by Guest wei heng lim- 0 replies
- 417 views
I bought a new laptop 2 days ago and it was working very well. However, it seems like I have 96 Windows Updates that I need to install, so I installed them and restarted the laptop. But I got an error message stating "Failure configuring Windows updates. Reverting changes" after it finishes configuring. And then it goes into a loop, going back to configuring after reverting the changes. I managed to get back to my desktop after performing a System Restore but my laptop has become very slow now. I checked the task manager and it showed this : http://i.imgur.com/L9L1WSS.png . I tried the solutions that Microsoft Support gave, namely installing Windows Update in a clean boo…

My WMP keeps losing my files (Music). Even when I've followed advice from a previous discussion on Sept. 2010 about the database being corrupted, I'm still not finding albums in my library. They use to be there. I know, because when I go through my Zune collection, all of my music is there. And Zune syncs everything from WMP. What is going on? Can I copy/sync these lost albums from my Zune collection to WMP? Continue reading...

Recent Windows Upgrade Contained A Virus ?? ?
by Guest JKB 101- 0 replies
- 292 views
On June 11, 2014, Windows downloaded, & installed half a dozen security-related Upgrades to my Windows 7 64-bit system, & within hours my anti-virus program, Rogers Online Protection (ROP) (actually Bit Defender), alerted me that it had detected a virus (Gen:Variant.Kazy.361890) in temp.edb buried in the windows\softwaredistribution folder. ROP declared my computer was not virus-free, & it could not clean it. I immediately did a complete scan, with the same ROP, & nothing was found (although 56k of items were 'Skipped'). Research online revealed that the softwaredistribution folder is used exclusively by Microsoft for down…

I more or less ended with accidentally installing a virus named "SpeeDial". I've dealt with a similar problem before (delta search), meaning I had dealt with this kind of situation before, or so i thought. Noticing I had gotten another browser highjacker I thought i'd do what I did Delta Search, which was going to the control panel and uninstalling all the programs related to said virus, however this time whilst trying to uninstall Conduit Search Protect I recieved a error message saying that I did not have sufficient access, even though I'm logged in as a admin (100% sure I'm an admin, i tripple checked). So far I've tried to tried restarting the computer, running the mi…
