Cannot start HP Pavilion laptop due to Winlogon.dll error cannot find SHLWAPI.dll

Hello,
We are getting a winlogon.dll error that it cannot find shlwapi.dll.
First off, we do not have recover CDs, we do not want to reboot with a complete recovery as we have data we need on this computer.
We cannot logon at all, it gives the error and then you have to say okay and it stays at a black screen. We have tried repairing from the start up menu, we have tried recovering a previous start up point, we can get to the f8 c prompt but the different commands offered from other website forum tech supports are not recognizable.
At this point, we are dead in the water. If there were some way to start the computer, get into our pictures, files, etc. to just download and save those then fine we can do a complete new installation.
Please help.
Thank you,
Kelly

Hi Kelly,
You need to download and install ImgBurn first.  Then download the Image ( ISO ) for Ubuntu.  When done, use ImgBurn to write the Ubuntu ISO to a blank CD and then just follow the rest of the guide.
Try the following links for these Two downloads.
ImgBurn.

  • My itunes will not start in Win XP. I get an error that says MSVCR80.dll can't be found. I am scared if I just reinstall iTunes that I will lose all my music and apps that are in the old itunes. What can I do.

    My iTunes will not start in Win XP. I am getting an error that says MSVCR80.dll can't be found. I am concerned that if I just do a reinstall
    of  iTunes it will overwrite or delete all the music and apps I have on the current app that won't start. When I boot the PC I get the following:
    APSDaemon.exe - unable to locate. MSVCR80.dll not found. Reinstalling application may fix this problem. How can I get iTunes started without losing
    all my music and apps? Thanks

    It won't unless a problem occurs. Back them up, uninstall iTunes and all related components, and reinstall them.

  • Error recovery server, message: Service 'Microsoft Exchange Service Host (MSExchangeServiceHost)' cannot be started due to the following error: Cannot start service MSExchangeServiceHost on computer

    I have issue with second exchange server while trying to restore recovery mode. If we do ADIEDIT as per your previous article will that going to cause issue to the existing Exchange Server ?

    Hi Najeeb,
    I'm not sure if doing some actions via ADSI Edit can affect the existing Exchange server.
    I recommend you follow the steps below for troubleshooting.
    1. Please use the get-service msexch* | set-service -startuptype automatic cmdlet to set the service state to automatic for all the Exchange services.
    2. Start the Microsoft Exchange Service Host service and other required services.
    What's more, I would like to verify if you install Forefront Protection for Exchange Server, if yes, please disable it and check the result.
    Hope my clarification is helpful.
    If there are any problems, please feel free to let me know.

  • HP Pavilion Laptop: Unable to open files, error message and "Recovery" drive appeared

    My fairly new HP Pavilion AR5B1425 laptop suddenly displays a big red x and an error message "documents.library-ms (or whatever file I'm trying to access) is no longer working" and is displaying a "recovery" drive listed as "D."  My kids were using my computer, and hubby thinks they inadvertently reset my hard drive or something.  Any ideas?

  • Cannot start my mac, tried resetting pram and smu, I cannot even boot up from SL disc anymore. any other suggestions

    Firstly apologies for any spelling or typos but I'm typing from my iPod touch!
    My initial problem was that my mac kept crashing soon after start up on 10.6.7. After installing the is back to 10.6 it seemed to be work ok but not great. After updating to 10.6.7 the problem came back so once again I reverted back to 10.6. Then 10.6.8 was released not long ago so I gave it a try... Same issue.
    Now I want to revert back to 10.6 but it's not letting get past the grey screen with the apple logo with the spinning thing underneath. I have tried resettin smu and pram but I get nowhere. Booting from my snow leopard disk to revert no longer works. So where do I go from here???
    Please help somebody.
    Thanks,
    Carl

    So as it stands my iMac has the Snow Leopard disc inside as the startup disc. As a result it is now not allowing me to boot up in safe mode and perform smu or pram resets. It goes straight to the grey screen with the Apple logo with the spinning thing underneath.
    It just keeps spinning and spinning i thought i'd persevere and leave it and see what happens. TWICE i've left it hanging for 2 hours (while i popped out) and came back with the same grey screen.
    This is now worrying me because as a worse case scenario i cannot even remove all my data before trashing it (or throwing it out of the window which seems like the more attractive option right now).
    If anybody out there has any more suggestions please please put a post on here.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Carl.
    PS. Why wouldn't it even attempt to start for the snow leopard disc? I can understand that it can't boot from the system but surely booting up from the DVD should always work???

  • Cannot update to 10.5 due to the following error

    ok i start to install itunes and everything goes good until this message pops up. "The installer has insufficient priveleges to access this directory: C/Program Files/Common Files/Apple/CoreFP. The installation cannot continue. Log on as an administrator or contace your system administrator". the problem with this is that i have always been the administrator and have tried to manually access CoreFP and get access denied. I have been without itunes for about a week now. If someone has ideas please let me know

    If you're downloading them over the campus network, that might be the problem. There have been reports of corrupted downloads do to the network's firewall settings. I suspect you'll be successful if you go to the town's library or computer center and download the files from there.

  • While starting up portal server gateway I get an error "cannot read from rp.keystore, unable to read the PKCS key".

