Hi there,

If the icons have been removed from your desktop, it can be that the programs are still on your computer.

Try checking, in your Start menu | Control Panel | Add or Remove Programs to see if they are there. Then I would suggest a complete uninstall and new install direct from the website.

Please also check your computer's capacity.

Let me know if we can assist you again.

Cheers,
Yasmeen :)

RTG, but different software. It is the CASINO software that vanishes, or rather, it seems, your desktop icons.

I have noticed a prompt sometimes appear asking me if I want to "clear unused icons" from my desktop. Perhaps you somehow have this set to "always do this on reboot", rather than "ask first". Windows probably does not correctly determine what is, and is not, "in use". A simple example is that the screensaver will cut in midway through watching a movie or TV program, clearly I am USING the PC, but Windows thinks not. I have had to delay the cut in time to longer than any TV program, so this does not keep happening.

have never been asked to clear unused Icons I might have it set bit I dunno where I dont use a screensaver
so do you know where I can find "clear unused icons" from my desktop. Perhaps you somehow have this set to "always do this on reboot",

when I go to start all programs all the RTG's are still listed but when I scan over them it says empty

CW tried to say oh it was my cookies needed deited temp files too then they wanted me to go into safe mode an mess with bios ((( something I have no knowledge) I said forget it


Thanks

hhhmmmmm cookies , safe mode and bios are totally unrelated... i am surprised they told you to do something like that.... :rolleyes:

Did you check under "C:\Program Files", this is where RTGs are installed by default.

example: C:\Program Files\iNetBet Casino

Assuming I understood VWM, XP SP3 only gives you the options to manually clear now or every 60 days. Anyway, you can check your options by opening your Control Panel, select and double click the Display icon, then follow/pick/click the noted by the numbers of bars in the screenshot to see if you may have other options than moi...........FTR, you can also do a Desktop Cleanup anytime manually without going to your CP by right clicking on your desktop, then making a couple of selections that takes you to the Desktop Cleanup Wizard but you would of course know so not applicable....G/L!!!

What antivirus program are you running? There's some that think that any casino installed is evil and will try to get rid of it....it's quite possible that this runs when you reboot and is doing this evil deed...

And I cannot believe that CW tried to tell you to mess with BIOS settings!!!!! They should be smacked for this. Any normal computer user runs the risk of messing things up even more by trying to do this!! Not only that, but BIOS has NOTHING to do with what's going on here, and they should realize that.

If I were you, I'd PM the CW rep here and let them know what's going on with their incompetent support people. As I mentioned in another thread, if they don't know the answer to your problem(s), they should QUIT TRYING TO GUESS.

Sorry, but I find this amusing at the same time, and not in regards to your situation. I find it amusing that CW thinks that clearing cookies will solve the problem of the casino's program files disappearing. The CSR that suggested that should be spanked. Where's Pina? She would enjoy that...:D

just trying to help you and understand whats going on... if u say they are there under the Program Files then its already installed , don't need to re-download, just locate casino.exe under that directory and double click on it. It should start the casino shell.

Zone alarm is a firewall while AVG is an antivirus program.
If you have a router it will be firewalled and you probably don't really need zone alarm but unless it is causing problems it is best kept.
It does sound as though AVG is removing the shortcuts thinking they are something nasty.

You could try this.
Right click on the AVG icon in your task bar.
open AVG interface.
double click on resident shield.
Ensure remove all threats automatically is unchecked, if checked,uncheck.

If that does not work you might follow the same process but this time
click the manage exceptions tab in resident shield.
click add path.
find the location of the casino execute files that are disappearing and add them.

You can first try what Jasmine says or right click on the casino.exe and send to desktop(create shortcut) but I think they will disappear again.

Hope this helps though I am just guessing but a little more educated than CS suggestions you have been getting.
Bios indeed :rolleyes:

ok opened AVG went to resident sheild only thing checked is
ask me before removing threats

ya lost me here
click the manage exceptions tab in resident shield.
click add path.
find the location of the casino execute files that are disappearing and add them.


