I recently installed BitDefender and it wouldn't open. Their support stated I had a csrss.exe trojan file. Task bar shows there are 2 of this file running. However, properties tab shows both are in win 32 and both have same file version number and publisher is Microsoft. One version shows about 1 mb and the other 5 mb use with 0 cpu. PC runs fine other than BitDefender, previously Norton Security Suite had been running fine with it and Avast installed and opened without issue.
Something is running on my harddrive, it is constantly running. I am running windows 7 premium. These processes are running on my computer; csree.exe, atied.exe. ,dwm.exe, explorer.exe, rundll32.exe, and winlogon.exe.The cpu useage is at 30% Is this csrss.exe a virus? Today it shut down today and wouldn't boot up for over 2 hours.
The other day I noticed two csrss.exe processes going one went up to 10% cpu. So i did some research on how to remove the faulty one. I checked my system32 folder found a csrss there but that is the legitmate one. I guess could be bad still. I then tried to look in the Start up folder where they said to look so I went there and the folder was empty. I then read that you have to rigth click the start up folder and hit "For all users" still empty! So i went into msconfig and nowhere to be seen is the csrss.exe in the startup. So i tried looking for my C:\user\ app data\startup folder that way no use.
I have some info too on both the process. Looking in Spybot search and destroy's process list both are there and one process has 9 threads and the other has 10 threads whatever that means I noticed that one of the csrss had 12 threads before i rebooted. Maybe its building back up to 12. The other one has stayed at 9 always. Also whenever I right click on the processes in Spybot S&D theres a "show process in windows explorer" when I hit that it takes me to my user folder and nothing happens. Its obviously not there.
The first csrss the one that I think is the legitmate one is 1424 K memory size 2nd is 1748 K memory: this is the one that uses the cpu
Its a new build only two months old all new hardware. Asrock z68 extreme4 board, i7 2600K processor, 16GB Corsair RAM, BeQuiet 750W PSU, GTX 580 graphics, Windows 7 enterprise 64bit. Initially I thought the crashes were heat related but monitoring the board shows cool temps. I am not overclocking either.
I recently got a new laptop running Win 7 Pro 64-bit and as part of my initial third-party software installations I inadvertently overwrote the 'Path' environment variable (instead of appending to it). I subsequently tried adding c:windowssystem32; to it but don't know if this is doing anything. I have not managed to find any definitive information on what the Path ev should be on a new Windows 7 64-bit install.The thing is I loaded a batch process which I had on another Win 7 (32-bit) system but when I key the bat filename in cmd.exe (without the extension or double-click it) I get this error:"The syntax of the command is incorrect."If I key the bat filename with the extension, it runs but then stops because it seems not to recognize another program which the bat file calls even though I have the Path ev set for that program.
I get the BSOD while seeding in uTorrent mutliple files. I have a stable notebook, never got an issue for years. Occasionally get some BSOD, but for reasons, now I have BSOD i cant explain for myself. uTorrent can seed for some time, but if I leave it ,i find it with the following BSOD. I doesnt do it right away, after sometime. check screenshot.
Is there anything similar to Mac OS X Airdrop to wirelessly transfer files between two computers running Windows 7?If possible without an internet connection, but I'd still be fine if it requires one, since one of the computers doesn't have a wireless card.
ive been getting BSODs and finally figured out how to debug it with WinDbg (x86) and set the symbols for windows but i cant read the text. ive tried reinstalling my GPU and Java but no luck. when i try to run intel driver update utility as soon as i run it i get a BSOD ive got the minidump here if anyone knows how to read it, so here you go.

I need to share files on my Win7Pro PC with the virtual PC I am running (I've tried both Win98 and WinME). I have this old software that just flat doesn't work in any newer OS. The Virtual PC works, but it isn't seeing the drives on the real PC or it's files. XP Mode shows "C on Desk" and "D on Desk" but the Win98/ME vhd aren't showing anything like that.
I'm just installed windows 7 on my 2009 imac through bootcamp. However there are some problems. Ive noticed when i try to play something on windows media player it will tell me that my computer is running low on memory and to close some windows. Also games run poorly if at all. I suspect its a driver issue but have gone through all the auto updates etc.
