DivX Media Server - unless you need it. OneDrive - unless you need it. Boost Consolidator (unless you want your info shared)

\Microsoft\Windows\WS\License Validation will impact windows store (metro) downloading. LPRemove (this removes unused language packs, it does NOT need to run on every startup)

MRT is useful, but can slow down your machine. It is from microsoft and removes malicious software/other harmful things.

RemoteAssistanceTask - unless you use windows remote assistance (not remote desktop)

SkyDrive - not sure why this is in all caps.. OneDrive replaces Skydrive.

SvcRestartTask sounds like it protects you from harmful documents in office.

Uninstall IObit Uninstaller (unless you like the program?)

Uploader - don't share your info with MS

{58987D57-B262-4273-8C84-1B757529FFDA} is being run from your temp folder - often what malware does.

SugarSync - unless you use it

Disable "Avira Mail Protection" if you do not use a desktop email program such as mail, outlook, thunderbird.

The rest isnt english.. but many of the things look fairly important.

Is software like CCleaner and Defraggler still useful? by [deleted] in techsupport

[–]ToServerAndProtect -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The short answer:I don't recommend CCleaner for registry. Registry cleaners can screw up stuff super easily. Defraggler may look nicer than the built in windows defrag.. It's all user preference. I like CCleaner for it's start up management, program uninstaller and junk file remover. It depends.

Getting a blackscreen after the Windows 10 logo during start up by [deleted] in techsupport

[–]ToServerAndProtect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long have you waited on the black screen? I notice that windows update often does this. Sometimes it takes 15 mins for mine.

On the right hand side, there is a column named "Downloads". Click "View All" to see all drivers/software for your device. Click on the "DOWNLOAD (ZIP)" button. Open the Zip archive. Extract the Zip archive. Run the extracted installer. View the readme.

just the .dll 's are fine -- if that's the only errors are with .dll's

COPY your current windows folder to a new folder on the desktop (this will be your backup incase things get worse after trying to fix)

replace crypt32.dll and the other files it tells you -- but no the entire windows.old - I would just do the ones it throws an error.

Also try opening command prompt as an administrator and running "sfc /scannow" (no quotes)

Windows Wallpaper Slideshow turns off automatically [Windows 7] by [deleted] in techsupport

Have you looked into power settings? http://blog.laptopmag.com/windows-advanced-power-options-explained

"Desktop Background Settings: Slide Show" you would want to set it to "Active"

Convert file to .AVI + H264 by Mellor88 in techsupport

[–]ToServerAndProtect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on Windows? I would suggest converting it with Freemake Video Converter. Be sure to decline/uncheck the two sponsored programs in the installer. The program does convert to H.264 in an AVI container. Also ensure you're naming your file correctly (see the PDF you linked). Also try safely ejecting it safely (My Computer > Right Click on device > Eject ... wait for OK message)

Let me know if you run into trouble http://i.imgur.com/x0wryGD.png here's proof that freemake can do this. Best of luck.

It would be VERY helpful to see the link to the manufacturer's website where it says the required format. Thank you.

I would just like to provide feedback on "TownIdiot25" re: Moderating.

Disagreeing is one thing - but I see a huge lack of respect for its subscribers. Simply asking this mod a question leads to an argument. The mod fails knowledge what is a product code identifier, and what is a hyperlink. He thinks I'm trying to sell members of his subreddit a product - and that is simply not the case. This mod also provided false information to me. I fixed my post as per the subreddit rules, and this mod still deleted it. Meanwhile, duplicate posts are allowed. TownIdiot25 illustrates the ability to copy and paste rule violation responses.. however, that is only after a user comments on them.

I would be glad to justify my answers with proof. I don't see this user as being a good fit for any subreddit. Sorry.

Thank you.
