Missing profile - cannot create new one - uninstalled FF - revenue W8.1 said earlier - already running when you try to re - install FF - many reboots VIPRE IS

original error was "already in the process of running FF" - not the view in the task manager - not could close - restarted several times - same results - uninstalled FF and tried the download & installation of new - same message "already running." W8.1 revenue by about 3 weeks (3 updates) - same result when installing FF = already "running." After the message "already running" is always the profile is missing or inaccessible.

Do the same thing with TB BTW. Using the latest version of VIPRE internet security on automatic update. Nothing like on a W7 and XP machine on the same LAN. Is there a virus on corrupting FF? Scan VIPRE says nothing about the machine of 8.1...

See:

This is usually caused by a problem with the file profiles.ini and the profile marked as the default value = 1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.

  • Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
    C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.
  • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
  • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox /.

You can use one of them to make the Creation/use of a new default profile for Firefox:

  • Remove the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
  • Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
  • Use "Choose a folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile

    A few questions.  This error only happens with KB958830 or with others?  What language is run on the PC?

    If you are comfortable with the registry editor, then look to see if this key exists:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress

    If this key is there then first copy it to your desktop then delete this key.

    The system is Win 7 Pro 64-bit with all available updates.  I can't say when the last time that the guest account has worked (rarely used) and just found out I can't do new additional user, accounts trying to solve the problem of account of comments... so I have not tried to enter Safe Mode and do a system restore , because I can't yet identify a useful restore point...

    There are no entries in the registry for a guest or a new standard user account.  The registry entries for the three accounts normal-quickly (2 x admin, 1 x level) seem to be appropriate.  Watch register computer/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

    This is the thread I can not create a new user account (Windows 7): the user profile service service doesn't have the logon

    You find it difficult to follow the thread as it's long and reported problem by different people to confuse it and there is also a bit of bickering [long filaments often end up being quite incomprehensible].

    ..., See references to the event viewer in the middle of page 4 and Windows Live we [at the bottom of page 2 more on page 3].

    I see not the logic of the any of those things, but if one of them do things long enough that you are trying to create new accounts that works, you will know how in the future until a proper solution is found.

    It turns out that the answer of JDMICHAL May 17, 2011 contained this:

    (1) C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows open live
    (2) this directory has two subdirectories with a single file of each. Go into each directory and apply the following:
    (a) make a right click on the file, open the properties.
    (b) click the Security tab.
    (c) it will issue a message: "to continue, you must be an administrative user with permission to view this object's security properties. Would continue you? ». Click on the button continue.
    (d) click on the Add button...

    After doing this for two files, attempt to connect to the account. He must undergo.

    The procedure (bascially) worked... Although the different answers on my system differed slightly along the way (perhaps due to the slightly different versions of Win 7?, because I was already logged in as an administrator?).

    In any case, "Everyone" with the read and read/execute permissions adding to these two files seems to have done the trick:

  • on windows xp, my system restore to a previous restore point. have you tried many restore points & creating new ones but the system does not restore. all the solutions out there?

    on windows xp that my system restore to a previous restore point, I tried many restore points & created new ones but the system displays "could not be restored", any help out there.

    Let see... What do we know about your system environment:

    It's windows xp.

    If we knew more, you would probably now.

    What is the problem that you are experiencing this thing you System Restore will be remedied?  System Restore is not a time machine.

    The system restore already worked successfully in the past?

    Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems like frustrating and a lot of time as possible by asking only not for any information system when a new question is asked.

