I have a 'Word' worm in my computer that devours my sentences.

I have a worm in my computer in 'Word' program that devours the phrases that I'm trying to change this sentence. It is extremely annoying, and the only way I know to get rid of him, temporarily, is to restart the computer. Is there a way to get rid of this worm?  Geoff Gobble

Did you press the Insert key? This can replace the existing text. Press once to insert it. Press twice to reverse the setting.

  • I have a new cookie on my computer that I've never seen before

    I have a new cookie on my computer that I've never seen before.  When I run adaware it appears.  I would like to know if I should leave or try to get rid of it and what is its role.  Thanks for your help.

    I would lrecommend fall AdAware (Lavasoft I guess) and download, install, update and perform analyses of the complete system with:

    Remove everything they find, even this cookie.  Reboot when necessary.  (You can uninstall one or both in fact - if you hold one, I recommend MalwareBytes.)

    Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

    If it's a cookie, it is safe to delete.  As to what that is, you need know what web page you want to that it puts on your machine (opening the cookie and read its content would definitely help with that).

    I have MS Word on my old PC with the upgrade of Windows 10. I transferred a document to my new PC and when I try to open the doc with Adobe Acrobat I get a message that it cannot be opened. My new PC has Windows 10 family as the operating system. I have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC on my new PC. Why Acrobat won't open and allow me to edit the doc? Do I need a different Acrobat?

  • Problems with word and PDF after computer crash. Error "user has access privileges."

    Problems with word and PDF after crash

    My computer crashed and I had to run the recovery disk, the repair option, so he could run again. It does not format my computer but I had to re - install several programs. I reinstalled my copy of office for example.  I have an external hard drive where I put most of my files but since installing the recovery disc, it does not open some Word documents and gives a message error "user has not access privilege." It's the same thing with some pdf files. What can I do?  Please help because I can't open some of my documents from the University.

    Hello world
    I would like to just say thank you for your help and the problem is now solved.  In the end I paid someone to sort it out.  He explained that it was something like permissions for some of my files were owned by my old operating system and after that my computer crashed and I had to put through the recovery disc these permissions have been lost.  He told me that he had a program that looked for the old existing and re-installed.
    Thank you.

  • I have a new HP Envy with Windows 8 desktop computer that still does not run properly. I rebooted, restored, ran chkdsk, sfc/scannow, uninstall/install update etc...

    I have a new HP Envy with Windows 8 desktop computer that still does not run properly. I have rebooted, restored (im doing this), ran chkdsk, sfc/scannow, malware, virus, uninstall/install etc and my machine wil always do not run for a long time without going through some sort of problem after an hour or two.  Can anyone suggest what to do about this? I read a lot of information online on all the windows 8 and fixes bugs, etc, but anything Microsoft/Windows, which ensures its customers, a hotfix or compesating their customers with software that still works. This isn't a hardware problem, and I can't keep day and bad shooting and trying to fix the day things in?

    Sincerely,
    A client who is a loss for words.
    Here are some problems in no particular order.
    1.) apps to not install it, and/or Windows saying they are when they are in fact not. The fix to install / uninstall, or get on the site of windows directly in general does not, and or does not at all.
    The change permissions 2.) does not work on files that you should be able to access in changing oxnership, permissions, etc.
    3.) Google chrome won't let me access my account of microsoft (or fact rarely) trying to access assistance. But internet Explorer doesn't?
    Randomly will increase from Internet 4.) a previous connection wired to wireless to a reboot.
    5.) my 8 'key' windows was only shown to me after that I have let Windows scan my machine online? Why? I paid for this... I restarted it and it says: service not available (it worked the third attempt which was 1-3 minutes after the initial analysis). Windows only showed my product ID not the key. I know that my victory. 8 was OEM when preinstalled I bought it new, but why didn't we files on it that had nothing to do with activation, appearing on dates for three weeks, or so before I bought it. What is the 'activation of the factory'?
    6 :) Windows Essentials does not hang for a long time, and the troubleshooterprogram of update simply does not work (I had to go to the website to try tp operate, the bluetooth functionality is not good that there is an error.
    7.) windows scan and repair gets stuck at 27% (Im not the only one with this problem).
    8.), avery MS Office 2013 Disappears so often and not easy to reload "we have encountered a problem.
     

    The computer manufacturer is responsible to see that it works properly with Windows 8. It says that it is a new computer I contact HP and make these problems their. If you don't get satisfactory results I turn and look elsewhere for a computer. Hope this helps and if you need another post to help and we will be happy to help you.

  • If I have a Mac for Christmas, I'll be able to move my subscription from the computer, I have now, to the new Mac computer?

    In other words, if I decide to move from a laptop to a MacBook, can I keep the same subscription, stop using the programs on the old computer and start using the programs on the new computer?

    You can have both. Your subscription allows you to have two machines connected to use your subscription, so you can keep the old one as a backup if you wish.  If not, just log out of it so that you have the sign available for another computer if you want to use.

    With regard to obtaining the software on the new machine just install it downloads in the same way that you did using Mac.

    Download/install the desktop application, connect and install applications subscription.
