I had a problem reinstalling recuva, It downloaded and seemed to install but when i clicked on the desktop shortcut, a window flashed then disappeared
I read a thread on this forum (which I couldn't find again) that suggested to run in safe mode'
I did, went to folder ran innstall, it did and now runs when I restart normally.
the person complaining in the thread should have tried it. worked for me.
By the way I did install it before and ran it before without any problems. That was when I still had Mcaffee suite that came with AOL. Since then I dropped that and am now using Comodod free firewall with Avast free AV. ( MY opinion much better than McAfee). also have install threatfire
In both cases I always have been using for years WinPatrol and Spybot Search and Destroy. Would run a computer without them. AND CCleaner has been one of my tools to rely on since it was known by its' previous name crapcleaner.
Good stuff Thanks.
wish I could contribute but right now going through tough times. Once I get back on my feet, well you will be thought of. Thanks again
