Windows Explorer and other programs will not open / work
Can anyone help? In XP Home Edition, programs as internet explore/microsoft works work only sporadically, but often does not open and then I asks me to send an error report. When I try to stop, Windows Explorer will not work and asks me to send another report of error! ... Can not much experience with these things someone explain what I can do? (I ran a virus scan, and all seems ok)
Thank you
Hi Mike,.
According to my experience, this kind of behaviour is symptomatic of the corruption of data on the hard drive. However, since you say that these applications work sometimes I am inclined to suspect that your hard drive may be failing, possibly with errors in sector where those applications reside.
I suggest that you take a backup copy of the any of your own data files and then run a CHKDSK command on your hard drive to see what he finds (this can make a right click on the HARD drive in my computer icon, then select Properties, then the Tools tab.) Check disk utility is at the top).
If it detects too many bad sectors, and then looking to replace the hard drive and reinstalling your system.
Kind regards

How can I recover the files and programs before a system restore? my document folders are all empty and my programs will not open!
I know they are there and hidden somewhere, but this restoration took my settings of the computer to 2004! We lost all our data, our software that we use to operate our company at home, our quickbooks that has all our financial data, family photos, videos, Outlook will work not so no e-mail, all turned in time and 6 years ' worth of documents have disappeared.
What happeneded was that I was trying to upgrade to quickbooks software when I got an error, I cancelled out of the facility, then restarted and that's when I got an error hal.dll something? I thought about a system restore would allow me to go back in time to just before when the error occurred, but he basically took my computer back to factory settings, so all the programs that I installed and paid hundreds of dollars for the past six years has disappeared, Microsoft Office and very expensive construction estimating software that we wil have to pay once AGAIN for If I can't get this program working properly.
I am a fool! I can't believe what's happening.
Someone at - it instructions on how I can retrieve either the programs and data that I need specifically or how to go and seek shade from the files I read online on and restore my computer for about 12 hours ago?
Thank you all!

Looks like you did a system rather than a system restore recovery. If you have inserted a disc supplied with your machine and booted from it, you probably erased the disc and installed the original operating system provided with your computer. Usually, a step in this recovery is to do a full format or quick of your drive. If you did a full format, your data is permanently lost. With a quick format, your data may still be there, somewhere but inaccessible by normal means. Applications must generally be installed, in order to recover the files probably will not help unless you have the original installation media. Your other data files (images, videos, financial data) may be salvageable, but at this point, it would be advisable to take your computer or your disk to a business/professional who is experienced with data disc recovery. It will be cheap and there is no guarantee.
Impatient, remember investigate you a backup strategy for your computer and critical data. Hard drives can go wrong with little or no warning.

The problems started only within the past few days. It's like something has hijacked my computer. Programs will not open from the desktop but will if I go through the beginning, the road to programs. Windows open will not close so I shut down the computer. When I do a search on google and click on the link I want, the computer brings me to something totally different.
My computer is 5 years and customized with a CORE 2 DUO Intel DG965 motherboard containing:

After problems with my system slows down, I found Windows Installer, stop operation. I have Windows XP Home Edition, SP3. I have Office 2002 and my processor will not open.

Apps and PSE 6 program will not open.
PES 6 program will not open in the start menu or Windows Explorer and editor and organizer applications will not open in Windows Explorer. All files are listed in US and will not empty. This has happened recently, after that I used the program a few years. Should I reinstall the program? If so, the catalog will have to be re-created? There are over 7000 photos in the catalog. I use Windows 7 Home Premium.
Try to open Orgnaizer and editor-in-Chief of there respective exe with the Welcome screen running.
Organizer: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Elements 6 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe
Publisher: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Photoshop elements 6\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
Welcome screen: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Photoshop elements 6\Adobe Photoshop Elements 6
PS: The two paths for the 64 bit OS. For use of the OS 32 bit: C:\Program Files
If it does not help, try uninstalling and reinstalling PSE again. Uninstall/re-intall process will not suffer your catalog.

My Roxio VHS TO DVD movie editing program has worked on my laptop Toshiba Windows 7 system before I reformatted. Now when I open Roxio it changes the screen resolution of 256 colors at a very low resolution b and the program will not work. When I close the program Roxio the resolution of the screen reverts back to 256 colors. Control of program compatibility tells that it's incompatible, but the program worked on my system before I reformatted.

When I first installed the new 5.1 icloud, OUTLOOK 2016 worked well. Updated windows 10 and know icloud will not work. ICloud show that it works. Have reinstalled icloud a lot of time and know that the add-in does not show up in OUTLOOK. Help
I was pulling my hair re the incompatibility of iCloud and Outlook of Office 365 2016. I finally got things to work on three of my computers - which are on the latest version of Windows 10.
The steps that worked for me:
(1) uninstall the plugin iCloud (what version you have); the uninstall may fail but if so don't worry as step 3 below overlays some iCloud plugin version you have installed
(2) open the Control Panel, uninstall, change/repair Office 365; Select fast repair
(3) reinstall iCloud plugin (version 5.1), then restart the system by following the instructions
(4) after the reboot, plug in iCloud application Apple ID and password; Make sure that you enter your apple with the suffix icloud.com ID (e.g., [email protected])
(5) check the iCloud options to your will (e.g., photo synch, synchronization of bookmarks, sync mail/calendar, etc.)
(6) check apply it, leave the work plugin iCloud for a minute, when he finishes, check the closing
(7) open Outlook 2016 and check your calendar or contacts or anything that you indicated in step 5, that you want to synchronize with iCloud.com
I hope it works for you!

I have an Acer Aspire 5542. Since I was Windows 10 MyWinLocker Yo-Safe will not open.
Hi, I have an Acer Aspire 5542. It came with Windows 7, and had MyWinLocker Yo-Safe pre-installed. Since I upgraded to Windows 10 MyWinLocker Yo-Safe will not open. After I entered my password in the window of MyWinLocker Yo-Safe he said Yo-Safe is open in a small window pop up at the bottom right of the screen, but Yo-Safe will appear in the window of this PC, and the overview of the tray icon still says it is closed.
I found the answer: open an administrator command prompt and then type in: sc mwlservice start

When you re-installed Photoshop, you also re-installed the version of Camera Raw comes with Photoshop - in other words came back you to an old version of Camera Raw, which does not support the D5100.

The D5100 has first supported in Camera Raw version 6.4.
In Photoshop, click Help > updates to update Camera Raw.
