  It is always sensible in this situation to achieve a malware check

  Start the computer in safe mode with network and download and install Malwarebytes (free version for individuals only), updated definitions and run in safe mode. Disable other security software while you do the analyses.

  Download and run SuperAntiSpyware (Free Edition)

  Some malware is installing the entries of proxy server redirecting internet connections. If you encounter this problem step 2 see in the following link:

• How can I find several duplicate files and remove the using Windows Explorer

  Somehow I see several duplicate on my computer files.  I can tell when they arrived as all the duplicate files ' _10-Mar-15_1. ' " However, I don't know how they arrived.  I think that Google Drive was the culprit, but I can't be sure.

  How we (me) use Windows Explorer to find all files with "_10-Mar-15_1." and delete them all?

  I am using Windows 7 64 bit

  Thank you!!!

  Windows Explorer can do no such thing. To remove recursively a certain file is easy - see below. To identify duplicates and remove some of them is much more difficult, because:

  • Are two files duplicates because
    -They have the same name?
    -They are the same size?
    -They have the same file date?
    -They have the same content?
    -Everything above?
  • When they are, which ones should be deleted?
    -The oldest?
    -The most recent?
    -The batch?

  Here's how to remove a certain file to recursively. Assume that they are in the folder "C:\Users\BHunter\Documents".

  1. Click the start planet.
  2. Type cmd. exe and press ENTER.
  3. Enter the following command and press ENTER:
     dir/s/b/p 'C:\Users\BHunter\Documents\_10-Mar-15_1 '.
     This will show you all the files whose name above.
  4. del /s /q "C:\Users\BHunter\Documents\_10-Mar-15_1."
     This will permanently delete all files with the name above. You cannot restore them.

• Satellite P750/P755 - backup and restore Windows 7

  Hello

  My hard drive is about to fail on my Windows 7 Satellite P750; I get warnings of impending failure for a month now. I bought a hard drive again, and he's ready to go, but I am unable to create a backup and restore point. I get an error message 0 x 81000037: "snapshots of files cannot be read.

  Let me give you a part of the history of my machine before we get to the question. Windows 7 is pre-installed on this machine. A year ago, I created a new partition and installed Linux. Linux then took over the responsibilities of the boot. A couple of weeks, I deleted the Linux partition. This gave me a problem because the computer could not start. Fortunately I had recently created a return upwards and the restore point, and during the process, I was asked if I wanted to create a Windows 7 Home Premium repair disc. I could use this CD to access a command line tool that makes the new bootable machine.

  However, I have more a hidden on my machine boot partition (at least according to the disk management snap-in I'm not). Now, I get the above error when I try to create a new backup and restore point. I don't have a copy of the previous backup and restore point (I deleted it to make room for a new).

  From my research, apparently, one of the possible causes of the error 0 x 81000037 is related to the size of the hidden boot partition. Because I do not have the hidden boot partition I fear this could be the cause.

  There are other possible causes of this error. For example, a virus that the antivirus refuses to give access to during the back up and restore the partition, and junction points in to save readers who are the mounted volumes. I ran a full scan on my computer and cannot find any threats. I checked my junction points (which are a bit) and none are mounted drives.

  This brings me to suspect that the lack of a boot partition is the problem. I saw in the forums of some suggest it is better to back up all my data in the traditional way (already done, since you ask), install the new drive to hard and then reinstall Windows 7.

  So eventually, we get to my question!

  Windows 7 is installed on my machine, I think that I don't have the disks to reinstall on a new hard drive. Is this correct? I am able to get a copy?

  To be honest, I wouldn't reinstall Windows on a hard disk again, rather than using a return to the top of the spirit and point of restoration. I have a LOT of programs and rubbish that have accumulated in it in the (almost) last 3 years.

  Thank you for your patience. If there are some details that might be useful, but I left out (I'm sure there is) please let me know.

  > I think Windows 7 is installed on my machine, that I don't have the disks to reinstall on a new hard drive. Is this correct? I am able to get a copy?

  You have not all discs because Toshiba provides clean recovery disc creator software which is always pre-installed on new laptop computers.
  This recovery disk tool or support of creator creates the recovery disk that can be used to recover the laptop.

  It was a big mistake not to create this disk, however, you have the possibility to order this disc here:

• How can I locate and remove malware from my Windows XP laptop?

  Last week, my Windows XP laptop (at work) became infected with one or several programs of virus and malware (including a program of Netsky).

  I ran my McAfee virus scan and removed the virus that we found.  When the Netsky pop-ups started to happen, I ran Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (mbam - setup.exe) by following the instructions in our IT Department.  When the Netsky guest continued, I have downloaded and run W32.Netsky FixTool of Symantec 1.13.0 who stopped the guests.

