I find these files in the world

Hello everyone, the person who had my computer in front of me had installed the Nero programs.  Notice files with the icon "Open with" and the file type is "NeroShowTime.files7.dat" found in the files all over my computer.  I uninstalled Nero.  These files are always appear everywhere.  Is the one that has me more concerned: (this is in my user folder, there is also an ntuser.dat file is not sposed to be this one)

Icon - "open with."

name - NTUSER

type - NeroShowTime.files7.dat

size - 10 MB

error message - this file is used by another person or program

I have a computer Dell XP (SP3)

Most of the other files I find of this type that I can delete sometimes, those in my Windows\Temp folder delete, but when I check the file I have this file orig that I deleted and now I have 5 copies of all these files.

Help!     I ran Malwarebytes, Eset, Symantec (SEP) Diskcleanup is what is on my computer

Thanks, JD

I don't know what you mean by the icon "open with."  It seems that if the previous user was associated with the file extension "DAT" Nero. Instructions to undo this association is at the bottom of this answer.

The "DAT" file extension is a very common extension.  Most of these files are files 'DATa' and not intended to be opened by the casual user.  You really shouldn't be deleting random files like that.  There is a good reason that you could not remove the ntuser.dat files - it is a part of the Windows registry that specifies a large number of your Windows profile information.

If by 'Eset' you mean that you have run the Eset online scanner, it's OK.  If you mean that you have Eset NOD32 Antivirus, then you have too many antivirus applications (I delete MS in favour of NOD32, but see the next paragraph).

Many people would deem prudent to completely reinstall Windows on any computer you get used.  Not sure what's on this computer and this is the case, what you know not certainly can harm you - in addition to a.

Most Dell computers come with a score of 'hidden restore '.  What you want, they are #2 or #3 on this page--> http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/kcs/document?docid=52182 back up all the files you created, since you got the computer before restoring to original factory State.

Here are some useful tips of long date MS MVP PA Bear:
*********************************************************************

Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything in the list below, in order, before connecting the machine to the internet or a local network (i.e. other computers) and before you plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external computer diskotherwise:

 

  1. Make sure that the Windows Firewall is enabled.
  2. Uninstall all now invalid Norton, McAfee, etc., free version of test which was also reinstalled, run the appropriate removal tool (see below), and then install an application antivirus of your choice (for example, http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/default.aspxMicrosoft Security Essentials- free). [This does not apply to Symantec Endpoint Protection; this product is not likely to have been offered as a "free trial" and the Norton Removal Tool should not be used with seven].
  3. Arrival to Windows Update & get the computer fully patched.


TIP: Use another and negative computer to download programs for, for example, SP2 or SP3 installation, the installer for your new anti-virus application and or other removal tools cited below. Transfer these files to CD or DVD (not a flash drive) and then transfer the files of the CD or DVD on the desktop of the computer you are using.

http://groups.Google.com/group/Microsoft.public.WindowsXP.General/MSG/a066ae41add7dd2b

VERY IMPORTANT! => Any Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You need TO uninstall the free trial AND download/run the removal tool appropriate BEFORE installation of updates, Windows Service Packs or IE upgrades AND BEFORE installing your new antivirus application (for example, Microsoft Security Essentials - free).

**************************************************************************************
Considering that Symantec Endpoint Protection is installed mainly on the company's computers (that is, not the personal computers), the initially configured COMPUTER company service computer may have removed the ability to restore the computer to its factory condition.  If this is the case, you can get from Dell recovery media.

If for any reason you decide not to reinstall Windows, you can unbind of DATS with NERO as follows:
Open Windows Explorer
Click Tools > Folder Options
Select the File Types tab
Select the DAT extension in the list
'Remove' Association or click 'Restore' (if it is available).

    The iPad does not support USB keys. There are some wireless flash drives that can be used, but not the classical records. I suggest you transfer files to a computer and their synchronization then back to the iPad via iTunes.

  • Error message when you try to download Windows Defender: "first remove Microsoft Client Protection." Cannot find this file through the Add/Remove, search, including hidden or Win Explorer.

