  Hi DECantrell,

  Because the problem started after installing Windows updates, you will need to perform a system restore before the updates were installed

  You can try a system restore to a restore point before the updates were installed.

  Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:

• The desktop icons move after reboot

  original title: the desktop icons

  I have Windows 7 and when I manually move some icons on the left side of the screen to the right of the screen... they stay there.  I entered the office properties and click on the appropriate buttons.  Everything's fine until I restart the computer.  The strange thing is that only a couple of icons that were positioned on the right side are now on the left side.  I and then pull them to the right and everything is OK until the next reboot and we start over again.  What I am doing wrong?

  Thank you

  Hi tom sk,.

  Thank you for using Microsoft Windows forum.

  Check if "Auto Arrange icons" is enabled.

  If so, uncheck it and move icons, restart the computer and check.

  Your Antivirus software could be parasitic. Try temporarily disable you security software and check.

  If the problem persists, install a third-party program in windows that govern funds layout and positions for your that you can restore it later.

  * Original title: Microsoft kb3134214

  The update of Microsoft Windows KB3134214 file is suspended and will not be, nor finish the rest downloads to install. I downloaded the updated individual security file. I'll wait to install pending a possible resolution here. If anyone has experienced this problem and has a resolution, I would be grateful to receive information and repair.

  Hi Nathalie,.

  Thanks for the reply and the link to the article. I appreciate it. While I was not having trouble to download updates, it was one of the update of the files froze during installation. I had gel resulting set before your answer.

  I'm not sure what I did to fix it, but the installed annoying file itself. Here are the steps I took to learn that annoying file has been installed:

  "I restarted my computer.

  "then stop it showed that he was trying to install the file again

  "I hit the reset button on my machine.

  "My machine is restarted, I received the message that my machine was not correctly stop and choose Safe mode or start normally.

  "I chose boot normally.

  "Somewhere during the start-up, something installed or flashed a message

  "My system automatically restarted by itself.

  "On my screen, my computer displays a message saying it was set up my system.

  'My computer restarted again

  "Back to my login screen, I had a repeat of the previous message from my computer's configuration.

  "After that over, I arrived at my office

  "I've manually run Windows Update

  "After Windows Update, I checked the files available, disabled the original file in question and click the button install.

  "These files correctly installed and gave a message requesting to restart."

  "I rebooted my system manually.

  "Back in my office, I manually tried to install the file in question.

  "It gave me a message that it was already installed.

  How he installed himself is a mystery. Other than on the first attempt to update my machine, it has NEVER included in my another attempt to update. Anyway, my machine is purring along as if nothing had happened.

  You can mark my question.

  Thanks for your help,

• Cannot connect to internet after auto update under Vista.

  Original title: System shows the connection, but cannot connect

  After an automatic update in Vista in mid-August I can no longer connect to the internet.  My system tray shows that I am connected but I can't.  I'm on a DSL wireless connection with a desktop computer (one does not) and a laptop with XP that always works very well.  I re - configure the modem, uninstalled, and reinstalled the wireless card, has run an anti-virus in safemode, uninstalled the Qwest connection network and re-installed AND uninstalled the update to Vista.  I even tried the system restore to an earlier time.  Nothing.  Internet diagnosis says that it cannot solve the problem.  I have read other forums on the UN-checing proxy settings but mine have not been verified.  I re-set my settings IE8 by default.  Uninstall protection against viruses... What did I miss?

• Unable to show the updates available for Windows Vista

  Hi, people. I have a display problem in the updates that are available for Windows Vista Ultimate Edition. What does "Select the updates to install" window does not display an important 33 and 59 option updates that are available are displayed and I cannot uncheck those I really didn't need.

• I get error code 800F0825 when the computer attempts to install the update to vista KB938371. What should I do to fix this?

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • I get error code 800F0825 when the computer attempts to install the update to vista KB938371. What should I do to fix this? messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Backup of personal data (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then do a format and clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) will NOT fix it!

  Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or a network otherwise and before using a USB key that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:
