Running Vista Home Premium on an HP Pavillion Slimline AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual
Core Processor 4200+
Every time I start or restart my computer, I have to reinstall certain
software or run certain programs to get things working properly. The
changes I have made do not stay in effect.
For example, every time I start or restart I have to re-install Flash Player
or it says it is not installed. Also I have used a program to "un-associate"
certain file types with one program and associate them with another, but
every time I start or restart the computer, they are "re-associated" with the
wrong programs so I have to re-run the "un-associate" program, then
re-install the program I want them to work with.
Why are the changes not kept when the computer shuts down? This does not
happen if the computer is hibernating or in sleep mode, only if it is
completely shut down as in a restart.
Does anyone know how to make the changes stay in effect? I am VERY
frustrated with having to reinstall this stuff everytime I need to restart
the computer.
Thank you in advance!
