"disconfiguration"? LOL ...I like that one...think I'll start using it. :D

But seriously, it sounds like the network profile is corrupt. Have you tried deleting the profile and then letting the system recreate a new one? It should save the key correctly then.
Sounds a good idea. How can I backup the configuration and delete after ?

Another idea for booting a thumb drive for surfing is Puppy Linux

I made a bootable USB and not only does it boot but you can set it to save Linux config changes on shutdown.  Also it is very easy to get the WiFi working.  There is a gizmo in the system tray for it.  If you google you should get a step by step how to initialize the WiFi in Puppy Linux.  If you set it to save config info to the stick you only have to do it once.  I did it some time ago but it must have been very easy since I don't have any memory of it being annoying.  :)

Puppy is very small and can run well even on PCs and Laptops that have been around awhile.

It's a good idea MilesAhead.

And also to prepare a usb stick for antivirus fighting.

well this was because of the fallen links with photobucket.
I think is possible substitute those links knowing the names of the images. In the new server the images must have the same name. So the path is the variable and this may be change editing the code of each post or page....

Unless may be possible a tool to edit all the pages at the same time, but I doubt, specially using blogs like wordpress.com or blogspot.com that have security measures everywhere. I think I have to edit the post previously, not enough to be logged.

I use RegScanner by NirSoft and find it easy to use.

Aha, refining my search found me RegAlyzer, and, great for you, it supports Spanish UI language!

With the proper regular expression you van find several terms in one search. (look for round braces for grouping, and the vertical pipe symbol). Or use a logical expression with AND/OR.
DC is better than googlind !!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
I prefer english to practice.

I found this too : http://registry-finder.com/ . I am not sure admit multiple searchs at the same time.

It's not the first time i am looking for these tools and i trying to recover my "memory".

I remember a program that lets you put part of the key and you go to the key...
a path finder or something i remember.

Or even have favorites (or favourites ?) to go faster.

In 2011 i have a contact with regalyzer, but seems I don't install that time...

I will comment !

I do exactly 12 post in different forums. More restricted than here. I want to know if someone knows the interface of the three points....

https://forums.stardock.com/484677

I was assuming stardock was the maker of the virtual desktop program. There is no answer in the present moment.

In the microsoft spanish forum they are almost sure that is the program 7stacks.

https://answers.micr...06c?tm=1502742160345

No more useful answers until the moment. Nobody knows that interface.

I search the windows registry for the key Stardock, also in folders. delete everything i found and now i have no problem.
But I think Ath is right and is not sure the correlation.

I think he's going to wait until he's sure it's the solution before sharing it.
Wraith808 please see if my problem may serve you by proximity

1. a process not running everytime detectable in the startup options.

2. a control installed without notice for a bad uninstall.

^ I dont understand -- except that you think it is solved.
Are you going to tell us the solution?
Yessssss !!!!!!. With all my faults.

1. If I were using regscanner instead of regedit I will arrive easier to the target without losing a lot of hours and my nerves. This is a "good auto warning" to my next time....

2. It's all completely my fault.

As you can see I give some residents after proof that the other were not causing the "effect three points".

I also give a selected list of installed applications. Removing all that ones that don't cause the "effect three points".

sorry , i have to come out. I will come back to the rest of the explanation.....16.08.2017.13.37 i am here again.

But I don't give the list of the application in autorun !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a suspicious program that I will give you the name later anyway (now waiting for interaction in its forum...) . I download a trial of that program and installed in one of my virtual machines....

And "Voilá" . I observ that i have the process in the autorun or startup programs, but when the controls of that programs are charged the process dissappear..... But you have in certain way the feel that the program is running always....

Well...

The above part may be the simpler until now. I think wraith808 told us he had or has a similar problem with a ghost process.

But perhaps wraith808 may have also my problem hypothesis.

Some time ago i had a virus. As you may know "contro" (just me) is unable to restore an image. The maxima is "save the system without reinstalling, repairing or restoring". With this stupidity thing in mind all is possible. The only time I have restored an image is when i change the system disk in the ACER laptop....

At the time of the virus I solved as well as i can. I lose the preview in some files and during a time the sfc /scannow fails or not complete.

At the present time I have lost the preview option of files like txt, doc, pdf, etc. , except movies and images in windows explorer.

What I am trying to explain is my hipothesis. My hipothesis is :

I uninstall the conflictive program bad and some control were changed without advice. I think so just because i search in an exhaustive task any string relating to programs to personalyze the pc (like virtual desktops managers).

I found certain strings and delete. And the ghost process ceased....

Of course I will tell my theory better if the forum of the program answer me what "i wish to hear". If not I wll have to convince myself i have done the correct. But even is possible that a control of a program was interacting with "other things".

Nevertheless the problem is until now resolved. Until now I am supposing just because a corruption in my system and interacting with a reputated and reknown trial program that was uninstalled with some problem.

That to my surprise there exists processes that launch an interface but are not always running until the moment you make a move. I think exists programs to control in any moment when appear a process. In DC i remember utilities to control this. And even controls that don't seems have a correspondent in the autorun !!!!!!!!!!!!!. we are far from Halloween uh u h uh uh !!!!!!!!!!

