  • E-mail "Inbox" of old messages have all changed to text only after Norton scan?

    Hello

    Last night, I did a full scan Norton from my computer and found this morning that all messages in the 'Inbox' 'soft' at the time of the analysis seem to have been changed to text only with other codes and symbols, but without good formatting of text and graphics. With these old messages Inbox address and the subject lines are now empty, as is the "to:" and "from:" actually all of the space where they should appear now just says "subject". There is also no graphics in the actual message just the text and symbols area. This has happened only on my POP3 Inbox server. He did not go to my other email address which is an IMAP server. Nor has it affected message "Sent" boxes, or 'Archive' for the POP3 server system. However, entering a new email I just received this morning and post the scan of Norton is ok.

    Y at - it a way I can recover or reconfigure these old messages in the Inbox of what appears to be the text probably HTML with the correct subject lines and text/graphics, formatting that seems to have been lost since the Norton scan?

    Thank you very much.

    Not sure I like the idea of restoration of Norton files/emails that contain a problem even if he could get them back.

    The security industry did a good job of scaring people into compliance. It's a shame, they put a little effort in teaching.

    As the scholar on the plutonium in a box of double lead. Your "virus" was not causing issues, i.e. up to what the Greens Norton entered, open the box threw the contents on the floor and exclaimed, Oh Lord, we all die of radiation poisoning, fast, I will put the article in my forties.

    Why the e-mail Inbox not can not simply be saved as individual packets of data/information with the equivalent of metaphorical leap plastic separating one from the other?

    They can. Bug 58308 refershttps: / /bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58308

    Hello

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact Acer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    http://us-store.Acer.com/RCD/

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    It comes to the use of the partition Recovery of Acer to restore factory settings.

    http://Acer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/A_ID/2631

    Note: During the process, all data stored on your computer will be overwritten. This means that all of your files, such as e-mail and photos, will be deleted. Therefore, we recommend making a backup of all data before starting the recovery process.

    To start the system recovery:

    1. Restart the computer.
    2. When the Acer logo appears on the screen, press the left Alt and F10 keys.
    3. If you are prompted with a Microsoft Windows splash screen, press the Enter key.
    4. After that the Acer eRecovery Management application is loaded, select your type of restore.
    5. Read the review and then click Next when you are ready.
    6. Click Next to start the restore process. It may take 10 minutes up to an hour fom anywhere to restore.
    7. Once the restore is complete, your computer will restart. After the reboot it will load Windows and start the installation of your software and drivers. Your computer will restart several times during this process. Once they are all completed, your computer will be like it was when you bought it first.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens or the recovery Partition is damaged, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  • All the devices in the devices folder and printer icons have dissappeared. How to make a comeback?

    I went to devices and printers from the Start button file, and all my icons disappeared. I can still print normally, but I would like to have the icons back. Help please!

    Hi Wilrad,

    There seems to be a problem with the icons disappear from devices and printers.

    Method 1: install the hotfix from the link below and see if it helps.

    a: Open Administrative Tools by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking Administrative Tools.

    b : Double-click Services. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    c: Right click on the Bluetooth support serviceand then click Properties.

    d: Under the tab general , next to Startup type, make sure that Automatic (delayed start) is selected.

    e : Next to Service status, check whether the service is started. If not, click Start.

  • I come to me on my computer and everything was gone. All my files, shortcuts and backround have simply disappeared. It's like I've never been on my computer before. I have nothing! How to get everything back?

    I come to me on my computer and everything was gone. All my files, shortcuts and backround have simply disappeared. It's like I've never been on my computer before. I have nothing! How to get everything back?

    You have been discharged into a temporary user account. It may be a glitch, or your user account may be damaged. First try a system restore when things worked. If it suits it, fine. If it is not then your account is damaged and the best thing to do is to create a new user account and copy your data from the old to the new. I would also like to do a Chkdsk and then some hardware diagnostics on the hard drive and RAM to make sure that the material is solid.

    CHKDSK - click here to open the computer. Right click on the hard drive you want to check, and then click Properties. Click on the Tools tab and then, under error-checking, click check now. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    To automatically repair problems with files and folders that the scan detects, select automatically fix file system errors. Otherwise, the disk check will simply report a problem, but not to fix them.

    To perform a full disk check, select search and attempt to recover bad sectors. This scan is trying to find and repair physical errors on the hard drive itself, and it may take much longer to complete.

    To check for errors file and the physical errors, select both automatically fix errors in file system and search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.

    Click Start.

    Depending on the size of your hard disk, this may take several minutes. For best results, do not use your computer for any other tasks while it checks errors.

    Note: If you select automatically errors in file system of fix for a disc that is used (for example, the partition that contains Windows), you will be prompted, see the disk check for the next time you restart your computer.

    Corrupt user account - if your single administrative user account is damaged (and therefore have what one user account is A Bad Thing), you must log on to the built-in Administrator (disabled by default in Vista) account. From there, you can create a new user account for yourself. In these cases, I prefer not to copy the whole profile to a new way to do not copy the bits corrupt. I prefer a new user account to copy the data (documents, photos, emails, etc.). Here are the instructions to do this. I assumed that you had only an administrative account, then you might want to take a look at the "general recommendations for setting Up user accounts in Vista" at the end of this post.

    All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

    Activation of the built-in administrator.

    Method 1. If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes [Enter]

    If you do not have a Vista installation DVD, you can either make a bootable DVD of Vista repair in the file at this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD.

    After net user, remove the bootable CD and restart the computer. You will now see an icon for administrator on the Welcome screen. Connect to this account.

    Method 2. Or you can use NTpassword to enable the built-in administrator. In both methods, you need third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the .iso image image file, not in the form of data.

    http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/

    B. create a new user account for yourself and by copying data from your damaged to her user account

    1. you are now connected to the built-in Administrator account. Go to control panel > user accounts and create a new Standard user for your daily work. Let's call it "Sheldon" for this example. Also create an administrator user, called 'CompAdmin' (or 'Tech' or similar).

    4 Ouvrezunesession 'Sheldon' once for profile files are created. Now log off 'Sheldon' and 'CompAdmin '. In "CompAdmin", disable the built-in security administrator. Do this from a command prompt:

    Start > Search > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator". Provide the password/OK to the UAC prompt. Now, you will get the command prompt. Type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter] and exit the command prompt.

    5. always in 'CompAdmin', you want to open two windows explore side by side. Open computer and navigate to C:\Users\old-corrupted-account. Now, do that again, but navigate to C:\Users\Sheldon. Copy the data from 'old-corrupted-account' on records in 'Sheldon '. Remember your Favorites, bookmarks (if you use Firefox) and by e-mail if you use an email like Windows Mail client.

    6. When you are finished, log in to "Sheldon. All your stuff should be there. When you are sure to have what you need, you can remove the old man-corrupted-account control panel > user accounts.

    General C. recommendations for creating users in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is an OS multi-user with system built-in accounts such as administrator, by default, all users and guest. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it will take third-party tools and work outside the operating system.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null). MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
