Trips

What game would you like to play? Post suggestions here. I'll be the game master. And go!!!

Good to be back. Joined in 2018 and seemed to get lost in the domain shuffle. Back now! Good to renew some old acquaintances.

Great guide! I fumble around when I build. Maybe this will help me. Getting ready to build a mini ITX box.

I tried it and it did work. Maybe you're missing something.

I have added a new dark style for those that prefer a darker style. You can use the switch to the left of the search icon to switch easily from light to dark or dark to light.

I found this on another forum and used it to fix a problem like yours. Try this and see if it works. Method 1: Please follow these steps: Click on “Start” and type “cmd” (without the quotations). When you see the “cmd” icon, Right Click on it and select “Run as administrator”. On the open Command Prompt window copy and paste the commands (all at once): net stop wuauserv net stop cryptSv net stop bits net stop msiserver ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old net start wuauserv net start cryptSvc net start bits net start msiserver pause I have also attached a file you can run that will execute the above commands for you. To use the file unzip and then right click and select run as administrator. Wait for the process to complete. Close the Command Prompt. Now, go to Windows Update and check. If it does not help, then try this. Method 2: Please use suggestions provided in this Microsoft help article and check the issue. Unable to install updates in Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2509997 Important Notes: While performing chkdsk on the hard drive if any bad sectors are found on the hard drive when chkdsk tries to repair that sector if any data available on that might be lost. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Back-up-the-registry You may also try to install the KB2929437 update manually from this link: Download Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 7 (KB2929437) from Official Microsoft Download Center I hope this helps. If not post back. fix.zip

I have updated the site to a new more modern style. If you encounter any problems let me know and I will correct them.

It won't be in recycle bin. When deleting off USB or any external drive the files don't go to recycle bin first. Go to file menu and see if the option to undo is active. If it is you can recover the file.

I know this is a spam attempt. At some point this user will register with another username and post a miraculous way to recover deleted files with some fantastic new software. Problem is that strategy won't work here since new members can't post links until they prove themselves not to be spammers. It is possible I'm wrong and the person actually is looking for help so I'll try to help. Have you tried the option with Windows Explorer to undo the delete? There is always a history of deleted files with undelete option if the system wasn't restarted after deletion.

Simple search and replace should work.

Glad to hear you got it working. Your English is fine.

12 hours is not normal although I have heard of some taking longer. I had this happen to me and I shutdown the computer. Shutdown not reboot. When I restarted it reverted back to before updating. I started the updates again and it worked as expected taking about 30 minutes.

I am the owner of Extreme Tech Support. I have been involved with forums and community building for several years. I decided that the computer help niche needed a new site to infuse new ideas. I hope to bring a new perspective to the PC and computer help World. Finally I'd like to say hello to all visitors and future members of Extreme Tech Support.
