viruses or corrupted files?

First, I searched many forums and none of the fixes work so far. Yesterday, I used the Add/Remove function to only remove stuff, I thought that I was not relaxing, restarted and no bar tasks or icons, wallpaper manager and just tasks. Nothing on right click, msg saying explore has a problem and needs to close whenever I connect to my office and also the same msg when I try to type explorer.exe in the box. I used safe mode and the same results. The Task Manager, internet and all programs continue to operate normally.

In safe mode, I signed on a second desktop, not the main (had no office) and I tried the trick where I typed in cmd then sfc/scannow. My icons on this desk came immediately and continue to work normally. No change on my main desktop, tried it in normal mode and safe.

Strange thing - I tried to run my antivirus AVG (cannot afford the paid kind) and it does not work on the empty desk. I downloaded another type (before, I think it is called) and he tells me I have to recharge it, it cannot open) none of the antivirus programs running on white top. But AVG works well on office work and tells me that there is no virus. Also ran malwarebytes and it took just 3 things, no change.

I tried something that I read that said to change explore explorer1 - can't remember which way that took, but I tried and no results. Also, I ran something where I typed in the MRT and a microsoft program ran saying no malicious software detected.

It is about this - someone ' an at - it a suggestion? I don't really want to wipe all out and reload windows, too many things I'm too lazy to back up.

Thanks, Mathieu

Hi Regis,

You can try a Startup Repair:

It is very similar to the SFC, but it might be useful.

  • Error codes & corrupt files

    Hi, can you please help. I have problems with the installation of the updates and software on my laptop: -.

    updated Windows, I get the error code 80200053,
    Microsoft Security Essentials updates, I get the error code 0 x 80240022 (it is a new installation but have not been able to run as unable to update with all definitions)
    Installation of Windows Live Messenger and Mail, I get error code hr:0x8007000d

    I restored my laptop to factory default, but the problem has not been fixed. I still have the same problem but also, I'm unable to download programs such as Java or AVG (before I tried MSE), I get messages affecting either corrupted files or editors unknown/certificates. I have had these problems for more than a week now, actually both my laptop and my desktop partners have the same problems.

    After spending hours searching these forums, I found another user who seems to have the same problems as me and monitoring of the solution developed for example disk cleanup; SFC.exe then checkdisk but the problems have not been resolved. The log of the SFC.exe suggested that some corrupt files could not be repaired and I looked at the results, but to be honest I have no idea what to do about it. The result of checkdisk returned clean well.

    We managed to get a copy of AVG from a CD and run a full scan on the laptop and desktop and no viruses have been detected. The only items listed were cookies of track that have been removed or repaired and 2 items on my laptop Advisor broken digital certificates.

    Can you please help me with this, I don't know what else to do to solve this problem?

    Rob,

    Sincerely appreciate the info/advice.  I ran sfc/scannow and cropped the results to include only the unable to complete sections.  OK portions have been eliminated for practical reasons.  PC is a Vista PC with SP2 and all updates.  The antivirus program is run several times a week and has identified no virus/spyware/malware.  No other real problems with PC.

    (A) we need to participate in this farce of a game or can simply be ignored without affecting

    legitimate operation/functions of the PC?  When close or restart, we get the error message

    0 x 0000142 failed to initialize properly... Other PC functions seem to work well.

    (B) is there a way to clean up the waste of space games so that would solve the problem

    without affecting the performance of the PC? (When try to remove the game worthless hoax,)

    It will not remove them). I know that some of the files 'source' for waste games

    missing.  Since NONE of them will ever by used, is there a reason to worry?

    HI Margaret,

    Thank you for your message.

    Looks like you have a virus or malware causing corruption.

    I suggest to update your Kaspersky Anti-virus definitions and run a full scan of the system.

    Also, make sure here's you have the Vista disc in the drive when you run SFC, where it gets the correct file information.

    Alternatively, you can try to perform a clean boot before you attempt to run SFC, to see if a startup program may conflict with it:

  • went to the command and put in findstr/c: "[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log &#62; sfcdetails.txt to find the corrupted file and nothing happened

    I had a problem with my laptop. I let a friend use it and she got a virus. The screen is black. She took it to get fixed. When she returned I couldn't open some files. (Always have this problem with some files) my shortcut icons are no longer there. Then I get this message on the Catalyst Control Center does not work. In any case, I did a scan and he told me that I had corrupted in my cbs log files so I tried to do the command findstr/c: "[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > sfcdetails.txt to find the corrupted file and nothing happened. Help!

