My installation disc for windows vista has an option "fix." This option allows to reset lost passwords? If yes how?
Hi Martine regina,.
We will not be able to reset the password by using the option repair; you will need password reset disk.

I tried to download a 'Virtual Villagers' Limewire program (what was I thinking?) and then I had all these virus that messed up my computer big time.
I have the error messages are:
Host process for Windows Services has stopped working as was closed.
The system could not find the environment option that was entered.
When I try to install the updates:
"WindowsUpdate_800700CB" "WindowsUpdate_dt000"
The change I made before all this was trying to install Limewire "Virtual Villagers" program.
I tried to go through the files and remove the sources of the Trojans, I ran several scans Malware Bytes (each indent to 4 Trojan horses, Rpot Kits, Ad/Spyware every time) and recently tried the Windows scanner. Who found 2 Trojan horses and withdrawn. Subsequently, I made a Malware Bytes scan which found 1 Trojan and I removed it.
I'm not able to create, delete or modify anything in the UAC. Uninstall the habit of most of the things I try to uninstall programs and features. I'm more able to control the volume on my computer with the arrow keys and Fn. My Gallery of photos will not preview more and my computer will not install updates. My computer turns off without warning a lot and takes awhile where I can turn it back on and I hope not to have it close back 20 minutes. I try to use the system restore, but it won't work. I don't have a Windows Vista disc.
How I have difficulty to all this and permanently delete all viruses and malware?

Latest version of Skype for Windows stops unexpectedly
This is not the Preview version of Skype, but is the oldest Skype for Windows, version 7.28.80.101. I'm a (paying) happy user of Skype for the past 7 years, and it is pretty central to my work as a tester of computer software. I noticed the new behavior very recently where Skype just stop with any kind of message that I saw, and if I do not realize and restart the application, the people I work with who just thinks I'm offline. No idea what could be causing this or how to fix it?
I guess that the problem is caused by the strange interaction between app overview of Skype and Skype for Windows desktop:
Even if you are not actively using the preview application, its context process, SkypeHost.exe, runs in the background and may periodically close the Skype desktop.
I did not see Skype on my computer and can not verify this behavior, but this problem has been reported elsewhere.

I started getting a message every time I boot my laptop Compaq Presario CQ60. Message is "host process for Windows Services has stopped". My speaked symbol now has a red cross I've ever had before. When it turns off I often have not all sounds. I have a feeling that this has happened after an automatic update. I did a system restore, but this does not solve the problem. It's the sound that is most annoying that I never know when or where I will not have it. I hope someone can help
