Windows 7 Management Functions Broken - Giving Unspecified Error
Jun 15, 2011
Running Win 7 Home with all latest updates. Why can't I access all Windows 7 functions in normal way, yet I can access them directly by a workaround? I recently found that I could not access the administrator functions for computer management on my home computer. For instance, when right clicking on the main "Computer" icon on my desktop and selecting "Manage" I would get an unspecified error. Going in through control panel I could not access many system admin tools and when I try I get error of you may not "have the appropriate permissions" This applies to "Services" "Component Services" "Computer Management".
Workaround: Today I found that I can open the administrative tool folder in Explorer directly and then right click on one of the management functions and select "Run as Administrator." Then it let's me in OK and I can control things. It's only the usual ways of accessing these controls that I can not now do. This is my personal computer and I'm logged on as administrator, the only account on the system, AND it is telling me I can't access all the files on my own computer's hard drive that you normally use to manage win 7. It's not networked files I'm trying to use but my own Win 7 computer's hard drive, e.g. I get the error when I click on own Desktop Computer Icon and select "Manage."
I downloaded the .exe for 7 Home Premium from the UK Ultimate Steal site. It says it's preparing setup1.box, but eventually it gives me an error message saying "Unspecified Error".
The .iso is equally annoying, I burned it to a DVD and tried to get my laptop to boot from the DVD drive. It waited a moment and then booted from the hard drive. I burned to a different DVD and attempted to boot from DVD drive, it did the same. I then tried to boot a DVD containing Ubuntu. This booted perfectly fine.
I have an unspecified error 766f6c756d652e63 3f1 (yes there is a gap before the 3f1). I have tried but the above error occurs. HDD is C: drive NTFS system. Reason I'm worried is that sfc /scanow returned nothing, but windows backup returned quite a few lines similar to the following....
- Windows Backup skipped C:UsersxxxxxDocuments because is it on corrupted drive C:. - Windows Backup skipped c:UsersPublicvideos because is it on corrupted drive C:. - Windows Backup skipped c:UsersxxxxxAppDataLocalLow because is it on corrupted drive C:.
i am trying to create a restore point in my system but everytime i am getting this message: Error message was: "System Restore" did not complete successfully. Your computer's system files and settings were not changed."Details: An unspecified error occurred during System Restore (0xc0000022)." i've even run System File Checker [SFC] and scan it but it shows that there is no integrity error. but after that while creating a restore point same error message was there. so,how should i create a restore point?
I am currently on Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit and I have bought and downloaded Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.
I have used the upgrade adviser and it says: Information about upgrading to 64-bit Windows 7

Now wants I start installing it fills up the green bar and then when there's just a bit left to go I get the error message:
I keep getting Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found error whenever I try to connect to any other computer (running windows 7 ultimate) on my network. I have another computer with windows 7 ultimate that does not have this problem. Firewalls are disabled on all computers. Computers all ping fine. Can ping by name too. If I try to connect via IP address, I get Error Code: Error0x80004005 Unspecified error.
"an unspecified error occurred during system restore (0x8000ffff)"I made a restore disk on my 64bit Windows 7 desktop for my 64bit Windows 7 laptop because windows stopped loading. Now when I try different restore points I get the same problem. Should I make a new disk? What else could I try?
Quote: I have a normal stock dell desktop with windows 7. I borrowed my grandmothers laptop. It is an Acer Aspire 5736Z-4790 w/ an Intel Processor. Last night after trying to install some files to make some cheat programs I use for an online game (I have loaded same programs 10x on other computers so I doubt its related to the programs themselves) One thing I did do was try to delete a winhttp.dll file in system32 or the WOW one(for 64bit computers? Forget the folders name)and replace it with another one(Directions for the cheats said to make sure that winhttp.dll was in sys32) and while trying to do that windows would not let me so I read somewere that there is a program that lets you "take ownership of a file" so you can override permissions. I then took ownership of sys32 and maybe the 64bit folder as well. It still did not let me replace any files in sys32 so I then restarted and when windows opened again, desktop loaded then an error message came up, then it restarted itself, and repeated, but after the second time it restarted itself windows would not load. After the Acer manufacture screen, just the blank black screen with the blinking line.I have tried everything, cant seem to figure out how to even get it to open in safe mode. Only thing I can think of would be to use the restore disk which I dont have. Is there a way to legally make a restore disk on another PC to be used on the broken laptop?
I have a emachine e725 running windows 7 32bit and a acer running on windows vista. My emachine recently crashed in the blue screen and I tried to complete a system restore. I was able to get through the advanced boot menu and use the repair your computer option to restore windows. During the windows setup process I got another blue screen and the computer restarting. It then started the process over and once it got to the step that says windows is preparing setup, it gives an error msg saying something along the lines of windows was interupted and needs to restart to complete installation, and it has an option to press ok. This cycle continues and I can not open in safe mode because it says "windows can not complete the installation in safemode. Also the option to repair your computer in the advanced menu options is no longer available. So after wrestling with windows starting up I decided to create a back up and restore disc on my acer for my windows 7 computer. I tried putting it on a disc but it would not boot. So I tried creating a installation disc of windows 7 and tried booting from the cdrom drive. Once I did that I got a error msg saying "device driver not found: MSCD001 No valid cdrom device drivers selected. It then gives me the A:>. Im not sure if I created the disc wrong since I cant unzip the entire file I downloaded with needing an encryption password.
