Image Thumbnails Still Look Like Uninstalled Program?

Nov 6, 2011

I installed a program that works with images and then uninstalled it because it doesn't do the thing I needed it to. However, in a Winrar-style fashion, thumbnails of the images it would work with are replaced with the program's icon. This effect has stayed even though I uninstalled it. It's just an annoyance, but is there a way that I can get the image thumbnails back?

Windows 7 Image Thumbnails Have Disappeared

Nov 14, 2011

About a week ago thumbnail images suddenly stopped showing (mainly .jpgs & .pngs) in several of my folders. It seemed to be fairly random across all folders & drives (2 partitions on C drive) whereby some display correctly within a folder but most now show as windows photo viewer icons.Images uploaded in "My Pictures Folder" on C drive are not affected.

I have done the obvious:-
1. in folder options > always show icons, never thumbnails (unchecked)
2. deleted & rebuilt the thumbnail cache
3. run malwares scans (system is clean)
4. done restores (Microsoft & Adobe updates)
5. selected medium icons to view . . .

Also, using the Windows Photo Viewer default preview pane no longer works if Id/click on an image it opens in a new window.I had been using Mystic Thumbs successfully for a while to enable me to see .svg, .pspimages & .psd files (as a graphic designer I want quick access to these) Uninstalling it hasn't made any difference.

TuneUp Utilities Cannot Be Uninstalled

May 18, 2012

I have been trying to remove the (trial version) of TuneUp Utilities 2012 from my computer for over 3 weeks. My computer was hesitating and slow to respond to mouse clicks. So, I took a look at this program that cleans up old files, but, decided not to buy it. Mostly out of fear that this was another attempt to create a problem and charging a fee to fix it. The TuneUp Utilities file has been on my computer ever since. I have already uninstalled the program from my Control Panel and I tried Revo Uninstaller Pro (free version). It removed itself from Revo but not from my Program Data files. Another form of web deception where you enter the problem name to a list and they remove it from that list you just created. I can move it around but not into the recycle bin. What is this thing? How can I not have permission to do what I want on my own computer? XP would never do that! Please help me remove TuneUp Utilities 2012 from my computer.I am using Win 7 Pro w/XP mode, SP1, 64bit, i7, IE9.

Errors: �You need to provide administrator permission to change these attributes.� You need permission to do anything with this file. In fact, I have been using Win 7 without permission ever since I upgraded to it one year ago. My computer still hesitates and is still slow to respond to mouse clicks. The TuneUp Utilities Company is very cooperative though. If you ask the company (aka TuneUpMedia) for help they will eventually sell you another download that will not remove it either..After many emails they will do anything but that. I can uninstall it from my control panel but not from here:C:ProgramDataTuneUp SoftwareTuneUp SoftwareTuneUp Utilities 2012TTUSvclrt.tt or TTUSvc.tt

Half Of Programs Just Got Uninstalled?

Nov 22, 2012

I downloaded an old game that I wanted to play again it finished downloading I installed it. Though it didn't install in the folder I wanted it to so I uninstalled it and started the installation again. Went through the process and put in the correct pathing D: program files (x86) it selected and smart highlighted program files x86 for me so i hit enter and the installer thought I was finished with the pathing when I was not and it went ahead and installed the game to that path.So once again I uninstalled the game and this time ... it uninstalled everything within "Program Files (x86) from A to L before I realized what was happening .. I quickly ctrl shift esc'd and canceled that process for the uninstaller and now alot of items are missing so many I don't even know what is gone.Unfortunately I do not enable system restore on any of my drives because I know malware can hide in there and some people recommend to keep it off.is there any way without using system

Log Of Programs Uninstalled In Windows 7?

Jun 16, 2012

I was dealing with a creepy redirecting malware and I was connecting to bleepingcomputer.com a few times. I went back to connect to bleepingcomputer.com and the connection failed. I did some diagnosis and the detailed info said "The device or resource (www.bleepingcomputer.com) is not set up to accept connections on port �The World Wide Web service (HTTP)�." This was the only site that seemed to be targeted - I could connect to all other sites as far as I could tell.I used Malwarebytes and it found and removed a few files and one directory. I still could not connect to Bleepingcomputer. I looked through the programs that had been installed and found wone I did not recognize - which was installed just about the time of my problems.Then I made a mistake - I uninstalled it without getting a screen shot or writing down the name. The good news - I could now connect to Bleeping computer - but Id like to find out what the ell that was.

IE 8 Not Working Correctly After IE 9 Is Uninstalled

Jun 30, 2011

I am a computer tech that works with a wide variety of operating systems. However, a client of mine got a brand new HP with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit pre-installed. Everything was working, but he installed IE 9. Web applications were taking too long to load, so he uninstalled it using the add / remove programs.

This is where it gets interesting. IE 8 seems to work, until you try to download something interactively. For example I went to adobe.com and tried to install Acrobat Reader, the download would not begin.

I tried to install chrome, however the auto-install would not start. When I chose the standalone install for chrome, the direct link to download worked.

The customer uses webmail and in IE he can log into his email, view the emails, but can't delete. When he selects an email and clicks the delete button, the page refreshes, but the email is not deleted.

So I can't uninstall IE 8, I can only turn it off in the Windows Component applet, and I don't see a full install of IE 8 either. He needs IE for some of the web applications he is using in his business, so we need to get IE working. how to fully remove and reinstall IE 8?

How To Delete Uninstalled Hidden Updates

Sep 21, 2011

Windows Updates recently automatically installed two .NET 4 updates. Almost immediately my system began misbehaving: my Firefox Booksmarks toolbar disappeared along with all the bookmarks it held, the shutdown/sleep/lock/logoff button in the start menu changed selection each time the Start menu was opened, desktop icons moved and/or disappeared each time the desktop was opened.

I uninstalled the two updates (Kb2468871 and Kb 2533523) and the system returned to normal.

I hid those 2 updates and changed my update setting to "notify but don't download" so MS doesn't install .NET updates I didn't know about BUT I am concerned that those 2 updates are still stored in my system.

I know that Windows stores updates in C:WindowsSoftware DistributionDownload. My dilemma is that there are more than 30 folders/files stored there and I can determine the contents of only the 2 folders. I can't open the files so I don't know which of them to delete to remove the .NET 4 updates. I've been installing MSE updates manually for the past week.

How can I clear my system of those 2 hidden .NET updates?

Accidentally Uninstalled HD Graphics 3000?

Dec 14, 2012

So I was going to update my driver, but the installer was giving me an error. So I decided I should uninstall the driver and see if that fixed it. My screen went black. I tried hooking it up to my tv with HDMI because I have a GeForce GT 525M as well, but it did not work.

I am currently on my Linux partition and I have access to my Windows partition. How can I install a driver by pasting files or whatever.

Accidentally Uninstalled Wifi Adapter, Can't Reinstall

Aug 10, 2012

My grandson is getting ready to enter his senior year of high school. They have been given the Aspire 3830-T TimelineX with Windows 7 Professional installed on it.

He is not supposed to download any programs on this notebook, but he did. So, he went into the control panel and uninstalled some things. Included in this was something called Babylon and also his Atheros wifi adapter. He has tried system restore and it will not work at all.

I went to look at the system recovery and it doesn't go back to the date he did this, nor before. So, I don't know how to reinstall this for him and get him back onto wireless.

Basic Features Suddenly Customized Or Uninstalled

Oct 18, 2011

I have a netbook running Windows 7 Starter, and then all of a sudden some features/devices were disabled, or I don't know...uninstalled?There's a distinct look for the Windows 7 taskbar, right? Well, when I turned the computer on, this was what the taskbar looked like:

 taskbar.jpg   9.59K
  2 downloads

It began looking like Windows XP or something. I tried checking the Color Management Settings but all it did was change the color, not the theme (you know, that circle start button)But the Start Menu was the same Windows 7 Menu, only that it had a different theme:

 startMenu.jpg   35.95K
  2 downloads

The windows looked like this instead of the smooth and semi-transparent window look in Win 7:

 myComputer.jpg   72.78K
  2 downloads

What surprised me was that the Audio was somehow disabled...or uninstalled...When I tried right clicking that audio icon in the taskbar, it asked me to install an audio device, since it was detecting some sort of problem in the audio:

 detectingAudio.jpg   18.72K
 1 downloads
 detectedAudio.jpg   31.47K
 1 downloads

I thought those were the only things that changed, so I went on with my work. But when I opened a spreadsheet in Windows Excel and tried to Print Preview, it gave me this:

 printer1.jpg   17.56K
  2 downloads
 printer2.jpg   37.77K
  3 downloads

I wish I could tell you more details about it, but I just can't describe what happened. I don't even know what happened...maybe I tweaked the computer settings by accident and then made the changes after it rebooted. And by the way, the network settings were also somewhat configured, says I'm not connected to anything (well in fact I have a fully functional broadband radio connected).

Uninstalled ATI Drivers + Used Driver Sweeper = No USB On Restart?

Oct 19, 2011

I've been messing around with various drivers to try and get the game "RAGE" working. Which is an exercise in futility but to make this tumultuous process more agravating I've somehow inadvertently uninstalled my USB drivers drivers as well.This wouldn't be an issue, except that my computer has no PS2 ports.

long version:I used "GPU caps viewer" to check my driver driver version on my graphics card (ATI Radeon XFX 6790) as I'd not noticed a change in my gaming performance and I was unsure if the "11.10 preview 2" drivers drivers had been installed properly. "GPU caps viewer" said I was still running 11.8 which is what I had before I tried changing drivers last time. So I guessed that my drivers had not changed dispite the fact I uninstalled/reinstalled using the guide on the AMD /ATI site. So on a bunch of sites I saw people were using "DriverDriver Sweeper" to get rid of the registry files and hidden bits of the ATI/AMD drivers and softwaredrivers. I used this application, it found the drivers left overs and removed it and then asked if i wanted to reboot.At this point the drivers are "uninstalled" and the generic windows driver is working because my resolution/aspect ratio is stuck at 4:3 and wont go 16:10/16:9. AND more importantly my USB devices were all still working.I restart the computer and It loads windows and I try to type my password and nothing happens, The mouse cursor is in the middle of the screen and I can not move it, and there are no lights on my keyboard. The optical sensor in the bottom of my mouse also does not light up.

I restart again, and check the BIOS, all USB ports are enabled, so I try booting in to safe mode. I can use my keyboard to work in the BIOS, and to select "Safe mode with networking" (vs safe mode with out). When safe mode loads, same issue. No power to USB devices. I tested a bunch of devices; xbox controler; USB memory stick, external HDD etc. and none work. I don't know what to do; the mouse and keyboard work in the recovery partition installed on my HDD, but I really don't want to lose all that data. Ill probably end up using a live CD of linux to get my files and then format the PC if I can't figure out how to fix this.

Additional info:

Windows 7 Professional 64bit
HP branded computer
ATI Radeon XFX 6790
AMD 1065T x6 CSU
600watt PSU
