Cannot set a default website in Google Chrome

Hello

Cannot set the default Web site in Google Chrome.  IE has been simply to go to the top of the page of google/right click / check the menu/internet options / and choose URL [google.com] to start by default.

It is impossible for me to understand or to find the way to do the same for Google Chrome.  I just want to open google.com when I click on the Google Chrome icon.  Please notify.

Thank you

Joe

  • Cannot access site of firefox or google chrome on linux but can virtual XP on the same machine

    Run firefox 3.6.24 under Fedora core 14 64-bit. Could not load certain pages of the website with firefox or google chrome schoolfusion. I do not found Server error. On the same machine a virtual XP with IE or chrome can access the site. I checked the release of wireshark and the query is DNS as well as a good answer to the query or the dns returns the correct ip address. So I don't understand why the server error. On the same website, a link that works starts with 2 identical DNS queries, both get identical answers. There are a few settings network under linux only?
    I have an internet direct connect without a proxy.
    I tried all of the suggestions under Server error.

    Thank you

    It is "fixed" now, it turns out that the problem was that URLS that wouldn't have. It's a dash followed by a period.

    What I still don't understand, is why the error message was not clear. He said that he could not find the server but it reported the entire string, including the... There was therefore no indication as to why he could not find the server. It was also strange that IE and google chrome in XP both worked.

  • Cannot set a default printer

    This comes in our helpdesk today, and I have absolutely no idea on how to solve this problem.

    -The client has just had new printer Lexmark Pro 915 installed.  Can correctly print a test page for the properties of the printer.
    -Cannot print from Excel.  It is said that no printer is found.
    -L' printer is not marked as default.  When I try to set the default printer, nothing happens.
    -No printer cannot be set as default.  When you try to do, nothing happens.
    -L' printer is connected and coming as "ready".  Still, test page prints fine.
    -Tried to uninstall the old unused printers from Add/Remove programs.  Restarted the computer.  No effect.
    -Tried to uninstall, reboot, and reinstall the printer Lexmark Pro 915.  Behaves in the same way (tried to settle before removing administrator rights, so by default).
    -Tried to completely close down the computer, unplug and remove the battery, but once it has restarted, he always had the same problem.  No printer can be set as default.
    -L' printer is still recognized by the computer, but it is not the default.  In some programs (Notepad, IE), it can always print, although he must select manually.  In Word and Excel, the old printer which has since been completely uninstalled still appears as the default.  In Word, the printer by default only presents itself as a blank line, but you can select the printer in a menu drop-down.  In Excel, it leaves no him print at all, saying that no printer is found.  It does allow him to select a printer.  It is a big problem since Excel is the program that it needs to be able to print from most.

    The machine in question is a Tablet from Lenovo under Windows XP SP3 x 86. Thank you

  • Cannot set the default printer.

    I'm having a problem with one of the users on my setup of server companies. She is unable to set a default printer and cannot print from Excel 2010 to all. However, while on the terminal even when I login as administrator, everything works perfectly. I tried to set a default value manually through the registry, I tried all of the scripts that I can find, I tried to uninstall and reinstall the printers. I don't know where to go from here. Any advice?

    It's a 2003 server.
    The terminal is running XP.
    Printers are all non-local network.
    However, the result is the same for a local printer.

    Hi Cameron LUM,

    Your question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for the IT Pro TechNet public. Please post your question in the TechNet Windows server forum.

  • HP LaserJet Pro MFP M125-M126: cannot set the default printer

    Hello

    We have HP LaserJet Pro M125 - M126 PCLmS network MFP all in one printer, as the installation of all users was a success and was working fine the day of installation, after a day all users face the question cannot set default pritner, cannot print, all users are faced with question at a time ,

    quick response is appreciated,

    Hi @darshan9 ,

    I see that you have problems affecting the default printer for users and you cannot print over the network.
    I'd love to help you.

    Do you mean the configuration of individual computers with the printer on the network users, or a computer with multiple users?

