Solve : Avira Antivirus?

Answer»

I have tried unsuccessfully for MONTHS to try and delete this program. I have tried standard Uninstall; IObit Uninstaller; and tried using the Avira Registry Cleaner. Sooo frustrating!! Any help or suggestions to remove this program will be appreciated.They have a Removal tool...USE it.Easier said than done, since the utility is at best difficult to find.

Did you follow all of these steps? https://support.avira.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003162153-How-do-I-uninstall-my-Avira-product-Allan,
I opened my laptop this morning and Avira ANTIVIRUS did not show up in my Control Panel - Programs. I then restarted my laptop, and it appears Avira Antivirus is gone! THANK GOODNESS. What an insidious product! I went to the Avira support page and ended up by following the steps to "Removing Avira Antivirus in Windows 10 Manually". A SOMEWHAT complicated procedure, but hopefully it has finally worked.

Thanks for your help/suggestion.Glad to hear

Solve : Controller Causes PC to Lag!!!?

Answer»

Hey guys, I recently finished building my pc. The only problem I've had is that when I plug my ps4 controller into my pc to play fortnite, my whole pc lags. Around every 5-10 minutes, my discord and fortnite lag. This LASTS for about 10 seconds and then it's back to normal. When this happens my pc doesn't recognize my ps4 controller. When this happens, Fortnite drops from 300 FRAMES to around 20. My friends in discord say my voice also lags. One of my friends has my EXACT same build and he also gets this problem. This only happens on my ps4 controller, never on mouse and keyboard.

Solve : Win 10 update reset machine to near-new, profiles inaccessible, what next??

Answer»

After being away for a month, I ran Windows update, which had a lot to install. On restart, it does not FIND USER profiles. I connect (somehow) to what looks almost LIKE a new machine: INSTALLED APPS are present and run, and data files exist on my data drive, but all personalization seems nuked. What's going on? Best recovery option? Been a while since a backup.

Solve : Trying to batch delete line 3 from many .cvs files?

Answer»

We receive from our CLIENTS, thousands of Excel.csv files. Because of the the processes we RUN them through we NEED to open each file and manually delete line 3 from each file. It is very time intensive. What we do after we delete the 3rd line we resave the file in the same folder with a 2_ prefix to the file name. Is there any way to batch process these files to do this automatically? Appreciate any help anyone can give me. THANKS, SJK You can CERTAINLY accomplish this with many different batch processing tools. Personally, I would recommend Python.

This is a very similar question to yours, with example code. The only change you would need to make, is to have the program write to a different filename, rather than the original.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4710067/using-python-for-deleting-a-specific-line-in-a-file

I hope this information helps.......I'm sorry, I've never made one of these batch files before and I don't understand the steps either. I'd need the instructions dumbed down quite a bit. Thanks for any help that anyone is willing to offer.For starters you can download Python from the Windows Store. (I'm assuming you're using Windows 10?)

Solve : Is the PS/2 keyboard/mouse different from USB??

Answer»

I've had a hackintosh for about 10 years now and for some REASON the USB keyboard has been giving me trouble. I thought it was the MB, so I installed Windows 7 for the same MB that was running macOS. The USB mouse is giving me trouble (cutting in and out).

Someone suggested to use the other USB set (the board has 2 USB BANKS), and ALSO suggested that I try the PS/2 PORTS for the mouse/keyboard.

Q. Does the PS/2 ports work on a different channel than the USB does so that if my USB doesn't work under macOS, then maybe the PS/2 will?

Is there any USB 3/3.1 PCIe cards that work with macOS?

Solve : App needed to power off android 5.1.1 so battery will not go dead after 15 min?

Answer»

App needed to power off android 5.1.1 so battery will not go DEAD after 15 minutes of no activity.Which device?
In settings there is a battery saver option.

But if you want an app, look at these:

Sounds like the issue is that you need a healthy battery. So replacing battery in the device is probably the best fix vs trying to reduce drain of battery.Quote from: Geek-9pm on October 02, 2019, 11:11:46 AM

Some one needs to invent app that shouts smart phone off after 15 minutes of no activity just like on windows computers.Quote
Some one needs to invent app that shouts smart phone off after 15 minutes of no activity just like on windows computers.

If an app existed it would mean that you would likely miss phone calls because phone would be off when someone is calling. Additionally each time you wanted to use the phone you would have to BOOT it completely up.

I have a LG16C smartphone from 2015 and to extend my battery life I SHUT off the 3G internet connection. This way it can still be used as a phone. When I want to get online I enable the data connection to 3G do what i need to do and then shut off the data connection.

Phones will run dead faster when data connection is enabled and also far from a tower or inside a building where it needs to increase its signal to overcome loss to try to maintain handshake with tower.

