To uninstall of updates old (3 years) to offer more memory Yes, no ok OK no no?

Synchronicity says:

To uninstall of updates old (3 years) to offer more memory Yes, no ok OK no no?

 
Seriously?
 
Your goal is to save space by opeing of security vulnerabilities?
Interesting tactics - I guess.
 
Personally, I'd say you'd be better compensation to archiving, uninstalling unused applications space or upgrade to a larger hard drive.

    I brought back to the restore point but everything is ok, but the color keeps taking after about 30 secinds when loading points. Any ideas please.

    Find them in the hardware manufacturer's Web site.

    Find the latest graphic drivers:

    Go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your laptop computer-graphics/computer card > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

    See you soon.

  • Is impossible to turn on the guest account. Cannot create new user account. "The service user profile Service has no logon. User profile cannot be loaded. »

    Is impossible to turn on the guest account.  Cannot create new user account.  After to try one of those and reboot, the icons of account appear, but when you try to use, the following instructions of error present when you try to log in with the new account or comments: "the user profile Service service has no logon.  User profile cannot be loaded. "I looked at the answers to all the previous ones (including the KB947215) and no not to address specifically.  For the most part, they seem to assume that there is a guest or a new profile in the first place...

    The system is Win 7 Pro 64-bit with all available updates.  I can't say when the last time that the guest account has worked (rarely used) and just found out I can't do new additional user, accounts trying to solve the problem of account of comments... so I have not tried to enter Safe Mode and do a system restore , because I can't yet identify a useful restore point...

    There are no entries in the registry for a guest or a new standard user account.  The registry entries for the three accounts normal-quickly (2 x admin, 1 x level) seem to be appropriate.  Watch register computer/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

    S-1-5-18 = system profile

    19 = local service,

    20 = network service,

    21 long numbers + 1004 plus User1 (admin),

    22 long + 1005 plus 2 user (admin),

    23 plus long + 1006 is user3 (standard,

    and no comments or additional profiles appear.

    User2,

    No guest or additional profile appear.

    All except the default user (I can't open) seem to have the appropriate, NTUser.DAT files although I don't know how to check for corruption.  Having both a default value

    and a default user folder seems hokey.

    I think I understand instructions how to fix or remove a corrupted profile, but that does not apply to the guest account or profiles that do not exist.

    Help?  Ideas?

    This message contains the strange solution.

    [Plan B - I found one thread where one user said that the same symptoms of the problem that you experience this problem solved]

    - - - - - - - - - - -

    Plan h - while another user said that it was caused by a file Windows Live problem

    This is the thread I can not create a new user account (Windows 7): the user profile service service doesn't have the logon

    You find it difficult to follow the thread as it's long and reported problem by different people to confuse it and there is also a bit of bickering [long filaments often end up being quite incomprehensible].

    ..., See references to the event viewer in the middle of page 4 and Windows Live we [at the bottom of page 2 more on page 3].

    I see not the logic of the any of those things, but if one of them do things long enough that you are trying to create new accounts that works, you will know how in the future until a proper solution is found.

    This is the useful part where this user has tested the solutions proposed in this thread linked above: -.

    This has proved to contain leads to a difficulty.  Have to admit, when I read everything the first time, several days, I did indeed find it confusing and even the parts that I "heard" (sorta) does not appear to be related to my symptoms.

    It turns out that the answer of JDMICHAL May 17, 2011 contained this:

    (1) C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows open live
    (2) this directory has two subdirectories with a single file of each. Go into each directory and apply the following:
    (a) make a right click on the file, open the properties.
    (b) click the Security tab.
    (c) it will issue a message: "to continue, you must be an administrative user with permission to view this object's security properties. Would continue you? ». Click on the button continue.
    (d) click on the Add button...
    (e) ' everyone' type in the box at the bottom of the dialog box. Click on "check names"; It should be emphasized the "everyone". Click OK.
    (f) ensure that the new "Everyone" entry "read" and "read & run" check under the column "allow".

    After doing this for two files, attempt to connect to the account. He must undergo.

    The procedure (bascially) worked... Although the different answers on my system differed slightly along the way (perhaps due to the slightly different versions of Win 7?, because I was already logged in as an administrator?).

    In any case, "Everyone" with the read and read/execute permissions adding to these two files seems to have done the trick:

    C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Bici\Bici1_00.sqm

    and

    C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm

  • HP Pavilion Notebook 15-p045tx: wireless capability is turned off, the Wi - Fi button on / off Greyed Out

    Hello

    I was faced with this problem for a lot of time.

    The Network Diagnostics, it gives this error:

    WiFi is disabled

    I don't have any hardware button that can wifi device off / turn on my keyboard, see the example image below:

    I never turned off the device physics wifi directly or from the BIOS.

    Tried the "f12" also, airplane Mode which also did not help.

    in any case, I tried on things until now, nothing helps:

    (1) reset BIOS HP using HP Usb Disk

    2) update drivers wireless Broadcom using HP Support Assistant

    (3) re - install the Broadcom drivers

    (4) install the Realtek drivers

    (5) Restroing 8.1 full disk recovery Windows.

    (6) installed Linux (Ubuntu/Fedora), but that also free WiFi does not appear.

    Please guide me what can be the possible cause of this problem.

    The issue seems to be with my wifi chip.

    Eventualy I had to take the laptop to the Service Center. The guy tried everything I did once again.

    Finally, the issue is resolved, he plugged into the smart wifi, cleaned both ends, a little with the help of an eraser and reinserted and voila, it has detected. He said it could be the issue of carbon deposited on the ends of the chip connection.

    Since then, I've encountered same question several times, and everything I do is open my laptop, plug out a smart WiFi card mother, clean up a bit and plug it again.

    And he started working like a charm.

    Maybe it is loose or I don't know what the exact problem is.

    But he still has a problem with the antenna, I get very low my wifi signal, even if I'm in the right range of wifi router.

    Hello

    I'm on macbook pro 13-inch (mid-2012), and without knowing it, I turned on the Arch of fire during a software update (El Capitan 10.11.5). The encryption process has started and if I don't want to read more, which will make my slow mac? or encryption is slow mac anyway?

    or at the end of the encryption process, my mac is slow?

    waiting for a quick response.

    Thank you

    I have a MacBook Air with active FileVault 2012. There is no significant difference in performance. Note, however, that there will be a performance impact until the original encryption is complete and that it doesn't have a way to stop it.

    Software distribution service 3.0 is a system restore point, not an update.
