• client for Microsoft Network

  June 26, 2012

  FROM: jgbcorr

  Operating system: Vista Edition Home Premium Service Pack 2

  I tried to reinstall the Client of Microsoft Networks on the PC several times. I had deleted to reinstall because I couldn't connect to the Internet once I have gone through the long process to remove ITunes and its related programs and then reinstalled ITunes from scratch.

  Whenever the Client Setup will fail. I get the following network connections error message:

  "Could not add the requested feature. The error is: the remote procedure call failed. »

  The PC does not have a Windows Installer disk.

  Is there somehow download the Client for Microsoft networks (to another PC) and then copy and install it on the PC with the problem?

  Is there a way to repair the Windows installation to see if it can solve the problem?

  If possible, I prefer not to do a reinstall full Vista and SP 1 and 2. It takes time as well as to reinstall all the programs on the PC.

  Thanks for the ideas.

  jgbcorr

  Thank you.

  When I tried the fix you sent, I got CPP

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\.

  It seems that the uninstall deleted Itunes the other inputs of register, also.

  Example: I tried to run another application on the PC and received the following message

  "Could not initialize Windows sockets."

  I reinstalled the software and tried to run again. I got the same message, "Could not initialize Windows sockets."

  I read that I could buy and download the Vista startup repair, burn it to a disk and repair installation of Vista PC. This repair restores the registry to the original installation settings?

  If not, what other options can I short of a complete reinstallation of Vista and then most of the programs on the PC?

  Thank you

• I got a call saying they call Microsoft. 253-802-0309.

  Well, just as the title says, today 04/05/2013 at 09:40 (UTC-8) West of USA.

  I got a call saying they call Microsoft. (YES, YES... I know that microsoft never, never make such calls). They said that my computer anti-virus has expired, and I need to renew. They asked me if I have my computer close to their Web site. (I guess that means, a microsoft Web site or a Web site of the antivirus).

  Well, after I told him (as a man) did you know that microsoft never call their customers as their own antivirus microsoft you don't need to buy another because is free? So guy stop talking... after that I have no response from her... hhehehe lol

  Well, here's the phone number 253-802-0309

  Is absolutely a scam, and I'm just here to report them. You guys need to start an investigation, because you do not know how many people fall each day in such scams. (not my case = P).

  "Eduardo Samayoa" - congratulations, you did the right thing and as you say, it's a scam.

  MS are aware and deliver advice http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/security/online-privacy/msname.aspx (for example).

  I'm not sure its easy to stop it well.

• How to check a company called Microsoft Support?

  I keep getting phone calls from a company called support essential Microsoft technical support request. I paid for support over two years with a company, but I don't think it's the same company. In any case, the calling company says that they are part of Microsoft and they can update my security settings to keep hackers out of my network and keep someone who they say hacked into my network and sending offensive spam. It's for real? I live in the country and have no neighbors. How a person to hack my network? I have literally no neighbors within 2 miles.

  Its a variant of this type of scam.

• Call Microsoft scam?

  I want to report a scary encounter with the Technical Support of Microsoft Office. They wanted $400.00 to install their toolbar on my computer and wouldn't answer my questions of office until I supported their business. It's an official call to a microsoft call center. They had me on the phone two hours, wanting to show me a demo on how silverlight cookies and registry entries were virus and that I needed and the experience of their "golden opportunity." There was so much wrong with what they were saying, I couldn't believe it. And they were aggressive in trying to get my credit card in their third-party site, which came a warning in Internet Explorer, saying that the site has "dangerous content". They then left 5 voicemails on my phone, who were polite but really weird. I have no idea what they were talking about, but I have a screen shot when they took control of my PC and wanted my credit card. I don't give them nothing. I do not know how to attach the screenshot here, there is no option for it.

  I feel fear they will continue to contact me. I gave them a false address because they insisted that they ask him to help me. They said they have four thousand employees to make sure they get my information.
  Later, I again called Microsoft Office support and was waiting for 30 minutes before the man clung to me. He had no questions, he simply put me on hold and half an hour later hung up.
  Help, please.

  Hello

  Of course, iYogi is not Microsoft and of course the 855-350-6401 is not Microsoft or
  even several.

