Windows XP registry?

How do the windows xp registry?

If you have to ask, you shouldn't do it.

Do you a favor and the backup of the registry before you begin to make changes.  Use the restore system or, better, C:\WINDOWS\ERUNT (which is free).  Registry changes take effect immediately.  There is no "undo" or "Are you really sure" protection.

    RUNDLL - error loading c:\windows\wrypap.dll - specified module cannot be found, this happens after windows xp registry

    There is very little. DLL files that should be loaded from the C:\WINDOWS folder and is not one of them.

    If you do not have a good explanation for the name of the file in a Google search, the chances are good that your system is currently or has been infected by malware.

    A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading... ". "or"specific module could not be found"message at startup is usually related to the malware that has been configured to run at startup, but the referenced file has been removed after a malware scan, leaving behind him a startup item or the registry entry pointing to a file that does not exist.
    It might be a removal of malicious software or an application not installed.  The entry may have a curious looking name since it was probably generated at random when the malware was installed. If you search your system for the referenced file, you may not find.
    Windows attempts to load this file but cannot locate because the file has been deleted for most probably during an analysis of the malware. However, an orphaned associate of remainders of startup parameter or registry entry and tells Windows to load the file when you start or connection.
    So you should delete the referenced entry Windows stop trying to load or run the file. It may or may not be included in the registry, but you can find it.  Autoruns (see below) you get the elements no matter where it is.

    You must be sure to solve the problem and not just fix the symptom of the problem by simply relieving your message - system is not a fix (there is a difference).

    If you just locate and uncheck the item in msconfig, which disables the element but does not remove the reference to the element of false starting your computer.   The msconfig program is not a Startup Manager, that's a troubleshooting tool.

    Disabling things in msconfig to put an end to the messages and think that your problem is solved is short-sighted and leave behind him a sloppy XP configuration.  Just disable the display of a start-up error message should not count as a 'solution' to the problem.

    If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can find and remove the reference directly from there or remove it using a popular third-party tool called Autoruns.  The problem can always be found in the registry well.
    Before making any changes to your registry by hand or with third-party tools, don't forget to first make a backup of the registry. There is no cancellation or exit without saving the option in regedit.
    Here is a link to a popular registry backup tool:
    You can also use the Autoruns to find the element of start remains little matter where he's hiding.  Autoruns does not install anything on your computer.  It will display all startup locations where the reference may be then you can turn it off or remove it completely.  Here is the download link for Autoruns:
    Run Autoruns.exe and wait that he at the end of the filling of the list of entries.
    When the Autoruns is finished scanning your system, it will say "Ready" in the lower left corner.  Autoruns can be a little intimidating to first if you have never seen it before because it displays a lot of information
    .  You are really interested only a few sections.
    The problem is usually to start the system or the user startup entries, then click the connection tab and see if the startup item is there.
    Scroll through the list and look for a boot entry associated files in the error message.
    If you can't find on the connection tab, look in any tab.
    You can also click file, search to search for logon, or any tab for all or part of the name of the element.
    Right-click on the offending entry and choose Remove.  If you are not sure what it is, you can simply disable, restart and if the problem is resolved and then remove the offending entry.  If you don't see it in Autoruns, you may edit the registry and remove the item from your startup folder it.  Autoruns shall display the same information however.
    Given that you had or have an infection, followed with this:
    Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:

    While to install the software
    Virus... etc.
     
     
    Each click Open and save is related to the registry.
     
    This is something very tedous to verify the integrity of a registry of windows with all of the above modifications being carried out.
     
    You can back up the registry of the computer after you install Windows new and update with all Windows updates and the custom software, into a registry backup or create a system image / restore point.

  • repair Windows XP registry needed. (windows live care scanner errors found but will not fix them)

    I am running Windows XP with IE 8 and Norton 360. I do updates regularly and also use the Windows Live One Care Safety Scanner. Each Analyzer detects a problem sometimes, and fix it. The Windows tool still found some problems in my registry and fixes some but not all. I'm still running a slow processor but there are times when the hard drive starts to crank and system enters a State bound upward to do something that takes forever and finally unlocks. If I look in the Task Manager, it is usually System Idle Process and ccsvchst.exe which is cranking up the numbers in the use of CPU time CPU and MEM. I have also a ton of svchost.exe running. I would like an easy way of fixing and removal of registry problems and then making sure the running processes are legitimate and not set not a priority as they seem to be. Thank you.

