  • When you try to start the programs of their shortcuts, I always get a window MS-DOS pop up

    When you try to start the programs of their shortcuts, I always get a window MS-DOS pop up.  The header says 16-bit subsystem MS_DOS.  For example, when you try to start Microsoft Word, the message says:

    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Menu demarrer\programmes\microsoft Office\Microsoft Office Word 2003.lnk program invalid file name, please check your pif file.

    I can start the program by clicking on any document in my documents file, however.  I know that something is messed up in the registry (we had a bad worm (MS Removal Tool).  However, I can't a registry cleaner to open.  I used a WinXP_EXE_Fix.reg to try to fix the missing exe file.  He has set a number of things, but still will not let me run a registry clean.

    When you try to start Firefox, even once, I got a message saying "close Firefox. A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time. "This issue is addressed in Mozillazine but nothing I've tried there seems to work. I started a new profile in the profile manager that gets at least upwards and the functioning, but strangely enough the Manager also told me the old (default) profile is still underway, although I can't find a way to close it. Also, I can't find the default profile in my Profile Manager. can anyone help?

    I get the same problem from time to time. It is not a solution but I go into Task Manager (select by right clicking on an empty area of the start bar) and under the research process and, invariably, there is a 'hidden' version to use the FF. I selects & close via Task Manager and then am able to restart FF.

  • How can I get my printer spooler running I get error 1075 when I try to start it

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    If you see something like this:

    Cannot start service on Local computer print spooler.
    Error 1075: The dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion.

    Error 1075 means "ERROR_SERVICE_DEPENDENCY_DELETED".

    This means that there is some Service think that it depends on to start the Print Spooler Service that is missing.  It's maybe the printing or drivers that have been uninstalled software.

    If really, the dependency service exists and simply not work (dependence, Services must be started and running), you will get an error like this:

    Cannot start service on Local computer print spooler.
    Error 1068: The dependency service or group could start.

    You now or you already had all of the installed Lexmark printers?

    If the Service print spooler used to work well, do you have added or removed all printers since he worked?

    To view your Services, click Start, run and enter in the box:

    services.msc

    Click OK to open the Services Applet.

    Highlight the Print Spooler Service, right-click and choose properties you can see what is happening.  You will be especially interested in the startup (generally set to automatic) type and the items listed in the Dependencies tab.

    Always print spooler Service usually depends on the remote procedure call (RPC) Service is running, so if the remote procedure call (RPC) Service is not running, find it in your Services, launch it and set the startup type to automatic.

    If the remote procedure call (RPC) Service is not listed as a dependency for the Print Spooler Service, you can add it.

    You must see what Services depends on your Print Spooler Service, and then restart them (and their startup type automatic value), or if you have the dependency Services listed for items that are more installed on your system, you must inform the print spooler that she needs more of them to start.  Registered Addiction Services that are no longer needed must be removed.

    For example, I said to my Print Spooler Service depends on the remote procedure call (RPC) Service, and also depends on the Service Jose (and of course there is no Jose service).

    When I try to start my Print Spooler Service, I get an error 1075.  It's logical.

    If I look at the Print Spooler Service properties Dependencies tab in the applet Services however, it does not list the Jose Service as a dependency, but if I query the Print Spooler Service broken from a command prompt, I can see what ir really depends on to start and it looks like this:

    [SC] GetServiceConfig SUCCESS

    Service_Name: Spooler
    TYPE: 110 WIN32_OWN_PROCESS (interactive)
    STARTUP TYPE: 2 AUTO_START
    ERROR_CONTROL: 1 NORMAL
    BINARY_PATH_NAME: C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exe
    LOAD_ORDER_GROUP: SpoolerGroup
    TAG                               : 0
    Display_name: Print spooler
    DEPENDENCIES: rpcss
    Jose
    SERVICE_START_NAME: LocalSystem
           
    I need to delete the Service jose as a dependency for the Print Spooler Service (and leave just the rpcss Service), then the Print Spooler Service will start.

    If you don't see the problem in the Print Spooler service dependencies tab, see what are actually of a command prompt window Print Spooler Service dependencies.  To do this, click on start run and in the type box:

    cmd

    Click OK to open a command prompt window.

    In the command prompt window, query the spooler to print (spooler) Service by entering the following command:

    sc qc spooler

    Whatever it is listed under needs of DEPENDENCIES is running before starting the print spooler.

    If there are DEPENDENCIES listed for things that are more installed, you can fix it, but first of all, we need to know what is indicated, then we can remove the ones that are not needed.

    If you make adjustments, do not forget to restart your system and make sure that changes "stick".

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

  • Firefox crashes when you try to start it

    My firefox browser started to plant about two days ago in the blue. I don't remember having installed a plugin or something like that day. When I try to start firefox it's blocking 2 seconds later and with a lot of luck I can do it again in safe mode. But most of the time, even in this case the browser crashes, which is very suspicious. Internet Explorer, however, works perfectly. But since I have not used for years, I want to stick to Mozilla.
