• I can not download exe files. I have no trouble to download files with other extensions (ex: dta).

  I have a HP Pavilion dm4-2070us computer running Windows 7.  I have the same problem with internet explore and Firefox.  The file seems to download but is never-ending; It is not in my downloads folder.

  Hello number1stat,

  try temporarily disabling your antivirus software and see if that helps, if it does not work then try the following.

  This can happen if you have customized your Internet Options for the Internet zone security settings, if the option 'launch applications and dangerous files' is set to 'Disable '.

  Method 1: Reset your security settings for the Internet zone to default level. Go to "Control Panel -> Internet Options" (or use the "Start-> Run-> inetcpl.cpl-> OK' to open 'Properties of Internet') and then click the Security tab, select the Internet zone and click on 'default '.

  Method 2: Define a custom security in the Internet zone level. Go toControl Panel -> Options Internet -> Security (tab)-> Internet'. If the security is set to 'High', or if you have customized the Internet zone settings, select "custom level...". "and change the simple option,"Launch applications and dangerous files""Disable"to"invite (recommended).

  If executable file downloads fail for some sites, but you are able to download from other sites exe files, check "Internet Options-> Security - > sites-> Sites" to ensure that problem site is not in the list of 'Sensitive Sites', by default, the security level for this zone is high. Some security, including Spybot S & D software, add sites to malicious software known to this list.

• Unable to run .exe files during the installation of new software.

  I can't install new programs because my system asking you what program use and my internet explore doesn't open automatically however my knowledge is on my desk and works very well.

  Looks like your Windows file associations have to dispose. This means that XP doesn't know what to do with files by looking at the file extension (.exe for executables)., .doc for MS documents, etc.

  If you don't have it you, something done for you - most likely malware.

  Have you tried the steps suggested in the previous post?

  Also, make sure that you have the latest update of the software antivirus installed on your computer, so that it works correctly.

• Unable to run .exe files without using runas:administrator

  Original title: Windows Script Profiler?

  I recently had a virus on my computer, and it's file, he decided to corrupt. So, naturally, the antivirus got rid of him. Apparently, it was a pretty important, because now shortcuts to executables do work if I run as administrator (otherwise, I must point out the path for the time of EACH shortcut manually) and pitchers for the games that open several executables for the open game (EX: LOTRO) do any work.

  Is there a way I could get this file? (yes I tried the system restore: it did not work)

• How is it that when I try to download a file from a web site, I get this message: Adobe Reader update and I'm unable to download the file?

  How can I overcome the Abobe Reader message whenever I try to download a file from a web site: Adobe Reader outdated! Subsequently, I am unable to download and print the file

  You do not give us the exact words, but I guess that this message appears on the screen, like on a regular PDF with this message. If so, ignore the message and save the file in the usual way on your desktop. Now open in Adobe Reader.

• Unable to run .exe files - windows for the application to launch guests

  When I try to launch a .exe, or .cmd file, Windows prompts you to wonder what application should I use to start the program. This happens on a single user profile on the machine, not the others. How can I fix this profile?

  Background:
  My child has apparently infected the computer. Whenever I started IE, two things happened:
  1. I have tons of warning messages that the computer has been infected
  2. I had the Vista "you want to run...?" question for the c:\users\tanya\app data\local\av.exe file

  I disconnected and logged on as an account administrator and then deleted the av.exe file. I have connected as a user infected, launched IE. Guests at the stop, but now I'm invited by Windows to how launch (apparently part of the java runtime) ssvagent.exe - since everything that I try to launch with a .exe or .cmd, or .com extension gives me a quick for applications to launch in. I suspect that the virus, the installation itself, not connected all the stuff.

  Then... How to hang it to the top? Advice?

• Unable to download the file to the data store

  Hello

  Can someone help me on this, I'm trying to download a file to the local data store on the esxi host, but its failure

  used as below

  $ds = get-data center 'test ' | Get-file "CISCO UCS B200 M3 | Get-VMHost | Get-Datastore "datastore."

  $destination = "\".

  $source = "D:\All Cisco\ENICandFNIC readers for UCSver2.2.C\updated drivers" - this folder

  New-PSDrive-location $ds - name VimDatastore - PSProvider ds-root $destination

  Set-Location ds:------.

  Copy-DatastoreItem-point $source - Destination $destination

  What error messages you get? When I run your script, only an empty folder is performed on the data store. When you add "-recurse" it also copies child items (files and directories)

  $ds = Get-Datacenter "test" |Get-Folder "CISCO UCS B200 M3"|Get-VMHost |Get-Datastore "datastore*"
  

  $destination = "\"
  

  $source = 'D:\Test ' # -- this folder
  

  New-PSDrive -Location $ds -Name ds -PSProvider VimDatastore -Root $destination
  

  Set-Location ds:\ New-PSDrive -Location $ds -Name ds -PSProvider VimDatastore -Root $destination
  

  Copy-DatastoreItem -Item $source -Destination $destination -Recurse
  

  But it's only 1 data store, if I understand your example, you are trying to copy to different data stores. This could easily be done like this:

  $DS = Get-Datacenter "test" |Get-Folder "CISCO UCS B200 M3"|Get-VMHost |Get-Datastore "datastore*" | select name,DatastoreBrowserPath
  

  $source = 'D:\Test ' # -- this folder
  

   foreach ($datastore in $ds){
  

  Copy-DatastoreItem -Item $source -Destination  $datastore.DatastoreBrowserPath -Recurse
  

  }
