  Unless your device has been jailbroken, it has not been "diverted." What makes you think that what has happened? What did you do to try to fix your problem?

• How can I find and repair a corrupted registry key

  How can I find and repair a corrupted registry key

  It would be useful to know a number of facts that you forgot:

  1. Windows version, including service pack
  2. Your HP printer model
  3. The error message that you initially received which led you to try the FixIt
  4. The web address of the FixIt tool you tried (NOT FixIt Center home page, but the page where you downloaded or run the FixIt tool).
  5. The full text of the error message on "registry keys corrupted MSI.

  That being said, it seems that if you have installed and then try to uninstall any software related to the printer.  If this is the case, and the printing software cannot be uninstalled from Control Panel > Add / Remove Programs, you can use either the Utility Microsoft Windows Installer Cleanup or (free) Revo Uninstaller.

  Truth in advertising: you may notice that the link to the Windows Installer Cleanup utility is not a Microsoft site.  It's because Microsoft has removed it stating that he sometimes 'cleaned' more that she was supposed to.  Personally, I would use it again, but I would back up the registry first of all, with a restore of the system or C:\windows\eruntpoint.

  After that you have uninstalled whatever it is, you have tried to uninstall, see instructions here: Article 1

• How can I check and delete the corrupted files?

  I was told that my laptop performance could be carried out by missing or corrupt files. I can't find the system check in the Panel, and it is not found when I try to kick it and run. I don't have the original recovery or installation disk disk.

  According to the page I've linked in the other post: Hard Drive16 GB (Solid State Drive Flash Module).  Solid State Drive SSD =

  You can always do another:

  Check and repair corrupt files is to open cmd in the start menu, then right click "Run as Administrator".  Then type chkdsk c: / r

  • If you get an error "Chkdsk cannot run", type in, ChkDsk runs on your next Windows startup

  Who will eventually fix any corrupt system files, but not others.  You suspect corruption in the other or all of the files, then probably the SSD is having problems.  That can be fixed with conventional methods, as far as I KNOW.  Maybe time to replace it with a new SSD or hard drive classic, if possible.  Don't know how HP implimented the SSD in the mini.

  Since there is no DVD/CD drive integrated into the unit, get an external hard drive or USB key and backs up all data that you consider important before things get worse.  You can buy 16 GB flash drives or bigger, so that would be my suggestion.  Just copy everything on a flashdrive before anything else is done.

• How can I check if my computer is ok? I got an unsolicited phone call and allowed them to access my computer

  This morning, I got a phone call from an Asian man, saying: he has worked with microsoft, I found it very difficult to understand what he was saying and to rehearse a lot, he mentioned "Alureon" and says that my computer is one of the computers on crash today... He then wen on say that they should do support remotely. to help solve the problem, stupidly and against everything I've known I have allowed him... .it all seemed very alarming... it said my computer was about to crash in a few moments and I had to buy the red shield to protect... I hung up, but they called back... ultimately I told them I wasn't buying any and at this point, he got quite angry and asked me why I was wasting his time. How can I check my computer to make sure they did not hurt? and they can access my computer later? I'm asuming that Microsft had nothing to do with it.

  Hello

  It's a scam.

  If you gave them remote access and you do Internet banking, contact your bank, explain, and change passwords.

  If you use your online credit card, cancel and get a new one issued to you.

  And the only way that willl you know that you are free to them is to backup your data and do a clean install of your operating system.

  Either these so-called "Microsoft" Tech companies want to sell you a worthless software, or remote access to your computer to try to steal your credit card and bank information and also achieve an identity theft on you.

  Microsoft does not contact you unless YOU have made prior arrangements with them to do.

  There is an article in the link I'm you provide at the end of this one

  Read this Information from Microsoft:

  "Avoid scams to phone for tech support.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/online-privacy/avoid-phone-scams.aspx

  Don't be fooled of unsolicited calls. Don't provide personal information.

  Here are some of the organizations that cyber criminals claim to come:

  • Helpdesk Windows

  • Windows repair center

  • Microsoft technical support

  • Microsoft technical support

  • Windows Support Group Technical Department

  • Microsoft Research and Development Team (team of Microsoft R & D)

• How can I do to repair Windows Vista if I don't have a disk drive & asks me to insert the Windows disk and select Repair.

  I have a netbook with no disk drive that is running Windows Vista.  When I try to turn it on, it tells me that a file is missing or damaged and that I have to install my Windows disk and select repair.  Seeing that I don't have a hard drive on my computer, How can I do to repair vista windows?

  Hello

  Netbooks have the option to reinstall the operating system to when it was new.

  They have a recovery Partition on their hard drives the same as most laptops and desktops...

  You should ask the Netbook Manufactuter for particular key sequence to begin a recovery.

  Some manufacturer's instructions are to press F10 or F11 at startup; others are Alt + F10, etc..

  The installed software doesn't have knowledge written in programming to realize that you have a Netbook and you are unable to insert the disc. That's the way it is written, unfortunately: one size.

  And some more expensive Netbooks now have a DVD player.

