I downloaded the Rufus utility to create a bootable USB. However, when I try to run it, it just pops up a message box "One or more arguments are invalid" and doesn't start. I tried the version 3.5 and 3.6 and for download used MS Edge and Firefox - all without success.
I am running Windows 10.
I couldn't find anything related on the Internet. Any suggestions what to do?
Unplug any USB devices. It worked for me after I unplugged a USB Flash Drive. Weird!

I recently dual booted my Acer aspire E15 laptop with Ubuntu. The Ubuntu was working fine but when I opened the windows from grub menu, wireless networks like wifi wasn't detected and any exe files are not opening rather a bad image error is popping up which reads:
“Example.exe – Bad Image”
“C:\Windows\AppPatch\example.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0xc000012f”
It comes up when I open any kind of exe files including even task manager.
I even deleted Ubuntu and included the partition created by Ubuntu into C drive. I guess I have made a huge mess of the PC by changing the settings. I tried regedit method as well but the value in AppInit_DLLs was null by default. I even tried resetting the pc but after 11% it is saying can't proceed,undoing the changes. Somebody please help, I have watched plethora of YouTube videos on this topic but to no avail. I did these changes in my bios https://askubuntu.com/questions/771455/dual-boot-ubuntu-with-windows-on-acer-aspire as well given by Umar having 5 upvotes during dual booting. How can I undo everything just like my new computer with windows 10 or fix this problem.
Try contacting Microsoft Remote Assistance Support, they will format your PC via remote assistance. It worked for me.
Keyboard and mouse works in bios, but when in win7 installation screen, they are failed?
After google, mostly the problem is win7 is lack of the USB 3.0 drivers, and they just tell us to use USB2.0 port, or even use PS/2 port.
Then how can we deal with only with USB3.0 or their suggestions is not suitable for us?
update 2
stuck in firstly settiing windows?

If you meet above problem, this link may help you and save time.
I have try to use USB2.0, but most of BIOS settings is not found in my computer. After lots of retry, I found this video that tell us how create a Windows 7* installation image to include USB 3.0 drivers.
this tools required:
Win7 ISO
windows-usb-dvd-download-tool to install ISO into your USB
Windows-7-USB-3-0-Creator-Utility to install USB 3.0 drivers
If link is failed, try to search tools'name.
update 2
After above actions, my compute is stuck in setting compute(set name).
==> I solves it by set BIOS-USB_SETUP's USB Virtual KBC Support Enabled, the refer link is miss.
Finally Done...
my external monitor stopped working today after restart. I found the computer on during the night. Running win 10 64b on Lenovo U430p.
The monitor worked fine the whole time. I can see windows logo while booting, but then it says no signal. When I uninstalled the video driver it worked (login screen, desktop, res 800*600), until windows installed driver over it. I tried getting newest driver from both Lenovo and Intel, but with no results.
Did anyone experience this issue as well? I read about people having this with new computer but not to happen from the blue and ususally at least disabling the video adapter helped.
Thanks!
Haven't found real solution and it seems to be a problem of Intel graphic cards.
However reverting to most basic driver windows can offer did the trick
Uninstall driver
Rollback driver
Using wushowhide.diagcab utility (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3073930) disable updates for all video card drivers
Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask, I'm new to arduino and I searched for my question here on ST and found similar but outdated queries that didn't help me so I might as well help others who might be having the same problem.
The very first time I connected arduino to my W7 laptop, it worked like a charm, installed new device drivers successfully, uploaded my sketch (which still continues to run every time its powered). I checked device manager and it showed the arduino under COM/LPT ports.
Then, after disconnecting the arduino and reconnecting, it no longer shows a COM/LPT section and instead shows an unknown device under USB. Every time I've tried uninstalling driver and reconnecting, it keeps giving me a driver installation failed error.
Googling for the issue told me to "update drivers" manually using the .inf provided with the Arduino installation through device manager, but when I tried that, it says the drivers aren't compatible with Windows x64.
Another tip from an arduino forum user told me to copy the arduino.inf into C:/Windows/inf, but that didn't solve the problem either
Any ideas?
I have been able to build PJSUA. The softphone runs perfectly on Windows XP, but on Windows 7 but it gives me the following error
It seems to be an issue with PJSUA on Windows 7. Has anyone been able to resolve this?
If you look into the code you will see that PJSUA is looking for a default device that has both input and output (mic and speakers) - such as headset. Just output or just input will not work...So if you plug in a headset you may eliminate your error. It works great on Win7.
The audio part of PJSIP is quite complicated IMO. Although I have it working now I am myself researching how to implement giving user a choice. That is, the user will have a choice of using headset or mic/speakers built-in combo.
Seems it is incompatible with windows7, and so is Sipek, because of some library which is no longer present in Windows7 (libwavemixer, ...).
I went on to use the Java-based Peers SIP Phone.
