• Slow down the WIN XP Pro desktop icons

  Hello

  For some time, when I turn on my Windows XP Pro desktop computer, all icons appear on the desktop in their generic form (squares with dots of color on the inside).

  Then, one by one, the icons change very slowly, to their shape.

  No idea how to solve this problem?

  Thank you, Joseph.

  The icons that appear on your desktop are removed from the Cache icon.  It is possible that your icon cache is fragmented or does any resulting all icons must be fired from their original location (which takes much more time).  You can try to reset/rebuild your icon Cache.  It is not hard to do, and to do this, the instructions are in this article:

  '' The icons randomly change to different icons. ''

• Remove the guest user account

  Hello - I made an account of new additional guest a few weeks ago, and now I want to remove the account exactly the same, which has the name mikromalerier.

  My 2007 Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 is in my Danish mother tongue.

  I can see how to edit, block and 'Break' this account, but I don't see how and where to remove it. (By 'Break', I do not mean deleted but also not usable - in Danish "Als fra")

  What should I do?

  Thanks in advance - by

  You are welcome. I'm glad that everything is clear to you.

  Yes. You can " turn off " the guest account, but you can not ' clear ' it.

  There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
  • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
  • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
  • Use the password indicator (only works if an indicator was created and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
  • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

• delete, disable, remove the guest user account

  Hello

  I came across a lot of similar questions asked about deletion/deletion/disabling guest user account. the posted questions earlier and google has not provided me with answers specific questions.

  first of all, I know now that the guest user account is a system file that should not be deleted.
  1. Why is this?

  I enabled/activated the account invited for a day and people with mobility reduced/turned off later. I asked before and got a response that I should not have allowed the first guest account.
  2. Why is it?
  3. What's the harm in having activated once the guest account?

  the record of the guest user now appears in the c:\users\ location. It was not before but the fact now since that once I enabled guest account.
  4. do one thing 'ok' or is it a bad thing?
  5. What are the policies on the restoration of windows and system folders without having to reinstall the windows operating system?

  and finally
  6. in case the guest user account has been disabled/disabled, windows remove settings for it and wipe this account?

  Thanks in advance, forward your answers.

  Hello

  A guest account allows people to have temporary access to your computer. People using the guest account cannot install software or hardware, change settings, or create a password.

  Once the guest account is enabled, you will see the comments folder in the users folder and you will not be able to remove it. And when also disable you the folder of comments will be present, but it will not be enough space.

  If the comments have saved any file on your computer, it will be present in the folder of comments, it won't cause damage to your other user accounts.

  For more information, see the following Microsoft article and check if that helps.

• How to remove the guest on Macbook Air user account

  My 13 year daughter, uses the internet recklessly and I need to close the guest account, because my parental control does not seem to work. Even though I've taken away the guest user option in system preferences, it restarts the computer so that she can use safari. Can anyone help?

  Just how did you "took the guest user option in system preferences '?

  Did you go to system preferences > users and groups and click on the padlock at the bottom left and enter the admin password to allow edits then click the guest account and uncheck the checkbox allow clients to connect to this computer?

  Parental control is not / cannot apply to the guest account.

  You must have a separate account and then check the box for this account that says: turn on parental control.

• Is impossible to turn on the guest account. Cannot create new user account. "The service user profile Service has no logon. User profile cannot be loaded. »

  Is impossible to turn on the guest account.  Cannot create new user account.  After to try one of those and reboot, the icons of account appear, but when you try to use, the following instructions of error present when you try to log in with the new account or comments: "the user profile Service service has no logon.  User profile cannot be loaded. "I looked at the answers to all the previous ones (including the KB947215) and no not to address specifically.  For the most part, they seem to assume that there is a guest or a new profile in the first place...

  The system is Win 7 Pro 64-bit with all available updates.  I can't say when the last time that the guest account has worked (rarely used) and just found out I can't do new additional user, accounts trying to solve the problem of account of comments... so I have not tried to enter Safe Mode and do a system restore , because I can't yet identify a useful restore point...

  There are no entries in the registry for a guest or a new standard user account.  The registry entries for the three accounts normal-quickly (2 x admin, 1 x level) seem to be appropriate.  Watch register computer/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

  S-1-5-18 = system profile

  19 = local service,

  20 = network service,

  21 long numbers + 1004 plus User1 (admin),

  22 long + 1005 plus 2 user (admin),

  23 plus long + 1006 is user3 (standard,

  and no comments or additional profiles appear.

