    I looked in all possible aspects of user accnts, changed the need to open a session, deleted all passes, gave full control to all parts of windows and I still get the same screen.

    I need to know if there is a way around this or if the virus has changed the aperture setting of session for the repair operation? Also, if someone could tell me what measures the system and what files it loads when you browse the F8 repair op.

    I do not understand your question. Download IE8? Do you mean the installer for IE8? It's here.

    You try to install KB2618444? They make 3. For IE6, IE7, and IE8. You probably download one from a different version of Internet Explorer you have...

  • I am trying to transfer an old profile in Windows 7, but the AppData folder does not appear under my name in the USERS folder. How can I find it?

    When I go to the troubleshooting help and click Open containing folder I get a window of Windows Explorer that displays the path used (s) - Edward-AppData, etc.. But when I click on the small triangle to the right of the King Édouard the menu drop-down does not include AppData, and if I just go in Windows Explorer and the Edward users, there is no AppData folder. So I can't overwrite the profile file with saved my laptop earlier profile information. Case beside Edward symbol has a lock on it, but I don't know what that means or how to unlock.

    %AppData%\microsoft\windows\sendto is the name of an environment variable.
    On XP, this variable points to C:\Documents and Settings\ < user > \Application Data\

    "Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden files, use %APPDATA%\microsoft\windows\sendto in the file name field