If I leave my 3G data connection active and go into my work where there is no cell or 3G signal by smart phone will go MAXIMUM output to try to establish connection and battery completely dead in about 4 hours. With me shutting off the 3G data connection I can go almost 30 hours before battery dead.

Solve : Save a Word doc to a PDF doc?

Answer»

For some reason, my word docs can no longer be saved at PDF docs. I am not sure what the problem is or how to fix it. "Sorry but we couldn't find a PROGRAM to open this file" comes up on the screen as I try to SAVE it. Any suggestions?
Install Foxit Reader if you have FireFox.It SEEMS a Windows 10 update has BROKEN Word . There is 2 WAYS to fix this either update word to Office Word 2016 version 16.0.6769.2015. You can check your version with Help about word.

You could also try a word repair if you are using office 2016 you could try a repair as described here https://www.repairwin.com/how-to-repair-office-2016-2013-2010-or-2007/

And perhaps if all else fails try administrator command prompt, sfc /scannow

Solve : Need help with recorded lectures on Adobe Connect?

Answer»

Hi,

I not able to watch recorded lectures on Adobe Connect. Other people are able to do so, however.

I have tried everything on Adobe's website to solve this issue. I have also tried uninstalling the applications and re-installing them. I reset the laptop this morning, but to no avail. This is a new computer, which got delivered 3 days ago.

My exams will be over by Dec 11. I have 44 days to watch the lectures, study and appear for assignments. I had taken two days' leave from work to catch up on my studies. Those days have been wasted TRYING to open a single lecture.

I would be very grateful, if SOMEONE COULD help me in sorting this out.

Thank you for your valuable time.

Regards,
MansuHi Mansu

As time is of the essence can you download Speccy from here

https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy/download

Run it and when the report is finished select File and publish report and copy the report link in your next post.

This will tell me the hardware version and windows version as well as lots of other stuff necessary in helping you.

Thanks, Lisa! Appreciate it.Hi
I have had a look thru the report. First thing to try is installing and RUNNING Adobe Connect with Mcaffee Antivirus turned off.

Here is how https://www.linksys.com/ca/support-article?articleNum=135555

I suspect the Mcafee firewall could be blocking access to the Adobe connect content.

If it fixes it then you could use the windows firewall and Defender as security until your lectures are finished. If you do want to go this root then uninstall Mcafee selecting the option you want to re install later.


Thanks, Lisa. Initially, I had uninstalled McAffee as soon as I got the system. But when Adobe Connect wasn't working properly, I thought, I should install it again. So, I did that. Let me give it a try again. I'll uninstall it and make another attempt at Adobe Connect after work.

Thank you, one again. Hi Again

If the turning off Mcafee doesn't work, try getting Windows 10 up to date with all the updates.
Hi Lisa,

I contacted the manufacturer. They sent an on-site engineer. He found a lot of things off with the laptop - OS, software, hardware, motherboard... *sigh*

Such a disappointment. When you put all your savings into something, and that turns out to be defective... It's fortunate that I got to know within three days of purchase. I've RAISED a request for replacement.

Thank you for your help, Lisa. I really appreciate it. Good the company sent out an engineer sounds like something HP would do.

Solve : how do i build a setup.exe from scratch??

Answer»

i googled it all and it mostly seems automated with software and all u gotta do is punch in watevr u want and WRAP it all up in 1 package but, wat i'm wanting to do seems more "manual"

iexpress seems to b just a click/run/extract/done type deal and other software i've seen i can only assume trials/free ver or pay for full capabilities, howevr, i don't doubt they are capable of MAKING legit setup.exe's; i just doubt if they have the level of customization i'm LOOKING for.

anyway, the point is, i want to create a setup.exe that'll call from .bin files from disc 1-3 (or .bin files 1-3) in order and install components from them without any prompts saying "enter disc 2" etc.

if ther's any programming software i need or well-known setup.exe builder, lmk and i'll figure it out from ther with googling and watnot, any other tidbitz of info that'll point me in the right direction is appreciated as well.

thx for reading and taking the time to post/assist.

Solve : Just built a Pc what software should I download first??

Answer» EVERYONE USES different stuff (with a handful of exceptions) so a lot of the "must have apps" lists include programs that many users will never touch.

Just get the bare essential apps (or use Ninite) that you're definitely going to use. Then as you start to need other programs install those as you go.

