I used the sizing problem windows update, now, I find that most of my programs have been removed. I was not able to restore them. I'm a newcomer in windows 8

Hi Eric!

Refresh removes applications that was not installed on W8 in the first place, which means at least apps that came with the W8.
You have to manually reinstall programs including the update removed.

    It is a good number with a boot drive (C:\ drive) that is cruelly of free space.

    A healthy walk NEEDS 20% free space at least to work properly and prevent your suspension system.

    Several causes are possible, but check your free space. Upgrade your hard drive if necessary.

  • I downloaded a key generator for a game. Now I can't run most of my programs.

    The programs themselves seem not to be damaged because I can open them if I choose a program out of the list when you open a file. for example I can't open realplayer desktop or programs list but when I click with the right button on a mp3 file and choose open with real player it works. This with most of my programs. I also have Norton 360 and I update frequently, and it shows no virus. If it helps, I still have the file infected in the trash.

  • Error: System cannot find the path specified during the installation of most of the programs of the C drive

    I can't install most of the system disk c.It programs always show me "system cannot find the path specified." But, when I copy it to a disk D it starts installing. Most of the programs is not installed properly, because it seems that they cannot access some areas on the system drive. I tried already to check drive C for errors. It did not help. »

    I solved my problem. It seems that Windows 7 creates additonal 100 MB partition with the system partition. When I reinstall Windows 7 I formatted the C drive but not the extra partition and perhaps this conflict has caused. I installed the system again but I have two of these drives formatted and it works normally again. Thanks anyway.

  • Most of my programs ends with .encre how can I fix this problem?

    After a problem to get some pictures to record from memory card, most of my programs ends with .encre and will not work. I am running windows 7 Home premium.

    1 I need to ask you to clarify this point.  I guess you look at the files using Windows explore via the road C:\Users\YourUserName\Desktop etc. not through libraries like that maybe confused.

    2 you say that shortcuts to programs are now "excel.lnk" but have been "excel" just before?  Or even 'excel.ink', which is what you typed.

    3 or you say "excel.exe" itself is now 'excel.lnk' / 'excel.ink '?

    4 the second would be amazing as it would mean that each program name had been corrupted.

    5 shortcuts, have indeed, the .lnk extension itself would not be a problem - you can always show or hide these extensions [we can talk about this later that it is secondary].  So, is it LNK or INK?

    6. what happens when you try to run a program from its link on the start menu?  What answer do you have the system?  This applies to Internet explorer, Windows desktop explorer, WordPad, if you?

    Repair Apple Software Update of programs and features, Control Panel, and then try again.

    If not for general advice see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review other cases and a list of documents to support further down the page, in which case one of them applies.

  • Cannot open file because Windows needs to know what program created the file

    After downloading some files when I try to open the file, I get the message cannot open the file, windows needs to know what program created the file.

    Any suggestions?

    Perhaps no program has been assigned to this file format and so you cannot open these files.
    I put t know which files you downloaded, but you can choose an application installed that can open these files.

    Right click the file and I have to then choose open with.
    Then, you could choose the program you want to use.
