View 3 RepliesSeems like every time I open some application it puts a link on the start menu, I realize I can delete this by right clicking it and choosing "remove this item from the list". How do I prevent it from being put there in the first place?

How do you remove the "Common Startup" items from the startup list in msconfig for Windows XP? I did locate and remove the "Run" items that are located in HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrent VersionRun.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI deleted a few items from Start Menu>Programs that I would like to restore. These items are (1) set program access and defaults (2) windows catalog and (3) windows update. I don't know where the .exe files are for me to copy back into the start menu folder or if there is a easier way to restore them.

I don't want them 'pinned to the start menu' because they will open in a window and I want them in a list, like in the advanced start menu controls. I read somewhere how to do this, but I don't remember where.
View 8 Replies View RelatedOutlook Express folder list and Contacts list are not showing. I've walked her through the process of clicking on View at the top of the Outlook Express Interface and setting the Layout items so that her Contacts and Folder list should be on the screen, but they are not. I've tried everything I can think of to rectify the situation and I've run out of options. The way it is without her folders list she cannot access her deleted folder and her sent folder and cannot delete anything from those folders. Is there anything else I can do to bring up those her contacts list and her folders list?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to obtain the Hotfix described here, but it says I need to contact Microsoft to obtain it. However when I try to generate a support request it says they can't help as my version of Windows was supplied with my PC. All I want is the Hotfix, I don't need to speak to a rep - why don't they just provide it for download on the website?

View 5 Replies View RelatedAfter installing some recent updates from microsoft my computer restarts on it's own. After I disabled the automatic restart on failure feature I noticed the 0x0000008e error. The computer does this on every reboot. I have to restore the computer to before the updates are installed and then it works perfect. I am not about to be charged 35 bucks for a phone call if they are not going to help me. This error only happens after the latest updates. I'm about 20 security updates behind now and I can't update with out the error. Someone please help, I do not want to do a wipe and reload if I'm not sure it is going to fix it. My computer is free of viruses, spyware, malware trojans etc.

Microsoft tech support to get it. Because my Dell computer came with XP Professional instead of me buying Windows separately, I can't contact Microsoft's support to get the hotfix without paying $35. Is there any way to get the hotfix described in KB899527 without paying the $35 fee to contact Microsoft's support department?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to install the unauthorized WMF hotfix patch but keep getting that my system is not compatible with it. Once it said there was a problem with the windows installer package. I have Windows XP home. I used to have Service Pack 2 but removed it because of errors I was getting. Since removing it back in November, I have had no more errors. I now only have Service Pack 1. I do, however, still have some Service Pack 2 updates installed. I don't know why it says my system is not compatible with the patch. I did unregister the picture & fax viewer as suggested by Microsoft.
View 3 Replies View Relatedi have an XP SP2 pro OS. A couple of days ago i updated it and now a prob surfed with this KB925902 when i tried to install the Vista transformation pack V7. it also gave me a link to a thread in a forum where they discuss how to fix this problem through hacking a dll something. Dont know if any of you guys know about it or had encountered it before. anyways, i didnt save this tut, and now that i wanted to do something about this prob i tried to visit this thread again, but i am faced with a prob. The internet explorer will have to close everytime i go to this thread. Why you guys? so far its only on this link.
what should i do to fix this prob? i did follow a few links here and there on forums and finally i installed the XP-KB935448-X86-ENU.exe which is supposed to sort this prob out (well at least that is what i understood). The prob is still out there. When i tried to un-install this KB925902, a message popped out and said something in the lines of "other KBs and applications might not work properly if you delete / un-install this item". So i halted the remove process, and found my way to here.
My opperating system is missing some of the hotfixes!

View 5 Replies View RelatedI happen to notice the size of the WindowsSystem32 folder to be a surprising 892 MB. Checking the size of the Windows folder showed a 383 GB size on disk. Aren't these numbers a tad on the large side? Is my system failing to purge trash and temp files by attaching some strange extention on files? Are log files ever labled as anything other than .log? Or temp files ever something besides .tmp? Fellow tech freaks, I await thy wisdom. If I'm just being paranoid, and my OS folders aren't bloated, please pass on anything I can do to keep an eye out for commonly overlooked bad habits of windows xp sp2 including file and folder build-up, leading to sluggish start-up and general degrading of simple operations.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have large number of very big TMP files (averaging 300mb) that appear in WinTemp, with no applications open. They can appear in a very short period of time (a couple of hours), and I have to boot into Safe Mode w/command prompt to delete them. In a short period of time, they can obliterate as much as 30 gb of disk space. Is there a way to determine what program or utility is writing these files? And if found, is there a way to prevent them from being written? I'm running XP Pro, version 2002, SP2.
