    I'm now beginning to think Secunia PSI aint as good as its thought to be. In post #24, it shows 5 updates & VLC. It now shows JUST VLC as being in need of updating. Could it of updated them by its self?
    "Edit"Secunia now shows me as 100% updated.

    Don't know about Secunia PSI, never used 3rd party updater program before. Just rely on each program's own updater.

    @Rabbit01, sounds like a good idea to me. I had it on my XP but it was too slow. Think I'll dump it. Thanks.

    Is that the way you typed it out because the image says 130101 not 131101?

    "C:\Users\THOMAS~1\AppData\Local\Temp\Google_Earth_7.0.2.8415_130101-143810_1.dmp"

    The image is correct. Thank you for correcting it. Had a looong sober day yesterday.

    Don't know how big the dmp file is, but if it's small, maybe attach that to your post and hopefully someone can decipher and let you know what the problem is.

    Rabbot01, as I said in that post #44, the path don't exist. I've tried following it. IF I leave out "THOMAS~1", then go from AppData it still only goes to "Local & nothing after than.:confused:

    Oh, I see it now, I missed it. So just to confirm, "show hidden files, folders, and drives" is selected in Folder Options?

    How big is the file? I don't know anything about them but if the file is small, post it and maybe someone else can help you.

    I click on it (Google_Earth_7.0.2.8415_131101-143810_1.dmp) & I get the screenshot in post #50

    Right click and selecting properties should show you file size.

    Ok, I've done that but which tab do I click on? I have General, Security,Details,Previous versions.
  15. Rabbit01 TechSpot Enthusiast Posts: 773   +19

    Should be under general, like in XP.

    That's pretty small. Post it and maybe someone can figure out your problem.

    Clicking on the Upload a File button doesn't work? That's how I add pictures to my posts.
