Windows 8 Pro - guard program appearing

There is a program on my PC called PC fast.  I can't find it using msconfig to disable and I can't find it in the Control Panel Pogram to uninstall.  I can't imagine where she Sie coming.  I have posted before and said to use msconfig, but it shows nothing.  I couldn't find my original for the response message, so this will have to do.

Hi Grandma,

You may have picked up this sneaky bit of malware from another program something you click by mistake on.  In some cases, I heard that people actually install such things on their computers.

Ok.. Start with the top and bottom - stop when he disappeared.

The first method is easier and requires no action on your part.

  • Try to remove the fast PC program with Fixit.  FixIt try to remove the software and delete the registry entries.

FixIt - Solve problems with programs that cannot be installed or uninstalled

  • Once the removal is complete, reboot / restart your computer and log in
  • Check if the fast PC has been deleted.

====================================================================================

If you want to do you can use the following as a reference to an additional check for 'malignant' entered in the register.

HowTo reference:

How can I remove fmom Speedy PC Pro my computer Windows 7?

It was suggested that the references to PC Speed will be located in two locations in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\

  • Once you have opened Registry, you can use the Find (under Edit) command to search for fast PC

To make it easier for you...

Follow the instructions in this document to make a backup of your Windows registry database:

Instructions for open the registry:

  1. From the Windows desktop, press the windows + R to open the Run dialog box.

  • Windows XP Pro on which I run several programs. After the opening of a few applications, I have this message "not enough memory".

    Hello

    I have a PC running Windows XP Pro on which I run several programs. After the opening of a few applications, I have this message "not enough memory".
    When I have this message, I can't open another application, or those in Windows... I have 2 GB of memory and only 700 MB are used.
    If I open the calculator several times (about 65 times), I have the same result.
    Sometimes, I get no error message, but the application does not open.

    Someone knows why?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You did the chnages on computer before this problem?

    I suggest you go through the steps of the following atrticle.

    "Not enough memory" error message appears when you have a large number of programs running.

    Note: Important this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    I am using Windows XP Pro SP3. IE8 or FF8 can open all the links that appear in my subscription newsletters. The message I get is:

    Firefox can't establish a connection to the server...

    Because this happens with both browsers, I suspect that some settings in Windows is the origin of the problem - maybe an update. Everyone knows about this type of behavior? Someone at - it suggestions for me?

    Hello

    This information should be useful.

    1. the HOSTS file would have an impact on all browsers. If you do not deliberately use the HOSTS file to block some websites, run the FixIt in this article to reset (clear on) the HOSTS file.
    How can I reset the default Hosts file? :

    2 key is only, but go to Internet Options > privacy and try a cookie of low value or accept all.

    3. from security on the IE command bar > InPrivate filtering settings, disable filtering.
    Always safe > Filter SmartScreen > disable the SmartScreen filter.

    4 disable third-party security programs (antivirus, antispyware, firewall, etc.) * just long enough * to test some links.

  • If I switch from XP Pro tp Windows will I have program compatibility problems - as with Adobe Acrobat, Corel WordPerfect, MS Office 7, etc.

    If I update to Windows XP Pro tp will be I have compatibility problems of program - as with Adobe Acrobat Pro 8, Adobe Photoshop, Corel Word Perfect X 3, 7 of MS Office, MS Project 10, Blackberry Desktop Manager, etc..  The facility will be transparent by keeping all of my existing files / content?

    What version of Windows you are migrating towards?

    Check the compatibility of each program by accessing the Web site of the Publisher. In addition, many companies, such as Adobe, have their own forums which will give experiences of other users to use a particular version of a program on a particular version of Windows.

    If you upgrade to Windows 7 or Windows 8, you can use the compatibility of Microsoft here for a guide Center:

    Alas...

    As the forums MS Answers does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.

    Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Click Start, run and enter the following command:

    Click OK and you should see a message like this:

    Restart and see how things look now.