Also I always download my essential programs and drivers ahead of time when I have some time to kill and just put them on an external or flash drive. That way once I format I'm ready to immediately start installing stuff. Some stuff (especially drivers) can be SLOW to download.Alternative to ninite is Patch My PC Updater
Patch My PC does what ninite does, is completely free, has more stuff in their software list to choose from and has a built in scheduler (always automatically keeps software on your computer that's listed on their big list of software available automatically updated on a schedule, something ninite doesn't have at least in their free version)

Very first thing besides the automated updater software though for me is to install a third-party antivirus software (I'd rather have one of those INSTEAD of just using the built-in windows defender AV of Windows 10 but that's just me...)

Solve : Unresponsive programs upon login?

Answer»

When I start my pc and login it takes about 1min 20sec for most of programs to become responsive. Half my desktop ICONS are white and my start up programs that appear in the hidden icons window at the bottom RIGHT (avast/malwarebytes) don't load until that time as well. MKV, jpegs, folders and some programs like nvidia geforce experience work though. If I wait at the login screen for the 1min 20sec and then login everything boots right AWAY and no problems. This just recently started HAPPENING 4 days ago and im not sure what could be the issue. Have not installed anything recently.Firstly it sounds like its time for a clean build of the system, maybe its been a while. Next I'd ditch the HDD and upgrade to a SSD which would give you a faster boot, and SSD's of 120GB can be picked up for around $19 with large capacity available for more money. Then if you need the HDD capacity and its a desktop computer you can have the HDD installed for the extra storage capacity. LASTLY the SSD will benefit you also by speeding up your computers ability to read and write from memory for the paging/virtual memory so the systems performance overall will act like a fresh new computer as long as the main board and video card or internal GPU are healthy.

Solve : Frame/motion interpolation (Win10)!!!!!?

Answer»

Recently I got into the whole 60fps soap opera experience, its great when watching documentaries!

So I installed SVP, it works, but the cpu load is crazy while my GPU is doing practically no work (this is already CONFIGURED to use the GPU to ASSIST) unless you turn the effect all the way down which makes it potato quality and artifacts everywhere.

I tried with Splash player which does a much better job at offloading all the workload to GPU, now my CPU ISNT working like crazy while GPU is only working at 30%ish, so everything seems to be great. However Splash player itself is a pretty crappy player on its own, you cant even rebind the keyboard SHORTCUTS ffs.... plus the frame interpolation from splash player is honestly not that good, still a good amount of artifacts even if i crank everything to max......

Is there any alternative? PREFERABLY something utilizing my GPU instead of working everything off of CPU.

I have nvidia gpu so amd fluid motion is not an option unfortunately.

Thank you.

Solve : Windows 10 loaded but still boots as Windows 7?

Answer»

I finally got my system to Multi-Boot and loaded the Win10 and it's Key codes without any errors reporting. However, the 10 page document that MS provide with the MS USB that I've read twice talks about loading an MS Tool to get new tools on my system. As that hasn't happened this may now be my problem, for some reason I did not see anything linking to Microsoft while their USB was doing it's update. Anyone who's gone through a similar problem installing Windows 10 please let me know.
The store that sold me the Win10 wants another $40 + HST to complete the install but not until next week after the Black Friday rush is over. Thanks, Gable. I forgot to mention that when the Win10's USB appeared to finish loading my system SHUTDOWN down or did a reboot, I don't remember which. When I rebooted with the USB still attached nothing unusual happened so I removed the USB stick and rebooted again and every time I boot up it shows as Windows 7. I don't know if this information makes any difference. Gable.Just curious: did you want actually want two operating systems installed to your computer (dual-boot) with windows 7 and windows 10 available and you can choose either one to startup into or did you want just windows 10?

Here is tutorial:
https://www.howtogeek.com/197647/how-to-dual-boot-windows-10-with-windows-7-or-8/


Quote

Be sure you have backups of your important files before doing this. You shouldn’t lose your files if you follow this PROCESS, but a mistake or bug could cause you to lose them. Better safe than sorry!

He also warns that you have to free up space on your hard drive for a new partition.

TAs to Thanks query, you must have bought Win10 already installed. The Win10 USB stick wants to dual boot from it's USB and the hard drive, you have no choice of just choosing one boot system. I can't believe I'm the only fool in Toronto who bought the Win10 software to install it themselves. Maybe it was bought by all experts or smarter people than me. Or, maybe their computer works better than my 6 year old HP Laptop.
I'm now waiting for a Refurbished Desktop computer that comes with Win10 Installed to replace my 7 year old Win XP that has a faulty CD drive among other problems.
The mayor problem with both computers is the Browsers don't support the systems any more and installing new versions of browsers always fails on these old computers.

As to Geek, thanks for the link address. You are a wealth of knowledge. I've already saved all my important files. I know you are getting another computer. I will still explain what I think the problem is.
One of the things which makes this difficult is the way in which Windows expects the hard drive to be partitioned. So you need to install Windows 10 first leaving space on the drive to load Windows 7.
There is a way to do this without loosing your Windows 7 as it is installed and setup now.

