'm being invited to update Firefox, but after consultation with the details, I conclude that it can interfere with my Windows XP. How can I stop the guests?

    I always use (and will not update) Windows XP. The details of an update of Firefox indicate that the new version (that I don't need) can interfere with XP. I want to have Firefox stop invites me for an update. How can I do this? I just continue to select "Ask Me later". Is there a more permanent solution?

    Firefox 32.0.3 works great on Windows XP and contains many important security patches - actually, 'night' of pre-release Tester 35 Firefox version works fine, too.

  • Pavilion SLimline s5-1554: can I stop the Windows 10 "free" upgrade does not happen?

    I installed upgrading Windows 10 and worked well for a while. I accidentally uninstalled an update to the Intel driver and a few other programs and restarted the computer. He returned and said he had to do anther windows update - when he finished he stops. I turned again once and nothing. 2 fans to run and it sounds like HARD disk drives to start - but is not complete. Answer sheet Virgin screen, no keyboard or mouse. I went through trouble shooting HP together, removed battery CMOS, popped it (got the blue power lights come back), but still nothing else.

    Read another forum, I see where the free update to win 10 raises motherboards FRY as Μatx H-Joshua H61, 696233-001 motherboard may not consider them.  I wonder if I replace the motherboard, reload the original OS (I already bought the recovery disks from HP that I thought it was my original problem) Windows 8, if everything will be ok.

    I want to stop the automatic upgrade to win 10 again will fry the motherboard.

    Any thoughts or the next steps for action or other help would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Greetings,

    I can barely stomach having a motherboard to fry due to an upgrade of the operating system.

    I guess it's possible, and if it is true, maybe it's time for a class action. You can contact MS support but they will blame HP.

    Was the Intel one driver graphics driver? Use the integrated graphics card?

    If so, you have a slot PCIex16 2.0. Buy a graphics card to modestly low price profile, plug it into the slot.

    If you added discreet graphics then remove the card and try the graphics card integrated.

    Start the PC. You can get the video.

    The motherboard has USB 2.0 supports so pulling the battery and reset CMOS using the jumper pins should correct the problems of USB 2.0.

    This nifty little program,never 10, stops Win 10 upgrades.

    You must use the same motherboard model, that you now if you want to install Windows using the HP recovery kit. The motherboard must be tattooed by HP or HP Recovery kit will fail.

    First try the graphics card option.

    See you soon!

  • Can not stop the Windows Help and Support screen to appear several times

    I tried to us Windows Defender and features WindowTurn on or off programs in vain to stop the Windows Help and Support screen to appear several times offering assistance on everything that I've just selected if it is a selection of function or the word internet. The copy of Vista came with my new Dell laptop. I have another laptop HP with Vista but do not have to go through this on this subject.

    Advice to address this very frustrating situation would be appreciated.

    Hi Maree33,

    Let's run Windows Update and make sure that you have all the latest patches and service packs loaded.  In Internet Explorer click Tools then Windows Update and follow the instructions.

    You can also give a quick call Dell and see if this is a common problem with their OEM version.

    Please let us know the results.

  • 10 for Vista security updates do not settle. Have tried everything I can find on the web, here, difficulty-it... ad nauseam.

    Windows Update tried to install "10 updates important" for several days, and all have failed to install.  I have tried everything I can even, at one point, purchase ImproveSpeed that one of the web pages of Microsoft directed me, claiming that would fix it.  Nothing I've tried has solved the problem and I've tried everything but manually change the registry which I don't feel comfortable doing so.  I spent $ 40.00 for ImproveSpeed and that has not worked... Please, someone, please help.  This is nutz.

    Bob

    Something seems not good.

    Agreed.

    Did you ever get McAfee Security Center updated (for example, definitions)?

    Have you already followed steps #8, #9 & #10?

    You have a functional antivirus application (with updated definitions) installed now?

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Rhea answer Desk technology, was correct: since "Mainstream support" for Vista SP2 ended on April 10, 2012, Microsoft offers is no longer support for security updates.  Similarly, MS has not offered this support to users of Windows XP to the last few years. [Yes, this is all very confusing!]