    You have administrative rights on the computer to make changes?

    What is the name and the product number of your printer? How can I find my model number or product number?

    Download and run the Print and Scan doctor. It will diagnose the problem and could solve it automatically. http://www.hp.com/go/tools > using HP diagnostic tools for printers under Windows HP.

    I suggest you to check if you have another account user or an administrative account.

    I also suggest to create a new user account and check if you are able to set the default printer.

    Create a user account. Create a user account.

    If you're still having problems, run the Fixit tool. Diagnose and automatically fix problems printing and printer.

    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

    If there is anything else I can help you, let me know.

    Good day!

  • Cannot set the default printer. error 0 X 00000709

    Hi all

    Cannot set any printer as the default printer. An error message appears, error 0 X 00000709. I have tried to use a guide on the Forums, on the Windows system registry, still does not work. And I couldn't print anything using the PDF, but Words of Microsoft Excel and Notepad are able to print.

    Hi Aaron,

    I appreciate your efforts to solve the problem.

    What is the brand and model of the printer?

    This problem can occur if the wires that are not connected correctly, due to corruption drivers, drivers incompatible, if print spooler service is not started, because of problems with the printer and the printer, missing updates settings.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to run the fixit and check if it helps.

    Diagnose and automatically fix problems printing and printer
    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/printing_problems/

     

    Method 2:
    If the problem persists, I suggest you temporarily disable the security software of the computer and check.

    Disable the antivirus software.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

     

    Method 3:
    If the problem persists, I suggest you try the procedure described in the article and see if it helps.

  • Cannot set a default to open files jpeg, png or gif PS CS5?

    Installed upgraded to PS CS4 CS5 on a 32-bit W7 system. When trying to open the jpg, png or gif PS CS5 is not listed in the Open with drop and cannot be set as default for opening jpg, png or gif files.  It is an option to open with or set as the default program with the psd, bmp, tiff. At the opening of CS5, I can open any type of graphic file. I want CS5 default to open any graphics files. I uninstalled and reinstalled CS5 with no resolution.

    How can I do this?

    Make sure you have administrator rights on your PC, this is one thing that will prevent you from changing.

    The only other thing I can offer is in the bridge.

    Edit > prefrences click file type associations, and then click Reset default.

    Once done, you will have to restore all the where you want. I had to do this when I installed CS5 cause he was looking for a different application whenever I tried to open the images...

    I have reset and then reinstalled Photoshop to allow him to enter its default applications.

  • Cannot set the default email in apple mail client

    Hi all

    I have a rather unusual problem. I'm on El captain, and I have 16 Mac Office installed (Outlook).

    When I go in my OS X mail client, and go to Preferences-> general-> default mail reader, it shows currently Outlook.

    When I go ahead and select Mail and then close the window and then return the preferences window, it switches back to Outlook.

    I can't set mail as my default mail client, which also live up to my sheet on part of Safari options (shows Outlook, no email).

    Is there another way in the system to set my default mail client, which will remain?

    I went the Outlook preferences, and there is no option to be found to set or no set Outlook as the default e-mail client. Strange.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    D

    You can also set this option in Outlook preferences. Try here. I don't have the app to check where, but I think it is located on the general tab.

  • Cannot set the default mail Client

    All,

    I have Office for Mac 2016 installed on my Mac Mini. When I go in the Mail from Mac client to set the default value for Outlook he selects fine, but then when I exit the application and go back inside, he returned back to Mac Mail?

    Assistance to get this resolved would be greatly appreciated!

    I'm under El Capitan 10.11.2 - the latest updates everything up ;-)

    Although the problem is not the same, please follow the instructions in this article to support to reset the launch Services database. Instead of typing the shell command in the article, I suggest that you copy and paste the web page in the Terminal window. Make sure you only select the entire line. One way to do that is triple - click anywhere in the line.

    If you do not already have a current backup, back up all data before proceeding. You should perhaps log out or restart to see a change.
