• the Windows Firewall has stopped working

  I tried the system restore to just before it stopped working

  Hi geoffrey,.

  System restore would have been my first suggestion, so that was an excellent choice on your part.  I would try it again maybe a few days earlier just to be safe, he did not start before you really notice or before, it became clear, as it is certainly the simplest answer, but frankly, I doubt that it will be more effective (but who knows - he can come back works perfectly and we are both happy, it was considered).  He also suggested that you know a little about computers, so I can provide instructions that contain everything you need but I will not go into nauseous detail unless you get stuck on a step and then you should post any problem you encounter and I will provide more help.  If you should post, don't forget to answer as many questions and include both the results of the proceedings or reports or copies or screenshots of screen that you can at the same time, so we can work on what to do then if none of this made the turn.

  How do you know if what she has stopped working?  Do you have an error message (if so, what was the full and exact message Word for Word, including all codes)?  You have more than one firewall installed on your system (like that which is part of Norton Internet Security, Comodo, or something else)?  What security programs do you use and that you have installed (all names and versions)?  What version of Windows you are using (for example, 32-bit Vista Business SP2 or other - please be precise otherwise)?  When this occurred and did you a software or a hardware changes (additions, deletions, upgrades or anything like that) since two weeks before the problem (if so, precisely what has been done in as much detail as possible)?

  Do you get this Center security or firewall Windows itself?  If you are using XP, post back with answers given that there is a limit to the options how can I cover without knowing the basic information.  If you use Vista or W7, go to Security Center or action center and check to see if there is a problem with the notification of the firewall or it's on.  If it's not on, it shows the details or links containing information about the problem?  If Yes, go to these links and copy the information and post here, so we can look at.

  Then go into firewall Windows itself (on the left side of the screen) and confirm that there is a problem.  If she too says it is disabled, click on change settings.  Make sure the firewall is turned on - if not turn it on, click on apply and then click OK and confirm that it starts and begins to work.  If it does not start, it provides an error message (If Yes, what is completely and exactly Word for Word with all codes)?  Click Advanced, and verify that all network connections are checked - make if all are not and click OK, then again try to turn on the firewall.

  If this does not work, go to start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Services and then highlight the Windows Firewall and click Open.  Click dependencies and go to each of them and make sure they are started and automatic.  Otherwise change it to automatic and start them.  If it is impossible to do, check their dependencies and do the same until you reach the end of the chain of dependence.  Now return to Windows Firewall and make sure that it is set to automatic and started.  Then restart.  When the system returns, return to the service and confirm that the Windows Firewall is started and automatic.

  Now, go into Windows Firewall and again try to launch and see if it lights.  Go to the center of security or Action and check that the firewall is enabled and works.  If so, the problem can be solved.  Just to be sure, restart and check the firewall to ensure that it is on and working.  If so, who should be the one.  But we do not know why it stopped, and if the problem may come back, then we must redouble efforts to find the cause or confirm that there is no problem.  Moreover, if the above did not work and Windows Firewall is still off, here's what you should do in any case.

  Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer and look for error messages regarding the Windows Firewall (there will be errors).  Look in system first and then in Applications.  When you find the error or errors, click on it for details, copy these details and display them in your next reply.  Well, they can help us identify the source of the problem and there a fix for it.

  We will check your system and hard disk for corruption files and try to fix it:

  Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  , Type sfc/scannow go and let it run.  It will scan and try to the difficulty of some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.

  While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  They tried to set itself to run at the next reboot.   Answer Yes and restart to run the program.  It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.

  Then, we will confirm this is not caused by a malware any.

  Update and run a full scan with no matter what security software you use, and remove or quarantine everything you find.

  First, try the following programs if you do not, because they can help. I recommend you download, install, update and run full scans with Malwarebytes:http://www.malwarebytes.org/ and SuperAntiSpyware:http://superantispyware.com/ and then run a full scan of Microsoft Security:http://www.microsoft.com/security/default.aspx. This may or may not remove the infections, but will probably not correct the damage caused by them. Even if they or your current AV software seem to work or indicate that you are not infected, you should not completely trust in them and must continue with the recommendations that follow (so it's up to you if you want to try them first, or just ignore all this and get help from an expert you really need as described below).

  Correctly and completely remove these infections can be complex and often require manual removal procedures (which may or may not be entirely effective either). Even if they work, I suggest what follows in any case, so that we can start it (you can ignore the methods above if you want it really is the way forward, but it won't hurt to them for trying).

