• Risks of IE settings: launch programs and dangerous files - enabled for Web Sites

  Hello

  Could someone share with me knowledge about security settings in Internet Explorer?

  The parameter name is:

  Launch programs and dangerous files

  I wonder what the risks are when this setting is "Enabled" for the Internet zone.

  Our client has suffered recently with security warnings when you open a local shortcut. Targets of shortcuts even to local building Windows applications such as Wordpad. And it does not matter where the shortcut is present, whether on office files or local like c:\temp

  The security warning is of type: publication could not be verified. Are you sure you want to run this software?

  The problem only started after the installation of Internet Explorer 11. Customers with the old version of IE does not suffer from this issue.

  We have confirmed two work solutions:

  1. launch programs and potentially dangerous files - enabled for the zone Internet

  2. Add the registry entry:

  [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Associations]

  «LowRiskFileTypes "=".avi;.» beats;. com;. cmd;. exe;. htm;. HTML;. lnk;. MPG;. MPEG;. MOV;. MP3;. MSI;. M3U;. rar;. Reg;. txt;. vbs;. WAV;. zip; »

  But we would need to know the security risks for the launch of programs and dangerous files - enabled for the Internet zone.

  Somehow, I'm not able to find a good article that describes this feature and risk.

  Or can you suggest an alternative? Could this be caused also by a patch?

  Thanks in advance

• How can I do a full system Back Up, including installed programs and their installation data?

  Hello

  My question is how can I backup the entire system including installed programs and their installation data.

  I want to say clearly, backup of data of a personal nature such as my documents or my music (except records of program/data sets) is not the case.

  I want just the backup of the system (including drivers, registry and other files releated) and installed programs.

• How to list the VMs and blue file associated by cluster

  I tried to figure out how to get the list of virtual machines on a particular cluster of ESX and their associated blue records.  I tried to change some of the scripts I found that all virtual machines and their files... but can't seem to get them to identify to a cluster.

  Someone has something that I could try?

  There are indeed a few scripts that give the railways blue folder for virtual machines.

  It is an adapted version of one of my scripts that does state on the virtual machines for a specific cluster.

  $report = @()
  $cluster = 
  
  Get-Cluster $cluster | Get-VM | Get-View | % {
  
       $current = Get-View $_.Parent
       $path = $_.Name
       do {
            $parent = $current
            if($parent.Name -ne "vm"){$path = $parent.Name + "\" + $path}
            $current = Get-View $current.Parent
       } while ($current.Parent -ne $null)
  
       $row = "" | select ClusterName, VMName, Path
       $row.ClusterName = $cluster
       $row.VMName = $_.Name
       $row.Path = $path
       $report += $row
  }
  
  $report
  

  If you want to see the list in the 'blue' folder_name order, you can change the last line

  $report | Sort-Object -Property Path

• problem running programs and .exe files

  computer has been corrupted (by clicking on kids')-tried malwarebytes' anti-malware scan, when I rebooted, nothing works.  I tried microsoft security, but could not access the program.  I tried the system restore, but that no longer works.  If I try to download a program, do not automatically work .exe files and my computer asks me what kind of program to run it - nothing done!  I am missing shortcuts, applications, and system files.  I can't go to the Help Center to try a new date of system restore because application helpctr.exe is not found.  Any help?

  It is likely that your .exe and other extensions have changed my virus/malware.

  There is a simple fix as long as you can open regedit from the start > run box.

  As long as you can then go (I hope I'm not breaking rules here - url not mine but very helpful)

  Download the .reg and .exe association fixes. Use ' file > import ' option in regedit for each of the downloaded files. This should solve your problems. Best regards, Dave.

• Add/Remove programs and exe files does not

  My Windows XP system has developed a strange (and annoying) issue that no longer allows me to double click on the shortcuts of programs or EXE files.  When I do, I give myself a menu asks me what program I want to use to open the file, as if I was trying to open a file with an extension that is not associated with.  I set up an Intuit program for the first time. Any ideas?

• How to organize the project and the files associated with the Premier Pro

  I tried to hold the input and output files to the Premier Pro (body) to optimize PC speed and keep different projects in separate folders.

  To optimize speed, I try to balance the I/O to the body on different drives. I'm editing on a dedicated PC i7 - 3930K, OS W7, 32 GB of RAM, with 2 SSD and 7200 4 discs arranged in 2 RAID 0.  A SSD (C drive) contains the files program, Documents, Photos and Audio.  The other 3 are used to store the video media.  The second SSD is used for the Cache and editing intermediate files. A RAID contains the video and audio Source, the other RAID files, export files.  I try to balance the input/output between readers.

  To organize files, I try to place each project with its related assets in a separate file.  In Production Premium CS6, default organization of the C:\Documents\Adobe\6.0 projects.  I'm confused because when I put Destination project in the project manager to another location, it always end up in the default location.  To change the location of the project, I find that it is initially allocated to the default, then I manually move it to another folder.  After you restart the body I open a project in the new folder.  Even though I have been editing for many years, I do not edit full time, so I need to refresh my knowledge for the fair distribution of the files such as the Scratch disks...

  To make life interesting, different programs spread differently.  Mocha, the project folder and the default output to the same location.  I found Mocha has a project and output destination allocation of menus that once I put them in different places always end up together.  I was advised to change the location of the moka project as I do with the body, but nothing has changed.  Speed and coordination PC file locations is a challenge.

  I have reviewed the training locations in the body.  Please direct me to the training to refresh my understanding on how correctly assets and distribution projects in the organization.  I also want to understand all the terms and possible menu assignments, if training is available.  A video presentation is preferred.

