Updated in starting up takes five minutes or more

Since when windows configures updates at startup to the top?

Hi doctor Z.

Some updates apply to files or services that Windows uses. These types of updates can't be installed while Windows is running so you should save your work, close all open programs, and then restart your computer to complete the update process.

Please let us know on what happened after that these updates have been installed on the computer.

I hope this helps!

  • The start-up takes 35 minutes after updates on April 9, 2013 (windows XP pro 32-bit)

    After you have installed windows XP pro updates on April 9, 2013 (or there abouts) my computer takes about 35 minutes to start (a 5 minutes before). During this time the CPU doesn't work between 0% - 1%. After about 35 minutes the CPU begins to work as usual. When to use system restore to go back to April 8, 2013 (IE before updates) the boot time goes back to normal. Starting time is normal when I boot in safe mode. I checked for viruses, etc. using malwarebytes and security: basic concepts and my system is clean. I also did chkdsk/r.

    How can I fix?

    Hello

    you have a report from trusteer installed on your computer?

    If so I suggest you try to uninstall it, reboot and see if it solves the problem.

    You see I've had exactly the same problems and symptoms on my windows xp machine after windows April updated as you describe.  It took me 6 days to find out, but uninstalling report seemed to solve the problem. (Report uninstallation was after installing the updates of windows, by the way).

    In fact to confirm it was the value I then installed the new version of the report and got exactly the same symptoms of slow start again.  Uninstalling report once more, turn the computer back to normal.

    so if you have reports uninstall it and see what happens, this is my opinion and I hope it helps.

    I contacted trusteer on this matter today, but they have not yet answer.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

    -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
    -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
    -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
    -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
    -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

  • My Dell Latitude D830 laptop takes 10 minutes or more to start. Any relay?

    A few months ago 3 Windows XP SP3 was taking too long to start. I then restored Windows to a previous Restore Point and it solves the problem.

    But I now downloaded and installed the latest Windows updates for my computer and he returned to long starting with white screen. (I use CCleaner and have only a handful of programs that run at startup).

    Some downloaded the software, I put on an external hard drive and sometimes install from there. (Not always enabled USB hard drive) Earlier today, that it would not install drivers for midi interface Roland UA100. Could this be something to do with the drivers 'unsigned '?

  • Firefox is running SLOOOOW. It takes five minutes to open a web page. IE works fine on the same computer. I tried everything in the troubleshooting guide,

    Windows XP, Service Pack 3, all latest updates made. Scanned for viruses and malware, ran CCleaner. Defragmented HD reset Firefox, uninstalled firefox & reinstalled. The only thing I didn't do is throw my user profile. I exported my bookmarks to an HTML file, so I can restore. Which will work?

    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 get full and unrestricted, access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    See:

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

  • Firefox takes a minute or more to open the pages.

    Hey,.
    Recently updated for Firefox 15, now all Web pages take at least 1 minute to load. However, there is no problem of the internet, it is really strange. For example, I'm going to open four different sites, they all say "Connecting to x" or "Waiting for x" and stay there just for a minute. After a while, they all load as usual at the same time. It's like Firefox has loaded the pages but just does not, as it happened once, I tried to reset the router to see if there was a mistake there and it even loaded the page after 1 minute, while there is no internet connection available.

    I tried - turning firewall off, antivirus, reinstall Firefox, restart the router and disabling the plugins. Other internet browsers work fine.

    Thank you

    Could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration to Firefox? Due to recent graphics drivers, more people have problems with this feature.

    You need to restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

    Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Options > advanced

    In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

    If you restart Firefox, the issue is resolved or at least improved?

  • Why my monitor decided to take 10 minutes or more to come to life after the pc turns on but works very well when it comes to life?

    Can someone explain and or offer a solution to this problem with my Windows XP Home Edition SP3 running on Compaq Presario AMD Athlon 64 Processor.
    The monitor displays briefly when the lit after turning on the pc but apparently goes "dead" for about 10 minutes then comes to life.

    Borrow a monitor from another computer and connect this monitor borrowed from yours, put your monitor on the computer that you have borrowed from the monitor.  That should tell you where the problem is quite quickly.  I bet that your monitor is dying and needs to be replaced, this test which will confirm.

