Malwarebytes may have damaged my system. How should I do?
Recently, I ran Malwarebytes Anti-Malware on my computer, and I think that he deleted some important system files. Now, whenever I try to exercise certain functions (for example, running Add/Remove Programs, access other things from the control panel), I get an error message that says "C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe Application not found. In addition, every time I click on a shortcut, a window opens asking me to choose what program to use to open the file. How can I fix this?
Hi Jrb14,
You will need to rename regedit.exe to regedit.com (my computer-> tools-> option-> view file-> remove tickmark to "Hide extension for known file types"-> ok-now right click on local disk C:\WINDOWS\ online search of regedit.exe rename regedit.com).
Then click on Start-> Run Type &-> Regedit-> ok.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\Exefile\Shell\Open\Command
(you will have to press on + to achieve order)
Now, double-click default slot right windows and then change the value in this box for '%1' % *.
Repeat the same for HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Exefile\Shell\Open\Command
Close regedit, restart your pc and check if its working.

I hope this helps.

TrayApp.msi missing. I have windows xp. How should I do?
Hi LarryBullington,
· You did it of any material changes or software on the computer before this problem?
· Exactly when you receive the error message?
The TrayApp.msi file is associated with the HP Photosmart Digital Imaging software.
If you receive a popup of the message, I suggest to uninstall the HP Photosmart Digital Imaging software and reinstall it back.
Note: You can download HP software applications from the web site of the customer; or if the software was supplied with the computer, you can reinstall using the HP application recovery process.

I get a trial version, even though I have a license. How should I do?
I need help with licensing issues. I have a site of Adobe CC license for my class. I installed the software on 1 computer and activated the license. Once it worked, I migrated all the data for the other 39 machines. It worked on most computers. However, on about 5, whenever you open an application (Photoshop), it starts a trial instead of the licensed version. When I click to add license, it is said that it does not find my account even if I use the right pair. Is it possible that I can just type the serial number? Any help to get those computers an appropriate license is appreciated. I use Mac OS 10.11.2.
Migration of Mac and Time Machine NOT FUNCTION correctly with the Adobe program activations due to hidden folders are not included when Migration or Time Machine make their copies

Whenever I try to open a new tab in Safari, it closes in on my previous page. How should I do so that I can have several tabs open?
What version of OS/Safari do you use?
Try a reboot.
Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolate a problem by using a different user account
If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account. Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

I have McAfee Virus Scan installed on my Windows 7 system. Should I also turn on Windows Defender?

Yes. In addition to an anti-virus program, you must also at least one
anti-spyware (two or three is even better) program. Windows Defender is
an anti-spyware program.But keep in mind:
I think McAfee is one of the two worst anti-virus programs on the
market (Norton is this one). I recommend that you run eSET NOD32
If you are willing to pay for anti-virus software, or one of the
the following three if you want for free anti-virus software:Avira
Avast
Microsoft Security EssentialsFor anti-spyware, I recommend running all three of the following:
MalwareBytes AntiMalware
SuperAntiSpyware
Windows Defender.
