Applications of type Windows 8

What is the difference between desktop applications and applications of type Windows 8?

I will try to present a brief explanation

Windows 8 Apps are built under the application system similar to those with smart phones and Mac

They are downloaded or purchased from the App Store in Windows 8 and are linked to your Microsoft account
Their removal/installation/updates are handled by the App system
Desktop applications are independent of the application system, run directly under Windows and are not related to what whether default
Their removal/installation/updates are handled by the user (there are a few exceptions like the application developer can configure the program to be updated)

    Just upgraded to macOS Sierra.

    Now, I get an avalanche of:

    "macOS needs repair your library to run applications. Type your password to allow this. ', dialog boxes.  They just continue to flow upward.

    I tried to set the permissions on the House and the library directories, by doing a Get Info-> sharing and Permissions-> select user-> select Read & Write-> apply to what's included...

    This seems to set the permissions that you expect.

    I thought about it.  I decided to include 4 emails from different vendors in my Mail in Windows 8 application and realized that they all had different folder list.  Each folder in the application list was exactly the same as it has been implemented in my original email with the vendor account. for example, gmail, Hotmail, etc.

    I connected to each of my email on the suppliers Web site accounts and created new folders here.  When I went back to the application of Mail Windows 8 all my new files now posted.

    The App is just to import what you have already set up.  You cannot create folders in the application itself.

  • HP 255 G4: 10 applications reinstalled / settings Windows is back after a reboot

    Hello

    I just bought a HP 255 G4, which comes with Windows 10. I find that when I remove some pre-installed Windows 10 applications and make a few changes to Synaptics (more precisely, to turn on scrolling with the touchpad) and restart or stop/start the laptop, applications are reinstalled and the changes in my settings are reversed. I can live with the reinstallation of applications, but the parameter being back is very annoying. Is there a way to avoid this?

    See you soon,.

    Tony

    Hi Tony,.

    Try the following.

    Hold down the Windows key and press R

    In the run box, type regedit and press enter

    In the registry editor, navigate to the following

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Synaptics\SynTP\Install

    Inside, look for a key named DeleteUserSettingsOnUpgrade

    If it is present, right click on the key and select Edit

    Set the field data of the value 0 (zero) , and then click Ok.

    Close the registry editor.

    Make the Synaptics setting changes you need in the usual way and save them, and then check if they are now kept after a reboot.

    Kind regards
