Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Help needed to remove setupsnk from memory stick

    Thank you dear unknown person in advance for helping me. After a failed attempted at setting up a wireless network, my 2 Gb USB stick now has the files:
    setupsnk.exe
    autorun.inf
    and a folder called: SMRTNTKY

    They take up almost all the memory and cannot be deleted by any method I know as they are write protected and cannot be modified.

    Can you help me remove these?

    Regards

    Sinister

    Bit of a download but is a useful tool when things go wrong.No doubt there are many other ways to fix it.

    download the cd image and burn it as a bootable disk .

    This is free , works , and will burn the cd image for you

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    It's a live cd , so when you boot it , it will bring up an operating system without touching your hard disk.


    Boot the PC with the cd in the drive.
    Depending how the pc is setup etc it may :
    start to boot from the cd
    or you have to press F12 or something to bring up a boot choices menu
    or you have to go into the BIOS and change the boot order.

    Post up when you get that far

    Download * install Unlocker v1.87 & see if you can delete them.