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    Some tools Anti Virus 'protect' your system so that they will not allow a restore of the system work properly.
    For example, if you use Norton/Symantec products, you will see a message like this:
    Restoration incomplete. Your computer cannot be restored...
    It is also a popular Symantec problem (well, I'll be polite and call an "undocumented feature"...), they wrote an article about it:
    According to what you use for malware protection, you may need to disable the product temporarily, do the system restore and then turn the products light up again when the system restore is complete.
    Sometimes you need start your system in Mode safe and so that your protection programs are not running, and then do the system restore.  Tips from Microsoft in some of their articles that if the system restore does not restore your computer, start in Safe Mode, and then run the system restore.  It works for some configurations.
    System Restore is sometimes so afflicted or Restore Points are suspicious, the best solution is to reinstall your system restore.  This will remove the old Restore Points, but sometimes it's the only way to fix a broken system restore.  You don't have to reinstall XP, only the part of system restore.
    That can leave you with your problem of unspecified origin that you hope the system restore will fix (using a system restore is usually not equivalent to fixing the problem though).
    Give these ideas some consideration if they apply to you.
    Sometimes malicious will afflict your system restore to prevent you to find and remove malware.  It would much rather you trick into thinking that you need to repair or reinstall your XP when it is not necessary.
    No matter what you use for protection against malware, I do so and then only begin to solve any problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs can solve any problems:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    It can be uninstalled later if you wish.
    The scans by operating clean, reboot, test and we can fix any other issues.
  • Windows Journal is not open previously created templates or create new ones with pilot writer Ledger

    I used the driver Journal editor to create templates of forms I fill out frequently or that I frequently have to annotate Office documents.

    Recently the newspaper stopped opening these templates and I'm also able to create new models. I can still write normal notes on the default 'paper' line. When you try to open previous models, the newspaper stops working and gives me a message to indicate that the program has stopped working and Windows will close the application, and let me know if a solution is found.

    I uninstalled the driver of editor of Journal and the touch interface and Windows Journal and re-installed everything new + fix the driver of the writer. Well, none of this has solved the problem.

    Other advice would be highly appreciated, since I have now come back to fill in forms by hand again once and then their scan to computer.

  • Cannot create new projects in RoboHelp 7 HTML

    When I try to create a new project in RoboHelp HTML 7, the Type of projects field is empty on the new tab in the new project dialog box. I just bought this product after using the trial version for 30 days. I can open the projects I created before, but cannot create new projects. Help! I need it now!

    OK, this problem is solved, the problem was of RoboSource Control 3.1. I realized that I had installed RoboSource Control 3.1 during my trial installation (the installation option it is checked by default). By running again the trial download (thank God I taped it), I was able to uninstall RoboSource Control 3.1. (I could not uninstall by using the Tech Comm Suite installer or the Add/Remove feature in the control panel)

    Then I ran the installation Tech Comm Suite and reinstalled RoboHelp 7 (without installation of RoboSource Control 3.1).

    RoboHelp 7 HTML now works again. Note that only the HTML version has been screwed upward - Word version ran OK, I just don't need.

  • Cannot configure synchronization, can not delete 'old' sync acct, cannot create new account (email "already in use") storage = 0,0 FUBAR! Help!

    About 1 month ago received the message "Server error" sync a new device (Virtual Machine), I'm sorry, but I did not copy the exact message, but remember you that the notice was to try later. Long story short, after 3 days worth of 'try later' with the same error and many users have the same error on innernetz that I decided to delete my acct sync & start reading. BAD MOVE.

    When you try to delete the account I get this really fv # "cutesy" stupid $ing Mozilla message (screenshot):
    I AM NOT AMUSED.

    Trying to create a new account receives «already in use»
    NO AMUSED2

    Synchronization of compensation data "claims" successfully cleared. (How can that be, if the "dinosaur is the treadmill power off" at first?) Again, I'M NO FUN 3

    A quota increase request reveals 0.0 k stored: NO AMUSED4

    At this stage (MORE than a month later) in case you didn't notice, I am clearly NOT FUN, not to mention the being without the ability to sync my devices. Next step is to empty Firefox, but reluctantly, for Chrome or any other browser. I can NOT simply continue to use ANY browser without this vital function, and the State of my previously stored data sync 'missing' being so flippantly described BY YOU as "out of the treadmill" causes me MAJOR grief... had HUNDREDS resetting passwords, etc... let... you guessed me it...
