Lost original desktop and all my info

When I connected to my office of origin has disappeared and all my documents and pictures are missing too. Where all did go and how can I get it back? All my favorites are gone too!

Hello

Have you seen a message while connected with a temporary profile? If so, then they are always in your original profile, but it has been corrupted. You will need to create a new copy of the old files before deleting.

    Every thing seems to have returned to normal, but when I restarted my computer all the icons on my desktop and all programs in the start menu disappeared, and yet, all programs are always in: Control Panel > add/REMOVE programs.   I can still connect to the internet by going to-Start > my computer > view > go to the desktop.

    Thank you Joel S. Before I could put your advice into practice a friend recommended a friend who advised me to do a system restore, which he said he would be happy to do it for me. So look like an easy option, I agreed. It seems to have solved the problem (fingers crossed), but now it seems that I need to format the hard drive. If you have any tips on formatting hard drive I'm all ears. Thank you Owen

  • Open windows with the "preparing your desktop" and all the specific parameters of the lost user

    Original title: laptop charge no office

    Please bear with me, this is my first post and I'm not very computer literate. I have a laptop Packard Bell under Windows 7. Everything seemed fine until I turned it on the other day and after the login screen I noticed that the blue screen of windows had a message saying, preparing your desktop... it stayed for a few minutes and then he went to my office, but the screen was black and none of my usual icons were present. He has none of my usual icons in the taskbar either. My usual browser of choice is Chrome, but now there is only IE in the taskbar. I did a scan with Malwarebytes and it came with JS/Redir, I removed this and restarted the computer laptop, but had the same problem. I can't access the internet, but a strange thing is that the default fonts for things like email have been changed. Please help me get my usual workstation and familiar environment of return!

    Hello Maurice Mann

    Thank you for all the time and effort that you put in trying to help me with my laptop PC problem.  I think that all the trouble which resulted from a faulty AVG!

    I finally managed to uninstall this program, I started to make progress.

    I finally got back on the internet by following the tips as follows: -.

    Run the SFC system several times. Click Start, click all programs, and then accessories. Right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. Type or copy sfc/scannow then press ENTER. If it finds errors, but cannot fix try a couple of times again. If it still does not work, then restart.

    I tried a few times and nothing happened, so I decided to make one last try and after a reboot, everything was back to normal.  I had the help of Windows and pages of back Support, my office, and all of my favorite settings and I've been on the internet Wi - fi!

    Thank you once again and I hope my information helps in the future.

  • BlackBerry smartphones updated my OS but lost App World and all of my current applications. Torch 9810. Help, please.

    I plugged my lamp to my laptop and the desktop software told me that there was an OS update (version 7.0 bundle 2406 v7.0.0.585 platform 5.0.0734). I thought fair enough - probably extra security, etc. on the new version so I advanced and loaded after doing a full backup.

    This delete all my contacts, media, app world and all the applications that I had downloaded. I did a restore but then put it back into place all my contacts and the media, app world and all applications seem to have disappeared, and I can't seem to get them or even to make global icon reappear.

    Help, please.

    I am very surprised that RIM has put an update out there that removes all your stuff off your phone without even warn that it can do?

    Thank you.

    Well, RIM develops upgrades of the OS, your mobile operator "put out there" for you to upgrade.

    And there are many warnings rich to do upgrades of the OS without first accomplishing your own backup device independent... but this is not serious now.

    1. Anywho, do... go into Options > device > Applications, search AppWorld on your list and IF it is, delete it.
    2. Perform a simple reboot on the BlackBerry this way: with smart BlackBerry poweredphone, remove the battery for a minute and then reinsert the battery to restart.
    3. Now, use your browser to go to the www.blackberry.com/appworld and download/install AppWorld again.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Go to "display--> Desktop--> Desktop Properties Customize (button).
    Then click on the "Restore Default" option for all corrupt icons.

  • CD installation lost, security documents and all that...

    Some time ago I noticed that I could have thrown all my "papers of computer... Boxes with documentation and warranty... Warranty was already obsolete, but I had there also my cd of Vista Home Premium, I bought with a computer (extra charge). Now, I installed it on my PC, recorded by phone (I had no internet access while the record was necessary), I have a cd - key stuck at the top of the computer case. But what happens if mysystem breaks down and I need everything reinstall? Will I have problems? Can I receive wherever you are LEGALLY a new drive without paying the full price for the system once more?

    How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.
