removal of alleged registry files corrupt

Hey yall hows it going?

I'm running a 64 bit vista Home premium computer laptop sony vaio. and suddenly, I can't print to my network printer. We recently had a nasty virus AV on the desktop (to which the printer is connected) but malwarebytes got rid of it for me. now my two computers laptops cant print via our wireless connection. (they could before the virus) I ran a few free diagnostic software (on my computer vista laptop) who told me I had a couple of registry keys corrupt / & a file corrupted. more precisely

C:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3<--the corrupt="">

&

"HKEY_local machine\system\currentcontrolset\control\print\monitors\pcl hp2314v2.<--corrupt registry="">

&

"HKEY_local machine\system\currentcontrolset\control\print\monitors\wsd port.<--2nd corrupt="" registry="">

My question is, I can delete these registry without causing any damage? normally I don't mess with registry files but I tried everything I can think of.

already, I've tried:

1. check all cable connections for the desktop, rebooted printer and all machines, including printers, restarted router (cisco)

2 restart the spooler (all machines) service

3. restarted the spooler RPC service depends on (all machines)

4. uninstalled the printer software and reinstalled (vista machine)

5. download & install usb & wifi & network updates to Adapter Sony (the manufacturer of my vista machine)

6 made phone calls to both norton & hp (I thought that norton could help since they are the ones who let the virus, called hp since it is their two companies told to call another printer.)

7 microsoft has sent (last don't use - no response yet)

any ideas?

If you need a DVD of Vista Micropsoft, you will need to borrow one, I already advised you to do.

  • Windows XP SP3, corrupted registry. Corrupt / missing windows system32\config\system - restore via Recovery Console cannot copy files of origin of the system32 folder. Please help.

    When my husband's computer was incorrectly stop we met the ' Windows XP didn't start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM "error message. I understand that the registry is written on the judgment and that it is not rare that the registry damaged during the power failure or abnormal stop. Checking the bandages for details on how to proceed, and begin the process of recovery appearing in theArticle ID: 307545 of http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307545/en-us below:

    «First part in the first part, you start the Recovery Console, create a temporary folder, back up the existing registry files to a new location, delete the registry from their existing location files and then copy the registry files in the repair folder to the folder System32\Config.» When you have completed this procedure, a registry is created that you can use to start Windows XP. This registry was created and saved during the initial setup of Windows XP. Therefore, any changes and settings that took place after Setup has finished are lost.

    The full, first part, follow these steps:

    1. Insert the diskette of starting Windows XP in the floppy drive, or insert the Windows XP CD into the CD-ROM drive and restart the computer.
      Click to select all of the options required to start the computer from the CD-ROM drive if you are prompted to do so.
    2. When the "Welcome" screen appears, press R to start the Recovery Console.
    3. If you have a dual-boot or multiboot, select the installation that you want to access from the Recovery Console.
    4. When you are prompted to do so, type the administrator password. If the administrator password is blank, just press ENTER.
    5. At the Recovery Console prompt, type the following lines, pressing ENTER after you type each line:
      MD tmp
      copy c:\windows\system32\config\system c:\windows\tmp\system.bak
      copy c:\windows\system32\config\software c:\windows\tmp\software.bak
      Copy c:\windows\system32\config\sam c:\windows\tmp\sam.bak
      copy c:\windows\system32\config\security c:\windows\tmp\security.bak
      Copy c:\windows\system32\config\default c:\windows\tmp\default.bak.

    There was no administrator password prompt, but the console began without incident. I was unable to copy these files to a folder. (Yes, I checked my spelling and made certain that the commands, parameters and syntax are accurate.) I created another directory and tested the console by copying the files to repair to the secondary directory. These copied without any errors. I was able to discern that there are no problems with the console itself.  At this point, I'm not sure how to proceed.  There is data that has not yet been backed up and must be recovered where it is suggested to do a new/factory install. Therefore, I need to know if there is another way to proceed to the recovery or if I do a fresh install. In addition, any suggestions on its disk data recovery, if the new installation is the only way to move forward, also would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Just to be clear, when you have tried, for example, to run this command:

    copy c:\windows\system32\config\system c:\windows\tmp\system.bak

    You have an error message (please report it to full) or maybe nothing happened.