  C:\Users includes

  All users,

  User1,

  User3,

  By default,.

  Default user (which is inaccessible for me, even as an administrator),

  Public,

  User2,

  No guest or additional profile appear.

  All except the default user (I can't open) seem to have the appropriate, NTUser.DAT files although I don't know how to check for corruption.  Having both a default value

  and a default user folder seems hokey.

  I think I understand instructions how to fix or remove a corrupted profile, but that does not apply to the guest account or profiles that do not exist.

  Help?  Ideas?

  This message contains the strange solution.

  [Plan B - I found one thread where one user said that the same symptoms of the problem that you experience this problem solved]

  - - - - - - - - - - -

  Plan h - while another user said that it was caused by a file Windows Live problem

  This is the thread I can not create a new user account (Windows 7): the user profile service service doesn't have the logon

  You find it difficult to follow the thread as it's long and reported problem by different people to confuse it and there is also a bit of bickering [long filaments often end up being quite incomprehensible].

  ..., See references to the event viewer in the middle of page 4 and Windows Live we [at the bottom of page 2 more on page 3].

  I see not the logic of the any of those things, but if one of them do things long enough that you are trying to create new accounts that works, you will know how in the future until a proper solution is found.

  This is the useful part where this user has tested the solutions proposed in this thread linked above: -.

  This has proved to contain leads to a difficulty.  Have to admit, when I read everything the first time, several days, I did indeed find it confusing and even the parts that I "heard" (sorta) does not appear to be related to my symptoms.

  It turns out that the answer of JDMICHAL May 17, 2011 contained this:

  (1) C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows open live
  (2) this directory has two subdirectories with a single file of each. Go into each directory and apply the following:
  (a) make a right click on the file, open the properties.
  (b) click the Security tab.
  (c) it will issue a message: "to continue, you must be an administrative user with permission to view this object's security properties. Would continue you? ». Click on the button continue.
  (d) click on the Add button...
  (e) ' everyone' type in the box at the bottom of the dialog box. Click on "check names"; It should be emphasized the "everyone". Click OK.
  (f) ensure that the new "Everyone" entry "read" and "read & run" check under the column "allow".

  After doing this for two files, attempt to connect to the account. He must undergo.

  The procedure (bascially) worked... Although the different answers on my system differed slightly along the way (perhaps due to the slightly different versions of Win 7?, because I was already logged in as an administrator?).

  In any case, "Everyone" with the read and read/execute permissions adding to these two files seems to have done the trick:

  C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Bici\Bici1_00.sqm

  and

  C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm

• Second laptop connect only with the guest account

  I have an E1500 which replaced a broken WRT54GS. I have a desktop office computer using the ethernet cable to the Internet via a DSL Modem and I have two other laptops, one is a Macbook Pro running Lion and the other is a Toshiba running WinXP SP3 using two Wi - Fi connection. Before installing the E1500 all three computers were able to connect to the internet via my secure connection, but now with the E1500, I can get the Mac to connect using my secure WPA2 Personal connection and the Toshiba will connect through the guest account. I lived the configuration wireless for the Toshiba providing several times I put in good properties wireless and network key, but it does not connect. The process of connecting Macbook was a blink of an eye without any problem. I also get Windows XP wireless connection properties back to default (WEP), because it will not hold personal WPA2 settings, but even if it contains personal WPA2 security settings it does not connect. I was also able to connect the Toshiba with the ethernet cable, without going through the wireless network.

  Why can I connect via the guest account and not via my connection on the Toshiba? Help someone?

  Thanks for the detailed explanation.

  I had actually just this solved tonight with about 2 hours of chat with Linksys. It turns out the Windows SP3 XP Toshiba doesn't have a true WPA2 - Personal encryption, only the WPA - PSK (pre-shared Key), while the Macbook Pro has WPA2 Personal. The whole system runs on a hexadecimal code 63. I got the router located on only WPA2 Personal. When I changed (manual) WPA/WPA2/joint, then I had two computers on the network. But then came another problem, when I connected with the Macbook, Toshiba has lost its connection with an error message - "IP address conflict with another system on the network. That proved to be the setting of the channel on the network. The channel was not sync from the old Linksys router configuration. Changed to channel 11 on the router to synchronize with the Macbook Pro and that has been resolved. There is no option for channels on the Toshiba that I can find.

