Registry items (reply) |
Posted by: Ray Date Posted: 56 minutes ago |
|
| Since those are registry entries, I would assume they are removed by RegVac. Just find them in the Undo section of RegVac, select them, and click on the Ignore button. |

| Thanks Ray - finally found them - I should have ticked off "search hidden files and folders" |

I use both A1 PC Clean and RegVac daily in the safest clean modes, and find that, with each clean, two registry items that have been put into my machine, which are needed to avoid the configuration process screen of Office and Outlook 2007 constantly coming up at every application opening.....Apparently, this persistent 2007 version configuration demand, each time these applications are opened, is due to the existing earlier program versions of Word and Excel, which I still need, not being able to peacefully co-exist with Version 2007 without the inclusion of two items written to the registry. After a lot of searching, I was able to find a fix for this in a blog of Microsoft Office Online. These additions are as follows :

| I went to the AVG site and it says for windows xp and up. I have the set up to it on my pc from years ago and I set it up on here a few days ago, but then it really startesd acting weird so I took it back off and now it is back to acting as it did before. What is bootllogginng and how do I do this??? I can't even go into safe mode and delete it cause it still uses windowas installer/uninstaller. |

|
| I would suggest that you check the Temp directory in Backup Properties (it is on the Advanced tab) of WinRescue and make sure the Temp directory is on a drive that has enough free space. |

I have two HP PSC 1315 all-in-one printers connected to two separate computers running WIN XP SP2 with IE 6.0 and Windows LiveOneCare as the firewall/virusscan software. Everything works fine with the printers except that the ink monitoring function RECENTLY stopped working on both. The HP Ink Monitoring software returns an error message saying it cannot establish two way communication with the printer. Nothing has changed in the overall software environment other than WIN XP and LiveOneCare updates. Does anyone have suggestions for remedy on the Ink Monitor?
Is there any third party software available which monitors ink levels on these HP printers?

| Using Winrescue on XP to backup data & registry to a 4 GB USB stick (Sandisk Cruzer). Free space on stick is 3.8 GB. Backup completes to the message "Backup finished 2043 files backed up" then reports "Not enough room to write archive". When backup target is changed to a folder on the hard disc, works no problem of course, and complete archive size is 2.6 GB which I can subsequently manually transfer to the USB stick no problem and with plenty space to spare. This problem has been ongoing for weeks. I know I have a workaround but would prefer to backup straight to the stick if possible. Any ideas? |

XP rescue CD (reply) |

| No, you do not need to make a new CD. That CD will work in SP3. |

I have a rescue cd made by XP rescue Cd. My question is now that I have upgraded to SP3, Do I need to recreate the rescue cd? If so what do I need to do differently. |

Regvac Updates (reply) |
Posted by: Ray Date Posted: July 21st, 2008, 7:03pm |
|
| The link for RegVac is on the RegVac page on our website. |
|
|
|
| It is located somewhere like, C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Owner\Local Settings\Identities\{89EF8948-5C9E-47BA-AEF3-2DB634FD6694}\Microsoft\Outlook Express\. The HP_Owner will be different on yours. Also sometimes it is put in the Windows directory but still hidden away like the above. |

Ray, just a side note but I've tried updating RegVac & A1Click Cleaner, using the http://www.superwin.com, and there is no "Registered Users" link at the top of the page. The bottom half of the red Superwin logo and the other red header at the right top of the page are missing. I just tried again after reading this question with the same results. I WAS able to update using the http://www.superwin.westhost.whsites.net/cgi-bin/registered.cgi?description=regvac link. And I just switched the last word to get the A1 Cleaner update. I would think it was something on my computer but this has happened for months now. Any ideas why??

Outlook Express (reply) |

I use Outlook Express. I cannot advise you about any other email program. I would think that they would have similar problems. I only have 3 gb and that is over 10 years of business emails. That is a lot of emails. If you don't have a lot of emails, you should to compact the messages and remove attachments. If you have a large amount of messages in one folder, dividing them up into smaller folders should also help. |

I would like to add my 2 cents' worth to this discussion. My mother has a Windows 98 machine and she has free AVG as her anti-virus program, and it still works, including the virus definitions updates.
One thing you can try is enabling bootlogging when you start up, that will show you step by step what is being loaded and you can tell if something loads that you do not want. |

