Some programs start but quickly shut down

[aupeter]

Hi guys,

I am new to this forum and I have encountered this problem for the first time.

Several, but not all, of my programs start and then shutdown after about 3 seconds for no reason. They are not minimized, or off screen, they just shut down.

Anyone with any ideas and I would be grateful.....thanks Peter

It sound like those programs, what ever they are need to be run as a administrator. Right tick on the program and select Run as Administrator.

It would also be helpful to know what programs you are referring to.
Do you have admin privileges?

Hi Layback,
1. there are a number of programs....certainly the Microsoft Office Programs are now showing this feature
2. cannot run Office programs as Adminsitrator

Next step?

Do you have admin privileges? If you don't do you know who does?

How many user account are installed on this computer?

 

[aupeter]

yes, I have privilges....and only one account on PC.....but Office programs don't even have the right click Run as ADministrator option. Other programs do have this right click option, but not Office.

 

[Layback Bear]

Okay. How long has Office been on your computer and which Office is it.

Is their any other programs that act the same?

I'm asking all these question for a reason. The more information we have about your problem the better advice we can give.

I know very little about Windows 7 Office but if need be I will find a member that does.

Office 2010....installed 3 months ago......other program is RealTemp won't start...SpotMau doesn't work properly now either (I can open the main program but not start the programs within it)

I'll fill out the System Specs now

[aupeter]

system specs done! and now running SFC

 

[aupeter]

SFC done - "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."

 

[Layback Bear]

Your system specs don't indicate that you have a anti virus program installed. Not good.



Please list all your security programs and all Cleanup, Tuneup, and Registry tools.

I have no idea what this is.

malware Antibytes

Hi guys, I ran disk checker (had to be done on startup NTFS) and now I have the BLACK SCREEN. I left it alone for 6 hours and up came the windows log in (logged in) and then I got BLACK SCREEN again. I left it alone for 8 hours and still BLACK SCREEN. I tried power off and restarting but still black screen. I tried inserting the Windows 7 Installation Disk and nothing. I tried booting to safe mode ...nothing....black screen.....No cursor, nothing.......HELP

 

[aupeter]

re no virus on machine is because I don't receive email or web browse on this PC - it is connected to internet for data only.

 

[Layback Bear]

If you are connected to the internet in any fashion your system can get infected.

Just how are you connection to the internet without a browser?

giving up

Hi Bear, I couldn't wait for a reply so I tried a few things....even tried as slave on another PC - and tried windows recovery disk.....message is corrupt registry unable to proceed.

So, I have stored that HD away for professional recovery and arranged another HD.

In answer to your other Q re browser....I only received data from the New York Stock Exchange. No browsing. No email....just raw data.

thanks for your help
