My computer isn't up-to-date?

For a long time, my computer has no automatic updates.  Suddenly, my computer told me he download 71 updates and refused to stop the wuaulct.exe process, even after I kept ending the process.  After the Technology Department at my school has convinced me to go with the updates, whenever I connect, I see the yellow shield looking at me from the corner of the screen.  What is happening and it is a Trojan horse?  How can I get rid of him?  Thank you!!

  • The computer hangs when copying the data on the hard drive

    * Problem *:

    My computer freezes whenever I have transfer large amounts_ of the data on the disc from my computer. * It doesn't have this problem with my C drive *.

    First detected this problem while I was transferring some data in LAN. This problem occurs even when I copy data to my C drive to the D drive.

    Action taken:

    -Performed a full scan of my computer, found some viruses, but the problem persists
    -Do you have a check disk via Windows, as well as the TuneUp utility, no problem.

    Data sheet:
    OS: Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
    Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo t7200 @ 2.00GHz
    RAM: 1 GB DDR2 - SDRAM

    No partitions: 2

    Hello

    It of difficult to say what might be wrong here but if the question appears only using the second partition, then I recommend to check the State of the HARD drive.
    I use a very good freeware tool called Drive Fitness Test.
    Use google to download this software.

    It creates a boot disk that allows you to test the drive HARD and of course the two partitions.
    If the error would be detected, then it means that the HARD drive failure could be the reason for this

  • will choose the manually back option in iTunes backup everything that is on my iPhone to my computer? Including the app data

    Not a problem just a question. I intend to sell my apple iPhone, it's not compatible with my new wireless network. I can't afford to buy an iPhone outright at the moment, but I plan in the future. I want to backup everything on my iPhone to my Mac so that I can restore the data to a new iPhone later. The current iPhone 5 is already set to save important things to iCloud, if I choose the option with a manual backup encryption will be that record everything, including all the data from the app? Sorry if this is a stupid question, I want to just make sure I have everything before you send the iPhone.

    Hello CallRinny,

    I understand that you have a question about your iTunes backups and that you should use. Back on which covers.

    In general, an iTunes backup will cover pretty much everything on your iPhone. The best thing to watch over it, it's what doesn't iTunes back upwards and which covers the encrypted backup. Take a look at the information below to clarify this. I would also do that applications will be recorded in your iTunes library, so when you restore your backup, apps will sync back to the wire in one sitting instead to download on the App Store.

    On safeguards in iCloud and iTunes
    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT204136

    backup iTunes

    On your Mac or PC, you can make a backup of your device in iTunes. Synchronize your device with your computer is not the same as performing a backup.

    An iTunes backup includes almost all settings and data from your device. An iTunes backup does not include:

    • Content of the iTunes and App Store or directly downloaded from iBooks PDF files (you can save this content using transfer purchases in iTunes.)
    • Synchronized content from iTunes, as imported MP3s or CDs, videos, books and photos
    • Photos already stored in the cloud, like My Photo Stream and iCloud photo library
    • Tap Settings ID
    • Settings and information Apple pay
    • Data activity, health, and keychain (to save this content, you will need to use iTunes backup encrypted ).

    Learn How to perform backups in iTunes, how to find them on your Mac or PC, and how to delete backups you no longer need.

    Let me know if this clears it for you.

    Take care

  • Older graphics drivers 1 year on my computer is really up-to-date?

    I downloaded the latest graphics drivers from intel for the Intel HD Graphics 4400 on my Aspire V5 - 573P, but when I try to run setup.exe as an administrator, I get the message: "the pilot is not validated for this computer. You can get the specific driver from the manufacturer of the computer. "I have 10 64-bit installed Windows. According to Device Manager, my current graphics drivers are 365 days old. When I try to update automatically, windows tells me that they are up-to-date.

    Hello

    Do you have problems with the graphics driver? I mean it does not work as expected?