If the forum answer i will put the program. if not I will put the program.

 

Best regards.

I think this is solved.
I will explain why and probably will be a strange and ghost situation.

I am wating now for the answer in one of the forums I made this post. In the very one I think have the key to give. But don't give.... Just because I think is its program....

I have made this question in about 10 forums.

The unique forum with a splendid participation has been DC. Of course this problem has to be solved in the forum if I had the adequate way to expose the matter. So I am afraid I will receive a good warning about this.
But I prefer receive the warning that don't tell you my answer.

I am taking very seriously english learning.
so, some months ago, I am trying to read in english.
My first experience :

Lolita by Nubokov ( I dislike)
The second : The picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde ( I dislike)
The road by Cormac McCarthy ( a terrible experience for me , but i likes. Only I need to read in spanish first because of the trama, then in english to try to understand better)
The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. I am reading now. If I don't feel comfortable in english firs i read in spanish. Seems a very good book.

P.d. I hope learn better english and be able to express adequately ....

I have two points now !
I try to organize my icons dragging to the "main desktop". The problem is that I can't determine the shortcut to change desktop. So I dedicate to make with the mouse and lef button clicked fast movements and "chaotic movements" until I reach other desktop. Then I tried to reproduce the same process with difficulty to recover the icons in the first desktop. I got the most and now have two points. I think in the second desktop is nothing.
The strange thing for me is not get navigate between the desktops with ease. I have tried a lot of combinations.
I remember exists applications to assing shortcuts or see what are assigned. And this may be an opportunity to detect the ghost program.

Do you know a good one ?

Meanwhile I continue searching in the windows registry for strings like "dexpot" and others.
 :-*

Edited 15.08.2017.20.01 . One point now !.
I try to repeat the game dragging icons but I only get the three points again.
In one of these desktops I have only two icons. So I deleted after making a security copy and now I only have one point. --

Edited 15.08.2017.21.35. Searching the windows registry for rests or traces :
dexpot --- no traces found
virtuawin --- no traces found
sysinternals desktops --- no traces found


I have begún to post in personalyze specialized forums with the hope somebody knows the interface of the three points..

This is a bit more aggressive than I think is warranted in this particular audience.  We know that Contro is not a native English speaker, so is struggling through this.  If you can't work through this with him, it seems that a better approach for the community might be for you to ignore his threads?
Well, I've thought about both issues, and I still think it is in the right place and audience, as he's still pulling in new/other/related and unrelated info that further troubles the water (proof enough after your post...) and gives no or confusing answers to any questions asked. I won't ignore threads started by Contro as I think he needs (computer-)help, lots of it.



wraith808 please don't punish me.
Contro, wraith808 was trying to soften my reaction to your issue, and not pointing at you in any way.
We all know you can use all the help we have to offer, please help us helping you by a) not flooding your threads with small bits of non-related info, b) give complete details about the issue at hand, and c) give straight and simple answers on any question asked (like tomos requested)

Example:
I began this pc with only one monitor. And install several virtual desktop utilities like Virtual Dimension and others.
Knowing this from the original post would have been very helpful in tracking down the cause. There is a fair chance that one of those VD tools has installed or configured something in your system that is causing all this
From that time I observed the problem but give not importance because simple I was not using.
This is an indication that you need a lot of help in troubleshooting (anything), as the 'problem' has existed for quite a long time, and now you are making all this fuss about it? Why? Why now?

Yes, I still will offer help if and when I can, but I'll detach myself from this thread starting now
Understood.
I'll try my very best.

In Process Explorer you have a symbol on top that looks like what you see when you look through the visor of a rifle...the (infamous) cross-hair.

You can drag this symbol over the window that you have a problem with and when you release the mouse button, the process behind this window is selected in Process Explorer. That should make the "hunt" much easier.

I try this putting the process explorer window in the nearest position, but when I am going to put over the points dissapeared. It's simply stressing, but I will keep trying and training.

Best Regards

P.D. training I get the points but the results in process explorer is windows explorer. Just the same as if I put the pointer circle of PE in the middle of the desktop.

 :-[

I adjunt a selection of my installed programs. The more to be suspicious anyway.

I will revise all the program of multiple desktops I installed before have multiple monitors. And try to find in the windows registry. Or any rest in any folder.

The only exception i remember was a grid control program from DC.

I will test all these links :

wraith808 please don't punish me.

Trying to analyze the graphical cards option relating to virtual desktops.

But I am sure that the conflictive program is prior to that. I began this pc with only one monitor. And install several virtual desktop utilities like Virtual Dimension and others. From that time I observed the problem but give not importance because simple I was not using.

Now I have several options :
1. Find the ghost process.

2. Forget the icons in one of the ghost desktops and create again using the desktop folder.

3. Continue finding alternatives to desktops or virtual dimension trying to locate the ghost process and why appear. With a name i can search in the registry.

The new graphic cards AMD Radeon R7240 i don't remember any utility for virtual desktop I applied.
The intel graphic card integrated in the mothermoard I don't remember in the asus utilities one for controlling virtual desktops.
