  • Whenever I try to change the settings for startup from the Control Panel, a pop up tells me that I need to activate Windows Defender and open

    I installed Microsoft Security Essentials today and I'm trying to edit startup programs. Whenever I try to change the settings for startup from the Control Panel, a pop up tells me that I need to activate Windows Defender and open.  However, most of the security will not allow Windows Defender be turned on and I want to change the startup parameters.  How can I accomplish this?

    Hello

    If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

    There is nothing to worry.

    Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

    If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:

    http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

    And now edit startup in Vista without using Defender programs, use one of the following methods:

    "How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"

    Or the program Autoruns for FREE:

  • Catalog disappeared from the left panel of the Library tab

    I currently work with a trial version of Lightroom 4.2 and I made a few mistakes. The end result is that the catalog has disappeared from the left panel of the Library tab is to say I only see folders, collections and Services to publish...

    I tried to use the file/new catalog open catalog and open the recent item but, in any case, I get an error box that appears: "..." Catalog address made reference to a location that is unavailable' it does not help to close and reopen LR

    Now for the confession as to how this situation developed. I had been using LR willingly using the catalog that was created automatically when I started. So I decided to try to create a new catalog, in fact I ended up creating a few new catalogues. Having then decided that it was a stupid idea, I decided to remove all catalogs and start over with a catalog that I had put up (I was not worried about losing the updates for the photos that I had been playing with)

    But, as I could find nothing in LR on the removal of catalogs, I decided to remove them through Windows Explorer. When I went back to LR, catalogue was always on display in the Panel on the left and, when I looked in the Explorer, it is in the My Pictures/Lightroom folder that I thought that I had deleted along with all the other catalogues of origin. No doubt it had been recreated automatically as in my original use of LR

    Then, I composed my errors by clicking on the + right of the catalog and interest, choose what was at the top of the resulting list. It is at this time that catalog disappeared never to be seen again.

    Sorry about the labyrinthine tale of woe, but, if anyone has any ideas on how I can get back to testing LR, I'd love to know. Now I'm completely blocked

    johnip21 wrote:

    Another small request: is it possible to change the name of the catalog without creating a new catalog?

    Sure. Close Lightroom, then browse the catalog (.lrcat file) using the Finder or the Solution Explorer, and then rename it. The only thing is to make sure that you rename also in tandem with the adjacent Previews folder.

    So, if your catalog is called, say, 'Lightroom Catalog.lrcat of 4' and you rename to something like "My Master LR4 Catalog.lrcat", then you will need to rename the folder "Lightroom 4 catalog Previews.lrdata" adjacent to "My Master LR4 catalog Previews.lrdata".

    Mr. VMware

    Dear all,

    We have enclosed a case at VMware, please find their findings on the same.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    After the webex session, we just had, I discovered the root cause of the problem reported to an underlying problem on the block device (the logical drive, or a problem on the Board) presented to accommodate the data in question store successfully.

    In short, whenever we try to do raw reading from the disk (from sector 0), the same always fail when we reach the 30932992 bytes (31 MB) brand with an IO error (which is consistent, he is always on this region of the disc that read operations fail, no more, no less). This result can be seen, even if no partition is in the disk (using if = / dev/sdb instead of/dev/sdb1 with dd) and even after zeroing on all sectors (if dd \u003d/dev/zero of = / dev/sdb). Strangely, read operations work fine (as he writes zeros of random data) throughout the entire disk. Keep in mind that the tests I did with no VMware tools (I used almost only dd for these operations), which prohibits certainly a VMware problem (in fact, if you were to try to start the server with a Linux live CD and run the same tests that I did, you would see the same behavior).

    I know that there is no report of material of any bad behavior on the table, but data collected with our tests today completely invalid who. The next step is for you to take this to the server provider to check for problems on the table or discs, because they are there and they are the reason for the problem you reported initially.

    Please let me know if you have other questions about it.

    Thank you