  • Why my "Downloads" folder lasts more than five minutes to load? (Probably due by MSE)

    I have a very big downloads folder:
    5 419 files
    759 files
    30.0 GB

    I prefer to keep both as - is; However, recently it has started to take several minutes to load in Windows Explorer. Basically whenever I select the folder (either directly under my account user, either by a "Favorites" link), this green progress bar appears in the path box at the top... He continued slowly for a few minutes until what he finished. The real problem that is boring is that, while it is loading, I can't find (indexed), sort, or do anything. (The cursor shows that it is 'work'). In addition, it happens everytime I go in this directory!

    I'm pretty sure that the problem is with Microsoft Security Essentials. Under the resource monitor, subheading 'disc', dozens, or even hundreds of lines appear with the image of MsMpEng.exe (engine of Microsoft Security Essentials), probably one for each file in my downloads folder. In addition, I have confirmed that the problem disappears if I exclude this directory in MSE. However, I of course want to keep the downloads folder (which is probably the most important record to analyze new elements that I upload them!)

    Finally, I must point out that the column 'Date of access' is updated to the current date/time for about 1/3 of the files and all subfolders. I can't find a pattern for which files have their set "consulted" to date; However, none of these values are more than a month (although I certainly do not have access to many of these files for years.) (I.e. all my files are 'accessible' either immediately or in the past month.)

    Most likely, something to mark these files as 'dirty' every time - I access this folder, so pull up the re antivirus engine - check everything. Anyone know what could be the cause? Is that what I can do besides excluding this MSE folder?

    Thank you very much in advance for your help!
    MikeY

    So, how does it work if you uninstall MSE?

    You can allways then reinstall it

    UPDATE (29/07/2012) (SEE BELOW, NOT QUITE RESOLVED.  :()
    As expected, since excluding the 'downloads' folder of the MSE has worked, uninstall MSE also worked. However, I like MSE and want to analyze my downloads folder ;)
    UPDATE: I think I thought of her! In this case, I was running "Process Explorer" (Sysinternals) on Windows startup and pretty much all the time. Thinking that MSE could be analysis all programs that are running, I moved procexp.exe to another folder and set it at the start of this version.
    Once I did, MSE now allows me to open the file downloads without re - check everything.
    My life-lesson from this: If you run an executable file, make sure it is in a different directory other random files, otherwise MSE will constantly check their.
    Thanks for all your help!
    I will update this as "resolved" in a few days when I am sure that it really worked and it is not a chance.
    MikeY
    UPDATE (29/07/2012) :(
    Unfortunately, I see a few problems. First off, while moving ProcessExplorer for this directory he stopped the analysis of each file, each time, I opened the file, it always scans the first time I open the directory each tile. Only after waiting five minutes the first time I can then move freely in this directory. Of course, this is not ideal.

    I did some follow-up work on this:

    • I completely uninstalled MSE. Obviously, it worked. However, I then installed the antivirus NOD32. Guess what? It still freezes when opening the downloads folder! This time, instead of the hundreds of lines of "MsMpEng.exe" - billing in the resource monitor, I see hundreds of lines "ekrn.exe! (I.e., it does the same thing!)
    • I actually just moved into a new downloads folder. I found that can be summed up these kinds of folder names. (I.e., I was able to have a new folder that is displayed when I select "[UserName] / downloads.") In other words, when you download things, it appears exactly the same thing, I'm just getting started with a new directory. However, even if the library and the user subpath now point to the new folder, I change not the absolute path to my old files directory. This way I can keep the countless maps/executable shortcuts, etc. in this mega-file.

    I still think I've hit on something fundamental here. I hope I've learned why I'm causing AV systems across this large number of files, hay son as he shouldn't be testing of thousands of files that haven't changed.

    Thanks again!

    Hello

    If the same behavior appears in copying autonomous

    Even though the USB cable is disconnected, so the computer is without impact on the device and not related to the problem

    By the information provided, the problem is with your printer hardware

    However, make sure that your cartridges are without impact on your printer

    Make sure the expirations of ink did not both for black and color, as well, try to isolate the problem and check if cartridges it may as follows

    Remove the color cartridge and try to print from the computer

    Now repeat the same thing with black ink only

    If the problem occurs with a specific cartridge only, replace the cartridge.

    If the same behavior is displayed for either of these tests, I suggest you try a different power outlet. If there is no change yet, contact the HP call center in your area, in an attempt to reset your device.

    It is our last chance, otherwise it will repair the product