    But you did another directory (say 'c:\windows\otherdir') managed by running the following command:

    Copy c:\windows\repair\system c:\windows\otherdir\system

    If this is the situation in which you are in, you are essentially impossible to create a backup copy of the current registry damaged.  This is not the end of the world, because as you can see by reading the full article, you never use these files master anyway.  This step is just included "on the side of caution" so that you can restore the original registry files, corrupted, if for some reason you wanted to.

    Because you cannot start the system anyway, you might as well begin the process described in the article without creating these master files.

    You can either make the step remove first:

    delete c:\windows\system32\config\system

    or just try to copy the files in the directory of repair on the files in the \system32\config directory and answer 'Yes' when asked if you want to replace the existing file.

    Note that the success of this procedure assumes that you run the system restore.  Otherwise, you'll find yourself with the registry as there was when Windows installation - which certainly won't be compatible with the State of your machine today.

    Essentially, what you are doing are the following:

    1. While in the Recovery Console, restore the registry to its state when you first installed Windows.  This allows you to start Windows - but do not try to use any application program.

    2. in Windows, copy of the registry that is saved in a recent restore Point to a location that are accessible by the Recovery Console - but not by using the restore application from the system itself, because with the 'original' registry, System Restore is not aware of these restore points.

    3. While in the Recovery Console, restore the registry using the files you made available at step 2.

    I don't really know what's the point of the stage of section 4, unless it is to use system restore to restore to a different restore point.

    If you can't make things work by following the steps above, or if there is no recent restore points to use in step 2, then you are correct: you must backup your data, do a clean reinstall of Windows, then reinstall your applications with original media and restore your data from backup.

    If you are able to do step 1 and start Windows with its original register, you should be able to use the native Windows tools to backup your data.  I would not use NTBackup, but rather just copy (do not use the 'move' command) data on an external hard drive.  Alternately, you could boot from a live CD of Linux (for example, Knoppix) to access your drive and copy the data.  Or if you have a bootable CD from a like Acronis Disk Imaging application, you can use it.  If you would like more information in this sense, after return.

  • Help! A registry cleaner/duplicate file remover program deleted my file extensions!

    Help, please! A solvent cleaner/duplicate file registry program removed nearly all my file extensions, and I can't open any files excet a .pdf file. Several weeks ago, I went online looking for ways to increase my memory on my Windows XP Professional. I had no business playing with this stuff. I'm not tech savy. For some reason, I thought I knew what I was doing. I downloaded several different free programs, which were supposed to increase the memory on my hard drive. I don't know what program was the culprit, but she deleted my file extensions. Is there a free program that fixes / replaces all the typical file extensions? Please, please advise.

    Use system restore to return to a time before your error - this should restore the registry to its previous state and resolve the problem.

    Since the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    If you need help interpreting your logs in Event Viewer, follow these steps:

    Here is a method to display specific information about individual events.

    To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.

    A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

    %SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc

    Click OK to launch the event viewer.

    The most interesting newspapers are usually the system and Application logs.

    Some newspapers such as security and Internet Explorer may be completely empty or have just a few items.  The default settings for XP wants do not connect all this activity, unless you need to solve a problem in these areas.  If you enable logging for them the papers fill up quickly and could adversely affect the performance of your system with all the extras (often unnecessary) activity.

    If you have Microsoft Office installed, it has its own newspapers, and they can be empty or occasional boring activity very little or, if there is no problem with your desktop applications.  It's normal.

    Not every event is a problem, some are informational messages that things work very well, and some are warnings.

    However, no event should defy reasonable explanation.

