• Problem with Windows Explorer and the recorded files

  When I save files from the internet and then open the folder with Windows Explorer in the backed up files, I find that WE consider not save them on my hard drive "change" more. I know it's strange, but I tend to retain files roughly in the order that I saved them, rather than by the name of the file or anything else. So now to manually change the files in a certain way, then save them to get them organized as I want. Of course, this can become very painful and long if I have a lot of files to organize this way. My question is: How can I get Windows to consider saving a file on my HDD as change? I use Firefox and updated recently, which may be the cause of the problem.

  Hi Flingle,

  Were you able to save and access files correctly before you update Firefox?

  You can create a new folder & try to download the file inside of Internet Explorer & check if the problem persists.

  Hope the helps of information. Please post back and we do know.

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
  It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• Is problem with Windows Explorer (not Internet Expl.) - possible to reinstall this software or update?

  I have several problems which, after some time, can be attributed to a problem with the Windows Explorer (not: Internet Explorer)

  Examples:

  -files are not finished (so that they remain in a queue forever) (this happens every time)

  -When I try to replace a file from one directory to another this process is at a standstill (occurring rarely)

  -When I shut down, I get a message that trying explore but unable to play the fine tune (sometimes)

  -in Word, I get printer messages not responded or other problems with opening files-Word (sometimes).

  Remarkable (?): boot in normal mode is always successful, even after the crash on shutdown.

  Question:

  -is it possible to reinstall this software or update?

  - or something is needed to get a solution?

  Hi Niels,

  1. When did you start to question?

  2 did you recent hardware or changes to the software of the system?

  Method 1:

  Step 1:

  You can check if the problem occurs in safe mode.

  Start your computer in safe mode

  Step 2:

  If you are not faced with the question in safe mode, then you can try to perform a clean boot and check if it helps.

  A clean boot to check if startup item or services to third-party application is causing this issue.

  You can read the following article to put the computer in a clean boot:

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  In addition, after you fix the problem, you can see step 7 above to restore your computer to a Normal startup mode.

  Method 2:

  If you are faced with the question in safe mode, you can run a Checkdisk to see if there are drive errors that can cause this problem.

  Check your hard drive for errors

  Note: When you run the disk check, there are chances of losing data if you can take a backup before starting the checkdisk.

• Problems with Windows Explorer and files?

  FYI, I'm running 7 64 x SP1, I have Avast! antivirus and malwarebytes and CCleaner and aswMBR rootkit scanner.

  Yesterday, I left my computer while doing research for a bite to eat and I came back and this error box titled "CScript.exe" Application error "and in the box, he said that the program could not start and press OK to close the program. It was the first time I saw this error, so I clicked on OK and didn't think much, until I went to research and decided to run a full on Avast scan and no viruses were found, so I decided to use malwarebytes to check and when I went to open it (it is in my Start menu... don't use it very often) he wouldn't run and all of a sudden I had this error as Explorer windows stopped working, he was checking for a solution, and it restarted itself. I thought it was weird, so I tried to run windows Defender got the exact same result - Defender would not and open windows Explorer stopped and restarted itself. I'm so gone to CCleaner (which surprisingly open upwards) to see if my registry was somehow screwed up, analyses to find errors and there was none. I checked the programs installed through CCleaner to see if maybe there is a program that appears as if by magic, and it was not all. So I ran my rootkit scanner and it wasn't rootkits but I saved the log file on my desktop and it does not open. Does not open the Task Manager, command prompt does not open, the center of the action does not open... nothing beneficial opens. While doing all this, the error "CScript.exe" jumped to the top about 3 or 4 times just randomly. I don't know what happened to the drive that is used to repair/reinstall windows, so it's a little out of the question. I considered to start Windows in safe mode and backup on a restore point, but have not yet tried. Any suggestions?

  Good, well * seems * after booting in normal mode, the problem is resolved. exp works normally now, but let's see whether it is temporary or not.

  Explorer Windows is funky, I have several questions that are difficult to explain. He has just started acting funny last week, it's almost as if he works on his own! Help, please!

  Hello Donald,.

  Explorer is an integral part of Windows, and you cannot uninstall it. To answer your concerns however, I wonder if you have a malware or virus infection? To check these I recommend the following:

  Malwarebytes' anti-malware: http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html.

  SuperAntiSpyware: http://download.cnet.com/SuperAntiSpyware-Free-Edition/3000-8022_4-10523889.html.

  Most run name you use as an antivirus (I use Avast: http://download.cnet.com/Avast-Free-Antivirus/3000-2239_4-10019223.html).

  Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

• Problem with the Explorer Windows XP (Home) to explore a network place

  I can set up a network and get a path to the root with no problems. I can also directly access the http address via my web browser (Chrome).

  When I navigate to the network place in Windows Explorer and try to explore the path I get the error message "the current operation cannot be completed because an unexpected error has occurred" the same process on my laptop XP pro works fine.

  I think that it all depends on WebDAV.  Any ideas on how to fix it please? I've been through Art 287402 without success.
  The main difference between the two XP machines (outside the Home and Pro) is that the Pro machine still has installed Office97 Pro while the Home machine has Office 2010 Pro installed. Both machines have Explorer 8 is installed even though Chrome is used both as a browser.
  Thank you

  Glad to know that you have addressed the issue.

• Problems with Windows 7: Internet Explorer and black screen

  I recently took my old Acer Aspire laptop 8375 from the dead. If I remember correctly, it is from 2008 and has Windows 7 installed on it. When I try to start my PC, everything's fine until it connects to the account. Suddenly, a black screen will appear with a message saying: Internet Explorer has stopped working. I have tried different methods: looking for online solutions (did not work, window closed without results), open the Task Manager and IE (did not work), trying to open other applications didd work tho, but my google chrome didn, t work as well running. I forgot to mention, I could use my cursor on the black screen. Could someone help?

