• How to analyze and clean errors and/or corrupted files that interfere with the operation of the computer

  I have problems with the slow startup and shutdown and the appearance of the desktop with icons of different size with occasional erratic behavior and unexpected reboots which lead me to believe that I probably have a few errors or corrupted files.

  The system is a gateway E6100 recently updated from XP to Vista Home Premium with upgrade software.

  Is there a software out there that I can use to clean the entire system?

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• where to save the files under options the file name is duplicated how to remove an additional folder with the same name

  Under Options in Firefox, I clicked on save the files under downloads, but the file name twice and an additional file with the same name is created in the folder, i.e.:

  G:\Akbar's Songs\HAMARA DOWNLOADS\HAMARA FORUMS DOWNLOADS FORUMS

  As you can see the file repeats, how can I fix it?

  Also the music files, I download from a site of downloads as a WinRar file and I need to open it. Y at - it an option where the file opens automatically in the folder I chose?

  Thanks a lot for your help.

  Hi Akush, when you install 7 - zip, make itself the default application to open .zip and .rar files. So if you double click on the .rar file, it should open in 7 - zip. If you prefer to decompress immediately, right click the file and look for new 7 - zip items in the menu. I can't think of a way to do this automatically, however.

• Can delete you the files that end with .chk and also a file called PP11Thumbs.ptn

  I'm trying to clean up my computer and laptop hard drive.

  I noticed in a folder called my works in the laptop hard drive called PP11Thumbs.ptn - I did a little research - but not too sure if it causes problems with the operation of the system.

  The other problem is the .chk extension - Fragments of recovered files (.) (CHK)

  I saw on google registry cleaners - but I don't do them not trust.

  Thanks to you all.

  Hi Melissa,

  Please contact Microsoft Community Forum. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to help you. I'll guide you to the topic to delete PP11Thumbs.ptn and .chk files.

  . PTN files are used by a program called paper Port. So, if you use paper Port program, then you may need to check with the help of paper Port of the seller about this file matches.

  The. CHK files are safe to remove it from the computer. You can use Disk Cleanup to do.

  Using the windows-related issues feel free to post on the Microsoft Community Forum.

  I wish you happy and prosperous new year.

• Open a PDF file that comes with the application

  I need to be able to include a handful of pdf with my application that can open the app, or Adobe call. Where should I store these PDF files in my project to be able to access it through adobe? I have to copy the files to the directory shared first? I don't want to do, but if I do, where to keep these PDF files at the start in my project structure to be able to find them in my code?

  You should be able to include them in the public / directory instead of native /, which will make them visible outside your application.

  To do this, when you specify a entry, you can include the public attribute = 'true' and need that to happen.

  I uninstalled Nero 8 on my system (Windows Vista Edition home premium, 64-bit dell 1737 studio system); but several Nero files are always stuck in my registry. How can I remove them without destabilizing the system? Thank you.

  Yes, Nero is a software that I hate. I liked Nero until 6 version, I think, but after the Version 8 and 9, it was pathetic.

  2 years ago I had uninstalled a lot of software and there were many many registry entries obsolete - when a search I found that a member of a forum on the Web recommend CCleaner.

  Used from 2 years - each time without making registry backups. He never did wrong with my two PC - Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 SP1 (previously Windows 7 RTM).

  The registry cleaner is fantastic.

  In which case you can try it, here's the download link.

  WARNING: Installation be sure to uncheck the installation of Google Chrome options.

  CCleaner automatically prompts you to create backups of registry before she cleans up the registry. The choice is totally yours.

  Or they are corrupt, try to get a new copy and try again.

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

  How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

  What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?