    Hello

    Departure - in the search box, type-> order

    at the top of the list to find COMMAND - CLICK RIGHT to it - RUN AS ADMIN

    Type the following commands (or copy and paste one at a time), each followed by pressing on enter.

    ipconfig/flushdns

    nbtstat-r

    nbtstat - RR

    netsh int Reinitialis

    netsh int ip reset

    netsh winsock reset

    RESET

    That resets your TCP/IP stack

    For settings.ini as this article sets out the question may be totally ignored.

    The SFC.exe command reports Settings.ini file errors in the CBS.log file after that you add gadgets
    for the Sidebar of Windows Vista by using the Sysprep tool and an Autounattend.xml file.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947595

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    These errors only are in the settings.ini for the sidebar and are not a serious problem by all means.

    Close the sidebar for that.

    Something else for the settings.ini - run AutoRuns and look at the entries SideBar Gadget - y at - it
    all pointing to is no longer present as temp files or uninstalled gadgets or not running?
    Those who will reflect the "yellow icons" on the left side and the files/folders will not exist. If so just
    Click on it and delete - Reboot. This may correct the errors that you see.

    Autoruns - free - see what programs are configured so that it starts automatically when your system
    boots and you login. Autoruns shows you the full list of registry and file locations where
    applications can configure Auto-start settings.
    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
    -------------------------------

    Another process to try is to remove everything except a gadget - everything what you think is the most simple, that you use.
    Maybe the calendar. Then RESTART - use another simple gadget, and delete the first class used
    -RESTART again. See if that helps.

    Rarely, the error causing the problem with the sidebar and not not affect the system in general.

    The SFC.exe command reports Settings.ini file errors in the CBS.log file after that you add gadgets to
    the Sidebar of Windows Vista by using the Sysprep tool and an Autounattend.xml file.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947595

    -------------------------------

    Another method to try with the SideBar works does not is to copy the Settings.ini to another folder and
    and then delete - then start sidebar.

    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Hello, I am working with a laptop Dell Inspiron 1720.  Operating system is Vista SP2.  Got the black screen of death on the desktop and can not use Windows Explorer or configuration panel.  A ran CHKDSK, which does nothing to solve the problem.  Then ran SFC Scan with command prompt Admin, it stops at 68% indicating that tour corrupted files Windows and cannot fix them.  System Restore has 4 available dates too, but I get an error for all 4 code dates 0x800423F3.  I called Dell, they said that they suspected a virus even if the computer is running Microsoft Security Essentials, updated virus definitions & analysis each week.  I am at one loss for what else to do, Microsoft don't think it's the virus, Dell, and both want to charge their famous contribution.  Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated as a complete reformat is really, really not an option at this time.  Thank you

    Original title: Windows 64 c

    Windows 64 c says I have corrupted files, if I can't restore my laptop to an earlier date. What should I do?

    Hello

    Run the sfc/scannow command.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

    Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
    2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
      sfc/scannow

      The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions

    If SFC detects the main problems it can't fix you may need to borrow a Microsoft dvd vista not an acer, HP etc. recovery disk and do a repair installation

  • How to remove all corrupted files and Roxio?

    New problem since the last automatic download of an update to my Windows Vista:

    On Windows Vista, whenever I start a program, I get the error message ' (programname) .exe - damaged file. " The file or the directory c:\program files\common Roxio shared is damaged and unreadable. Please run the chkdsk utility. »

    I have run checkdisk repeatedly, but always the same error message every time that any program starts.

    I tried to uninstall all the subprogrammes of Roxio in this folder, but the "uninstall" program would not do that.

    I also tried to reinstall Roxio of CD disc programs and Vista wouldn't let me do it anymore.

    My other programs all work perfectly, so I take it that it is not the executable file for these various programs that is corrupt, only the one Roxio.

    The MacAfee program tells me that I have no virus it can see.

  • When removing malware, damaged or corrupt files?

    I have a microsoft technology removes the fake Vista Total Security 2011 on my computer.  Then my IE wouldn't load and I couldn't get a satisfactory answer (on Sunday).  I reinstalled my windows vista operating system and had to reload everything from scratch.  All my previous files are in a file called windows.old.  Question: If I transfer files from windows.old in these circumstances, will be corrupted files?  I want to transfer my files from windows.old MP3 music.  I am also risk reinfecting my system with a virus if I do this?

    I don't know that other answers exactly answered your 2 questions so:

    When the malware is removed, it is possible that the files could be damaged or corrupt, but only occur if malicious software has infected these specific files, so in the process of getting rid of the malware, the AV program is perhaps not able to distinguish malware from the original file, so it could just delete the entire file and then you would have problems because the file is now missing.