    If you have a custom driver manufacturer installed on your laptop and intel recommend to have these drivers because they are optimized for your system. In some cases, however, the manufacturer may 'forgot' about it and leave a buggy one. There are examples of this on the forum (glance to VN7 - 591 G).

    So if you really want to upgrade your graphics card to the latest version of intel, re-download the graphic file to intel, not the .exe but the .zip one. Unzip somewhere on Notepad and then go to Device Manager---> find the graphics card intel---> right click and select Update driver software---> browse my computer---> select the location where you unziped the drivers. It should install the drivers in this way.

  • Computer does not accept the dates of restoration?

    The almost immediate and repetitive Google chrome crashing drove me to the restore point.  Then, during the last part of the "System Restore" process, computer says that he cannot accept a given restore date.  Afterwards, I checked every available date and it would not accept any of them.

    It's normal when you have a number any conflicting security programs installed. For more information, read:

    http://bertk.MVPs.org/html/srfail.html

    BTW, System Restore should be used in some situations. I'm not sure that Google Chrome crashing would be one of them. If this is your only problem, uninstall and then reinstall Google Chrome are probably your best choice.

    Other browsers work correctly? Other alternatives to IE8 include Firefox and Opera.

    I can tell you one thing with certainty. Even if you install latest graphic driver Intel then will not increase performance much, because these cards are low quality products. In their case, the most important is the stability that is afforded by the driver provided by HP.

  • My computer isn't letting me log on to my other user accounts.

    The main login screen is completely different. Now it is only a small window with my moms user account name and a space for a password. I have no possibility to change account.

    I did nothing to my computer in a week. I have connected a couple times on my moms account so it is connected for some time. When it was first locked, it is an administrator account. I could go and watch my other accounts, but there was no way to logon. Unfortunately, I thought that if I changed my moms for a limited account account, that it would change to the normal login screen. There can be no. It's always the same small window and it connects only to my mother. Although this time, I am unable to view my other accounts. It seems that there is only one account on my computer so I can only show my moms.
    This is getting very frustrating. I have no idea what to do and I have not seen any other problem like mine. My computer is not locked or anything... it shows only one account. My documents are on my user account (which is an administrator). I have my music (itunes) and other important things. I really hope that I'm not all that or I really hope that I have not already lost. I honestly have no idea what to do. So please reply and help me with this. I need to get on my account.
    Not sure if this will help, but my computer is a Dell and it's an Inspiron 1525.
    Please answer.

    Hey flatcoat4247,

    O are you talking about the gadget?

    O also, do you mean to say the version of Internet Explorer 9 (Beta)?

    This behavior is most often observed if the XML registration is missing in the system. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

    a. close Windows Sidebar. To do this, right-click on the Sidebar icon in the Notification area, and then click exit.

    b. open an elevated command prompt window.

    To do:

    i. click on Start > all programs.

    II. click Accessories.

    III. right click on invite and then click run as administrator.

    c. in the command prompt window, type the following command and press ENTER:

    regsvr32 msxml3.dll

    Similarly, run these commands:

    regsvr32 scrrun.dll

    regsvr32 jscript.dll

    If the registration was successful, you will see the message DllRegisterServer in succeeded to for each executed command.

    d. open Windows Sidebar (sidebar.exe) and check if the problem is resolved.

    See if it works.

  • Why my computer isn't asking my office password remotely?

    Hello

    I have remote desktop laptop at home (Windows 7 Pro) on my work computer (Windows Server 2008 R2). I have a user name and password on the remote computer, but for some reason any for the past few days when I start an RDP session of my home computer, I'm not be prompted to enter my remote user name and the password. I am currently connected directly to my account on the remote computer. I don't remember changing all the settings on my computer at home or the remote control for example save the user name or password. So not sure why this is happening.
    How can I activate the userid and password prompt return on?

But after that investigation more realized that the 'ask me for the zone audit powers"was not checked in the options. So I checked him and everything is good now - be prompted for my user name and password when you connect.
