Taking back Program Controls : For the Beginners!
So, let’s face it, this is one of the most annoying problems there are with programs. Programs that you think are shut down but are actually still active in the Taskmanager. So I figured I’d talk about some of the most common fixes for these problems. Now as you know there can be any number of programs or glitches as they say, causing the problems. So let’s talk about the why, shall we.
Most of the time programs don’t quit because they are waiting for some kind of response from the system or the System is waiting for the program to close by itself. It could also be a problem with a Virus or Root kit? How do you fix it?
Fixing the problem is somewhat just trial and Error. It isn’t always the hardest thing to do but sometimes people overlook the easiest solutions. So here are some easy ones:
- Check to see if one of the Microsoft updates are causing the problem – Sometimes you might not realize it, but having installed an update can cause problems like KB951748. That one caused a major Headache for Zonealarm. So it is wise to check each months updates when you start seeing problems, sometimes it could of been happening for a while but it can sometimes cause troubles.
Having trouble with I-tunes Here is way to fix the problem:
Comments OffI’ve been having problem with I-Tunes lately and I wanted to talk about how to fix the problem that come along with using it.
Err = 8008 [A corrupt file that can't be completed due to some kind of glitch in downloading the file. It can happen to anyone at anytime.]
To Fix the problem here are the steps you must do:
-
Go to the I-tunes Music Directory – C:\USERS\[USERNAME]\MUSIC\ITUNES\ITUNES MUSIC\DOWNLOADS
-
Look for the corrupt files, depending on the problem you can expect to see two or three directories. Find the one directory that has the corrupt file and delete the whole directory.
-
Once that is done load up I-tunes and go to the Store Tab and Check for Purchases.
-
This will get I-tunes to download the file again.
