Pavilion 6710f: restore files and programs after a restore with

When I suspected that my hard drive was not tried recovery to factory settings and when asked if I wanted a backup I agreed and after many hours, there has been a backup and a restore to the factory settings were made. I got the backup on my desk, but before each file instead which is theirs (wherever it is) I wonder if an old image of windows that I would be best to use? He will restore programs without having to reinstall the. And restore my files to which they belong, rather than on my desktop?

What Windows Image backup program you used.

HP backup file should be restored to where they were originally.  No problem, this should be minimal.

    It's exactly the same problem that I have now, as well as some sections of the control panel not working not at all, but there is no answer about what to do after the malware has been removed. Is there a way this can be fixed now?

  • Cannot open/save to files and programs after installing Windows updates

    original title: Windows Update - major problems

    My daughter has an HP laptop.  She has downloaded the Windows updates and now she can't open most of its programs.  Those that it can open, will not work correctly.  Some won't let him save, some will leave him no open files she saved in them.  If she tries to delete any program in the Control Panel, add and remove, she receives a message that there is a mistake and that the program has already been deleted. (Even the programs that it can open, but do nothing). Some of its programs to tell him that she is missing a .dll file.  If she found on the Internet and she sees something she wants to save, she used to be able to right click and save, now it does not get the dialog box when it right click.  She uses Firefox not Internet Explorer.  When she downloaded updates, the resarted the computer as usual, but when he arrived at stage 3 of 3 it locked to 0% (with NO hard disk activity) and would not go further.  She let it harden for more than half an hour and finally pressed the power button to force it to turn it off.  When she turned her back on updates have continued as usual.  Is there a undate for the Wacom which was attached to the computer at a time. Everything worked fine before she comes to install the updates.

  • How can I recover the files and programs before a system restore? my document folders are all empty and my programs will not open!

    How can I recover the files and programs before a system restore?  my document folders are all empty and my programs will not open!

    I know they are there and hidden somewhere, but this restoration took my settings of the computer to 2004! We lost all our data, our software that we use to operate our company at home, our quickbooks that has all our financial data, family photos, videos, Outlook will work not so no e-mail, all turned in time and 6 years ' worth of documents have disappeared.

    What happeneded was that I was trying to upgrade to quickbooks software when I got an error, I cancelled out of the facility, then restarted and that's when I got an error hal.dll something? I thought about a system restore would allow me to go back in time to just before when the error occurred, but he basically took my computer back to factory settings, so all the programs that I installed and paid hundreds of dollars for the past six years has disappeared, Microsoft Office and very expensive construction estimating software that we wil have to pay once AGAIN for If I can't get this program working properly.

    I am a fool! I can't believe what's happening.

    Someone at - it instructions on how I can retrieve either the programs and data that I need specifically or how to go and seek shade from the files I read online on and restore my computer for about 12 hours ago?

    Thank you all!

    Looks like you did a system rather than a system restore recovery.  If you have inserted a disc supplied with your machine and booted from it, you probably erased the disc and installed the original operating system provided with your computer.  Usually, a step in this recovery is to do a full format or quick of your drive.  If you did a full format, your data is permanently lost.  With a quick format, your data may still be there, somewhere but inaccessible by normal means.  Applications must generally be installed, in order to recover the files probably will not help unless you have the original installation media.  Your other data files (images, videos, financial data) may be salvageable, but at this point, it would be advisable to take your computer or your disk to a business/professional who is experienced with data disc recovery.  It will be cheap and there is no guarantee.

    Impatient, remember investigate you a backup strategy for your computer and critical data.  Hard drives can go wrong with little or no warning.

  • Comment to recover missing components after having moved from "Adobe" from program files and program files on another hard drive internal?

    Hello

    I know that the title is long, but I'll try to be clear. I am currently working a lot on Premiere Pro CS6, since I else riding between movies and my drive Windows C is saturated. Jso got the real good idea to create an Adobe folder on one of my other internal drives and y 'cut and paste' (the thing never to do...) "Adobe" from program files and program files, in order to address space. So I created a file Program Files and another program with them each in a subfolder 'Adobe'. Following this bad initiative, opening again my firstsoftware, you can imagine that I had several bugs no one telling me that it lacked components (obviously) and my renderings, which once on two resulted in a "the software has stopped Monday and needs to close" (trickier).

    I have the coup d'etat switched back the folders on drive C (story of a little more drive the nail), the missing components error message no longer appears, however problems rendering and stop persistent software.  Knowing that about 15 GB is miraculously freed himself... not what is more difficult, but also probably explains the bugs...:)

    My question is the following should I uninstall and reinstall (Creative suite) where there's a you it another solution pour everything in order? Knowing it will take anyway that my C drive is dé-sature a bit.

