Hi,
I followed the 8 steps, which cured my hidden task manager.
However my computer is still almost unbearably slow and has some annoying habits. On start-up and intermittently the computer freezes. Occasionally this is fixed by pressing windows key and cursors to 'sleep', but if that's frozen too I have to switch off and on again which of course takes ages and loses saved data.
I was following someone's advice on speeding up my system by getting rid of any unnessecary start-up programs, but there are a large amount from unkown publishers, such as:
File Name: ul7hu59iay.exe
Startup Value: C:\Users\DALELI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\ul7hu59iay.exe
File Path: C:\Users\DALELI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\ul7hu59iay.exe
Startup Type: Registry: Current User
Location: Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Classification: Not yet classified
SpyNet Voting: In Progress
These aren't present on any of my housemate's computers so I was guessing they're dodgy.
Also my Microsoft Word isn't working. Upon start-up an error message reads 'MS word has not been installed for the current user. Please run set-up to install the application.' The program boots up in the background fine, but then closes. The rest of MS office is fine.
I don't have much space (3.5gb) on my C drive, but I've got a new 500gb hard drive which should fix that when I get some help setting it up.
Also wireless stops working occasionally but I'm assuming that's just my card because it's been doing it for a while.
Sorry for the length of the post but have tried to be as descriptive as possible.
Logs are attached.
Many thanks,
Dale.
