  1. Help with programs resetting and not saving settings after reboot


    For QUITE a while now, I have had the strangest issue on my PC (running the latest version of Win10) where certain programs reset themselves whenever I restart/shutdown my PC. It's not that these programs necessarily reset themselves, but it's as if they're stuck in some bullshit quantum time loop. For instance, I have Steam installed and every time I restart my PC I am forced to sign back in Okay fine I'll just sign back in. But just today when I was signing back in, Steam somehow forgot all the games I have installed and shows that none of my games are installed. Another program, Logitech G Hub, completely resets itself every time I reboot. Whenever I try to open it after rebooting I am brought to the welcome screen and I have to create ALL of my profiles from the start. I really cannot understand what is happening with Windows, because this issue has happened before in the past on completely different programs where they are stuck at default until I change settings and reboot to start the cycle again. Is this some kind of Registry or AppData problem? Would clearing my Appdata folders solve any of these issues? I appreciate any help or tips on how to fix this.

    How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

    Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


    First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

    I will assume that these devices belong to you.

    step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
    step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
    step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
    step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
    step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
    step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

    Break command list: Break Commands

    Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

    If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
