Lately whenever I try to download any file from anywhere I get the following "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" error: Assertion Failed!
Program: C:WindowsSysWOW64verclsid.ex
File: D:
tmdssecurityproductsantim...dynami...ues.cpp
Line: 979
Expression: false
For information on how your program can cause an assertion failure, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts (Press Retry to debug the application - JIT must be enabled) The thought just occurred to me that there might be conflicting mozilla settings, since I'm using a hard drive (d that previously had mozilla on it, but I didn't remove the data.

I'll start by pointing out that I am by no means a rookie with computers. I've used and done troubleshooting on PCs for quite a while. Be that as it may, this issue is a new one to me and simply beyond me. Whenever I attempt to download a file via either of my internet browsers(IE/Firefox) the files simply vanish. I can watch the files download and observe the progress bar. I can even repeatedly select the un-finished files I'm downloading and check their properties and confirm the files are the same size as the progress bar indicates. However, the moment the download finishes, the files simply cease to exist. The icon vanishes from the destination directory. It does not appear in any other directory, and any uses of search of the entirety of the hard drive for the filename of the vanished file come up empty.
Perhaps even less sensible, repeated attempts to download the same file will sometimes result and a .part portion of the file remaining present in the destination, but any attempt to delete the file results in an error message telling me the file is not resent, verify the location and try again. Weird given that I can right click the .part and select delete or drag it into a recycling bin only to be told the file I just clicked isn't there. And a last note on the issue, is that I have managed to 'trick' the problem with a large file download on firefox by downloading it repeatedly and attempting to open a previous vanished download of the same file in the same destination as the current download reaches about a half-second from completion itself. Can't really explain how I am able to pull that one off.................

I have run into a problem, that is I can download zip files (i.e. I can see them coming across the network with device manager and see them building up in the download window and see the file name and part name in the destination directory) but when the download completes the part file disappears and the working file has zero bytes in it.

I have disabled some start up programs I do not want to sart up in Vista. I keep getting this annoying message reminding me of this when Windows start and when it is open. In XP there was a check box to keep this from showing, how do I turn this off in Vista.
Also I sometimes get files by e-mail such as Access programs that I am working on for a customer. Windows Vista will not let me open these. Message: This file is located outside your intranet or on an untrusted site. Microsoft Access will not open this file due to potential security problems. To open the file, copy it to your machine or an accessible network location. I copied it to my D partition but still Vista will not let me open it. I had to copy it to my zip drive and then open it on my XP computer.

I have a train collection and have a program called TrainTracker that I use to keep track of the pieces in my collection. I have the program on my home PC, which runs Widows XP, but when I bought my laptop about a year ago with Windows Vista Home Premium, I copied the program from my PC (Windws XP) onto a jump drive and pasted it onto my laptop (Vista). Everything was going according to plan.
Now I take my laptop where my trains are and I add a bunch of pieces and I want to copy the file from my laptop (Windows Vista) onto a jump drive, so I can then paste it onto my PC (Windows XP) and have the updated TrainTracker, with all the additions I've made. Well, when I copy it from Vista onto a jumpdrive, all it will copy is the original program which I transferred from my PC onto my laptop. It won't copy the new items I've added onto the program.

5 days ago I posted a problem about not being able to download exe files and not being able to install programs from CD's. The problem had been addressed a couple of years ago and none of those solutions worked, along with no recent listings of the problem. What did I do wrong on my post that I had no comments, suggestions or assistance offered at all?

Everything I download ends up with a exe.part file. It's never just .exe. I tried download registry cleaners and what not but I cant open any of the files. Everything online says download this program to fix .part files but those files are also.

All of a sudden I'm getting an error message saying I don't have permission to save files in the Download folder in Vista Ultimate SP1, using IE 7, and to contact the administrator for permission. I'm the only one using the puter and it's never done this before today. What went wrong and how do I fix it?

ok so i use vista home premium, have firefox installed. I cannot download anything using firefox or IE. whenever i do try to download the download window comes up and downloads all the way. I do not use desktop as the place where files are placed so it doesnt get cluttered, but it is in a folder on the desktop.
When it is done downloading there is nothing in the folder. It will be there while downloading ( and i can do anything with it), but when the download finishes the file dissapears and is unable to be found anywhere. It is not hidden or anything. I've done full advanced computer searches and the file cannot be found. I have AVG, but it is disabled.
I am in a few college classes and another problem that i am having is that when i try to take my homework off the site (usually in a .zip or .doc format), i have an error that comes up saying Cannot open C:UsersRyan'sAppdataLocalTempStudentDownload.zip (or .doc) this is a HUGE!!!problem as i cannot afford to run back and forth to the college everyday trying to get my homework done.

