After the last update of Windows8 file windows Explorer open but do not appear on the screen

I already searched the net for this question, but none of the above applies to my problem.

When I start the file Explorer in the bar of tasks or by other means, the file Explorer window starts minimized (not shown on the screen).  I checked in the file Explorer properties/shortcut/Run and I tried both normal and maximized window and file Explorer opens however Minimized windows.

The problem is that none of these small icons will maximize (appear).

My question is what update broke the file Explorer?

Hello

Thanks for the reply.

Please refer to the suggestions of WebSmitheryUK responded on 4 January 2013 and check the issue.

I hope this information helps.

Thank you

  • Firefox is open on the toolbar from my office, but does not appear on my screen. Seems to have disappeared to the right. Don't click on or type in firefox at all.

    I tried a reinstall, and yet, it does not display the open Firefox. All the patches they need me to access Firefox and I can't. This only happens with Firefox. The Explorer would work fine, but I hate to use it. What should I do?

    Do you get the Firefox when you right-click on the icon in the Windows taskbar and enlarge the window?

    You can use one of them to start Firefox in Safe Mode:

    • On Windows, hold down the SHIFT key while starting Firefox with a double click on the shortcut to the desktop Firefox
    • On Mac, hold the Options key when starting Firefox
  • Unable to put the bookmark bar on the page after your last update

    MONITORING INDICATES TO BOOKMARK BAR BUT IT WON'T SHOW WENT TO CUSTOMIZE BAR BOOKMARK CHECKED AND CLICK ON CUSTOMIZE AGAIN WHICH SHOULD PLACE IT UNDER THE SEARCH BAR BUT DOES NOTHING. THIS HAS HAPPENED AFTER YOUR LAST UPDATE.
    ANY IDEA?
    Thank you

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    If this does not work, maybe it's time to try refresh (called "Reset" in older versions of Firefox) which can resolve many issues by restoring Firefox as his default from factory and save your bookmarks, history, passwords, cookies, and other essential information.

    Note: When you use this feature, you will lose all the extensions, toolbar customizations, and certain preferences. See article Firefox Refresh - reset modules and parameters for more information.

    Refresh for Firefox:

    1. Open the troubleshooting information page using one of the following methods:

      • Click the menu button

        click Help

        and select troubleshooting information. Should open a new tab containing your troubleshooting information.

      • If you are unable to access the Help menu, type Subject: support in your address bar to bring up the troubleshooting information page.
    2. At the top right of the page, you should see a button that says 'Refresh Firefox' ('reset Firefox' in older versions of Firefox). Click on it.
    3. Firefox closes. Once the update process is complete, Firefox will display a window with the imported information.
    4. Click Finish and reopen Firefox.

    This corrects the problem? Please report to us!

    Thank you.

  • No matter what file/program I open and work will appear later in the trash & Windows create a lot of restore points.

    Original title: Windows XP: recycle bin and estore points.

    After the last formatting the computer and installation of Windows XP:
    (1) any file/program I opened and work with / appears later in the trash even if I did not remove it. The file or the program remains in its original folder and nothing happens to her, I can work with him when I want.
    (2) Windows creates so many "restore points" that once a month I have to delete "all except the last" in order to have my program anti-virus (PC-Tools) are working properly.  Is there a cure for this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Yael

    You did the right thing by turning SR off on your external drive.  See http://bertk.mvps.org/html/tips.html#11

    There is no need to have the system restore check a partition which contains only data files.  Http://bertk.mvps.org/html/description.html (this is emphasis added)

    About the system restore

    • System Restore monitors changes to the system and saves the State of the system as a restore point. If a system problem occurs following a change of system, the user can return the system to a previous state by using a restore point data.
      Applications and the system can create restore points when changes made to the system occur. System Restore also creates checkpoints every 24 hours of absolute time. In addition, users can create manual restore at all time points.
    • System Restore does not restore user data or documents, so it will not cause users to lose their files, email, browsing history or Favorites. System Restore is also provided to users in safe mode, making it easier for them to reclaim their computers before that happens the problems. Note: a system of Safe Mode or restore the command prompt a cancellation restore point will NOT created!

    The monitoring system

    • System Restore monitors and restores a set of file system and application, the States of these files before the change of the archiving system. System Restore also records a snapshot of the registry (Note: some current registry values will persist) and some dynamic system files. When the System Restore detects that the user is not actively using the computer, (idle time) he compresses the registry and copies of any file made.
    • System Restore requires a minimum of 200 MB of free disk space on the system drive during the installation. When the amount of falls of free space on the disc below 50 MB on ANY monitored drive, System Restore goes into sleep mode and continues to create restore points. All restore points are deleted at that time. System Restore reactivates and resumes create restore points from 200 MB of free disk space on the system drive.
    • Files that are monitored or excluded from the monitoring are specified in the file % windir%\system32\restore\Filelist.xml. For more information, see Monitoring of file Extensions.

    I am currently using the Microsoft Security Essentials as my Antivirus which is uptodate. Run full scans with antivirus but the scans is not revealed. Also, I'm a windows user who is also updated regularly.

    So far, I noticed only these problems that make me very difficult to work. The main problem is that I'm not in a situation to format my laptop. Please help me with these problems.

    Hello

    Restart in safe mode and run the antivirus scans here. You have symptoms of an infected machine. Scanning in safe mode will reduce efforts of the virus to avoid detection.

    To restart in safe mode, restart normally, and when the system resets you can press the F8 key. It is point immediately after the screen logo POST or manufacturer initial of the system, and just before Windows starts to load. This will give you a boot menu where you can choose Safe mode.

    While you're here, you must also download and run the tool free malwarebytes here:http://www.malwarebytes.org/ (choose Safe mode with networking to do this). He can catch something that lack of MSE, no security tool is perfect.