When a user in the domain tries to login, the error is "You cannot log on because the logon method you are using is not allowed on this computer". Many users would not have saved their work. Is there any possible way to make the user login without changing the group policy.
I somehow managed to destroy windows update. it cannot find updates anymore. Ive gotten 2 error codes: 80248014 and (not sure) 80073712. I have tried using a program i found on the windows club that was supposed to fix it but didnt, i tried the System Update Readiness Tool, but it failed.
had a virus last year with an underlying update problem. the virus got sorted but i was told the only way to sort the update was to reinstall windows. basically every time the laptop was turned off it was have to reinstall all the updates as they dont seem to save when it shuts off. i left it at the time as it was only 25 or so updates. it is now at over 90 updates and i am missing some security updates. when i try updating manually it comes up with code 80071A91-windows update encountered an unknown error.
I have formatted and installed win 7 ultimate freshly and now my Epson TX121 (PSC) is giving a strange error. It was working nicely before the format. I've tried the Company original Disc of drivers. The above said Problem is only with the Scanner, while the printer works perfectly. The Screenshot of the error is attached.
My computer randomly decided to turn off and I figured it was updates, now when it restarts it goes to "device mapping table" I was running windows 7. Anyone know why it might do this and how to fix it?
While connecting with my Samsung Galaxy handset via bluetooth it is giving me error code 43. My system has been upgraded from Home basic to Professional recently and since then the blue tooth is not functioning.
after turning on my laptop that have win 7 something happened <after the win 7 logo and the moving 4 colours of the start up a blue screened error appears say "a problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer and at the bottom of the message Technical information *** STOP: 0x0000007B(0x80786A50,0XC0000034,0X00000000,0X00000000)" > and i tried to install a new windows drive C doesn't appear and the other drive is not a NTFS so i couldnt install a new windows even turning on the existing windows to take my files
Recently my custom-built pc has come across an error where it at boot-up it says "windows has detected an error and canceled startup to prevent system damage".
I am pretty sure that this is a registry error because of what happened before, heres the full story.
I first had to delete a couple game files from the registry of my computer because they had been corrupt to the point where the uninstaller was missng but some files were still there and the game was still installed, so i had to manually uninstall the game. I followed steps from a online source and made sure that i only deleted the files specific to the game and not to touch anythign else. After doing this i rebooted and my pc was still workign fine. Then, i opened up my registry defragger (glary utilities) and ran a registry defrag. It told me that it would clear up 77% of the space(i hadn't run it before and i built my pc about 5 months ago) but i ran it anyways. After the auto reboot after defragging it came up with the error message and no longer starts windows.
I had backed up my files with Norton backup but was unable to do a system restore because it said "you need to have system protection enabled on drive c", i only have one hard drive with both windows and my data on it. It also cant find any system images to mirror and revert to. Windows tried repairng the errors but couldnt. It also scanned for any memory errors and found none. I have tried every option on the windows bootup system repair menu with no success.
I was thinking that i could take out my hard drive and plug it into a one of those devices that turns an internal drive into a external usb drive. If i were to do this and plug it into another computer, is there a way i can repair the registry? Does anybody know of anyway to do this or of any better solutions to this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a Dell Inspiron 14 that I bought last April. The hard drive crashed before Christmas and I had to send it to Dell of replacement. Obviously all other software applications on the computer were gone when we got the computer back from Dell. I have since reinstalled all software using my last license to do so. Now I am having major issues with internet explorer giving me an "Object Error" on some websites. All indications I have to reinstall windows 7. How do I do this and not loose all of my other applications that are on this computer?

I started a chkdsk on a Windows 7 64bit computer that got stuck at startup repair. Before that though, I was looking around, the damage seems to be the windows files got messed up after an update. My computer data was intact when I looked around booted through a recovery cd and I checked again via a ubuntu live cd. My question is that the chkdsk d: /f apparently stopped in the middle and gave the following message:An unspecified error occurred <6672732e637878>Failed to transfer logged messages to the event log with status 50What does that mean? Is it terrible? I just restarted the chkdsk anyway and as of now, it is finding less unreadable segments, but is there a risk of data loss?
I am trying to use all the 4 GB of RAM that I have for my computer so I decided to "upgrade" to 64-bit. The only problem is that when I boot from the installation CD I get a memory management error. I know that my CPU is 64-bit capable as well as my video card. As for everything else I am not sure of. What is a way to fix this problem because I desperately need to upgrade to 64-bit.
when it goes to log in, a profile unable to login service error comes up. Is it have to do with the F drive? Is there something other than just the Drive letter, that windows looks for when searching for the users folder to login? Like HDD id/serials or something like that?
I have some flv videos and burn them on a dvd disk but it says error when I try to play it. I think I need to convert them over to something but I have no idea where to start. Sorry I'm new here and aint ever burnt a successful dvd yet. So I had look for help. Tell me what I need to download and what to burn it with etc. And I've tried downloading this dvdflick software but every time stops loading...
I am hoping someone can help. I have 2 machines both running windows 7 64-bit with XP mode installed. On one, I have successfully loaded and run my program perfectly without a single hiccup but with the other it installs fine but will not open. All I get is a fatal errorE. The same install disc was used for both machines and I have checked to verify that all files are there.
