Am on 21H1 and the Pactr deal did not work. When I would get to those settings I was told I was denied access and I AM the Administrator on a privately owned standalone home computer. Even taking...

Excellent tutorial Kari.

I recently upgraded from a FX-8350 on a M5AFX99 system to a Ryzen 5 3600 on a ROG Strix B450F-II both using Win 10 20H2 OS and now the PC thinks it is a Server because I am getting all sorts of...

Could you please explain to me how Disk Management is related to PerfNet & MSDTC Errors?

Your link on how to create a screenshot and post it as a response takes me to the General Forum page.

After upgrading from older FX-8350 (M5A99FX) setup to the newer Ryzen 5 3600 using Asus B450F-II and everything that goes with it, have noticed a host of Server related errors in Event Viewer whereas...

thanks guys that did the trick....;)

yes it is a DNS with this explanation : There was an error while attempting to read the local hosts file.

when I go to that directory all I see is a imhost.sam file....no local hosts

Keep getting a lot of these (Win10 Pro 1909) and all the answers googling around are ages old.
ex:
Check your %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\ directory for a "hosts" file, if it doesn't exists...

That makes sense an come to think of it it did slow down after a Mbam update....thanks for that heads up.

Hey Brink,,

Option 1 now seems to work a tad faster than the older model. I'd say it cuts the time in half but is not as quick as it once was. But hey it's faster and thanks I'll be using this...

Question; I've been using the .BAT file (Win 7 Viewer.bat) for a few yrs and when running it as Admin it always sped thru the cleaning mode, but now, it has slowed down to where it does one line at a...

thanks topgundcp....odd that when I did the fresh clean install on a new SSD that it didn't create the partitions like it should have...thus later on doing an in-place refresh I believe the Windows...

Thanks tomcat...I don't really consider this 'solved' just put off. I've clicked on 'solved' things before only to find it really wasn't solved but shoved on a back burner. Wish there was something...

In April 2019 I did a Clean Install of Windows 10 from scratch and two partitions were created at that time. I had to manually create a UEFI partition using the built in Windows program Convert...

Oddly enough running that command prompt shows RE: disabled and nothing else is listed but the BCD GUID.

Today I did an in-place refresh of windows 10 and noticed that in doing so the program created another System Reserve Partition.

Is there a way to reconcile these partitions without having to do a...

Upon further review and noticing that the iehistory was listed under my Z:\ drive, I disconnected the drive and those iehistory index deals stopped popping up.....go figure. I only use that drive for...

I don't have any IE or Internet Explorer listed in Programs and Features...and haven't used IE since the XP days...when all the security issues started happening. Chrome is my default browser. This...

Tried 'em all...even a New User....the 'iehistory' is still there as before....if I could just find out where it is stored to delete it.

thanks, ran the .bat file(option 3).....will post back if works...or doesn't work....either way

After restarting and several hours usage the 'iehistory' listed as...

have rebuilt the index on numerous occasions (first thing tried really) and the iehistory still pops up...if I could just locate where it is stored or being originated from....

yeah I tried the Csc offline files thing, I'm having a hard time finding where this 'iehistory' thing starts up or where it is located.
I also did a complete fresh install of Win10 back in April...

When I go to the Indexing Options in Control Panel and select Modify I get the same box checked no matter how many times I uncheck it. Can not seem to find where this 'iehistory' is saved or stored....

Yeah you may have a point about changing the ownership of C:\drive.

What happened was using my printer, I scanned a document (in .jpeg) and could not open it nor could I do anything with it. That led me to seeing the default 'Open with' deal was set to that darn...
