I'm inviting all my CF family and friends to join me

instead of the politically correct "Happy Holidays"!!

If you agree with me, please re-post this message.....
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

We need Christ back into our lives
GOD IS WELCOME IN MY HOUSE。

You are my biggest fan Dave....I may post some pictures in a few days.

And I just remembered we have a planned power outage tomorrow. Hubby wants me to turn off my pc in the morning. This is the second time in less than 2 months for a planned outage...but the power never was off the first time.

 

[servant of Merciful Love]

Good luck angelwind....that will be a fun hobby

And yes...we want to see pics

Just a little helpful advice_ for future use


Whenever you power up your PC
~and you see the notice:
"Windows did not shut down properly last time"

There is the DANGER that you will be working your computer with corrupted files/programs
To correct and prevent this 'STATE/condition', from rubbishing your Operating System
Do, the following:

Go immediately to System Restore
~Start\ All Programs\ Accessories\ System Tools\ System Restore
Choose, RESTORE MY COMPUTER TO AN EARLIER DATE and click OK
Choose a date in the calendar
prior to, the date upon which the computer was last-closed
where in the right side pane of the RESTORE window
~you see and, click on System Checkpoint to highlight it and click OK
and let the RESTORE TOOL work at restarting your PC
If, you do not see SYSTEM CHECKPOINT for the earlier date
click on the next earliest date in the calendar UNTIL YOU DO

When your system restarts
it will do so with all programs and files that were running 'currently'
at the time & date of the checkpoint

your Bro'

Good to know Dave...thanks

I hope you are not without power too long, Angelwind

 

[davedajobauk]

Good to know Dave...thanks

LOL I am happy to POINT folks in the right direction

Been THERE!!! DONE THAT!!! oops!!!!

and 'counted-coups'
after having rebooted Operating System with assistance (on the phone) from Microsoft

Other folks can AVOID these pains
'when they take the safe path' back to the light

I saw the opportunity to 'wave a flag' at a known condition
and, did not shirk from, my duty to my friends

[servant of Merciful Love]

There have been times when the system has corrected itself....I am sorry I can't recall what notices came up.

You still have to boot up the system to get to start/all programs etc....or is there a command you type in ?

Sorry if I am a bit illiterate in this area I just do what the pc says to do

 

[davedajobauk]

When you start-up your system

~having closed previously_ with a power-cut /
iow: without saving while system was BUSY
with a number of programs and processes 'running'

Next time you Start Up...You are likely to see the warning >
"Windows did not shut down properly last time"


You do have, a number of choices [paths you may take]

You can continue TO USE WINDOWS regardless of the 'warning'
where then, you will be doing so
with a registry that has dead-ends registered inside it

~Programs may hang, and make the computer unresponsive [?]
When then, RESTARTING, compounds the initial problem
because windows will again SAVE YOUR PRESENT SETTINGS before restarting [?]

The RESTORE METHOD I mentioned above... while inconvenient, if, your time online, is limited
Is the safest way
to lose your computers present [corrupted] files and program settings
and to restart your computer CLEANLY

YOU WILL NOT LOSE ANY SAVED DATA [pictures/ files]
as only your windows settings will be backdated
to when they functioned properly... 'system checkpoint'


You can initiate a disk check [checkdisk]
via:
Start - Run - type chkdsk /f or chkdsk /r
/r takes longer, but is more effective

chkdsk /f will check your windows files are not corrupted

chkdsk /r also checks your harddrive for damaged sectors

and, if it finds damaged sectors_it will copy files to undamaged sector
and will write-off any damaged sector, so that your system will not see it, in future
Effectively, HIDING that sector and making your harddrive a little smaller
BUT much safer...
If these chkdsks find system file errors, they will rewrite them using windows cab files
stored in your computer upon installation
You MUST... [then]
go to Microsoft Update and Microsoft will update the files you have replaced from OLD cab files


PS. I have myself, many times, seen the alert
Windows has recovered from a serious error

For some applications they may restart and restore whatever workspace you had open,
but for Windows Explorer you may have noticed that they’ve disappeared,
and that you’re left with little choice but to open every single one of them on your own.
Worst-case scenario?
You encounter the same error message repeated every time you start your computer.
Now, this particular problem is more than likely caused by a problem with the system registry.
For those of you inexperienced with the technical aspects of computer maintenance, fret not.
This article will show you a simple way of resolving this problem, in no time at all.
When you first encounter the error message,
you will need to take note of the exact error message, word for word.
Usually the error message points out the cause of the error, and if you know where to look,
you’ll have no problem rectifying it immediately.
Look carefully at the error message when it pops up;
somewhere on the error message prompt
there should be some numbers and letters that would refer to the specific cause of the error
or faulty module, which can include your Page file, drivers, RAM
or other components of your computer.

But in order for you to get the full error message, you will first need to turn off
the automatic restart function of your computer.
By default, whenever your computer encounters a “serious error”,
it is programmed to restart automatically, which explains why most of your application windows
tend to close and reopen again once your computer recovers from its hiccup.

But the automatic restart would also cause the error message to disappear
once everything restarts, so you will need to stop this from happening
to get the full picture of what’s going on.
You can turn off the automatic restart function
by right clicking on your My Computer icon, and then Properties.
In your System Properties window,
click on the Advanced tab under Startup and Recovery area,
then go to Settings
and make sure the check box on Automatically Restart is unchecked.
Click OK to go back to the System Properties window
and save the settings.
Once this is done, your computer will no longer automatically restart
when it encounters such error messages in future.
You will have the chance to view the error
and take note of what it is that is causing the error to begin with.

However, keep in mind
that if you continue to encounter the same error messages
you will have to reboot your computer manually,
which can become a hassle if it happens too often

Actually, resolving the serious error problem is relatively easy.
Most of the time the problem is caused by a corrupt or cluttered system registry.
bad or incomplete installs can screw up the registry entries of your computer.
Even malware may have tampered with your system files and registry without your knowledge.
To fix this problem, simply use the combination of antivirus and registry cleaner programs,
one to clean your computer of viruses, the other to sort your registry and keep it in order.
So there you have it,
simple, hassle-free ways that you can do
whenever you’re wondering what to do
when Windows has recovered from a serious error.

I can recommend Microsoft Security Essentials [FREE]
and Comodo System Cleaner [also FREE]

I use BOTH myself
