• I did a system restore and boot has changed. The only program that I can open is all the others, that I wonder select the program to use to open with Explorer. What should I do?

  It is no longer a row of icons at the bottom right, and asked me to choose a program to use to open files

  Hello and welcome to Microsoft Answers. It seems that your computer is infected with malware. The first thing you need to do is re - associate your executable files with applications.

  First

  Click Start > run > type cmd in the Run dialog box, and then press ok. On the line of command prompt type "assoc.exe = exefile" without the quotes. If you are unable to open the applications follow the second below.

  Second

  Right click on start > search. Type rundll32.exe in the field of the files to be searched. Choose to search for your main drive (usually C). Select the search hidden files and folder advanced features. Click on the search button to start the search. In the results list, find the associated rundll32 file C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386. Right-click on rundll32 to the left of the directory above and choose 'open file location '. The rundll32.exe file should be highlighted when the folder opens. Right-click on the file and choose copy. Then, in the search results list, right-click on rundll32 which corresponds to C\Windows\system32\rundll32.exe and choose "open file location". Again the file should be highlighted. Right-click on the file and choose Remove. Right click again in a free space in the folder and choose Paste. If this does not resolve your problem, you will need to get a windows OS disk and extract the file from there.

  Once this problem is solved, you will need to perform several anti-malware analysis. You should start with Malwarebytes. Make sure that you update the parser before the scan.

• Updated my computer to Windows Vista Service pack 2 for x 64 function foires systems

  Okay, so I have recently updated this Windows Vista Service pack 2 for x 64-based systems.

  After the update and restarting, I connected only to find myself staring at a blank white screen. However, I managed to hit the keys ctrl + alt + delete and go to the Task Manager to launch explorer.exe through the "new task...". ' button.

  This brings me to my normal desktop, but none to start startup programs and CPU usage is 100% which makes the performance of my laptop more slow.

  Sometimes I try to restart the laptop and it starts normally after the connection, but that happens only about 15% or less of the time.

  Is there a way I could resolve this problem and I function normally again?

  BTW,

  I don't have the CD of Windows Vista or install, so I can't really replace him.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Hi DaColossus,

  Method 1

  I suggest that you perform the system restore before installing Windows vista service Pack 2 on the computer.

  System Restore: frequently asked questions

  Once the service pack 2 for Windows vista is uninstalled from the computer, I would say that repair you system files on the computer by running SFC scan.

• I am repeatedly offered Windows Vista Service Pack 1, even though I downloaded and installed successfully.

  Original title: Windows Vista SP1 64 bit (KB936330) 1.5 MB update.

  I just reformat my computer and am trying to do the update process.  I use Microsoft Vista 64 bit and got most of the SP1 is installed.  TI completed most of it restarted, full of a few other updates and is now stuck on 1 part of the update.

  He keeps asking to install "Windows Vista Service Pack 1 for x 64-based Systems (KB936330) which is a 1.5 MB file.»  I go through the process.  He told me that I downloaded and installed successfully, and then when I hit the button to Windows Update, there is still wanting to be installed.

  I'm sure that this issue has arisen before but most of what I saw refers to the two error codes or problems with the installation of SP1 together.  Help, please!

  I had the same problem, I must have downloaded and installed sp1 about 10 times and there is no way that he was only 1.9 MB.

  I finished downloading it manually from the main site of Microsoft.
  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=30
  Once you are done installing the update and Windows update tent always updated sp1, simply click on "check for updates" at the top left of the window, and who should confirm that sp1 has been updated and it should not try sp1 update more.
  It took about 1-2 hours in total, but it worked for me, hope this helped.
