Should i remove my account so that windows starts up automatically so that maybe i can use my pc again without a reinstall? Imgur: The magic of the Internet (https://imgur.com/a/dirrQqE)

Computer keeps loosing internet connection but other devices do not.

About once a week or more my computer looses its internet connection. I know this because I get the ! in the yellow triangle or the red x over the monitor icon in the task bar. I will also not be able to reach any web site. The strange part is that other devices within the house do not loose their internet connection. Items such as cell phones, tablets, Alexa, and my TV do not loose their...

MSE claims not enough disk space to remove exploits

Microsoft Security Essentials has identified two exploits, Win32/Pdfsjc and Win32/Winwebsec. It recommends removal, which I tried. However, instead of removal, MSE claims error 0x80070070, not enough disk space, and also claims quarantine was used instead. Running MSE again, shows that these exploits are still active, not in quarantine. Running Malwarebytes free software, no threat is identified....

I am returning a Seagate portable back up drive that I'm disappointed in. Unfortunately, instead of reading first on how to TRULY get rid of the one folder on it in such a way that it can't be retrieved, I simply deleted it and reformatted the drive. But that's not enough, I learned. So I now have the Eraser from Portable Apps. But it tells me that (and the drive now has nothing...

Hi! Skype billed me for an additional subscription, after I'd told them I didn't want to use their services. I don't see the bill in my Skype account, but it does show up in my Paypal account. Paypal sent me a message saying that they won't let them bill me again. But already, the $39 was stolen from me through their claiming I'd asked for a subscription. I've send a reply on several...

Good morning/evening, I'm trying to change the logon screen for my windows 7 pro, x64. Is there a way to get rid of "Administrator" AKA username? Also the little arrow next to the password box?

LAN Network File Copying - Some Files FAST; Some Files SLOW. Why?

I have a Gigabit network and for most files i get 100+ MB/s speeds when copying to/from another networked Windows 7 x64 PC. However, there are some specific files (of equivalent sizes as the faster ones == 1-3 GB) which refuse to go faster than 50-59MB/s both ways. I first thought it could be that the PC's HDD's were heavily fragmented so i defragged both. That didn't help at all. I...

System Service Exception after doing memory upgrade.

My computer came originally with 4GB total in the form of 2 - 2GB DDR3 chips, one in each of the paired 4 slots. Have upgraded to 12GB total using 2 4GB chips in the first pair of slots and the original 2 - 2GB chips paired in the remaining two slots. Since then I've been experiencing SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION sporadically. I think the memory upgrade is responsible. I did read on a memory...

Media players get choppy when idle while connected to the internet

I have this really weird problem. When I watch a saved file on my computer using either vlc or wmp, the video starts framing after 10 minutes. But when I start moving my mouse or press any key on my keyboard, the problem goes away. It then gets choppy if there is no user input for the next 10 minutes. I'm assuming that this may have something to do when the computer being idle. Then I had a...

There has been a reoccurring error showing up in the event viewer. I get the following error, "Event ID: 36887 Schannel. The following fatal alert was received: 70." I've been doing research, and pretty much know its saying that the process is using an insecure url, but it's been updated to use a secure one and to ignore. However, at the frequency it's happening, it's starting to get a bit...
