shlwapi.dll - deleted file
Using a file "cleansing program" I must have deleted a
file and error message involving the above reference came
up. A friend tired to fix the problem, but now the error
message does not come up, but windows does not load. All
that is present on my screen is my wallpaper.
I may have the deleted file in my recycle bin - but how do
I access it.
I have a restore date but how do I access it.
Do I have to reinstall Windows ME. I understand that if I
do I have to delete IE as well.
Funny how all this seemed to happen with by last download
of IE security patch 3 days ago. Even when I used my
cleansing program, I was still able to use my computer -
until I rebooted..hmm
What is the best avenue to take. I don't want to lose
programs and files (video and music)...

Hard drive space issue
I'm running Windows ME on my HP Pavilion Laptop, which has
an 8 GB hard drive. I recently started getting messages
about the disk drive running out of room, so started
deleting files and programs. It seems each time I delete
something the space is immediately sucked up by something
else, not sure what. I've run virus scans, clean disk,
scan disk and disk defrag. Any ideas? I also noted a large
amount of space being taken up by
C:\Windows\TEMP...exactly what is this file and can any of
it be deleted safely? (It's not Internet temp files, those
have been deleted) TIA for any advice! Tag: updates Tag: 219601
System Boot Anomaly
Last week I installed the following Windows updates:
KB824145 for IE6 SP1
KB825119 for Windows ME and
KB828026 for Media Player.
Since installing these updates I've been experiencing a
number of system anomalies.
How about it Microsoft? Are these updates contributing to
issues described below?
Issue 1: The hyperlinks, e.g., My Documents, My Computer,
etc. no longer function from the Start Menu ( see the
thread of my post "Loss of Hyperlink Functionality" from
11/19/2003). Removing one of the updates (IE Update
Q824145) as suggested by one of the respondents had no
effect.
Issue 2: For the past two days I haven't had a single
clean boot of my computer. The process advances to the
stage with a blank blue screen (the desktop background)
and hangs. The mouse is useless for little more that
running the cursor around on the screen. The only response
from the keyboard comes when I press CTRL-ALT-DEL. This
invokes a sound from within the machine that makes me
think that a rapid-fire mechanical woodpecker
(metalpecker?) is attacking the hard drive.
The only recourse is to power down. Naturally, on the
subsequent reboot ScanDisk is activated (Improper shutdown
detected. Checking disk for errors.). Previously I've been
able to [CANCEL] / [CLOSE] ScanDisk when I knew that I had
not shut down properly and the boot sequence would resume
and complete. Now if I try to [CANCEL] / [CLOSE] ScanDisk
the system hangs and it's back to a power down/reboot
attempt. Fortunately, letting ScanDisk run to completion -
over the course of 8 to 12 minutes - results in a
resumption of the boot process culminating in a successful
reboot.
Now the kicker. The reboot issue may not be associated
with any of the updates. Examination of C:\SCANDISK.LOG
reveled the following:
*******************
Microsoft ScanDisk for Windows
NOTE: If you use an MS-DOS program to view this file, some
of the characters
may appear incorrectly. Use a Windows program such as
Notepad instead.
Log file generated at 09:28 on 11/21/2003.
ScanDisk used the following options:
Standard test
Automatically fix errors
Drive Local Disk (C:) contained the following errors:
The drive contained an error in its FSInfoSector.
Resolution: Repair the error
Results: Error was corrected as specified above.
ScanDisk found errors on this drive and fixed them all.
-------------------
What is FSInfoSector and what's its function?
If ScanDisk was able to fix the error why do I continue to
have problems?
Is the reported 8 to 12 minute ScanDisk time appropriate
for an 80 GB hard drive (about 30% full)? Tag: updates Tag: 219595
ME shuts down computer
When I was using WIN 98 with a different mother board, the program
would stop at the shut-off warning screen without actually turning the
computer off. With ME and a new mother board, the computer turns
itself off. Is this turning the computer off, a function of ME, or
the Bios (can't find it there?) or the mother board? Tag: updates Tag: 219594
Windows ME Startup errors
About half the time during my startups I get one of the
following messages:
1. Windows protection error. You need to restart your
computer.
System halted.
OR
2. An error has occurred. To continue:
Press Enter to return to Windows, or
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart your computer. If you do
this, you will lose any unsaved information in all open
applications.
Error: 06:0045:00005865
Press any key to continue
I then need to restart the computer manually then it
starts fine and performs fine. This has been going on
sporadically for some time. Any ideas?