    Thanking you sincerely pour your help, your guidance, your time.

    You cannot move a folder from one drive to another program (as you know) because that destroys the links that the operating system must have in order to run a program

    Disable this feature to unlock your serial number... Uninstall... Install fresh... also, the Adobe programs do not LIKE to install other drivers

    Move the data files to another disk to free up space on your C drive

  • Folders, files and programs from a folder called 'research', can I get back them?

    I found a folder named "research." I looked at it and saw that can be found just about everything I downloaded. Movies, etc. I started to delete some and realized that I should not delete. Tried to recover - no chance. Half my office has disappeared, and lots of folders and files and programs are gone, I'm in a mess. Any suggestions, other than a.38?

    I really hope that someone can help you. I'm at my wits end, thinking that I can't do anything. I need help. Is there anyone out there?

    Also a 38 a clean reinstall is your best option.

    Sometimes to try to solve the problems takes longer than a reinstall.

    In addition, a resettlement gets rid of questions that your computer has.

    You should have a factory restore the image on your hard drive.

    With the factory restore, it is quick and easy.

    If you don't factory nor manual reinstall consider buying Service Packs.

    This page will display the SP1 of Vista, under the heading: order a DVD of Windows Vista SP1, click on your region and then select your country and will take you to a page where you can buy the SP1 and SP2

    Save the link and it's also for others to read this post wishing to purchase Service Packs for Vista as long download time saved and you can use them download are a problem or you reinstall your operating system.

    If you later reinstall OS and you install the drivers manually install the Service Packs right after OS reinstalled before installing any drivers. You can first install the drivers but it is better Service Packs first as sometimes when you install a Service Pack after the drivers, you can find some drivers do not work and you have to reinstall these drivers.

    For people using the original image, your drivers are already installed then install Service Packs just after the factory restore before installing applications or devices or download Windows updates.

    Service Packs using immediately also save hundreds of download of the updates of Windows first of all that all updates to the top until the release of Service Packs are included.

  • How to transfer all files and programs from old HDD to new HDD?

    I would like to change the HARD drive of my laptop to one with more capacity. Is there a way for me to transfer all my current content to the new the old HARD drive without having to re - install all programs / operating system?

    Well, the simplest would be a backup image.

    I m using a 3rd party software. It s a Norton Ghost.
    This tool allows you to create an image of you HARD drive or simple partitions.
    I created an image file and stored on the external HARD drive.

    Then, I installed the new OS on the laptop, installed Norton Ghost and used the external HARD disk image file to restore all the files and programs again.

    But you don't need t to use the ghost there are many other applications to create an own google simple image

  • Cannot open some files and programs

    I have windows 7, some of my files and programs will be open (ie. Recycle Bin, computer, libraries). They are sent to the windows Explorer file in the task bar. I can see what is in the file when I put the cursor over them, but cannot open them. I can close the files once in windows Explorer and when I reduce they seem to come on the screen.  It was not always thus and I don't know how to fix this or why it's happening.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    It may be an idea to run the Windows system restore.  If you have Norton Internet Security installed, you should disable Norton Tamper Protection as described in step 2, on the link below.

    http://us.Norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web & docURL = 20091112171719EN & LN = en_US

    Once you are done, turn off the PC.  Windows system restore is usaully better run in Mode without failure.  Tap away at f8 that you start the PC to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER.  When it has loaded, on the Start Menu, click principally made programs, accessories, click System Tools and run the system restore.  Choose a restore point at least 3 days prior (or a previous version if available) the problem and then proceed to the restoration.  When you are finished, Windows will restart normally.

    Kind regards

  • I lost all the photos, files and programs, can someone help me please?

    I did a system restore (I think) and lost all the photos, files and programs.  Can someone tell me please how do I get back them?

    Lillie

    Looks like your user profile has been corrupted in some way and XP connected to a new profile.  This means that when you connect, you see one of your stuff and can be also lack all the other programs you may have installed previously.

    Note that the system restore do not know or care about the personal files on your system.

    Unless there's a disaster or instead of a system restore you done a system recovery files would be still on your system somewhere - you just find them... and when you find them, you can correct what happened.  If you have made a recovery of the system instead of a system restore, then all is lost and you need to recover from a backup.

    Have you performed a search of Windows to see if you can find some of these photos and files?    For example, you could search for something like "Resume.doc" or a file name that you remember exactly to see if it is anywhere on your system and where it is.

    Why don't you get in Windows Explorer and (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive), navigate to this folder:

    C:\Documents and Settings

    Below, you will see that each user on your system has their own folder for their personal belongings.  You will see also some folders listed user that you do not recognize, but that's normal.

    Under the folder of each user, there is another folder, as "Documents of Jose" and under this 'Jose music' and «De Jose Pictures»  Dig a little and check them all to see if you can find your missing stuff.

