Cannot access Windows Gadgets after upgrade to MSN Explorer

Original title: update MSN Explorer

I was doing a box of pop - up everyday or invites me to update my MSN Explorer browser.  I used to ignore and close Finally, I clicked Yes to upgrade.  Now I can not access the Windows Gadgets by right clicking and then clicking on "gadgets".  I also had a clock Gadgets Windows on my screen which disappeared since I did the upgrade to MSN Explorer.

Hi zepians,
1. what happens when you right-click on the desktop and clicks on gadget? The option is missing?
In the meantime, follow these steps.
Step 1:
a. click on start
b. click Control Panel
c. appearance and personalization
d and click 'restore the desktop gadgets installed with Windows.
 
This will bring up the window of the Gadgets from office with a message indicating "administrator installed gadgets and all the windows have been restored.
Step 2:
 
Perform a System Restore to the point that it worked fine. Next time you get a command prompt to install MSN explore update/upgrade, I would suggest that you check the option that says "don't show".

  • Cannot access Windows 7 after upgrading ram?

    I have a Toshiba satellite c670 - 10 p and bought 8 GB of ram for it (2 x 4 GB) and now I can't start Windows 7.

    I thought it might just be something in the settings of windows that was wrong, so I started my transplanted live USB (it worked well) and formsted my hard drive (NTFS) and now when I try to install windows 7 with my disk it gets to the windows startup screen and then stops.

    The gparted live USB worked as it was supposed to, its just windows that doesn't seem to work.

    I have reset my bios to factory default settings is as many other Internet sites told me, but I don't know what else to do.

    Help, please!

    (this is from memory, I bought: http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=7BABB8BDA5CA7304 )

    The memory you bought isn't compatible with your PC.

    Run: Memtest86 +.
    It runs from a floppy disk or CD and should eliminate or confirm if one or more of your memory
    sticks are bad or the values of the SPD in the BIOS are correct.
    Let it run for as long as you can: 2,4,6,8 or several hours (at least 3 full passes), so no errors at that time then your ram is OK.

  • Cannot access Windows Gadgets because the message only the administrator is permitted.

    Original title:

    I am logged on as administrator (only 1 person on this computer) but I get messages that only an administrator can access some files (for example the Windows Gadgets))

    I have Windows 7 Ultimate, only one person has this computer (me), I installed as admin (no other account on this computer).  Cannot access Windows Gadgets because the message only the administrator is permitted.  I AM THE ADMINISTRATOR!  Why is this happening?

    Hello

    1. you only receive the error message when you try to access the "Windows Gadgets"? What is the full error received?

    2 have you made any changes to the computer before the show?

    Method 1:

    Check if you are able to access to the files and programs into account administrator in safe mode.

    Start your computer in safe mode

  • Cannot install Windows 7 after upgrading to Windows 8

    I've upgraded to Windows 8 on an Asus U43Jc and I can't install Windows 8.1 on the store or iso (DXC1900101 - 0 x 20017 error), so I want to downgrade to 7. In addition, WIndows 8 crash with a Driver_Power_State_Failure. This is another reason why I want to downgrade. Whenever I try to downgrade, I get the blue screen of Windows 8 for a second then it resets. I even tried to use Hiren Boot CD to boot Windows 7 and still get the same results. This individual has Asus with Windows 7 not pre-installed so no boot UEFI or Secure Boot settings in the BIOS. Anyway, I don't want to be stuck on Windows 8 with it crashing every second. How can I downgrade to Windows 7?

    Your best course of action is to ask the ASUS recovery media:

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).

  • Error message: cannot access Windows Installer during the installation of Java SDK

    Original title: How To Install Windows Installer?

    OK, so I came to my laptop to do a writing in Word. Later, I tried to install the Java Development Kit, but he said something, of not being able to access Windows Installer. I ignored it and went to download a registry cleaner program to try to solve, but he also said "cannot access Windows Installer". Undertook research to install across the entire hard drive and the Windows registry and I found nothing. Not even the key MSIServer was there. I went to the Services and it was not there either. I opened my journal program, and he said that Microsoft Windows Installer has been deleted from the hard drive. The newspaper program that I use is open source and theres no script that writes, deletes, or replaces all files! So all I can do now is to install again, so I went to the Microsoft Download page: Windows Installer but when I tried to download mine)

    Windows6.0 - KB942288-v2 - x 86 .msu) he said first of all, "the search for updates...". "and then"update does not apply to your system. Any help would be appreciated!
