Yo guys it's meAgain
I need my own section for Laptop problems I think.
This time it's a 'temporary profile'. It starts up like a complete different 'Profile'. Like all the shit I had on my Desktop doesn't have this profile. If I go on Google Chrome it asks me for acces.
I don't know what I did wrong because yesterday it was completly fine.
Do you guys have a solution, and are wanting to tell me that, I would be soo thankfull...
Also if you have a solution please be clear because things like: 'delete the ......' I probably don't know where it is :sleep:
Thank you so much for reading and I hope I get this solved aswell.
Cheers, OversizeD

To be honest I don't quite get what your problem is, but since you said yesterday it was all fine: How about a system restore to the earliest point available?
-
System restore.
-
maybe i entered a guest account and not your own profile while starting up...?
-
How do I do a system restore? :lol:
maybe i entered a guest account and not your own profile while starting up...?
It starts up just like normal saying: Welcome and the spinning thingy.
It doesn't ask me for account switching. It boots and shuts down alot slower now.
I don't know what I did wrong because I do what I normally do.
Thanks for the replies so far guys. :wub:

Start - accessories - system tools - system restore.
Try resetting bios settings to default & maybe scan your pc with malwarebytes. Are you using any reg cleaning "pc optimizing" software? If so, delete them & avoid using them. The only good one that exists is Systweak CacheBoost, as it doesn't alter vital pc configs. Maybe try defragging your pc if you don't have that scheduled, set it to defrag once a week to avoid clusters. Scan your pc with MalwareBytes with full scan.

I am not using anything. I have a virus scan on it. And the rest is Java, Winrar and shit like that. + Minecraft and GTA SA. That's basically everything I put on it.
-
Malware/spyware isn't the same as a virus & even if you have real time shields & firewall up, there is a good chance your anti-virus will not pick up on them, scan the pc in any case to be sure, Malware Bytes is a freeware & the best of its kind.

do you use windows xp?
-
do you use windows xp?
No Windows 7 Ultimate.
Ehh, it was fixed for 10 minutes... and now it's whining about 'Windows Explorer doesn't work anymore'
If somebody knows the cure for this. I'd be greatfull. If that thing stops working you're screwed. :ajaja:

You can just start it up again if you open task manager, start a new task and fill in "explorer.exe" without the quotation marks.
Though that doesn't work for me, which is why I open up a command prompt as admin and type "sfc /scannow", again without the quotation marks.
-
I'm sorry but I don't really understand it.. :(
Edit: I think I understand it now...
You want me to go to Start and at Run type in Explorer.exe?
If so, than there is a problem. There is no Taskbar or anything what so ever. All I see is an empty Desktop.
Edit2: 'No system restore points have been made on your Computer's drive.' Something like that it says...
Don't know how to fix that.
It says create a restore point but doesn't help me out much either.
-
You have your monitors turned off then, nothing you can do about that now, you should turn them back on in case something happens again.
And as to what Mugetsu said, you need to open up taskmanager via ctrl + alt + del -> task manager, right click in the tasks menu, or see the option in the lower right that says "new task", pick that & type in explorer.exe & press ok. Same with the command prompt, just type in cmd hit ok & copy the scan line Mugetsu posted in the command prompt, then hit enter.
-
I did exactly what you told me to do. And it opened up 'Libraries'. I don't know if that is supposed to happen. But it is what happend.
And I should mention. When I boot up my Laptop and it's on desktop; I click on Google Chrome, it load it shows the loading thingy as cursor. Then it highlights it in the taskbar, then suddenly it disappears. Hope you understand what I tried to write. :P Maybe there is a cure for that aswell. :unsure:

Nobody? :unsure:

Things are easier is I ask you guys for help. You know what you're talking about. :)
'Best Answer - Chosen by Voters
you can do this two ways, first you can keep pressing F8 on startup that will give you the option,second way is to open all programs and find dell data safe click on that and you will get the chance to restore to factory condition.'
Do you perhaps know which option I need for it? It gives me a few different selections.
Thanks so far Sheeptea
-
Well, if your computer model is Dell you can use that guide, but just to say this simple;
Control Panel -> System and Security > Backup and Restore
you'll find "Recover system settings or your computer"
-
I can't open anything. It's also really slow. So I think I have to stick with the F8 option.
The choices it gives me are:
'Repair your computer
Safe mode
Safe mode with networking
Safe mode with Command propt
Enable boot looting
Enable low resolution video (640x480)
Last knows good configuration (advanced)
Directory Service restore mode
Debugging mode
Disable automatic restart on system failure
Disable drivers signature enforcement
Start windows normally'
I don't have the guts to just click on the one I think is correct. So I hope you can tell me that.
I completly trust you now :D
By the way if have an Acer Aspire 5552G don't know if it's important to know. But it's some information atleast.
-
do Windows + R, type explorer.exe, then go to the controlpanel blabla and restore.
-
Noob for life. :cheernutz:

That's exactly the problem. It doesn't pop up.

Thanks for the usefull post! Helped me out a ton. but not really
-
Does your Windows Start -button work? If so, press it and type in the search bar; System restore
-
But he doesn't have restore points, he has had his drive monitoring turned off.
Tbh I don't even understand what your issue is anymore OD :unsure:

Well... The 'Temporary profile' seems to be fixed. But I can't open anything.
I got Chrome pinned to my task bar. So when I click on it; I should open up. It's loading, and the mouse / cursor thingy changes to the rotation circle loading thing. And the Chrome like 'highlights' like when it's opened but then it like turns of again.
another example is like: I have Samp short cut on my desktop. I double click on it, it opens. But when I try to join PSA it connects and says: Server didn't responds. When I am obviously connected with the internet.
I don't know what is going on. That's why I ask the smart side of GTAS. Hope you understand it now.
I can try to record it with my super duper awesome mobileL O L
-
Sorry for another bump but I'm really desperate for this. :( :(
-
Get a new laptop.
-
I'm saving money for a PC. Laptops are fucked up. If I knew this shit at the beginning, I would never have bought this laptop.
But for serious now. Please give me a solution. :O
-
try to make a new profile then copy all your private files and stuff from C:\Users to the new profile and that's it!
Just get started with a new profile and forget the whole old shit man! :L
-
And how do I do that? :P

alright, you click the start button then you go click on that profile photo, click manage another account and you will find create a new account option...

Did that and now it gives me a blue screen. It's not the blue what you expect but it's more like greenish-blue... And I see the cursor. That's probably not supposed to happen is it?
-
Holy shit, wtf have you done with your laptop??
Try running a clean boot & maybe get a new anti-virus, as they sometimes conflict with os.
-
I'm starting to believe that your laptop can't be repaired anymore. Might be motherboard fault and fixing that is fuckin' expensive, so just buy a desktop and be happy. I can help you find the parts you need.
-
Start windows in safe mode and make backups of your important files. Then throw in the Windows CD and boot from it. Format the HDD, re-install the OS and all the required drivers afterwards. That takes an hour or two, but then everything should be fine and that's less of a struggle man.
-
;_; that sounds devastating!
Then throw in the Windows CD and boot from it
I don't have the CD. I bought this laptop and Windows 7 was automatically on it.
It said I had to make a Back up of that, and when I tried that it didn't work. I put an empty CD in the driver thing and clicked on Back up. Then it shot it open again and said I had to put an empty disc in it. It did this with all the disc I put in. So I hope my mothers neighbour can fix it again... :blink:
Edit:
Everything was formatted not even a week ago. I don't know what I do wrong but apperantly Laptops don't like Minecraft / GTA or Pokemon Showdown lol.
Edit2:
I can help you find the parts you need.
I will adventually buy a Computer. When I find one I will put the specs here. And I hope you want to tell me if it's good. :happy:
-
Sorry for yet another bump... But maybe you guys can tell me
- why my laptop keeps updating when shutting down
- keep freezing
- doesn't open Internet when i'm connected :|
-
This doesn't seem like a hardware issue to me. Just readout and mark down your Windows key. Then download the trial version from Microsoft and burn it to a DVD. Make backups of important files and format. Re-install the OS and you'll be able to activate your Windows with your key again. Also re-set the BIOS. A shit load of updates is normal after a OS re-install. Also install all required hardware drivers.
Laptops don't suck at all. Do the mentioned stuff above and if it still fucks up, it might be something hardware related for real. But please don't go like :| :| :| :( :( :L :wacko: :( :( :|
And if you're going for a PC, build one yourself instead of buying assembled hardware crap. That's what really sucks. ;)

Only thing you can do now is.
