MSConfig is a utility that allows you to disable some programs and services to debug problems with your system. What you see is what is planned to run at startup, not necessarily what is running. This program is very convenient to turn off a piece of malware that has infected your system long enough to remove it. Here is a description of the use of MSconfig:

When I stopped my computer it says a program runs, but I don't know what it is?
My computer is running very slow and sometimes cold. When I turn it off it indicates that a program still works and I can click 'Cancel' to exit the program, or force a stop down. I force quit cause when I press 'Cancel' I can't find the program. The problem is I have no idea what program it is and I don't know how to find out. As a result the Task Manager, but I don't know what I'm doing and what needs to be stopped. Can you help me? Thank you very much!

So I know that vista comes with cmdlets and Gadgets Sidebar and toolbar quick launch in low next to the button start. Mine also came with this bar that resembled a type of "Favorites" bar, but I don't know what it was called. You can move from top, bottom, left or right of the screen and put a shortened desired in this regard. You can change the color of it and everything. I've loaded ZoneAlarm and AVG and now the "toolbar" (even once, don't know the name) disappeared. Anyone know how to get it back? Thank you very much
If it is above > look in the start menu > programs > software Dell > Dell Dock > or re-download.
If another brand computer > look in their software > under start > programs.
See you soon.

What should I do now that Photoshop CC has encountered an error trying to upgrade. Suggesting to try again does nothing. (49) numbers, but I don't know what that indicates. Help?
It is recommended that I ask for help, who put me here. What I really need, is a customer - not a chat room service!

If someone had a list on the files that belongs in the recovery file, that would for sure. I see some of them at the date of the file. Maybe someone can help me with that. Vista is the computer on which I work. He went down to where he would go and I restored it back then I couldn't he did it again. Thank you. Chuck
Hello
By "file recovery", you mean the recovery Partition?
Who was photographed by the manufacturer of the computer's hard disk and there is nothing to do with Windows or Microsoft.
It is general information on the recovery Partition:
Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.
1. If you want to reinstall Windows from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.
F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.
You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.
2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.
Also ask them how to make records.
Your D: Recovery Drive is should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..
There are backups on an external hard drive.
To fix any problems that have occurred with the D: Partition Recovery, you need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove everything that was added on.
See you soon.

I get the blue screen with the exception of system Service in Windows 8. It seems that many people have of it. I can't use my computer without losing all the data every few minutes. It is brand new. Fix? It often happens with Firefox, but other times too and restarts sometimes when you type an e-mail in the e-mail of Windows 8 program.
For this recent System_Service_Exception error, if you have an AMD graphics card try the next tool from AMD to try to get the latest graphics driver:
http://support.AMD.com/us/gpudownload/Windows/pages/auto_detect.aspx
According to me, a recent update of Windows, maybe the 2778344 which updates win32k.sys to the 6.2.9200.16503 version, could cause a conflict with the AMD graphics driver.
Many users report the same error recently and so far have all AMD/ATI graphics cards.
If all goes well the graphic driver update will help.
If the problem persists, consider uninstalling 2778344.
Then, at the moment, 'hide' 2778344.

Hello
I close all programs and then I closed my laptop but I see message programs are pending and that I still have programs that run, but actually I did not! I close all! and then after a few seconds it just stops himself well. In my view, there is a problem, why I see this message?
This time, when I stopped my laptop a blue screen appeared saying windows is recovering from an unexpected shutdown. This was not unexpected at all, I closed all programs and all just stop it!
From elsewhere when I press ctrl + alt + del and start the Task Manager I see not all programs that are running.
It's a windows 7 64.
I see message waiting programs so that I still have programs that run, but actually I did not!
Actually closing manually request does not mean that it is not running
Some of the startup item typically run in the background
There is no additional work Windows doesn't do, what application you are running is to show
All you can do is try to disable all start once and go to the service tab and select below "hide all Microsoft services and disable and to apply, it will ask the start/stop and see same problem is happening or not."
Press win + r > type "msconfig" and enter and click on start and select Disable all and restart