    Each event is sorted by Date and time.  Errors will be red Xs, warnings will have yellow! s.
    Informational messages have white is.  Not every error or warning event means that there is a serious question.

    Some are excusable at boot time when Windows starts.  Try to find only the events to the date and time around your problem.

    If you double-click on an event, it will open a window of properties with more information.  On the right are black up and down arrow keys to scroll through the open events. The third button that looks like two overlapping pages is used to copy the details of the event in your Windows Clipboard.

    When you find an interesting event that occurred at the time of your question, click on the third button at the top and arrows to copy the details and then you can paste the details (right click, paste or CTRL-V) the text in detail here for analysis.  Remove all personal information from your information after you paste If you are forced to do so.

    If you paste an event, it will look something like this annoying system startup event:

    Event type: Information
    Event source: Service Control Manager
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 7035

    Time: 17:54:18
    User: Jose

    Description:
    The Remote Access Connection Manager service was sent successfully a starting control.

    To get a fresh start on any log of the event viewer, you can choose to clear the log (the log backup is available), and then reproduce your problem, then just look at the events around your show and troubleshoot events that are happening when you have your question.

    If you want to, you can also do another type of bootable CD, and usually, you will be able to simply copy your important files on a USB key, and then on another system.

    Here's an idea:

    Do you have a Hiren BootCD you can download here:

    http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download.html

    On the left, click on download, scroll down, choose the most recent version the download link is a little hard to see and they sometimes change the location of the download link, then you might have to look around her.  Today, it is at the bottom of the page, above the drop for older versions and looks like this:

    Hirens.BootCD.13.0.zip

    Beware of the other links on the page to other types of downloads for other types of CD - be sure that eventually you will download the latest version which is now a file called:

    Hirens.BootCD.13.0.zip

    The ZIP file is large, so the download will take probably some time to complete.  Then unzip the download to extract the Hirens.BootCD.ISO file that will be used to create your new bootable CD.

    Create a bootable CD. ISO file is not the same as simply copying the. File ISO onto a blank CD.  You must use software that includes how to burn a. ISO to a CD to create a bootable CD.

    File ZIP the Hiren is the file BurnToCD.cmd that you can double-click to launch it.  The BurnToCD.cmd will use the file BurnCDCC.exe to burn the. ISO file onto a blank CD using your existing CD burner.  You can also use your own burning software as long as your software is able to create a bootable CD. ISO file.  More modern burning programs can create a bootable CD. ISO image.  Create a CD from an ISO image bootable is not the same as just the file on a CD burning.

    If you need a simple and CD burning, this is a free software popular software:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your new bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.

    These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When starting on the Hiren's CD, you will see a menu of options.  Choose Mini XP.  It will appear while Windows is loading and you will be presented with a desktop computer that has the look and feel of the interface of Windows Explorer, you are already accustomed to using.

    Using the Mini XP, you can access Internet, maneuvering around your system, search for files, copy files, replace the files and run the scans for malware, edit the text files (like the c:\boot.ini) etc.

    There are dozens of free and useful tools included in the CD that can be used to repair your system or copy your important personal files on another device (like a USB device or an external drive) in the case where you just give up and decide to reinstall your XP (I hope that you will not make this decision).

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

    I decided to implement the points for a new puppy instead of a pony!

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  • PC became slower after execution of 'Registry Easy' to remove unwanted registry files.

    I have windows 7. recently, I downloaded "Registry easy" to remove unwanted registry files to make my pc faster. registry cleaning has been a success, but I followed with "junk cleaner" functionality of this software. Now this function is supposed to be just to clean the "undesirable." After cleaning, most of the files are format .tmp. now I feel that my pc has become slower, I feel some files (perhaps .tmp) deleted wer of the Windows folder despite my de-selection of Windows files to ensure that they are not considered as spam before you run "clean of junk. also, I currently have a low disk space. RAM, etc work fine. so slows PC due to insufficient disk space or this cleaning? I will be grateful for your help.

