• Cannot download plug in for windows media player. Have used the site to download and it says it worked, but the plug-in does not appear on my list of plug-ins.

  I tried to hear an appeal of a Web conference. Received a message, necessary plug windows media. Check my plug ins, no windows media. Reading about firefox support tutorial. Clicked on download. Had a window that requires repair or change. Tried to fix it and then change. Need better guidance on how to finish download. Download the message passed, but after firefox closing and re-opening, no still no plug-in for windows media in the list of plug-ins. Go to site and could not hear Conference.
  Reading support forum. Message while using about: config. Tried, typed in on: config in Start menu, but do not see anything that looked like I could change for real like message said.
  solved by opening internet explore and go to the website and listen to the conference call on windows media player. There was a message saying: If you want to enable media player click here. Not so heard Conference.
  Tried using chrome. You have to listen to the Conference yesterday. Today, he had the same message you need to plug in when I tried to follow the instructions in connect, it was just as confusing and useless like firefox. Most is that I tried to make any statement in the suggestions forum for firefox and can not get the windown media connect to appear in my list of plug-ins and can not hear calls for conference on firefox.
  Chrome said that they worked on connect available to the chrome store.
  I agree with the comments that I was able to go to web sites and to hear the calls before firefox did an update that removed my windows media plug. The fix simple download, two from windows, does not, apparently because firefox cannot find the fix. This isn't for lack of user, and it seems that windows attempted to provide a fix, and firefox does not recognize.
  Bottom line, it is easier to use another browser, that trying to get windows connect multimedia player installed on firefox. What is a browser, if you can not hear an appeal on the Web site the browser will take you to? Please make it easy install windows media branch on firefox. Thank you..

  If you get the screen to change/repair, it means that the Setup program has detected that you have already installed the plugin.

  Do you not see the file here:

  C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\Plugins
  

  Its file name is: np - mswmp.dll

  If the file is missing, I suggest to delete and then reinstall the plugin.

  Edit: By removing and then reinstalling I mean using the delete button under the modification and repair buttons in the Setup program, and then run Setup to reinstall.

  Original title: download error

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

  It seems that you have problems with downloading files on the windows vista computer.

  The description of the problem seems a little unclear and I wish I had a better understanding before you start working on it. I would appreciate if you can help me with the following information.

  1. what browser you use on the computer?

  2. What is the exact full error message?

  3. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?

  4. deal with this problem if you try to download all files from online?

  If you do this in the face of Internet Explorer help, I suggest that you should change the default download location and check if it helps.

  Method 1

  In internet explorer, you can change the default location.

  Here's how:

  a. open internet explorer.

  b. click on Tools , then select view downloads.

  c. downloads for window, click Options.

  d. now, enter the default download location and click on the OK button.

  Turn on the computer at the beginning of boot and check if the problem persists.

  Method 2

  Perform a clean boot to see if no third-party service is causing the problem.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Note: follow step 3 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.

• Cannot download the updates of Windows, or indeed all Microsoft downloads

  I recently bought a refurbished Dell Optiplex DX270 with XP Pro SP3 preinstalled. About a week later your beautiful auto update destroyed and I had an endless loop. After a lot of messing around and discussion with the supplier, I decided to re - install Windows using the recovery disk because there was very little on the machine.

  This started the following problem. Whenever I try to download updates or anything from Microsoft, I get the can't access to this message.

  After another 2 days of internet seaching and following instructions for this problem, that I still get nowhere, except that I have downloaded a lot of so-called patches using my laptop, then transferred to the Dell by using a memory stick.

  I'm about fed up with this now, as the refurbished PC was supposed to speed up my work and prevent me from having to use an old PC that reboots whenever it receives the inclination (usually in the middle of creating complex spreadsheets). Instead, I spend a lot of time that I could be making money, by sorting the MS caused me problems!

  I followed the advice on another thread to run WGA and display the results in the WGA forum, only to be told by the moderator of this forum that I should ask the question in the present case. The merry-go-round continues.

• Cannot download Microsoft Update on Windows 7 built-in

  We run Windows 7 Embedded on some POS registers and I need to add some other Microsoft updates for the Windows Update process. When I click the link it will not download. I don't know the reason for this is due to the very limited network, records must be on for the PCI compliance. I need one of the two below to be able to work around this problem, because we cannot take them outside the restricted network.

  1. Download an installation file that I can put on a USB key to install manually on each register.
  2. Get IP address, just the Setup file of Microsoft Update to enable on my network.

  Download all the updates of windows and installation of install through automatic updates. It's just getting to look for the other Microsoft updates is a problem.

• Cannot download files exe on Windows server

  I can not download exe on Firefox installed on Windows server 2003 files. I don't know that it's because of security Windows/IE "features." This does not work under Firefox 3.5, you can add a parameter to ignore these, but for some inexplicable reason with 3.6.
  Is it possible to force Firefox 3.6 to ignore the Windows/IE security settings? Otherwise, I'll need to come back to 3.5 or use IE.

  There are ways around it in Firefox 3.5 and Firefox 4, but not in Firefox 3.6. Firefox 3.6, you need to change the security settings in Internet Explorer - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737

• HP 15 laptop: cannot download Google Chrome on Windows 8.1 / new laptop HP

  Hi, I just bought this new laptop HP TODAY ' TODAY - and tried to download Google Chrome and set Google as my homepage because I work with Google products for the last 5 years and this is my preference.

  However, as a first step, I get a message saying that I can't download Chrome, even though I checked the download is for Windows 8.1, then it has also triggered a virus infection and caused the security software do a scan of threat - three times!  Trying to just set Google as my home page, when I click on the button 'create' real, the screen freezes simply.

  It's almost as if Yahoo / HP does not allow me to choose my browser and search engine... anyone know how to fix this?   I've never had this happen before.

  Thank you!!!

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

  In this particular case, HP and Yahoo keep the computer to become the Chrome browser. Especially when you mentioned that triggered security a software alarm, this means that most likely you tried to download a fake copy of the Chrome browser and thanks be to God, the security software has prevented to install. It is quite common nowadays because it's popular software and impersonations exist. They sometimes appear on the top of the search result in the search engines, and they do not lead to the site from another server but the official seller.  In addition, if this is not the case, your computer may also have already been infected by certain pests that redirect your traffic to fake Chrome.

  There is only one official place to download this product - official site of Google/sub-sub-site

  Click here-online https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html and choose the blue download Chrome button in the middle of the page

  Follow the instructions on the screen.

  A few additional instructions to Google-> https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95346?hl=en

  Here are some other instructions how to set up the home page in Internet Explorer
