XP updates and security

Original title: help

can someone help me understand.  I tried to run the update, my xp dell professional kept closing a d start.  Finally windows would not start.  repair message of sez, it has not work new screen, tried toshiba en route to the top, but I went back to the first use, out of the box.  has had to the new name. Kindly handed Norton Security.  but favorite went photos have disappeared, I'm in time printer disappeared, help?

As I said, it seems that if you used the option "reset to their original state.  It would, indeed, have erased all of your files including your photos.

At this point, I can't determine for you what could have been the original problem.

There is a low possibility that software data recovery, such as the freeware Recuva, might be able to recover some of your photos.  https://www.Piriform.com/Recuva

There is a slightly higher (but still not very high) probability that a professional data recovery service may be able to recover some of your photos.  These services are not cheap, but only you can put a value on your photos.  See, for example:

http://www.drivesaversdatarecovery.com/

http://www.krollontrack.com/data-recovery/

Other--> http://hard-drive-recovery-services-review.toptenreviews.com/

The more you continue to use the computer, any recovery will be less likely.

The lesson you should take this is regularly back up all your data.  You can buy an external hard drive or use one of the online backup systems (e.g., http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0, 2817,2288745,00.asp).

Maybe a second lesson, "Do not click OK unless you understand what you are about to do."

  • Last update and security patch is causing my Sony Vaio suddenly Crash

    I settled on the recommended automatic so I was not really expected a nightmare when instead of clicking the close option as usual, I pressed the power option keys which allowed the last version of Windows including the new security patch must be installed updates to Windows. When I tried to power my laptop again once he would only start for a second before turning off suddenly. He did this several times with the switch off the coast so sudden that I first thought it was a question of power, but what repair Windows came, he had a well-posed power my first thought.  The first repair attempt has not fixed the problem then the laptop restart cut again randomly during the boot. After several attempts to turn on, Windows repair came on once again, but in this case after ten minutes of "trying to fix" she came back with the result that it could not. However, I had the opportunity to do a system restore that seems fortunately to have worked. I am however faced with the problem of Windows once more want me to update my system. After what happened before, I'm not want to do. Is there a way around this so that this update and patch will install not or that can be installed without the nightmare of him causing the laptop repeatedly crash after.

  • Installation problem: other updates and security for Windows Vista (KB981852)

    In my history of update, this update shows as installation again and again "with success" since August, but he is still listed as an update to install.  This also applies to Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (kb948465), who has reportedly updated several times and still is listed as an update.

    Some info: I'm currently using Norton 360 - like Firewall and antivirus.  I also run Spyware Doc.  I was attacked last year, computer failed and I had to wipe my computer. (Assistance with this manufacturer.)  I'm not sure it solved the problem.  Since then, I have had problems with the computer running the browser to leave/run slowly, slowly, the problems to open programs.  This may be due to the loop of 'Windows update '?

  • Where can I find a downloadable update and secure (from Snow Leopard 10.6.8) for my office iMac?

    First of all, forgive me if I'm not on any computer jargon as you young people are.  And I don't know the details of the operation of the computer.  If possible, I just need simple answers or solutions to my need.  Terms like "segregation" and stuff like which are wasted on me.  I have an old desktop computer Apple iMac 2008 model.  Running Safari Version 5.1.10 (6534.59.10) - I love my Safari.  My computer and some sites that I try to access from time to time tell me that my server is obsolete.  I guess that means I need an upgrade.  About 6 months ago, I've upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 using a disc that I bought at the Apple store for some time ago.  Recently, I added all of the 6 GB of memory (live RAM) so I have enough memory to upgrade.

    I don't want to take a giant to El Capitan step and risk problems.  I know 10.7 Lion is no longer available, but perhaps Cougar 10.8 10.9 Maverick is somehow available for download.

    Download codes for 10.7 and 10.8 Mountain Lion Lion are available on the Apple Store online.

    If you need specifically Mavericks 10.9 or Yosemite 10.10, go into a physical Apple store and ask.

    Any upgrade of the operating system can cause problems. Back up your data and control your applications for compatibility first.

    5. If it still does not work, try to open all or part of your MS Office applications.

  • Last update of security and Build ID

    Hi people,

    Simple question of El Cap here I hope...

