  1. Hello :) I've read so much on the Internet about the update App for Windows 10 - so I went to look for it on my own computer. It seems to be missing! I followed the instructions in the FAQ, I installed updates and restarted my computer. I'm using an Acer laptop, the Aspire V5-572P. It is running Windows 8.1. Help would be greatly appreciated :) View this thread

My family has centurylink internet at home and I use my own internet before, then It doesn't connection my own internet anymore and I use wifi from my neighborhood's internet. How do I connection my own internet? I'm not knowledge of computer so much. I would appreciate anyone who could help me with two problems. View this thread

  5. I recently purchased a Beelink Pocket P1 SoC with Win 8.1 Bing and wish to upgrade to 10. I've gone straight from XP to 8.1 so know little about 8.1. Can I do this (I can't find a product key if I need one, so is it a genuine OS?). Also how do I make sure updates are switched on please. View this thread

  8. There's an old saying among the people who actually have to fix things, it's aimed specifically at those engineers that like to change things. "If it works, DON'T FIX IT!". The latest update to MSE has changed the way updates are done and this is wreaking havoc with my firewall (Private Firewall 7.0) because instead of a known application (MSE) repeating a known task (updating the sig file) every few days it creates a whole new (hidden) executable and then tries to open several new processes with it that are unknown to the firewall. (yes my firewall monitors processes as well as internet activity) MSE used to work just fine, now that it's been changed, it's FUBAR. Ironically it was obviously not tested in the more secure environments. Is there any chance of getting this software repaired so that it functions like it used to before you "fixed it"?

  9. For all my other devices with windows 8 I have not received this update but for one of my devices i have gotten this update and I am wondering if it is safe for it to be installed or if it is anything to do with Microsoft. View this thread
  10. Hello, Whenever I scan my harddrives with System Protector from SySTweak, it tells me it has found a gen-v malware in my wextract.exe in one of the folder under winsxs. The exact location is: c:windowswinsxsamd64_microsoft-windows-ie-iexpress_31bf3856ad364e35_11.0.9600.17801_none_6803734021d5f70ewextract.exe Now I have tried removing this by using System Protector, but after about 10-12 tries, it still pops up whenever I let it scan. I have tried to manually remove it, but am being told that I am not allowed because I have insufficient rights (I have administrator rights). Also tried download the Microsoft anti-malware program and let it run. It couldn't find anything. The same thing happened with AVG, nothing found. But whenever I move back to System Protector it pops up again. A couple of days ago, I had the same "alert' with the same program on one of my mmo folders. So far I have been unable to get rid of it. Is there any solution to my problem? With regards, Mark Note: Running windows 8.1 Edit: Just tried hitmanpro. Didn't find anything either. View this thread
  11. Windows ALL versions LuckySearches delta-homes protectservice Xtab Picexa picture viewer The purpose of this discussion is to link the malware that installs itself as a group. I have noticed that removal guides often deal with only 1 issue & that will not result in a full removal of the applications. This is the full list of things you need to uninstall to fully get rid of the package. They; install as an extension, homepage & search engine add extra scripting to the shortcuts for every browser related program/app wipe history, account logins & defaults related to browsers, while also editing browser related links also they install in many locations in the registry may add an entry to startup (but are often not listed in startup) I have found nothing truly effective, except for manual removal. You need to do thorough searches for all of the names listed & work hard at removing them. The problem is that it can be removed, but unless you deal with the registry, it will lie dormant until a time or trigger event. It seems that it re-installs itself at around a month later & in re-installing you get the whole package back. The edits to the registry total around 20-40 deletions/modifications - substatial! (please do not edit your registry if you are unfamiliar, get some help) This guide helps to remove the added scripting to browser shortcuts, but does not go into details regarding the removal of homepages http://malwaretips.com/blogs/luckysearches-removal/ Internet Explorer - reset functions are useless, even removing IE as a windows feature will not result in the sufficient removal. You must manually edit all Internet options in IE & either use default or enter a preferred homepage address. Firefox - you are unable to "refresh browser" using troubleshooting. Manually edit the homepage address first through about:preferences. Remove the script on the shortcut, manually type bing.com in the address bar & search for refresh firefox. Go to the support.mozilla link that is listed & use the button on that page to "refresh Firefox" Chrome - a full "Reset settings" in Advanced settings will remove it from Chrome. Make sure you remove the addition to the shortcut. As the Windows versions progress, it becomes harder & harder to remove these items. I am hoping this discussion provides help & also leads to a review of the diminishing user control, that these programs can so easily bypass. W8/8.1 may be able to restore the system beautifully, but for many reasons that option may be unavailable. View this thread