Jazzy when I install them er download there are 2 icons per casino left on desktop an I leave them there when I reboot they vanish

I do Thanks yas for tryin to help but this has been beating me up oh gosh well over a yr when I picked up a virus an got rid of it an had to do a complete recovery

Cindy
 
well if they're installed you can just click start > all programs then
right click on the launch program and choose send to desktop (shortcut).

I had zonealarm installed and the other day it said it had an upgrade available. So I said ok. It completely trashed my system. After that I could only get out to secure sites suchas paypal and my online banking.

I could reboot (but that was dog slow) and only access non-secure sites like CM, yahoo etc.. for about 10 minutes and then it would stop accessing any sites except for the secure sites. I'd see "waiting for" with the ip number in the bottom status bar.

I uninstalled the program via the Add/Remove and tried to download it again. It would get to 99% and say server not responding.

I finally somehow got it reinstalled and tried to use their uninstall program but it gave me some grief about admin. so I tried logging in as a guest, bla bla bla.

Finally I found a utility in their forum that uninstalled it in a few seconds.

The machine ran like brand new after that.

I heard it was a good program but it always slowed this computer down even when I first installed it.

I ran Ccleaner to clean up the registry a little.

No worries.
I assume you have a folder on your desktop "unused desktop shortcuts", if so do the shortcuts appear in there, this would mean that disk cleanup was responsible.

Back to the AVG thing there is an easy to find out if this might be responsible before we do what I suggested so.
Make sure you have the shortcuts on your desktop.
right click AVG task bar icon
open AVG interface
double click resident shield
uncheck resident shield active box
save changes
reboot your PC

If the shortcuts are still there we know AVG is responsible, if not then it is something else :p

Either way go back in AVG and ensure you check resident shield active box again and save.

It could be if none of the above works your user account is messed up which sounds possible if you have had big problems in the past.
A workaround would be to create a new account.


To do this (First ensure the shortcuts are on your desktop)
goto control panel
click user accounts
click create a new account
give it a name,click next
ensure computer administrator is checked.
When finished reboot and when prompted select the account you have just set up.
Hopefully if this was the problem the shortcuts should still be there.
 
Jas, if you are running "Zonealarm" then you should disable "Windows Firewall" since you would now have Three (3) conflicting Firewalls up an running if you are also using a Router too...too much confusion going on for the processor and registry.

EDIT: The other thing too is that "Zonealarm" is also a virus protection program and it will conflict with AVG if you are using both of them simultaneously.

I suspect She is using Zone alarm free which is just the firewall Rob.
Zone alarm and AVG free are a good combo but as Rob says it is best to turn Windows firewall off.
Goto control panel and select Network and internet settings.
Select windows firewall and make sure the off box is checked.
I have not heard of the software firewall conflicting with a hardware firewall (Router) although it maybe overkill to have both it may also add an extra layer of protection and should work fine.
 
When you click on the download from an RTG site and the window pops up, are you chosing Save or Run ? With the casinos disppearing after a reboot, it just made me wonder if that could possibly be one of the problems . I realize you have gambled online and done downloads for years so this question isn't meant in an insulting manner. With everyone helping eliminate possibilites, I didn't see this one and will take a smack if I just failed to see it. LOL.

I'm one of those who strives to save every minute of extra work I can. At my age, I don't have time to waste. :)So, I created a folder on my desktop and titled it Casinos. Whenever I download a new casino and it installs, I then drag the casino desktop icon into the folder. When and if I want to play, there are all my little casinos together. It's easier for me that way than scrolling down the Programs list, even though I do alphabetize those, too.

When I was having the trouble with zonealarm (the freebie as well) a bunch of programs including the casinos were no longer listed in my (Crtl Panel) Add/Remove programs. Once ZA was removed they all reappeared.

Perhaps disable ZA in the startup and reboot to see if the icons stay or go?

