• PROTECTION OF FILES WINDOWS WITH THE SFC / SCANNOW

  What I received for the initial mistake of the window File Protection:

  uninstalled also 2 programs McAfee that had been installed earlier.

  I did exactly what was suggested. I ran sfc / scannow using RUN with my running w SP2 cd, but as scannow was running, he kept asking:

  Files that are required for Windows to run correctly must be copied into the DLL Cache.

  Insert your Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 disc now.

  Choices: Retry more information Cancel

  PROBLEM: Service Pack 3 has been a WINDOWS UPDATE DOWNLOAD.

  What should I do now?

  Do not answer my own question, but that should I or can I just uninstall Service Pack 3, which was an update of Windows and then run sfc/scannow with my original cd.

  and also I saw this posted.  Should I worry about the warning below?

  To uninstall SP3

  1. Click Start and then click Control Panel.

  2. Click on Add / Remove Programs, click Windows XP Service Pack 3, and then click on remove.

  3. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen.

  Warning

  If you choose to uninstall SP3, a dialog box displays a list of programs you installed after you installed the SP3. If you continue, it may be that these programs do not work correctly.

  SHOULD I WORRY ABOUT THIS WARNING? STEP BY STEP SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE HELPFUL.

  Do not uninstall the service pack 3.

  Do not follow the instructions to use sfc/scannow.  99.999% of the time, it is a waste of time and will probably result just to generate accurate error you saw.

  Are these error messages generated spontaneously or only when you run sfc/scannow?

  Why do you run sfc/scannow in the first place?

  If you receive these errors without running sfc/scannow, follow the instructions given by Jose Ibarra in your original post.  In other words, look in the event viewer and see what file is being complained about.  Display the names of files in your response.

  "Slipstreaming" - that Jose correctly tells you to do so - is the process of combining a downloaded XP service pack 3 with your original XP SP2 CD to get service XP pack 3 CD - what sfc/scannow will like better.

  You must have access to a CD burner.  All the necessary software can be obtained free of charge on the Internet.   If you have a CD burner, there are many sites with directions.  These are just two of them:

  It's one of those 'things' in Microsoft operting systems.

  When you want to run sfc/scannow now, you need to run in "elevated command prompt."

  Follow these steps:

  Start button > in the search box, type cmd > turn worms at the top on the left, right-click on cmd.exe > click on Run As Administrator > now that you're in "elevated command prompt" > at the flashing prompt enter sfc/scannow > enter key.

• For some reason any all the items on the left side of the start menu open to media player, I have tried earlier to get videos to play. And it doesn't let me do system restore

• How do repopulate you the Start/Programs tab after a windows xp recovery virus attack

  After having used StopZilla to remove malware everyhthing seems to work ok except for repopulating the START/PROGRAMS.  Looking for help to get all my programs listed under programs.

  Hello

  ·         What operating system is installed on your system?

  If you are using Windows XP and programs are not listed when you click Start, and then you can perform the scan SFC to solve the problem.

  SFC/scannow is a very useful command that you can use in any version of Windows. When the SFC (System File Checker) command is used with the/scannow switch, the tool analyzes all the important files of Windows on your computer and replace if necessary.

  Missing and the corruption of the operating system (like many DLLs) files are probably the main cause of the major problems of Windows. In view of this, plus the fact that the SFC /scannnow is completely automatic and very easy to use, the tool should be usually one of your top not troubleshooting.

  I ran sfc/scannow, and the result read that some files cannot be repaired. I installed my Vista installation disc but the upgrade is disabled. I think that the upgrade is disabled because the latest version of Vista running on my laptop is at a higher level than the installation disc, so the only option is Vista, back to the factory.
