.lnk .exe and all shortcuts do not connect

All of a sudden all the links (.lnk) seem to have disappeared.  I use XP, service pack 3.  None of the programs in my Start Menu to connect.  RUN the command (in the start menu) does not do anything.  This is true in normal mode and safe.  Everything I click on a message "to open this file, Windows needs to know what kind of program has created.  Windows can get... online, or you can manually select from a list. "I was able to open a. PDF file to order manually to use Adobe Reader.  The .lnk files, however. cannot be opened.  I was able to access the system restore in Mode safe mode with the command, but even after the restoration of the system to an earlier date (twice), there was no result.  Articles that I could find in support seem to require going in FLEEING, a safe start, but any command, I put in EXECUTION brings up the same message that "Windows needs to know what program he created...» "I can get on the net and write this letter.  I can check my email.  Microsoft Update can't find updates I need.  I can't get Scanreg (/ restore, / difficulty / autorun) or Scanregw.exe from Secure Mode control mode.  . JPG files open in images.  . DOC. PDF. EXE and. Will not open LNK files.  Is there a patch for this?  What should I do?

I solved the problem

I backed up all my files.  I took my OS xp instalation disk, ran together upward on the repair mode.   He out got me back of Service pack 3 to Service pack 2, but all my files and programs emerged intact.  Then I did the Microsoft Update until I was current.  I did have to use the backed up files.

    Hello

    Do you mean that you try to connect the wireless access point? Try to install Service pack 3. Also what you can check:
    Click Start-> settings-> network-> right click on your adapter connection-> properties-wireless => select Wireless (tab)-> select your (name) wireless access point->, then select properties-> click on authentication-> uncheck the "802.1 x authentication for this network" click ok on all screens.

    Restart your computer and try to reconnect.

    I hope this helps.

    attempt to analysis and I get: interface: not connected, option: unknown

    Yes, 64-bit. I downloaded the correct drivers

    Right - we have established that.  What I asked (or thought I asked, sorry for any confusion) was the seocond time:

    Is the error you receive [interface: not connected, option: unknown] from a native Windows application, you are running OR the scanner utility Epson or som another application?

    I ask because it is important to know which application is gving you the error because those who are integrated into the code, usually.  The errors mean more if you know the name of the application giving error while looking for the error itself.  Epson has what he calls, "Epson Stylus NX300 and NX305 EPSON Scan Utility" and I was trying to establish whether it is what you use when you try to scan and so what gives you the error [interface: not connected, option: unknown] you have found?

    For example, a google search for:

    Give some success (including this conversation.)  You may need to contact Epson directly support to help with it.

  • Safari crashes and all OS will not respond

    Hi all

    I have a great difficulty. It was the sixth time that I met this kind of problem. While web surfing with safari and with only two tabs open, the entire OS will suddenly insensitive and even the touchpad on my macbook pro retina does not work. Force quit with keyboard shortcut does not work either. Just whole operating system freezes and the last resort was to force closing down the entire mac. After the restart the mac, I launched the console and this is what I received during the time that the OS freezes.

    What should I do? It is a type of hardware failure or it's a bug to Apple?

    Thank you.

    If your Mac is running v10.11.4 as indicated in your profile, update your Mac software.

    Open the App Store, and then select the updates in the App Store's menu bar.

    Your Mac may restart several times during the update process. It's normal.

    Then try Safari.

    If this does not help, a Safe Mode boot removes system caches can help.

    Follow these steps to start in safe mode.

    Start or restart your Mac.

    As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key .

    Release the SHIFT key when you see the logo Apple appears on the screen.

    After the Apple logo appears, this may take longer than usual to reach the login screen or your office. This is because your Mac performs a check of directory of your drive to boot in safe mode.

    To leave safe mode, restart your computer without pressing any keys during startup.

    Then try Safari.

    On Safe Mode

  • I have been connected to the internet (wireless), then I unplugged the router and now I can not connect to internet. I tried diagnose the problem, but he said that he could not.

    I have a wireless internet connection for my laptop. I was connected to the internet, and it worked very well, so I had to unplug my router and all of a sudden I can't connect to the internet more. When I open the available networks, I hit connect on mine and he said: it does not work then I hit "diagnose the problem" and then, he says he can't. Also it is not even give me the option to set my password to connect to my network, but it does when I try to connect to any other.

    I suggest to unplug all your network cables and unplug the adapter from your modem AND router. ONLY plug your modem back power adapter in. Wait until you get a steady green light on your router, which indicates that it is ready. Then, connect the ethernet cable from your modem to your router INTERNET port. Connect the ethernet cable from your computer to any other ETHERNET port on your router. Finally turn the monitor for your router.

    If you do not do so in this order, the router can not connect properly to the internet because it doesn't have the correct IP address of your modem.

    Hi windy-54,
     
    -What do you mean when you say "everything on the left side of the screen disappeared and all programs not recover"? Does this mean you "Start" menu is empty?
    -What is the exact error that you receive while you are trying to search for programs on the computer?
     
    Write us with more information pertaining to the matter to help us help you better. Meanwhile, scan your computer to clean the virus or malware that touched it.
     
    You can use the Microsoft security scanner to do the same.
    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
