Try another disk...i personally wouldn't rely on Windows backup for any of my data.

dl65,

Hi-Guy !

Disc Problem Solved !

According to the post below, there is mention of the prefetch file,
previously in this topic, I told you that the D/L's were searched and they were in the prefetch file, . . I asked you where on my system I could find this file, you never answered me on that, . . .Is there a particular reason you didn't ?

Also Prevex is running fine and reads computer security is good no issues, do I really need the other 3 D/L's ?

1. Start/run, type msconfig, click OK. Under the startup tab, look for it or anything related to it and diasable.
2. Look in the prefetch folder and delete it or anything related.
3. Disable system restore.
4. Boot to safe mode and rerun the scans. If the problem is detected and repaired, reboot normally. Re-enable system restore if desired.
NOTE: It might be a good idea to disconnect from the internet while doing this.

O.K.

I found the file >C:\Windows\prefetch<, . . but I was instructed , when trying to open it that Windows would have to go online to open it, which I did but it was not able to open it, or I could open it manually but to choose a program from a list to open it, I hate that, how am I suppose to know what program to choose if it can't find it online where it was suppose to have originated ??

I later found out that these files sometimes wind up here because of an efficient way of downloading and the file stored is only part of the file.

I can not figure out what good this is doing me.

Anyway, there are alot of files here, taking up space and I'm going to have to do some work to find out which one's are necessary.

The same thing goes for Windows updates, there is a long list of these in add/remove, and I am wondering, when updates come automatically from MS to replace others, what happens to the file it replaces, am I suppose to know which ones are necessary and the ones that aren't  ?

Knowing that would put my mind at ease and probably provide a better running system.

The NTUninstall files are there in case you have a problem with anupdate and need to uninstall it...
If none of your updates have caused problems they are safe to delete.

But random deleting of files is also a good way to hose Windows...
