Please help for settings. . . . .

Hello,

There is some thing happened with my laptop settings.
Therefore I want to go back for 2 or 3 days back to get my old settings.
Kindly, let me know that how can I do that? Many thanks.

There is something happened with the Desktop layout.
When I start up my laptop then, every thing is showing opposite.
Difficult to explain, but when I come to the Desktop then every thing looks
down towards.

Anybody know how to get it back in real mode?

looks like some kind of malware to me - try MALWAREBYTES

maybe starting into protrected mode may help for downlaoding/installing/running malwarebytes

[GR7]

To go into protrected mode is F10 or F12?
Thanks.

It was my little kid who did that.
I tried now most of things I could. But no success.
Maybe this problem is impossible to resolve?

I'm sorry, protected was the wrong word, should have been:

Safe Mode

OMG. He just changed the settings. Go to control panel/appearance and personalization/ display/ screen resolution/ and the orientation should be landscape (not flipped). He just set it to flipped.




The screen shot is from Windows 7, but should be the same. I just uninstalled the Vista boot last week cause I hadn't used it in 6 months and wanted the space lol.

Let us know if it worked.

Good Luck

If everything is upside down, have you tried going into your video software and checking it? At least in one shot it looks like it's just rotated 180 degrees. In your video driver control software there should be a rotate setting.

First of all, thanks for the support everybody.
Finally the problem is now over. During frustration period I just
pressed CTRL + ALT + another button that changes it back to real mode.

little late checking this post... but
for future ita a good idea to learn how to use system restore function, as its pretty good for such problems.

Another good backup that's less drastic than doing a restore is ERUNT. It saves most of the registry hives but doesn't delete programs you downloaded or restore to old versions of programs or uninstall anything. It just sets the registry hives to be copied on next boot to those restored from the backup.

You have to reboot but it's something that will work even if you have restore points disabled.
Plus if you boot your machine every day you can set up an Autobackup to use a rotating set of
files for 7 days. The oldest gets deleted automatically. How to set it up is in the readme.

I wonder what that other button was?

I wonder what that other button was?

Must be a new variation on the "any key" as in "press any key" ?
