Lack of STARTUP programs links > all programs

Hello
I ' #m at a loss about what happened, a single moment all my programs are visible by clicking on the START button and then the All PROGRAMS folder, even my Microsoft Office 2013 has disappeared, in the list that you see in the inserted picture, although not all programs have been removed, almost all my programs however.

Also at the same time I started having the #' character appear in my typing, as you can see on my first line for you. As Malwarebytes has suddenly refused to be updated and recorded himself, to which I had to run an uninstall followed by a full install again.

My first thought was a virus, but I have completely updated Malwarebytes and Kaspersky Security and performed a FULL scan with both and they both gave my system the all clear.

My links to my programs of suggestions how to return back?
Concerning
Paul

It is only long because there are six copies of it - all identical :)

There is no problem to display in the report - the installation is activated and has been validated successfully on 11 Feb

  • Vista - auto startup programs.

    Vista - auto startup programs.

    The morning after the idling, I find programs in Vista 32 bit.  This morning it was Acronis 2011 and environmental assessment tools.  Other morning programs are open, sometimes only one.  Ashampoo utility, Real Player, Anti Virus etc.  The only common factor I can think is that they are always downloaded items, but they are not the same. This happens not all the time, and I guess they are triggered by the internet.  If they are, how?

    I have AVG antivirus, Bufferzone, Malaware and MS sandbox features of security running.  PC is all updated, scanned with no reports of problems. Any ideas please?

  • Windows Defender is abandoned and forbids me to control startup programs

    I am running Vista on a 32-bit computer. I have Microsoft Security Essentials installed and it works fine. I tried to change my startup from the Control Panel programs today. As soon as I click on this link, a message appears that says that Defender is stopped.

    If I click on the link to turn it on, after a few seconds it comes back with an error message. I can't go beyond that point. I don't advocate in my list of programs to uninstall. It is not yet on all programs. I see it in the Program Files folder.

    How can I get rid of the Defender, so I can edit my startup programs? It is my understanding that I didn't need a defender with Essentials installed.

    TIA

    > But the fact remains, I can't in normal user friendly way. How should I do?

    This statement is a misconception...

    You used to get to the via Windows Defender start-up programs. That's all.

    The "msconfig" is a method that you is not worn. This does not mean that it is not "user friendly". You didn't know its existence. That's all.

    For an example, everyone will tell you how to get to Windows Defender of
    Start < control="" panel=""> etc. etc. TEC.

    What happens if I tell you, go to Windows Defender by...
    Start > Search box, type windows defender > press the Enter key > and this is windows Defender.

    What happens if I tell you, to create a desktop shortcut of Windows Defender, so next time just click the shortcut.

    So which way is easy to use? For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

    If you see the error message above from the start of your system, the error disappears?  I suggest you run a full scan with your antivirus software with some type of malware/spyware removal.

    So, since I restarted my laptop, I had this startup program named "false" when it opens at startup, it is a window asking what program should I use to open the 'false' but I tried everything. I even tried to delete it, but he said I can't. And I wonder is this safe program because I don't know if this program is integrated or I could have installed it accedentally. I currently use Microsoft Security essencials as my security software.

    Hello

    If the program still appears, then you can try this steps.

    NOTE: BEFORE YOU TRY WE RECOMMEND TO TAKE TO THE TOP OF ALL YOUR DATA.

    1. reboot the appliance

    2. Press f8 and boot in safe mode with n/w

    3 run - > msconfig and try if still exists.

    4 restart the machine in normal mode

    5. run - > regedit-> and on top, select search and type the value false and search

    6. it will go to the location of the file, try to remove.

    7. for the next selection press f3, it will search the files again to do this until you remove the traces of the files.

    8. restart the unit and check

    9. If nothing works, best suggestion would be to reimage the unit.

    How to stop startup programs unnecessary upward poping when I start my pc

    First of all, note that you should be in * all * the programs that start automatically, not only with those who are in the system tray. Not all the programs auto-start manifesting by an icon in the status bar.

    On each program, you don't want to automatically start, check its Options to see if she has the choice to not start (make sure that you actually choose to not run, not simply a "don't display the icon" option). Many can easily and better be arrested like that. If this does not work, run MSCONFIG from the start. Run the line and on the Startup tab, uncheck the programs that you do not want to automatically start.

    However, if I were you, I wouldn't do this just for the purpose of the minimum number of running programs. Despite what a lot of people tell you, you should be concerned, not with the way * a lot * of these programs you run, but * that *. Some of them can seriously affect the performance, but others have no effect on performance.

    Don't stop all programs to run willy-nilly. What you need to do is to determine what each program is that its value is for you and what the performance cost is running all the time. You can try searching the Internet and ask questions about the details here.

    Once you have this information, you can make a smart informed decision on what you want to keep and what you want to get rid of.

  • How to remove startup programs to include information system?

    I have two questions:

    2. What does the following error message, and how can I correct: «entry point procedure RegSetKeyValue is not found in the dynamic library of ink ADVAPTI32.dll»

    To answer #1 question, you can use the program 'msconfig' to Microsoft

    (Start-> Run-> "msconfig")

    to toggle the elements that run at startup... but especially for diagnostic purposes.

    A better way is to download the freeware from Microsoft "AutoRuns".  When you run it, it will show a list of items that run at startup and allow you to uncheck all that you desire.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

  • Unwanted startup programs/applications

    If I use msconfig to remove startup programs unwanted, that will allow me to also remove the applications that are launched at startup, because they are in the Group of network policy?

    Group Policy in part controls what users can or not do on a computer system.

    In most cases, if you are an administrator then you are 'the' group of all features to set up xp.

    So basically, if group policy is set up correctly, then you should be able to disable the startup via msconfig.

    Also, keep in mind that startup programs is not the only area that can cause starting problems.

    Look under the Services tab in Msconfig, and then click on / activate the option 'hide' and look at services of third parties who are also registered at startup as well.

    Incidentally, you might want to doodle on the paper that you disabled so you can back up the track, just in case your plans don't go quite right.
