Windows was installing some updates while shutting down my PC yesterday. The electricity supply got cut off for a second or two and my PC shut down during the updates installation abruptly. Booted my PC after that today morning and my computer wouldn't get past the black screen with the Windows logo on it. Can someone guide me as to how to repair the installation? I was running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit SP1. I have the installation of Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit. I dont want to do a clean install. Just repair the Win 7 files. Startup repair couldn't fix it. And there is NO system restore point available!

how to log out users that are idle on Windows 7? I work for a company that has computers in general areas, anyone can walk up and login and use it for business. Many of my users don't log off and later when they change their password these machines lock out their AD accounts. I was thinking that we could use the group policies that are used for terminal services to log out after being idle for x amount of time.

For the past day windows wants to install the same 4 updates over and over, I have windows update set to download and let me choose when to install.
I can't understand why I even need them, as I uninstalled net framework. Notice how the update at 8:17 AM., KB2656368, is the same as one of the 4 updates installed at 7:47 PM. Windows wants to install the same four kb files again.How do I stop this?

Installation date: 6/15/2012 7:47 PM

I'm rebuilding my desktop PC with a fresh installation of Windows 7 x64.Upon first boot after installation, 3 updates automatically installed. After a reboot, I was informed that over 100 additional recommended updates (and quite a few optional updates) were ready to be installed.I chose to install all of the recommended and optional updates (except for the 39 international updates).During the Windows Update installation process, a Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center installation window appeared. When the progress bar got to about 75%, however, the following error dialog appeared underneath: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime LibraryThis application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way Presumably, the installation of the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center (and perhaps other items) failed to install; upon pressing the OK button, I was informed that 51 updates succeeded and 75 failed. Codes 800706BE 800706BA were mentioned.Upon reboot, another batch of updates (75?) installed; then the PC rebooted twice.At this point, Windows 7 appears to be completely installed and up to date. There are no new items in Windows Updates. However, the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center is nowhere to be found; I was able to download the installer and successfully install the product.

My windows media player 12 updates the libraries every time I open it, its anoying. As I remember with previous versions my libraries would update the first time player would open, then I could add particular folders I needed and it would add them, and then it would add only the stuff that was missing. Basically with older versions when i opened the player all my files were already there, with wmp 12 every time i open it my libraries are EMPTY and i have to wait for it to upload all of my music, videos, pics etc which takes a couple of minutes. I tried messing with the options but no luck. Why does it renew libraries every time i open it and how can i fix this?

Alright, this was my first time removing the current thermal paste and applying new one, the previous one was tough to remove because it was stone hard, although I didnt remove 100% of it i'd say I took out a good 70-80% of what was there.So when applying it, I hear some ppl say to put as much as the size of a bb just a small dot (this is for my laptop cpu and gpu) which I did, then evenly spread it around with the little spreader it came with. My cpu now gets hotter by 4-5c.

As a novice I went in on Windows 7 and applied the compatibility move to a program.It originally worked somewhat now it won't work at all. How can I "REVERT" the program to work as it did before applying the compatibility mode?

For example I have a folder in my desktop with pictures, videos, documents, music, etc. I organized it by grouping by type, somewhere between large & extra large thumbnails, and a few other things. I want these settings applied to all other folders. I went to folder options and applied it to other folders. Nothing changed. My other folders, including my picture folder is still the same way it was. How do I apply to ALL folders? I know you can zoom in on thumbnails by hitting ctrl + mouse scroll wheel, but is there a way you can do it with a keyboard and not the mouse?

I have a second monitor plugged in to my laptop. The first monitor on my laptop is 1366x768, and the second monitor plugged in by VGA is 1400x900. The setting I choose is "Show desktop only on 2". When I go to close the lid on my laptop, monitor 1 disappears from the available monitors, but reappears when I open it again. What happens, is that it reverts back to "Extend these displays" but I still want it to only "Show desktop only on 2" by default.
I just upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista, and I didn't have this issue in Vista. For some reason, my first monitor is reactivating itself and my display settings are changing without me doing anything to them. I have to go back every time to change it to show only on monitor 2.

Basically, I built myself a new Gaming PC. I decided to get a SSD purely for gaming while using two older 500GB Caviar Blue HDDs. They were rather slow and boot up was probably around 1 minute + loading closer to 3 minutes. So I installed the OS on the SSD. Boot and loading is now about 4 second, it's amazing! But my problem is, I want to use the SSD for the OS and maybe a select game or two.
Currently everything is on my other 500GB HD which is where I would like to leave it. But the problem is loading everything or launching programs. Is it possible to keep my OS on the SSD and not have it as the C: drive?
Can I get around not having to reinstall everything so it works again? Hope I'm being clear in my goal!
Just in case, an example would be I want to play BF3, I go to my (F drive (which used to be my (C) and try to launch the game. But it doesn't work anymore obviously.
The other thing is I don't want to be forced to install programs on the SSD which never give the option to select the installation location. (Also when using the start menu the shortcuts to everything typically relate to the C: drive)
I'm sure people have done this! I also still have the OS on my 500GB HD as well if that helps, figure it wouldn't hurt to leave on there just in case!

