• Adobe Acrobat has taken possession of my computer. All files try to open in Adobe.

  adobe acrobat somehow took on my computer... it is few pictures is all over my desk and it tries to open all.  How can I stop?  I tried to recover but it did not work :(

  original title: adobe acrobat opens all programs

  Have you tried using 'open with' on a shortcut? You can open the executable programs?

  It sounds really like you accidentally attached .lnk extensions to adobe acrobat. This creates users default choice on all your shortcut to adobe acrobat links.

  Since the default action is caused by the user (as it was accidental) choice, you can be able to restore everything simply by creating a new user account. See if the icons to return to their natural state, then knit. If so, just move all your files and folders and delete the old account. If you use Outlook, you also need to reset where it looks for files of Outlook, but it can be automatic (do not try to start Outlook until what everything is copied on the property). If you use this method, remember to copy the hidden appdata folder. Just show all before you begin the copy.

  The other method which requires a regedit is also quite simple, but recommend that you set a manual restore point before you start. A regedit always has the potential to mess up your system. the procedures are:

  1. Click on the Start Menu, type regedit in start search and press ENTER.
  2. Navigate to the following registry branch:

  NtVersion ntVersion\Explorer\FileExts\ [ext]

  Replace the [ext] with the real extension of the file you want to restore the file type association to return to the original Windows 7 by default (probably .lnk). If you unsure, simply browse through all the Sub-touche under FileExts.

  3. delete the subkey named UserChoice.

  4. exit the registry editor.

  Theoretically, each method of work.

• Pop - up menu has taken possession of my PC

  I have a fairly new PC (acer) and Windows 7.  I downloaded Open Office to write and it worked fine for awhile, but now a context menu appears and sticks: I can't get rid of it or type a word on my documents.  Also, when I try to search on the icon of the window, or using the window, the same thing is happening, but with another drop-down list.  In both cases, the menu cannot be reduced.  Everything else works fine.  What can I do?   Please help if you can help me.  Thank you!!

  Does anyone else have this problem?

  I am running Windows 7 + 64 bit on a Dell laptop.

  I'm back from vacation (I left my laptop @ home) and found that Adobe pdf icons took over from my office.

  I had to create another user admin just to get the Adobe programs off my machine.

  But now I need to open pdf files but do not have the program to do.

  I / m clearly left mouth gaping and Adobe support sent me here.

  That fixation begins!

• Apple has taken $16.63 my account for an application called Kings of Pirate and I do not have the game on my phone.

  Apple has taken $16.63 my account for an application called Pirate Kings. The problem is I don't have the game on my phone and I've never played the game at all. I recived an email with the front desk saying that I bought a few different things to the game at 6 in the morning on 07/11/2017 and to whom I was sound asleep. I don't think it's just that I want my money that I never brought anything off here

• A person or group has taken over my computer

  A few years ago, I downloaded accidentally malware/trojan/virus through a flash update. My internet has sent almost as much as she gets slow my computer down to ridiculous.  A few years ago I enabled hidden files and found a whole bunch of very strange file names starting with $ and extremely long numbers. For example, $NtUninstallKB2655992$.

  I looked into some of these hidden folders to find text files with a very strange, as the rectangles and something like nAuN dirty as a name in it.

  There are 39 just in my Windows folder. In addition to a folder called $hf_mig$ who has stored all my XP system updates and, perhaps, since it happened. There are 38 updates since 10/10/2012 in there. Files named something close to KB2724197 are listed in there. I guess they are updated because they have almost the same name as the updates of today that I was not allowed to install.

  Last night I started in safe mode to change the privileges on files hidden as a RECYCLER. When in safe mode, I clicked on RECYCLER to change the admin him. When he wouldn't let see who was the owner, I started to look around. In the box, there is a list of privileges to assign read/write, etc. But "special permission is grayed out. As I have gone through and created a new user for my self, I found this list of users;

  ANONYMOUS
  Authenticated users
  BATCH
  Dan (me)
  DIALUP
  Everyone
  Comments (deactivated)
  Guests
  Help Services Group (deactivated)
  Help Assistant
  INTERACTIVE
  NETWORK
  SERVICE
  SUPPORT_388945a0
  SYSTEM
  Terminal Server user
  User (has been disabled)
  Users

  I was unable to make changes when you try to remove users from this file. When I tried the error message showed a path? \C:\RECYCLER, you do not have sufficient privileges to make changes.

  Éventuellement par le biais de fouiller, j’ai pu voir le propriétaire de celui-ci, qui était de 5-1 - 5-21 - 1205666252-1506235805-1800150966-55846

  Note aside, everything first, I realized something was wrong years when I found that Audacity could not use my microphone or adjust the volume in my controls.

  So, what is with all this?

  At this point, you have to assume that all of your data and personal information on the computer is compromised.  You must ensure that your credit cards and other financial accounts have not been fraudulently used.  Use a secure computer known to replace your passwords online.  If you have already used an online credit card, call the credit card company and request a new account number (explain that your computer may have been compromised - they should treat it simply as a lost or stolen card).

  Reading this, especially the last paragraph--> http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc700813.aspx

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to provide you with a way to reinstall Windows.  If they cannot help you, ask the computer lab (or a renowned local independent repair store - not a store chain) and ask them if they can re-install version authentic Windows XP for you.  They may or may not be able to do, depending on what the media available to them and that the label of certificate of authenticity of Windows XP on your computer can be read.

  Overall, it may be cheaper to purchase a new netbook.  You will not be able to get one with XP, however.  You will probably have to get used to Windows 8 or Google Chrome.

  Really, the alternative to reinstalling Windows or buy a new computer - and it is not a good alternative and is not guarantee of success - advertising interactive help in one of the specialized forums malware removal I listed before.

  Although it is technically possible that your BIOS is infected, it is very likely (unless you live in China).  A rootkit BIOS named Mebromi appeared a year or two ago, but it can only attack computers that use BIOS code produced by a specific vendor.

However, whenever I install it I get a message that is INSTALLED successfully.  Can anyone help me, please.

Keep up the good work.  Here is the page to download the file.

Now, to partition your disk, you must create at least a partition for Mac OS X, which should be formatted for OS X Extended, partition scheme GUID that is the default value.  Make sure that you are connected to the internet via Wi - Fi or ethernet.

  We'll put the original OS that computer comes with. After putting in place, you can upgrade. After he finished the installation, it will restart and put you Assistant settings.

• The Mac Pro has a future?

  The Mac Pro has a future? Processors seem to have reached a plateau and it is no longer an Apple Display Monitor for it. I want to replace my 2009 model at the beginning because it will not support the Sierra and would prefer a Pro for an iMac as I run SETI 24/7.

  I think that early 2009 Mac Pro is supported of Sierra, although...

  Sierra has Siri requiring a microphone that Mac Pro does not, so we need to do, even if Apple can't sell microphone or headset for Mac Pro.

  I use Sierra Beta Version2 on 2012, MacBook Air and it's fun.
