Customizing Desktop

When I resize a window and then close it, it goes back to the original size.  How can I lock you in a resized window so that it opens the same size you closed last?

Have you ever been able to do before? Windows 7 has this feature, but I don't know how you would do it in XP. Maybe a guru of IE can have an idea.

  • Customizing desktop user account

    I want to remove icons from desktop user accounts, but not from the position of administrative connection. How do I configure this? How to do that a permanent change so when added to the admin login programs icons are not added to all other desktop user?

    Please specify your question. The changes you describe were made in response to user input. There is no setting in itself that does what you are looking for. Frequently the previous versions of Windows do not have the software for all users except written specifically to do this, something that caused a lot of problems and complaints, even if he wasn't really a Windows problem (it had to do with the way in which the installation package was written by the Publisher of the software).

    Basically, to answer your second question, you would have to do the part of the icon on the desktop to prevent a user to manipulate and affecting all users defined by the user.

  • Customizing desktop view horizon (sysprep) stuck.

    Nice day.

    Skyline view computers desktop 5.3.1 Win7 (x 86).

    I did 1 gold statue (os tuning) and clone a few images of her masters, then install some software and view agent (Net framework was installed after the agent from the view because of the article on pubs.vmware) on these main images. Then I deployed 2 related clone pools of first and second master images without any problem, but the 3rd stucks pool (from the 3rd master image) on customization. I just saw the windows login screeen, but desktop computers does not restart for sysprep. Master images (1st, 2nd and 3rd) has the same configuration. View Composer have created computer accounts in Active Directory. Any suggestions?

    Sorry for my bad English.

    Hello, Linjo. Thank you for your response.

    I use KMS activation according to pubs.vmware requirements. I solved my problem earlier in this way: delete an agent from view, vmware tools, hotfix 2550978 (for vmxnet3), net framework, reboot machine, stop vm, vmxnet3 remove, add vmxnet3, install vmware tools, install kb2550978, install view agent, install net framework strictly in the following order.

    Since the Panel control/customize, go to themes and check that the theme of Windows Vista is activated.

    If it is not available, click Start and type services.msc, and then press to open the dialog box. Scroll the themes service, and then click it. Click start it or restart option in the left column. Once restarted, check again the themes of customization dialog box.

  • Why my desktop display does not disappear after loading of origin?

    My computer loads all my settings in the start, but after a few minutes my customized desktop image is removed to return to a blue screen. Slowly thereafter, other details screen begin to disappear only to leave the outline of the box.  I have scanned for viruses using different credible programs, but he persists.  Restart the system alleviates the problem only to occur once more in the future.  Does anyone else know this?

    It really looks like a virus or if not a serious problem with your screen/monitor adapter... Change your theme style old windows? And looks like the virus maybe is PC MightyMax. That's what WOT. If you want to do it manually, then download autoruns to see startup entries and search of mightymax and delete them and download procexp to view running processes. Maybe if you close it mightymax processes your desktop will fade.

  • Foglight Custom monitors for all Interfaces

    I am trying to create a custom desktop for the OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8 - ifOperStatus for all interfaces. I created the custom monitor successfully, but when I go to apply, Foglight makes me choose only a single subset (aka Interface)? I must add this manually for everysingle interface? I also want to add this monitor for a group of Force10 switches, so more than 500 interfaces...

    Hi Jim,.

    That's right: you need to add the client once policy monitor for each interface you want to monitor. We do not support a table of results of a custom monitor.

    I had my PM team to see if we can add this as an enhancement request.

  • Custom application for DMS library

    Hello everyone. I am a developer front end flsh and worked on a custom desktop application that worked with CISCO DMS. We had DMS 4.1 and the entire structure of the library has been in xml as programmGuide files, programs, episodes and videos. My request has been reading all these files for the custom interface. Recently we move to 5.2 and my application no longer works. So could you please tell me if there are any access to the video library. Is it as before or xml files is a database. I see that time is a frontend flash on html pages so there should be a door entry and some services to have access to a list of videos, research, etc..

    I thank very you much for any information.

    Alex, there were major changes in DMS 4.1 to 5.2.1.

    I suggest to look at:

    I join the developers forum, and you can get access to the DMS

    Technical information & API you owe me.

    See you soon!

  • The desktop icons fly over left after resetting my computer.

    Hello

    I just had a question. It is not a big deal, just a pain. When I restart my computer all the icons that I moved to the upper-left corner of my screen (hobby icons and links to video games and applications) are all moved to the left of the screen with the computer/network/trash icons. I have to move every time I reset my machine. I made sure that the reorganization is off. I even turned on and then off it again.

    I am running windows 7 that came with my dell. He started just do it after I made a backup of my computer.

    Is this a common problem? How should I do? As I said, this isn't a huge problem, just a pain to move all icons back just to reset on me when windows updates or I turned off my computer at night.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you

  • After a system restore, my all my toolbars, including bookmarks, menus, printing, start, are tiny.

    I had a heck of a few months where I had to use the Safe Mode Networking due to my not be able to connect to Windows 7 normally. I did a couple of restorations that did not work. Finally, today, I open msconfig and reset Services and the entries in startup that had not worked previously, but not for now. I was very happy with the results. I know, however, is that too many options are allowed, but I'm not sufficiently advanced tech to know most of the time, which are necessary and which ones can be rejected. That said, I'm computer otherwise above average. I'm not tech stuff... I usually find answers for the few trouble, but this time I can not find how to resize; Yes, I checked the settings by default, etc.. If TINY!

    A more happening at the same time, is that many of my custom desktop program icons have lost their customizations and have been replaced by the Firefox icon. How can I fix?

    Firefox 33.1.1.
    Windows 7 Ultimate

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    The software will just keep re - create. But when "custom desktop models" will appear in your Documents, right-click on it and select Properties. Click on "Hidden" and and it is no longer present.