I have Windows 7 64-bit and have configured Software Restriction Policies so that "Disallowed" is the default security level. I also have Path Rules defined so that software in C:Program Files, C:Program Files (x86), and C:Windows can execute. I also want it to apply to only my limited user account, so it is configured for "All users except local administrators".But it is still affecting my admin account. When I'm logged in as my admin user and I try to run any executable file in the C:UsersadminDownloads directory, I get a popup saying "This program is blocked by group policy."why the Software Restrictions Policies are affecting my admin account even though it is set to "All users except local administrators"?

Every time I switch off I get "Installing 1 of 1 updates".This is obviously a fault somewhere, but I don't know where. There are no updates to install.

I was clicking around in my C drive because I was trying to find a folder that was hidden. I right clicked, click properties, selected the "hidden" folder attribute to the administrator folder, and clicked apply to all folders, subfolders, etc. I realized this was not the right thing because it just hid all the folders inside, so I undid it.Afterwards, it kicked me off of skype and when I tried to log on again, it said my disk was full when it is obviously not and gave me the "disk i/o error"In addition, I clicked firefox and it gave me a dialog box that said "Could not initialize the browser security component, etc etc and gave me another warning about my disk being full.What did I do? Obviously my disk is not full but these two programs think it is full and is giving me error messages.

I have applied settings in control panel to make my mouse snap to default in dialogue box. I have done this a number of times. It still doesn't work, except for usually in print routines where it snaps to the Print button.

We've just got a laptop with Win7 installed our desktop has XP. When surfing there are a load of toolbars at the top of the screen so I've been trying to switch off the ones we won't use as it reduces the usable screen size. Unfortunately I've switched off the toolbar where the option to switch on or off toolbars is situated, ie I can't now turn it back on again!The other toolbar with a 'Tools' drop down doesn't have that option. Now what do I do please?Associated with this, when using XP I was able to have more than one toolbar on the same row - but I can't work out how to do that on Win7

This one is new in build 7201. Whenever I switch my monitor off, the entire system restarts. This happens every time.
I did have nVidia driver problems with the older builds, but I could always revert to the default driver. However this time, the default driver was already giving me issues, periodically going into BSOD. I decided to download the latest beta from nVidia hoping it would at least solve the random BSOD.
Well... it did. But it gives me a the issue I mention in the subject.

64installed on c, win 7 later installed an d. dual boot has been working perfectly until
something caused the drives to switch. now win 7 starts ok but looks for all it's files on c, which is locked.
vista starts up fine, and sees all it's files on c as it should.
my windows 7 repair disk, created at start of win 7, does not correct problem, nor does system restore.

I just switched my old HDD to my Gateway computer and I'm getting BSOD when starting up Windows. I know it has something to do with the drivers and Windows 7 from the HDD being in a new Computer, but how do I reformat without losing some of my old files like music and such? I tried repairing the system, but it didn't work. I do have a Windows 7 CD, is it possible that I can wipe out the old Windows from my HDD using killdisk and install windows 7 again?

I have Windows 7 home 64bit and I use the 2012 version of Norton Internet Security.Over the last few days the Action Center keeps telling me that NIS has been switched off and raising issues about antispyware, antivirus and the firewall. NIS is sitting there telling me that everything is secure.
I don't think there is a major issue but it is very irritating. I can resolve it for today by going into NIS, switching everything off and then back on again. So it looks like something has gone wrong with the communication between Windows and NIS at start up.

Just came back from overseas again and another motherboard died on my Windows 7 64 computer. I swapped motherboards, and luckily it booted up made a number of changes in drivers but seems ok.The issue is not that when i'm drawing on the computer resources to play a 3d game among other things I'm hearing weird snaps and pops about everything 15 seconds.Any advice for this situation? Do I need to do a complete windows 7 reinstall or do you think the motherboard is faulty?

I've just switched from IE9 to Google chrome, as some websites didn't load right in IE 9 even with compatibly mode enabled. The only thing I don't like about chrome is that if you download a file it automatically saves it, where in IE9 you had the option to save it, or just open it. Is it possible to achieve that in chrome, as some stuff i download i don't need saved, and i hate having to go through my download and delete stuff.
