this comes up when i click on: show me the message:
Runtime error
This program has requested the runtime to end in an unusal way.

how can I get this annoying persistent nuisance to stop coming up?
I was dragged kicking and screaming into Vista and truthfully am almost liking it (or not hating it as much as I thought I would).
HOWEVER, this is the kinda crap that will make me regret it.
This has happened before about a week and a half ago, but i have a dell studio 15 with Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit, and this program message pops up with the title "A program can't display a message on your desktop"- The program may need information or permission to complete a task.-
Program details: Message title: Access to file was denied
Program path: Program Files/Network Associates/VirusScan/Res09?VshWin32.dll
When i clicked "Show me the message" my computer went to a gray screen (with older-themed windows looking message) there were two windows this time, one giving me the option to return and the other box showing a hand holding a moving green bug type thing, from what i remember it said this file is infected and needs to be deleted then replaced... it gave me a long list of about 8 or so options and i clicked 'delete' and nothing significant seemed to happen, because the 'delete' option was still there, so i clicked return and nothing had changed, my windows were still up and everything.
Somehow I acquired Windows Power Shell. Briefly what is it? Do I need it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with Vista. Recently, if I don't use a computer about 20-30. minutes and then try to run something then the explorer hangs and doesn't, ALT + CTRL + DEL combination doesn't work . If a program was run before the shell hangs then it will continue to work whereas the explorer is hanging. I have tried to left performance monitor opened and found that the CPU and HDD were not used while the shell was hanging. If I active use the computer without long inactivity then nothing happens.
View 9 Replies View Relatedi think i accidentally deleted a shell registry that makes my windows explorer open up new windows all the time without a option to open within a window but always to open a new window whenever i double click a folder. How can i resolve this?
View 5 Replies View RelatedFor some odd reasons, after a friend had install a software for me on my computer, I have shell common files icons showing - mostly associated with video or music downloads, copy and/or when making my own video (using either sony vegas or movie maker). I think it's a bit bothersome because when I transfer file to thumb drive or cd, I have to make sure the shell files are attached. Also since then , most video and music files in my music or video folders have added shell files in folder automatically. Why did that happened and how can I fix the problem???? I can't seem to figure it out on my own!.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI searched the web in many places and could not find a way to completely change my system to not use Segoe UI fonts. I have a new 21-inch CRT and Segoe UI looks terrible, especially with ClearType turned off. I do not need ClearType at all on my CRT monitors. I need to use CRT's because I often need to change resolutions.
I looked everywhere for a solution... so I them messed around with the registry, and stumbled on something that may truely remove Segoe UI from my user interfaces and dialogs. I do not know how this works on other systems, or systems with Office 2007. I would be very interested in the results that others get, and also to see if someone has Office 2007 that can try it. I included the .REG files in the zip of this little app, so you can open those and see what I do. If it works, or not works for you, let me know. See this somewhat private link in my blog for the tools and .REG files...
I'm tryng to solve some issue on my Vista x64 based pc.
I've installed (as always in all my pc) the Unlocker prog ( HERE )
No problem during the install, Then I setup the program to work with Admin previlege(Run as administrator) but.I don't have any unlocker shortcut in my explorer extension (to be more clear.I have no Unlocker choice with right click on the file I want to unlock).I have the Unlocher assistent in the app Bar, but it is useless.
I am running WinRAR 3.71 with x64 Vista Ultimate. The program runs fine, however I am unable to get the shell integration to work. It was enabled and I reset it, right clicked on a rar file and it still was not showing me the options of WinRAR.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy work setup is Vista Enterprise 32 bit with SP1 and Office 2007 and IE7. I am writing a browser based application using Visual Studio 2008. I have the following piece of jscript code:
function runFile(_fileName) {
var objO = new ActiveXObject('WScript.Shell');
objO.run(_fileName, 1, false);
var objO = null;
}
and it works just fine for various file types (HTM, MSG, PDF, TIF and TXT) where it opens the application that has been associated with the relevant file extension and displays the file. But when the code is passed a .DOC or .XLS file name a copy of the relevant applicaton instance is started but before the document is displayed the jscript code gives the error message 'Unknown exception' with no further details. why the .DOC and .XLS files are not opening as expected?
Running Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 on HP Pavilion TX 1250ee laptop. I have a problem logging into Windows Vista. I get the screen up which allow me to select my account and enter a password. Then I get a welcome message. Trouple is it goes no further. The Screen went black with only a white cursor showing. Seconds later, an error showed up saying failed to set data for 'Shell' I've left it for few hours but nothing changed. I did some troubleshooting like testing the Hard Disk using the Built in Self Test in BIOS and everything was pass. I tried to login through safe mode and fortunatlly it's ok. but I don't exactlly know what's the problem? Before it did happen I was creating CD recovery for my computer using the Recovery Manager. Also, there was some updates from Windows which I think what cause the problem. I'm still troubleshooting and waiting for any respond from you guys.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've had some issues with the winrar shell integration, the program works fine for extracting files with doubleclick to open it up, extract to etc. But using rightclick, drag, extract here just doesn't do anything. I figured it had something to do with the untrusted programs popupthing, so i tried disabling the Windows Defender which still didn't help.

I updated the driver for the built in wireless card with out any results. I also tried a plug in wireless card which windows detected and said was working properly and this did not work either. This leaves me to believe that something is wrong with the OS. I can get on the internet via dialup modem and also by the ethernet connection with a DSL modem. I have been to several hotspots that I know have wifi and no networks show up. All critical windows updates have been installed.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm on Vista x64 Home Premium (SP1), and I have a problem. When my laptop got shipped with Vista, I disabled UAC on the spot because of various software incompatibility. Recently I have been led to enable it again because of some failing software. It didn't solve the problem and thus I decided to disable it again. However, this time, when I go on to User Accounts and I click on the "Turn User Account Control (UAC) on or off", it brings up the popup that asks me whether I want to proceed. I click "Yes", expecting the dialog box to show up so that I can successfully disable the UAC. But the dialog box never came up. The UAC popup just closed and the computer remained motionless. I tried rebooting, and manually deactivating UAC using command-line prompts which yielded "Access Denied".
And now, I cannot use my computer effectively, as most of my software is uncompatible with UAC and fails to run. Is there any way to fix this ? I only have one account that is being marked as Administrator, and it seems quite strange that I can't set UAC back off again. Google search didn't help me a lot either - most links only tell me how to actually disable it, which fails on my system....
if it is advisable to disable superfetch??, and if so, will it improve overall performance?
View 6 Replies View RelatedIs it plausible to disable parts of UAC? this because I hate the parts -blocked startupprograms (in dutch geblokkeerde opstartprogramma's) -'are you sure you want to proceed'-messages (weet u zeker dat u hiermee door wilt gaan) , but the other parts are very usefull. so is it plausible to disable these parts? the only thing I know is how to disable the whole UAC.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently bought a new PC with Windows Vista on. It supports HD audio, and came with Realtek HD Audio Drivers. I do however only have 2 "normal" speakers -- no surround equipment or anything like that at all. And I think the audio sounds weird now, compared with my old PC, which did not have this "HD Audio" thing. Is there any way to go back to plain old audio? Maybe it can be done in the Realtek HD Audio confguration in the Control Panel?

I'm not one of those NOOBS incapable of doing my own updates, why does MS deem fit to kill my machine and check for updates so often?