Ray when I do a search I can find no .dbx files.
when I open the "outlook express" folder in "program files"with windows explorer I see no folders at all - just a dozen or so files. |
|
|
|
| Can you advise me? I have been using Outlook Express for years but I now have too many e-mails and the size of my store folder is about 6 GB which is causing the programme to run erratically and do strange things. As a result I am loosing valuable e-mails and information. Is there a better programme for e-mail and is Thunderbird good? I don't like Outlook. |

| I've been trying to install the Vista up dates for two months now. I would up date and my pc would start then shut down, until i uninstalled the up date. Once i lost all my data. I bought a external drive an sent a copy of my restoer points to it. Then i got with Vista tech support, and that didn't work. Well my pc finally started acting up so bad that i just reformated and did a new clean install then up dated the new patches. I did this without a fire wall and virus protection. Then loaded my virus and fire wall. It took me over four hours to get my pc back up and running like i had it before. Has anyone else had this problem? |

When you, or faulty software, or a virus messes up the registry and the computer will not start, the only solution is to restore a backup. Doing so can really get you out of a bad spot. The Restore Points are not available when Windows crashes, so they are no good in that situation. Yes, you may lose some recent changes, but usually the recent changes are not something you will miss. I have restored backups over a week old and not have any problems. Making more backups will lessen this problem. |

All of the messages in Outlook Express are kept in one directory on your harddrive. If you do a search for .dbx (right click on Start, select Search... from the popup menu, enter .dbx in "All or part of the file name", and click on the Search button), you should be able to find that directory. Each folder in Outlook Express is shown as a dbx file. If you find two or more different directories, the one with the more current files is the one to use. Copy the files to the new computer and then use File - Import - Messages to import the messages into Outlook Express. If it is an empty Outlook Express, you can just copy the files to the appropriate direc...

Hello, I purchased a Canon CanoScan 8800F scanner. It came loaded with ArcSoft PhotoStudioŽ 5.5, ScanSoft OmniPage SE4, and MP Navigator EX. The online instruction manual does not explain whether they all work together, or whether one uses a certain application for photos, another to scan text etc.
I have looked at the Canon website Q&A and it doesn't jump out at me either. Would anyone help?

It's true that Windows is constantly modifying its registry, mostly for what the system people used to call "housekeeping" - but most of these modifications have little long-term significance, and some have none. It has happened many times that my registry was seriously damaged, usually by installing some third-rate software or by something that happened during a power failure; sometimes it was so badly damaged that the system wouldn't boot at all. I fixed it by restoring the registry, sometimes from a backup a few days or a few weeks old. Sometimes some silliness like a program's recently-used-file list disappeared in the restore, sometimes some minor changes in system or application configuration...

Before you install a new antivirus, you're probably going to have to persuade Bitdefender to stop running in the background.
Reboot your machine into Safe Mode, manually shut down Bitdefender, and then use Windows Add/Remove Programs to try to uninstall it. I don't remember if Win98 offers you an option of Safe Mode with Networking, but if it does, refuse.
If that doesn't work, tell us EXACTLY what version of Bitdefender you're using and EXACTLY what the error message says.
If you manage to uninstall Bitdefender, go directly to http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html and install the free version of Avast. Until you have some anti-virus software installed, don't do anything on t...

Ok. Thank you so much for your imput Cassandra!!! I have been working fervently today on this issue as I do everyday, BUT, today with a different Idea. I deleted ALL the spyware, and anti virus stuff I could delete off of here. I went to Remove hardware also and removed ALOT of stuff. I ran my CC Cleaner 3 times just to be sure. I love that cleaner. I also went into the speed startup, and looked to see what ws being loaded and deleted a few things there and put some not so needed items on manual. MY PC runs faster than it has in years lol. BUT, it stills shuts down in the middle of "rebuild", which I assume is a program it is accessing, I just can't seem to pin point which one. I also can't delete bit defender anti ...

OK, if you and Ray don't mind my butting in, let's all handle your questions one at a time.
1. Also where can I go on internet to increase my knowledge of Computers?
I'm a big fan of books, strange as it may sound. If you can find one in a public library, try to get hold of something called The Secret Guide to Computers by Russ Walter, and read the sections on hardware, Windows, etc. If your library doesn't have it, we'll think of something else. In the meantime, also sign up for Ray's own newsletter at http://www.superwin.com/index.htm . It often has introductory topics of the kind you need.
2. You're probably right that the problems are mainly from v...

Yes I realize that you were being funny I typed my reply in humor I was also frustrated yesterday. So it was frustrated humor??????? I have the speed start up on my PC but it locks up my PC when I click on rebuild. So I don't click on rebuild I have been working on my PC daily practically non stop for 2 weeks trying to get this figured out. It is Windows 98. Which I like alot better than my laptop Vista. The AVG is no longer for win98, as I had it on here years back. I don't really want to upgrade, my PC is 8 years old, a Gateway, and I have NEVER had an ounce of trouble from it untill I came in last fall from being on the road, and my son had been on it all summer. I have been actually messing around with it sinc...
