Ran ST last night and I was not disappointed. Very, very snappy now, and (I can tell), a much happier machine. This is such a great site.
Two glitches have showed up:
The first one I'm now having might (MAY?) be related to the now fixed, thanks to Samson, prior F1 issue, but I suspect not.
On boot this a.m. I was flagged: "This version of AudioESP not intended for this Operating System". I am unsure of just where this program came from or why it took so long to activate a flag, but I suspect it entered when I updated my drivers thru Dell, and picked a wrong version, or? I disabled it, noticed no change, and wonder if I should delete it or go back to the Dell site, run another diagnostic and update (needed) and see what I can see. The program is called SoundMax. The title on the flag box was SMax4PNP.exe.
Second: Since my attempts to correct the F1 issue started I have not checked my updates. My update is set to automatic download and install, and I have not, before the 14th, experienced any problems. I now find that I show no updates for Windows or MS since the a.m. of 7/14. The only update I see is for Adobe on 7/17. Nothing else installed or in history since the 14th. I tried to run MrFixIt, but found no program but one screen showing me how to push the "Update" button. I know MS, in their hubris and strong-arm drive to force us all to adopt W10, is backing out of W7 support, but until 7/14 have never gone a whole day without at least one update, usually more, and I am now up to 5 days. I then went to Windows Update Troubleshooter and got this after running diagnostic:
Fixed service registration is missing or corrupt/0x80070005(2015-07-20-T-09_42_37A)
When I saw "missing or corrupt" I ran /scannow, but it said everything O.K.
The synopsis of the code is: ERROR ACCESS DENIED The authentication method is not supported - CoCreateInstance(BackgroundCopyManager) fails with E ACCESSDENIED (0x80070005) in this condition. PROBLEM: NOT FIXED
Also: Problem installing recent updates PROBLEM: NOT FIXED
The main screen in the Troubleshooter says that these two problems are not fixed, but when I open up Details it says they are...?
I have surfed for information and corrections, but there are gaggles of sites with more than one opinion and usually with more than one corrective, and gaggles of sites that want to take over your machine, register your software, and muck around in the registry. I am not particularly down with that. Is there any way to find out if MS has promulgated any updates in a particular time period? I have also realized that my updating stopped (apparently) just about the time that my update load-bar got covered up by a banner exhorting me to "Reserve my FREE UPGRADE to W10". No, I'm not a conspiracy freak. Just sayin'....
I have scanned and cleaned and found nothing. AVG2015FREE/MalwarebytesFREE/Revo 1.95 Uninstaller/SpywareBlaster/CCleaner/MS MaliciousSoftwareRemovalTool
Any direction or opinions?
