My computer removes the programs and changes the way it works without my help or knowledge

Hello

I had a problem recently with my computer changes the way it works with some programs. I use my computer to print postage labels, and all of a sudden, now it asks me to save in my documents before I can print them. I did have to take the additional step before.

And also, I use Adobe Acrobat to print the labels, and this afternoon, I printed a label and then had to leave. When I came back home I need to print another label, but kept getting the error 'invalid registry. When I checked the Adobe Acrobat program was missing from my computer?

I'm the only person in my family who use this computer. Who removed the program? Can I have a virus? My computer works just fine in general, it's fast and responsive. Is it Spyware or malware? Everyone is faced with this problem?

Thank you for your help...

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/143447-audio-device-enable-hidden-devices.html

    the mic input is enabled)
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/connect-a-microphone-music-player-or-other-audio-device-to-your-computer

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pilots may also need to be updated:

    Control Panel - device - SOUNDS - look for HD Audio Manager - Mine said RealTek high definition
    Audio (this is an example and you can have an other name/maker).

    Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
    Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

    If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question.

    Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
    Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

    Check the Version tab of the driver in the Device Manager as the restoration of the sound card drivers often
    and then install the latest version. Restart and check after each test, not
    rare to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more. Just the version make sure you
    installed shows upward on the tab of the driver.

    Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Eraser and pen brush Photoshop stop working without any reason. Brush allows only straight lines as now the shift (but not in possession of something) and gum does not react. Nothing is selected, checked. Everything is normal, the computer works fine and other tools also. Problem goes away by itself when waiting & hiding the Photoshop or re-opening of the program.

  • Remove the iOS Beta access without pre-beta of backups

    I don't have yet to find a definitive answer to this question so let me explain my situation.

    I've been unregistered iOS beta program. I rebooted my iPhone 6 and Air 2 iPad in recovery and restored of iOS 9.1 beta to version iOS official mode (9.1 [B 13, 143]). The two devices are now running the official version as a result of this process, unfortunately I am still prompted to download the latest version of the beta software (9.2 Public Beta 4) and I still have access to the application of your comments (even if I'm supposed to be able to submit comments now that I reconnect).

    Now, I am aware that it would be the correct procedure to restore a backup before I installed the beta software. Unfortunately, it was my first foray in the test of a public beta for iOS (on my primary device no less) so I wasn't careful to keep these separate backups. In other words, I either deleted or saved on them. Similarly, even if I could somehow restore the backups using Time Machine, spent so much time that I'm not sure what I would have on my devices after the restoration of my pre-Beta State.

    So, to my question. Is it possible to completely remove the version beta of my phone as I am is more invited automatically download and install the new beta software? I want to be free from Beta fully all keeping all the data I stored in apps on my devices.

    Is it still possible? And if this isn't the case, which suggests a as the best way to remove the beta version completely and then restoring all my individual pieces of data. Music, books and other apps can easily be restored from my computer. But the information within my apps is what I'm worried will get lost, and that I'm afraid I'll have to save and restore on a case-by-case. I'd like to avoid as much as possible of this option.

    Thanks for your help

  • Gradient fades started acting weird. Each new fade removes the previous. VERY FRUSTRATED! Help, please!

    Hello

    I have been using CS5 for about 2 years now and all of a sudden it began to act up. I do a lot of fading gradient on the photos of the band, that is to say their fading into one another. I am a novice at best, but I have a working knowledge of the program. A few weeks ago my gradients started acting goofy. Normally, I could take a picture, melted the transparent edges multiple times on the same mask. IE I could open a layer mask, all fades I wanted and then move to the next photo. Now, I'm doing a fade, then when I try to do a second, it removes the first.

    This same thing happened to me a few months ago, but I don't remember how I fixed it. I scoured google and went on an endless search of people having this problem and told to use other tools, other methods, etc. I know what I'm doing (and have done successfully for 2 years) for whatever reason something is twisted, or change a setting that allow me to I reset gradients, followed by the preferences button Reset procedure and even completely uninstalled the program of my rig and re-installed. Nothing did.

    Help, please!