    If you have a problem with ccsvchst.exe, you do not have a problem with XP - you have a problem with Norton and it has long discussed performance and ccsvchst.exe problems accompanying the Norton forums.

    No single AV tool seems to know everything and Norton is whatever is not because your system is not infected.  It simply means that Norton doesn't find anything he knows.  If all goes well, you use more than one tool of analysis, but not more than one both if there is a real time involved protection they'll get in the way of the other.

    In some reviews, Norton has a reputation as one of the most famous system CPU and memory hog on the market - you could not picked up too more than AV tools with a more unfavorable reputation in this area, but some people really seem to it.  I think it's too fresh generals.

    You can temporarily uninstall it (using their special uninstall of course), reboot and see how your system works without him and then decide if keeping it is 'worth it' or consider broadening your horizons AV a bit.

    You can find out exactly how long your system takes to start down to the tenth of a second and determine exactly how long each process takes to start and then decide what to do (as opposed to guess).  For example, I know that my system takes exactly 28,03 seconds to start.

    When you see a report and a chart of your startup process full of one end to the other, it's more revealing and informative.  If you want to do this, we can tell you how.

    Unfortunately, the forums MS Answers don't ask not even basic on a system information when a new question is asked, so we know almost nothing about your system.

    If you want to talk a bit, follow these steps:

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click on OK and when the system info summary appears, click on Edition, select all, copy, and then paste the information here.

    There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.

    You can also take a screenshot of your task manager or process and post it for review and analysis (there is an example below).

    This is my standard copy/paste on the way to understand the multiple svchost process (what a ton of them means to you) that you see in the Task Manager:

    You may be able to get clues with what is happening with your svchost process using the Task Manager and maybe understand.

    You will always be able to understand what is happening with your svchost process if you use Process Explorer.

    Download Process Explorer, so you can see what is 'really' running on your system, especially behind those svchosts several process see you in the running task manager.

    Download Process Explorer from here:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/Sysinternals/bb896653.aspx

    You'll like Process Explorer when you get the hang of it.  Process Explorer is the Manager of Windows taskbar on steroids.

    Process Explorer installs nothing so it won't slow down your system since it works only on request.

    Process Explorer can seem a little intimidating at first because it has so much information, but you will begin to make love the way it works when you're looking for performance problems.   You can even say EP you want it to be your new default 'Task Manager' value in the future.  You can always run the original tasks as Manager.

    Once you get Process Explorer running, expand the columns, made drag the corners of the screen for it's largest, etc., so you can see as much information as possible in the window.  Now you can really see what is running on the system.

    Here's a screenshot of my poor system when I use Process Explorer:

    http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/2567/ProcessExplorer.PNG

    The CPU column is usually the most interesting start with performance issues - which uses the most?

    It is OK and normal to have several svchost running processes.  Important XP Services are actually runs under the svchost process. There are sometimes an XP Service that runs under a svchost process, sometimes there are several Services in XP, which runs under the svchost process.

    Sometimes malware will hide behind a svchost process because the malware knows that you won't be able to find it in the Task Manager.  He will hide behind a svchost.exe process to deceive you, but you can outsmart it.

    Malicious software can disguise itself also seems to be a legitimate process of XP or he could hide under/behind other processes that you see running in Task Manager if you can't see the execution.

    The malware would trick you into thinking you must use a System Restore Point, run a repair install or reinstall your XP from scratch when you really don't.

    Looking at the display in process Explorer, you want the CPU most to be associated with the system idle process.  It's 'free time' on your system, so more time there, more free.

    If you look at the graphs of performance and see red spikes (or not) double click the graphic in the upper left corner to display the graph to use.  Move the mouse over any pics to see what are the causes.  Even if the Spike has already scroll screen, you can still move the mouse over the edge to see what caused.  You can also just wait for a pic to happen and then see what caused the Spike.

