How to recover bookmarks - cannot add, restore files or import even after restarting the pc and remove reinstall Firefox?

Bookmarks have disappeared. Cannot add new bookmarks, import from another browser, open the previous bookmarks file. I tried the solutions in Help and troubleshooting without success. CCleaner doesn't work anymore when it comes to Firefox. I've used this for years with the problem. Everything else seems to work.

Problem solved by synchronizing with my cell phone. None of the solutions in "Help" has solved the problem. CCleaner now work again.

  • Error 2: The system cannot find the specified file. Even after restarting the Printer Spooler service

    I tried all of the suggestions posted and have had no success in restarting my print spooler. Help, please.

    Original title: I tried to restart the print spooler as directed, and he returned the error 2: the system cannot find the specified file. He does that and is it fixable?

    @Winston Microsoft M committed Support Engineer 'expert '.

    I can see your response that you did take the time to reproduce the problem and then try your own ideas to check if the problem persists.

    Here is what I suggest to you, so you can learn how XP actually works:

    Start in the XP Recovery Console or Safe Mode, so Windows File Protection does not run.

    Rename your file c:\windows\system32\spoolsv.exe you can remember (such as spoolsv.bak).  Now, the file is "absent".

    Restart normally.

    Then try to start the Print Spooler Service and you will see the error.

    So why don't you follow your own advice and run SFC and troubleshooting automated (as you suggested) and check if the problem persists.

    Please report your results.

    When you see that it does help and that SFC does not replace the missing or damaged file (in the system32 folder) and that the automated troubleshooter does not help, will sing it a different song (we hope).

    Don't forget to rename your spoolsv.bak to spoolsv.exe when you're done messing around autour.

  • desktop.ini files are showing even after masking the BONES protected files and they are everywhere

    Everything is almost described in the title

    Out of nowhere this "desktop.ini" file started appearing in almost all of the folders and delete them changes icons of folders where they exist in the settings and I found that the only way to hide them is to hide one in each folder specially after finding that they are not considered "BONES protected files" by the system or it was to hide just after masking "Protected OS files" but cache the one by one is not the best option to consider, although unlike the real "desktop.ini file" in the Users\User\Desktop folder that is considered protected operating system file and mask normally with the protected operating system files.

    Now, I want to just hide in a process that is not separately if possible please.

    For more details:

    -The content of the original "desktop.ini" file in the Users\User\Desktop folder is different from those non-hidden other those as follows:

    Contents of the Original file:

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    [. ShellClassInfo]
    LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-21769
    IconResource=%SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-183

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    No hidden files content:

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    [. ShellClassInfo]
    IconResource = D:\Softwares\Icons\Metro Collection\Metro_Tiles_1\Metro ICO\System Icons\OTHERS\OTHERS\Journal.ico,0
    [ViewState]
    Mode =
    Vid =
    FolderType = generic

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Comment: The "IconResource' location changes depending on the icon of the folder where the file exists.

  • Cannot delete mp4 in windows vista, even after changing the property.

    Hello

    I tried all the methods in the solution given in windows vista to remove off the mp4 files from destop. but each time, he said the necessary authorization.

    I had changed the security for the property for full control rights. but always impossible.

    can you please advice me how to do?

    Hi oscarpooh,

    This only happens with MP4 files?

    The following could prevent you from deleting the file.

    Ø if you do not have the adequate rights for a file or folder, you cannot remove it.

    O if not create you the file, you may not be able to delete it, even if it appears in the Public folder. If this is the case, you must ask the owner of the file to delete.

    O in addition, you cannot remove a file (or the folder that contains it) if the file is currently open in a program. Make sure that the file is not open in any program, and then try again to delete the file.

    Why can't I delete a file or a folder?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/why-cant-I-delete-a-file-or-folder

    I suggest you try the following steps:

    Ensure that you do not play the file when you try to remove it.

     

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode and then try to remove

    Start the computer in safe mode, to do this, follow the steps below,

    Access the menu advanced startup options by turning on your computer and pressing the button F8 before Windows starts. In the advanced startup options select safe mode

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

    Step 2: The corruption of the file system prevents access to the file

     

    You will not be able to delete the file if the file system is damaged. To resolve this problem, run the Chkdsk utility on the disk volume to correct any errors.

    Run the disk check to repair bad sectors on the hard disk.

    a. Click Start, in the start search bar type cmd, right-click on the command prompt icon in the box programs and then click Run as administrator.

    b. at the command prompt, type chkdsk /f and then press ENTER.

