Cannot change the discovery network
I can't change the network discovery setting making it impossible to find a printer wireless etc.
I found a few things here, but they did not work
I tried to start the browser of the computer and put in automatic and start the service.
I get the following error
Windows cannot start the computer on Local computer browser service
Error 1060 than this specific service does not exist as an installed service.
Is there somewhere I can install it?

Good for laptop - cannot change the ISP; keep returning to a previous provider
Windows 7 laptop of my grandson, I'm migrating FIREFOX (excellent resource!) of my aging XP desktop. An existing Mozilla installation on the guarded device tries to connect to an ISP in Sydney (1000km) which kept out, I guess because the signal is too weak. Too far - on the Internet?
Reinstalled my new ISP contact, reinstalled a fresh copy of Firefox, copied the old profile XP (just underneath the random string file name), but cannot change the fault. Firefox at startup tries to raise the old ISP (Sydney) and expires, and then allowing me to establish a manual connect with the ISP (my current) new.
Perhaps a clue: in my Firefox troubleshooting info, change preferences, the browser start page is the address of 'old', with 'override mstone' ignore, what look like prints of registry entries, but I can't change all that - and maybe it's wise! An annoying secondary question: on arrival, the laptop listed no administrator user. So I am me came as an administrator, but I wonder if a past or current even Admin hidden could register (or other) entered resistant to change.Late discovery: the laptop is apparently infected with browser pirate btsearch.name. Search Google throws a series of removal procedures, and I'm now working through them.
What Miss me?Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:
- Microsoft safety scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- Anti-Rootkit utility - TDSSKiller
- AdwCleaner (for more information, see this other AdwCleaner download page)
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.

Cannot change the name of the file in the file properties.
Original title: Cannot change the file properties
Some downloaded files have a value in the box "title" under the details (after clicking Properties)
I can't remove this 'title' and it appears so when I share the file on my network.
The file is located on a portable hard drive, but I tried to move some files from problem to my office to see if I could solve these problems there, but nothing has worked.I already have
-taking possession of the object
-allows full control for all users
-tried to use the "attrib - r + s' function
-among other...I just want to know if there is a way to change the details of the file. On another windows help page it says something along the lines of "some attributes cannot be changed" I hope this isn't the case.
Any help at all would be great, if no additional information is needed let me know.
Thank youThis information is set when the file is created. Windows has no native ability to change. You need a third party program. For example, see link below. Note that I have no idea if it's any good or works in Windows 7. Gives you the link just to get an example of what to look for.

Windows FirewallWhen I stop the Windows Firewall service, I can activate the sharing I want. Of course the windows firewall prevents sharing I would do on my network.
I'm uncomfortable with Miss having a firewall work on my computer. How to configure my Win 7 machine windows firewall to allow communications with my homegroup? I tried to restore the default values. This did not allow the communication. I tried to find the homegroup settings in the advanced settings of the windows firewall. No luck there.
What should I do to configure my windows firewall to allow network discovery and file sharing of printers and media streaming and sharing?
Hi stephanie,.
Thanks for joining us out on Microsoft Community Forums.
Looks like the Windows firewall prevents the discovery network, files and printers, sharing, public sharing of files and streaming media. We will analyze and identify the cause of the problem.
You have a third-party antivirus installed on the computer program?
Method 1:
To turn on network discovery
1. Open advanced sharing settings by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type network, click Network and sharing Center, and then, in the left pane, click on change settings for sharing advanced.
2. click on the chevron to expand the current network profile.
3. click turn on network discovery and then click on save changes. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide
confirmation.The article below explains all about the network discovery:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/enable-or-disable-network-discoveryIf any of these responses not solve the issue, let us then run the sfc scan and check if any file system is corrupt. I also recommend to perform a clean boot in order to find the root cause of the problem.
Method 2:
Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:
a. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, 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 on allow.
b. type the following command and press ENTER:
sfc/scannowThe sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

OK, this problem beautifully undescriptive I've seen caused by what seems to be dozens of things happening for me.
I made the mistake of horrible update my FC8 kernel to the latest one (2.6.26.8 - 57.fc8). Mind you, that's all that's changed. It was with a 1.06 server with happiness and perfectly good computers running virtual in use before the upgrade.
After the new kernel and reboot, I had to rebuild vmmod. I had to get a fix of any - any later that I used with my previous kernel (116 does not solve the problem of compiling) so I used all-any117d. Update like a champion.
Try to turn on a VM and Ihanta!, the above error.
Nothing else was changed.
I tried the upgrade to VMware Server 1.08. Used all-new any117d - update OK.
Error again.
I have re-run the compilation, this time to say 'yes' to what the installation script to "adjust the permissions of all virtual machines in xxxlist" or whatnot.
Error again.
status of /etc/init.d/VMware
Networking networking on/dev/vmnet0 is running
Invited only on/dev/vmnet1 network is running
Network invited only on/dev/vmnet8 is running
NAT networking on/dev/vmnet8 is running
Responsible vmmon module
Loaded module Vmnet
FWIW, I compile as long as root, but have always run VMware server from my UID nonroot.
What now?
I'm in the same boat. Fedora 8 2.6.26.8 - 57.fc8 #1 SMP
I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling v1.0.6 thru 1.0.8 with all 116 updates and 117d. 117D compiles with every version of server but when I try to turn on a virtual computer I get this error.
Cannot change the power state of virtual machine: the process has exited with an error:
vmxvmdb: name of the Index generated by the configuration file
POST (no connection): Version mismatch with vmmon module: expected 138.0, obtained 168.0.
You have a bad version of the module kernel "vmmon.
Try reinstalling VMware Server.
POST (no connection): failed to initialize the surveillance apparatus.
Failed to initialize the virtual machine.
End of the error message.
I found several posts other people have this problem but
they are months with no recent activity and nothing that solved the problem. I found appeared
to get a fix, one updated the all an update that corrects the problem for
2.6.26 performing several nuclei, but the link for the update on TI-psycho appears to be dead. Here is the link to the discussion
http://Fedoraforum.org/Forum/showthread.php?t=199026&page=2
Of course, I would like to know how to solve this problem as well.
Thank you

Cannot change the Google search bar

I have deleted history, deleted all the data of the Web site, disconnected plugins and extensions, deleted the cache via the menu Developer. I used 3 CleanMyMac to clear and reset everything. I can't solve the problem.