Also you could have backed up your Windows 7 drive. Loaded Windows 10 using the Windows 7 licence key as an upgrade and then restored the Windows 7 to a PARTITION on the drive. Then the Windows 10 would boot and offer to start windows 10 or 7.

I would have brought say a 500 GB SSD drive setup Windows 10 on the drive using the method above making sure windows 10 was installed at the end of the drive say the last 180 gb leave 20 gb free after the partition.

Then restore or copy the old Windows 7 drive to the 250 gb free area between the 100MB boot partition at the beginning of the drive and the 180 gb windows 10 drive.

Keep the old drive as a backup of Windows 7.

Like most things it is very easy if you have the software like Easues partition manager or Paragon disk manager.
Lisa, your how to solution is beyond my rookie computer knowledge and what you would do is expensive just to install an upgrade to my Laptop with Win10.
I'm not going to buy a hard drive just to install Win10, and you can't just plug that hard drive into a a laptop.
I bought a 64 GB USB to save all my important data and backed up the MS USB stick onto it.
I have to give up this installation and I'll pay the store another $40 + tax. Thanks for the reply anyway.
Gable. This reply is for Geek.
I went to your link for How to dual boot for Win7 and it took me over 2 hours to get through reading the documentation because every time I moved my cursor off the scroll bar I got a black screen the I couldn't get out of or delete. This black screen was for "How to Geek The Best Tech Newsletter Anywhere" which I didn't want to do.
This ended up my having to log back into your link again to continue scrolling the document at 6 or more times. Someone at Geek should fix that black screen so you can exit it without subscribing, it's a real pain in the *censored*. I also couldn't get out of so many black screens in my IE browser that I had to reboot my PC.

In conclusion, after scrolling most of your document and seeing everything you need to do, to link to, to download, to do this and that, I have decided I couldn't do all that and not go insane. I'm going to gladly pay the $40 + HST to the store that sold me the Win10 software and Microsoft should go back to providing a CD to install their O.S.
Have great day everyone, I need one for a change.
Gable. Good choice.
That #40 will be money well spent if it helps you keep your sanity.

My major problem now is it won't connect to my older USB modem now or my new USB modem which is only 1 month old. I also cant't Chat to Microsoft.
I tried everything and kept getting Not connected to any networks and saw that a dozen times. I tried Wi-Fi connection and it wanted ISP info that I couldn't provide before failing.
I tried Dial-up and it wants User name, Password and stuff the ISP never gave me but it claims they did.
I tried changing Firewall protections changes, but taht failed, some I reset them to defaults.
I also can't get their online Help info because it can't connect to the internet.I'm not going to go out and buy another mobile modem, that would be ridiculous.
I've wasted about 3 hours trying everything to get an Internet connection. If anyone has gone through these problems witrh Windows 10 or has some usefull suggestions I would like to hear from you.
I'm stumped now and it seems like my previous Windows 7 wasn't so bad after all, except I never had a backup, Unles the Windows 10 did a back-up I don't know about.
Thanks, Gaable.

Hi Gable.

When you install chrome onto a computer there is a small program which is loaded first, then the main program downloads. Even if you install the first part onto Windows 10 you need an internet connection to complete the install. You said on 07 December 2019

Please give more detail about the USB modem. If it is a 4g cellphone modem it doesn't need any password or user loaded it uses the cellphone card for the details. The modem if supported by Windows 10 will load the software you need to use it. I think from your experience with windows before 10 you are expecting to need to do steps to get things working. With windows 10 there is still some steps just different ones.
Like it is possible the modem uses usb for power supply and setup and the network is wireless so not thru the usb cable. Lisa_Marie,
I don't know the size of my old USB modem but it doesn't connect to the internet and fails with no Internet connection the same happens to my new USB Waiwei modem. I spent the afternoon on Windows 10 again and tried to copy Chrome, Netscape and internet Explorer from one of my USB's
but couldn't load anything into Windows 10. That USB usually lights up when it's connected but it didn't and I tried everything in Windows 10 to get it to recognize the USB. As usual nothing worked.
If only I had the fore-site to save all my browsers before I installed Windows 10. Thanks for the reply
Gable. If the USB isn't supplying power to any device even pen drives then you have a problem with the usb ports in the Laptop. can you plug the USB Haiwei modem into a usb charger close to your Laptop. Check if you have a power light and a 4 g lite which could take a few minutes to connect. When these are on then the modem is ready to except Wireless connections. I'm having to assume this as I don't know what Haiwei modem you have, like the model number would really help. Also if you can remove the main battery and disconnect the power supply for a few minutes to the laptop this could reset the USB power supply and get USB devices to work. Is this your original windows 7 laptop upgraded to 10 if so if you press the windows key and x key and then select device manager is there any devices with exclamation marks if so what devices are they.
I had the same problem with Wndows 10 still loading as Windows 7. The Installation did not get completed because first you set your set your boot up Esc, F1, to duel-boot your O.S. Go to advanced section and change Disabled to Enabled, save and exit the boot.
You will need a USB stick with 10 GB or more of free space on it so your Windows 10 USB stick can be saved to it along with important files and other stuff.
Your Install didn't complete that's why your seeing Windows 7 at boot-up.
Backup your Windows USB stick and maybe a Google Chrome browser and any important files you want saved. Then reboot.
Put your Windows USB stick back in and start it again in whatever computer port it's in.
If system wants to upgrade your Windows stick, say NO. That saves hours of your time and if you run into obsolete virus CHECKERS don't update them, delete them and save another hour.
When the Windows 10 completes you have to leave it turned on while Windows checks and verifies everything it can, which causes several system re-boots that takes at least another hour.
I spent over 9 hours making all the wrong choices.
Good Luck, Gable.

