Unable to get into Computer Management

[Capt.Jack Sparrow]

Hey,
Today i noticed a wierd issue
When i right click on Computer and click on Manage it get an error



I can find the ink file "Computer Management" under that location can open it from there

Any thoughts ??

What antivirus are you using and did you recently install any new software or updates? Have you tried system restore?

 

[Capt.Jack Sparrow]

I'm using ESET Secuity .. Only update i did was updated my Creative Media Source player .. Didn't try System Restore ... Only thing i can think of would be i used Windows 7 Manager to do some Tweaks not sure whether that caused it

 

[Frostmourne]

Tweaks? Use system restore and then uninstall Eset and use Microsoft Security Essentials instead to eliminate the antivirus as the problem.

Can you share more information about your computer, version of windows and other issues that may have led to this error? What are you trying to do regarding computer management?

Here is some basic information about your administrative tools: What are Administrative Tools?.

Cheers,

I think Microsoft Security Essentials not available for our country .. I'm trying system restore

 

[reghakr]

Yes,. Tara is right,. go to Control Panel >>> Administrative tools and Computer management is located there.

The Manage issue could be related to the context menu or the registry..

I can post as registry script and compare It yo yours

sfc /scannow may fix it from an elevated command prompt.

Otherwise, it's usually from an installed application, most notable being antivirus.

The tweaks may have had a hand in causing it.

Win 7 Ultimate is my OS I wanted to check the Event viewer to see whether any Error are logging for my MS Office 2010 becuase it freezes when i import a CSV file. As i told before it might that Windows 7 Manager or Yeterday i installed a Custom theme for Windows from SiCo for Win7 RC 7100 x86 by ~alkhan on deviantART while applying it asked to replaced some dll under System 32 like shell32.dll ExplorerFrame.dll gameux.dll wmploc.DLL

You've probably broken a key part of your system. If the System File Checker won't work its time for a clean reformat. I wouldn't trust any backed up images either. Never install any useless software or try these hacks - something will break.

You shouldn't go around modifying important system files

Try a restore

Yes, I thought it would. But it wasn't because of the replaced system theme files. I run them too and all is well here. It was something else you did like with the tweaker software.

Feel free to use the patch for those 3 system files if you'd like. They are running stable here on two machines for many months.

Otherwise, unless you have someone like me telling you how to do (because I know it to be stable), it is generally advisable never to mess with system files as others have said.

Now if you do though, you'll have to be very careful about the actual themes you install. They themselves could mess up stuff.

 

[reghakr]

That's good you made a backup.

Now you need to startup and choose Safe Mode with command prompt to replace them,. as they will be in use by windows.

 

[Capt.Jack Sparrow]

I think i can do with in regualr mode becuase i have taken ownership of whole window folder .. Used a patch registry key by shawn

 

[reghakr]

Did you rename the files in the system32 directory to something like this:

ExplorerFrame.dll

Or ExplorerFrame.bak

That;s the one that will give you the most problems

 

[torrentg]

Ya, the patch app automatically makes backups when patching and can replace from them at the click of a button. So that's another fail safe thing. Use it in safe mode if ever needed.

Before reinstall and after system file checker, you could also try a Repair Install (Upgrade over itself from the desktop) which will reinstall the OS while saving your programs, files and settings.

It will carry over settings but not damage to OS files.

Unlike Vista, Windows 7 requires no performance tweaks that I know of other than standard system settings.

NICE car grerrocker.

Is it a Duster or a Demon?