As I shutdown/restart my laptop, I notice it switches to a secondary desktop that has been running programs.A good example would be trying to open my Task Manager, I can Ctrl-Alt-Del and it will allow me to open Task Manager - however when I click on Task Manager, it opens on the Desktop running in the background. I can't even access the Desktop in the background, it only shows up as I'm shutting down - closing programs that I tried opening awhile ago.
I have installed Win 7 OS recently and i have got a problem regarding ".exe" files. During installation of any software(Eg. VLC Player), when i double click on the ".exe" file, nothing is happening(actually there used to be a pop-up asking my confirmation to continue. but i don't remember what i did, but somehow i changed its settings.. Now i don't see any such pop-up asking permission) and the software is not getting installed. I tried several times, tried re-starting the system but nothing worked. Prior to installation of Win 7 my OS was Vista. And prior to that Vista again it was Win 7. Last time when i had Win 7, everything worked fine.
I am running into this issue of having complete access to one PC running windows 7 from another one that is also running windows 7. One of the PC's is a windows 7 pro 32 bit and the other is window 7 ultimate 64 bit. I have had them setup with public and dedicated folder sharing. But from time to time I find that a file I want to get off one or the other was not saved to a shared folder. I have been looking for a way to allow complete access from one PC to other one (going both directions). I use 2 PC all the times and it really depends on where I am in the house as to what one I am using as one is laptop and the other is a desktop. They are both on the same network. It is just one of the strange things that I have not been able to find a way to get complete file access without the use of software like Teamviewer or others like it.What I would like to do it just go to the network location in the windows explore to get the files I want from the other PC.
I have a problema with windows 7 professional (64 bit, sp1), and offline files.I'm trying the functionality of offline files with a NAS network (WD my book live).Specifically, I do not want to synchronize files with certain extensions (.nef and .cr2). With gpedit.msc in Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Network -> Offline Files, I enabled "exclude files by caching", entering (in the appropriate field), *.nef; *.cr2 But the files with this extension are synchronized anyway.
I have my tower pc on constant all day- to record a streaming IP Camera from my work.Initially, I saved these files into my docutments- which they would save as .avi files, and after every several days I would delete them as they would take up ALOT of space on my pc.My pc is 250GB in size, and usually it would be about 80GB full before I had the IP Camera. Just recently, I noticed all of the IP Camera avi files seemed to have disappeared from my documents if I went directly to the folder... I could still see them in documents when I was choosing a location to save the recordings.Upon right-clicking the avi files in the latter, the files would be of no size and wouldn't play.Now my computer is 210GB full in the matter of a week.
My wife has Windows 7 home premium x64 on her laptop and is using Word 2007. The problem she is having is she will open a word file, change it up, save it, then re-open it later and its the old file not the new one. Where as I can open the edited file on my desktop running the same OS but with Word 2010 and the file that opens for me is the newest version.
My offline files seems to work offline all the time, even when it shows me being online. I sync most of my business files to my laptop for working at home at night. When I edit a file from my Win 7 (pro, 64-bit) laptop, then go to edit it again, I get the version I had changed, but no one else does. This is causing huge difficulty, because my employees will start working in a sales forecast spreadsheet after I reconnect to the network and supposedly sync, but they don't get the latest version. Even doing a manual sync seems to make no difference.
I have a system with 32gb DDR3-2400, a 256GB SSD and a couple of spinners. I have set up 4gb of the RAM to be used as another RAMdisk using the softperfect software. This problem has been going on for some time, but has been more of a problem since I started using the RAMdisk. Not because the RAMdisk itself isn't working well, because the stuff that is stored there keeps getting reset.I have pretty much identified that when updates are installed through windows update (either from Microsoft update or from my WSUS server), the following are reset to defaults
1. Pagefile is automatically managed and stored on the C: drive and is set to 32gb
2. The TEMP and TMP environment variables are reset to the C:users default location
3. The temporary Internet Files location is reset to the default C:users... location
There may be others that I have not discovered.I have manually set my swap file to 1024/2048 on the D: drive (a spinner), on the belief that it should rarely if ever be needed with a system equipped with 32GB of RAM. I'm certainly not inclined to waste 32GB of space on my SSD for an unused object.I have placed the TMP/TEMP files, cookies and Temporary Internet files on the RAMdisk to squeeze a little extra performance out of the system. (Yes, I know, I'm not really getting much benefit).Photoshop and a few other programs also use the RAMdisk as a scratch disk, and were the main reason I set it up in the first place.This is becoming a real pain when it gets reset as I have to manually change everything again. Anyone know a way to make windows leave settings at what I set them, instead of having it continually reset the values to what it wants? I'd prefer to have it my way. I know there will be proponents of "leave things as windows wants it".