Solve : First timer! Windows 7 script?

Answer»

Good morning everyone-
I'm from Europe, I'm in my early 30s and in need of a bit of scripting help.
Sorry if my question sounds silly but I've always better versed in Hardware rather than software.

I'm in need of an allegedly simple script to run on in Windows 7 CMD, that allows me to SPECIFY a folder and from that (and its subfolders) extract all the FILES of a given extension, created the same day it's run.

Looked for something LIKE this for a while but only found variations that do not fill entirely the bill.
Is there anyone capable of helping me? :/

Thank you so very much in advance.Ok, Trying I managed to MAKE this- I'm actually using powershell instead of Xcopy... more flexibility.

Get-ChildItem c:\**source** -Recurse -Filter "*.jpg" | Copy-Item -destination C:\**destination** | Where-Object {$_.LastWriteTime -lt (Get-Date).AddDays(-1)}

My only PROBLEM is that it still grabs every files, despite the date filter...
what am I doing wrong?

Solve : Gave up Windows 10 backup, new problem installing HP printer.?

Answer»

Windows 10 wants hard drive BACKUP but FAILS to schedule date & time. I'm not going to TRY to install or buy a 2nd hard drive for my Laptop. If it fails I wont be re-installing Windows 7 either, I deleted that already. Worst comes I'll re-install Windows 10 from it's USB stick. To heck with a backup.

My new problem now is trying to get my older HP printer installed into Windows 10. I have the model number which Windows can't find and HP's Web address but can't register it in Windows for some reason. I've spent several hours trying to install the HP printer and failed.

I would prefer a solution to this problem comes from someone who has resolved any printer problem installation into Windows 10. No guesses please.
Thanks, Gable. What printer ? ?...Hint ...never rely on Win drivers...they should come from HP only...It's an HP DJ1000_J110 that was on my Windows 7 Laptop PC. They were cheap so I bought 2 of them just to get the ink cartridges. After much messing around trying to install it into Windows 10 and failing I now know that it won't install on any system newer than Vista. So, I'm GIVING up on that approach.

If I really need to print something I can copy it to one of my USB sticks and move it to my Windows XP desktop PC and print it from there.

My next move will be to contact HP's www.hp.cpm and get a version downloaded from them that will run on Windows 10.
That's all for this problem now, so bye until my next Win 10 problem, I'm sure to have some.
Gable. Did you see these drivers
https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/swdetails/hp-deskjet-1000-printer-series-j110/4066042/model/4066376/swItemId/dj-109017-2Check out this link too, another one of HP's pages for your printer (related to the one Lisa_maree posted in her prior post)

https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-deskjet-1000-printer-series-j110/4066042/model/4066376

As above but both our links were for 64 bit Windows you will need to select a different version and then windows 10 32 if you are running 32 bit windows
Here is the 32 bit drivers
https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/swdetails/hp-deskjet-1000-printer-series-j110/4066042/model/4066376/swItemId/dj-109018-2I give up trying to install my HP 1000 series J110 printer on Windows 10. I just wasted another 6 hours of it failing to get it to be recognized by Windows 10 even though the CD that contains the HP software was up and running.
After deleting my free AVG virus detecting software and according to Microsoft Edge software it should detect any viruses every week or so, which is what I thought might have infected my Windows 10. But, that's not the case.
I have come to the conclusion that I will only use my older HP printer on my Windows XP computer and if need be copy files from the Win10 to the Win XP for printing using by USB sticks.
So my next step will be to see if I can purchase a small cheap printer from Walmart that will be recognized by Win 10. That's where I bought my 2 HP printers from, one is my backup in case the other one dies. Maybe, there will be an Xmas sale on. Thanks for any help, bye for now.
Gable Gable,
You must go ti the HP site. Your problem is considered there. They know about it.

