• startup programs are missing

  Hello

  ·         The problem : most of my laptop computer startup programs is missing (originally, I had 42 now 11) they does not appear in the startup list in msconfig.

  ·         Effects of the problem: most of the programs initially installed on my laptop are not working + cannot print using WIFI + some of my buttons mobile phone lost their functions.

  ·         Why it happened: I have disabled all programs start with Norton 360 and then I uninstalled Norton 360 because my computer laptop freeze a lot with installed it on my laptop, re installed Norton 360 with a new version (v5) and now if I open the startup program manager I can't see my old startup programs.

  ·         No I have tried using the restore point? : My most old restore point is after the problem.

  ·         I spoke with Norton support? : Yes

  ·         I have found a solution ? : no

  ·         I use antivirus software now? : NO.

  Hi jassemali,

  ·         Did you check if the system is now in Normal startup?

  ·         All programs work well?

  First of all we will run the system configuration utility and check if the computer is configured to start in normal condition. See step 7 of this article.

  I would say that download and install Microsoft Security Essentials as your security program.

  Do not answer with the results.

• How can I configure to open only exhausted programs at startup

  When I reboot the system, all files on the opens the start (for example Picasa) menu and I do not need them to open on a daily basis.  Is it possible to set only the programs that I use regularly to open at startup?

  A program is displayed on the Start Menu, it does not mean that it runs at startup. If you have the program or a shortcut elsewhere, you can delete it in the Start Menu.

  First to see what programs run at startup, check the startup folder on the start menu. All programs.

  Then, go to start | Run and type msconfig

  On the Startup tab, you can uncheck the nonessential programs.

• "c:\program files" opens at startup.

  Hi all, thank you in advance for your help.
  I am running win xp home edition.  When I boot the dir 'c:\program files' opens automatically.  Note that I do not mean c:\program files\common files.  the dir, who opens is "c:\program files" with three word in the dir documents.  so my question is sorta twofold. Why what is happening and how to stop it from happening?  Thanks again, Chris

  It works like a charm for this problem.
  I want to offer thanks to a hacked Silbylaw guys for this fix.

  "And well, here's the deal. You have this stupid coming folder when you start?

  C:\Program Files\Fichiers

  The reason is that the registry is reading through the entries and as the previous poster said, there is no quotes around C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec\... etc.

  whats going to happen, is that windows will read the value until it can load this thing his tent to load (in this case, you want to load ccapp.exe or something else).

  BUT here's the big thing, it will read until it CAN open something (if your value is not in brackets).

  In this case, it is open C:\Program Files\Common because he got to that part of the value and said ' OK, well, I can open this folder! It is this value that finished playing! »

  Now, the thing is, this folder C:\Program Files\Common does not usually exist and honestly has NO purpose! It is empty. Delete it! This is what caused the problems.

  I did a test with this, I got a computer that works very well with Norton and everything, then I simply created a folder named C:\Program Files and did a reset.

  All of a sudden wasn't Norton, and the folder popped up at startup.

  Delete the folder, reset, things worked fine.

  Add quotes to the registry values is a fix, but it is only temporary. What happens when you install several programs and they have values not in square brackets, in C:\Program Files\Common Files\... etc? The same problem will occur.

  This is not unusual as far as I can guess. If you have created a folder named C:\Program then you'd have the same problem, but this time a fodler called C:\Program would open at startup, and all of your registration keys starting with C:\Program Files\... etc startup fails.

  So in conclusion, the problem is not norton or your firewall, or everything you think it can be. Your unlisted registry values are normal, they will work on a computer without the strange folder.
  The problem lies in the way the bed registry values of unlisted registry and this being combined with a folder that has no purpose and screw everything up. (C:\Program Files)
  I have accumulated my brain for about an hour with this problem, and after doing some research and experiments, it is my last conclusive answer.

  CAUSE: Setup created Sloppy 'C:\Program Files' for no reason

  SOLUTION: Delete the folder "C:\Program Files". Leave your registry database as it is! »

• How to manage startup programs if Windows Defender open habit?

  When I try to change startup programs, I get an error Windows Defender message: 0x800106ba when I click on the link to open Windows Defender. It used to open this way recently and I read that it might have something to do with other antivirus programs. I was not able to open Windows Defender for the month from the list of programs, but I've always been able to open it when I try to change startup programs, until, like yesterday.

  You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

  When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
  -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

  You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

  1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
  2. click on the System Restore tab.
  3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
  4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
  5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

  You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

  Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

  -Click OK.
  -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
