What is a part of Windows 7? ETDCtrl.exe

I got an alert will appear on the start saying:-C:\Program Files\Elantech\ETDCtrl.exe

"This application has requested execution to terminate in an unusual way."

I have not installed this software and the site of momentum (which seems to be associated with defence) is not much help and concern described their caterpillars software/key logger.

Some CNet users think that this may be an essential part of the Windows 7 operating system. Anyone know if it is? Can I uninstall but not Windows 7 to malfunction if I do.

Someone at - it experience this? Thank you

Hi Roland

I think Thomas is correct.

Manufacturers of momentum a Touchpad, called the Smartpad for laptops. It is installed on some Asus laptops.

    Looks like you had a meeting with the FBI MoneyPack (Ransomware) malicious software.  Fact that all sounds familiar (FBI, your PC is locked, you need to pay your fine, etc.).

    You must first perform some scanners from reputable and do what they can do, but sometimes leave you with a fake startup item that you must manually remove using something like Autoruns.

    No matter what you use for protection against malware, perform the following analyses for malware, then correct any problems:

    Download, install, update and do a quick scan with these free malware detection programs (not at the same time):

    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

    SAS will probably report a lot of tracking cookies and you can just let him delete them.

    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

    The scans by operating clean, restart, and then fix any problems.

    If you still receive the message, delete the element of persistent starting using Autoruns.

    Here's how:

    A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading... ". "or"specific module could not be found"message at startup is usually related to the malware that has been configured to run at startup, but the referenced file has been removed after a malware scan, leaving behind him a startup item or the registry entry pointing to a file that does not exist.
    It might be a removal of malicious software or an application not installed.  The entry may have a curious looking name since it was probably generated at random when the malware was installed. If you search your system for the referenced file, you may not find.
    Windows attempts to load this file but cannot locate because the file has been deleted for most probably during an analysis of the malware. However, an orphaned associate of remainders of startup parameter or registry entry and tells Windows to load the file when you start or connection.
    So you should delete the referenced entry Windows stop trying to load or run the file. It may or may not be included in the registry, but you can find it.  Autoruns (see below) you get the elements no matter where it is.

    You must be sure to solve the problem and not just fix the symptom of the problem by simply relieving your message - system is not a fix (there is a difference).

    If you just locate and uncheck the item in msconfig, which disables the element but does not remove the reference to the element of false starting your computer.   The msconfig program is not a Startup Manager, that's a troubleshooting tool.  Disabling things in msconfig to put an end to the messages and think that your problem is solved is short-sighted and leave behind him a sloppy XP configuration.  Just disable the display of a start-up error message should not count as a 'solution' to the problem.
    If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can find and remove the reference directly from there or remove it using a popular third-party tool called Autoruns.  The problem can always be found in the registry well.
    Before making any changes to your registry by hand or with third-party tools, don't forget to first make a backup of the registry. There is no cancellation or exit without saving the option in regedit.
    Here is a link to a popular registry backup tool:
    You can also use the Autoruns to find the element of start remains little matter where he's hiding.  Autoruns does not install anything on your computer.  It will display all startup locations where the reference may be then you can turn it off or remove it completely.  Here is the download link for Autoruns:
    Run Autoruns.exe and wait that he at the end of the filling of the list of entries.
    When the Autoruns is finished scanning your system, it will say "Ready" in the lower left corner.  Autoruns can be a little intimidating to first if you have never seen it before because it displays a lot of information
    .  You are really interested only a few sections.
    The problem is usually to start the system or the user startup entries, then click the connection tab and see if the startup item is there.
    Scroll through the list and look for a boot entry associated files in the error message.
    If you can't find on the connection tab, look in any tab.
    You can also click file, search to search for logon, or any tab for all or part of the name of the element.
    Right-click on the offending entry and choose Remove.  If you are not sure what it is, you can simply turn off (uncheck the entry), reboot, and if the problem is resolved and things work normally and everything works fine, then delete the offending entry.  If you don't see it in Autoruns, you may edit the registry and remove the item from your startup folder it.  Autoruns shall display the same information however.
  • What is error code--c:\windows\ipajahoz.dll

    I have a Dell with windows xp. What is error code--c:\WINDOWS\ipajahoz.dll?

    It is sometimes easy to get rid of the error message by doing something like disable the startup item in msconfig (if you can still find), but I suggest you fix the problem and difficulty not only the symptom of the problem by simply deleting the startup message.
    I would also not recommend you start digging in the registry to try to find the startup item and remove it unless you have a backup of your system or at least a backup of your registry, because there is no 'Cancel' or 'quit without saving changes' option in regedit.  If you make a mistake, that's all.
    These ideas relieve 'rapid' and sometimes risky of the symptom if they not even work at all, but they can't actually solve the problem.  Also, I'd be suspicious of ideas that begin with the words "try."  You don't need to try things, you need to fix things.  You don't need to try ideas that might work, you must do something that will always work all the time.
    Here are the detailed instructions that protect you and solve your problem in the 'right' way.
    There is very little. DLL files that should be loaded from the C:\WINDOWS folder and is not one of them.  If you do not have a good explanation for the name of the file in a Google search, the chances are good that your system is currently or has been infected by malware.
    A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading...

