Nope... I'm not confused.

Error message: Adobe Acrobat Reader DC cannot be opened because it is not a type of supported file or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an attachment to e-mail and is not decoded)
You can "try" to save the pdf first attachment before opening it in Reader, but most of the time, that doesn't make a difference. It will confirm that the file is corrupted by email if and only not by a process involved in open it from your e-mail client.

The file you are trying to open is (you can see from the name) a BMP, PDF files no file. Adobe Reader can only open PDF files, just so stop trying to open it with Adobe Reader. The app, users of Windows for BMP files is painting.

Several files have been created and they are on my desk. When I try and open the files I have Adobe Reader could not open 'hs_err_pid14036.log' because it is not a type of file supported or because the file has been damaged. What can I do?
It seems to me that your system file associations are out of step and must be properly configured.
First, you will need to know what to use to open these files. Then you can Google how to set the file associations for any operating system you have and go and put them in the correct application.
As to why they are generated, not sure, but not something from Adobe.

Software Adobe reader could not open 'example.pdf' because it is not a file type supported or because the file has been damaged... I act not I have a problem with the 11.0.0.379 version that I have used before and I think that this problem of due before 11.0.9 version and is on the later version, including the "Adobe reader DC" the workaround that I opened the PDF file of the file in Notepad and delete the text in the top starting by <? XML 1.0 encoding and save. This fixes the problem on small files, but it does not work in larger files... How should I solve this?
If you generate files with anything before % PDF, these files are faulty. It is never allowed, but player used to tolerate it for compatibility with an obscure format Mac.

I had some problems with my computer recently I knew could be solved with the system restore. Then I went into system restore and went to a restore point that was a few weeks back. After I clicked on it and pressing the ok button, the following message appeared: "the changes made to the G: drive after this point cannot be reversed, because the drive has been either excluded from monitoring system restore or has been disabled or deleted.» I let it continue and do the restore. My computer has rebooted and came up with an error in system restore that says restore failed. It's the same thing with other restore points. I don't know why I get this error because I not made any changes to this hard drive except for copy of a document word on him. I thought that the System Restore monitors removable disks. Anyone know what is happening here and how I can get the restoration of the system to operate without the mistakes to come?
I have Norton. Disable the Tamper Protection works. I also noticed that since the G: drive was a portable hard drive, System Restore wanted to exercise oversight. He wants to monitor all hard drives. Turn on external and portable hard disks prevents tracking system restore changes to the readers. I don't think anyone would have the system restore review external drives anyway. It is not necessary.

My hosts file has been damaged. I can't change the corrupted file
My system hosts file has been corrupted by some types of malware. I'm stuck to go on sites like google and youtube.
I have windows xp family
I know what I need to change in the hosts file, but I can't change the attributes. I tried to use Notepad, but it does not record. I guess that's because it is readonly and a file system. I tried to use the cmd commands and attribute... does not work. Don't know how to change the hosts file.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Original title: update\update.exe message is not a valid file when tried to install IE8 KB2744842 patch
I got this virus live Platinum security. I think about Microsoft bulletin as CVE - 2012 - 4969 Backdoor: Win 32/Poison.BR supposedly he is gone now with PC Tools Spyware Doctor with antivirus. I can no longer get critical updates to www.update.microsoft.com and cannot go there and get either them. I have automatic updates turn on my computer, but when I go to the update site, it asks me to turn on the automatic updates, but doesn't change from red to green. If I click on the express, it gives me a message there is a problem with the web page. I have read some solutions and typed in will looking for three files like BIT and update, but the only one listed was the workstation. I did some research and found the servers to Windows IE8 patch KB2744842 and downloaded and when I tried to install it, he unpacked himself and then ran, and then I got the message saying that update\update is not a valid Win 32 application. I searched this file and found it was created on 20/09/2012, the same day I had the terrible malware and under properties, it is called configuration of Windows Service Pack, the version of the 6.3.0004.1 built by: dnsrv, internal name update.exe, English, original name: update.exe on my computer, it is C:\\bb5d6cfc84bf6a13dde9b006.update
Try to solve this problem cost me $230 plus the cost of PCTools Spyware. I called a number to the www.spywarehelpcenter.com to support when I was having trouble installing the PCTools in safemode and said Malwarebytes Pro was much better and used by companies and he said he gave me $150 off so it cost me one once charge $50 and there is no renewal and sold me a one year $ 180 contract to remove the virus and the development of my computer. He had insisted on it going remotely and showed me all these errors. I think that I made a mistake to trust him. Two technicians have worked on my computer remotely on two different days without a firewall and installed Malwarebytes Pro three times because it kept to give a message of corruption, and it is that when I pointed out to them there is no firewall that was added by a sort of sharedaccess.reg problem is I can't get and install the critical updates. I trust a third time to do things? They have deleted quite a few programs. I think that maybe the problem is that they were not aware of the fixit patch and the full patch to IE8. I run Windows XP Professional and probably should upgrade to Windows 7 in the near future.
I should add that a few days before that happened, I noticed that if I went in sysedit, the config.sys and autoexec.bat files windows were empty. My computer has always competed, but it seemed very slowly. I could not find a solution for this and read that you don't really need these files. I have the original operating system disk and has been reading how to install it, but only for the repair by pressing 'r' and let it repair missing files. So I don't know what to do. Any advice? I am so tired of this, but still have hope to operate correctly.
Hi Catnip009,
Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:
Method 1: I suggest you to download and make a bootable CD or USB to Windows Defender in offline mode, and then run the tool.
For more information, see the following articles:
What is Windows Defender in offline mode?

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Windows-Defender-offline-FAQ
Method 2: If you still experience the problem, and then run Microsoft Fixit, that might help us diagnose the problem better.

My messagestore Windows Mail file has been damaged.
My file that I use to store emails from Windows Mail has been altered somehow. It is under \AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsMail\WindowsMail.MSmessagestore
I can not get the Import Wizard to find and use the file above. I can locate if I go through my computer, but when I click on the file it just open Windows Mail.
Is anyway to fix this corrupted file? Or even just to rename so I can get in to see saved emails?
Help! Any ideas?
TIA!
The WindowsMail.MSMessageStore file is only a database that contains information about the messages. It contains no messages. The messages are in directories named after the names of folders in WinMail and are stored individually as eml files. So if you are looking for messages, search *.eml. Seewww.oehelp.com/backup.aspx for background.Steve"TinaC60" wrote in message News: cc7fde99-9a4e-4f1c-87de-cad8ab591051...Good, try repair the database and compress them. Also clean the empty files. But the Import Wizard still can't find the file. :( Thanks anyway!
