I need to disable password expiration on Windows 7 Home Edition

[abvp]

I downloaded the filewhiz file and when I try to open the dmp file, the filewhiz doesn't show up as an option to open the file. It won't let me open filewhiz. It keeps saying an instance of it is already running.

Now file whiz says it cannot open the dmp file.

I'm not sure where you got filewhiz from, nobody mentioned that.

The dmp files need to be opened by Windbug.

The last few posts are about zipping the file up.

Filewhiz is what showed up after I clicked the link on the page to download the zip thing at that website link to download something to unzip the file. Windbug never showed up.

Which link are you referring to? None of them contains Filewhiz.

You do NOT need to unzip anything.....just upload the zip file here. We will do the rest.

 

[derekimo]

It shouldn't have, it goes right to 7zip for me.

Forget about that for now, I think you have other pressing matters.

Can't you right click on the files and send to zipped folder?

I think filewhiz might be a virus or something. Malewarebytes now is detecting something. Still scanning.

I am reading the how to for zipping a file now.

I think you need to stop what you are doing, and scan your system thoroughly.....it looks like your system is still in the grips of malware.

Do a complete scan using this tool - opt to delete all infections it finds:
ESET Free Online Scanner :: Complete Malware Detection :: ESET

Malwarebytes probably picked up the installIQ from filewhiz.

You don't need filewhiz, and it shouldn't have redirected you there so get rid of it.

My laptop will now only start up in safe mode. When I try to start it normal it never boots up all the way and just stays at a dark blue screen.

Malewarebytes got rid of the filewhiz.

I finally got that one file to do a zip file though.

I had done this before I had found this forum. I'm scared this might be why it won't boot up.

Brablc.com » Disable password expiration in Windows 7 Home Premium

UserAccount where PasswordExpires=TRUE set PasswordExpires=FALSE

That's what it told me to put in the wmic. This was the first time I tried to reboot since doing it.

Can that make your computer not boot up?

 

[derekimo]

That looks like the same thing in option two here,

Okay, so that isn't what did it then? Was it that filewhiz? Malewarebytes deleted filewhiz, but my laptop still won't boot up.

I see several issues -one being Macfee and the other being that you are logged as \tech, and not jessica.

Leave all that for the time being and see where you can run the ESET scan from Safe Mode

 

[abvp]

It is not allowing me to scroll down far enough in safe mode to click accept to start the ESET scan.

Try using the down arrow on the keyboard

Okay, it is scanning now.

I have found that under Computer / Users it has Tech as a user. I never created that user account, and it does not show up as a user under control panel.

ESET scan is showing HTML/iframe.B.Gen virus.

Iframe.B.Gen is what is redirecting your webpages, is it still happening when you try to follow the link?

Please download AdwCleaner by Xplode and save to your Desktop.

• Double click on AdwCleaner.exe to run the tool.
  Vista/Windows 7/8 users right-click and select Run As Administrator.
• Click on the Scan button.
• AdwCleaner will begin...be patient as the scan may take some time to complete.
• After the scan has finished, click on the Report button...a logfile (AdwCleaner[R#].txt) will open in Notepad for review (where the largest value of # represents the most recent report).
• The contents of the log file may be confusing. Unless you see a program name that you know should not be removed, don't worry about it. If you see an entry you want to keep, let me know about it.
• Copy and paste the contents of that logfile in your next reply.
• A copy of all logfiles are saved in the C:\AdwCleaner folder which was created when running the tool.

Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.

• Shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts.
• Run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista, 7, or 8; instead of double-clicking, right-mouse click JRT.exe and select "Run as Administrator".
• The tool will open and start scanning your system.
• Please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system's specifications.
• On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.
• Post the contents of JRT.txt into your next message.

Run these when you can, if you cannot boot up into normal mode, you can run these in safe mode as well.
Thanks