    Unless the MP3 files became infected, it shouldn't be a problem to copy. However, as Steve has said it's a good idea to get a good AV like MSE realtime and an additional scanner for all what MSE doesn't pick up, like Malwarebytes. If you use both to analyze the Windows.old folder before copying anything, this would significantly reduce the risk of infection of your new installation.

  • Error codes & corrupt file problems

    Hi, can you please help. I have problems with the installation of the updates and software on my laptop: -.

    updated Windows, I get the error code 80200053,
    Microsoft Security Essentials updates, I get the error code 0 x 80240022 (it is a new installation but have not been able to run as unable to update with all definitions)
    Installation of Windows Live Messenger and Mail, I get error code hr:0x8007000d

    I restored my laptop to factory default, but the problem has not been fixed. I still have the same problem but also, I'm unable to download programs such as Java or AVG (before I tried MSE), I get messages affecting either corrupted files or editors unknown/certificates. I have had these problems for more than a week now, actually both my laptop and my desktop partners have the same problems.

    After spending hours searching these forums, I found another user who seems to have the same problems as me and monitoring of the solution developed for example disk cleanup; SFC.exe then checkdisk but the problems have not been resolved. The log of the SFC.exe suggested that some corrupt files could not be repaired and I looked at the results, but to be honest I have no idea what to do about it. The result of checkdisk returned clean well.

    We managed to get a copy of AVG from a CD and run a full scan on the laptop and desktop and no viruses have been detected. The only items listed were cookies of track that have been removed or repaired and 2 items on my laptop Advisor broken digital certificates.

    Can you please help me with this, I don't know what else to do to solve this problem?

    Hello

    What antivirus/antispyware/security products do you have on the machine? Be one you ALREADY had on this
    machine, including those you have uninstalled (they leave leftovers behind which can cause strange problems).

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    Part of the problem is probably SpyBot which can greatly affect the peformance IE and Vista/Windows 7.

    Start - type in the search box-> find Services at top - click right on - RUN AS ADMIN

    Double-click Service SBSD and change it to MANUAL and STOP

    Then run SpyBot and in settings uncheck TeaTimer - close and restart.

    Now you can run SpyBot as a scanner at the request.

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    Then, run checkdisk - schedule it to run at next boot, then apply OK your way out, then restart.

    These programs are known to corrupt big files pushed, which is what you download, even if the file has the extension ".exe".

    Disable the antivirus and then download the files, start the virus scanner and try to install.

    Another way would be to download the installation program generic Erich you will get files zip or jar files which you can test before you begin the installation.

  • DSC RX 100 randomly corrupt files

    I got this camera for a little over a month now. This issue was initially due to a faulty SD micro I used. Having recently purchased a Sandisk 64 GB SDXC card from Best Buy, it seemed as if the problem was more with.
    Before going further: the SDXC card has been formatted in the camera.

    I recorded a performance by "majors" dance to my college so the choreographers would have a DVD of the live show. It was a performance of two nights. The first night, I tried the first record set half of the show until intermission in a video. Something was wrong; I don't know if I slipped and press the key to cancel registration or if the camera has just decided to stop recording. Because the recording is stopped during a show, I had to remove the part of this performance. Registration which has been the duration of 20 minutes was also well visible and legible on the camera so I thought I'd just remove the performance that has been interrupted.

    Within 48 hours of the performance, I copied the files on two different computers and an external HARD drive. When I had the time of video editing and try to put them together, the record of 20 minutes has been altered. He was more visible/playable on the camera, or on all systems, I had copied to.

    Out of more than thirty recordings (15 + of actual performance, new sockets that the faulty card corrupted and test students practice days records) both registration of 20 minutes and the brief pursuit of the piece that was interrupted during filming even have been corrupted. The worst is that I contracted to record this event for a fee.

    The attempt to recover bad sectors on the map did not help and even reduce the file size of corrupted files.

    Given that the card I used was brand new, formatted in the camera and 90% of all the records recorded so far, I can only come to the conclusion that there is something faulty with the camera itself whether the particular one I or RX100 all.

    Can someone tell me when could have wrong here?
    Does anyone else have this problem?
    Once AGAIN: the card has been FORMATTED in the CAMERA.

    Thank you for reading this and any thoughts on the subject.

    It is possible that the file corruption is related to the first time that you have copied the on a computer. If you notice, the file has been corrupted after that you copied the courses to various destinations. The file may be damaged if:

    • the file has been changed and the changes have been saved on the card itself;
    • the file has been moved to a different location.
    • the name of the file has been modified;
    • the memory card was fired while the access indicator is lit.
    • the card / camera was not properly ejected from the computer.

    In addition, any virus or malicious software that could have infected the card may corrupt the files.

    Given that these are important images, you should consider having the video files recovered professionally. You can visit the Sony Media Services for more information on this subject.