    Everything that is installed as part of Windows 7 is there for a reason. You can disable and customize many features, but you should really leave it as it is, especially if you don't know what you're doing. You might accidentally delete something you shouldn't.

  • Re: What is the part number?

    Hello people...

    I was wondering what the part number is suppose to say? Does this affect the specification of your laptop to another? for example, I have this laptop [Satellite A300 - 1 G 5 | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 1055589]. As you can see from the link, the laptop displays a part number: PSAG4E-_ * 03801 MG 3 * _. On my laptop cover, the label of the model is identical to the first part, but different on the second, its written like this: PSAG4E-_ * 03801HAR * _, have you noticed the difference? How important is this difference?

    I'll explain why Im concerned about it once I get a clarification on what means the part number... Thank you

    Hello Poison

    AFAIK, part number is a kind of identification number. Each laptop model is available with several different hardware configurations and different hardware components.

    Your Satellite A300 has PSAG4E model number. MU by Satellite A300 has PSAG8E part number.
    When you visit the Toshiba download page, where you can choose model right after the part number. Drivers available for your PSAG4E probably won't be the same as for my PSAG8E.

    I don't know what the difference is, but maybe my laptop model has other graphics card, the sound card or the card wireless network may be. This part of the part number is important to you.
    Other numbers behind this first part of the part number is depending on the country and it is absolutely irrelevant for you.

    So, what's your concern?

    Hi all

    I bought the new computer hp laptop g62 and OS is win7 64 bit and RAM is 4 GB.

    What version of 32-bit windows support on HP G62-144DX laptop?

    I try install win xp 32-bit, but some occued to error when I did install using boot DVD (blue screen!).

    Also I can't win xp 32-bit version could support 4 GB of RAM.

    Hello

    Mr President, Oracle 10 g does not support Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit)...

    You must get the works of Oracle 11 g on Windows 7 64-bit and 32-bit... (or any newer version of Oracle)

    If you have Windows Home Premium 64-bit, you can fresh install Windows Home Premium 32 bit & use the product key at the bottom of your laptop computer to activate Windows 7 using automated phone support...

    Windows 7 32 bit can be installed if the size of the RAM is more than 3 GB, but it will be 3.2 GB use only...

    Windows 95/98

    Hello

    I currently have an Apple. There are a few games, I used to play (i.e. Rollercoaster Tycoon) which are mainly Windows 95/98.

    I have considered buying a less expensive to play PC. What I have to buy windows 95/98 or y at - it a newer version which will still play older games?

    I read a blog that says Windows 8 would not work with most, but perhaps Windows 7. I tried many different ways to play games on the Apple and in some cases, I can play them, but it will eventually stopped my computer during registration or something of that kind.

    Any suggestions? Of course, a suggestion at low cost is nice instead of buying a new computer.

    Good luck finding a windows 95 or 98.

    You'll have to do some research on Google or in the game forums to see what o/s these games could work. But I wouldn't count on much of this old games.

  • What is the difference between Windows Web Server VS. Windows 7 with IIS

    What is the difference between Windows Web Server VS. Windows 7 with IIS

    Hello

    Your question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for Windows Server on TechNet Forum. Please post your question in the TechNet Forums Windows Server général.

  • With Windows XP Professional X 64 expire, what is the replacement? Windows 8 not compatible.

    With Windows XP Professional X 64 expire, what is the replacement? Windows 8 not compatible.

    With Windows XP Professional X 64 expire, what is the replacement? Windows 8 not compatible.

    Windows XP 64-bit is one of those odd elements that does not quite fit in.  It is based on the code of Windows Server (hence why it only goes back to the SP2 not SP3 as Windows XP did) so it is - upgrade (for purchase in any case) options are limited.  Frankly - Windows XP 64-bit is one of these products, most people should have just skipped (in my opinion) - and with this in mind - the replacement for those running it should be to get Windows Vista 64 bit or Windows 7 64-bit or 64-bit Windows 8.  It there just will be no discount to do on monetary incentive plan.

    My suggestion - if your system is good enough, compatible, etc. and you actually * needed * to upgrade (it's not like YOU all just because Microsoft will stop their support extended to it in 2014 - big deal?)  Download Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and clean install.  You can use the free Windows XP (32 bit) MOU to run many older programs, you have * if * you have one that cannot be run under Windows 7 or with the compatibility mode.
     
    In addition - get an unknown computer (for you).  You can find a lease one or something with Windows 7 64-bit, probably for the same amount you'd pay for a version non - OEM Windows 7, pay a little more and you'll probably have a machine that could handle Windows 8 - If you wish.  ;-)

  • Could you give me a list of what is safe to delete Windows XP?

    Could you give me a list of what is safe to delete Windows XP?

    This isn't a list of "programs".  This is a list of files and folders which many (more?) are Windows system files that should not be deleted.

    You can Google these names as easily as possible, although some names are completely ambiguous without the rest of the way - for example, _default and configuration could be anything. Panther looks like it is related to your Mac.

    You must uninstall programs ONLY by using the control panel > add / remove software.  Do not delete random files and folders.

    Download and run JDiskReport... and then you can see what's worth worrying in terms of size.

    If your Windows system is running slowly, it is quite possible that you have been infected by malicious software.  What antivirus application on side Windows do you use?  His subscription is up to date? The subscription has already lapsed?
