• How to remove old computers outside the network

  renamed my computer on the network, and now the former name and the new name are visible in 'network '.
  Of course I can only access my last 'name', but how can I remove the old computer?

  Hi ninjahomy,

  Thank you for using Microsoft Windows forum.

  Your computer is on the field ?

  If it's on the field , then get in touch with: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/category/w7itpro, windowsvistaitpro, windowsxpitpro /

  If this is not the case, there are 3 methods to remove it.

  Method 1:

  You can remove the old power off computers network on your router/modem, which will have a list of home computers > Home Network > Display Devices. Hit the set up on this screen allows you to delete the old computers from the list.

  Method 2:

  Another method to try is to clear the DNS cache:

  1. click on start

  2. open the administrator mode command prompt and type "ipconfig/flushdns", and restart.

  Method 3:

  Have you tried to reboot server from a cold start? Cold start
  turned off, unplugged, power cable means not only the computer switch
  off, for at least 30 seconds, a minute or more is better.

  All computers OFF, removal of tension (pull the plug if you have to; not of power
  depend on the power switch; It's not always really 'off').

  Wait 30 seconds or more. Turn on the server machine. Let boot completely.

  Then:
  
  Do a restart of the server computer, you just start. It's just insurance,
  sort of a fail-safe action.

  Now power on other machines. the list has to rebuild properly.
  EMI at least.

  If you have problems with GROUPS, I think that can be deleted. Or
  renamed, all that is necessary. Remember, each machine needs a group and the
  the same group, to include IN a group.

  HTH
  Pop'

  This list should be be rebuilt every time that the computer starts, if if
  There is nothing here to identify the missing machines, they should not be
  display upwards.

  Hope this has helped

  Hello is anyone here! I need to buy adobe photoshop and illustrator, but I want to pay all at once, is the annual one should I choose? pre paid? Can I choose a less expensive option because I can't really afford it. I was also wondering if I could buy or install an older version of this program on my Mac from Yosemite, because I need it urgent. Thank you

  Subscription plans are your least expensive option on an annual basis, but do not continue to pay each year in order to continue using them.  The alternative is to buy CS6 which is much more costly in terms of what you pay in the year (day).,... almost all of the costs.

  Buy CS6:

• I also want to keep my old version of the EP

• My computer guard direct me to the Windows Startup Repair loop. Is this a virus? If this is not the case, what should I do?

  OK, here's a little history:
  When was surfing the Internet (using Mozilla Firefox), he froze and said that he "did not." Then I left the computer alone for a good 15 minutes, but to realize that nothing happened. From there, I decided to disconnect the computer to see if I can re - open Firefox. But when I tried to connect it back, the computer take me on the desk. It was stuck at the screen that says 'Welcome' (the form that appears after clicking on your user name) in the end, I turned off the computer by holding the power button, because there was nothing I could do. When I turned on the computer a few minutes later, it was time that I met a huge problem.

  The problem:
  When I turned it back on, a black screen appears that gives you the ability to boot your system with a repair on your computer, or start normally. I chose "start normally. After that, it took me a blue screen with a window that says "Startup Repair". He began to scan the computer saying «attempted repairs...» "When I saw this, I turned immediately shut down the computer, thinking it was some sort of virus that pretends to fix the computer. Nevertheless, I decided to turn it on for the second time. Of course, it's the same thing. But this time, I allow the scanning process to complete. When it was over, he said that the system could not be repaired and advised me to contact Microsoft, with my "contact information." I took this as a red flag, and click Cancel. I suspected it was an attempt to identity theft. (Though, I could be wrong, of course.)

  Honestly, I don't know if if there is indeed something wrong with the computer or if it's a virus.

  I tried to find out by going online and looking for solutions. From there, I tried a method where you press F8 several times until the Advanced Boot Options go up and selected "Last known Configuration" that did not work. I also heard on the "chkdsk" method, but I don't know how to do and there is no guarantee this will work.

  After that, I did more research and realized there were several ways to solve this problem. But when I went through the tutorials, the steps have been very confusing to me. I felt like most of these tutorials aimed computer technicians or people who knew in fixing computers. The steps were so confused until I found myself referring more questions than real answers!

  So now I'm reaching out to help, and I really need! It would be greatly appreciated! I really don't want to format all my data.

  Please keep in mind that I am a lover of computers operating. The two programs I normally use are Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Word. So please don't be assuming that I know my way in and out of a computer. I'm no where near, in every sense of the term, an 'Expert '. If you can, I would like a simple, easy to follow, simple tutorial, step by step, which is not turned to professional users. Still, I am not very competent in operating computers.
  

  Hello

  You have tried yet.

  Scan of Malware in Safe Mode with network.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-start-Windows-in-safe-mode/#Vista

  Windows Vista

  Using the F8 method:

  1. Restart your computer.
  2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap the F8 key repeatedly until you are presented with the Boot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
  3. Select the Safe Mode with networking with the arrow keys.
  4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
  5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
  6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.

  Once in Safe Mode with network, download and run RKill.

  RKill does NOT remove the malware; It stops the Malware process that gives you a chance to remove it with your security programs.

  Then, download, install, update and scan your system with the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware in Mode safe mode with networking:
