Cannot close the window or resize a window. None of the upper right buttons work.

I use windows vista and had a blue screen problem.  When it is retrieved, I couldn't resize any window or use the buttons on the right superior part (minimize, maximize, close x).  I can't access the services from the control panel. How can I fix this?

Hello

Make sure you have the latest vista drivers for your computer which you can get your computer manufacturers Web site

go to their website and look for a driver and software download section

Enter your model number for the last look drivers vista then download and install

also run the sfc/scannow command.

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

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:

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
  2. 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

If SFC detects the main problems it can't fix you may need to borrow a Microsoft dvd vista not an acer, HP etc. recovery disk and do a repair installation

  • On Windows 8, some widgets, such as the menu near the upper right button, stop working after awhile, and restored by restarting the PC.

    I use the latest versions of Firefox as soon as they are available on a PC in Windows 8. Firefox works fine, usually a few hours before the annoying problems manifest. The problem, that I address here is some widgets, including some widgets Firefox and widgets (such as buttons and selectors menu drop down) isolated in some sites stop functioning. In Firefox, the Menu button (the icon of three dashes stacked) stops working. And the download arrow sometimes stops working too. Sometimes, sub-items as printed stop working. A pull-down, the high and arrow down keys could still work even if I might now be able to select with the mouse. Closing and re-opening Firefox usually restores some functionality. However, I usually have to restart the PC to restore all the functions that has stopped working. So I'm good for usually a few hours yet. Another inconvenience, which others have addressed, is the appearance of Chinese characters - to research on the tab toolbar labels at the top. Restart Firefox gets rid of these for the moment. Thanks for the study.

    Philipp,
    Thanks for the quick reply and for the advice that you have presented.
    I downloaded and installed the graphics driver that you recommended. The process went well. I have hardware acceleration disabled by an earlier recommendation to remove these Oriental characters.
    After two days of problem apparently having been fixed, I considered replying to report success. But before I could get around to doing so, abnormal behaviors reappeared. Thanks for confirming the source of these Oriental characters. Previous research indicates that the source was with McAfee or Firefox, a bit like a battle for "pointing the finger" in between.
    Best,

  • Cannot close the bookmark sidebar

    I use FireFox on Windows XP SP3.

    I chose a bookmark in the bookmark drop down menu. Instead open a new tab, the URL to the bookmark opened in the bookmark sidebar to the left of the main tab content.

    Now, I can't close or destroy the Bookmark sidebar. It takes a lot of the screen and it's very frustrating that I can't close or minimize.

    Please let me know if you have any tips on what to do to get rid of him.

    Thank you.

    Update:

    I was able to close the sidebar by selecting the menu item view > sidebar > bookmarks. So, the problem is almost solved. However, I wasn't able to get the sidebar to close by selecting the x in the upper right of the sidebar. There seems to be a bug in this mechanism to close the sidebar.

    Thank you.

    Bookmarks that open in the sidebar is the default value for the bookmarks created via a link or a button on a Web site to add a bookmark for this site.

    • Check the properties of a bookmark using the context menu in the side bar (Ctrl + B; Cmd + B on Mac).
    • In the Bookmark Manager (Bookmarks > show all bookmarks) you can click on the button more in the lower details pane on the right.
    • Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected (uncheck it).
  • What is the fourth control button in the upper right window of 4 FF?

    I had to reinstall FF4 during cleanup of virus and there is now a 4-button control displayed in the upper right of the window. From the right, there are the usual 'close' (red), 'Restore down' and 'Minimize' buttons (the two blue), and then there is a fourth, the green button, with no 'ToolTip' that are associated with. What is the attitude of this new button?
    I'm not normally this curious, but I had just a fight against malware 'Antivirus Antispam 2011' and am very sensitive to the new graphics that I don't recognize.
    I am running XP Pro.

  • Cannot close the command line

    Whenever I run a command prompt on my Windows 7 laptop, the only so he can close when I'm done, is to restart the computer. I know there must be a way out of this thing.  In addition, I am a blind person, and it is quite possible that I don't see a button or similar on the screen that can close the prompt. I use a screen reader program, but it does detect all of the elements that would allow me to close it.  Any help will be appreciated, I need to find this answer.