I didn't used to have this problem before. For some unknown reason, all my video files have a separate PNG file next to it with a picture of the thumbnail. I don't remember changing any viewing options that may have triggered this.
My file and storage system is set up like this: C: Drive - 120 GB SSD This is my Win 7 64-Bit Ultimate Boot drive. It has my most important Microsoft programs on it. Out of the 111GB available, I've used 42GB, leaving me 69GB free space. I want to keep this area open.
My next drive is a 1TB WD Caviar Black segmented into 3 partitions.
E: Drive = Program FIles This has the majority and rest of my programs. It also includes USERs Files. I've use 96GB out of 150GB. Out of that 96GB, 64GB are in USERS files.
F: Drive = Data Files. This stores all of my data except for media. I've used 91GB out of 350. I want to leave this be.
G:| Drive = Medsia FIles This stores all Media = Vids, Music, Graphics, Pictures. I've used 80 GB out of 500GB
I also have a 64GB ~ 55GB actual storage SSD drive that is partitioned but has no data on it or assigned drive letter.
Here is what I want to accomplish. i want to move my actual Program FIles to the 64GB SSD, assign it a drive letter, and keep the USERS files where they now reside on the F: dirve
My main concern is that in moving all these files around and splitting the USERS files from the Program Files that I'll mees up my Registry. Will someone please suggest some links I might read that will best help me acheive these moves.
I'm running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and having the same problem. You can easily resolve the "Hidden File" problem by right clicking on the file, select Properties, and remove the check box next to "Hidden". If you tagged all the photos in a folder, simply select all (ctrl-A) and do the same. It solved the hidden file problem for me without having to show all hidden files.The problem I'm running into that I can't fix is that even after doing this, Carbonite now recognizes these files as system files and refuses to back them up. Even if you try to manually force Carbonite to back them up, it immediately unselects the check box. Hopefully somebody knows of a solution. It's weird, because I was tagging photos just a few weeks ago, and didn't have any problems at all. I don't know if there was an update at some point that screwed this all up.
how to activate the previews of several files like *.rtf, *.pdf and OpenOffice files (and *.doc, *.xls,...)?On my Windows 7 64bits only the previews of images or movies work..how to do it for icons, for visualisation it's working (except for OOo files)?
I would like to remove the 30 or so files that are now showing on my desktop since selecting to "Show Hidden files"They are all old excel and word documents but not sure if removing them would cause an issue What are they/how are they created?I'm on Windows 7 Home Premium x64 and Office 2007
I tried doing this. Example, game files/data from my XPdocs on C: to my Windows 7 docs on D: couldnt do it, just gave me a chime, no dialogue box or anything. Also tried to move a file from my desktop to either mydocs or to program files folder, same thing. After that, even took ownership of all affected folders/files, ones being moved and destination folder. Still the same.
Question: is there some type of security setting i am missing? anyone else test this? I have moved files to mydocs before, and now i cant move anything to there, has me confused now. Nothing special about a file or folder i am trying to move, permissions ect.
Tried both cut and paste, and copy, same problem either way. No protected files/folders involved
When I create Excel douments using Excel 2003 on my Windows 7 system it saves them as 'OOBE.' documents.If I try to open them from 'My Computer' it says it cannot open them (the Open With option does not suggest Excel). However if I open Excel first then go File Open, then document is fine.When attaching these files to emails they don't look like Excel files then either.
