• Vista system restore question after malware attack

  Hello.  My wife's computer has been attacked by malware.  It all hid on the desktop and the start menu as well as all his personal files, has launched a large number of pop-up windows - up with fake error messages and then prompted to pay an unknown technical support source.  I used the Vista system restore to restore the system to a few days before the attack.  According to the instructions of Windows help, the system restore should not affect his personal files.  I was hoping that his files would be present again after the restore, but they are still missing.  The malware seems to have disappeared now.  Any suggestions on where its files can be located or what measures you need a professional to get back them?

• 64-bit Vista system restore won't work

  64 bit Vista system restore family premium stops and restarts as it works, but after it restarts, it always says it cannot restore. He does not say why it says just try a different restore point or leave. This problem has existed for a long time. I'm stumped, but then again, I'm not a real computer expert!
  Can someone help me?
  Thank you
  Bobby

  > This problem has existed for a long time.

  It may be too late now since you won't restore b 'old' enough to do the system restore.

  However, it is best to do Safe Mode system restore. You can give it a try.

  How to go in safe mode...
  Restart > immediately and repeatedly tapping the F8 key until you see a black white screen abd > use the up/down down arrow to select Safe Mode, Mode safe mode with networking, or Safe Mode with command prompt (if applicable)

  You should also try to do a check of the system files. It's to look for corrupt files. He will try to fix it if it is found.

  He may be able to solve the problem of lack of system restore.

  You can try this program:

  Use the deep Scan option. It may take some time.

  The System File Checker can repair some of the files in there, but probably not all.

  It's probably at least some of the files that have been overwritten. so I would say the the more safe thing to do is to reinstall Windows.

• Windows Installer, iTunes, Windows Update, system restore not working under Vista

  For the last few weeks, I deal with an inability to install new programs in Vista, and I was unable to open the system or iTunes restore not in Mode without failure.  I can't install the windows updates that were downloaded, nor my laptop (Sony Vaio VGN-CS215J) will close properly.  I tried the system restore and used to let me open for a bit, but now iTunes that no longer works.  Occasionally, when my computer starts, it loads only for blacks and not go any further.  I run Kaspersky Anti-virus and used to run Spybot S & D (which is more open) and can't find anything that will solve this problem.  I can't properly download/install updates http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5a58b56f-60b6-4412-95b9-54d056d6f9f4 and delete the temporary files have not helped.  I don't know if I have a lemon of a computer or what happened, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello CWilson13,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Windows Vista Forum.

  I would like to ask you a few questions.

  1 > what happen when you try to restore the system to normal mode?

  2 > are you an error when you try to install updates from windows update?

  3 > you get an error during the installation of other programs?

  About the judgment issue please check if you are able to stop the laptop in safe mode correctly. If Yes, then we must verify the issue by performing a clean boot. Clean boot will help us understand if the problem is due to third and put into service or services.

  The steps to do a clean boot is given in this link:

  www.support.Microsoft.com/kb/331796

  You can also download the latest pack of windows install 4.5 and try to install programs.

  The link for windows install 4.5 is:

  Regarding the Itunes I suggest to uninstall Itunes and Quick time to the computer and download the latest being and install it after installing windows install 4.5.

  I hope this helps. Please let me know about the results so that I can help you.

• 32-bit Vista, System Restore and windows update are suspended.

  This problem started happening almost two months ago. When I turn off computer and windows update tells me that it is updated, I leave. Ive come back hours later to see that my computer never updated and turns off. Ive tried click on windows update to update while I was connected and it still crashes just forever. Today, I think I discovered perhaps the underlying problem. Finally, I got fed up and decided to do a system restore, after hours of research and try all kinds of solutions on these forums (none worked). So now he is suspended from the system restore. Suspicious to me that when the windows update crashes is on the screen where it says create restore point.

  What can I do?

  I do not want to download all that regcure, II _ I chercher search on google, seems tgtbt and I don't want to take the risk of harming my system.

  can anyone help please?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  You should go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest network drivers wifi and card.

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT after each driver.

  Maybe the other pilots. software and updates to the BIOS, you can get there.

  Control Panel - Device Manager - double-click on a device and check the version.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  Start command - in the search box type-

  at the top of the list to find COMMAND - CLICK RIGHT to it - RUN AS ADMIN

  Type the following commands (or you can copy and paste one at a time), each followed by pressing on enter.

  ipconfig/flushdns

  you do not etc system restore disk cleanup to put your computer to the standards of the factory how you bought it if that's what you hear

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of vista recovery discs and also ask them if you have a vista recovery partition on your hard drive to reinstall vista back to factory standards

  you will normally need to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process vista back to factory standards

  Ask them the sequence of keys to use to start the process from the recovery partition

  If in your question that you mean how do you do maintenance work on your existing operating system, please let us know
