What do you mean by "default folders"?

Give an example of a hidden folder that you want to change.

In general, you can remove the attribute "hidden" right-clicked on a file, select 'Properties' and unchecking 'hidden '.  Do not pay attention to the 'read only' box for folders.  It does not mean what you think it means.

  • Cannot change the sidebar folder options

    You know the side bar, with its Favorites and others? Well, I can't add anything to this file from Favorites. Nor can I change the download location (which is the default "downloads"); Every time darn, I download anything, I click on the small arrow to the left of the address bar and select "desktop" or something else. Not a chore, I know, but certainly a nuisance. In addition, I want as much control over the computer that I can, and it does not help. Thank you very much.

    You can drag a Favorites folder and drop and it will appear here

    Drag it to the Favorites or the star text near him, not on the elements
    To change the default download directory
    1. Open the office, press Windows key + R type all iexplore and press enter
    2. Simultaneously press Ctrl + J
    3. Click on Options
    4. Click Browse
    5. Select the folder you want your downloaded files in, and then press OK

  • HPDM 4.6 SP2 - cannot change the screen resolution Options

    Hello

    every time when I try to change the resolution of the screen via HPDM (task "Apply settings" or directly as a command in "Files and records"), I get the following errors:

    * task failed

    * command line error

    Original messages:

    2015-01-05 14:35:02 von implement common-task fehlgeschlagen.

    2015-01-05 14:35:02 Fehlercode: 14004022, Fehlerdetails: Befehlszeilenfehler.

    The same command (-C:\Windows\xpeagent\setw7disp.exe width = 1440 height = 900 depth = 32 = 60 rate) - run commandline works very well. Other tools such as qres.exe does not work. Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

    Concerning

    Thomas

    Thank you for your quick response.

    I think that this problem is resolved. The version of the agent is ok, but the combination of resolution, depth and refresh was bad for our display. With the right value, it works.

    Thank you

    concerning

    I signed on XP Pro SP3 as an administrator but you cannot change the timing of Windows Update to 03:00.  All options are not enabled.  How can I change the time that updates are made?

    Hi imoffshore,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    We would like to get some more information from you to help solve your problem. You better, please answer the following questions.

    ·         When was the last time it worked?

    ·         Remember to make changes to the computer recently?

    ·         You have security software installed on the computer?

    ·         You get the error message?

    When you open the tab automatic updates in the control panel or My Computer property sheet, all options of configuration of the automatic updates may be grayed out. This happens due to one of the following reasons:

    1. You are not logged as administrator (or equivalent)
    2. Strategy of automatic updates is enabled
    3. Automatic updates (and Windows Update) access is blocked by group policy

    The options available for automatic updates.

    You must make some changes in the windows registry.

    Important: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  • Cannot change the folder name of the user, i.e. the C:\Users\user name (folder name)

    I got a new computer w/Windows 7, but Set - up guy was working on 2 computers and put the wrong name in this machine slot 'username '.  All seeking answers to correct (my machine automatically books with my ADMIN correct name but doesn't let me change an incorrect name in the USER file), I came across this on VISTA.  It also applies to Windows 7?

    "What you see is the reference in the"C:\Users\user name"folder. While you can change the registered owner and the name of the user account, you cannot change the name of the folder 'C:\Users\user name'. The only way to do this is to create a new admin account and delete the one in a new. »

    If the solution IS identical to that of Vista, the instructions on the following link apply?

    Yes, the solution is identical to that of Vista, and apply the instructions at this link.

    Create a new account with the correct name and delete the old account.  If you wish, save the old account during erasing files and copy them into the new account.

  • Cannot change the Google search bar

    In Safari, I go to Google.com and do a google search. So far so good.

    Now, on the search results page, I try to edit the search in the Google search bar and nothing happens - the Google search bar is totally insensitive. To do another search, I use the address bar in Safari or reload google.com.

    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.

    'CleanMyMac' is a scam and a frequent cause of instability and poor performance. Depending on which version you have, the developer's instructions may not completely uninstall. Please follow these instructions, then do as below.

    Please, back up all data before proceeding.

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select this option:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent.plist

    Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

    Repeat with this line:

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    You may also delete one or more of these elements in the same way:

  • 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 Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.
