Windows 10: Recurring error on start-up

Lately I've been experiencing errors on my recently formatted PC. When I turn it ON after a long period of it being shutdown it turns off when the motherboard logo shows on screen. When this happens I can turn it ON again and everything works fine; today it even restarted on it's own and I didn't need to press the button. I've been researching into the cause of this error and paying attention to the Event Viewer to be safe and all that. Also, I hear as if something powers down inside sometimes, but I see no change on performance. From what I have read it might be the HDD entering in stand-by m

Recurring Explorer error that I cannot trace

I'd consider myself a fairly advanced home user, even daring to call myself a superuser but I've recently experienced a recurring error dialog that I cannot trace that is driving me mad.

My workstation is a Windows 10 64Bit Version 1809 (Build 17763.316) and I get the recurring dialog:

"This file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action. Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Apps Settings page."

What's weird is that there is no corresponding log in the event viewer under the "Application" or the "System" event logs. Is there anything I can do to trace this issue further?

Applications running at the time of error:

• Visual Studio 2015
  
• SQL Server Management Studio
  
• Google Chrome (only my web app is open and there's nothing that calls for an app to open)
  
• Eset NOD32 Antivirus (12.1.31.0)
  
• Sticky Notes
  

Is there a way to enable advanced debugging or trace what process is trying to open a file? There are no scheduled tasks that would suggest they're the cause of this issue either..

 

Recurring error screen

Hi,

When do you receive the error message box?

I suggest you to uninstall the display drivers and reinstall them in compatibility mode and check:

To uninstall the driver, follow the steps below:

• Press Windows key + R.
• Type devmgmt.msc.
• Right click on the driver you want to uninstall
  
• Click on Uninstall.
• Restart the system.

After the computer restarts, install the driver in compatibility mode:

• Select the setup file.
• Right click on it and click on properties.
• Click on Compatibility tab.
• Select the operating system.
• Click Ok.

Hope this helps.

 

Digital Download with Recurring Payments

I've got a few websites and blogs in which I sell a digital product. I've been using E-Junkies to Email the file to the customer after collecting payment via PayPal.

This was a good arrangement for one off payments, but now I want to create a membership site and need Recurring Payments. My website is not using a CMS like Word Press or Drupal so I can't use one of their third party add-on.

Any suggestions?