  Hello Kent,

• Problem with Windows Installer (I think)

  Hey I just got a new 'game' PC with all the good things like i7 processor nvidia GTS 250 graphics card. So I guessed I would setup games. Games were installed very well the problems started when I tried to run SteamInstall.msi he looks ready to install for 1 second and then close and nothing happen. Even try to do once again nothing. So I gave up with it.

  Then I installed cod4, codwaw and download for both patches. When I try to install the patches it starts normal and after extractinng saying "" ".msi or msu or something it get stuck on the preparation for installation on both cod4, codwaw games and I think about others too... '".

  So I guess that's my Windows Installer problem... ? Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 (problems on SP1 also)

  Yoris,
  I think that if you had a problem with Windows Installer, then you would have also had a problem installing the games themselves.  If after installing just the game, you are able to start the game, then you will need to determine if you really need the patches you install.  If they fix game issues and do not add any content, then you may not even need of patches.  If it turns out that you do not have the patches and they are self extracting\installing files and then save them to your desktop and then right click and select run as administrator and see if that helps.  You can also check with Activision support , because this can be a problem they know.

• Big problem with Windows XP, IE8

  I have a big problem with windows xp. Many things do not work as they had passed him. For example the personal setting are not recalled from session to session. IE 8 does not funtion properly (icons on the desktop are re-arraged, toolbars cannot be deleted or I'm unable to load pages from the internet). Programs do not work, the files will not open. When I look at my hard C disk folders and files are hidden.

  Recently, IE has been upgraded to IE8 and I installed Norton 360 but I don't mean that they caused the problem. However, whenever the Norton scan executes a "error 8 506 421" stands up and says me that I have to uninstall and re install Norton.» But I lost the ADMIN privileges so I am not able to uninstall or go back to a restore point.

  I can't go in safe mode. Pressing F8 takes me to the quick screen C not the windows safe mode screen. I can't go in safe BOOT mode. INI or the other.

  If I switch to another user, everything seems fine but I don't have ADMIN privileges with this user to be able to make changes.

  Is this a problem with norton? IE8? A virus?

  Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance,

  Lost without a computer

  It sounds like you have a corrupted for your user to administrator user profile.

  You may be able to recover using System Restore to restore to a point in time before your problem.  Based on the F8 key, you bring in a command prompt window, try to start restoring the system to the command prompt by using the following procedure:

  "How to start the System Restore tool by using the option of safe mode with prompt theCommand in Windows XP"

  <>https://support.Microsoft.com/kb/304449/en-us >

  If this does not work, you can still be able to recover by performing a check disk to your command prompt window operation (after that you press the F8 key).  Enter the following command:

  CHKDSK c: /R

  If you are in the Recovery Console, it can simply begin, or you may need to restart before it will start.  Corrupt profiles are most often caused by the Corruption of system files, so a chkdsk operation should be performed little matter how you end up recovery.  Note that this can take a few hours to run.

• The problem with Windows update - automatic updates service won't start not (error 126)

  original title: the problem with Windows update

  Had a problem with "Generic host process for Win32 has encountered a problem and needs to close."  Follow-up of the instructions on this link:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/931852

  Seems to have cleared the error message.  So far so good.

  However, now a Windows Update does not work.  Security Center Windows were told to go to control panel > system and use the Automatic Updates tab.  But, if I go to control panel > system, the Automatic Updates tab does not appear.

  I also went to the control panel > Services.  Tried to start the automatic updates service.  Received this error message: could not start the service automatic updates on Local computer.  Error 126: The specified module could not be found

  I already followed several instructions on this subject:

  In the thread above, I was following the post on 30 August.  According to Option A, I completed step 5 for the uninstallation of McAfee Security.  At this time, my network card has stopped working.  On the recommendation of the officer, I posted to the Malwarebytes forum.  The officer determined Malwarebytes that I don't have a malicious software.  I ended up posting on forum McAfee to get my network card works again.  Then I reinstalled McAfee and start to run Windows Update.

  I started with Option A, step 8 to reset Internet Explorer using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737.  The difficulty it has worked very well.

  Then Option A, step 9 says reset Windows Update using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058.  When I ran the difficulty in default or aggressive mode, I got an error message saying: he cannot start wuauserv.  The message asks me to verify that the user has privileges to take this step.  Well, I checked through user accounts who am the only one user set up on this PC and I have administrator privileges.  Help me please run this difficulty or recommend another way to get Windows Update works again.

  [1]... looks like you are saying that my system is so wet that a clean install is the (only?) way to go.

  [2] if I do a clean install, not only what I need to reinstall Windows and all my applications, I also have to reinstall the drivers... Etc. ?

  [3] I think I have the disks supplied with the PC system. Is it better to use than to use the recovery partitiion?

  [4A]... is there a possibility that some of [my data are] infected?

  [4] preventing me from simply infect the whole PC again?

  A1. Yes, and it was my recommendation in August, too.

  A2. Yes.

  A3. Only not really well using the restore Partition hidden to make the "destructive recovery" will include all drivers, etc., that have been installed at the factory.

  A4a. Yes, a real possibility.

  A4b. You run at least three 3 tests on the backup data before restoring one (1) with your installed & updated up-to-date anti-virus application (for example, Microsoft Security Essentials) and two 2 with good reputation, free online scans (e.g., ESET;) Bit Defender; Kaspersky; HouseCall; (F - Secure).

  If you have saved your data on CD/DVD, the disc scanner. If you have backed up your data to a flash drive, SD card, or another external drive AND KB971029 is installed, analyze the drive.