    Anyone know why the last update of security (updated 2016-001) changed the version number? Now our Mac Book Pro and our iMac 5 k both show a build number of 15 1004. They had their own unique IDS. Which is what we used to identify our imaging process.

    Thoughts?

    We are the only users. We are not Apple. Only they can answer your question. For now, Apple wanted to change the version number to determine if the security update has been installed.

  • I downloaded the latest Firefox security update and my computer access is no longer the internet anyway, despite the fact that I'm always connected to the internet. Other browsers do not work either.

    Immediately after that I downloaded the updates of security of firefox that my computer cannot access the internet. I still have a connection without wire fine but Firefox, Internet Explorer, Itunes and other programs no longer have internet access, saying that there is a connection error. I tried to restore my system to an earlier date, but he said that a security plan it prevented to do.

    What is called the safety program? Is this by chance Win 7 Security ? There's a rogue AV app which prevents access to the internet by that name. It comes in many different scents, but it is basically the same product with different names depending on the sound operating system aiming to see screenshot.

    You have another computer, that you can use to download Malwarebytes? Or you can get a friend to download it for you and copy it to a USB key? Download here: http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

    You can use the USB to transfer the program on your own PC and then install it.

    2 UPDATES are constantly down since 12/16/10 Update: update of security for Microsoft Works 9 (KB2431831) and update of security for Microsoft Office System 2007 (KB2288931). I tried to REINSTALL... and CONTINUED on for more than a week now with no result. I don't get the error messages or codes, so I'm not sure what to do! They are considered IMPORTANT so I guess that I need these updates and I TRIED to REBOOT after updates with NO RESULTS as well. (I am running Windows Version 6.0 with Service Pack 2) The 2 latest updates only "UPDATED successfully", before the long chain UPDATES failed, which began on 12/16/2010 (as previously mentioned) were: update for Internet Explorer for Windows Vista (KB2467659) and Security Update for Windows Vista (KB2305420) someone knows what do to update failed?

    External drives (including flash & SDCards readers) should consider suspect/infected, too, at this point.

    After doing the clean install, do NOT connect any such player to the computer until you've taken care of everything in my previous post (especially KB971029 manually install).

    Before you transfer the data saved on your main drive, run a full scan of the system on data using your anti-virus/anti-spyware applications freshly installed & updated updated (and perhaps this scan online: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm).

    Speaking of which, you can consider installing Microsoft Security Essentials (free) instead of the application of McAfee or, indeed, any other app/AV security suite:http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/default.aspx

    PS: I would also say very strongly change all of your passwords both now and regularly thereafter. See:

  • System Restore and security updates

    A did the system restore for a March 22, 2010, as Windows Explorer had become deadly slow and I was unable to determine why. Seems fine now.

    My question is:

    Do I need to download and install new updates of security for Windows XP (professional sp3) published since the date of the system restore?

    Since the restoration Sys, add/remove programs list not the updates made since February 10 except for fix - update of safety and KB979306 - KB975561) while Microsoft Windows Update Online Service lists 20 people or more who have been previously downloaded.

    I'd appreciate it if someone could shed some light on this for me.

    Thank you.

    Yes, automatic updates is enabled. When I ran a manual check for updates through the http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com earlier today, some optional updates and as a bet to critical update - security update Cumulative for IE8 for WinXP (KB980182) - was listed so I downloaded and installed without problem. And you see it in the Add/Remove Programs list.

    My security services (Radialpoint) software is complete and up-to-date. I agree by my ISP. No other security/antivirus application is on my system.

    .... After looking closer - research on the site of microsoft for some of these updates and looking at the list of updates for my computer from there, it seems actually I could have all the critical updates.  And this long list updates at the end of March, were updates of the previous month.  I guess it is related to the 'unknown' question that I start around March 26 or more.  A question that I don't know led my Permissions being stripped - a lot of access denied.  Maybe that's why.

    If all goes well, everything is ok now and "fingers crossed" that won't happen again. I'll monitor the automatic updates and do a manual check from time to time to ensure that everything works as it should.  Receive your answer.

    See you soon.
