  When it comes to antivirus software, you want one and only one installed and running on your computer.  Two or more may come into conflict with eachother and degrade performance.  I advise you to uninstall Windows defender and use soley mse.

  also I strongly suggest that you avoid using "PC optimization" tools.  They can help a little, but they often do more harm than good.

• What kind of laptop should I run CS 6 and it will work at Northwoods?

  I have a desktop with Adobe CS 5.5 and I am very happy with it. Problem is I think now to spend some long periods in a remote location, in the Wisconsin northwoods.

  1 - What are the specifications of your laptop can handle 6 CS?

  2. then - I sign up for Creative Cloud services for, say, a few months and then suspend the service when I'm back at my desk? What is the price for this?

  3. then - I use Creative cloud when I don't have access to the Internet because the internet service is sporadic or nonexistent in northwoods?

  4. then - I easily transfer projects of portable 6 CS to CS 5.5 on desktop?

  5. If not, can I just install my CS 5.5 in a new laptop?

  Hi John,.

  Please answer below

  1 - What are the specifications of your laptop can handle 6 CS?

  It depends on the application, you will use and install. Video applications such as Premiere pro, after effects have higher requirements as compared to InDesign, Illustrator etc. Please consult the specification for each application tecniques. This link will help with details:system requirements | Adobe Creative Suite 6

  2. then - I sign up for Creative Cloud services for, say, a few months and then suspend the service when I'm back at my desk? What is the price for this?

  Yes, you can, you can find the details creative.adobe.com/plans prices

  3. then - I use Creative cloud when I don't have access to the Internet because the internet service is sporadic or nonexistent in northwoods?

  No, you can't. You need internet at least once to activate the software.

  4. then - I easily transfer projects of portable 6 CS to CS 5.5 on desktop?

  It is based on the file format. File as JPEG, PSD, TIFF etc. are universal and must work perfectly well between CS6 and CS5.5 However as INDD format will be a concern as InDesign file is saved in a newer version could not be opened directly in the old version.

  5. If not, can I just install my CS 5.5 in a new laptop?

  Yes, you can.

  Hope this helps

• Error running Visual C++ by trying to patch Starcraft 2

  I was away from my computer for about seven months, and very little has changed in it while I was gone. On the way back, I tried to run Starcraft 2, and when the patch came I immediately received a runtime error, a snip which can be seen here: http://imgur.com/fOtf3.

  No other program on my computer shows no problem. It is impossible to play Starcraft without patch, and I'm stuck. As part of an attempt to solve this problem, I have:
  -Updated my video drivers
  -Scanned my HD to find errors
  -Defragged my HD
  -Do of course, I have all the important Windows updates
  Reinstalled or repaired all the Visual C++ Redistributable Packages that I could find
  -Reinstalled Java
  -Checked dxdiag
  -Run a registry fix
  -Run analyses of virus with multiple different programs
  -Tried reinstalling the program from the disk
  -Reinstalled and run the program in safe mode with networking
  -Made a new account administrator and moved there
  -Tried to run in a clean boot
  All this was without success. I tried to get the fix and update manually, and while the update does not receive the error, it works simply forever, over and over again without any result.
  Unfortunately I do not have a useful system restore point. Any help would be appreciated. I've been back for a few days with the Blizzard support on this and they are as confused as I am.

  Any help on the Forum of Starcraft?

• Should I Norton and Microsoft Security Essentials Virus protection?

  I downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials for a long time; but I keep getting popup windows telling me that they cannot provide protection against viruses because they did not have a virus to day something - or - others.

  Two windows appear, one after the other, both have an error number. If I followed the instructions I always come back to a selection of Norton anti packages of virus which must be repaid, which I don't want. That's why I installed Microsoft Security Essentials, because I was sick of seeing these things and try to follow the instructions always with the same results.

  Recently, I clicked on something in laptops and has seen a long list of time that requests had been made by Norton get me their updates - it was very very long.

  I don't know what it is all about - what it means? I find it more than an irritation. These pop-ups will light up whenever I start the computer. Can I stop this?  Do I have Norton and Microsoft - I realized that any previous protection system would be obsolete when I downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials.

• Impossible to update of Windows Media Player and Microsoft Security Essentials and the error is "access denied error 80070005."

  Apparently an involuntary change of administrative privileges or permissions (Windows XP Pro, SP3) keeps me updated Media Player version 9 to 11 v. and updated virus Security Essentials definitions.
  For Media Player, wmsetup.log reports access denied error 80070005 and UpdSpAPI.log reports access denied for the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Settings\MP3Encoding\LowRate registry key. In regedt32, I'm blocked from display HKLM\...\MediaPlayer\Settings and below, and "are allowed to view the current permission settings, but... can make a change." Except that I can't. I can enter the change but get «...» Access is denied"trying to apply them. So this is the first problem that I need help.
  But of course it's more than a registry key and the subkeys, because MSE too is affected and will download but not install virus definitions. WindowsUpdate.log reports: failed to install with error 80070643.
  My user account (it's the only one!) is part of the Administrators group and all that I tried to verify administrative permissions is positive. This is a new issue. No virus/malware, according to MSE, Lavasoft Ad-Aware, MalWarebytes Anti-Malware.

  I try to run the security essentials, and he tells me that I'm missing msvcp90.dll. Same problem occurring with a real player has not re - install. How can I recover file?

  Hi BradleyMitchell,

  1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  2 when was the last time it was working fine?

  3. what version of Real player installed on the computer?

  Msvcp90.dll error can be caused if the Visual C++ Library Runtime components are missing or corrupt on the computer.

  Method 1

  I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

  The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows XP installation CD.
