Why a red exclamation point has just appeared on all my files?
All the icons of file on my computer without apparent reason, view the red exclamation points. I can't find the details in the menu right/properties click to explain it. They seem all to open normally. The operating system seems to be running a little slower and temperament than normal. Any ideas?
McAfee Internet Security and McAfee Total Protection have a feature called McAfee online backup. It is a limited version of the McAfee product separate online backup. It is actually a renamed Mozy. http://home.McAfee.com/store/PackageDetail.aspx?pkgid=348
It is on the main menu under the backup and Data Protection. I know that there is a way to turn on and off here. It seems, however, that it may be necessary to uninstall the McAfee product and then create a custom installation by omitting the backup feature online.

The seventh post on this thread is rather convoluted instructions to disable. It is fairly old so maybe things have changed.
If you have problems, the best thing would be to contact McAfee technical support.

Why are there red exclamation points next to my files
Why are there red exclamation points next to my files on the desktop
Hi Lankiller99,
Using backup software?
By chance are you using Norton 360? Try disabling the backup on the same status-
Norton-> settings-> backup settings of-> backup status overlays-> OFF-> apply.
Run the manual backup, it should be ok.
I hope this helps.

It was getting my full disk space. Up to 1.2 GB to 73 GB. I removed some unnecessary files and programs up to 4.6 GB. Last night my internet was running very slow and I got a message that says that my disk space is full. I went to the Explorer, who intends to seek more to remove offline. To my surprise, it showed that I have 38 GB of free space. At the same time however, some (not all) of my desktop icons now have a red exclamation mark on them. There are some that are shortcuts, jpg files and doc files. That means the red exclamation that tempt me to now have more free disk space?
I would just be guessing really. He could have files, online backup was queued up. It may be something to do with the shadow copy of Volume. If I use cleaning disc with the option all users and delete restore Points and shadow copies on the tab "More options", I'll be back about 15 GB on a disc of similar size. The effect is only temporary, until they accumulate again.

I use Adobe first Pro CS5. I'm working on a project for a month and this morning, I realized that there is a problem with it. To make sure that I don't junk my computer upwards, I have always to leave the files I'm working with my expansion drive and I work from there. I have autosave all the time, etc, but apparently, at some recent point, my disk expansion has been disconnected, and Premiere Pro tells me that all my files are offline. My biggest problem is that I've renamed all my video files in Premiere Pro, but I not rename them on my drive for expansion. Thus, for them find would probably take me as long, if not more, of my original work. Is it possible in the world that I can record these files and the long hours that I've already spent editing this video? If you have an idea regarding what I can do, I would be eternally grateful. Note: I work with AVCHD clips.
Please, I beg you. Whatever that is would be helpful at this stage.
Make sure that Premiere Pro is closed, and reconnect the drive. Everything should be good when you reopen the project.
The exceptions are two. Bill has raised the first. The second is that if you have already saved the project with offline files. Once you do that, you're done.

MPMiniSigStub.exe has just appeared in the E: drive - do not know how or why
Hello
I just noticed a new folder in my E: drive I don't create, called 14442a029a6ced39ab27dda8ac. In this folder is an application called MPMiniSigStub.
I had a glance around this forum and others on the web, and I understand that it is something to do with the Microsoft security updates, etc. Most of the places mentioned that she has to do with Microsoft Security Essentials. However, I have not installed (I use Avast 5.0).
My laptop is Vista 32 bit SP2. I use Windows Defender and Windows Firewall. I also Avast Anti-virus duration and Prevx 3.0 (limited, free version).
I would like to know if there is any reason to worry about this new folder, and demand would it not wise or foolish to delete?

It may be a virus masquerading as the real program, but on the other hand, it might not. There will be NO problems if remove you it.

I JUST FOUND OUT ALL MY FILES CHANGED TO 72 FOR MY RESOLUTION?
I just has opted for the photoshop online and sent some pictures that I thought were at 300 dpi resolution, then I discovered all of my files converted 72, if I resized back them can I get my data back or will I have to start over
Open your Image.
Go to Image > Image size and uncheck resampling.
In the resolution field, type 300. Click OK, and then save. 300 is a standard printing resolution, so if it is for the web and is not going to print, don't bother.

Your computer has been locked and all your files encrypted with RSA 2048-bit encryption.
My computer has been hit by a ransomware (which is reported by Palo Alto Networks March 4, http://researchcenter.paloaltonetworks.com/2016/03/new-os-x-ransomware-keranger-infect es-transmission-bittorrent-client-...)
What should I do to save my files?
And how to remove the virus permanently?
If you do not have a backup that has not been attached while the virus was busy to encrypt your data, I think it's too late now.
To be absolutely sure that there is nothing left on the computer, the only way is from scratch.
