Hi,
All of a sudden some programs start and go away, some others won't even
start.
As an example: I start "Gspot v2.70a", it starts and the progress bar starts
moving to the end; and then Gspot closes.
Some others programs will not even start, I've uninstalled them all and
reinstalled them. I click on the shortcut that the install-program put on
the desktop, nothing!
I click on the *.exe itself, nothing. I start it as an administrator....
same thing, nothing. They do NOT appear in Taskmanager.
Anybody able to solve this mistery? I would surely appreciate it.
Many thanks and greetings from
have one program like that; it opens and closes so fast I can see nothing;
it happens to be WTMKM.exe which is a Macro Key Manager for my graphics
tablet. Still trying to figure out why it won't stay.
However, I use Gspot v2.70a and it opens and stays open and works
Program Starts Then Disappears

Job Starts Quickly Disappears With Nothing Printed We need to run one of our large 16bit Visual Basic 3.0 applications on Vista Ultimate (32bit) while we rewrite the app in VB .Net. So far I have been able to install the VB3 app, and even the VB3 dev, on Vista and with a few small changes all runs well except for printing from the VB app. We use the VB PrintForm command to print a screen image from the app. All works well under Windows XP but under Vista nothing prints. Watching the Print Queue for the default printer, a job starts then quickly disappears from the queue with nothing printed.
The VB3 app can see the printer and the printer properties OK using Printer Setup (Common Dialog VBX). Printing works fine from Word 2003 and other 32 bit apps on the PC. I have tried several printers, all work OK under Vista except for the 16 bit apps. I have tried running the app as Admin and changing compatibilty properties. Does Vista support any printing from 16 bit apps?
Downloaded Program: Motions, Then Disappears I have Vista Home Premium and Office 2007 Ultimate. Recently, I've noticed that when I go to save a downloaded program, it goes through the motions, then disappears. Also, when I go to save a document in Office 2007, it also goes through the motions, then disappears. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I save a lot of documents in my profession, so I can't afford to not be able to.
A Program Starts Together With Windows, But Is Not In StartUp I installed on my brand new Windows Vista PC an unnecessary program (D-Link Monitor, but it is not important). The program is not needed and also it didn't install properly. Now when I start my PC, the program starts up displaying several messages to inform me that it cannot
work.
I had a look in StartUp - it is not there. I tried to uninstall it to no avail.
How/where else can start of this program be triggered? And how to make it not to start?
System Starts Registry Cleaner Program
Vista Home Premium 64-bit Since I started using a registry cleaner program (Advanced SystemCare Professional), I've noticed that every once in a while the system will go through two startups. The first startup begins normally, but then after the Welcome screen there's a pause of several seconds. Then a window pops up in the upper left corner of my screen that says "setting up personalized settings" followed by "msiexec /fuo {product ID} /qn". There's a second window that appears right after that but it disappears before I can read it. The system then goes through what appears to be a normal shutdown, and then immediately restarts a second time, and from that point on everything seems fine.
This doesn't happen at every startup. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with Advanced SystemCare, but I can't pinpoint the cause. The anomaly disappears if I disable all of ASC's automated functions. It's not a critical problem, but it has aroused my curiosity. I'd welcome any insights anyone can offer.
