The task bar has two control panel icons
The task bar has two icons in Control Panel. When I added my office to the two taskbar Control Panel icons apperded. (I have the taskbar right-click, then toolbars and selected Desktop). I can delete the second icon in Control Panel, but it returns to the restart. I found as subjects during a Google search. Someone else has the same double icons? Is there a fix to Windows? I am running Windows 7 on the new system.
That did not work.
It does not - it did for me when I go from 7 to 8 and then 8 to 8.1
You MUST delete a registry key.
Create a file "deleteCPIcon.reg" with:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\{5399E694-6CE5-4D6C-8FCE-1D8870FDCBA0}]
Run the file
Voila!

How can I find out what programs has not been used for awhile so I can remove from Control Panel

How can I find out what programs has not been used for awhile so I can remove from Control Panel
It is removed, it's just in your own knowledge and memory. If you know that you have not used and don't want that, then you can delete it. It's entirely your choice -
Control Panel icons does not.
Some (most) icons in my control panel do not work. When I double click on it, I don't get an error message. I don't get an hourglass. They just don't do anything. Oddly, they seem to all be related to changes or add/remove elements (for example, add/remove program, display, user accounts, etc.). I searched internet and found a few .cpl files that allow me to access these items through the feature 'run '. When I do that, I am able to use the work in them. This makes me think the lies of the issue with shortcut icon / itself and not with the function (Add/Remove Programs, display, etc.).
Hi ktruesde,
1. did you of recent changes on the computer?
2. do you have security software installed on the computer?
3 when was the last time it was working fine?
Check if the problem persists in safe mode.
A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222
If the issue is not still in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.
I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.
How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State

Reset the computer to start as usual
When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:
(a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.
(b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
(c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.
(d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

Another forum for desktop icons frozen suggests will restore program, but I'm having trouble
by following the instructions given. Any detailed instructions and suggestions - or any other solutions would be much
appreciated!
You are welcome; Sorry, it didn't fix it.
It seems that by what you tell us it works OK in Mode safe as the system restore worked.
Function icons open programs and run in a reasonable manner in Mode safe?
Try this:
Download, install, update and scan your system with the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware in Mode safe mode with networking:

And here's how to go in Safe Mode options; Select safe mode with networking from the list of options:

Here is information on improving the performance of MS, but it was not intended to fix the frozen icons!

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
There are many things that could cause this type of problem.
They may have installed more then an Antivirus, which is a no-no.
If the worst happens, instead of scrapping, back up the data and reinstall Vista from the DVD or from the recovery partition.
See you soon.

How can I set the album names in alphabetical order
I would like to put my music albums alphabetically on my iPod Shuffle, but have no idea how to do that, nothing on the menu drop-down windows that can help do that. Can anyone help?
Is your current 4th gen (or 3rd gen) shuffle model? If so, you must create a playlist (in iTunes) and synchronize with the shuffle. This playlist is a playlist just normal that you set up in iTunes, with the songs you want on the shuffle. the shuffle has no need to be online when you do this part. It can be sorted alphabetically by name of the album (or somehow desired). If you are new on iTunes and need help with playlists, please after return.
Once you have a playlist set up, select the shuffle in iTunes so that you see on the screen of the settings in the iTunes window. On the left, in the sidebar, under settings, click on music. Right, you see music settings on the screen the shuffle.
NOTE: All of the songs on the shuffle that are not in your iTunes library (on the computer) will be lost. If all the songs are in your iTunes library, no problem.
At the top, check the box to Sync music. Below, select synchronize playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Below, look under playlists to find the playlist with your songs to shuffle and checkmark it. At the bottom, click apply to sync the playlist for the shuffle. Further, you can simply update this playlist in iTunes (add and remove songs). The shuffle has no need to be connected. The next time that you connect the shuffle (or click sync , if already connected), iTunes automatically updated the shuffle with the same changes.
When you use the shuffle, use the VoiceOver feature to select the playlist in the Playlist Menu. This document explains how to enable and use VoiceOver.

If your shuffle's old model of the 1st or the 2nd gen, thanks for posting back.

How can I get my address book in alphabetical order?
My address book is not sorted. I need to see/sort on 'Email' whenever I need to access. Then and only then to find an e-mail address. I have to do this EVERY time I send an email. After that I go back to Thunderbird, the email addresses are blurred again. FWIW, I have deleted the address book profile and reimported it. But it makes no difference.
