Compac presario pc - cannot access all programs

My computer starts up just fine, however most of the icons for the programs have disappeared and have been replaced by the icon of internet explore. Even those who still have the appropriate icon are not available. Clicking on them brings up a window with the program asking for run or save. No matter what I choose, it does not. Stop down and restarting does not help. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Try to do a system restore for a day or a week before the problem occurred. Start, all programs, accessories, system restoration tools. In the window that opens, choose a date.

  • cannot access the programs on the second hard drive

    Hello all, I hope someone can help me.

    I bought a computer with a 1 TB HARD drive and a 128 GB SSD, unfortunately, the operating system has been installed on the 1 TB HARD drive. I then bought a program that migrated from the OS (W7) on the SSD and eventually was able to do that. I restarted the computer and according to recommendations adjusted BIOS while the SSD was the first to start but after I did it I can access only the programs that have been migrated to the SSD. Programs on the 1 TB drive are not on the 'Programs' menu and desktop icons do not work "that c/xxxx/xxx file path does not exist" appears. Now, when I go back into the bios and change the boot order back to disk HARD original starting the computer (slower than normal) upward, but all the desktop icons and all programs appear after clicking on the tab 'Programs' obviously I have not deleted the W7 OS on the drive HARD original still. How can I get my SSD to 'see' and to exploit all programs on the 1 TB HARD drive and then remove the operating system on the HARD original 1 TB disk?

    Hello

    I don't know what is most important to you, but the following freeware application will allow you to migrate your operating system from the disk to your SSD: http://download.cnet.com/AOMEI-Partition-Assistant-Standard-Edition/3000-18512_4-75118871.html .

    I would like to do the following steps, in order:

    1. Back up all the data and programs on an external drive for added security.
    2. Delete / erase the hard drive SSD of all files (a reformatting would be a good way to do it).
    3. Migrate the operating system from the HARD drive to SSD following all the instructions in the partitioning of the AOMEI program.
    4. Remove the installation of Win 7 from HARD drive (again, reformatting the drive is the best way)
    5. Change the settings of the BIOS as needed / educated (if you have not already done on instruction).
    6. Restore programs and data stored on the HARD drive.
    7. Test the system.

    Let me know if this helps you.

    Kind regards

  • Creative support of Cloud for Photoshop asking for Validation of the series. Cannot access the program.

    I bought a simple-app membership cloud creative for Photoshop and downloaded and installed, but whenever I try to open the application a window opens asking serial number validation. If I click on validate it says it can not connect to the internet, but my computer is connected. If I click on "Connect later" he charge for a brief moment and then brings back me to the series posting form. I can't enter the program of photoshop at all. Now, if I understand correctly, I should not need a serial number for him since he is a subscription, but I don't know why it's always asking me to validate when I did not. I tried to uninstall/reinstall the program, and even talked to several agents, but 3 days after I bought it, I still can't access the program. Please let me know what to do!

    When I plug the iPhone to the PC I can't access all of my photos.

  • Standard user account cannot access the programs installed by administrators account

    I have a new Windows 7 computer. I installed various programs using the Administrators account, and then I created a Standard user account. When I login as a user standard I can't see all installed programs. Some are, some are not aware that I have nothing differently when I installed each program. I deleted the first standard user account and created a new standard user but still don't see not all installed programs.

    Thank you

    Claire

    When you have installed programs, perhaps you have chosen to install just for the first user. In all cases, you can put shortcuts to programs in the Menus to start other users.

    Right click on the "All programs" button from the Start Menu and choose 'Open' to get user-specific Start Menu folder. Choose "Open All Users" to download the file of the start - the system-wide Menu.

    %Appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu folder or user-specific and
    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu for all users.

    Then just copy the shortcut icons, as you wish.

    By the way, I always install programs from the Standard user account, providing the password/OK to the UAC prompt. Even if of course you want an administrative user established (and always run as standard for your daily work), almost never, you need to log on to the administrative account.

    2. Choose a date when the computer was working properly, and then click on next to restore system files from that date.  The computer will restart with the fixed parameters.

  • How can I access all programs of cc adobe for a fixed price?

    If I pay for a membership of cc will be I can use photoshop illustrator cc cc ect ect without additional cost? or simply make 40%, for all these applications? I need to know if there is a way for me to pay a fixed price and use all without the price going up or most everything that I use.

    AJ,

    You only have access to Cloud applications creative that you pay, so all you pay is what's available for use. Because you used a new application, there is no unexpected to your Bill change.

    If, for example, you use the Photoshop photography program, you will have access only to Photoshop and Lightroom. If you opt for a single application, you pay and have access to this unique application.

    If you opt for the full creative cloud, you have access to all of the following at one price, regardless of how many applications you actually use. You can an app, three applications, or all of them: complete creative cloud is still the same price.
