Windows 7 Programs jumping and not working correctly

[kevjackson97]

I am having trouble with my programs not starting or running correctly. This started i think when i had to forcefully remove a Duit Engine and a nasty Toolbar (dont know if it messed with reg files). This problem only use to start when i played a movie for about ten mins and it would start going out of sync but when this happened it made all my other programs jittery. Now it does it all the time, would reall appreciate some help, thanks.

It sounds like you may be experiencing issues with your system after removing the Duit Engine and a toolbar, possibly leading to programs not starting or running correctly. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve these issues:

1. System Restore:​

• Consider using System Restore to revert your system back to a point before you removed the Duit Engine and toolbar. This can help restore any altered registry files and configurations.

  2. Check for Malware:​

• Perform a thorough scan of your system with an antivirus program to ensure that there are no lingering malware or remnants of the removed programs causing issues.

  3. Repair System Files:​

• Run a System File Checker scan to check for and repair any corrupt system files that might be causing program issues.

4. Update Drivers:​

• Update your system drivers, especially graphics and audio drivers, as outdated drivers can lead to compatibility issues with applications.

  5. Check Event Viewer:​

• Use the Event Viewer in Windows to look for specific error messages or warnings related to the programs not starting or running correctly. This can give you more insight into the problem.

  6. Clean Boot:​

• Perform a clean boot to start Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs, which can help identify if a third-party application is causing the issue.

  7. Reinstall Problematic Programs:​

• If certain programs are consistently causing issues, consider reinstalling them to ensure that all necessary files and dependencies are properly configured.

  8. Restore Registry:​

• If you suspect registry issues, you can consider restoring the registry from a backup or using tools like System Restore to fix any potential registry problems. By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the issues you are facing with programs not starting or running correctly on your system.