    PS: If a technician of the Office of response can not get your problem solved in the first 15 minutes (free), they will want to access your computer remotely in order to help you further (in most cases)- but only after you have paid the Premium support fees. Actually, I was very surprised to hear that McAfee won't charge you anything for their support - unless you had already purchased McAfee Total Protection.

  • How can I stop the Firefox 2 tabs open in each window that opens?

    I have spent hours reading all the proposed solutions to this problem and have tried everything that I can to solve this problem, but nothing works. I don't understand the "user.js" references, but I made all the changes to tools and even went to about: config and change some features it on the tabs and the recommended such home page, but the problem persists. I just updated Firefox, too, and it seems that they have not yet solved this problem that is so irritating to all.

    the new tab page will display thumbnails of 3 x 3 of your most visited sites by default - if you want to show him your good home page, you can set that too:

    enter on: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named browser.newtab.url. Double-click it and change its value to Subject: House (or any custom pages that you want to set).

  • I was looking for where firefox downloads files from the web. Everything I can find is the download list window that has only a clear"" button.

    When I download a file from the web, I want to find it in the Windows Explorer window, but don't know where to look. (I use Windows 7 64 bit on an HP Pavillion laptop) Where is - this Firefox download files that it lists in its own small window of download, but you only allows 'Clear' the list, no copy or open, or move the file?
    Where are the actual files to?

    Map of the last file downloaded and saved

    go to the Tools Menu-> Options-> general-> downloads section-> select Radio button option 1 ' save files from "dialog box-> click the"Browse..."button "and from there you can find the exact folder hierarchy where a download was recorded recently.

    If you want to know when a download starts to download and where you want to save the download, performs the following steps:

    go to the Tools Menu-> Options-> general-> downloads section-> place checkmark on "Show the downloads window when downloading a file"-> check out of "close it when all downloads are finished"-> select Radio button Option2 'Always ask me where to save files'-> click OK.

    Check and tell if its working.

  • How can I stop the false Windows folks access to my pc?

    I contacted Erwin: South Africa: once and got the file number . I had to give him my email address and phone number. Helpful chap. It doesn't sort my problem on at the time no problem. However since I received phone calls from several people saying they call Windows. When I contacted my Internet provider that I called the number again and they assured me that Microsoft not phone people. So who is these people who keep calling me? How can I stop it? Telkom said it would not contribute to change my phone number.  I have installed Kaspersky but isn't sure if it's enough.  I had earlier this year also, and a virus still slipped through.

    Hi Annavan,

    Microsoft or our partners make unsolicited phone calls (also known as the telephone canvassing) you charge for security patches or software. These calls will be made by a person with whom you can check that you are already a customer. Cybercriminals often use publicly available telephone directories so they might know your name and other personal information when they call you. They could even guess what operating system you are using. If you receive an unsolicited call from someone who claims to be from Technical Support Microsoft, hang up. We do not have such calls.

    For more information, see the article: avoid tech support phone scams

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  • How can I stop the creative cloud tries to update acrobat?

    Hello

    I currently have a subscription to photoshop and lightroom CC, they are working and update properly.

    I also have a standalone acrobat standard XI which came free when I bought a fujitsu scansnap ix500 (and also another copy with a scansnap sv600), recently creative cloud keeps trying to make me "update" my version of Acrobat DC. I do not have acrobat dc nor I want, my current acrobat does everything I want to do. I don't want to start paying extra for something superfluous.

    How can I get the clouds to stop harassing continually update me, I accidentally chose uninstall several weeks ago, assuming that he would remove the horse - it deleted rather acrobat XI in my system taking all my preferences.

    I tried to reach out on twitter, but for the time being without any resolution.

    Thanks for the research.creative cloud and acrobat.JPG

    Hi, David Hemmings,.

    Based on feedback from users that we set the dialog box in the new Cloud Desktop App creation 3.6 v to show Acrobat as "Try" rather than "Update" If you do not have right to his subscription.

    Kind regards
