- Windows XP Support >> Need Help with Microsoft Management Console (MMC)I have two machines, one on my left and one on my right.
By design I have named the machines LEFT and RIGHT :<)
The machines are LAN'ed together via a router and are able to share
each others folders in their root directories just fine. So my
network must be set up okay.
I want to try using Remote Management, and am trying to set up MMC to
do so. On LEFT machine, I brought up MMC (via command line) and went
to 'Add/Remove Snap-in', clicked on 'Add', and added 'Local Users and
Groups'. It asked me to name the computer I wanted to manage and so I
wanted to choose machine RIGHT. So I chose 'Another computer' and
'browse'. I then clicked on 'Advance' and 'Find Now'. It found LEFT
and RIGHT in Workgroup MSHOME, and I selected RIGHT. MSHOME\RIGHT
then showed in the select computer window. I then clicked on OK
and Finish. I immediately got the error 'Unable to access the
computer RIGHT. Access is denied'.
What have I missed?
Thanks

- Windows XP >> Documents & Settings Can of Worms: Too Many FoldersI've got eight different sub folders under Documents and Settings:
Administrator
Administrator.MICRON
All Users
All Users.WINNT
Anonymous
anonymous.MICRON
Default.User
Default User.WINNT
What do you call the concept that these sub folders refer to?
"Profiles"? "Users"? "I.D.s"? For now I'll call them "Users" for
lack of the proper term.
Trouble is, important data and program files have somehow gotten
scattered around amongst all of these different "Users."
I am the only user of this computer and so would like to have all of
my data and program files together in a single "User."
How may I sort out this mess?

a.k.a. "Clueless"
P.S. As for the question of how my Documents and Settings folder got
so scrambled up in the first place, I only have part of the answer.
One cause was that I first installed Windows 2000 as an upgrade to
Windows 98. But that installation became so unstable that I tried a
clean install of Windows 2000.

- Windows XP >> System restore, where are the back up filesAfter being unable to get into windows, I did a system
restore using the restore cd. Now I need to know where
it backed up the files to, so I can get them back. Did
it remove all of my programs? In the restore section,
going through windows, it won't let me pick another date
to restore from, I was going to just go back to another
day.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Search Engine Opening Out of Order?Every time I go to open a file folder the Windows XP "SEARCH" engine keeps
popping up instead. It took me a while to notice that "OPEN" had been replaced
by "SEARCH" as the primary function at the top of the box under the "FILE"
function command (?) list {what is the right name for those boxes under "File,
etc., etc. etc., etc. ..."}. Can I swap "SEARCH" for "OPEN" in some way, or
remove it from the list of "Command Functions" altogether (or at least place it
toward the bottom in a standby position)?
I know this sounds silly, and it was my own damned fault for not slapping my
hand when fiddling with important functions. Unfortunately, it has gone beyond
"SYSTEM RESTORE", I did something to make "SEARCH" a _permanent_ feature on the
list. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

- Windows XP Support >> Chkdsk problemI recently performed a Windows XP repair install on my system and,
fortunately, the install went well. The only problem I have found is that I
am now unable to run Chkdsk.. When I go to perform a scan via Tools on C:
properties, I am given the message "Windows was unable to complete the disk
check."
I have tried to run Chkdsk through the command prompt but receive a message
telling me that Chkdsk does not work on NTFS volumes - although I never had
this problem before the repair install.
Can anyone guide me in the right direction? The Microsoft website hasn't
been very helpful.
Thank you.

Windows XP Update >> share pictures and information
We have just come back from China with a tour of several people. We would
like to share our pictures with each other. Could you tell me in simple terms
how I would go about setting up some way for us to be able to share pictures
and they could have access to the pictures and add their own.

- Windows XP Support >> Need help with Memory LeakI am experiencing a memory leak, and I need help with figuring out what
to do. Is there something I can run to try and identify the culprit?
Once of the svchost.exe processes generally starts at around 29,256K.
The longer I leave my PC up, the more it just keeps growing. I went
away on vacation for a week, and the process had grown to 300,000+K.
Using TaskList /svc, this is what shows
Image Name: svchost.exe
Services:
AudioSrv, CryptSvc, Dhcp, dmserver,
EventSystem, helpsvc, lanmanserver,
lanmanworkstation, Netman, Nla, RasMan,
seclogon, SENS, ShellHWDetection, srservice,

Is there anything obvious?
Can anyone help me or suggest how to locate the problem?

- Windows XP Network >> Internet Connection Icon (connectoid)I have an ADSL router/firewall which connects to my ISP. This occasionally
goes down. Up to now I had an Internet Connection Icon in "Network
Connections" which I could click on to reconnect the ADSL router. This has
vanished and all attempts to get it back have failed. I also note that out of
three XP boxes on the same network only one ever had this icon.
I have tried all "825826" fixes which bring back the annoying dissapearances
of Network Connections but they don't fix the Internet Connection.
The machine is quite happy to connect to the internet but now I have to
power cycle the router when external the connection goes down. This isn't
very clever. Can anyone help please.