  This morning, I met 'Update KB977165' failure in the startup problem.  From what I read this problem seems to be limited to "infected" computers  I just finished rerunning McAfee and Symantec Malwarebytes with no infections found.

  My COMPUTER service feels that the mbam - setup.exe should have solved the problem.  Whenever I look at using malicious software removal on the internet, I get more ads for questionable software applications than anything.

  Is there a detection and removal of malware simple tool that doesn't cost a fortune (as FREE)?

  This morning, I met 'Update KB977165' failure in the startup problem.  From what I read this problem seems to be limited to "infected" computers

  EDIT: A week later and it seems in fact that 99.9% of Windows XP users who encountered a BSOD after installing KB977165 see the effects of a W32/Alureon rootkit infection.

• Error 1706 and restore Windows to previous state

  I have a 1706 error regarding a photo program pre-installed on my computer Dell in 2006.

  Search on the site Web of the seller said to find a particular .msi file and run the installation program that him, but a search of my computer files shows that I do not have this file.

  I searched the Internet and somewhere it was proposed to restore Windows to a previous state.  But when I do that, I get a message that the restore has not been made, and no changes have been made to my computer.

  I ran a registry repair, but that did not help.

  I have 2 separate problems here?  A Setup error AND a computer restore the question?  Or are they related in some way?

  You won't get any early responses constantly asking the same question (4 times in 4 minutes).

  I suggested that as a first step, you use the function "UNDO" - if available - in the program that you used to do the repair 'Register' and then uninstall and throw this program.  See http://chris.pirillo.com/are-registry-cleaners-safe-to-use/ , http://www.edbott.com/weblog/2005/04/why-i-don ' t-use - Registry cleaners / and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2563254

  It seems that if you attempt to uninstall (or perhaps fix) an application program.  The MSI file is the Microsoft Installer file used to install the application in the first place.  The same file is also used to uninstall or repair the installation.  If this file was deleted a long time ago (or maybe even never present in the disk image of Dell that was used for the manufacture of your computer), System Restore won't help (don't).  System Restore is not a panacea.

  The usual method to solve problems in uninstalling applications is to install the application (which is to replace the missing msi file) again and then uninstall it.  Unfortunately, this does not work in all situations because some applications refuse to install if the old version is still present.  There are alternative methods - if uninstalling the app, that's what you try to do.

  It is possible that if you explain what you are trying to accomplish, someone may be able to provide a suggestion.

  To increase the probability of getting help, please provide the full text of the error message, and the name and version of the photo program.  Also, please provide the version of Windows you have, including the service pack (click right my computer and select properties for this info).  Because you have a Dell, provide your Number of Service Dell could also help.

  Hi DadVQ,

  ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  This problem occurs because of a missing or corrupted Rundll32.exe file. This problem can also be caused by a virus.

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1: Follow the steps mentioned in the article below and check if the problem still persists.

  Cannot find the Rundll32.exe file when you open Control Panel

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/812340

   

  Method 2: If the problem persists, I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: While hard disk analysis if bad sectors are found when scanning try to repair this area, all available on which data can be lost.

• Dell Mini computer, 9-gigabyte hard drive is full. I think with duplicates windows XP. I have here a program to detect duplicates and remove?

  Y at - it a program online, I can get to double program ID (files) lines and remove a?

  At least the double file Finder knows which copy is correct - which would not be wise.

  9 GB?  Backup to some USB Thumb Drive all that you need to format the device, install Windows XP, install the latest drivers and all the patches (ideal if you can start Windows XP with SP3 integrated installation), then just the applications you * need *.  Should be between 4.5 and 6 GB of things.  Leave you much, but - it is a mini. ;-)

• Is it possible to buy a new computer with Windows XP or buy one with Windows 7 and remove it and install Windows XP? I have

  I now have a computer with Windows XP and wanted to buy a new computer.  All new computers come with Windows 7.  Is it possible to buy a new computer with Windows XP (or buy one with Windows 7 and remove it and install Windows XP)?   I like XP and have talked to people who are not really happy with Windows7 and holds XP back.  AND I also discovered that my printer is not compatible with Windows 7 - it is not that I love him and want to keep it.  I can't afford to buy a new computer AND printer, since I have been unemployed for more than 2-1/2 years.   I would like to use XP on a new computer!   I would appreciate it if you could let me know what is possible or if I'm stuck with my old computer.  Thank you very much!

  Probably not, you will find a computer with XP on it.

  If you buy a computer with Windows 7, you will first need to know if it would be compatible with Windows XP. Probably not, because they are not designed for XP and drivers are not available.

  Unless you want to spend the time, you're stuck with your old computer.
