[SOLVED] Windows Task Scheduler service is disabled, can not be started

Bingo! That got task scheduler running, and many other services that were stopped as well. I use selective startup, as I have WAY too much software and external hardware installed and attached to this machine, but I don't recall messing with the services section, yet I, or something else did...

[SOLVED] Windows Task Scheduler service is disabled, can not be started

I received very valuable help here, more than a year ago for a thorny (for me) issue. Another has popped up, and after much web searching with no success, I'm hoping someone will be able to get me out of another jam. Two weeks ago, I had 2 days of relentless malware warnings. I run registered...

[SOLVED] 64 bit applications not starting after MS or Firefox update

I think windows "heals" the path env. variable as soon as you exit the cmd line. The order is somewhat dirrerent, not much though, and everything is there. I cut and pasted it into a text file) before I cleared it, but it looks like everything is there. I installed Bit Defender, and it went...

[SOLVED] 64 bit applications not starting after MS or Firefox update

Richard, Thanks so much for you help and consideration. Replacing the Visual C++ Redistributal Ver. 10 package "cured" it. At least, all failing 64 bit apps I have tried in the last 30 minutes or so now run. I'm not sure how much I've learned along the way, but by lurking in the corners here...

[SOLVED] 64 bit applications not starting after MS or Firefox update

Michal, Thank you so much! My Adobe 64 bit products are all running. Bit Defender I have fully installed yet. I had to uninstall the version 10 visual c++ package first. The download complained that it was a newer version. Would that indicate the later version could have caused the problem...

[SOLVED] 64 bit applications not starting after MS or Firefox update

I should have had a clue, when Bitdefender failed to run. It said the condition error occurred when C++ redistributable package had been corrupted. I've downloaded it and will install shortly. Bit defender failed with a "0x?000007b" error, slightly different than other 64 bit apps, but their...

[SOLVED] 64 bit applications not starting after MS or Firefox update

[SOLVED] 64 bit applications not starting after MS or Firefox update

It's a self extracting zip. I have been sending files to my contractors and Peazip defaulted to that. Coreldrw.exe the app is much larger than a few meg. The file name should have been "CorelDRW_130417_034032.exe". My installation of Corel Draw is on my D: drive, and this file was loaded from...

Done. Renamed it msvcr100xx.dll. Tried to start Coreldrw.exe. Failed same message. Restored the name (windows had not created a new one). Created new dump with "procdump /ma Coreldrw.exe". Uploaded to Speedy. Thanks.

[SOLVED] 64 bit applications not starting after MS or Firefox update

That path was the last "c:\ ..." path directive appended to the end of the path statement. I took it out. Made no difference. The uploaded "Coreldrw...." dump WAS from Procdump, run in the directory I was directed to create. I ran the command substituting "CorelDRW.exe" for the "Failing.exe" in...
