Cannot open outlook... .icons disappeared, perhaps sys. files also tried restoring, no luck

I uninstalled a program called Flash Player free from GNU, and it took my files system with it. Now, some of my desktop icons won't work and will change to paint miniatures of program. My outlook express open used... error says "windows does not recognize this file etc... When I select a list, it will not always be open. Tried to change the outlook properties icon, but it will not change. In the Explorer, some say 'empty' and other files appear in blue! Lost my recovery disc. Tried system restore, but still no luck. Used the drive to factory settings, but they do not work.

    Hello

    Try this:

    1. open the run command via start-> run or press the Windows Logo + R on your keyboard.
    If you use Windows Vista or Windows 7, you can also open the Start Menu and use the search field to type to the next step.

    2. in the box you opened in step 1, type; Outlook.exe

    3 press the SPACEBAR once and then type a slash mark (/) followed by the switch that you want to use (see list below). For example, if you want to use resetnavpane the command you type in the Open box should look like this:
    Outlook.exe /resetnavpane (note the SPACE)

    4. to execute the command, click OK.

    or try a restore of the system before this happened

    http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

    If necessary do in safe mode

    1. Restart your computer.
    2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with theBoot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
    3. Select the Safe Mode option with the arrow keys.
    4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
    5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.

  • Cannot open the Canon 6 d Raw files in CS5. [was: Camera Raw / Photoshop is not compatible]

    Hello

    I just upgraded from a Canon 1000 d with a Canon 6 d, during shooting in raw and try to open it with photoshop, it says the camera raw is not compatible and it uses a different format, even if both devices have the CR2 file, I never had problems with my 1000 d. I have photoshop CS5 and have tried to update, but it still does not work. Someone knows how to fix this? I'm a photography student and my deadline is in 2 weeks, so I really need to get to this sorting asap! Advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    It uses a different format, even if both devices have the CR2 file

    CR2 is not a fixed file format. It varies with each camera model that make cannon. It is the same for all the camera manufacturers.

    New camera, new file Raw, same Raw file extension format model (CR2 = Canon, NAVE = Nikon, etc.).

    Devices supported by Adobe Camera Raw

    Camera Raw plugin and Adobe application compatibility

    The 1000 d is supported in Camera Raw 5.1 and later - compatible with CS4 and later. CS5 can open these Raw files.

    The 6 d is supported in Camera Raw 7.3 and later - compatible with CS6 and later. CS5 cannot open these Raw files.

    RAW support is never added retroactively to older versions of the Adobe software you will never be able to open files 6 d Raw in CS5.

    Options:

    1. Join the Cloud (Plan of photography) and get Photoshop CC 2015 + Lightroom CC 2015 for $10 / month (as long as your computer can run)
    2. Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all the 6 d to DNG Raw files, then change the DNG files in CS5. An extra step for you, but no extra costs.

    Cannot open the raw files from my Nikon D3200 in CS5

    This model requires Camera Raw 7.1 and CS5 can only take 6.7.1.You can download the 9.1 DNG Converter, and your raws can be converted to the dng format that your CS5 Adobe Camera Raw can handle.

    You go also to CS6 if it is within your means or obtained for the monthly Plan of $10 for Photoshop CC 2015 photography.
