wscript.exe - no disk, There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive\device\Harddisk1\DR1.
Also noticed folders and files appearing.
I am using Win 7.
I got this by allowing my daughter to transfer files from another hardrive.
I do not have broadband.
Is there a way to sort this out?

Because you can't do that with a lot of programs. There are entries in registry, system folders and such and they would not have transferred over.
You would need to delete all that, and install the program from it's install files.

1387476 2014-11-01 03:07:00 Two things you can do.
1. Use system Restore and roll the computer back to before your Daughter Transferred files, this will remove the reg entries that are trying to run. ( basically relating to what PCTec mentioned, it will reverse the damage)

2. This is a workaround NOT a fix. Open Regedit, navaigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Windows. On the right you'll find a ErrorMode Key - Double click it and change the value from 0 to 2. Reboot.

The problem with editing the registry in #2 is it will suppress ALL error messages, so if there are any problems you wont know.

ALSO if you dont edit entries right you may just make things worse.

Note: That error can also be caused by a Virus or malware.

Edited: you can also have a lookin msconfig to see if anything is set to run that relates to that error, may or may not be an entry, but again this would only be a work around not a fix.

Option 1 is the safer option.
