Change icons Windows 7 for link associations

In Windows 7, most of the icons on the desktop and the start menu changed to associations link (lnk) internet explorer, at the same time and apparently by themselves.  When I click on one, it opens the Explorer, then a warnoing window download prompting me to save or execute a *.lnk from a c:\ directory location.  I've read through the questions related to this topic, but none seem to match exactly.  When I try to restore to an earlier date, I get say an error message "these data are incorrect (0x8007000D)" message for each restore date I chose.

This situation exists for the user, but not for the administrator.  Help is appreciated.

Hello

Reset the lnk - files shortcut link (LNK).

    Go to the web site of the manufacturer of the computer support and see if they have the list of device drivers for Windows XP for the exact model of your computer number. If they do not have drivers then you know that XP is supported for your computer.

  • How can I change my Windows CS5 for Mac license?

    I contacted the service Adobe customer on July 25 to discuss my transition from Windows to Mac.  I asked on downloads for my CS5 and my Lightroom 2.  I shared that I was to move from operating systems and that he wanted to know what I would do in advance to make sure I'd be ready to go when I got my new computer.  I sent a link in the chat for my two products.  Today, I went to download and they do not work - they are windows-based.  After 22 minutes of slow response time, I was told that this was not possible, I need to have the latest version.  Which seems odd given that Mac was certainly around when I bought these programs.

    My questions are:

    Why I wasn't told all this back on July 25, when I had my other computer and initially contacted Adobe?

    Why would I need to buy yet another program and I certainly don't want to cloud base when I already purchased my programs?

    Thank you.

    This is the user to user forums.  No one here can answer that Adobe could have told you.  Most anyone here can tell you that if you ask to switch platforms from Windows to Mac for any products in CS5 that you are out of luck with regard to obtaining Adobe to support that desire.  The license that you have purchased is valid for a Windows installation.  You can download and install a Mac version of the software, but your license/serial number will not work with it.  Only, they provide swaps of platform for the most recent version products, including four years or ago was CS6 (I suspect they'll release this option in the future at some point as well).  If you want to acquire a license for a version of CS5 Mac, then you will have to go around and find someone who sells.  Another option would be to try to use a Windows on Mac emulator, you can install a version of Windows.

    As far as Lightroom will, for this license must be valid for each platform, but the software itself could have problems with a new operating system.

  • Content presenter change icon does not appear not

    I'm relatively new in this area... I have an ADF application where I have the UCM connection defined. I have expanded the files of the Complutense University of MADRID in the connection of Jdeveloper palette and dropped an image from a folder in the repository of the University Complutense of MADRID as a content presenter taskflow in my page jsff fragment. The page fragment has customizable page, customizable Panel etc. for customizations. A taskflow including this page fragment is deposited in a jspx page. When I run the page, I could see the picture displayed. But when I press control SHIFT C, I could just see 2 icons (manage and update Web content) and not edit the icons where I expect to select a different image of the University Complutense of MADRID when running?

    Maybe, with site studio region def / templates, this might work. If I go with Site studio to present content, I have to create region def, model and additional data for this requirement files. I expect something similar as when you drag the taskflow content presenter of the catalogue of resources on the Webcenter portal, it allows you to select a picture on the single content item selection during execution.

    I want to just choose a different image of the University Complutense of Madrid when running through content presenter without studio site. This is the expected behavior, or the problem may be due to any security of the Complutense University of Madrid. I checked the security group of the item of content in public and a free State. rebuild the Index collection.

    Concerning
    Prabhu

    Change icon appears only for HTML content or appropriate data file.
    If you drag and drop an image, the installation will not work and you will not be able to choose a different picture.
    If, however, you want to select another image in the CP, you don't have to do it in input mode (CtrlC Caps), but in edit mode (ctrl shift) e and tap the icon change Presenter content. This will allow you to select another image of the Complutense University of MADRID.

    You can find more information in my tutorial: http://www.yonaweb.be/webcenter_11g_ps3_tutorial_introduction_content_integration and the next part for data files.

  • Bought the new computer windows 10, itunes has changed location of support for external hard drive. The music does not appear in itunes.

    BOUGHT NEW COMPUTER WINDOWS 10, CHANGED ITUNES MEDIA LOCATION FOR EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE. THE MUSIC DOES NOT APPEAR ON ITUNES.

    Changing the iTunes media folder location setting affects only where new additions to your library will be stored.  To use a disk external drive to store your library complete (and assuming that you have access to the original data of the library on an old computer) you must copy the iTunes folder, by default in C:\Users\username\Music, on the external drive - structure library and its records should be like this:

    The hold button SHIFT DOWN when you start iTunes and when you see this message:

    Click choose a library... then find and select the iTunes Library.itl in iTunes on your external drive folder.

    For more information, see user turingtest2 on make a library of portable split.  You must also acquire a 2nd external drive and allows create and maintain a backup your library.

  • Need to change default domain/user for logon in Windows 7 and Vista guest...

    I need to be able to change the default user domain\username login prompt.

This allows HIM to be able to hide our having been in their computer, a very important tool when doing security checks and looking for signs of use inappropriate computer, etc.

    In Windows XP, we could use the hack Reg next to reset the default journal, prompt the user and the domain, we need.

    PS... In my humble OPINION News groups were better...

    And now in recent years is the answer to my question... Where it should be in the group I had in there.

    I found the following .bat file will allow you to set the user name for the next log in Windows 7. (Copy the next lines of text in a text file and give it a .bat extension, then run it as a local administrator).

    Beginning of the .bat code to change the default name for the next journal newspaper in Win 7 *.

    REM echo off

    appeal reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI" / v LastLoggedOnSAMUser /t REG_SZ /d "Domain\Username" /f

    appeal reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI" / v LastLoggedOnUser /t REG_SZ /d "Domain\Username" /f

    pause

    End of code for Win 7, log name *.

    For Windows XP, the following .reg file can do the trick... Do the same as above, but use extension .reg...

    Beginning of. Code REG to change the username by default for the next log in Win XP *.

    REGEDIT4

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
    "DefaultUserName"="name of user.
