Hello
Just recently my computer has been automatically open new windows while my web browser is open. This problem has happened before, but he did not again so far.
Is this a serious problem and can I do to stop?
Thank you

Hi Kate,.
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.
- This happens right after when you start your computer?
- The windows open automatically when you open your web browser? New browser windows are you referring?
The question may arise due to infection by the virus on your system or if some programs are set to open at the start of the system. As directed by your post, you are currently not facing this problem, so you need not worry much about the issue. However, if the problem recurs, then I suggest you to try the following methods and check if the problem persists.
Method 1:
Step 1: Try to start your system in a State of services necessary to the operation and a minimum set of drivers enabled, called Safe Mode.
Start your computer in safe mode
Note: In the advanced startup options, select safe mode with network .
Step 2: If the system works fine in safe mode, try to clean the system starts to operate the system in a selective startup:
How to perform a clean boot in Windows
Note: See "how to reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting" to prepare the computer to start as usual after a repair.
If the problem persists, try to scan the system for viruses as described in the following method.
Method 2:
The issue may be due to an infection by the virus. So, you can also run the Microsoft Safety Scanner to make sure that the computer is free of infections:
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.
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.
Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

had to install the new hard drive, windows key does not
My hard drive died in my Inspiron 660. I ordered a new hard drive and a recovery Dell USB key. A recovery key for Windows 8 pro based on my recommended by Dell service tag. I installed the new drive and used the recovery key to install Windows 8 pro. I then used a third-party tool to get the product key from the BIOS. The product key does not work. I wonder if the product key on the BIOS isn't for Windows 8, Windows 8 pro. If so, the wrong recovery key recommended by Dell.
What should I do to activate Windows successfully?
Secondly, on my old drive hard, I had upgraded to Windows 10 while he was a free upgrade. How to bring back the free update?
Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 TH1 and TH2 had problems installing specific edition. Your key can be a simple language edition or one with Bing edition and therefore rejected by the installation of the edition of bad media.
Windows 10 TH2 and later all the windows 8.x and 7 OEM keys are treated as Windows 10 keys. Edition installation specific issues have been fixed with Windows 10 RS1. The file .iso Windows 10 RS1 image is covering several editions. It contains all OEM editions and will automatically collect a key Windows 8/8.1/10 UEFI BIOS OEM System Locked Preinstallation and automatically installs the correct edition of Windows 10:

I can only speak of sketch but it starts with a 'Open Document' dialog box so you can choose which files you want to open or you can click on the 'New Document' button. It does not open a Finder window. You will need to talk to the developers of sketches, if it bothers you.

Windows Photo Gallery. How can I change the settings in the Windows Photo Gallery to automatically open the image without going to the index first?
Additional information: there are 2 computers that I use on the first Gallery Photo of Windows will open the image and allow me to use the left and right buttons to scroll through the rest of the photos in the folder, that's what I want.
On the 2nd computer when I open an image it will open the Windows Photo Gallery in an index with thumbnails of the displayed record. How can I change so that it opens the same thing as the first computer?
I did the following on both computers; Right-click on the image and select open with...--> choose the default program--> go--> Program Files, Windows Photo Gallery, but it will be open always differently on computer 2.
Both computers use Windows Vista 32-bit.
Thanks in advance.
Australian salvation,
This would happen if the file associations are corrupted on the computer, try method to set Photo Gallery Windows as the default program for opening files jpeg or png below image types.
(a) open default programs by clicking the Start button, click default programs.
(b) click on associate a type of file or Protocol with a program
(c) in the following list of file protocol search jpeg and make sure that you have associated with the program that uses it and then check if it works.
Change the programs that Windows uses by default
