  1. This was interesting.

     

    Q. Why are my restore points missing or deleted?

     

    A. If no free disk space on monitored system drive or on any of the available non-system drives exists, System Restore will purge restore points consistently across all monitored partitions to free disk space. If the free disk space falls below 50 MB on any monitored partition, System Restore will stop monitoring and suspend.

     

    Note: Some users have reported that using the Real Player One utility has deleted restore points. Please review your System Event Viewer log for System Restore events for a volume error event.

     

     

    Restore points are saved in under x:\system volume information\_restore{558C94FD-3C7F-4954-A02D-

    26679E6D849E}. Each restore point's files are saved in a folder named RPXX where XX is a two digit number

    corresponding to the restore point.

  2. Sorry Aaron, but you lost me here.

     

    i THINK it was just an update that you got.

    An update of what? What update would erase system restore points?

    what version of ccleaner are you using?

    He said he's using the latest version

    also check under the advanced section and see if you have anything selected there.

     

    There aren't any options that say it will delete system restore points.

     

    Okay, I am running XP and my system restore points aren't being deleted. Maybe someone else is experiencing this? I have a feeling it isn't CCleaner doing it though.

  3. Yep oli is right.

     

    1. I know that I just recently upgraded my Linksys router. That's the first thing to do.

    2. Then change the channel. What can happen is wireless/cordless phones can interefere with the connection because they run on the same frequency as the router.

     

    Try those things first then let us know if that helped. Also, what is that satellite thing? What does it do? Do you have a link for it?

  4. Hello and welcome :)

     

    Gosh that is not good. I'm not really sure where to start with this one to be honest. Can you start with giving some more information and a screen shot?

     

    Did you make a backup of the changes?

    What OS are you running?

    What version of CCleaner are you using?

    Can you post a screenshot so that we can see what you are talking about?

    Have you installed anything else recently?

     

     

    Thanks,

    K

  5. Welcome :)

     

     

    What do you mean by 'system backups'? Do you mean 'system restore points', or your own personal back ups of your PC?

     

    What OS are you running?

     

    What version of CCleaner are you running?

     

     

    Thanks,

    K

  6. malware is now becoming a major problem simply because many users don't know what it is or how to stop it. And in reality its fairly easy to stop and prevent.

    Agreed. :P

     

    If people would just take Andavari's advice about layered security the HJT forum wouldn't be so damn swamped all the time. lmao

  7. Hello, I don't understand what you mean.

     

    Download DAF Here. Download it to your desktop so that you can find it easily. Then extract it to your desktop so that you can find it. ;)

     

    Lauch DAF > (click) Tools > (click) Repair Permission > (click) GO > Reboot

     

     

    After that try CCleaner again. Let us know if you have anymore problems.

  8. if your REALLY worried about it you could try to install it again then do a full remove. it might ask at one point.

    i would try krit86lr's suggestion first and use this as a last resort.

     

    What suggestion? I only helped him repair his permissions. I forgot about the adobe thing... :blink:

     

    Should i keep that on my desktop? I noticed its got alot of options. I'm kind of afraid I might play with it & get rid of something I shouldn't.

     

    Are you talking about Dial-A-fix? If so, it's really up to you whether or not to keep, but it isn't dangerous so I would not encourage you to be worried about it. But do whatever makes you more comfortable. There isn't any reason to use it unless you have pinpointed a problem and know which settings to use to fix the problem. ;)

     

     

    OK krit86lr,,,You rock,,,

     

    Actually, DjLizard rocks for creating such an awesome tool for all of us to use. :)

  9. OK fair enough,,I,ll post a hjt log just for the heck of it & You tell Me,,, I may be wrong,,,& sure as heck aint as smart as everybody else on this board, But I do appreaciate the help, & Really enjoy the site, Thanks again Cowboy

     

    And we enjoy new people. ;)
