• Removal of slow mail returned after a reboot in safe mode. Scan virus disabled Norton/out e-mail without help. (win10)

  Removal of slow mail returned after a reboot in safe mode. Norton Anti-Virus analyzes e-mails to off, no help. After restarting in safe mode, it worked for about 2 days.

  Let windows search not verified. However, I noticed many filters put in place by me to eliminate the unacceptable emails. Given that I erased these filters, it seems to work better. Sometimes slow, but for the most part better.

• Firefox does not, as soon as I open the window solutions, may NOT START in safe MODE?

  Recently, I accidentally begain download some unwanted addons - but I cancelled the download before being finished and quickly removed the programs by uninstalling program files issues. Firefox worked pretty well at the time, but later he started to become less sensitive. I did some cleaning (clear the cache, etc.) and done a virus scan. Has not made a difference.
  Eventually he started to get like some that I open a firefox browser - becomes inadmissible. The first two times, disconnection and reconnection to my connection int fixed. But now is not working and even after uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, it is inadmissible. I should have the version 6.0.2
  Finally, there is no way I can run firefox in SafeMode because as soon as I open the browser it is inadmissible, which means that I can not even access toolbars.

  -> Close Firefox

  • Click the Firefox button, and then click exit
  • NOW press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC keys to open the--> Task Manager process tab-> click right firefox.exe and click end process tree -> close the Task Manager

  -> Start Firefox in Mode safe by holding down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox

  • As alternative method, use the Win + R key combination and enter one of the following values in the box run Windows:
    • Firefox-safe-mode
    • "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"-safe-mode
    • "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla"-safe-mode

  -> Safe mode of Firefox window will appear-> don't SELECT ANY OPTIONS, just click continue in Safe Mode

  Check and tell if its work while you use Firefox Mode without failure.

• My 8 victory... infected with the virus cannot start in safe mode...

  recently, my computer of windows 8 has a virus... (miss click an ad pop up and it's on the computer)

  I already got Malewarebytes Anti Maleware and installed AVG, but this virus that bypassed and infected my computer. I tried the standard F8 during startup to go into safe mode and run my anti virus scanners, but apparently it does not work in windows 8. Some say SHIFT F8, that does not work either. Also any other method of setting up safe menu starting boot or mode does not work as it should connect on the desktop to go threw the settings and activate it for the next boot upward. This does not work for me since the virus I have apprently made my fall display driver, after I get my user password to start the desktop computer, so I don't see anything but the pointer of the mouse, everything is black. Y at - it another way to start in safe mode or trigger a recovery system or restore without actually being on the desktop?

  Why windows might change?

  I already ordered a recovery disk as that seemed to be my only option. But the works of windows 8 way I will NEVER buy a computer with it again. Cannot start in safe mode and can't do the simplest task without being a great test. It's crazy. I thought that windows 8 was supposed to be simple and easy to use!

• After having upgraded to Firefox 24 it now won't start at all after clicking on the icon. My OS is Windows Vista premium. It will start in safe mode.

  Upgrade to Firefox 24 and now nothing works at all despite uninstall it and reinstall several times and lose all my favorites etc. However, it does not start in safe mode. At first, I thought it was my Norton 360 Security, but after 2 hours in contact with them, I'm still in the same position. When I double click on the Firefox icon I see the moment where the cursor and then it disappears and nothing loads.

  My OS is Windows Vista Premium and I use Windows internet explore for the time.

  HELP Please!

  Thank you nellus91.

• Vista 64-bit Black Screen of Death, with just a mobile available slider, the system does not start in safe mode.

  My system worked properly on 25 April and then something happened and now the machine comes back with "Start menu options" but will not start in one of the listed options, modes result in the same outcome.  System also starts on the Vista CD.

  System begins to boot normally, shows the tracer Green Windows at the bottom of the screen, then the mouse pointer appears and moves but the rest of the screen remains black.

  That's it, that's all what he will do.  I checked the settings of the computer and ran the diagnostic tests available and everything seems to go fine and passes all the tests.

  I worked on my own computers for over 20 years and never been stumped before, but I must say this is a first, and I have no idea what to try to do it now.

  Help or direction is appreciated.

  original title: Vista 64-bit Black Screen of Death, with just a mobile available slider, the system does not start in safe mode.

  See if there is a way to tecover clean your data before doing a restore to conditions of factory that will wipe the drive of all.  You can use Knoppix http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html with a good ISO as Copier: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm as well as a blank CD (which you will need to do on another computer).  Starting on this disc and lla should give you enough access to the system (if you do not have any other means) to backup your important data.

  So since you seem to have no other alernatives, you can try retoring the original factory computer options. However, if it is a hardware problem as could very well be the case, you can still encounter problems after even this drastic step.  Then you will need to consider in a reputable computer repair shop (NOT Geek Squad or or a any of these big store centers) or maybe even go back to the manufacturer for repair.   Check out several options and compare the costs, quality and guaranteed and then make your best decision.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