  13. Afternoon We are experiencing the dreaded KB2966826 update being installed before .net 3.5 is activated. Our issue is there appears to be no way to uninstall KB2966826 to allow the install of 3.5. This is on a Surface Pro 3, and looking in the Uninstall an Update window, I can see it was shipped with it installed. There is no option to uninstall within the update, and running "wusa /uninstall /kb:2966826" causes a Catastrophic failure error: 0x8000ffff . As it was shipped with it installed, there is no restore point to use, and KB3005628 only works for KB2966827 and KB2966828 , not KB2966826. Is the a manual way to remove, or an KB like KB3005628 that targets KB2966826? I am quite peeved it was shipped with the update installed. Pretty much makes the machine broken out of the box for our uses. Aaron View this thread
  14. I am unable to uninstall or disable these extensions. They fill up the screen with ads and slow up processing or lock it up. View this thread
  15. Hello when I open my start menu the buttons look strange but still work just fine. Could this be a virus or just a glitch with my computer or hard drive. It is not really affecting my computer much and it has been happening to me for a few weeks now but I thought I would post this just in case it might be dangerous. I just assumed it is just a program bug or something harmless. better to be safe than sorry. Thanks for any help and have a great day. I am running a virus scan right now, I will post if a virus or malware pops up and I am using kaspersky total security for an anti virus software. thanks again. and it only seems to happen in the start menu. http://extremetechsupport.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/33abce3fddefd400c301e50107ac8a46._.jpg View this thread
  16. Win8.1 64 bit with Office 2007 / Office 12 SP3 I have tried to install each of them individually, in every case it rolls back. I've perused the community and tried a lot of things, one was to run sfc /scannow, whcih I did it told me I had some corrupted files, details are in CBS.log. 2015-06-04 18:44:59, Info CSI 00000453 [sR] Could not reproject corrupted file [ml:520{260},l:114{57}]"??C:ProgramDataMicrosoftDiagnosisDownloadedSettings"[l:24{12}]"utc.app.json"; source file in store is also corrupted 2015-06-04 18:44:59, Info CSI 00000456 [sR] Could not reproject corrupted file [ml:520{260},l:114{57}]"??C:ProgramDataMicrosoftDiagnosisDownloadedSettings"[l:66{33}]"telemetry.ASM-WindowsDefault.json"; source file in store is also corrupted 2015-06-04 18:52:10, Info CSI 0000088d [sR] Could not reproject corrupted file [ml:520{260},l:114{57}]"??C:ProgramDataMicrosoftDiagnosisDownloadedSettings"[l:24{12}]"utc.app.json"; source file in store is also corrupted 2015-06-04 18:52:10, Info CSI 00000890 [sR] Could not reproject corrupted file [ml:520{260},l:114{57}]"??C:ProgramDataMicrosoftDiagnosisDownloadedSettings"[l:66{33}]"telemetry.ASM-WindowsDefault.json"; source file in store is also corrupted Presumably, those are the root cause. How do I fix them? OK, how do I fix the corrupted files? View this thread

  18. I am pretty stupid when it comes to computers so I have a very basic question: Why are we doing this? is there some greater good coming from this 'upgrade' to Windows 10? will my computer be faster? longer battery life? faster downloads? easier to use? is it necessary or can I just plug along in my model T while the rest of the world crashes their Porch?

  19. Split from this thread. Unfortunately, Windows update (KB3035583) WAS installed on my computer without my permission and is noted as "Recommended". And yet, when I went to remove the update (per your instructions above), it's not even listed. Something is wrong!http://extremetechsupport.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/a84ef53ea9fdd26ee648b2cb7731cdbb._.jpgin the Update History. I think it's time to buy a MAC now. I can't stand this Microsoft Bull! View this thread
  20. I'm having trouble installing MSE in Windows 7 Home Premium because I cannot uninstall whatever remnants are left in the registry. Other than not being able to run MSE, all other functions are working fine. I have tried all the suggested "fixes" with no success. I'm planning on upgrading to Windows 10 when it becomes available. The question I have is whether the upgrade.......not a clean install in order to preserve current settings and programs.....might correct the problem? I believe Windows 10 uses Windows Defender instead of MSE. Any input appreciated. Thanks View this thread
  21. When I upgrade from Win 7 to Win 10 from the download, will it properly configure the Raid 5 striping? Or, will it require a clean install? If it requires a clean install, how do I acquire the program to clean install Win 10 View this thread
  22. So I click on the icon and there is the button to get Windows 10. And when you press it, you get a message saying ``we couldn't reserve your upgrade''. What gives? View this thread