Solve : "passport"?

Answer»

I had a "DELL" computer running "windows 7". I used a "passport" external hard drive to make a copy of this computer. I then unplugged the "passport" and put it away. That computer died. I, now, have an "HP" running "windows 10". When I plug in the "passport", it asks me if I want to format it. I know this erases it. I want to download what is on the "passport" onto this computer. I know I'm doing SOMETHING wrong, but don't know what. I am far from computer literate. I know how to do a few things, but I don't SPEAK computer and if anyone TRIES to help me. Talk to me like your talking to a dummy, because you are!Hi Stan
Your WD passport drive should not need any additional software other than windows to gain access to the information on the drive.

Are you using the cable which came with the drive not a extra long cable and they work most reliably if you connect them to a blue usb port.

I would check in windows Device manager that there is no problems with the USB ports exclamation marks here is how to access device manager
https://support.microsoft.com/en-hk/help/4026149/windows-open-device-manager

If all that checks out you may have put a security password on the drive to check this you will need the software for your passport drive WD Drive Utilities and WD Security this software is available from here https://support-en.wd.com/app/products/product-detail/p/250#WD_downloads

If you used the WD backup program you will need the software from that site called WD Backup to access the backup.
WD also use Acronis for complete drive backups which is also available on the site above.

PLEASE DON"T FORMAT THE DRIVE yes it will loose your DATA

If the above still doesn't work then you will need a program like reclaime https://www.reclaime.com/

It isn't free but it will show what files are on the drive.I am using the cable that came with the device. I've been told that I should be able to connect it and download the information. Nothing is ever that easy!!!!!!!!!!!!! What ever happened to "user friendly"

Solve : Update.exe - Bad Image error?

Answer»

Just got a new pc, everything was running great until last night, I was downloading a few games, and my Discord crashed, when I tried to reopen was saying it can't update, than repeatedly failed to retry. After uninstalling to try a fresh install now im getting a update.exe error on nearly everything I try to do, and windows update can't update .net framework, 2 UPDATES pending and both fail. my error is reading this - C:\Windowds\Microsfot.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\clrjit.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it CONTAINS an error. try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system admin or the software vendor for support. Error status 0xc000012f. ive tried sfc and dism commands in cmd and they FOUND errors but couldn't repair them, any IDEAS?Since computer is new, you could use the system recovery media method to baseline it back to when you first set it up, and then try again. Whatever the last game or program was that you updated that caused the crash check to see if others had any ISSUES with that software or game running on ( assuming Windows 10 ). *If no issues found like yours with Windows 10, then try this software or game again and see if you end up with same results. If you do, then use pendrive again to set it back to factory and you can work with support of the game or software to find a fix or return the computer under warranty for another. Prior to returning it you could run CrystalDiskInfo a free utility to check the HDD or SSD health to see if that is the cause of the issue.

I bricked my laptop about a month ago when installing an older game that required a reboot after install. Fortunately I had the system recovery media made up on a USB pendrive to boot off of that pendrive and install it back to factory clean, and then I avoided installing that game that was made for Windows 98/Me/XP on Windows 10 that caused a Windows 10 boot loop.

I downloaded PC BASIC and saved a file, but can't find it. I read some info elsewhere about need to change a config file to tell it where to STORE files, but it's a little beyond my comprehension. Isn't there a folder where the files are saved?Knowing what sort of file (Extension) you downloaded would help, PDF for instance, in the mean time just go to the search bar and type in PC Basic for a start see what that turns up? It's the PC Basic program file, and I know what folder THAT is in, but the Basic file I created got saved in some mystery folder, not the same one. How do I find that file?Do a search using *. _____whatever the extension of the file names PCBasic uses...If WANT to find anything anywhere on my PC DOWNLOAD and use (Free) "Everything" for me is the BEST program for finding,it has been invaluable for me when facing a similar dilemma such as you..if it is there it will find it.

Solve : Best free HTML editors.?

Answer»

While doing a search, I noticed how few FREE HTML editors there are.
Here is a link:
5 Best Free HTML Editor Software
The five he names are:

CoffeeCup HTML Editor
Komodo Edits
NetBeans
Notepad++
Visual Studio Code

Only five? Really? Dos he think the others are worthless?
I can think of at least two that are not in his list.
Here is a better list:

The 9 Best Free HTML Editors


But that does no include the two I think of.

What do you like? Ii t free?

