MSConfig does not display the item (by default) startup under HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. Bug creates the feat of malware to hide the user startup items, msconfig.

The following question will fail be displayed in MSConfig

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun]
@= "c:\\users\\steven\\appdata\\local\\temp\\6csjbd5.exe".

I came across this, after being attacked by malware. In general, I use MSConfig to disable all startup items when troubleshooting an attack and attempt to regain control of the system. MSConfig lead me to believe I had disabled all startup items, but he fails to show or disable the (default) entry to the registry key above. Indeed, it's an exploitable bug that is currently used by malware developers to hide from end users, armed with MSConfig. As a side note, CCleaner has the same problem. The only solution is to change the value directly using RegEdit (clear).

    You must run high Regedit.

    Start > Search > type: regedit
    When regedit appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator". Provide the password/OK for the UAC area and Regedit open high. Now, you will be able to delete unwanted keys. Be very careful in the registry - a bad deletion can take all windows down.

    User - recommended configuration (Vista and Win7) accounts

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all other Windows 7, Vista, and modern operating systems are operating systems multi-user with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want account only one user with administrator privileges on Vista and Windows 7 because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it may require more work you want to do. Better not to get into a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null). MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • menu start does not display the recently closed programs

    I can't get the start menu to show all the programs that I recently closed, and this under the items added in the start menu, it shows the item titled my recent documents. I like being able to click on the Start button and see what I have recently been in programs.

    Hello

    What you specify is called list of the UPM (most frequently used programs list). The MFU list appears under the list of favorites on the Startmenu. This list tracks the frequency programs are used and displays them in order of the most used (on top) to least used (bottom).
    What exactly is your problem? This list is not displayed any program? or it shows some programs that have been used but does not add new programs to the list?
    Possible solutions:

    1.right - click on the Start Menu and select Properties. Under the Start Menu tab, click the Customize button. under the tab general , in the program section to ensure that the 'number of programs at startup' is not set to 0. If your required number is already set, then clear the list by clicking the clear list button. Now open some of your programs and check if the MFU list now programs or not.

    2. If she has not worked for you, so now you need to check your registry settings

  • BlackBerry Tour 9630 smartphones does not display the name of the caller

    Hello

    I have a Tour 9630, version sw 5.0.0.732.  When the phone rings, it does not display the name of the caller, their telephone number, although this number is in my address book.  Once I answer the call, the name will be displayed.

    Naturally, I would like to know who is the caller before I answer!  :-)

    I found a few messages, ask something similar, although for different model phones.  Some of them suggest that I have to disable protection for the content... but I can't find it in the options.  Even in the User Guide, it contains instructions (go to Options > Security Options > General settings... but there is no "General settings" on my phone.)

    If anyone knows how to solve this problem, I would be very grateful!

    Kind regards

    Options > Security > encryption > include contacts.

    There could be other solutions... Try these:

    1. make sure that you set your own country code to the Phone Dialer screen > Options > smart dialing.
    Set your country code in this format: "+ xx" where xx = country code. Some countries have two or three-digit country Codes. Do not place not the '+' in the entrance of your contact.
    * In the United States, the value of this country as '+ 1' Code and place your local area code in the appropriate box (this normally the default setting in a new BB).

    2. in the same place, change the length of National number for the number of digits corresponding to your country (since some countries have less than 10 as that set by default in the BB). Check out the total numbers, less country code. Do not place not the '+' in the entrance of your contact.
    * For example, some countries have a total number to 8 (more than 3 for the country code). You must enter '8 '.

  • My Firefox has just automatically updated itself to the version 42. The extention under modules page does not display the extensions I have installed.

    My Firefox has just automatically updated itself to the version 42. The extention under modules page does not display the extensions I have installed. The plug in page shows the plug ins I installed. How can I fix it? This happened on my 64 bit Windows 7 partition. I installed the extension "classic add-on" to see if she could solve the problem. There is unfortunately no. I have a screenshot. I'm not sure if I have permission to upload it to the media gallery. I also use Linux, but I did not upgrade that are still there.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files (extensions.json, extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    If Safe Mode is good, the more likely culprits are one of your extensions or incompatibility of the graphics driver. To work around the second question, you can disable use of the hardware acceleration Firefox to see if that helps.

    In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

  • After installation or upgrade to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not display the home page, personalize displays a blank page and the radio button does not work

    I am the admin of Windows for a University Department and install PC with Firefox all the time. This problem does not occur with every PC I would maintain, only a selection bit (model different laptops with Windows and update 1 8.1.) Until today, it has happened with the new user (with admin rights) accounts that I place on laptops for our staff. Today, this happened with the account administrator while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I have install Windows from a registered image that was created by using sysprep.

    I tried many suggestions to reset Firefox, removing the profile of Firefox users, removing the Windows profile users, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstall/reinstall of Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helped. After uninstalling, I run an application to delete the caches and temporary files and even remove manually the keys to register HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. I restart and make sure that the installation folder is deleted after uninstalling.

    Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial settings for migration, IE or Chrome pop up and after having clicked on the button finish, Firefox starts but does not display the home page of the new user, only a blank page. By clicking on the Options (3 bars) button does nothing. Right click in the appropriate box, the shortcut menu appears, so I can choose to customize, but which opens another tab with subject: Customize the URL and the page is blank. In the right click context menu, I can activate the menu bar and get options from that.

    My last attempt helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned, removed the profile user Firefox, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Initial start-up runs and tells me that I'm not up-to-date and the works of button Options. But I can't always customize.

    Then I upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no start page, no options button and no customization. I can go down to 30 and get customize practically works again.

    Addon only is for McAfee Scriptscan to Firefox 15.1.0, just after installation is disabled.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The size of the part has been reduced. Has expanded the area where you type URL for search engine.

It has the logo for mozilla and when I put the cursor on it, it says it all "Web site does not provide identity information." The same shows for each site than go. Yes, I can to bookmark the page without any problem and can use bookmarks to return to the page. But no URL appears in fact as he always did in the past. Oh, I have an IMac and use a keyboard of razor.

    Hello.

    You should be able to resize the address bar, if the search bar is to the right by simply sliding the space between the address bar and the search bar.

    If that does not solve your problems, it is possible that you have a problem with some Add on Firefox which is an obstacle to the normal behavior of your Firefox. Have you tried to disable all add-ons (just to see) to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you must make sure that it is not caused by one (or more) of your installed modules, whether an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do this easily and cleanly, start Firefox in safe mode (remember to select disable all add-ons when you start safe mode). If the problem goes away, you know that it's an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode and allow them one by one until you find the source of the problem. See this article for more information on troubleshooting extensions and themes and this one for plugins.

    If you need help with one of your modules, you will need to contact the author.

    If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, tell me please, then we can work from there. Please be afraid not to follow my instructions to the line, as everything can be easily undone.
