Why i got this “Sorry, Netflix is not available in your country yet” alert? I recently traveled to China on a business trip and I found a lot of websites that we take for granted in all other parts of the world are blocked in China including Netflix. Each time I opened the Netflix app or Netflix website in China, I just got a notice like “Sorry, Netflix is not available in your country yet” on my screen. Why Netflix is not available in China? How can I fix the error and access my favorite Netflix series in China? Any help will be highly appreciated.

I recently started having with the constant 0xc00000142 error when I opened my Google Chrome on my Windows 10 laptop. I try my security tool to fix the error and system things, but nothing helps, this error still happens when opening Google Chrome. What can I do? Can you help me with this issue?

Why 0xc00000142 Error (Can’t Use Google Chrome) Occurs?

0xc00000142 Error is a Windows error. 0xc00000142 Error would happen when you open Google Chrome, Powerpoint, Excel, Microsoft Word and other applications on your computer when an unexpected condition occurs or when a desired operation has failed. You may get the popup saying “The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application.” You might also get another error code saying (0xc0000005). This kind of error code takes time to fix and it is a tough work. When 0xc00000142 Error occurs, you will not be able to use the damage application, that’s why you can’t use Google Chrome. A Windows error is an error that happens when an unexpected condition occurs or when a desired operation has failed.

I was on Google searching the information about renting a house and a pop up came up saying my device had been infected with “Your battery is 28.1% damaged because of harmful viruses from recent adult sites” and to hit ok to fix it. Well I didn’t hit ok I just closed the website out. Should I be worried? I am so scared with the warning.

Important Things You Have To Know If Your iPhone/iPad Fell Prey to The 28.1 Warning:

The 28.1 Warning is simply used to promote services or malicious software on your iPhone or iPad. Most of the pop-ups are for revenue, from services that are promoted by adware or potentially unwanted programs. The pop-ups might also offer a update for Java, the Adobe Flash Player or a Media Player update, which are obviously scams to install more unwanted software. If you got this 28.1 Warning pop-up once and you managed to close it then you are probably fine. But if you keep getting it constantly then there’s probably some app installed on your device which has to be removed. And you need to know:

My Dell laptop won’t connect to the Wi-Fi but can see the wifi routers account, or more correctly says “limited connection”. Every other pc, laptop and phone in the house can connect to the wifi very well. This Dell laptop won’t connect ever since the auto-upgrade to windows 8.1. I would consider that the problem is with the router except that all my other devices connect to it just fine. Also it should be noted that this Dell did connect and use the wifi router just fine until the upgrade to 8.1. So I didn’t think it is the router problem, but I confounded by why this won’t work. Do you have any suggestions? Please help me.

Why computer won’t connect to the WiFi? How to fix?

Are you annoying with the computer won’t connect to the WiFi? Actually, this is a popular problem. We all think that take having an always on wireless internet connection for granted: we’re used to it just being there when we need it. Unless you’re particularly unlucky and plagued by broadband problems, or live in a remote part of the country, fast access to the internet, allowing the streaming of audio and high-definition video, is the norm. But the problem with this is that things go wrong so infrequently that we’re not used to fix them. When something does go awry with the WiFi connection on your computer, it is tricky to know where to start. If your computer won’t connect to the WiFi, maybe the problem is your router or your broadband provider’s network, or there is an issue with your own WiFi network. You can check the first by following your broadband provider’s advice. Read the rest of this post »

My file explorer simply keeps crashing when navigating in folders. Everything has worked fine for the first few months on my computer, but in the last week I have had the issue every single time.
Example:
I open up a folder and it immediately goes to one full screen. If I try to move or resize the folder, the folder resizes very small and blinks constantly. Basically it crashes and I have to right click and close File Explorer. And I go to “This PC” and the window that pops up shows all my drives but not how much storage they have left. When I try opening a drive or folder the window and taskbar closes down and reopen after a few seconds. It happens almost every time I try opening a folder.
Do you know how to fix this? Please help.

Hello, I’m using Firefox browser on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. The Firefox has been crashing at random times. I have been ignoring it for the most part, but it is has been happening more frequently the last few days, so I want to finally try to figure out what’s going on. I have tried updating Firefox a few times, as well as my add-ons and plug-ins. But it hasn’t helped. And as far as I can tell, there doesn’t seem to be anything specific that triggers the crashes. Sometimes it will happen when I go to a YouTube link and sometimes it will happen when I’m in the middle of reading plain text. And sometimes it happens when I’m not doing anything at all. What do I do? It would be greatly appreciated if you can help me.
