New administrator account askes what program to run exe files with can "run as administrator" Control Panel links rundll32.exe not found?

I deleted the old account and created a new for my son to play games. This account is all messed up. When I try to run a program I get this window that asks what my program that I want to use to open a program!  I can right click and run as administrator password and I'm good. I can right click and start firefox for example by opening firefox with firefox.  This same window icons in the taskbar. And the items in the control panel sounds an error and open a warning that says: 'cannot find c:\windows\system32\rundll32.exe' I don't see why - it's a new account and I can find this file with the other account. Obviously something is wrong but where?

    * original title - Hey everyone, I have some problems with my computer and I don't know how to fix them *.

Only new concern I have is some box kept popping up when I turned my computer saying 'Bad Image' or something. But it no longer occurs. I'll be restart my computer later to see if still appears once, but overall, everything is fine.

  • What program opens the .dvd file created on a Windows XP computer?

    I tried to open the video that have a .dvd file extension. I tried several trial programs, but none does not recognize the extension. The videos were created on my old computer using Windows XP, but many programs I moved were lost when the hard drive is gone on my new Vista machine. I do not have Vista Ultimate so I can't use the previous versions feature and I tried so many programs to open these films that the Properties tab shows that this last program that the file 'opens with '. I guess I need to know what program created the.dvd files and what I can do to save them. I don't have the original avi or mpeg files any longer. Thanks in advance,

    You're welcome... and thanks for the comments.

    Congratulations for the recovery of your files.

  • I can not install any programs in windows 8. I can download from the download section, but they will not run

    I tried disabling Norton, closed and restarted windows - nothing works. Can I install the Java exe file but not from anywhere else.

    Giv me like a hint what is wrong. I also cleaned the registry.

    Have you tried to create a new user account and try to install from there (just to see if it works).

    If this does not work, try to do a refresh to see if it solves the problem:

    Here's what happens when you refresh your PC:
    · Your files and your personalization settings do not change.

    · Your PC will change back to their default values.

    · Applications that you have installed discs or sites Web is removed.

    · A list of removed apps will be saved to your desktop.

    These steps will take you through refreshing your PC:

    · Press the Windows key + C on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

    · Click settings

    · Click change PC settings

    · Click general in the left column

    · Under refresh your PC without affecting your files, click Start

    Then follow the instructions that will be provided on-screen to cool your PC.

  • When I go to open a file a box comes up to choose what program I want to open with.

    When I go to open a file a box comes up to choose what program I want to open with.  At the bottom of this box is a place where I'm supposed to be able to check who always says "use this program to open this file" I can't check this box.  I open office.org and it allows to automatically save in this format.  Microsoft word program has been installed on my computer and he began to do what I said above then my daughter-in-law.  I've since removed the Microsoft Word program, but it continues to make me choose program to open whenever I try to open a document that was created after she comes to settle the Microsoft word porgram.  Now, even if I had clicked on save in openoffice.org, with that I always get this box asking me what program I want to open.  Thank you for your help.  Marilyn.

    I guess the box to "always use the selected program to open this kind of file" is grayed out, and that's why you can not check it out.  Is this correct?  Is this true for the two files that were created in OpenOffice files AND that were created in Microsoft Word (note that created is the same that that edited not)?

    In OpenOffice, make sure that the "automatic file name extension" option is enabled in the file "Save as" dialog box.

    • Click on "My Documents" (or open Windows Explorer and go everywhere where your documents).
    • Click Tools > Folder Options and then click the view tab
    • Scroll down to the bottom of the "Advanced settings" area and make sure that "Hide extensions of known file types" is NOT checked.
    • Click OK

    Find one or more files that is causing problems.  Which file extensions are displayed (3 characters after the dot in the filename) on these files?

    Hi Jack,

    This driver belongs to AsIO.sys Asus Probe. Try to uninstall Asus Probe and if you need, install again. If this does not help, uninstall Asus Probe and other tools of control such as Speedfan. Open the registry (regedit.exe) editor and search for AsIO.sys and remove all the entries that you can find.

  • Should what programs I run at the beginning?

    I'm just trying to improve the performance of my computer, but I don't want to stop to run at startup, which should run at startup.

    First, note that the stop something start automatically when
    you start peut improve your performance, but it may not. More likely
    It will improve takes how long to start, but then have little or no
    effect on performance after that.
    Second, note that if you want a program runs all the time, it
    makes no difference to performance, it starts automatically or
    start you manually once the initialization is complete. As a unique example of
    I want my e-mail all the time running program, I have start
    automatically. Performance is no different now then it was back when I
    used to run it manually.

    Note also that you should be concerned of all the programs that start
    automatically, not only those who enter in the system tray. Not
    all programs start manifesting by an icon in the status bar.

    You do not have absolutely need anything be it start automatically. Almost
    Everyone must have its security programs from
    automatically - antivirus, anti-spyware (if you have one), and
    Firewall. Almost all the rest is up to you.

    On each program, you don't want to automatically start, check its
    Options to see if he has the choice of not start (make sure you)
    Indeed choose not to run, not just a "don't show icon.
    Optional). Many can easily and better be arrested like that. If that is not
    work, run MSCONFIG from the start. Run the line, and then click the Startup tab.
    Uncheck the programs that you do not want to automatically start.

    However, if I were you, I wouldn't do it just for the application of
    the minimum number of running programs. Despite what many people say
    You should be concerned, not with the way that a lot of these programs
    you run, but who. Some of them can degrade performance severely, but
    others have no effect on performance.

    Don't stop all programs to run willy-nilly. What you need to do
    is to determine what each program is, what its value is up to you which
    the performance cost is its running all the time. You can try
    Internet search and ask questions about the details here.

    Once you have this information, you can make a smart informed
    decision on what you want to keep and what you want to get rid of.
