Update manual Windows in safe mode?

Hi all

I managed to majorly screw up my computer while trying to fix it.

I'm here now via SafeMode w/network.  I'm working on another site that has been very helpful in the past with a tech. So I think we have finally got rid of a nasty virus, we also got rid of some important issues due to remove it manually since the combofix program would not work.

Rather than try any on, I'll post a link to my thread of origin on the other site, because it has ALL the details.  I hope that's not a violation of the terms here.

http://forums.techguy.org/malware-removal-HijackThis-Logs/881001-virustool-virus-among-others.html

I thought maybe I could update windows and fix but since windows update does not load in safe mode, I thought that I could download and update manually. But I have no idea what updates should I download to do this, even if I knew where to find them.

Thanks in advance

You said that you could get in safe mode. From there, you should be able to locate your download and if all goes well to copy it for flash etc and save all the other files that you can. Remember, however, that whatever the bad guy did the damage could also affect your files that you want to save.

Another option is to contact manufactuer Poser 8 to get another copy. You will have to pay extra for it, but at least it can be an option.

Good luck.

  • No access to Windows Update in Windows Vista safe mode with network

    Since yesterday every time I connect normally to Windows Vista, the programs stop responding at random and nothing works Manager tasks even not so I am forced to close it manually, the only way that I normally use my computer is in safe mode

    My question is how can I access Windows Update in Safe Mode with network, because when I click on start - Windows Update, nothing happens and I cannot use windows install either.

    Thank you

    Hi Renee,.

    Please use the Community Forums for Vista.

    Probably not the cause, but enabling it does update race and there is probably a problem there.

    Well, let's see. If all your restore points are gone, it's bad. Often, it is a virus.

    Here's what we need. Error codes, messages, etc.

    If no pop up, go into the event viewer (just type in the search bar) and look in the logs of Windows, Applications, and system folders. Please only after the event. We just need the event id and the application causing him.

    Here's what you can do in the meantime.

    Run the checker system files and chkdsk.

    Get back to us with error messages and follow the directions below.

    Follow these steps.

    Type cmd into the search bar and press to enter.

    The chkdsk command line type, then press on enter.

    If it finds errors, type chkdsk /f to repair.

    Once that is complete, insert your windows installation disc in the drive and return to the command prompt. Type sfc/scannow, and then enter.

    If it works in Windows safe mode, then you have a problem with other software, maybe a security software or a system driver that runs on your computer.

    It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

  • Can't install Itunes, get an error that the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode"

    OP: Install problems Windows

    I tried to install iTunes, but he said that "the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode or if Windows Installer is not installed properly. Call support personnel. "They gave me similar messages by other programs I've tried to install as well.

    Because I was not running Windows in safe mode in time, I assumed that the installer was not installed correctly. So I tried to download from here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?familyid=5A58B56F-60B6-4412-95B9-54D056D6F9F4&displaylang=en

    But then I got error messages like "this update does not apply to your system" and "not enough memory is available to process this command." I tried all the links and none of them worked for me. I'm running a Vista Home Premium 64 bit, and I 2.38 GB of available RAM, so I don't think that the lack of memory is the problem here. What should I do?

    1.] I had a previous version of iTunes, but I got rid of it with Revo Uninstaller.

    I was looking around and I found this: http://www.vistax64.com/vista-installation-setup/96680-repair-windows-installer-service-vista-all-versions-2.html

    I followed the direction of the last message (by F'n Vista) and changed the value of WOW64 Registry and now iTunes has installed perfectly and works now. I'll try to install other programs that I got hurt with previously. Thank you very much for your help! :)

  • Download Windows 10 Windows 7 safe mode

    My laptop Lenovo starts only in Safe Mode; I have Windows 7 installed and updated.  This afternoon he stops suddenly and will now start safe mode, no matter what I do, including restoring to a previous restore point. I run anti-malware and antivirus scans, and everything was reported to be good.  My question is this: can I download 10 Windows in safe mode of Windows 7?

    You can not run the upgrade in Safe Mode and wouldn't take the risk from corruption in the new OS even when.

    But you can create support Installation Windows 10 and then make superior Clean install Windows 10 Upgrade, because any day now, a new Version will be pushed through Windows Update that enables directly with the old OS key product.  Windows fall 10 day set for November release

    Remember when installing kickoff to delete all partitions to make it cleaner, as shown in the Wiki.   Feel free to ask questions in return.

  • Windows does not start after update, but starts in safe mode

    last night my laptop set to day, I turned it off and when I started today he went straight to the safe mode selection screen. I chose to start in normal mode where it just went to blue screen, just a flash so I couldn't read what is on it and then restarted itself. I then chose safe mode with network boot and he finished making the update without problem, so I rebooted and tried to start up normally, but still it restarted itself, so I went back to safe mode which is what Im use it as today.

    as far as I know that it does not crush power or coward during the update and cannot think it's updating itself that causes the problem. Ive tried to do a system restore but it says theres no restore to restore points.
    Can someone please help me because running in safe mode is maddening as theres no graphics driver and the resolution is horrible.
    Thanks in advance

  • Repair the installation in Windows XP safe mode: Posible?

    Nice day

    I'm working on my computer that has Windows XP Professional, after having removed the old version of Norton 360 and reinstalled the One updated. My computer keeps restarting every 2 seconds in Normal mode. I can boot into safe mode and safemdoe with networking. I checked the event log and it gives me this: error code 0000001 a, parameter1 00041785, parameter 2 c0e00000, 81c544c0 parameter3, parameter4 00000000. Is there a resolution to this? or can I make an instaollation of repair windows XP in safe mode?

    Thank you

    If you are unable to do things, I asked, I think your best course of action is to make sure that all your data is backed up safely (there are methods to get there, even if you cannot start in Normal mode), and then perform a clean installation correct.

  • Cannot start windows in safe mode, the work of restoration but still cannot start unless in safe mode

    After a microsoft update beginning 04/04/11 awoke to noisy computer which was start and restart in safe mode.  Pbly. most of the night it was start and restart.  System Restore tried to 3 or 4 different dates, said has been restored, but this does not solve the problem.  Have you tried troubleshooting, nothing helps.  Worked on it for several days without any positive result.  Any advice will be appreciated.

    Hi Grandma fla,.

    1. you remember what update was installed before that the problem occurred?

    2. do you have security software installed on the computer?

    Method 1

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

    (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

    (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then you perform the clean boot in order to verify if any device on the computer is the origin of the hardware problem.

    a. click "Start", type "DEVMGMT. MSC"in the search text box and press ENTER.

    b. expand ' audio, video and game controllers ".

    c. right click on your sound card, select "Properties".

    e. Please use the same method to disable other devices such as: Modem, network card, CD - R drive. Please note that some devices such as the video card are not available should be disabled.

    f. restart the computer and check if it works.
