Can you right click on it and go to properties? What is the target path it shows?

[hullmees]

no i cant, it disappears too quickly.

[rshaffer61]

OK can you be more exact which program is popping up as I see several in your quick start bar at the bottom of your pic.

[hullmees]

the one with the camera and printer as the icon.

[rshaffer61]

OK now we are moving.
First lets make sure it is not in your startup folder.
Go to the start button and then to all programs. In there look for your Startup folder in the list. Can you tell me what if anything is in there please.

[hullmees]

in the folder there are bluetooth, philips gogear vibe device manager and snapfish picturemover

[rshaffer61]

snapfish picturemover I believe this is your culprit right here.
Reopen the Startup folder and then right click on the above and then delete it.
Let me know if this stops the pop ups.

[hullmees]

it didnt. i uninstalled it altogether, cause i didnt need it but still pop ups continue.

[rshaffer61]

OK lets look at your MSconfig Startups then.

Lets see what you have in your startup

Please click on
Start and then to Run
Type in msconfig and press Enter
Now click on Startups
Make sure the window is open enough to see everything and then take a screenshot and attach it in your next post.
Post back with the results


To do a screenshot please have click on your Print Screen on your keyboard. It is normally the key above your number pad between the F12 key and the Scroll Lock key
Now go to Start and then to All Programs
Scroll to Accessories and then click on Paint
In the Empty White Area click and hold the CTRL key and then click the V
Go to the File option at the top and click on Save as
Save as file type JPEG and save it to your Desktop


Attach it to your next reply

When done restart computer and then:



Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop

• Please double-click TFC.exe to run it. (Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator).
• It will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin.
• Click the Start button to begin the process. Depending on how often you clean temp files, execution time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two. Let it run uninterrupted to completion.
• Once it's finished it should reboot your machine. If it does not, please manually reboot the machine yourself to ensure a complete clean.

Download Auslogics Defrag from the link in my signature below. Auslogics Defrag in my opinion is better because:

It does a more comprehensive job at Defragging
It will actually show you what it is doing
At the end of working it will show you how much speed you picked up
You can view a online log of the files that Auslogics defragged
Please do not run any other Auslogics programs other then this one as they may cause unwanted results.

[hullmees]

Auslogics needs to be purchased to fix the problems. it found quite many. but i do not have a credit card so i cant buy it.
and the problem is still the same.

do you think i should buy it. will it fix the problem? there is nothing wrong with speed with my pc. i'll buy it if it will fix this if not then at least now i dont need it.