  See you soon.

• How can I check my Mac mini for spyware and other viruses

  How can I check my Mac mini for software spyware and other forms of virus? Recently, I received an electronic invoice which seems to come from Apple on a purchase that I did not. Unfortunately, I answered by clicking on a link that asked me to cancel or manage this purchase that led me to a site that didn't look like an official Apple site. I am afraid that simply by doing so, I welcomed the spyware on my Mac mini hard drive.

  My Mac was purchased in 2011 and runs on OS X El Capitan (version 10.11.6).

  Kind regards

  Politkovskaya

  Receive a fraudulent e-mail for a purchase confirmation, you did not is a very common scam. Remember that you are not misled by providing personal information solicited by this e-mail.

  Unfortunately, I answered by clicking on a link that asked me to cancel or manage this purchase that led me to a site that didn't look like an official Apple site. I am afraid that simply by doing so, I welcomed the spyware on my Mac mini hard drive.

  No harm will come of the fact that you wrote. Fraudulent Web sites that are made to appear as legitimate those who are specially designed to convince you to reveal personal information. If you don't have that, no further action is necessary or justified. Do not install anything, no matter the source or the apparent popularity, in response to one such scam. To do this would be the first step in a path well worn to the misery.

  On the other hand, if you were tricked into providing personal information (like your Apple ID and password) you will need to change your password on Apple ID. Please write back for instructions.

• I want to install firefox addon called "youtube video and audio downloader 0.3.5 by Chris. How can I check to see if it has malware

  How can I check if the program 'youtube downloader video and audio by Chris 0.3.5 has malicious software.
  When I go to download it has chain

  I'm so nervous about downloading anything for fear of getting my hijacked browser or worse, because it's already happened twice. Any advice on this program or if there is a similar program to download youtube, who is known to be squeaky clean?

  Too, I have youtube downloader video and audio 0.3.5 by Chris on FF but have not used a lot or not at all. Today, Avast gave me a warning (probably a Malware DB recent update) that this product has very bad side. My two main concerns are a possible Trojan and adware popups - horse for now that I only have those on a single site, The Pirate Bay, but they are devilishly difficult to get rid of.

  Avast and some other malware utilities not come with Trojan horses, but I saw a EULA (on Board of another, may not be the same product) which explicitly stated the software would share information on the internet, probably tunnel through the firewall. Malware utilitie which would detect as a Trojan horse, or that they would assume that I installed it intentionally? How do they know?

  Are modules which arise on the FF Add-ons Manager > get guaranteed by Mozilla addons?

• How can I check my PC for malware and spyware?

  I tried to pay for my subscription to Rolling Stone mag online and when I accessed their website I was attacked at least six viruses and every time I tried to hit the isolate or remove the button the screen change then he said my PC has been fixing crash and I think I hit the button to solve this cos evething disappeared and I closed the compupter and booted back up.  It was a little slow.  But not a lot.  Now, when I click on an icon on the desktop as the icon of IE it flashes on this page for a blink of an eye, then returns to the office page then goes back to the IE page and everything seems normal.  How can I check to see if I have a problem of spyware or malware?  I ran my Avira Personal and it was clean but Avira Personal is not a firewall that I'm not sure he checks that attacked my PC.  I have a Windows Firewall that intercepts the malware etc.  Is there a program in Windows or Microsoft who can check on my PC without having to download something like Microsoft Essentials?

  And those proposed by Thomas, you can also try Mcafee Stinger http://www.mcafee.com/us/downloads/free-tools/stinger.aspx

  Also, if you can get to a practice desktop download, install and run Malwarebytes Antimaleware http://www.malwarebytes.org

• How can I actually email the scan, and how can I check this virus?

  I am currently using Internet Explorer 8 and want to send someone using Internet Explorer 8

  How do I actually email the scan AND how can I check this virus

  Internet Explorer is a Web browser, not an e-mail program... To send messages, you need an e-mail account and the recipient needs an e-mail account. You need to know your email address and you must know the e-mail address of the recipient.

  I am running WINDOWS XP on my desktop and would like it ungrade to WINDOWS VISTA, but I don't know if all my devices are compatible with WINDOWS VISTA! I would like to upgrade my desktop computer for WIN 7, but it would take too many changes, so I'm going to update my laptop for WIN 7 and I have another laptop running WIN XP! So basically I want to have at least one of the three operating systems (XP, VISTA and WIN 7) on my different computers! WIN XP on my laptop older, WINDOWS VISTA on my desktop (currently in XP) and WINDOWS 7 on my laptop latest (running VISTA)! I just want to know how to find out if there is a way to see if all my components on my desktop are compatible with WINDOWS VISTA, but the Advisor WINDOWS VISTA is no longer available? I used the WIN 7 Advisor to check what is required for me to upgrade my desktop PC to WIN 7 but there are too many changes that need to be done! I also used the WIN 7 Advisor on my new laptop and it has only a few changes that need to be done and that is why I want to upgrade my laptop to WINDOWS 7 and my desktop for WINDOWS Vista!
