  Hello

  If McAfee is expired then you must uninstall it and run the McAfee removal tool to avoid problems of
  remains of the original. There are recommendations of the antivirus configurations for free below.

  McAfee - removal tool
  http://service.McAfee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?ID=TS100507

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

  Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
  launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
  reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
  Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
  right of IE)

  Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x

  Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
  Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
  Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
  Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
  disabled - click OK
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

  Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
  and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
  Finish those you don't use).
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
  programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
  or use Google to see how to remove.
  http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
  http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp?prevx=Y<-->

  Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
  would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
  (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
  never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

• Is it safe to delete the files from the System 32 &#62; DriverStore &#62; Temp folder?

  I was do a cleaning on my system and find files and temporary folders in all directions. I was wondering if it is safe to delete the files from the System 32 > DriverStore > Temp folder.

  Thank you

  DC

  Nothing in the Windows or Program Files and files their subfolders should be left alone.  You won't earn a significant amount of disk space, and you may cause to yourself untold trouble sleeping herein.  Use instead the provided Windows Disk Cleanup.  You can get to it by clicking on start-> computer, then click on the C: drive and click Properties.  On the general tab, you will see disk cleanup.  Use it and you will be safe (and not sorry).  Everything you personally placed on the computer can always be removed of course as long as you do not try to remove installed manually the software (use the programs and features in the control panel for this).

  I hope this helps.  Good luck.

• dll from System 32 error code (0 x 300000030)

  dll from System 32 error code (0 x 300000030)

  First of all, if you have gone through your windows folder, you might be familiar with the name of the system32 folder. This is a very important issue and part of your operating system without which your system may not work at all. Some consider it as the brains of the operation because it contains many dll files in what is active and runing in every process of your system. As it is an important part of your operation, I want to tell you to keep away from this folder and never delete or change anything. It's all about your system 32 folder located in your windows folder. This has nothing to do with system32.dll.

  System32.dll is a Trojan called harnig. Harnig Trojan isn't part of your operating system and is a very harmful infected file that will give all your information navigation to advertisers and sponsors. It can also result in loss of data and information from your system. The developer of this Trojan must were smart by naming "system32" to confuse people because the experts always fear users to stay away from the system32 folder.

  Now that you know the difference, you do not necessarily have to deal with these problems by yourself. But if you have a missing dll file or a file that is corrupted in your system 32 folder, you can try some easy stuff for yourself. First of all, you can try the system restore to an earlier date which is a good way to fix many problems by taking your computer to the date of the last when your operating system have saved all of your settings. You can easily do this by restarting your computer. Once the computer stops and tries to start again you must press f8 until you see the black screen with options and then select 'safe mode' and choose the option to start windows system restore. If this does not work, you can try another way by the same procedure that is, restart your computer and press F8, but instead select "safe mode", select "Start using last good known Configuration".

  Now, all these things might or might not help you fix or replace your system32.dll files. But how can you be sure that there is a corrupt or a dll file missing in your system 32 folder? Because their could be a virus in your system 32 folder that is if other dll files. It could be something similar to the system32.dll file. You can easily solve the problem of virus system32.dll and another problem of dll with the help of a good registry cleaner that got all of the definitions and the dll files library.

• Lack of folders/files-System Restore - more missing files/folders

  Hello!

  I would appreciate help to find my files and folders missing if possible.

  I am running windows Vista version 6.0, service Pack2.

  I started windows and noticed that 5 of my office files are missing, and all files contained in. A search for the names of document and file returned nothing (even with advanced search options). One of the missing records was called "term 1". I created a new folder and tried to change the name in term 1. A popup told me this (office) file contained already a folder named "term 1" - I wanted to merge these files? I was puzzled, because I could see is no longer the original record of the term 1. I clicked 'Yes' in the hope that a merger would result in a visible folder 1 term, but now two records have disappeared. After some intensive research, I couldn't find the files/folders that were missing. I must point out that not all the files/folders disappeared.

  I restored my computer to a previous checkpoint (since 2 days after a windows update). After the reboot, I got a message that the restore has failed. I remembered that this can occur because of an AV, so I disabled Norton. At this point, all of my files and folders Office disappeared, apart from the default windows desktop icons. A search gave no results. I tried to cancel the restoration, which has been a success, but none of the files/folders not returned. I then tried to do a restore to a control point from before the update of windows. This succeeded, but more folders/files have disappeared. Ouch. I can still access those appearing in the Panel of my 'recent articles', but when I try re - record, I get a warning of "the file is read-only / Normal doc.

  What have I done? Can we do anything to restore my files? Curiously, a few random documents and most of the settings are still intact. I noticed that my quick launch buttons are gone if it means something.

  Any help/direction would be wonderful.

  Thanks in advance,

  Meegss

  SOLVED! It was the question. Thank you.

  Have I lost the files of Outlook Express completely or is there a way that I can import them in the same way that e-mail came? My old computer died (power source grilled or something like that). I still have it, but no way to turn it on.

• Access the Windows\System32 folder from a non-elevated command window (64-Bit operating systems)

  Is it possible to the system32 folder access to the operating system 64 bit from a command window, not high.

  I had entered the following commands in a command not high window.
  cd\
  c:
  CD windows
  CD system32
  beginning.
  This command opens the SysWOW64 folder rather than the System32 folder.
  If it is possible to access the system32 from a folder window no elevated command then please provide the steps to do this.

  Hi Geo,

  System32 is a folder of the operating system. So, you have to open in administrator mode.

  Please let us know if you have any other questions about Windows.

• "File &gt; open recent" does not work.    Second problem: impossible to drag individual files or folders, from one place to the other.

  I recently installed Lightroom 6 (stand-alone version).  I have two separate issues: firstly the "file > open recent" does not work.  The cottage my last files but when I click on one of them, nothing happens (don't close the existing catalog, nothing new opens).

  Second problem: I can't drag individual files or folders, from one place to another within the section "Files" from the library.  I did this on a regular basis with older versions of LR so I know how it's done - it does everything just not in this new version.

• Reservation of memory from system resources

  I use monik part of backup tools, and there is a best practice to change the setting of the CPU and the memory at 1500 MHz and 800 MB.

  In the next page of VMware KB, there is a description to change the allocation of memory, only in ESXi 4.1, there is no material cofiguration option > memory.

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1003501

  But in configuration > system resource allocation, I can set the CPU and memory, is that the same allocaiton memory for the ESXi console?

  On this tab, we have generally fine tune the allocation of resources for this host. But this sentence anyone unless someone has encountered a problem. For the parameters of the ESX host we usually set the value in memory and CPU for the console of any third-party application or service that makes us turn on this host.

  In the case of ESXi, if big it seems people leave just as Norbert has asked to change by a seller of 3rd party app.

  Please refer to this article which contains details about the reservation of memory from system resources