    Now, type chkdsk/r

     Note: CHKDSK would attempt to recover bad sectors on the hard disk, in the course of this process there are chances of DATA loss from that particular area.

  • Cannot start the services automatically after restarting the computer and also unable to define themes.

    Original title: My Services do not start automatically

    I've implemented all Services on 'Automatic', but when I restart the PC, they do not themselves. This is problematic because of the themes won't start not and my PC theme returning to 'classic '. Does anyone else have this problem, if so please help.

    More info, please ask.

    Thanks in advance

    In fact, the problem persisted due to the fact that:

    1 'Windows Cache of police service' was running, so I disabled it.

    2. "Windows Presentation Foundation Font Cache 3.0.0.0" also ran, so I disabled too.

    After disabling these two services, then by restarting the PC, he was back to normal and show to the it's the best.

    For those who need help, these are the instructions.

    Click Start, type "run" in the search box and click Run and enter "services.msc" and click ok. Once you've done that are looking for the two services above, located once double click on the first found, and in the drop-down list next to "Startup Type" choose "disabled", and then click on apply and then ok, do this for the second service also. Once that is finished, restart your PC, and I hope that your problems must be solved.

    Also, I think that it is better to download the "Free Window Registry Repair" of http://download.cnet.com/Free-Window-Registry-Repair/3000-2086_4-10606555.html.

    Install and click on "Full Scan" and after it has completed (this may take a while) click on "Error Correction".

    After all this, your computer must be at its best.

    I hope this helps someone.

    Thanks for all the help.

  • Cannot add .article files...

    Anyone else having issues now? We cannot add .article files in the DPS portal. Everything is 'frozen' now.

    Help

    With the exception of a few posts here on the forum, we have no indication, it is a widespread problem.

    I tested a few times in the last two days and it never failed.

    If you try to download an HTML article, you can call the assistance of the company with the source files, it's probably the best way to replicate and to investigate.

  • Deleted some files in the windows directory a few reasons, after restarting the system. showing a victim of COUNTERFEIT windows. How to reactivate my windows?

    Hi all

    I bought Lenovo laptop 10 months before staple. Today in my system, a malicious program "Progressive Protection system" is automatically installed. As a result, I searched the Internet and deleted some files in windows directory in C drive. Now after restarting the system, it's popping up a message stating "you are a victim of counterfeit windows. Even I have validated my window in internet with options available always is saying that my window is not genuine. Don't know how to turn it back on. If someone can help with this problem?

    I suspect that the problem is that the malware is still present - a repair installation will not get rid of it.

    @Prad_121

    Please follow the directions for the RDO and run the analysis offline so you can - at least, so we can be reasonably sure that the machine is free of malware.

    Once completed, please post a new report MGADiag.

    It seems that something has been added in the folder on the drive. I would recommend http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.htmluninstalling the program, running, removing any left over parts of the record player (this could be the problem), reboot and reinstall. If all goes well, that solved the problem. Future questions about the player, you should consider asking in the forum of reader, is not.

  • On another PC I want to save my favorites, but my browser Firefox does not work how can I make the backup, before I reinstall Firefox

    On another PC I want to save my favorites, but my browser Firefox does not work how can I make the backup, before I reinstall Firefox.
    Firefox cannot renew its tabs and now won't run and let me do a backup

    This may be considered to be solve my problem.
    I decided to uninstall the rogue program Firefox download and reinstall the same version (No. 8). I used Windows XP Add Remove programs who asked if I wanted to save the settings of Firefox until I uninstalled Firefox. I said yes and operated with the uninstall. I couldn't find a Firefox 8 so I went for the 12 version and installed on the laptop. This version 12 now works with all the passwords one favorite of the uninstalled 8.

  • Error "Windows Setup cannot continue. To install windows, click ok to restart the computer, and then restart the installation. "When you try to install Windows.

    How can I configure my windows 7 after restoring my laptop to the factory conditians?

    My laptop had a blue screen and I couldn't get rid of it, I went into safe mode and restore my computer to factory conditions. When the computer says "the installation program starts services" you stop and I couldn't turn it back on for 15 minutes. When I turned on and tried to contained my setup, a message keeps poping up "the computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error." Windows Setup cannot continue. To install windows, click ok to restart the computer, and then restart the installation. "But no mader, how many times I reboot my laptop, the same message appears. What should I do? I've restored my computer several times and never had this problem.

    You should try another recovery.

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.