    Original title: trying to download

    WinXP SP3, Security Scan run and d/ld: error message when you try to download Windows Defender: "first remove Microsoft Client Protection." Cannot find this file through the Add/Remove, search, including hidden or Win Explorer. What to do now would be much appreciated.

    Also have a related problem about MS Maliciouws software removal tool. For download, but read in the KB that: in XP, the vacuum cleaner will remove the malware, but doing so may trigger the File Protection Win with damages to my operating system.  the tool will attempt to repair the damage, but to rehabilitate prior to infection, that I need to insert the CD of Win. As my computer came with Windows preinstalled, I do not have a disk and will not take the risk of damage, that I can't fix. Do I not download or not... ? Another solution... ?  I also fear that this tool could settle into the routine Win Update and need guidance on the prevention of this facility, if possible, or what to do if it cannot be prevented.

    It can have nothing to do with any of the foregoing. " I'm relaying only because it occurred during the same mission of update: had msg of error that Win Firewall has not been set as a default, which reset, but found this hidden file when searching for the Protection of the customer: "Win 32/Hackdef' - it was a config with the extension ini file and was deleted by Scan."

    Hello

    ·         You have Microsoft Security Essentials on your computer?

    If you have windows installed on your computer security essentials, then you will not be able to install Windows defender. Windows Security Essentials has antispyware component installed.

    You get the error because you have installed MS Security Essentials, which has its own function to antimalware. You don't need or want to install Windows Defender, too. Leave MS Security Essentials installed and do not turn it off.

  • Cannot find resource files in the MIDlet

    My Mission:

    Take my existing j2me application and compile and run it into the RIM JDE so that he qualified for the BlackBerry App World.

    What I've done so far:

    I took my j2me MIDlet application and copied in Eclipse (with RIM JDE plugin). I finally got to the point where he found my class main MIDlet, compiles and runs. Yes!

    Problem:

    Unfortunately, all references to image files are lost. Therefore, any references to these files throws an exception.

    More information:

    All my image files are in the 'res' folder (a little less 'src' in the hierarchy tree). I tried to move the images to different folders, but without success. And I also tried to reference the same image in different ways files: "/ res / image.png", "res / image.png", "/ image.png", "image.png".

    Has anyone out there successfully developed a MIDlet using the RIM JDE? Any help is appreciated! -Jason

    Thanks for the suggestion! It lead me to a solution...

    Although I tried to add the res folder to the path of the front structure, it seems that he was in the wrong place. Or, at least, that's what it seems, because everything I did to make it work was to create a new "res" folder from a level to the high (just below the project and at the same level as the 'src' folder) and move my picture files in this folder. I added this file to the project build path, then my reference to "/ res / image.png" worked!

    And, Yes, I have the MIDlet leaves the Netbeans environment.

    Hello

    There is no other choice to extract the file from the computer.

    However, you can use your favorite search engine and look for any third party software that can help you recover the file.

    Note: Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be resolved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    You can only include a flood a/s (no class files).

  • When I do a file search he finds all files with the same keyword, I'm on windows 7

    File search only returns a file name in the search when there are several files whit the same keyword as I entered, this just started to happen.  When I typed a keyword in search it returned previously all files with the same keyword, now it returns only one of the files?

    Thanks for your suggestion, I'll give it a try and get back to you.

    I agree about the garbage, I got several questions on my HP Desktop & Windows 7.  My system crashed once, he took over at Best Buy, they told me my operating system has been altered, but could not tell me how to reload my OS unless I paid them $ 125 for the info.  In any case, I took my corrupted HP back at home plugged and it started as nothing is never past, sickening!

    The correct method is to migrate. Use the migration assistant in the Utilities folder.

    However migrate doesn't have the fine selection you're after, if you do not want the entire folder like documents.

    You could find to manual aperture and copy the sparsebundle to Time Machine works ok... Use just traverse other disks of the main options of TM TM it in the dock.

    It might not allow you to recover files but I found that I could copy them into TM and then paste the files by jumping out to finder.

    Or you can migrate to another place is to say USB drive plugged into the computer and then retrieve files in a simple copy and paste... Although permissions can be a pain, and you must correct them before you can copy stuff to your own computer files.
