  that close I mean open the window (white pages) Please help

  Hello
   
  1. could you give us the exact error message?
  2 - is a problem on all the Windows Explorer you open? Or it is specific to particular program windows?
   
   
  Method 1.
  Let us scan SFC and check that it prevents this error to occur.
  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/scannow
  The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
   
  More information on SFC scan found in this document:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833
   
  Method 2.
  Stage I.
  a. restart your computer.
  b. when the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information tap the F8 on your keyboard key repeatedly until you are presented with the screen Windows Vista Advanced Boot Options.
  c. using the arrow keys, select the desired option of Mode without failure.
  d. press the Enter key on your keyboard to start in safe mode of Windows Vista.
  e. when Windows starts, you will be at a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and the Windows Vista goes into safe mode.
  f. do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.
   
  Stage II.
  If it works fine in safe mode try performing a clean boot in order to find the cause root.
  See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.
  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
  Note: When the diagnosis is complete do not forget to reset the computer to a normal startup. Follow step 7 in the above article.

• Chrome browser adwares / malwares?  Cannot close the window

  Hello
  I'm trying to help my mother to troubleshoot remotely.  She has a Mac Mini running El Capitan 10.11 and she seems to have some sort of malicious infection?

  I enclose a photo of its Chrome browser window - she can't close Chrome and if she did a restart it back just to the same window.

  We did download and run Avast free Mac Security (oops - probably should have checked here everything first).  The scan has not fixed the problem.

  Should reset us the router?  Any help is appreciated!

  

  No malware was installed or downloaded.

  It is simply a Javascript in the browser designed to trick people by dialing a phone number and give criminals access to your computer so that they can steal money.

  Force quit chrome.

  Restart it in now shift clicking on the chrome icon.

  Clear cookies and cache of the browser.

• Firefox 4 does not not with Javascript. Cannot close the window. Any ideas?

  I first noticed the problem in my website, but now other sites. When I open a window and try to press the button to shut it down, it does not work. Code is: javascript:window.close();
  He worked in the previous version of Firefox, but not since I loaded 4.0. I tried it in Explorer and it works fine.

  Looks like they need to be updated to work with FF4.

  There are a few other extensions in the same flavor here that may be an alternative: Google toolbars

• El capitan cannot move all windows to new desktop PC via mission control?

  Before moving to El Capitan, I used to be able to move all open windows in any program given to a new office in total.

  for example assume I have Stickies and Safari opened in the same space, I want to spend all my notes at the same time to a new office space and let Safari; I used to be able to slide just with 3 fingers to show all programs open in this space and click on Stickies icon and drag it to a new space. Now, I can just drag a single sticky both. Obviously, this is just one example, the same applies to any other program with multiple items open at once.

  Am I missing something, or this option is simply gone?

  Thank you

  I have not tested but make sure that 'Windows group by application' are enabled in the settings of Mission control.

• cannot close, resize or minimize windows.

  That's the problem as described by deborahhughes.

  I can't close or minimize a window by using the icons in the upper right of the window.
  I resize or move any window.
  I can not get a right-click pop - up to work on the set of the low program.
  I don't get any error code or the message.  Nothing happens

  I CAN close a window using alt - f4, file > exit or using master.

  Other problems that may or may not be related.

  When I try to open the Device Manager and many other programs of the Control Panel, I get a small box labeled "Microsoft Management Console" that says: "cannot create document empty."    This box will have a button at the bottom to click, but it is empty.   These white buttons also appear in several other boxes pop up.

  There are 3 updates of windows usually trying to install when I start but never go beyond 0% installed and, finally, exhale and return to the previous settings.

  I am running Vista Home Premium Service pack 1

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

  I found the answer that fixed all my problems.

  The basics are that you will find a hidden file under the name of "user32.dll.mui" in C:\windows\system32\en_US
  and replace it with a copy of the file in another location on the disk or a copy under a different name as 'user32copy.dll.mui' or ' user32 (2).dll.mui'.
  I found that my original "user32.dll.mui" file was empty and one that I have found elsewhere on the disk was about 17 k in size.

  You will need to follow the detailed instructions include take "ownership" of the file before, it can be renamed, but it worked for me.

• Cisco Security Agent cannot close port 135/tcp on Windows hosts

  Hello

  I met with the problem that Cisco Security Agent cannot close port 135/TCP on PC windows (XP or Win7).

  I configured the network access control module to prevent all client/server connections to port tcp/135 of the rule.

  I checked my police using nmap, so this port (TCP/135) 20 minutes shows as filtered and I see connect event monitor on the CSA MC, over the next 20 minutes he see as open and no newspaper doesn't show. (not exact time, then it maybe 30 minutes or 5, this varies)

  Can someone explain how TCP/135 works and it is possible to close it using the CSA?

  Thanks in advance

  There is another question for the same problem on the forums (see: CSA 6.0.2.145 problem with windows firewall 7). I wrote: -.

  "I advanced and tested in the laboratory with winXP and CSA 602-149 (later). I've defined a rule with DENY tcp/135 and ran the nmap and reports of open (wireshark performances to the syn syn - ack). I changed it to a REFUSAL of PRIORITY and now closed nmap reports (wireshark shows restore the syn). Through the CLI, netstat - a watch the pc listening on tcp/135 & disabling the syn CSA Gets the syn - ack response. For me, this means a few flaws. 1: DENY should block tcp135 syn & 2: CSA does not send reset (it needs to be reset). Is it possible to open a TAC case and put my name (mwinnett) in it, and I'll open a defect. »