    Just take a look in the Control Panel, add/remove programs to see if "missing" programs are still installed, but all not available when you are logged in (you don't have to 'do' something - just look at).

    Assuming that you can find your missing stuff, determine where we (which will make feel you better knowing that it is not really gone), then report back and someone can help you straighten things.

  • Upgrade to Windows 10 erase all files and programs now on my computer, or make it unusable?

    Upgrade to Windows 10 erase all files and programs now on my computer, or make it unusable?  I have since I have not answered on this site, I headed to the computer store, 'Best Buy', to see if their staff or their staff of in-house computer repair people called "Geek Squad" could answer this question.  NONE OF THEM COULD.

    Well up to now, I had a lot of problems with windows 10. Some programs do not work. My wireless guard is disconnected. And when I restored it windows 8.1, my browsers did not work. It's just on a single computer. Others have not yet verified, I'm very satisfied with the situation. He also removed my antivirus program.

    The biggest problem is with the software I paid for and that you do not have a disk to reinstall. WHY - because today ' today, software publishers want you pay every month, and when things like that, go bad, there is no record of re - install the software. I spent hours trying to solve this problem, but until now I'm waiting for Microsoft's online live chat 194 minutes go.

    I would say that they should have ethics applied to developers of software for this kind of things don't happen. How unfair is that they release a product with a ton of bugs simply because developers are too lazy to correct the problems before its release. They must be charged a fine for lack of ethics in programming.

    So to answer your question - so far the files are still there, but has great difficulty with the programs works not as they did. In addition, if go back you to an earlier version of windows, it seems that they made it impossible for previous versions to work as before without having to reinstall all the software you have.

    I'd wait until they have corrected most of the bugs. I'm stuck, but you're not.

  • Can I create a theme or office that will also allow to save files and programs open?

    I use Win 7 64 bit

    I know how to create a theme in Windows that includes the background, sounds, mouse pointers, screen saver etc, - the usual theme settings. But I wonder if there is a way to create a framework of office personalized with your current open files and programs. I have set up my desktop for including Sony Vegas video editing and audio and video encoders-muxeurs and set-top boxes. I also created a specific model of open cases. Ultimately, what I want to do is just to save open files and programs for a parameter I could access with one click later and light up, (or a login name). Then he would automatically come to the office with all the relevant files and programs open. Is this possible in Windows 7?

    Some weird results

    Initially, I used your method of single line, since the first example you gave, to try to open programs. It would open a single program and then hang. If I closed this program it will open the next and hang.  If I closed it program would open the next and hang, etc. - it only opened one at a time.

    Then I used the cd "method of C:\Pathname and got the same results: open and hang, close, open and crash, close, etc..".

    Then in the first entry

    REM MKVExtractGUI2
    CD /d "C:\Program Files\MKVToolNix".

    I've added the /d and everything as it should - programs and files open. That's why I stuck as the final.

    Using your method to explore start/wait worked if I used it in the form of lots to open folders only - no program.

    Try it with the:

    : MKVExtractGUI2
    Start "C:\Program Files\MKVToolNix\MKVExtractGUI2.exe".

    method would open six control boxes that all had the directory where I started the batch of files of

    so:

    F:\My Documents\Desktop Vid settings of batch files

    With the help of your:

    Start the Explorer c:\users\shawn\desktop\1
    ping google.com/n 1

    method also worked if I used it in the form of lots to open folders only - no program.

    Try it with the:

    : MKVExtractGUI2
    Start "C:\Program Files\MKVToolNix\MKVExtractGUI2.exe".

    method would also six control boxes that all had the directory where I started the batch of files of
    Once again:

    F:\My Documents\Desktop Vid settings of batch files

    So, I used which is the only one that has worked to open everything - and in the order that I wanted:

    off @echo
    : files
    Start the Explorer "G:\Sony Vegas\Sony Veg Project Files"
    ping google.com/n 1
    Start the Explorer "F:\Torrents Completed"
    ping google.com/n 1
    Start the Explorer "E:\Projects hand"

    Start the Explorer "models E:\Projects.

  • What is the difference between the program files and Program Files

    original title: difference between program files and program files

    Hello.

    I have 2 files on my C:\ drive that both seem to contain program files: one is called "Programs" (French word) and other 'program (x 86) '.

    Some program files in two directories (like Windows Mail).

    What is the difference btw. them, and that one should choose to place new programs? Or is this duplication caused by my using the French for Vista version?

    If you are running a 64-bit version of Windows:
    Program files (86) your 32-bit programs and "Programs" should be your 64-bit programs. Most of the programs designed for the 32-bit version of Windows works on 64-bit Windows version. The notable exceptions are many antivirus programs and drivers.