    To help understand your process svchost and what is running under them, read this article and you will be smarter than the average bear:

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial129.html

    Then with a few Google searches, you can watch every thing running behind your svchost process and Process Explorer and see what it is and decide if your configuration needs it or not and then decide what to do about this.

    If you think you have a svchost.exe process amok, run using Process Explorer, you can right-click that offensive svchost, properties and on the Services tab and son, you can see which runs under it.

    There is a CPU column it will expand (make the wider column) so that you can see CPU.  Maybe you can spot what background process is so CPU consumption under the svchost.exe process.   Stroll under the svchost process and you will find the problem.

    You can also see what is running under each svchost simply by pointing your mouse on the svchost.exe process.  Some of them have just a things working under them and some will have several things (I hope that all the legitimate XP services) and some will have a lot of things.

    If you have a svchost process that is afflicted, which runs under your afflicted?

    No running process must defy reasonable explanation.

    First, see what you can find using Process Explorer, then if nothing is obvious, additional advice.

  • Cannot change the window's registry. Log into Windows as a system administrator to unlock the software"

    Impossible to unblock a program, the master genealogist, get the message 'cannot modify the window registry. Sign in to Windows as a system administrator to unlock the software". I am the administrator.

    The program tries to modify an entry in the registry and something he keeps.  The registry is huge, and unless you know exactly what entry does not cooperate, your best approach would be to restore the registry to a point to where he was working.  You can do this by performing a "system restore."

  • Can a Windows 7 upgrade disk rewrite a corrupted Windows XP registry

    Hi all

    My father-in-law has a blue screen on his PC HP Pavilion problem. It showed the following error description:

    Failure of a registry file

    Unable to load the hive file \SystemRoute\system32\config\SOFTWARE or its log or alternate

    It is damaged, absent, or not writable

    This computer must be upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, so my questions are:

    1. can I remove his c: drive, connect it to one of the bays expansion on my PC and copy & paste the files he needs to keep?

    2. If we run that a Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade disc will be he able to run and will replace the registry with the new data required for Windows 7?

    This isn't a very old HP computer we're talking about, it works 4 GB of RAM, a 1 TB hard drive and a dual-core processor. There must be a way to get this operational return. The version of Windows XP, there is an OEM with no original discs to re - install Windows XP from.

    Thank you very much for any help offered.

  • Error Windows Vista registry; 'Software' is no longer available in the RegBack folder

    For a long time, my computer upgraded to the point a file corrupted software in the registry and due to my lack of ability to install a new operating system (no copies were available and I didn't have the money to buy a) as well as my lack of interest in losing the information on this disk, I looked for other solutions.  I came across a great technique where a copy of the software file is copied to the backup (RegBack) registry file, so start the computer with a fully functional copy of this file.  It worked for ~ a year; I would use my system recovery disk to perform needed to start command lines upward.  Now, I'm facing a problem.  A copy of the software is more in my RegBack folder.  Old copies of the registry (software.old, system.old, etc.) are so corrupt, and a file under the name of "software.sav", which I'm not sure of the object of not brought success.

    Now I have access to a copy of Windows 7, but am facing a monumental problem.  The "upgrade" feature will not work unless the computer is started successfully in the previous version of Windows.  It is very important that I do not lose some data on this hard drive, so I'm curious to see some possible solutions.

    1.) it would be possible for me to copy the file from another computer on an external hard drive or a disk software and copy on my computer?

    (2.) it would be possible for me to a copy of Linux from an external hard drive or a disk startup and access to information on my first hard drive to back up important information?

    This last solution would be preferable, because it seems as if it would be less hassle simply to recover important information and move, even if the first solution would enable the same result, just with more steps.

    If there is another solution that will allow me to recover the data on my hard drive, please let me know.  I'm open to experimental ideas.

    Hello

    You can back up your data using Linux on the disk.

    What are other ways to do it:

    Saving your files:

    You can remove the hard drive and put it in a hard drive USB enclosure > plug it into another computer > and try to read and copy your data in this way.

    Or, you can download Knoppix > make a bootdisk to > start your system with it (IF your material is all work) > and copy your data from the hard drive like that.
