  • Windows 8 won't let Me open anything but Internet

    When I try to open Word, Powerpoint, settings, and other things, it will not open.  Literally, nothing happens.  It won't let me even upgrade to Windows 8.1.  A small keyboard as symbol flashes in the lower right of the screen.  Fortunately, I can still use the internet.  It's the only thing that I can open it.  And keeps the screen blinks a few seconds and the tabs will disappear until I move the mouse over it.  Help, please!

  • I can't open anything that uses Windows Explorer...

    I just installed Office 2007 and now I can't open anything that uses Windows Explorer. This includes the trash, all files and folders, same control panel. The only things I seem to be able to run correctly are programs. When I try to open anything, I get a popup window stating "Windows Explorer...". (Not responding) "and it will remain forever as this very pretty. After some clicking, it will inform me that Windows Explorer has stopped responding and that I can force close, waiting, etc.

    I can't open all the products of the 2007 Office Suite that I just installed but I can't delete them either, since I don't have access to these files in the Panel. I checked in the file manager, and he said I actually opened these programs (I had 6 cases of execution of Excel), but they do not open and are just frozen on my screen.
    I tried xplorer2 download and access control by that Panel, and it froze AGAIN, although I could enter some of my files that I could not earlier.
    What can I do if I can't access control panel to remove things or to restore my system? Should I delete the MSOffice registers?

    Fixed! Ignore the previous message!

    It was something within the Office itself, which was to ruin. I ran the diagnostic tool of the Office she found an error of diagnosis, repaired, Office has been able to open (and then I had my Windows Explorer as well back function). Woohoo!
    For those who have similar problems, I did start > Microsoft Office > Microsoft Office Tools > Microsoft Office Diagnostics and he ran.
  • Firefox is configured as the default browser, but if I click on a link in MS Word, the link opens with MS Internet Explore. Why?

    Firefox is configured as the default browser, but if I click on a link in MS Word, the link opens with MS Internet Explore. Why?

    I have the same problem, but the difference is in the opening of the MS WORD hyperlinks to download documents (for example http://ntv.spbstu.ru/2011/hss_2011_3.pdf#page=145 ). This link wants to call MS IE.
    At the same time, all the HTML links are opened in FireFox.

    1. are you able to use with other applications that connect to the Internet?

    3. should we come up with any specific Web site?

    4. what version of Internet Explore do you use?

    5. don't you make changes to the computer until the problem occurred?

    6. the problem occurs in safe mode with networking?

    I suggest you follow the methods listed in order of appearance in the following Microsoft KB article:

    How to optimize Internet Explorer:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/936213/no

    Important: Reset Internet Explorer to its default configuration. This step will disable also any add-ons, plug-ins or toolbars that are installed. Although this solution is fast, it also means that, if you want to use one of these modules in the future, they must be reinstalled.

    For your reference: Internet Explorer could not open the Search Page.  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/219004

  • 'Open with' box appears for programs which should not need to open another program (Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, paint, etc.)

    Whenever I try to open a program (such as Internet Explorer, paint, etc.) one 'open with' appears. He never used to do and so I thought that programs such as those must be open with another program. I can't open anything because I don't know how to clear this check box so that these programs can do it themselves without a program.

    Hello Itbrau,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    After doing some research on your question, I found several different solutions. Not all of the work for all the world. I will list what I found for you.

    S ' ownership of the folder

    Appropriating the folder they are in, check your permissions (if there are special permissions have an eye on them). See if the folder inherits permissions from parent folders, make sure that the folder is accessible also.

    -Unlock

    Right-click on the file you want to open.

    Click on properties.

    On the general tab, at the end of the window, you should be able to see a security like this option: Security: this file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer.

    Click the Unlock button.

    Click on apply.

    -Uninstall the component of enhanced Internet Explorer security

    You can disable the security of Internet Explorer in the registry:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zonemap
    In the Details pane, right-click IEHarden, click on edit, type 0 (zero) in the value data box, and then click OK.

    If please reply back and let us know if this helps to help you access your programs.

    Sincerely,

    I can't open anything in my list of downloads. I tried to reset firefox and I also tried everything in your article "What to do if you are unable to download or save files" but nothing helps.