  Please follow these recommendations of JimR1 - MVP compliments:

• Uninstalled the USB root HUB and now computer will not work

  Hello

  Just got a new computer and I'm afraid I might have broke it...

  My computer is a HP Envy 23-c100xt with Windows 8.

  I tried to use one of the ports 3.0 and 2.0 and it wouldn't read my USB, but I tried on another computer so I know this isn't the USB. So I followed some web tips online here and did this:

  Click on start and type device in the search for field, and then select Device Manager uninstall USB root hub

  Restarted my computer and the screen refreshes itself automatically every 4 seconds. Cannot open any program or even go to Manager tasks.

  Help, please!

  Thank you!!!

  Are you sure you don't have anything else? It is difficult to see how to uninstall a device could lead to consequences also as usually convince windows NOT to reinstall the drivers and devices, it is what causes the trouble, not the other way around.

  Uninstalling devices does not lead to what you describe.

• on my desk: Windows Firewall has blocked some features of Firefox public and private networks? What does that mean?

  I turned on my lap and a huge dialog box appears with the message above. I didn't know whether to 'Access' or 'Cancel' then just closed. Please explain.

  Firefox 36 requires the Firefox Windows to create new access rules, and Windows asks if you really want to do this.

  I do not think that these rules are necessary for the current version, but are designed to take account of the features provided in a future release, so you can cancel it just for the moment.

• Spider sometimes works ok, sometimes in the rendering mode.__sleep and hibernation software are not available when the software rendering mode is running

  I have an ASUS K501N laptop.running 7 Home premium.

  Sometimes when I turn on it the office/display is not so strong, if I click on Spider I get a flag your who says run the game in software rendering mode hardware acceleration is disabled or not supported by your video card driver happens whensleep and Hibernate options are not available.

  Other times that everything works correctly.

  Anyone know why and how to remedy

  Hi leflaneur,

  1 when was the last time it was working fine?

  2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  3. when there is no sleep and hibernate options available?

  4. are you able to play other games on the computer?

  Method 1

  I suggest that you enable the acceleration of the display on the computer and check if the game works.

  (a) open settings display by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, customization, and then clicking display settings.

  (b) click on display settings, and then click Advanced settings.

  (c) click the Troubleshooting tab, and then click change settings. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  (d) move Hardware Acceleration complete.

  Method 2

  If the previous step fails, then you will need to download and install the drivers for the graphics cards updates by visiting the card manufacturer's Web site and check if it helps.

• Windows 7 has become my comments login and I'm locked out of admin

  Hello

  I've been running W7 Pro 64 bit very happy for two months. When I installed, I made a user account for me with admin privileges (I'm the only user on this machine). All of a sudden yesterday I noticed that I could not do some things and on investigation found that W7 has become my admin account a guest one. Same account name, icon, the user files, but no right! I did nothing to cause it, as far as I know, it just happened. I don't think it's a virus, Kaspersky certainly is not report anything.

  
  

  I tried to boot from the DVD and by defining the built in Administrator account, but that the command window told me that the command executed successfully, when I restart I see no administrator account. Because I'm the only user I had previously defined netplwiz to connect automatically and I can't disarm that - I just get a window saying 'entry password administrator to run netplwiz' but there is no password box, probably because that there is no administrator account on the system.

  
  

  I seem to be completely locked out from changes to the admin of my system. First thing I will do when I get the machine working again, is to create an alternative admin account to use if it never happens again, but for now, I'm completely stuffed.

  
  

  Can someone help, please?

  
  

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

  
  

  TP

  
  

  UPDATE: I booted in safe mode with command prompt and run lusrmgr.msc to view accounts. Administrator account is here, just can't see on login screens. I thought that the administrator password should be blank (or perhaps the same one that I put in place with my initial admin-level account), so I tried shift-right-click netplwiz and selecting run as another user, and then typing in Administrator and white as well as a selection of passwords possible. No joy. It does not accept any combination of names of users and passwords.

  So, how to use the administrator account?

  Aaaaaargh!

  I have fixed my problem on Windows 7 guest user.  The problem is after I added the computer successfully in my area, I decided to change the name of the computer. So I changed the name and the past of the domain to the working group. After rebooting I connected under the no original domain account, I created, but it was no longer a member of the administrator group and has been labeled as guest user account type.  I had not enabled the administrator account.

