How in the hell did you figure that out? I've been googling forever and at microsoft came to a dead end with their "pay us and we will tell you how to fix it" answer. Any way thanks for that invaluable info. Much appreciated.

1) Check your firewall to make sure ports are open and that program is allowed to access the internet.

 

2) try finding a manual update on the internet and save it somewhere on your computer and running it manually.

 

Hope it helps.

Pressing "Shift+Delete" only bypasses the confirmation dialog when you delete a file or folder. It still goes to the recycle bin. I could be wrong but I think that is what that particular hotkey combination does.

 

Oops I am wrong.

Remember to backup your files BEFORE attempting to repair or reinstall Windows.

 

If you reinstalled windows (or repair-installed) with a different username than the original one you had then they may be in the original directory ("C:\Documents and Settings\<old user name>...)

Hope that helps.

["application management" problems]

Hi I'm new to this forum but I thought this would be the best place to post this question. I have Windows XP Home SP2 and there is a service named "Application Management" listed in the services menu, but according to Microsoft this service isn't supported in Windows XP Home Edition only XP Pro. I get errors in the Event Viewer/System logs. It's hard to narrow down what I am running at the time the error occurs. Has anyone had this problem, and if so is there a fix for this?

Also why do I have this service if it isn't supported in XP Home? Any help/fix would be appreciated. BTW, Microsoft's site said it is a known issue and in order to get support I have to pay for it. Thats not gonna happen. Anyway thanks in advance.
