    Open .99bf06 file at Start Up

    Hi,

    AppData\Local folder contains files of applications that are user-specific. To better manage this prompt, here are the quick and easy steps that you can follow:

    • Type msconfig in Cortana.
    • Click on Startup tab.
    • Look for C:\Users\Family\AppData\Local\fb171 in the Location column.
    • Uncheck related program to the error.
    • Reboot your PC.
    Let us know should you need further assistance.

    Regards.

  3. Open .99bf06 file at Start Up

    Hey guys - hoping someone can help.

    At startup I get a popup asking me "how do you want to open this file?", but I don't recognise the file type.

    The file is listed as a .99bf06 file - which I've never heard of.

    I've searched my C: drive and found the file sitting in the folder: C:\Users\Family\AppData\Local\fb171

    The folder contains two files - the .99bf06 file mentioned already, and a file 917c7.bat which looks like a batch file.

    I've got no idea what these files are, so just wondering if they are something critical to Windows, or if I can just delete the files & folder?

    Thanks!

    open .disabled file at start up

    Hi,

    AFAIK there's no such thing as a file with a .disabled extension.
    But if you look to the left row of the CCleaner screenshot it shows a lot of programs that are disabled at startup.
    It's probably one of those that needs to be running for the main program to function.
    Hard to say which one but enabling then disabling one by one until the message goes away would tell you more about which one is complaining.

    Maybe one of the one from Razer, maybe a Lenovo one. Just guessing though.

    Cheers, *Wink

    Do you use Spybot search and destroy?

  7. I have finally found out what it was. I went under startup in task manager and found a file called "Sidebar274.lnk.disabled" I turned that off and it no longer shows the message.