  The solution: press F8 at startup for Advanced Startup Options.  Select the option 'Safe Mode with command prompt'.  I was given the opportunity to log on as an administrator, and I did.

  I entered my orders, first to change the admin password then command to activate the administrator account:

  "password net user administrator"-password the password to use.  (Password must meet complexity requirements)

  "net user administrator / Active: Yes.

  Computer restarted and I is presented with the option to connect as administrator.  Connected and managed to create a new account and add to the domain.

• Windows 7 has lost all my settings and started looking for XP

  I have a new laptop with Windows 7 (64-bit). I'm about to install the software, I need for work and customize the settings. Everything worked up to now, when happened the following.

  -J' installed software (nothing special, for example (from a reliable source) existing communication software)

  -J' restarted the computer

  -All my settings for the taskbar and toolbar are lost (they disappear). The button (which is instead of the XP Start button) effectively changed to start button (looks like the XP Start button). The translucent window headers changed to those not translucent (as I'm used to XP). The bar of tasks/toolbar settings won't save any more (even if I register, they go back to an earlier version)

  How can I go back to 'Windows 7' and get my settings? What could have caused this strange behavior?

  I did this before on my own just see if I liked better. I did not so I went back to the Windows 7 look. In your case, there are a few different scenarios that can cause this.

  1. your theme has changed without your consent. -You can fix this with a right-click on your desktop and go to personalize . Change your theme to one that you have registered or by using the Windows 7 default labeled "Windows 7" theme. From there, you can simply add your images to customize your wallpaper.

  2. your Visual effect have been replaced by 'adjust for best results' .

  Open the menu 'Start' and right-click on computer . Go to Properties .

  Near the top-right corner of this window, you should see "advanced system settings" , click on it.

  Click the Advanced tab. Under performance , click settings .

  From here (depending on your graphics card), choose either ' let Windows choose what is best for my computer ' or ' Adjust to improve the appearance '.»» Click OK .

  3. Finally your graphics card driver.<->

  Is not as likely to happen by simply installing a program, but it's not of the unheard. Windows 7 will come back to that look older if somewhat your driver is corrupted and windows is still trying to allow you to use your computer. If you uninstall or damage your driver (ex installed a new graphics card) your computer can use graphics embedded gives you the possibility to use some of the nicer features of Windows 7 like the transparency and Aero Peek.

  Again, this is not as often, but if the other 2 suggestions above do not alleviate your problems try to reinstall your graphics card driver.

  http://support.AMD.com/us/gpudownload/pages/index.aspx-> for ATI Radeon

  http://www.nvidia.com/download/index5.aspx?lang=en-us-> for Nvidia

  If you are not sure of this graphic card you have click on your Start Menu , go to the search box and press Device Manager type enter. Click the arrow next to display adapters .

  A drop down menu should appear showing you graphics card. Go to one of the sites above to update or restore your drivers.

• Firefox does not comment based on Facebook on all websites (for example Huffpost): I tried the safe mode, disabling anti-ad... nothing works.

  I can get on FB and post. etc., but sites that use them commenting on do not display comments. I've tried safe mode, re - install Firefox: not to go.

  It's complicated. There are many links in the chain...

  You want to check if Firefox is actually sending a request to Facebook many different servers and receive a normal response? Here's how you can try it.

  While watching the HuffPost (or other) page, press Ctrl + Shift + k to open the Web Console in the lower part of the tab along its top edge, click Network. Then reload the page and network monitor should start to fill with dozens of URL in the order that makes Firefox the application.

  After he calms down, you can scroll down or click on the header of the column field sort by site and search queries to these areas. They were called in the order in my little test, among a bunch of other things:

  • connect.Facebook.NET (script - js)
  • static.AK.Facebook.com (html)
  • s - static.ak.facebook.com (html)
  • www.Facebook.com (html)
  • fbstatic - a.akamaihd.NET (images and scripts)
  • Profile-fbcdn - a.akamaihd.NET (images)

  For example, if there is no request to connect.facebook.net, then a script blocker or a blocker Tracker can kick in. If there is no request for html pages, then the script could be at fault or another type of block can be considered.

  Note: I stay connected on Facebook, so being connected may have some influence on this point that I'm not aware of.

• I can no longer connect to the internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari, but Opera still works.

  I tried to reinstall Explorer also, but no progress... not even in Explorer network diagnostics works. Any ideas?