• Unable to print from the guest account

  I have 5 PC's set up, the HP versions all the same.  All are running Win 7 Home Premium.  One of them, I can't print from the guest account.  I can print fine to the account Admin

  The printer is a network HP 1505N printer.

  I checked the Security tab & permissions - everyone is put to PRINT.  The printer appears in the list, but you cannot print to it (the "print" button is grayed out).

  I tried to remove and reinstall.

  If I'm going to troubleshoot the printer, I get "year error occurred while troubleshooting."

  The only AV/Firewall program running is Microsoft Security Essentials.

  Still, this is only a single 1 PC 5.  Help, please!

• I can't remove the users account

  Hello

  I tried to find a way to delete a user account (user standar)
  I followed the instructions of windows help

  1. Open a user account by clicking on the button start , by clicking on the Control Panel, click user accounts and parental controls, click on accounts of users and then clicking on manage another account. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  2. Click the account you want to remove, and then click on delete account.

  3. Decide if you want to keep or delete the files created under the account by clicking on the file to keep, or delete files.

  4. Click on delete account.

     OK... but the only available option are changing the image or turning off the guest account

     I'm on windows 7 64 bit running as administrator, I have seen on other users of the forum with the same problem but no solution has been proposed

  Try this:
  1. create a new shortcut on the desktop that points to cmd.exe. Call Console.
  2. right click on this shortcut, then run it as administrator.
  3. type the following command and press ENTER:
  NET user "xxyyzz" / del
  (replace xxyyzz by name of the user account)

  If you want to also get rid of the folder of the user profile, follow these steps:
  4 restart the machine.
  5. log on as an administrator.
  6. open a Console session as it step 2 above.
  7. Enter the following command:
  RD /s /q "c:\Users\xxyyzz."
  Note: This method permanently removes all files and folders in the folder of the user profile. They are not recoverable. If in doubt about this action, use the following command instead:
  ren 'c:\Users\xxyyzz' 'xxyyzz.junk '.
  Now, wait a few weeks before you delete the file permanently.

• Virus or Trojan or something else that will activate the guest account?

  My computer is very slow, and every time I wake it from sleep I notice that the guest account has been enabled.  So I go into Control Panel and then users and groups and disable the guest account unblocking of the user and groups with my password, remove the check mark beside guest account and lock user accounts.  However, even if I am away from my computer, the check mark next to guest account gets back and the guest account enabled.

  Nobody else uses my computer.  Does anyone know of a Virus, Trojan, Bot, or anything else that might be my computer hijacking.  I have ClamXav, but nothing was found after several scans.  Help please.

  It is not a virus. Viruses don't do that sort of thing.

  Earlier, I think I've found that putting on find my Mac would automatically allow the guest account. Not sure if this is still true today. You can check by turning off to find my Mac, disable the guest account and then verify.

  Hello

  Here is a very good explanation by Malkeleah and others in the linked Thread that explains that it is virtually impossible to stop a person access to your computer, if they really want.

  "(N'importe quel ordinateur exécutant un système d'exploitation est accessible par une personne avec 1) access physical;" (2) time; (3) jurisdiction; (4) tools. There are a few things you can do to make it a little more difficult but:

  1. define a password in the BIOS that must be entered before starting the operating system. Also to set the supervisor password in the BIOS so the BIOS configuration cannot be entered without it.

  2. starting at the BIOS, change the order of boot to hard drive first.

  3. set strong passwords on all accounts, including the built-in XP administrator account (it is disabled by default in Vista).

  4. If you leave your own account connected, use Windows key + L to lock the computer (or set the screen/power economy saver) when you step away from the computer and require a password to use.

  5. do the other accounts of users limited in XP Home, regular user accounts in XP Pro. All users must be on a Standard account in Vista with an administrator account used only for purposes of elevation.

  Please understand that these are technical answers to what is essentially a technical problem and there are ways around these precautions. It is a problem of family / interpersonal which cannot be solved by technical means.