    The OS is solaris 8 and portal server 3. The first installation went through properly and we had installed many other applications also along with portal server. Then we had to ship the machine to some other city and restarted with same IP address, host address and domain, and also made a LAN without hooking onto the main network. From then on we are facing this problem. Even tried reinstallation a couple of times, after uninstall and deleting/renaming rp.keystore. The main problem looks like gateway not being able to read rp.keystore. The password required for reading it is the admin password which works fine the admin console.By invoking certstore also I am getting the same error.

    There is a couple of things I can think of here, one is the permission, you need to install the gateway as root , make sure the gateway and relevant files are installed as root and have the right access permissions.
    There should be file called .rppass and this contains the password and this should match the same password that you have used for the admin console.
    I would recommend you to use 3.0sp3a instead of 3.0 for better performance and scalability.

  • Cannot execute 70SP04 MUP on MSA. Keeps giving error cannot open folder

    Dear Mobile Heroes,
    I cannot execute an (70SP04) MUP on MSA. When the MUP runs, it keeps failing saying that it cannot write to location c:\program files\sap\mobile\app.net\Layout......
    In the Client Upgrade log, "the error occurred in module ClientUpgrade.shared.ccompressor
    <can't open for writing>
    I have checked this folder, and granted full read/write/creation/deletion premissions to all users and cascaded these properties to all subordinate folders - no change. Same error. I even tried granting full rights to all folders inc and below C:\program files\sap\mobile       Still same error - HELP?!
    Richard

    Hello RIchard,
    In case you're upgrading to 70sp04 and executing an MUP for that matter, I'd like to know if
    you've already run the Hotfix.mup that comes bundled with 70sp04(Please see the 70sp04 Upgrade guide).
    In case you've already done so, can you try removing the ReadOnly flag of the folder -
    c:\program files\sap\mobile\app.net\MSA\Layout and then try running the MUP again.
    Thanks,
    Rohit

  • After Effects cc not starting due to optix.1.dll error or not designed for Windows

    Hi support team,
                           I cannot open after effects cc due to a problem with a optix.1.dll error . Attached is a sreen shot. I suspect is the nvidia video card that has problems.
    Anyone one has the same problems? Any solutions for this? Thank you.
    Regards,
    Elias Lo

    Hi Todd,
               Thanks for your reply. I managed to solve it by reinstalling the After Effects CC. This error occurred when I haven't updated my laptop , especially the video card updates. Therefore , optix.1.dll is only 0kb as a file , in the support file for AE cc.
                  I hate the GeForce experience by Nvidia. One of its updates caused Windows to prevent starting. I have to reinstall Windows and reinstall Adobe Creative Cloud, hence the issue. Thanks Todd , will always be an Adobe supporter.

  • Driver install with PXI 8360 Error " This device cannot start - Code 10"

    While trying to instal PXI-6541 in PXI-1036 chassi with PXI 8360 controller[express-8360 on laptop side] , getting the error message "This device cannot start [Code 10]" Laptop is Lenovo T60 with latest BIOS
    Thanks
    Manu 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello Manu,
    I'm sorry to hear that you are having so many issues with getting your Expresscard 8360 working on your Lenovo. I recommend that we first look into Device Manager in more details. You mentioned that there were question marks (?) on certain devices. This usually means that there are devices on your PC that do not have any associated hardware drivers. For the Expresscard 8360, the drivers should be native to the Windows system, so I am unsure if those "?" do belong to this portion of the system. We can test this out by removing the expresscard 8360 and see if the "?" are still present. These "?" can be from the internals of the PC or modules that you've attached. If you've restored your operating system recently, it could be from the peripherals of your computer in which case you will need to find and install the chipset drivers. This can also be from the modules that you in your chassis, assuming that you haven't installed the necessary drivers for them, in which case you can find them on the Driver CD you have.
    The exclamation mark (!) in Device Manager usually signifies a problem with getting the hardware started/operational. From your earlier posts I believe that the "!" is related to the Error Code 10 that you are receiving. Assuming that the correct power sequence was performed, chassis then PC, this is representative of a BIOS compatibility issue. Essentially this is occuring because the BIOS of the motherboard is not correctly allocating the necessary resources to all the devices as it is supposed to. Since you already have the latest BIOS, I would recommend that you try using the MXI Express Compatibility Software, here ni.com/beta. This is something that National Instruments created in order to correct for the incorrect resource allocation of the PC. It is not a beta program, it is only on the site so that we can manage it more easily. I have seen Lenovo T60 laptops work with this software installed.
    Let me know if this helps
    Thanks

  • Forms 11gR2 installed on linux (centos 6.3) cannot start

    hello ervery one,
    I installed weblogic 10.3.5 and jdk first ,and then installed forms11gR2 on my linux virtual machine.
    I can not start up my forms builder .
    it report an error: cannot find libjvm.so :cannot open shared object file ,no such file or directory.
    the weblogic server can start normally.
    what may be the reason and how can i fix it ?
    lmw.

    CentOS is not a supported operating system for 11g Forms/Reports - thus if you run into a brickwall on this, don't be surprised :)
    Despite it not being supported, I have ran Forms Builder in an unsupported linux environment before. You likely just need to setup missing environment variables to get it to run, make sure the environment variables listed below are set. I'd probably do this in a little shell script to launch forms builder. However just a fair warning, the user interface isnt pretty when you run it on UNIX-based systems.

    A Code 10 error is generated in Device Manager in one of the following situations:
    - Device Manager can't start the device.
    - One of the drivers that the device needs does not start.
    - Device Manager has insufficient information to recognize the error that is bubbled up by the device driver.