    These registry cleaners are snake oil.  They do little or no good and can cause serious problems.  Regarding unwanted cleaners, there is a good one built into Windows 7, and we know it's safe.  If you click on start-> computer, then click on the C: drive and click Properties, you can then click the disk cleanup button and it will clean the junk files.

    Good luck.

  • computer to rebboot for xp professional when get blue screen saying c0000218 Registry file failure.

    Restart the computer for xp professional when get bluescreen c0000218 Registry file failure

    The reason why I asked and have these specific examples of the error was:

    There was an older version of Norton (and now unsupported by Norton) who, after receiving an update, when the system has restarted, and Norton, loaded, it corrupted the system of files a bit (NTFS) so next time you have restarted, you will get this error.

    Run chkdsk /r from the Recovery Console XP fix it until the next reboot when new Norton loaded and it could corrupt the NTFS still once, then you would only get one go and should run chkdsk /r every reboot.  Allegedly, the system has worked fine - until the next reboot.

    If you run chkdsk /r and then restarted in Mode safe (so that Norton would not handle mode without failure), you can start and restart in Mode safe throughout the day without problem, but as soon as you started in Regular mode and Norton loading again, the system failed again.

    Uninstalling Norton and get their latest version fixed things upward.

    Any interruption of the power supply?  NTFS may result in corruption too that chkdsk/r will usually clear up.

    You wouldn't be able to apply the KB307545 without being able to start or something.  If MS Answers forums would prompt some system information when a new question is asked (as you have a genuine XP bootable installation CD), maybe one day we would not have this kind of answers that won't be of great use if you cannot start.

    Here you go:

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and don't forget (no support for XP not necessary).

    This is not the same as recovery disks that may have come to a store to purchase the system.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    xp_rec_con. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD (do not install UniBlue or the Ask Toolbar - never!):

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

    I think my son has pulled my laptop on the couch on the floor, he also pushed a lot of buttons. The computer was frozen and when restarted, it could not start and went to repair module. It is said, "the registry is corrupted. What can I do about it? and how can I get my data? I don't want to lose my data!

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    See you soon.

  • TextEdit files corrupt

    New Mac Pro cylinder, Yosemite. When I open edit text and start typing, very often what I get on screen is a string of dollar signs. If I open an existing file, which may include the formatting - font sizes, colors, pasted in pictures - he often opens as single row after row of dollar signs. Or older paragraphs may be dollar signs, most recent may appear as in the format. Or vice versa. If I command-shift-T to remove the formatting, plain text is all there without foreign characters.

    If I open a file corrupted on my old Mac Pro Tour (OSX 10.7 I think) the file is fine.

    Someone at - it see something like this before? I use Linotype Font Explorer X on both machines without any problem, do not know if who is involved? But in general all who help the police by default TextEdit chooses.

    Is there a way to clean-install TextEdit only? I liked TE years to keep project notes and record things like revenue, the procedures of the darkroom, things of type Notepad. Never had a single problem this machine.

    Is there a way to clean-install TextEdit only?

    N °

    Go to the Applications folder > fonts Book.app

    FontBook > file >restore to the Unicode Standard


    There maybe something similar to Linotype do explore X if it is the substitution of your police Book.app


    There also may be an updated version of your Linotype Font Explorer X

  • Dell Inspiron 6000 systemroot failure - STOP: C00000218 {registry file failure}

    Hello

    I met the 'blue screen of death' with the message "STOP: C00000218 {registry file failure} the registry cannot load the hive (file): \SystemRoot\System32\config\SOFTWARE or its log or replacing." It is corruption, absent or not accessible in writing.

    My laptop is frozen and nothing I try doesn't work. Is that what I can do to fix my TI or at least retrieve records and documents that are on the hard drive?

    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    You can start the recovery console?

    Look at the link below.  But I don't know if you're under Xp SP3.  Infact I don't know what operating system you are running.  If you are using xp sp3 check the link below.