Thanks

Windows is disabled a very Dear Friend at GG that knows her stuff told me long time ago to disable windows
Router is that the box I have sitting on my surround sound that we have 3 pc's plugged into then they go to the cable box if so then I have a router

also Gary has a router in the garage er tool room dont know what that is used for tho:rolleyes:

I have used AVG an Zone Alarm for years now no wonder my pc never types what I mean:D

nah just messing with ya didnt know it would cause a conflict

I choose save an then run never ever would take a post fron you as insulting
I also have a folder for casino's an virus stuff an screenshots
I never ever thought not to save them while downloading tho

Thanks littlebit:)

OK so they were still there when you rebooted, right?
So it is AVG removing them so you need to follow these steps.
First try this quick method by uninstalling a casino then turning off resident shield (you know how by now :)
Download the casino and install
turn on resident shield
reboot
If they have disappeared you will have try to the more complicated way but if you follow step by step you should be ok.

right click on your casino shortcut.
select properties and then the shortcut tab at the top.
then click find target
A window will open up where the casino.exe is. (the reason for doing this will become clear soon)
You can minimize this window or leave it open but you will need to refer to it again in a minute.
Right click AVG
open AVG interface
double click resident shield
click manage exceptions
click add path (a little window will open)
now the path you want to add needs to lead to the casino,exe
you can see the path you need by looking in the window we opened earlier (find target) for a MG casino it might be something like C:\MicroGaming\Casino\32Red for eg. (It is in the little address bar)
Now to get to C:\ in that little window you need to click mycomputer first then you will see it listed
In my example I would then click c:\
then click microgaming
then click casino
At this point I could click ok and all my MG casinos would be excluded.
You will see the path come up when you click ok then you need to click apply
job done.(hopefully)
reboot and see.
If you have more than one offending casino in a different folder you will need to do the same for that.

If all else fails I would simply try another antivirus ;)

Rusty my Dear:rolleyes:
my nephew came up today an we did this we even went as far as uninstalling zone alarm ((( he was at the controls not I):eek: lol we would download a few an then add the path to AVG reboot an damned if they were not gone again

ok so you sat try another antivirus
what do you suggest that is good an free

oh yeah when he uninstalled Zonealarm he re hooked up the windows firewall at the same time:confused:

Thanks
Cindy
 
ok did all that was suggested in here
took AVG off an downloaded Avast an the RTG's still vanish when I reboot
I tried saving them I tried not saving them I tried renameing ihe smart download for each casino as when I would try to install er download it would say a smartdownload all ready exsist do you wanna replace it if I said no it would not download

so I am stuck reinstalling them every time I wanna play RTG:mad:

Thanks all for the help

Cindy:rolleyes:
 
Okay what you need to do is uninstall all RTG's that you may have on your computer. Second when you install them again you will need to turn off your antivirus until the installation of the RTG is complete.

You may still have RTG files on your computer, you may want to delete those. Because when you try to install again, it will recognize it as already being installed.

After you have uninstalled all your rtgs when you reboot..click on start..run and then type in regedit..go to software and look for the rtg folder and see if it's still remaining...you have to be very very careful when doing this as to not mess up your registry..if you see the rtg folder you need to delete that folder and reboot again and try a fresh install.

I have AVG Free and it causes me no problems with the casinos...also clear out your cookies and temp files. If this doesn't help you need to get your puter serviced or you have malicious spyware on your computer that's interfering with the install. I would do an online scan using Panda to see if this is also a problem.

With all the icons disappearing I thinking spyware or a virus.

Are you positive that the casino's program files are disappearing, and not just the icons?

Next time they disappear, browse over to C:\program files\ and see if the files are still there..For example: C:\program files\jackpot capital

when i hit start my computer open the C drive go to say Rushmore folder open it there is all the info
but to play there I have to click the icon in the folder that says install so I am basically reinstalling all the casino's as I said
they might be in my C drive but they are no use to me there
when I hit start All programs an hover over Rushmore it says empty

Thanks