- Windows XP Setup >> Windows XP SP2I believe I have found a small problem after updating three
computers to SP2. Each computer was updated from the MS
update site via a broadband connection.
After the update I noted on my desktop that I could not
change the home page in Internet Explorer. On the desktop
and my laptop I had been using Google News as a home page.
Wanting to make a change I used the Tools Menu in IE to
select a new home page.
Much to my surprise IE would not change and kept going back
to Google News. I looked for and found a Knowledge Base
Article, back up the registry and did the changes the hard
way by editing the registry. The didn't work. (I am not an
expert on this.)
Read messages for same problems on the internet news groups
and everyone said you had a virus or spyware. All three of
our computers run Adware and Norton's virus programs and are
up to date. Ran Adware again on my desktop to make sure.
Nothing.
Went to Kelly's Korner for a possible registry script. He
had two, but were to lock or unlock the home page after it
has been set by the user. I ran the unlock. No go. I ran
the lock and it did blank out so that you could not make any
changes. Ran the unlock again and it allowed changes which
would not work.
After working with the desktop I started on the laptop which
used the same home page and found that I couldn't change it.
Went to my wife's computer which used a different home page
and again I could not change it.
So all three computers that were updated via MS update site
would not allow a user to change the home page in IE. It
is no big deal as one can create a shortcut to the site you
want to use as a home page, however I still can't figure out
why they could not be changed.
Any recommendations or help will be appreciated.

- Windows XP >> Windows Messenger 5.0 hangs while on VPNHello.
I am running Windows Messenger 5.0.0468 on an XP Pro 2002 SP2
machine.
WM is used in a corporate environment.
While I am logged on in my office.. it works like a champ.
When I VPN in (Cisco VPN Client for Windows) via SBC DSL connection,
WM open and just hangs without displaying contacts.
What I've tried so far:
1) Followed Jonathan Kay's instructions http://messenger.jonathankay.com/problem.aspx?ID=16
(Port 3389 was already being used)
2) Disabled windows firewall
3) Disabled DSL firewall
4) Disabled both Windows & DSL Firewall
5) Looked for Trillian plug-ins (couldn't find one)
6) Banged my head on the keyboard multiple times leaving an
impression
of a backwards V B N M on my forehead
7) Took a few shots of tequila
Obviously, none of these helped (except the tequila or the head
banging made forget there was a problem for a while).
Can anyone suggest something for me to try or an alternative client?
TIA

- Windows XP Network >> What causes Windows Sockets to get corrupt?This happened to one workstation back in Aug. 2005. This morning I'm
working and the next thing I know the internet connectivity is gone and
the phone software became disabled. Performing a Ping makes the
workstation beep and an extended character was listed (Pinging ä with 32
bytes of data:) but the ping completed. After swapping out the net card
with no change, I booted into W2K and everything worked fine. I realized
it was an XP issue so I booted back into XP and at a command prompt
typed "netsh winsock reset", which cleared the problem up.
What causes this corruption? It there any known issues?

- Windows XP >> BAK files from ???For some reason, unknown to me, I started getting .BAK files, daily, in the

greatly appreciated.

- Windows XP >> Minor "graphic" annoyanceI'm not sure if this would qualify as a graphic annoyance, but it is a
annoying and ugly (or at least not neat).
I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2
When I start my computer and log into my account, the My Computer icon is
the first icon on my desktop. It has a dotted outline around the text "My
Computer". If I click the desktop anywhere and then the taskbar (in that
order) the dotted line vanishes and does not re-appear. However, the dotted
outline does appear in some programs like WMP11, for example.
The dotted outline is like that of the Windows 98 dotted outline. I think
it's ugly and I never used to have it with XP. I can't remember when this
started, but it seems to me not that long ago. I also don't remember if I
made any system changes that might have caused this annoyance. I did play
with MSCONFIG a long time ago and unchecked almost everything in the startup
list except for about 4 or 5 items.
I would like to get rid of this little dotted border once and for all! Does
anyone know how I can? Registry edit? Or perhaps through the Windows
Interface? Thanks in advance!
P.S. When I check the "Notify me of replies" box in this window (post a
comment window, that is) I get that ugly border around the text also. Okay,
now it's gone...but it'll be back!

- Windows XP Support >> Can't access private folderHey. I had xp home installed on one partition of my hard drive, and had
relocated My Documents to another partition. I had it set to Private. I
didn't have xp home for all that long before i reinstalled it (about a
month). After the reinstall, i changed My Documents to where i had it on the
second partition, but when i tried to access the folder it gives the same
message that you would get if you trying to access a private folder from a
different user.
I've checked in the properties menu, and "Make this folder private" is not
checked. I even attempted to share the folder on the network I got an error
saying i don't have permission to access the drive. Does anyone know how I
can access it? It has a lot of important stuff in there.

- Windows XP Update >> missing updates fail to display after restoring system from backupJust restored a system with Stompsoft PC Backup from a backup made in late
12/05. Had to use with "overwrite all files" option due to an incomplete
software uninstall when System Restore failed to restore the prior
configuration. Running XP Pro SP2 with all patches up to and including
recent WMF patch installed prior to the restore.
Restored from DVD (standard backup, not a disaster recovery backup),
rebooted, then ran Microsoft Update expecting to have all of the interval
updates since the backup display as available. However, none did. "Review
Your Update History" lists all updates that had been installed prior to the
backup, with the last updates dated 12/13/05.
No errors were listed, but I tried recreating the update database, and still
have nothing show as available
Thanks,

replaced first back to original.
