Windows 10: Running in a protected mode

Diagnostic Tools test revealed Error Code: BIOHD-8. Yet, I am still able to use computer in a reduced functionality with the power button showing yellow instead of blue. What is the name of this protected mode?

:)

 

Return from protected mode into standards mode

Hi Martin,

We need more information about your concern. Please provide the following:

• Are you pertaining to Internet Explorer or the whole Windows system running in
  Protected Mode?
• How did you set up this Protected Mode?

We'd appreciate any additional information you may provide.

 

New FF - passwords


Hi:

If that setting is already enabled, then I suggest as the next troubleshooting step might be Mozilla Safe Mode (not to be confused with Windows Safe Mode)):

Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode | Firefox Help

• Please report back and let us know the outcome, as it will dictate the next steps.
• Also: please tell us what AV/AM/firewall programs are you running on this system?

Thanks,
MM

 

How To Format A Write Protected Flash Memory ?

¿You already tried this one?...

Run CMD


1. diskpart
2. list disk

Then in the 3º step, put the correct number of disk in the list for the usb flash (if it's listed in disk 3, then you'll have to write select disk 3).

2. select disk #
3. clean
4. create partition primary
5. select partition 1
6. active
7. format fs=fat32
8. assign
9. exit

with that commands you will format the flash drive in fat32, if you have a large drive you can select also "format fs=ntfs" in step 7.

good luck!
