Step 2:
if everything works fine in safe mode, I suggest to perform clean boot and remove the program that is causing the problem.

I suggest you run virus scan online by using the Microsoft safety scanner.

  • I tried several times to set up an email account with Thunderbird, but the next time I start the computer and start Thunderbird, no account is displayed.

    I bought a new desktop PC with Win 8.1 and installed Firefox and Thunderbird.
    Then, I tried to set up the e-mail account manually (in IMAP) following the instructions here: https://support-en.upc-cablecom.ch/app/answers/detail/a_id/22 , but can't set the mail server outgoing smtp correctly (I could receive mail but not send them).

Then, I started the automatic mail with UPC Cablecom under the http://www.upc-cablecom.ch/content/dam/www-upc-cablecom-ch/Support/executables/upc-cablecom-email-assistant.exe link tool and he did successfully set up the account, however, because a POP3 server account. As I was not happy with it, I deleted the server of incoming POP3 mail (and lost the e-mails received, of course...) and retried a manual installation. In doing so, I got an e-mail account IMAP incoming more two outgoing SMTP server (comparing them, I also understand the configuration error that I had done the first time). I then deleted the manual as SMTP server the automatically the installation server worked correctly.
    In this context, accepting them and sending E-mail worked OK. However, the next time I started the computer, the e-mail account disappeared and Thunderbird was asked to set up a new account again. I have successfully set up manually once more, but the same problem resurfaced at the next startup, the e-mail account was gone...!

If your computer came with preinstalled McAfee and you uninstalled, it is possible that some parts of it were left after uninstalling. Try using the McAfee removal tool , and then restart your computer. If you are currently using any McAfee product and face problems with components such as the antivirus, try using McAfee Removal Tool, and then reinstall McAfee product.

  • The notebook appears each time I start my computer.

    Hello

    For the last couple of days whenever I start up my notebook starts.

    The title on this is short - notebook. I searched all files for a short entitled note. No luck. I tried to restore the notebook at a previous time & that did not help.

    It is very annoying!  Any ideas?

    Thank you Vicki

    Look for an entry in the startup folder (Start-> all programs-> startup)

    Then run MSConfig and check the Startup tab.

    Remember that it is probably not a reference to the notebook itself but rather a .txt file.
