Metafile Download Failed Error

So you get the message “Metafile Download Failed Error” when you try to download Adobe Reader or Flash for that matter. Fear not!

The only reason I’m posting this fix is because so many people i’ve talked to have spoke about it, so here’s the easiest way to get around it I guess.

Download the installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ for your Adobe Reader errors, this should fix it, if not let me know. If you are looking to download Flash and your getting that error, then go to http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html to download it via the download manager.

This is pretty much the easiest way to get around that error. I think its just an error with the air app that’s trying to install reader/flash or something like that. If you are having this problem after you try this method, drop a comment below and I’ll see if I can help you out.

How to remove Win 7 Antispyware 2012

So your computer is telling you have 9999 viruses and this program wants you to pay to remove them? Fear not.

The program is a fake, you probably have no viruses what so ever, this just freaks people out when they see it, and they want to get it removed right away. Basically what this program does, gives you false information and doesn’t let you run exe’s, thats about it, heres a quick fix.

Step 1:
Start > in the search field type ‘command’ alliteratively you can press Win+R

Step 2:
When command opens (the black box) type ‘notepad’ and hit enter. Notepad will open, copy and paste the text below into notepad.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\.exe]
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\pezfile]
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe\shell\open\command]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\open\command]
@="\"%1\" %*"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe]
@="exefile"
"Content Type"="application/x-msdownload"

==========Contents of fix.inf (look the link above for more information)=======
[Version]
Signature="$Chicago$"
Provider=www.myantispyware.com

[DefaultInstall]
DelReg=regsec
AddReg=regsec1

[regsec]
HKCU, Software\Classes\.exe
HKCU, Software\Classes\pezfile
HKCR, .exe\shell\open\command

[regsec1]
HKCR, exefile\shell\open\command,,,"""%1"" %*"
HKCR, .exe,,,"exefile"
HKCR, .exe,"Content Type",,"application/x-msdownload"

Note: if you are doing this from another computer, just save the file to usb stick or some form of storage

Step 3:
After you have copied and pasted the text above to notepad, go to File > Save As or Ctrl+S, save the file as fix.reg and make sure the ‘Save type as’ is set to ‘All files (*.*)’. Save the file to your desktop, or if you are on another computer to your storage device.

Step 4:
Double click ‘fix.reg’ a box will pop up, just click ‘Yes’ to it. Then it will confirm the keys have been added to your registry just click ‘OK’.
Reboot your computer.

Step 5:
Download Malwarebytes. If this doesn’t work when you double click on it to install, then right click and pick ‘Run as Administrator’ that should let you install it. Once you have installed and updated the software, you will see a screen with different types of scans, choose ‘Preform Quick Scan’ from the list, hit ‘Scan’, let it do its thing.

Final step:
When Mailwarebytes gets done, click on ‘Show Results’ make sure every box is checked/ticked (they normally are by default). Then click ‘Remove Selected’ let it do its thing. After its done, it will open a log, just close it, if it says you have to restart, then restart, if not, then restart manually, Start > Shutdown/Restart.

When your computer restarts, that annoying Win 7 Antispyware 2012 will be gone, and you can now be left in piece.

Hope this helped, if you have any problems feel free to drop a comment and let me know.

Be careful what you download in future!

Basically did this for people who are only getting started with guitar and stuff.

Hope this helps some beginners out there.

Once again there is probably a million ways of doing this, i just like doing it this way. Hope you all are able to understand my accent and be able to learn this.

If your all pro at guitar and stuff, and like you know it all? I really dont want a cocky comment from you saying “thats easy sure” or “you suck” or something lol. This is for beginners so go and fuck yourself =).

If you take a shot at this, drop a comment with the link to your video, or leave a video response on the youtube video.

For all the pro’s out there, your amazing no one needs to hear it lol. i might be doing something wrong/different to how you do it, but i dont really care so dont be telling me.

I dont have a big professional mic and stuff, this was NOT edited, just hit record and went ahead with it.

1. Account > Privicy Settings > BLock Lists > Edit your lists.
2. Add their name or email into either box, block them, then unblock them.

That should get rid of the request to become their friend. If you know any other ways feel free to add it in the comments below.

*Update*
Facebook have fixed this, now you can just cancel your request if you choose to.

Head on over to the google font api page to read all about it, and go grab a few fonts in the font directory. (will be updated so much more over time)
