When I start my computer and the connection to my office the Documents folder opens automatically.

I use a Dell PC and running Vista.   Recently (in the last two weeks) whenever I start the computer, log on to my office, the first thing that loads immediately is the My Documents folder.   I checked the items in my Start Up programs, but I don't know what I'm looking for.

Thanks for any help.

Hi JeffWinbush,

Method 1:

(a) go to control panel > appearance and personalization > Folder Options

(b) select the view tab, uncheck the restore windows files when connecting

Method 2: Run the fixit available in the links below and check if that makes a difference-Worth to try

Diagnose and repair Windows files and folders problems automatically
Difficulty of broken desktop shortcuts and common system maintenance tasks

Note: FixIt would attempt to recover bad sectors on the hard disk, in the course of this process there are chances of DATA loss from that particular area.

If the problem persists, this could be an activity of the virus

Method 3: Run Microsoft Security scanner (MSS) to any threat and try to correct

Note: Infected files can be deleted from your computer; There is a chance of data loss.

  • When getting started, my computer is slow and unresponsive?

    For the last two or three days, I noticed that my computer is very slow and unresponsive. None of the programs that I click on will open and usually everything will freeze if I press what either. When I put my computer in Mode safe mode (with networking), everything seems to work very well. When in Mode safe, everything I click actually works, but it seems that it's not when I start my computer using the option "Start Windows normally". I have a laptop that is currently running on Windows 7. Anyone happen to know how I can fix this problem? Can what steps I take to fix my laptop? I also tried searching for virus and so far it is said that my computer is fine and has no virus. I used CCleaner (Pro) to "clean" my computer and my computer still seems slow, unresponsive and freezes quiet a bit. I also system restore my computer to an earlier time, but it is still giving me the problem slow, freezing and not responding like it.

    I have a Dell computer that came with Windows XP Home edition.  When I start my computer the monitoring of ERROR appears: RUNDLL error loading specified not found \3\DLBUtime.dll module

    I just click 'ok' and he goes, but, as for what it stop popping up everytime I start my computer.

    Can someone help me with this?

    Aprilm,

    You are LuLu5119, who posted a question last August?

    If this isn't the case, you should have started your own thread.  If so (and even if not), you should have responded to questions about Dell printers.

    Assuming that you complain of a "Error loading \3\DLBUtime.dll" message that appears when you start your computer, you should know that the DLBUtime.dll file probably has something to do with the software from Dell which has been partially deleted, but could also be indicative of malware as well as partially withdrawn.

    In both cases, the best way for start you to prevent the message at windows is to download Autoruns http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

    Install the Autoruns and let it complete the scan of your computer.  Then click on the "Connection" tab and uncheck the following entry:

    Look for an entry that has 'DLBUCATS' in the first column.  If you do not see that, look for "rundll32 \3\dlbutime.dll" in the last column ("path of the Image).

    Uncheck that entry, close Autoruns and restart your computer.  You should get is no longer the message.

    If for any reason, you find later that you need dlbutime.dll running, run Autoruns and check the box. If you decide that you need never again, run Autoruns, right-click on the entry and select Delete.

    As General precautionary measure, in case your entry dlbutime.dll was related to malicious software, rather than the Dell printing software, download the following free scanners:

    MalwareBytes Anti-Malware: http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware Portable: http://superantispyware.com/portablescanner.html

    For MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, download, install, update and run.
    For Portable SAS, follow the instructions on the Web page (note that the instructions assume that you use a different computer to download; if you're not, just make a note of the name of the file).

    Have 2 printers on the computer and the PC will not print one when you switch to the other?

    Having a printer at the office and one at home, but use the same PC for both? Unable to print at home after bring you it to the office (and vice versa)?

    If you USB, most of the time, the PC will recognize what printer is which. Sometimes PORTS does not commute. You can manually change the correct ports if necessary.

    CLICK ON THE MENU START

    1 devices and printers

    2 right CLICK on the printer

    3. choose the PRINTER PROPERTIES

    4. click on PORTS

    5. There will be a list of ports with one (checked marked). If it's on the wrong port, change to the right pair and choose APPLY.

    (NOTE: it must ALWAYS be on a USB port or a wireless connection.) Some ports wireless start with a #(adresse IP) or a SERIAL number)

    I hope this helps. Sometimes, you can create your own port if you have more questions.
