I was encountering Error 1001 while un installation of an application from my Windows 7.
not my error snapshot.but it was same.
I tried to search for solving this problem but wasn't able to find a easy and satisfying answer.
But a friend of mine resolved this error.
By formatting the partitioned but un-formatted drives of my windows.
Actually recently did partitioning of my local drives and installed a fresh version of windows but didn't formatted and used the local drives. So they were contributing somehow in error.
So I formatted these drives and then un installed the application.It was successfully installed.
I shared this with all of you because may be it help you. And somebody help me in understanding the real cause and solution of this problem.
If I am to understand you correctly, you partitioned one of your drives, installed a fresh OS, attempted an uninstall, failed, and resolved the issue by formatting.
Chances are that the application you were attempting to uninstall was somehow involved with the area you partitioned. Possibly it was from attempting to read from files that were suddenly non-existent since that portion of your hard drive was then mapped as a separate disk. Additionally, it could that your lack of formatting left important configuration files, which were seen by your application, but contained data relating to your old operating system.
If you left the old operating system in tact, it may be that you essentially "confused" the application with regards to which operating system files to interact with.

When I boot from a USB and "Try Ubuntu", I cannot increase the size of Partition 6 to us the Free Space. I assume the Free Space needs to be to the right of Partition 6 but, not sure. I have also tried gparted to no avail. How do I accomplish this without having to re-install Ubuntu?
NOTE: The laptop was once a Windows 10 unit that I re-partitioned and installed Ubuntu 22.04. I foolishly deleted the Windows partition from Ubuntu believing I could re-allocate the free space and maybe this has caused my problem.
I have booted from a USB and ran disk utilities in an effort to use my free space. I have read numerous posts on this topic from various sources but, I have not been able to duplicate those performances or suggestions.

A friend of mine factory reset her computer on Windows 10, and lost an important document, so I'm wondering if there is a way for her to get it back, any help is useful.
I realize that a factory reset sets the computer back to it's original state of when it was first purchased, but I'm just curious if there are any free or cheap options available, besides going to a recover specialist.
Any advice would be nice - thanks!
Download the free version of Piriform Recuva. It is something I have used before for basic file recovery, and I don't know of a simpler GUI tool for Windows. Simply follow the instructions of this tutorial, or search for a simple video tutorial on YouTube if that is insufficient.
To maximize your chances of recovery reduce the amount of writes to the drive- setting it to read-only for example. Avoiding doing anything else while you attempt to recover the files is critical, newer files may silently destroy whatever is left of the older data. If at all possible you should attempt to boot from a drive or disk that doesn't contain the erased data, but if that is not possible/not something you know how to do then you may still be able to recover the data by booting the computer normally.

How do I access an external hard drive through bash-on-Ubuntu-on-windows. It doesn't seem to appear in either /media, /mnt or /dev, which seem the common places that people say to look for them in Ubuntu systems.
Note: the hard drive is HFS+ formatted: I use Paragon's HFS+ for windows and have already done an apt-get install hfsprogs which I think should allow the Linux part to read the HFS+ format. I have also tried with normal USB sticks, no of which seemed to appear anywhere.
The drive does appear in /cygdrive in cygwin, but when I navigate to cygdrive in bash it doesn't appear. Clearly it is not properly mounted there, but is some form of symbolical link that bash cannot see.
I'm not really sure if this is a Linux or a Windows issue, but there doesn't seem to be anything from Microsoft about it, though I realise it is early days for them.
The Ubuntu on Windows on the current build (Build 14393, a.k.a. anniversary update) doesn't support accessing external drive. This feature is on their backlog for future consideration.

Edit: Mounting removable drives are supported since Build 16176. [1][2]

I am looking for a way to remotely install a program to other computer units running Windows on the fly ,without the need of running the installer steps on each computer (next,next,finish...) all over again , .exe installers don't usually have an easy way to do this without using the GUI installer.
a solution that i came up with , running the installer on a single pc
and try to trace each file the installer adds (location,file names,registry files) using FileSystemWatcher then copy these files and send them to the desired hosts that need the program installed with the location of each file will this work ? is there any easier implementation
the problem with FileSystemWatcher that although it detectes which files have been added,edited or deleted its not capable to tell which process did the change ,Why would i need to know ?,other programs depends alot on files and will keep editing them so i need to isolate the installer process to easily study how its functioning and what files are added..
the only way that i know to overcome this problem is developing a file system filter driver...
please give me your opinion or some recommendations on which is the best way to do this ,sorry for my bad english .
Almost every modern installer has some way to perform a silent install. You may need to do some digging to find the answers, or ask the publisher. Try running the installer with /? as a command line switch and see what it tells you.

My windows server crashes every few days with this error:
A critical system process, C:\Windows\system32\lsass.exe, failed with
status code 255. The machine must now be restarted.
the forums in MSDN are not very clear regarding how to handle this issue.
I run always a administrator, through RDP.
any help will be much appreciated.
Here's what I'd tried if I were you, in that order:
Go to device manager and select your NIC card. Select properties, then power management. De-select "allow computer to turn off this device to save power". Reboot and try to reproduce.
Open this page, check your OS version, check your event log for the event “Source: LsaSrv Event ID: 5000”, if everything matches, install the supplied hotfix. Reboot and try to reproduce.
Same with this hotfix — check OS version, check your event log, apply the hotfix if it fits.
Set DefaultEncryptionType registry value as specified here. However please keep in mind that this one is risky, esp. if the server is a DC. Make sure you have a fresh backup, and physical access to the server.
