• Reference Dell 375 Bluetooth no longer works after update Windows 8, R296919, blocked by the Compatibility Assistant programs - how to fix

  Hardware: Dell laptop with adapter Bluetooth 375 Dell running Windows 8

  Problem: after Microsoft Windows 8 update, all Bluetooth devices stopped working.  Moreover, they could is more to be discovered to pair them up.  Device Manager showed all works very well.

  Failure of attempts to repair:
  -Uninstall all components of Bluetooth in the Device Manager and analysis of the material changes.
  -Uninstall Dell 375 in programs & features (WIDCOMM Bluetooth Software) in order to reinstall (R296919).  The installation was quickly blocked by the program compatibility Wizard.
  -With the Dell software uninstalled, I thought that perhaps that it was no longer necessary, and so Microsoft software would work.  Yet once, I uninstalled all Bluetooth components in the Device Manager and analysis of the material changes.  Still could not pair.
  -Check in Bluetooth services and services were running.

  What worked:
  -Run GPEdit and go to the compatibility of the components/Application Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates/Windows /.
  -Enable the following:
  Remove Program Compatibility Property Page
  Turn off Application compatibility engine
  Disable the program compatibility Wizard
  -Run services.msc and stop the process of Bluetooth
  -Extract the R296919 in a directory
  - on R296919.exe and select run as administrator
  -For me, the installation failed the first time.  Then I repeated it, and it was installed fine, but required reset, which I did.
  -At this point, I was able to pair Bluetooth devices again.
  -Open Device Manager and go to the Bluetooth Module Bluetooth/Dell Wireless 375.  and select Properties.  Click the power management tab, and uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off the device to save power" and press OK.  If you do not perform this step, you will have all kinds of problems with Bluetooth devices, including keyboards and mice.
  -Reverse changes in GPEdit to not configured.
  -Reboot

  How to avoid the problem:
  Microsoft has an updated driver that States it is for the adapter Bluetooth of Dell 375.  on the update and select Hide update.  Microsoft has had quite a few black Tuesday lately, and this update is just another example.

• Update Windows 10 and HP System Recovery

  Hey,.

  I plan on moving from Win 7 to 10 to win, but the only thing stopping me is, what happens if I use the HP System Recovery after doing? Considering that it is pre-installed for Win 7 on my system, it will return it Win 7 or what?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Yes, if you are using HP System Recovery, it would reinstall Windows 7, but it is important to note that the ability to do it from the hard disk recovery Partition does not work after upgrade to Windows 10.  You must use your recovery media - if you have not created this, a guide can be found here.

  Another option that you might consider, if you must reinstall Windows 10 once you have upgraded is the following.

  Also long Windows 10A active Ok after upgrading to 7, in the future, you can just perform a new installation of 10 as stated in the guide on the following link.  Note: On the activation screen, select 'I don't have a product key' - 10 Windows will activate automatically once installation is complete.

• Update Windows XP after the system recovery

  I had to do a recovery of the system due to the victory of missing files. What I have to do the updates one at a time and is there a way to determine where to start? Norton will not install unless I've got sp2 which was one of the missing files. There is no firewall protection in the restored files, so I won't be on the net longer than necessary.

• Can't update windows like systems to give me an error that it cannot find a file and he needs me to insert the media.

  Original title: re install windows 8.1.

  I have problems with my computer and want to re install windows 8.0. I had upgraded my computer windows 7 to windows 8 but can't update windows like systems to give me an error that it cannot find a file and he needs me to insert the media.  I insert the windows disc 8, but the system indicates that it is not the correct information.  He is looking for another disc?  I created a recovery usb drive, but that doesn't seem to help.  I feel that I have completely new install windows 8 but I am nervous of course think I mess up something.  given that this computer was originally shipped with windows 7, I have to use the recovery discs I've done initially or is there a way to create new ones with the new windows 8?

  Hello and welcome!

  If you are using a CD to upgrade of Windows 8, then there not all reinstall the files included for a full Windows.

  Your best option is to use the recovery partition on your hard disk or the recovery CD from your PC back to Windows 7. Then Windows 7 SP1 upgrade and get all updates. Then, move to Windows 8 again.

• Windows Update Causes Massive screw-up system. Help!

  Hello world!

  I need help desperately. I use a HP Slimline desktop running Vista. I've recently updated (last Tuesday or more) using UPDATES AUTOMATIC - and my computer everything is SCREWED now.

  Essentially - I installed the update as part of the shutdown process, as I normally would. But restart my computer, it gets regarding the screen before the log-in (when he has this loading bar bit and the rest of the screen is black). Momentarily, one of two things happens:

  1. blue screen of death. The computer turns off, tells me to reboot and try to restart in Mode without failure.

  2. Startup Repair launches. I ran the diagnostic tool, but it has not detected any problem.

  So pretty much the problem is that WINDOWS WILL NOT BOOT. In the Startup Repair, it tells me there is no problem with anything - but it also TELLS me THAT SYSTEM RESTORE has BEEN STOP on my computer. I do not disable this feature!

