REMAH, the dvd reads, I have not tried writing yet. I tried the registry fix, there were no entries in right pane named "Filters". This is what my registry looks like.
Computer HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT HKEY_CURRENT_USER HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE HKEY_USERS HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG Phil YHVH(Supply Vowels)

REMAH, would you send an invitation to subscribe to this forum? To all, I make mistakes often, I'm sorry - it's not intentional. I'm ill, last week I found out my brother (4 years my senior), has a Glioblastoma (nasty brain tumor), I know I've confused people, and angered others. Again not my intention. I actually have 2 hands, but the left is useless, in College I typed in excess of 50/wpm, now it's about 4 - 6 words per minute. I'm just asking for your patience and understanding, as I'm sure I will screw up again and I don't want to be asked to leave - please.
I've been on and off this site for 8 years, dialup connection, when I connected at 28.8, I was thrilled!!! My next "job" is to try to fix this PC with a proper backup, then to a vista machine just given to us....

I went to dell and did the system tag scan, It recommended 49 updates, I've downloaded 37 to my desktop. Almost all were in .exe form, the other 3 were for sale.
I did drill down to the spot in registry recommended, and left and right clicked into the right pane, after not finding "filters" anywhere, what am I not doing correctly? Phil...... YJVH (supply vowels) ![]() ![]()

Hello all, I'm looking for a freeware app that will Lock away < 10 files and Folders, Looked for hours last night, and most had deficiencies. I just want this app to hide files from reinstalling Firefox. I deleted most visited folder accidentally, I assumed it would empty the folder, not delete it. My ISP is sure that is my problem with there toolbar malfunctioning?
Thanks! Phil

1. I have a copy of registry on USB 2 flash drive 2. Another on the desktop, run>regedit>export (one to flash Drive, another on desktop) the desktop copy - does the desktop registry need a special name?

Again, my thanks to all that have helped!!!
1. I made a copy of registry on a USB 2 flash drive - formatted to ex-fat 32. 2. Made system repair disc on a DVD - R (does anyone know of a page that would explain what media is used for what?) - Thanks! 3. When I did the Dell system tag scan, I was surprised to see System BIOS? Could a bios/c mos problem be the reason that the driver associated with the Optiarc DVD+-, changes back ad fourth? I have not flashed a bios in over 15 yeayrs! Again My Sincere Thanks! Oh - 4. How do I edit my own post, as I do make mistakes? TWIMC - I think my email troubles are behind me, at least for now. Keeping the basket away from flame! Phil
