Original title: files not opened

I have a problem when I try to open all folders that I have on my computer.  When I double click to open a folder (which resembles based back window) appears and you can see the dos command lines scroll quickly in and then the window closes without opening the file.  The only way I can now access these folders is to right click and open...
Help please

Maybe do a verification of the file system can fix it, but no guarantee.

Checking system files will search the files corrupted and if found, will try to fix them.

Start button > Search box type cmd > look up, do a RIGHT click oncmd.exe > click onRun As Administrator > in this window cmd black and white, type at the prompt flashing sfc/scannow > press the ENTER key.
Note: there is a space between 'sfc' and ' / '.
To sit and wait. It will take time.
When finished, exit the cmd window.
Reboot (restart your computer)

    Hello

    1. have you downloaded the right file to library?

    2. What is the file format of the file that you downloaded?

    3. What are the recommendations of programs that provided by Windows?

    4. have you installed the player from the computer program?

    5 is this problem confined to a particular file that downloaded?

     
    The file that you downloaded requires an appropriate program to open it in Windows. That's why I suggest to check again if you have installed the reader program and also check if you have downloaded the appropriate Center books.

  • Windows Live mail tells me I have an invalid password when trying to open the e-mail message in the client.

    I can sign into my e-mail account of Bellsouth/yahoo online through my browser, but Windows Live mail tells me I have an invalid password when trying to open the email in the WLM client.  I have rebuilt Windows Essentials, I made sure that the password is shorter than 16 characters.

    Windows Live Mail has worked until I suspected my e-mail account had been hacked, and I changed my password. Twice (on the 3 dozen attempts) WLM has requested a password, I entered into it, and it downloaded my email on the server, and then gave me an error saying that it could not complete the task and would not send/receive once again - it just keeps asking for the password.

  • Trying to open the files Windows 3.1 with Vista Home Premium 32 bit

    I am trying to open the files of an old computer running Windows 3.1. the files include MS Publisher, MS Works, encyclopedia Compton, & several other w/3.1 compatible programs. Y at - it a program or an update to Vista that can be used to open these files? What I try to open it & save programs on a version of Windows 3.1 & Vista before using on Vista? I can't open files from MS Office that have been made on a computer running Windows 98 or 2000. Any ideas?

    Windows has many built-in features to make it as compatible as possible with older versions, but Windows 3.1 is really a little old! You can try to use Compatibility Mode, but it goes only up to what Windows 95.

    To run an older program in Ccompatability Mode (as if your PC was using an older operating system):

    1. right click on the program and select 'properties '.

    2. go in the 'Compatibility' tab at the top.

    3. check the first check box and to set up the 'Windows 95 operating system "(which is as old as that).

    4. check all other settings for maximum compatibility (depending on the program that you try to use, some may not be necessary, but you should try each of them to be sure).

    5. click "OK" and try to run the program.

    Note: If you want to try to do this at a program Office (and other Windows programs), this may not work. Please ask for more help with this.

    Try to start your system from a "Live Linux" CD free.  This CD runs a version of Linux without installing anything on your hard drive.  To create the CD, you download a file ".iso" and feature "Burn Image" of your CD burner to create a bootable CD.  The advantage, that you win, is that Linux is a lot less strict with permissions, so you should be able to access your files and copy them to a USB device.  Some Linux Live CD are:
    Knoppix: <> http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html >
    Ubuntu: <> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/try-ubuntu-before-you-install >
    Ubuntu is actually an installation disc, so be very careful to follow the 'Try Me' instructions so that don't accidentally install you it on your hard drive.

    An another boot CD, you might try is "Hiren".  It is in fact a version of "First environment" of Windows XP, so you could get access to some files that you would otherwise not not when starting on this disc.

    Hello

    programs as needed. Use this method for other necessary - DO NOT ASSUMER one

  • Windows flashes when scrolling on in the task bar, Alt - Tab does not.

    OK it drives me absolutely crazy. for these past few weeks, my taskbar and alt - tab has been broken. When I move the taskbar of the program im trying to open just blinks but never actually maximizes.  I noticed that it only flashes I have my cursor over the icon. But if I leave it right on it to open its own it never made. Alt - Tab is also the exact same thing (which makes me assume that the question is related.) I click on buttons and pop-up windows, but does not open anything.

    I looked around and I know that this question emerged with a reliablitiy of windows there are few up-to-date kb977074, but wasn't in my update list. SO I now have no idea what to do. Ive played around with the parameters monitored for defective or damaged files, and really, I don't want to have to do a system restore. especially since ive restored my computer and he was doing it before I updated. so... ideas would be very appreciated.

    Thanks in advance :)

    Hello

    Welcome to Microsoft Community forum.

    I would be grateful if you can provide us with the following information to help us better understand the issue.

    1. You have installed all the programs, application or updated before the show?
    2. How did you check the defective or damaged your system files?
    3. Do you receive an error message or error code while using the taskbar?

    Try it out below mentioned methods and see if it works for you.

    Method 1

    Try to perform a full scan of your computer using Security Microsoft Scanner.

     

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

     

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

     

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

    Method 2

    If the problem persists, I suggest to check the integrity of the system and for this you may need to run the SFC (System File Checker).

    Scan SFC will be scans all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

    How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

    1. Go to Start, click all programs and open the Accessories.
    2. Right-click on command prompt in the list programs, and then select run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click OK.
    3. In the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

    Hello Jamie-94,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    It looks like something has become corrupted when you tried to install or open your application.
    I want to uninstall the application first.
    Make sure that all the files/folders related to Sony Vegas 8 trial have been removed. This includes My Documents.

    If the file is a .msi, you can use the Microsoft Installer Cleanup utility.
    Click here to download it. You can use the utility to remove installation information for programs that were installed by using Windows Installer. Remember that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility does not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall on.

    Otherwise, try to install it again and see if you get the same error.
    If still problem, I suggest you post your question in the Forum Sony listed here.