You can edit HTML in any text editor, and many word processors. There is a big list on Wikipedia, many are free. I don't trust 'X best [whatever]' click bait articles you see on the web. Often written in a hurry out of thin air by PEOPLE with no knowledge.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_HTML_editors



+ 1...Wow! Salmon Trout is right on. I ecall using some word processor programs to edit HTML code. You could wither edit the HTML text directly or do it as a browser page.
Nice link. Thanks. I notice it shows LibreOffice. I have used it to do some work on my web site. I use to use Crimson Editor which is free, but moved to Notepad ++. I was exposed to Crimson Editor through a College Book that was for HTML that came with a CD in the back of it that was bundled with Free and Trial-Ware. Another useful software that fell off the web is Mapedit to which it has become ABANDONED but is still Trial-ware if you find it. It would allow you to take a HTML document and draw a box around images on the page and it would allow you to map out hyperlink click areas over images and save the changes to the HTML file that your working in. It was made by boutell and it appears that they LOST their domain because its redirecting me to a different website when going to their site. More info here: https://www.washington.edu/webinfo/mapedit.html
Mapedit still works on Windows 7 but havent tried it on Windows 10 yet. Its on my 80GB Maxtor external hard drive from like 2005 which has all sorts of STUFF that is now a needle in hay stack on the web to find as stuff becomes abandonware, outdated, and discontinued as its no longer hosted on the web etc.

Crimson editor = http://www.crimsoneditor.com/ ( Note: The last release version is dated 2008 ) But I had worked with it from around 2000 up until I discovered Notepad++

Solve : Lenovo U41-70 Type 80jv loud fan and slow performance?

Answer»

I’m not really sure what is needed to be provided so i’ll just say my processor: Intel i5-5200U

Sometimes, my computer runs at 0.46 GHz instead of its usual 2.49-2.58 GHz. Initially, I got a can of COMPRESSED air and cleaned out dust while reapplying thermal paste. This SEEMED to work and my computer was running smoothly. HOWEVER this was a few YEARS ago.

Now, I ordered a better thermal paste and reapplied it, hoping it would solve my problems. However, nothing changed and it’s still running really slowly with the fan being very loud. When I check Task Manager, nothing is taking up a lot of CPU usage and I used RealTemp to check and see that everything is fine, around 40-50 degrees C. I also ran MalwareBytes to check but there were no viruses scanned. I am trying to see if Bitdefender might do a better job and catch something MalwareBytes had missed.

I was thinking that the computer is thinking it is overheating but it is actually not. Any advice is welcomed and appreciated, and I’ll be happy to provide more details. Thank you!

Solve : Do you know Python? You Should.?

Answer»

Look around for the most in demand programming jobs and Python will be in the top.
Some boys turn away because Python is just a script and not a compiler. That is not a good resown to ignore it. It can be incorporated into other THINGS that are compiled.

Anyway, I want to share this tutorial:

The 11 Beginner Tips for Learning Python Programming


It has a related video. So watch it if you don't like to read much. INTERPRETED versus compiled hasn't realistically been a consideration for ages. Mostly because the lines have blurred but also because languages like Javascript have become so CENTRAL to thinks like client WEB development and even Application development.

The way I see it there are 11 types of programmers: Those who are good with more than one programming language,those who will be, and those who won't be programming for very long.

Python is great for a lot of things, particularly for "answering QUESTIONS". Here is a fun one I made a while back that finds the total length of a ffmpeg supported file type in a specific directory (using hard-coded paths is a giveaway that I never really intended it to be portable!):

Hi, i am very BEGINNER in excel. I have a dedicated cell where randomly placing values by user to search results from a range. And I want to use another cell by using countif formula to see how MANY times the thing occurs within that range but my formula criteria is that randomly placing dedicated cell. I tried =COUNTIF(C4:J1215,"B2") but result is 0. What else should I do here to get the result?

If i fail to make YOU understand then plz let me know, i will attach a SNAP then.

Thanks in advance.Hi Tasfin
It appears that you are placing the cell that you want the results of your search to appear in is PART of the range you are searching. The cell that results of the search appear in must be outside of the range of cells that are being searched. See the attached JPG File.
Cell A1 = the cell that user places random values to be searched
Cell B2 = The cell that contains the formula
Cells C4-J17 = Range of cells being searched
Hope this helps.

Solve : Microsoft office 365 latest version?

Answer»

I copy a lot of text from the web every day and place it in Word. I generally use one Word folder for 6 months and then CREATE a new one because the last one loads too slow. Now, for some reason after starting a new Word folder, the page that I'm copying and pasting has been cut to about 50% after being PLACED in Word. I've played with the settings but am not getting anywhere. I use the Chrome browser with windows 10. I've tried googling and EVEN youtube to find how to reset the defaults thinking it might help but the feedback is USUALLY for Word 2016, not 2019.Copy and paste for any web page to MS Word may give some unwanted results.
I only used Notepad to do copy and paste.
An alternative is to use Word Pad.