  The 'libraries', never use integrated in Windows. Those who are buried on the C drive in a rat hole of a tree of files to implement for backup and everything. Really, quite a stupid implemented well. And having the documents on your system drive is very well... doesn't really matter, those not need for speed of access. Put YOUR assets, such as pictures, images, graphics and stuff, in the folders that you create on the drives for them to the best "work" for you.

  So anything I have listed (quite well off of the page of this Tweaker) interferes, or interfaces with Microsoft stupidity wonderful intentions. One just go to the configuration of the places one wants to work as you want for better performance. It is STRONGLY recommended that in these various drives you set up folder trees that are easy to understand AND easy to use for the implementation of backup programs. The Tweaker has rather detailed suggestions tell for the settings of the cache for the Windows system files, which drive page size parameters to use. Those are the only things we change concerning the functioning of the system, and MS is only available for users to use. What readers and how much drive space you want to * system * using the cache? Your choice.

  PrPro has its own set of cache, database, project, and preview file default locations, so that the program won't work if nobody use it knows how to correctly set things upward. These default values are the folders system/users/blah/blah/blah/blah blah... not particularly easy to access for backup configurations, cleaning, that sort of thing, and not JUST because Adobe prefers you use those. In fact, they recommend that YOU set for the best working speed. The default values are all system-car and ensure the performance of the slug-bug.

  When you go to edit-> Preferences dialog box, you will find a number of these things assorted options for which you want to put them. The project settings dialog box is for each project, and it is where tell you him to put THAT prproj main project file & some other assets. It is generally recommended that you put each project in its own folder on a folder tree of files to the disc that you put your project files on.

  Note... all the different bits of the project files, database, cache and preview files have both read & write processes under constant operation. These things need quick access, usually put one shown previously one or two of them to a drive with SATAII internal best matches, or a 4/5 RAID 0/5 array disk.

  Images (media) and rendering (final exports) are mostly one-way moves. Images is primarily a read-only, and export operation is mainly a single write operation. So those who can live on slightly slower connections to the need to obtain. As to say the very fast 128 GB USB3.0 flash drive PNY I acquired in the user suggestions a couple. I tested it, and 1080 p images and exports can be handled by that without slowing down everything else... but ONLY one of these. Either images or exports, NOT both! Few people have found that say that an external SSD with images on a USB3.0 connection is usable in the things their system and speeds but spread across these disks in read/write to access tasks on several pipelines. Some have tried and found that their USB bus is also used for other internal disc or other connections, and so they had no gain speed or slow things down. Test... test.

• In "set your default programs" under Win7, file associations of Firefox are altered.

  "Set your default programs" in the control panel of Windows 7, Firefox appears in the list of "Programs" on the left. But its icon is that of Windows Media Player.

  After I click on the name of the program (Firefox) to see the details on the right, I noticed that Firefox icon becomes that of Windows Media Player, also. And "Mozilla Corporation" becomes "Microsoft Corporation".

  If I click on "Set this program as default", files of these types are opened by Windows Media Player, no Firefox:
  htm, html, shtml, xht, xhtml.

  So I must manually associate these file types Firefox to "associate a type of file or Protocol with a specific program.

  To resolve this problem, should what registry entries I change?

  You can try to uninstall and reinstall Firefox, perhaps as an administrator.

  Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

  Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

  • Firefox 24: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

  Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

  • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

  Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.
  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox

  Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

• My program and other files on my C drive & external drives seem to be "deleted", but the virus scans show that the real files are still there...

  I use Windows Vista and the antivirus software Kerpersky internet on my Dell laptop. A virus 'seems have wiped my desktop and programs files and the directory of my document files, and index on my C drive and my external drive which was attached when you save.' .. that is the index of the two drives is empty shows that no file already exist...

  Kerpesky worked at the time, but he could not stop the attack. However, Karpersky himself was apparently not affected, and when I run that s Karpersky it scanning readings missing files on the C drive and the external drive as being there but appears to any threat of threats...

  I managed to get my office back in a configuration much earlier using a Windows roll back feature that resets the list of programs and some very old directories and older files, but I can't see the previous desktop, nor my current "desktop", or a 'my document' content etc.

  When I jump into Excel and pick up the last file used, that has been saved on my desktop, it chose upward and able to be re-registered, but if I try to view a list of files via Excel or MS Word, none are found.  Another problem is that my backup disk has got so touched.  I am concerned to recover all my files and also not to overwrite anything on my C drive in the meantime. What are the best tools to solve this problem?

  Thank you

  Peter

  Problem has been fixed.  I had a breakthrough last night when I did a bit of research to specific directories and found that files and directories 'lost' were just 'hidden '. I used the Windows tools to display all the files and directories hidden in the C drive and HARD drive and were able to view each of them to solve my problem.

  Thank you very much

• Pass systgem of exploitation and the files associated with a second disc which will now be the C drive.

  My computer has a hard disk of 120 GB with 3 partitions: C, D, e. using Windows XP Pro.  The C; drive is running out of room and I don't want to repartition the disk.  I bought a 320 GB drive to use as a new drive.  What is the best way to move everything to the new drive, which will be at the same time as the old disk of the computer.  In the old days BACK I'd use copysys to ensure that the operating system has been installed correctly.  If I just copy with just the correct drive, this will bring on any system files or tracks so that I can make the new drive to my new C drive?  Thank you for your suggestions.

  No, you can't just copy the files. The new drive will come with a cloning utility (or you can get one on the disc mftr. site) to clone the old hard drive to the new. Cloning is an exact copy. If you don't want an exact copy because you don't want to partition the old drive in the same way, the image of your system partition instead, save the image to an external hard drive. I prefer Acronis True Image . Then, you can install your new hard drive, the boot with the Acronis rescue CD and apply the image as you did. TI can also make additional imagery that makes a recovery program very good backup or disaster. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
