  1. I can not paste the file you wanted me to send, so I will attach it for you. BTW, the Upload never stopped so I am sending the message anyway

    You cannot paste the notepad file? Try saving it to your computer, then open and paste.

  2. You will not be able to uninstall a Hot fix that does not work for you.

    Technically, now that CCleaner ignores the $hf_mig$ folder you can still uninstall hotfixes after the uninstaller has been deleted. However, it is more work once the Uninstaller has been deleted, and unless you're an advanced user I would not suggest removing those folders. ;)

  3. Sorry, I didn't see your post above mine.

     

    The entries not merging only belong to the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT section of the registry. Could you please navigate to [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regedit] > right-click and select export > save the file to your desktop > right-click the file on desktop > select 'edit' > then copy and paste the file in your reply. Also, do the same for [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile].

     

    You can check your permissions settings for regedit and regfile by looking at this picture.

    Last, but not least....I'm interested in the following entries that are showing in your Event Viewer.

     

    Error 12/17/2008 10:18:27 AM MsiInstaller None 11706 Dxxx xxxxxx PC191762682119

    Warning 12/17/2008 10:17:08 AM MsiInstaller None 1001 Dxxx xxxxxx PC191762682119

    Warning 12/17/2008 10:17:08 AM MsiInstaller None 1004 Dxxx xxxxxx PC191762682119

    Error 12/14/2008 8:12:03 PM Application Error None 1000 N/A PC191762682119

     

    Please double-click each item listed above one at a time. After double-clicking a little box will open. It the bottom corner you will see what looks like 2 pieces of paper overlapping each other, press on the picture and press CTRL+V in your response.

     

    Your Event Viewer is showing repeated MsiInstaller and Networking errors. Are you having any other problems? I'm curious because your network could contain Group Policies that are interfering with your ability to modify the indicated section of the registry.

     

    Thanks for your patience. Hope all is going well.

    K~

  4. Did you fix it by uninstalling the updates? If so, then reinstalling Windows won't solve anything because Windows Update will install the update again. Assuming that you uninstalled the updates to fix the problem...you can install the updates one at a time and determine which update causes the problem.

     

    First change your automatic updates to notify you when updates are available, but not download and install them. Go to the Windows Update website via Start > All Programs > at the top you'll see Windows Update and choose express and uncheck all of the updates except one of them. When you find the update causing you the problems you can uninstall it, then hide it on the website so that Windows Update will not install it again.

     

    Let me know if you have any questions.

  5. Well if you want to give up I understand. Sometimes trying to fix computer problems is a huge headache. But if you don't mind hanging in there a bit longer I would really appreciate you helping me troubleshoot this problem. I did some searching and this seems to be a common problem so your assistance in solving the issue would be helpful to a lot of people.

     

    I need some more information for more solutions.

    If you could please click Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer

    * Now click on 'Applications' in the Left Box > View > Filter > uncheck everything except for 'Warning', and 'Error > click 'Apply' then 'OK'.

    * Now click on 'Action (at the top) > Export List > Save As 'Applications'.

    * Now click on 'System' in the Left Box and follow the instructions above and name the file 'System'.

     

    Once the files are saved please upload the files in your next post. Look at the bottom of your screen when replying...there is an upload option. Depending on the size of the files you may need to upload each file in a separate reply.

     

    Now, here is what I have come up with so far on the topic...but I'm not sure if it will help you although I hope it will.

     

    For Windows XP ONLY

     

    NOTE: If you receive an error that reads something similar to ?Not all data was successfully

    written to the registry. Some keys are open by the system or other processes" use Method 2.

     

    Method 1:

    1. Save REG File Association Fix to Desktop. Download Here

    2. Extract the file to your desktop.

    3. Go to Start > Run > type ?Regedit?

    4. In the Registry Editor, go to File > Import, browse the regfile on the desktop that you just extracted, highlight, and hit 'Open'.

    5. Reboot

    6. Now double-click the CCleaner registry back-up, or right-click and select merge.

     

     

    Method 2: Import the Regfile in SafeMode

    ? Turn on, or Reboot the computer.

    ? Start tapping the F8 key repeatedly.

    ? When the boot option screen appears select ?Safe Mode?.

    ? Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode.

    ? Merge the regfile by double-clicking the file, or right-click and select merge.

    ? Reboot normally.

     

     

    If either of these methods work for you please let us know. :D Good Luck!

  6. Can you copy and paste the file that you are trying to import?

    > Right click the file

    > Choose 'open with'

    > Browse and select 'Notepad'

     

    Once the file is open

    > press CTRL+A

    > then press CTRL+C

    > in your reply here press CTRL+V

     

     

    EDIT: I ask this so that we can look at the keys being merged to confirm whether or not they are showing the correct Registry Version.

  7. You have been VERY helpful and VERY kind, I really appreciate your time and effort.

     

    I don't know why I cannot restore the Regisrty file and am giving up :(

     

    I did find out that PhotoGallery is an HP program and was part of my HP C6150 printer. I found the installation CD and the installation process found the CD and seemed to load something. I have yet to restart the machine again (just too frustrated!!!) but I think it should be okay.

     

    Once again you have been too kind AND I probably won't be running the Registry Integrety process again.

    Yes, computers are can be frustrating at times. :rolleyes:

     

    But I would suggest accepting additional help in determining why you can't import your .reg file because whatever the problem may be could cause additional problems in the future.

     

    Also, was this your first time using CCleaner?

  8. Well, no luck. Dial-a-fix finished and I restarted the system. I still get the same Error message that thier was an error accessing the registry.

     

    The only reason for doing this is that the system brings up a box asking for a disk with an installation file for something called PhotoGallery (PhotoGallery.msi) I can" find the file or start up to find out why this is happening. Would I dare run the CCleaner Registry Integrety process again????

    does this happen when you turn on the computer? If so, open CCleaner > click Tools > click Startup then take a screen shot an post it in this thread.

     

    Maybe Andavari will know why the .reg file isn't merging. It doesn't make sense because the Registry versions should be the same.

  9. I checked and I am the Computer Administrator

    If you weren't Administrator you wouldn't have been able to fix the Reg Issues using CCleaner in the first place. But, your administrator permissions could need repairing. We will see. ;)

  10. It might be faster just to repair your permissions and see if that works first.

     

    Download DAF.

     

    Once you extract the Dial-a-fix archive, double click on Dial-a-fix.exe, click Tools, click Repair Permissions, and click GO.

     

    Reboot, and try to merge the .reg file again.

  11. I am a new user and just tried my first Registry restore. I tried both methods recommended (Right click on the backup file and Regedit Import) and they both failed with the same error... "Error accessing the registry" I have never done this before, so don't know if it is a new or old problem.

     

    The reason for doing the restore is that after cleaning the issues (this was the second time I cleaned my machine) I now get s box telling me that the system is trying to load Photo Gallery and needs disk 1. I can't find Photo Gallery anywhere on my machine!

     

    I am running XP Professional 2002, Service pack 2 if that helps. I am the only user on the system and THINK I have Admin rights.

    Hi Diabrams,

     

    Where is the file that your are trying to import saved on your computer?

  12. Why don't more people use BitDefender's Free AntiVirus software if it's good enough as a scanner in the Spyware Hell Forum? I'd think that everyone would be using Bitdefender, but it seems most are using AntiVir. :blink:
