What is this directory '12ac49c6e7c8e9ab770d35 '.
I have several directories in the root directory with weird titles like "12ac49c6e7c8e9ab770d35". Can I just delete them?
They could be the remains of run the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool.
See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=890830
Excerpt:
How to remove the malicious software removal tool
The malicious software removal tool does not use an installer. As a general rule, when you run the malicious software removal tool, it creates a temporary directory named at random on the root of the drive of the computer. This directory contains several files, and it includes the Mrtstub.exe file. Most of the time, this folder is automatically deleted after the tool to the end of execution or the next time that you start the computer. However, this folder may not always be automatically deleted. In these cases, you can manually delete this file, and this has no adverse effect on the computer.

What is this page?-opening care
I have used Firefox for a long time, and I know going well in 'Options' and customize my home page to open every time I open FF or even a new tab. But lately I get an annoying page that says in the top right corner ' what's this page? In addition, the search engine on this page works again - when I click on search, nothing happens. I have to click the home button to get my home page every time. Boring. Any suggestions or corrections to this problem?
You can check for problems with preferences.
Delete possible user.js and files numbered prefs-# .js and rename (or delete) the file prefs.js to reset all the prefs by default, including the prefs set via user.js and pref which is no longer supported in the current version of Firefox.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

Hi, I tried to update my iTunes a day and when he made an error appeared. Now, today I uninstalled both iTunes & Quicktime, I don't remember what the first said (before finding out the programs were installed yet) but after I went back uninstalled them I tried to reinstall again (in the hope that it would work) and this message popped up.
The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files\Quick Time\QTSystem. The installation cannot continue. Log in as administrator or contact your system administrator.
* I'm already logged as administrator.
Could you please help me understand what the problem is? Thank you!

Hi my dear, I have installation error message saying "error 1310.Error writing to file:C:\Program files (x 86) \Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat\AMT\AAM\P7\ZS\ro_RO\StringTable.xml.» Make sure you have access to this directory.
My PC is Windows 7 and tries to install the free trial version Adobe Acrobat DC.
The directory, the error message mentioned is read-only and created by the installer, I guess.
What is the problem with that?
Thank you

Adobe Error 1303. The installer has sufficient privileges to access this directory:
Adobe Error 1303. The installer has sufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Programs Files (x 86) \Common Files\Adobe\ARM\1.0 when you try to update Adobe Reader 10.01 on a Windows 7, 64-bit machine. What I found is that once I have let Adobe Updater download updates, the 1.0 folder is created under the ARM. As long as I don't start the update, I can access this folder. Once housing starts to update, if I try to access this folder I get an access denied message and the installation is defective with the 1303 error message. I tried to make me the owner of the folder, try KB947821 running, turned off the firewall and close UAC, none of them running. My guess is that there is a problem with the update itself changing the security.
Someone has other ideas beyond to wait for the next update, that will hopefully work better than this one?
Thank you!

I am a newbie with iMovie 10.1.2. In the middle of the picture below, what is this red arrow and the small icon (maybe an icon for a clip?)? I have no idea how it got there, its uses, its meaning or how to get rid of. (Small stays icon where you see, with the red arrow as if it is attached to the arrow). The red arrow behaves more or less like a slider. If I move it to the playback head, he likes with the playhead. Unless the reading head is in the gap between the clips. Then it can be moved elsewhere. Very strange. Thank you
It's the slider you see when pressing the R key to select a range in a clip. The arrow is red until you move it over a clip and then change to black. It should move with the skimmer. You see this continuously even when not having not touch R? If the restart if iMovie should erase.

Hi guys,.
I clean my hard drive for space I wonder what is this file? It is grayed out so I can't click on it.
No mud round in system folders unless you want to cause a disaster. See the following topics:
How to free space on the hard drive
- You can remove the data from your file except for the folder/Home/Library /.
- Visit The FAQ XLab and read the FAQ on the free space on your hard drive.
- See also, release space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
- See where my disk space gone?.
- Remember to empty the Recycle Bin to reclaim space.
- Replace the disc with a larger. Check out OWC of readers, tutorials and boxes tools.
- Use OmniDiskSweeper or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are.

When you click on a link to a web site in Spanish, I get an error message: "No. is pudo insertar IP 2605:e000:3 fc 0: 37:6563:1afb:8 d 61:9783 en datos base.»
Is this a problem with the web site or on my computer?
Thank you
LymsiThe message says that it is impossible to insert your IP address in the database. It's probably a problem with your network. While I do not know what causes this, here's something to try:
1. connect your PC directly to your modem via an ethernet cable. (yellow cable goes to the router) If you don't use Wi - Fi, skip this step.
2. If you cannot access the website via the modem, call your ISP.
3. If you can access the site via the modem, reset your router by pressing the reset for a few seconds button. (ATTENTION! This will reset your wifi name and password!)
4. If you can not access the site, try to buy a new router. The NETGEAR N150 router is easy to set up and very affordable.
Hey, I know it sounds crazy, but trust me; This solves a problem with my wifi does not not a specific Web site.