  I have all my files stored on my external hard drive - however, my computer does not recognize this drive. My wireless internet, which is usually given if my computer is turned on or not, also does not work.

  I'm totally screwed? I mean, I've never used to before startup repair and it is confusing, mostly because I do not know why the system restore does not work. I CANNOT LAUNCH MODE without FAILURE or any other useful tips from Windows.

  What can I do? Help, please.

  the computer had McAfee installed as a trial when I bought it. Have since renewed - subscription is up to date, and no problems have been associated with him other than he identify some of my updates of windows as spyware.

  1 applications McAfee (and Norton) are known to not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. Even on the assumption that you have purchased a subscription before the free trial period has expired, there is a good chance that "remnants" of the trial caused the version purchased, renewed not to install and work properly.

  2. the fact that the application of McAfee is supposed to be identify legitimate (assumed) updates to Windows as"spyware" is certainly the evidence to me that the application of McAfee was not "works" and therefore led to the infection of W32/Alureon rootkit you are dealing with now.

  To be clear as possible, your problems are not due to the installed KB977165 itself, they are due the KB977165 have installed on an already infected computer. [1]

  NB: The McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free and download/run the removal tool from McAfee before installing updates, Windows Service Packs, or updates IE and before you reinstall your purchased version of McAfee Security Center [2].

  I can't update "windows" or "windows defender". Followed the steps described by Microsoft help, tried to download manually, have asked Microsoft to help (no response yet) these first two things didn't work. I even had something like; change setting.that message security came for "Windows update", I have change the security setting, did not just well, still nothing.
  Windows Defender gives me an error code that looks like this;
  Error Code 0 x 80070005
  That's all I can get, and it will not update.
  and on top of it, I've lost my "Microsoft Help and support (it) when I click Start and click Help and support, I get a (?) all help options or when I click on it nothing there is totally 'empty '.
  I have one more problem.
  I tried to defrag my computer, and I can't do it either. I get a grey screen and if I click on anylise or defragment, it does nothing, no error message or anything else. Tried to manually defragment Traore does not work, tried to load a defrag on the web program, wouldn't let me load it.
  Nobody knows what happens here? why I'm having these problems all of a sudden? I do nothing but send E-mails and read my emails and I do not browse the internet or enter sites that are safer. So, what can I do? How to make everything return to normal? can someone help me with this?
  Also let me tell you right now, I'm not an expert on how to do things on the computer, so I'm scitish when it receives or sounds complicated. I don't want to lose my entire system because of these unfortenate none of the work programmes.

  Hello shessy49, welcome.

  I would recommend that we run a SFC (System File Checker) first scan to see what he finds. Try this:

  1. click on START
  2 type "msconfig" (without the quotes) and press enter
  3. go to the "Startup" tab and uncheck all the entries displayed
  4. click on 'Apply' at the bottom right
  5 restart your computer

  ---
  After the reboot
  ---

  1. click on START
  2. Type "cmd" (without the quotes). Right-click on the result at the top of the menu START and select 'run as administrator '.
  3. type "sfc/scannow" (without the quotes) and press enter

  If the question started very recently, you can try a system restore:

  1. click on START
  2. click on "all programs".
  3. click on "Accessories".
  4. click on "system tools."
  5. click on "system restore."

  6 follow the prompts shown to restore your system to a date before the problem started. Although the system restore does not target the personal data, it is recommended that you back up all data such as music, photos and documents in case something is not bad.

  Let us know what happens

• Update Windows XP SP3 on a Dual Boot System w/Vista

  Hello, I have a partition of windows xp and windows vista in my laptop Acer. (Pre-installed Vista and XP as a secondary operating system).
  My questions are:

  > Is it OK to upgrade Windows XP SP2 to SP3 of Windows even, it is placed in a dual boot?
  > Don't install SP3 will be erase all content of Windows XP?
  > Is affected the partition of Windows Vista if I download Windows XP SP3 of XP SP2 Partition?
  > If I download the SP3 for Windows XP in the Microsoft.com site, it needs to be bootable and recorded in a CD or just run the installer from the hard disk automatically after installation?

  Thanks to all in advance!

  You're off topic of the Forum, you have published, which is dedicated to the beta Version of Microsoft Security Esentials

  However, I moved the yoru post.

  You can update to SP3 on a system XPSP2 dual boot Vista residence. You can not install XP * after * Vista for a Dual Boot system unless you use a 3rd Boot Manager part.
  Run the update to SP3 does not erase anything, it updates the XP system components.
  There will be no impact to your Vista installation on your system to dual-boot PC.
  SP3 is an update. It downloads an installation program analyzes your installation of XP and downloads the bits necessary to update to SP3 then install them after you have saved the files it will replace. You should be able to get SP3 easily by going to Windows Update in XP.
