closing programs
I have a HP pavilion g7 w/windows 8. How to close programs that I watched without shutting down the computer?
If you're referring to Metro apps, enter at the top of the screen with the mouse cursor and drag down or press Alt + F4 on your keyboard.
Note that, when you switch from the app, the app is suspended (and, therefore, time processor taking notes) and will be killed by the operating system if more resources are needed.

menu start does not display the recently closed programs
I can't get the start menu to show all the programs that I recently closed, and this under the items added in the start menu, it shows the item titled my recent documents. I like being able to click on the Start button and see what I have recently been in programs.
Hello
What you specify is called list of the UPM (most frequently used programs list). The MFU list appears under the list of favorites on the Startmenu. This list tracks the frequency programs are used and displays them in order of the most used (on top) to least used (bottom).What exactly is your problem? This list is not displayed any program? or it shows some programs that have been used but does not add new programs to the list?
Possible solutions:1.right - click on the Start Menu and select Properties. Under the Start Menu tab, click the Customize button. under the tab general , in the program section to ensure that the 'number of programs at startup' is not set to 0. If your required number is already set, then clear the list by clicking the clear list button. Now open some of your programs and check if the MFU list now programs or not.2. If she has not worked for you, so now you need to check your registry settingsOpen regedit (start > run > regedit > OK)Navigate to one of the following keys- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-Software-Microsoft-Windows------CurrentVersion------policies-Explorer
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER-Software-Microsoft-Windows------CurrentVersion------policies-Explorer
Remove NoStartMenuMFUprogramsList & NoInstrumentation values or set zero.

I close all programs and then I closed my laptop but I see message programs are pending and that I still have programs that run, but actually I did not! I close all! and then after a few seconds it just stops himself well. In my view, there is a problem, why I see this message?
This time, when I stopped my laptop a blue screen appeared saying windows is recovering from an unexpected shutdown. This was not unexpected at all, I closed all programs and all just stop it!
From elsewhere when I press ctrl + alt + del and start the Task Manager I see not all programs that are running.
It's a windows 7 64.
I see message waiting programs so that I still have programs that run, but actually I did not!
Actually closing manually request does not mean that it is not running
Some of the startup item typically run in the background
There is no additional work Windows doesn't do, what application you are running is to show
All you can do is try to disable all start once and go to the service tab and select below "hide all Microsoft services and disable and to apply, it will ask the start/stop and see same problem is happening or not."
Press win + r > type "msconfig" and enter and click on start and select Disable all and restart

When closing Dreamweaver CC 2015, it goes into the eternal spinning wheel and takes several minutes to finally react. I still have my files first close, then close the program. Now, after the closure of my files, I go to my task manager and just kill Dreamweaver. In addition, the updated Acrobat DC update version is also buggy. Just click on a pdf file and an error pops up that Acrobat has crashed - and I wasn't even in the running. Is there anyway that I can go back to previous versions? I'm really tired of buggy programs.

FSX joystick settings disappear after closing program
I'm under Flight Simulator X on Windows 7, 64 bit. I have a Saitek yoke and pedals for rudder CH. I'll have to set up and calibrate the yoke and pedals whenever I start Flight Simulator x, because the settings seem to be reset after I close the program. I've never had this problem until I went from Vista to Windows 7.
The yoke for twenty years of odd functions, it becomes very irritating to say the least. I have tried to make profiles and save them, but no use. Has anyone else had this problem and with success the fixed?
Thank you!
Hi sfergson727,
1. what version of Flight Simulator X are you using?
2. did you of recent changes on the computer?
3 when was the last time it was working fine?
I suggest that you download the drivers for Saitek yoke and pedals CH rudder on the manufacturer's Web site and then install the drivers in compatibility mode, check if it helps.
What is program compatibility?

Adobe processes continue to run after closing program!
Hello
I have this problem with Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Media Encoder, and hearing, but not with Photoshop, Dreamweaver etc.
Whenever I close one of these programs, the respective process continues to run in the background.
I can't restart the program until I go into the Task Manager and kill the process (AfterFX.exe, Adobe first Pro.exe, pproheadless.exe)
I already tried cleaning with the cleaning tool to uninstall and reinstall but the problem remains.
I encountered this problem a few months after a long break from Adobe.
Never had any problems before.
I cloned my complete system with Acronis on a new SSD a few months ago...
don't you remember anything else with a lot of impact that could have triggered it.
System: Win7 x 64
Software: Adobe CC
I found the Solution (for me at least)
It seems to be a driver problem with the 600 series of nvidia graphics cards.
I installed the old driver for my GTX 680 and everything works fine now (some newer drivers might also work)
I'll write an e-mail in support of Nvidia and tell them what happened, pls do the same if you found the solution because of this post and
upcoming drivers going to work well for us once again.
Best regards

And each time, when playing video I did, but only when the captions are on. I find this strange. As my computer can not handle me add captions to my video. Well, I can add it, but when reading what I've done and the legend turns, the program never fails to stop. "Adobe first Elements 9 has stopped working", after which I have to close the program. I can solve this? Really, it of annoying, makes it incredibly frustrating to change if I'll use the captions. And I want to do.
Looks like you have your properly configured for your video project. Although I do not recommend you made (press enter) whenever you see red lines above the clips on your timeline.
That said, what processor you have, how much RAM and how much space free and clean is on your hard drive? When did you finally run Disk Cleanup and Defragmenter?

-Alienware M17x R3
-Core i7-2860QM

Any ideas on what could be the cause?
Does happen with particular vi or exe or anyone, including max and daq assistant? If it was built on this machine? Try to force recompile all (Ctrl + Shift + click the button run.
I can hardly imagine what can be encoded in simple artificial intelligence causes of BSOD. I'd say it's machine problem. Something is not installed correctly. Is - this change help USB? Card mother does a USB 2.0?

Windows stay open when the program is closed
I have an intermittent problem that is becoming more and more regular
When I close a program window remains on the screen
I can open other programs then when I close them that their windows remain at the top
Yesterday during one of these events, I opened Solitaire and drag the window to the middle of the screen, but he left a picture behind where he had opened
I could play the game without any problems, but when I closed it the window remained on the screen.
From what I see this is just the part of windows that clears the screen back to the office after a closing program that stops working.
I had another suggestion to try another graphics card
So I did and went for an upgrade at the same time
So far, the problem (touch wood) is not re-appeared
The old radiator of cards has been enough good folk so this may or may not have something to do with it.
If I never use this graphics card in another machine and get the same problem I know then what it was.

XPSp3: Logging disable a user to log on to the other - stop programs?
I have two users on XPSp3. Both are administrator-level. I wanted to disconnect a user and connect to each other and got the warning that unsaved work will be lost.
Is it just open the files that are closed? Done also closed programs or the whe switch you users?
Ed
When you disconnect a user, all programs started by this user have been completed.
However, there is a feature called 'Fast user change' which allows you to switch from one user to another without logging the first user... so all programs that are running with the first user are kept in their current state, while the second user can start and run their own programs. Refer to the following Microsoft KB article:
"How to use the Windows XP Fast User Switching feature"