  WebOfTrust - iYogi.com - very bad reputation

  Certainly consider reinstall Windows and all your programs.

  I hope this helps.

• Client for Microsoft networks

  Is it safe to uncheck (but without any intention to uninstall) Client for Microsoft Networks and printer and the file sharing for Microsoft Networks in the LAN properties? All services affected negatively, as his dismissal of the Services or disabled accordingly? Why do I need in the first place? I'm not on a network, my computer is autonomous. I'd appreciate advice.

  Yes, go ahead and uncheck the.  See https://www.grc.com/su-fixit.htm

• What are the 'elements' in a network connection settings (for example, 'client for microsoft networks') and which should I check?

  the termonology throws me, so keep it simple please. BUT I'm just checking my NETWORK CONNECTIONS and when I discover the properties of parameters / the window will appear which indicates the items that you can check or uncheck.

  'the clients for microsoft networks '.

  "file and printer sharing for microsoft networks".

  "QoS Packet Scheduler"

  "internet protocol (tcp/ipi).

  I can't seem to find the info on what they are and why I need one any of them checked, info by simple description is. I am just a computer and I mainly use a cable (ethernet?) a domestic device (modem?) that gives me access to the internet. So all the jargon on the networks and sharing are confusing. I unchecked 'file and printer sharing for microsoft networks' because it is based on the brief description I guess it's for some sort of office network (or other) computers? Finally, everything seems to work with that uncontrolled. I also disabled everything and I would not be able to connect to the internet, so I conclude at least some of them are essential for the connection to the internet anyway.

  A link would be well as long is it centered on my query mentioned and SINGLE [!]. Thank you.

  PS my interest is safety! I don't want to open doors that do not need to be open.

  question side: why I can't copy this? would it because I have disabled 'file and printer sharing... ". » ? I can copy the text elsewhere although [?].

  I've never paid much attention to the QoS, but as far as I KNOW, there isn't any kind of security risk.

  There is a lot of information and misinformation about the QoS on the Internet connections, and I'm not an expert on this subject.

  From what I understand, if you have a single computer connected to the Internet you won't probably no difference if this box is checked or not.

  Fake phone calls to technical support

  You did the right thing.

  Calls unrequested telephone of this nature are almost always a common scam. Do not let them give any info, do not give access to your PC, not give them all the money and do not go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment.

  Please see:

  http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/security/online-privacy/msname.aspx .

  Microsoft issues never not solicited for phone calls of support or security.

  These types of callers can use completely fictitious names or bogusly claim to be of real companies other than Microsoft as well.

• How do contact you Microsoft directly?

  How can you contact Microsoft DIRECTLY. I just bought a computer and told me almost everywhere and when I try to do almost anything that I do not have access, or I do not have permission even under the administrator account.

  There is a kind of lock on the OS and Microsoft has to tell me how to unlock the operating system so that I can do what I want, be it good or bad, it's my computer and I don't think that they have the right to tell me I don't have permission or access!

  Yes, I recorded the OS and activated the user administrator account, but still a lot of no access or authorization, who do think they tell me that? This is my computer not them! If I want to screw it up that my choice not theirs!

  So, how contact them directly for this problem?

  If you have paid for Windows directly support is available.  However, if
  the copy of Windows came with the computer, and then contact the one who sold it to
  to you for support, Microsoft does not provide free assistance in this
  situation.

  To explore the options that are available to your specific situation, both free
  and paid, go to http://support.microsoft.com/ph/14019

  Otherwise if you post more on what you're trying to do and what
  occurs when you try, you'll probably find someone here who

• Half of the Windows product key is very difficult to read. Can I call Microsoft to change my product for free key

  One of the computer in our office could not start. After all troubleshooting - I ended up doing the reinstallation of the OS - but the thumbnail of my product key at the bottom of the laptop is so blurry. Can I call Microsoft and get the free product key exchange?

  No, they will not offer it. How can they prove that you are entitled to it?

  Recovery plant, using the partition HD or the manufacturer disks you generated when you 1st got the laptop do not require a key, because it's built. Some manufacturers may provide this disk set at a cost.

  Very rarely the manufacturers will be keeping a record of the key that they provided with the laptop and that provide a proof of purchase.