    Further to Zig - Zag reply: by clicking on the X in the upper right of the command line would also work (although in your case, type the word out would be simpler).

    Does anyone know why my pc W7 cannot close the creative cloud application when I stopped my pc?

    This seems like a minor issue, so I recommend leaving her alone and allowing victory to force her to stop.

    You can also open your Preferences cc dialog box and not start cc when you connect if this prompt mind.  Just run the application cc, at most once a month.

  • What trigger is fired when the user closes a Web via cross sign which is in the upper right

    Dear all,

    I have a form that requires a separate canvas. Please tell me what trigger is fired when user close a canvas via cross sign that exists in the upper right (the sign of the cross appear as the corresponding window contains the property of: close the permit YES).

    Concerning

    Rajat

    Never heard of a trigger key to closing.

    As they said above, when you close a window, CLOSING of WINDOW-WHEN trigger fires.

    There you can examine the value of the: system.event_window, which bears the name of the window that fired the trigger.

    A typical use of this must publish a Do_Key ('EXIT_FORM') in your when relaxation window closed

    You don't need to check the: system.event_window, you can have several KEY-RELEASE triggers at various levels if necessary and they will attack the function of closing the window.

    Hello MilaRowantree, can you try to start firefox in safe mode by pressing the SHIFT key during startup of this and see if the problem occurs there too? Maybe a theme or hardware acceleration intrudes here...

    If safe mode does not work, you can try to disable hardware acceleration in firefox > options > advanced > general and or disable addons that could cause the problem. It would also be interesting what graphics hardware (description of the adapter, driver date and version of the driver) you use - you can access this information in firefox > help > correct information to the bottom of this page...

  • The middle in the top right button will not reduce the size of the mailbox

    Try to reduce the size of the area of content in an e-mail message.  When you use the middle button in the upper right corner, it will not change.  He remains in the configuration contents of full page.

    Any window that you want to resize all the time must be the last closed window.

    Take the corners of the window and drag it to the desired size. Do not use to maximize or restore down. Close all other windows first via the taskbar and the latter. Windows will remember the size of the last closed window the next time that you open the program.

  • Black square in the upper right corner of the monitor

I can't remove it (looks like he wants to view webcam or continuous) but it shows nothing, blocks from the screen and I don't know what I've insisted on it to appear and cannot be removed, someone at - it ideas please

    Hello

    ·        The black square appears every time that you restart the computer?

    ·        This occurs in safe mode?

    Method 1:

    Start in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

    a. restart and keep tapping F8 until you reach the start option.

    b. Select safe mode from the list and check if the problem still persists.

    After safe mode, I suggest you perform a clean boot. Follow method 2.

    Method 2:

    Maybe the General information that runs on the system causes this problem. I suggest you do a clean boot and see if the problem is resolved.

    a. log on to the computer using an account with administrator rights

    b. Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue

    c. under the general tab, click Selective startup and then click to clear the check box load startup items. (The check box use the file Boot is not available.)

    d. on the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all

    Note: Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.

    a. When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    b. Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

    c. under the general tab, click the Normal startup option and then click OK.

    d. When you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

    If the problem is solved, check which third-party program is causing the problem. For more information, see the article mentioned below.

  • The history icon is not in "three vertacle dash" icon in the upper right corner. Where is he?

    On my Firefox page there is no menu history in the "three vertical dash" button on the upper right corner of my Firefox page. What happened to him? The things that I am saying go to the button and click history, who's not here.

    He should be here, with an icon that looks like a clock.

    If it is moved, you can try to use customize it to find. There should be a button to customize at the bottom of the menu again.

    If you don't have time to search around between the toolbars, you can also use the classic menu bar temporarily: press the Alt key to display it at the top of the window.

  • How can I move starting from the upper right of the screen in the lower left corner of the screen?

    For some reason, I accidentally hit a button that my Start Microsoft button moved to the upper right of the screen. I'd rather start at the bottom left of the screen. Please notify.

    Thank you.

    Sorry, this isn't a problem of Firefox support. The Start button is part of the Windows XP operating system.