I have MS Word on my system, but I often use other editors to suit a task.

Thanks for the ADVICE, I guess I'll have to go to one of those. The thing is Word had been working OK until I made a new document to continue as in the past. I can't figure out what could have changed.

My research says that I should clean install w/BIOS, not EFI.

Will someone, in plain English, walk me thru this. ThanksI do not know why you are having trouble.
It works for me and many others.
Have you looked an the stuff on You Tube?
Like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PI_UwJoFcU0

Some VERSIONS of 64 bit MIGHT require the new UFI. But I can not find specific info.It needs to be a clean install,,,backup the data you need before proceeding.Hey,

If its just bypassing booting from the cd, and entering straight to your version of win, you'll have to change the boot order so it boots from cd FIRST. You'll need to change the boot order in your bios. If unsure there is a YouTube video for that, tons in fact. I've put a link below, hope that helps.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QxrfEi-jL0


Meant to say once the boot order is fixed and you manage to boot from cd the vid Geek posted should be fine. so watch the change boot sequence one, then the vid from Geek and you should be up and running. Provided your SYSTEM supports 64 bit OS. Also as Patio said before doing anything do a back up of all your data.

Just built a new PC, trying to pair my Keychron K1 and Logitech Z337 speakers to it via bluetooth. For the life of me, i cannot get this to work.
I can confirm that it is NOT the devices themselves; both register and pair immediately to my phone (S10) and laptop (HP Elitebook).
I have tried removing any/all bluetooth devices and drivers, but windows automatically reinstalls them every time i reboot.
When i first set up the PC and got the keyboard, i was able to pair it. The computer had a whole host of other issues at the time though, all of which i cannot remember. I was also able to get the speakers somewhat briefly paired, when i turned off bluetooth on the laptop and phone - however, the speakers showed under OTHER DEVICES once paired, and i could not for the life of me get the computer to read them as a sound device/output to them. That time, i restarted, and was NEVER able to find the speakers again in the bluetooth search.
I guess i could have several bluetooth devices within close proximity to each other, not sure if this would affect it. I have a raspberryPi, the work laptop and my phone all within ~3 feet of each other.
I have tried reinstalling windows. I have tried formatting the M.2 and completely starting from scratch. Nothing is working.
Upon the latest FORMAT, when i booted up ArmoryCrate said i ALREADY had the latest version of the Intel Bluetooth drivers installed. How? Im GUESSING this might be done through the BIOS somehow?

Id really like to get this working as this was one of the main features for both building the new pc, and buying the PERIPHERALS that i did.

Ive attached a full dump of my system info, please let me know if there's any other info i can provide!

Solve : Random spikes that makes the PC unusable.?

Answer»

So yesterday I was playing League of Legends and everything was fine. At one moment the game started to lag. But the lag was like SPIKES. From 70 fps the picture freezes, but I hear the sound of the game. After that it started to spike with 5-10fps and my mouce was like stuck. I restarted the PC and it was ok.

Later I was watching netflix and it happened again, but at my whole windows. I was waiting 45-50 SECS till the PC accepter the ctrl+alt+del COMMAND.

After that I checked for viruses and malwhare with Malwharebytes and AVAST, nothing happened. I checked the performance at the GPU and CPU and it was something INTERESTING:
My GPU spikes from 0% to 100, then again 0-80; 0-60; 0- 90...
My CPU was the same. From 2,6Ghz it became 3,8Ghz and spikes just like the GPU.
I checked that when my PC was idle*

PC Specs:
Ryzen 5 2400G
RX 570
8GB RAM *idk what model is*
ASRock A320M-DGS
600W power

I attached a picture from my GPU performance when I made those tests*

Solve : Bottom Border isn't printing?

Answer»

Hello everyone.
I’m flying blind here….
Using Word 2007
My margin is at ½”
When Page border was 30pt PRINT PREVIEW didn’t have the lower page border showing.
When Page border was 24pt, the lower page border didn’t show.
The border must not be larger than 31 points (this is Word 2007 )
1 inch = 72 points
Am I screwed?
Thanks
Have you tried printing it from preview mode yet > >
I seem to remember this quirk from older Office versions.Thanks for responding
my Word2007 doesn't allow printing from Print Preview. I just double checked...
I an print from Print Preview.... but I GET the message "The page BORDERS of the section are outside the printable area of the page"

After a quick read, I am thinking it will be easier to just use my Am droid device.

Amy-hoe, I want to ASK; Have you EVER done this? At my age, should I even try?
