All items on the desktop are enlarged

original title: help

Everything on my screen is like blasts, or in large size, all my icons, internet and start menu. and I can't figure out how to put it to its normal size... no idea how to solve this problem?

Hello

There are a few things you can try:

Change the resolution of the screen;

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution

If that fixed it, go to the website of your computer manufacturer > drivers download Section > then key in your computer model number > find your operating system > find two graphics / video or from the Chipset drivers and download and install.

Then try to change the screen resolution.

Or do a system restore to before that happened.

    Original title: icons on the desktop

    I'm not 100% sure but I think that you are having a bad "file extension association. This is where the default program to open a file is incorrect. In the case of your office, these are all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) and the. LNK Association was by mistake coupled with Photo Viewer.

    I've seen this happen when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After you have selected the photo viewer (or another program) via the Select a program from a list of programs installedand check always use the selected program to open this type of file (circled in red below), the document or program referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in the Photo Viewer as it should.

    The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the Explorer will want to be opened by the photo viewer and often use the icon Photo Viewer to display the shortcut no matter what shortcut was originally intentioned to open. This is known as a file association and the default icon. The same condition can occur if you have performed these actions 'Open with' on one. JPG or even a. EXE, but the. LNK explanation is much more likely for the items on the desktop.

    The good news is that a small free utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is also a registry hack to achieve, but I recommend the utility unASSOC for its ease of use.

    You can get a copy of my OneDrive here. I used to send people elsewhere to download a copy, but this page is more in addition to confusion with misleading ads to download this and this computer of powders of snake oil "fixed".

    Just download, then use the utility to unassociate the. LNK files for the user or globally delete the file type and let windows rebuild a new default.

  • How to remove all items in the download under bookmark folder in the shortest time?

    I understand that all downloads from the internet and yahoo/google mail are stored in the "Download" folder I bookmarked when I want to delete. I think that if the download folder is never empty, then my mac will slow down. So I want to remove these downloads that I've seen. How can I remove all THE items in the shortest time? Deleting items, even in groups, takes a long time. Is there a method I can use so that all the items in the folder are deleted in one fell swoop?
    Thank you.

    Hi subhshy001,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Windows answers Forum community!

    Try this if you do not have

    Windows Explorer to create the folders and shortcuts in your document folder, drag and drop them on your desktop.

    If you have completed the steps and was not even useful,

    Follow these steps:

    Try to create a shortcut and sending it on the desktop.

    (1) open: Start Menu ,.
    (2) right-click: Internet Explorer icon .
    (3) select: send to > desktop (create shortcut).

    There should be a shortcut on the desktop .

    Make sure that the "show desktop icon" has a check against it

    OR

    Just click on the empty part of the desktop, choose new > then select the folder to create. Right click on this folder , select Rename it.

    If the steps above do not work then:

    You can scan your computer for malware.

    You can download, install and update anti-malware free of your favorite search engine and find malware.

    If the scan comes back clean, so I recommend doing a System File Checker too l to analyze your OS system files.

    To help resolve this problem, use the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. open an elevated command prompt . To do this, click Start , click principally made programs , Accessories , right-click guest , and then click run as administrator .  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow .
    2. type the following command and press ENTER: sfc/scannow (Yes there is a space after sfc) the sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions. This analysis do take some time to complete.

    Hope this information helped!

    Hi placebow,

    Open the Options folder by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options. On the general tab, click single-click to open an item. (To return to the standard click, click double-click to open an item.)

    The setting applies not only at the office, but also in other areas of the shell.

    It happened a few times now. While I use my computer, all applications and the windows are closed at the same time, I am disconnected and the computer is off, as if someone manually stops the computer. I turn on the computer and log in and everything seems to be okay. No data deleted, not that I could find and detect anyway. One day when I turned on the computer, it run chkdsk before doing the usual startup. I use the computer for 2 years and this is the first time, she never did a chkdsk on its own. I used Microsoft Essentials and no viruses were found.

    Should I worry?

  • All icons on the desktop changed to display the logo of Word (W)

    Separated from this thread.

    My HP laptop running on Windows 7 Home Basic 64-Bit. I have Microsoft Essentials antivirus. All icons on the desktop has changed to display the logo of Word (W). When I try to open programs, they all open the new document page in Word with "File Conversion - explorer.exe" dialog box. This happened after I inserted a borrowed Memorystick. Why can't I clean my pc with Microsoft Essentials?

    Hi Kata'ntja,

    If you can access the internet in any way, If you use Windows 7, go to http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html. and run the program to restore the EXE and possibly LNK file associations. That should restore your programs.

  • all rows in the table are not eligible for the specified partition

    SQL > Alter Table ABC
    Exchange 2 Partition P1 with Table XYZ;

    Modified table.

    SQL > Alter Table ABC
    Exchange 2 Partition P2 with Table XYZ;


    P2 Partition Exchange with XYZ Table
    *
    ERROR on line 2:
    ORA-14099: all rows in the table are not eligible for the specified partition

    The exchange partition works fine for the first time. However, if we try to swap the 2nd partition it gives the error.
    How to solve this error?
    How can I find the lines which are not qualified for a specific part. is there a query to find out the same thing?

    >
    Well, exchange of syntax and logic is not clearly as it should (IMHO). There is no element of syntax that tells Oracle we want to Exchange partition data in a table that is not partitioned or not partitioned into partition table data.
    >
    What? Not sure where you got that but maybe it was before you had first cup of coffee? ;)

    An "Exchange", it's just that; an Exchange. Partition data end up in the non-partitioned table and vice versa. It is meaningless and totally obsolete if "we want Exchange partition data in a table that is not partitioned or not partitioned into partition table data".
    >
    It was decided by Oracle not partitioned table control. If the non-partitioned table is empty, it means you want to Exchange data partition in a non-partitioned table. And if not partitioned table is not empty, it means you want to Exchange data in the table that is not partitioned into partition.
    >
    There is no decision to make. The segments are swapped. Oracle doesn't check, know or even care if one or the other or both segments are empty. 'Control' which is carried out (by default except if NO CONTROL is used) only consists of ensuring all the data in the segment intended for the partition belongs to this partition.

    It is what gives the example of John. This can NEVER work if table1 is empty unless p1 is empty at the beginning:
    1 Exchange p1 with table1
    2 Exchange p2 with table1

    As John explains, assuming that no other operations are trying to put the data from p1 P2 which is not possible if p1 actually contains data.

    You can save it for next April 1!