If you go to Softpedia.com and click the Windows button you'll see an announcement and download links for Firefox 3.6 RC1. I just put it on both my PCs(W7 32 bit and Vista64 SP1.) Those running GradientIcool Blue theme may have to reload/reinstall the theme. After I did that using FEBE addon, my AddOn buttons showed in the status bar again. It passed my litmus tests. The pop-down descriptions on TV Guide site work, Silverlight video works on Netflix, and my AutoCopy AddOn copies. So far I haven't found any quirks or bugs.

I would really love to hear you suggestions on what downloader manager(s) to use (even an add-on for Firefox). I just wanted to know because I asked my friends, and each use use different ones and cannot decide which can be called "the best" (if there is one)

I was working on my laptop earlier this evening moving a few files around and organising my folders when I lost a few files from a folder. I don't know exactly what happened, I probably mashed the touch pad. Anyway, now I can't find the files anymore. I've tried running a search but it has come to no avail. How do I find my files? If it makes any difference the files were on a memory stick.

While installing a program, the process was interrupted and the install created 62000 files using 160gig in my syswow64 folder virtually using all my hd space. However when you go into the syswow64 folder, there is only about 2000 files and 1 gig of space used. I have set the folders to show all hidden files. When I go into the ms dos prompt and do a directory, the files match the 1 gig data.
I can't delete these 62000 files and free up the 160 gig space because I don't believe they are actually there on the hard drive but explorer thinks they are there. Is there any way to rebuild, sync, or otherwise get windows explorer to recognize the correct amount of files that are actually in my syswow64 folder.(2000files 1gig and not 62000files 160gig)

I am running Vista Ultimate 32 bit. I have a folder on my desktop named Downloads that I use for, shockingly, downloads. Anyway, there are a couple of files in the folder that are, apparently, not really there. They are like ghost files. They used to exist but now they are still visible but not recognized by any program. Also, they have a size of 0 kb!
I'd like to get rid of them but they refuse to be deleted. When I try to delete them, I get this:
So I figured that I'd delete the whole folder........or not:

A multitude of files, folders and sub-folders have disappeared (all from my "Documents"). Miscellaneous sub-folders within folders have disappeared, while other sub-folders remain intact. At first I was completely lost, as the files were there not 30 minutes prior... After assuming the worst and thinking that they had corrupted or been deleted due to a virus, I:
- Made sure my folder options were set properly (I can view all hidden files)
- Thoroughly checked the recycle bin
- Did numerous searches
- Downloaded Google Desktop and searched some more
- Ran various "undelete" and "recovery" programs with no results
- Did a system restore...........

Because of a mistake I made while installing Vista, I wound up with the system files (about 1.6 Gig) on one small D: drive while all of the remaining Windows files (over 50 Gig) on the large C: drive. I now want to remove the D: drive and replace it with a large one. How do I move the system files to the C: drive?

I have encountered a very strange problem. I have downloaded two exe files recently. When I doubleclick on the exe file, instead of the application installing, what should happen but Word of all things opens with, in the case of one of them a box headed 'File Conversion - arw5setup.msi', and a similar wording in the second, asking me to select the encoding that makes my document readable. Whatever I select, the exe file then opens as a text file.
(The reference to an msi file is baffling as both files were exe files.) When it happened the first time I thought it was a corrupt file, but when it happened again it has to be that there is something wrong with my system. Is this a virus? Spybot has just come up with a clean slate ...

When I start installing it, it goes through the "Copying Files" stage instantly, and then hangs up at 0% on "Expanding Files". Then, anywhere from 10 seconds to 3 minutes later, my screen goes black like it's not receiving a monitor signal anymore, and nothing else happens.
I Googled the problem and found a ton of threads here and elsewhere with the same issue, with a slight variation, but none of them had issues posted, and they were all relatively old.

MOD and TOD are informal names of tapeless video formats used by JVC (MOD and TOD), Panasonic (MOD only) and Canon (MOD only) in some models of digital camcorders. So, you may want to convert TOD files or .Mod files to your portable devices supporting formats, such as convert Mod to WMV, AVI, convert TOD to MPG etc for the iPod, iPhone, Zune PSP, BlackBerry, Creative Zen, etc.......
