    Contact Symantec and either have their difficulty their mess or get your money back. Then take your computer to a true tech (do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) or backup your data and do a clean install of Windows/restore to factory State.

    I do not recommend the products Norton or Spyware Doctor. For antivirus, I like NOD32 (commercial), Avast (free version available), or Avira (free version available). For anti-spyware, you have Windows Defender already installed with Vista. I like to use the free version of Malwarebytes' Anti-malware and run it on demand every week.

  • user appdata problem

    I read an answer to fix a registry problem for "userappdata", but at the point when I OK to "show the hidden files and folders", I can't find where to go to find the 'properties' to complete the correction. Where can I find "Properties"?

    Please describe the fix and where you expect to find "real estate". To view the files/folders hidden in Vista, go to control panel > Folder Options > view and find the settings to show the files hidden and protected operating system files to it. Make the changes you want, apply/OK. 'Properties' are in it so I don't understand what you're trying to do. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

    I have 3 users on this system. Adobe works fine on 2 of them. $appdata % errorr occur on 2 to 3.

    If I use Acer ERecovery to reinstall/recover Windows, do I lose all the data?  I tried restoring the previous resotr point system and have not solved the problem. I've tired a few dates and returned finally to the oldest restore point and it did not fix the problems.
    My goal is to tet Vista works properly and have yet to save programs and data on the hard drive.
