Where are the startup programs that do not appear in the location listed?

I have a program (called Wondershare) I thought I had uninstalled later. I was mopping up my start today and noticed Wondershare programs on the list of processes. I thought it was weird, so I looked at the command and followed by the location of the file to the location he listed but cannot find the folder, in what he says he is?

Location it lists is C:\Program Files (x 86)-common Files\Wondershare\Wondershare Helper Compact... but in my folder common files, it does list no this folder under the name "Wondershare", and a search reveals nothing either?

So where is this program Wondershare hid? And why it shows the path of incorrect file on my list of startup programs? And how do I remove it from the list of startup programs? (not turn it off, remove it from the list).

Everything you see in the msconfig Startup tab can be found in the registry.

Currently enabled elements (those with the box) can be found in one of two places.

There is a section for the local COMPUTER, and there is a section for the currently connected USER.

Startup items that apply to the local computer can be found here:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.

Startup items that apply to the currently logged-in user can be found here:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER \Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

You can specify which section of the registry the required are looking at the column location in msconfig.

Startup enabled items will start with HKLM or HKCU (look at your example).

So if I wanted to remove the entry currently enabled for an HP printer owned by the current USER (HKCU) I would do this in the Registry Editor:

Since there is no cancellation or exit without saving the changes in Registry Editor, you should consider how you want to undo the changes if you make a mistake, and your system is working badly or not to initialize the next time it is restarted.

Before registry settings to do this:

Create a manual system restore point.

Consider the backup of your registry with this free and popular tool:

  • Where are the location of metadata stored in pictures taken with an iOS device?

    I just follow me back from a trip with a lot of pictures taken with a couple of the iPhone as a digital camera.  Pictures taken with the iOS for most devices have locations associated with them, as evidenced by the dialog box 'Get Info' in Photos for Mac. They show well on a card and are correctly associated with keywords of the location (for example, "Sierra National Forest, northeast of Fresno County, United States of America"). But I can't know where the coordinates are stored. There is nowhere to search Photos for Mac that will give me the real coordinates. Also open images in preview does not display a GPS tab in the 'Détails' box how will be my camera equipped with GPS. And finally the search all metadata in Photoshop or Adobe Bridge also will not show all the details or any other type of geographic information.  I just checked my old version of iPhoto (9.6.1) and she won't show also all location information.

    Photos for Mac will display basic information, but I can't find where this happens. Any ideas?

    If you don't see any GPS information in the Inspector of Preview window, you are probably stripping while dragging or by exporting to office. Try dragging the image from Photos while pressing the Option key.

    If you load using maxl you should have a file of errors defined in the script.

  • How to remove 'hidden' contacts that do not appear in my contact list in Windows Mail?

    I have a contact in mail. I guess that it was put there by a few emails I inadvertently opened. Anyway when I try to fill in the "to" box on a message that I normally get an AutoComplete list, I put in the first letter of the name, if there are several names starting with the same letter. Now, when I start typing a name with the letter 'L', instead of the 4 names in my contact list that start with 'L', I get the full name of a spammer, let's call him "loser at lumphead dot com. When I went to my list of contacts to remove this stupid I couldn't find this address! So I have 3 questions. Where Mail did in fact raise the file which has the coordinates? How an address to get into the system like that and stand out of the list of contacts? Most important: how to remove a contact 'hidden' like that?

    Thank you for your quick response.
    No, Shawns response suggested to go to the C:\users\myname\contacts file and delete it from there. I had tried before when I tried to locate the list of contacts somewhere outside Mail (sorry I forgot to mention that). But the contacts Vista file did not show this 'hidden contact' either. But further down the page, I found an answer to a similar problem. Gary van in reply to "re: delete contacts autocomplété" gave this link.

    http://www.Winhelponline.com/articles/264/1/utility-to-clear-recently-used-email-addresses-in-Windows-mail.html

    This leads to a file called winmailmru.zip. This tool allowed me to bring up a window showing ALL the contacts which it previously 'hidden', with options to remove them. I selected and deleted. Problem solved.
     
    But I still wonder: where was hiding the contact "hidden"? If it wasn't not in Contacts of Vista directory where Mail was from?  How this winmailmru.exe utility it found? It is also strange that the contact in question seems to have the ability to bypass the selection popup box that shows generally all other contacts beginning with the letter typed and force his way into the 'To' box, excluding the possibility of chooseing another contact. I am happy that my immediate problem is solved, but I wonder if the ability of a person sending a mail to 'hide' a normal contact and overide process in Mail is a security problem or just a nuisence? Anyway, thanks again for putting me on the path to the solution.

  • What should I do so that I can make a routine (monthly) BACK to the top without having to allow a program that is not properly validated?

    Since July of this year, when I try to back up my computer to HP Envy 17 laptop I get a pop-up window asking if I want to allow the following program to make changes to my computer.  The program is: Microsoft Windows Backup/Windows Hardware Driver verification / valid from 07/12/2009 to 03/07/2011.  Because the validation is obviously outdated, I consider the program run out of appropriate verification, but I can't back up my computer without the program.

    Hewlett-Packard said the problem probably occurs because the computer was missing an update of windows.  Updates happen automatically without my intervention.  I bought the new computer, directly from HP in the month of August, 2011 (after the date of validation of program pop up) with Windows 7 Ultimate installed and had no problem backup of my files to a CD until July of this year.  I believe that the problem may be the result of a rather than a missed update windows update.  What should I do so that I can make a routine (monthly) BACK to the top without having to allow a program that is not properly validated?

  • Where are the saved files that someone sends you through Skype Windows8

    Hello

    I just bought a new computer that has windows 8 installed above and I must say that I was shocked when I realized that the system is like that running a pad that is so bad, if you want to actually work with the computer.

    Then, I installed Skype and was amazed that there is nothing that you can do with it. No video call?

    I use Skype to send files and make video calls. Now, when someone sends me a file I have no choice where this file is saved... Where are the files stored?

    OS: Windows 8

    Thank you

    type in your windows search bar

    '%AppData% '.
    then you will go to the folder "Skype".
    and there will be a folder with "my received files."
