I've recently found that I cannot open files with .jpg extensions by clicking on the file in Windows Explorer to open with the Photos app. I can open the files if I use the Open With option and select a different program such as Photoshop.
I had a virus and was forced to do a system restore to 5/august/2015 and when I tried to open .jpg file and "Invalid value for registry" happened I tried some fixes in PowerShell and Photos app and Store app weren't invisible anymore but had this exclamation mark...
For some reason, I cannot import this registry script I made. Syntax seems to be correct. I'm thinking it's most likely an invalid key somewhere. Look at the attachment, what is causing this error: "The specified file is not a registry script."
Where the start menu doesn't open when its clicked on. I have seen other posts with this issue where its an issue with personalization settings under ms-settings. I am unable to open Ms-settings because I receive the error "Invalid value for registry". I tried opening it from the notifications button but that doesn't launch at all. I am trying to avoid reinstalling the system.
I have tried dism /online /cleanup-image: /restorehealth sfc /scannow Ran multiple different virus scanners.
This computer is running Build 10240 AMD Phenom II 1045T Processor 8Gb of Ram
Until two days ago all was fine but since earlier today, whenever I go to "pictures", select a folder and then click to open a file, I get the following error message..
J:DCIM100CANONIMG_7104.JPG Invalid value for registry"
I get the same message regardless of whether it's a new photo I've just uploaded or photos that have been on my PC for a long time.
I have a Toshiba Satellite C-50A-157 with an Intel Core i3 processor
Apparently it is my turn: Photos app no longer launches (clicking on the icon does nothing; no error report in Event Log). Trying to double-click image files associated with Photos results in "Invalid Value for Registry" message box. No explanation as to for what value is "invalid" and why it is "invalid".
It appears that the damage is user-account-specific, meaning that Photos typically continue to work fine under different (undamaged) user accounts. So, the only known solution appears to be to create a new user account and set it up from scratch.
Considering that setting up a new account requires quite an effort, this is not a real solution but more of a last resort "loser's way out" kind of measure. Hence the question: any additional information/research about this error? What specific "registry value" is responsible for this problem? I see quite a few reports about this error on the Net, but most of them seem to settle with creating a new account.
I have various files throughout my hard drive which error "Invalid MS-DOS Function" if I try and move or delete them however they "work" normally if I try and use them.
I ran a check disk which returned no errors.
I am feeling this may be a format job however I'd like to avoid that if possible ..
I am running Windows 10. I had a USB stick in the computer. After an update-restart, I ejected the USB drive, and now my computer is slow after idling and there was a nagging message that asserts itself. First it was something about what do you want me with removable drive E.
I finally clicked on that message, now i get the message "E: the directory name is invalid" Now that pops up before I do any clicking on anything.
I'm not sure if I inadvertantly indexed the E drive, or if its just that the E drive must be there.
I just did a fresh install of Windows 7 and activated the key, then i installed all of the latest updates. I then downloaded the media creation tool x64 to install windows 10 and when I get to the key activation my key doesn't work.
I am moving my documents, videos, etc. folders to another internal HD. I have two issues:
1. When I right-click on the folder, properties, location, and try to change back to default, it gives me a "access is denied error message". 2. When I try to change the folder to a new folder on the HD, it tells me that "the specified path is invalid".
Recently I upgraded my work computer to windows 10 pro. Just found if I want to connect to a remote computer on a port other than 3389, it doesn't let le me put : just like I can do in previous version "server name/IP address: port number" comes up with error saying "remote computer name is invalid" if I go ahead and click connect shows "The computer name is blank or it contains invalid characters. Try typing it again. Invalid characters include spaces, tabs, ;:<>*+=|?," "
I have had windows 10 on my pc now for a month or so, and decided to set up a windows account.. but I didn't read the example and I used an in valid email domain. Instead of using one of the 3 domains... @Hotmail.com,@outlook.com or @live.com.. I used @windows.com...?? therefore I couldn't get the verifying email with the 7 digit access code.....
So now when I turn my pc on the window screen comes up with the user ######@windows.com and ask me for the password.....which doesn't exist because the email address wasn't verified....and now I'm locked out of my pc.....I got online with windows tech and they said I need to reinstall windows 10....
I have tried using a media creation tool they suggested but my pc wont boot up from cd drive (it is set to boot from this first)...cd runs but doesn't install....I don't get screen asking me to press any key to boot from cd drive.......and I have played with setting in my bios......
I keep getting this message randomly after upgrading to Windows 10. It pops up once maybe every 15 minutes and interrupts anything that I'm doing. I do not know how to recreate it, but it consistently pops up.
The directories that it pops up the message for are L, M, and O.
Yesterday my friend installed windows 10, but encounters an issue when logging in. He types in his password, but it says its invalid, he then clicks next, but then the screen goes black then reboots.
He has an HP Pavilion desktop.
Is there any way to revert back to windows 7, which he was previously on?
Bought and tried two 64 gig flash drives to create image backup. First told they were not NTFS format. Did that. Now both come up as an invalid backup location, although image should take only 48 gig. Have seen other queries with same problem but no answers. Do not want to use laptop more until I have a system recovery method.
Every time i want to delete a file or folder off my desktop i get the message : Invalid MS-DOS Function. I am therefore unable to delete anything off my desktop. Is there a fix for this?
everything was working fine until today. Now, every download I attempt on Microsoft Edge comes up with the message "the signature of this program is corrupt or invalid".
I haven't made any changes to my PC, or installed any new software, and I cannot find any solutions to this.
New PC build on MSI Gaming 5 motherboard. Put in an OEM System Builder Windows 8.1 Pro disc and clicked upgrade, not install. Now the machine won't install Windows and if I re-enter setup, it tells me invalid product key. Any way to reverse this or how can I get the OS installed?
