    Hi Sam,

    I apologize for the delay in response.

    It is unfortunate that your problem is still not resolved. I would suggest trying the following methods and check to see if they help.


    Method 1: Use the registry editor

    1. Press on the key of the Windows Logo + R.
    2. Type regedit.
    3. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Explorer/Desktop/NameSpace.
    4. Find the key: {B4FB3F98-C1EA-428d-A78A-D1F5659CBA93}.
    5. Double-click on the default value in the right pane and the value on others.

    If this does not resolve your problem, there are corruptions in the system folders. I try to check the use of method 2.


    Method 2: Scan SFC

    Verification of the file system (CFS) is a utility built into the operating system that will check for the corruption of system files. The sfc/scannow command. (System File Check) analyzes the integrity of all protected operating system files and replaces incorrect versions, damaged, altered, or damaged with correct versions where possible.

    To do this please follow the article below

    Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833/en-us

    Just reply with SFC scan results.

    Hope this information was useful. Please answer with the results and if you need help or have any other questions about Windows, we are here to help.

  • When I try to change my lock screen wallpaper I get error saying "setting of the lock screen has failed. Please try again ".

    Original title: locking error screen

    Hello. I use Win 8 Pro x 64 and I'm having a problem affecting the lock screen wallpaper. I am the admin of the machine and Windows is activated.

    After a few days ago, Windows stopped to change my lock screen background. When I try to change it, the error is displayed on the screen:

    LOCK SCREEN ERROR

    Setting the lock screen has failed. Please try again.
    However, I can still change my profile picture and the bottom of the start menu.
    Other users of the computer can change the lock screen normally. My user account is linked to my Outlook.com account as well as others.
    I already tried the other 'solutions' out there: in doing a selective startup with msconfig, disable services applications at startup and also manually delete the folder "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\SystemData". Needless.
    I also have the feeling of other users on the web: it's somehow connected to some Windows updated published these days.
    I would appreciate any help on this matter.

    Hi, Tadasha. Thanks for the reply.

    In regards to KB 2770917 updates, I already installed it on my Win 8 as well as others (I keep the OS always up to date). So it has not really helped but thanks.
    On the tip of the gob0nkers is not really the case here, because I don't want to set a wallpaper of single lock for each user (in fact I had already read his answer to the question of ch). So far I have found no article on the web by offering an effective way to work around the problem.
    What I've done: created another user profile and abandoned the old (who introduced the problem). I think that it is related to the file the user AppData or something.
    So far things are working well with the new profile of the user.
    Thanks for the help!

  • Lock screen classic classic blackBerry

    I have a classic about 3 months now and have regularly used the password lock screen during these periods, but the other day, it does not recognize my password! So, two or three don't attempts later still no joy and now left me with 7 chances before erasing total due! To search as there may be a problem, I continued until he had received 6/10 but now won't this number what I do. I typed "blackberry" as requested, then tried same but followed by passwords etc. Still no joy. Since then tried to contact warehouse of car online and telephone phone as point was purchsed online with live - so you don't have to go to one of it stores because ther are not interested I got the most Almighty fiasco trying to get a sense out of anybody reclassification this question. The phone is turned on with EA which I am very happy with a 24 month contract, but they are the airtime provider are lying to help with the services of material. After trying same contact Blackberry by phone and mail is close so impossible.

    I am extremely disappointed with this ridiculous service so far and currently have complaints to CPW who are about to be advanced legal advise next week if they don't get the law ther together!

    Does anyone know how to bring this matter the point of erasure of data that I have no problem with it, as this can be programmed again--but I feel Traoré is a fault now rather than a condition or a minor technical problem - as they say in the manual you need to access data reset to clear it before the handset works and I simply can't!

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    At this point, I would recommend that you use a browser of the computer/internet and newspapers in the website to protect using BBID credentials that are associated with the device (note carefully that this is NOT the same as your device lock password). Once you are there, you should see a selection that will allow you to try to change remote password locking device to something else, I hope that something that you can type successfully on the device to unlock.

    There is no way to bypass the password lock... None. Quite simply, you must find a way to type it correctly. It is in terms that you can not past 6 attempt, however... you must type blackberry successfully in order to continue. There is no alternative.

    Failing that, you should be able to use the website protect your device remote wipe, but note that you still have problems later if, for example, is your keyboard malfunctioning.

    Good luck and let us know!

  • Why don't unlock the lock screen?

    I know this is a long post, but I would be very happy if anyone with time on their hands to read.

    My computer works well and has had no virus since I installed windows8 (a few months ago), but today, he worked, and I rebooted, then the keyboard and mouse would not unlock the screen no matter what I do! Normally, when I click or press a key, the screen will slide up and he asked me my password, but now, it won't work.

    I tried different mouse and keyboards and all confirmed working on different machines. My work of mouse and keyboard in my bios and windows 8 s shift f8 mode. I tried different ports. I tried to unplug all USB ports and then plug on the lockscreen. I managed mode shift f8 and tried several options. Safe mode produces the same result. I tried to system restore but it gives me an error report something to do with my antivirus avira. After a Google search I found avira secure systems can't do system restored until avira is uninstalled, which I just can't do it right now.

    While in the lockscreen, I have several signs that the system is not completely frozen. The changes of time. When I unplug my USB WiFi adapter, the icon changes to WiFi and it changes back when I plug it back in. Initially, my keyboard volume knob does nothing but after spamming all the buttons, turn the volume change the volume, as indicated by the meter of volume of windows 8.

    Please help, I need to use my computer! I would prefer not to have to restore it because I don't want to lose a 2 TB of HDD to a value of things. I either need to find a way to uninstall avira has no access to windows and you try and the restoration of the system, or find a solution to the question itself.

    I tried to follow an online guide on how to uninstall programs with cmd, but it failed. I typed in wmic and that the command was successful, the next step was to type in product of is name, but who gave me an error code and it said invalid class. After some research, I discovered that x 64 systems do not come with preinstalled WMI command-line, but I can't install it without access to windows.

    Data sheet:

    Edit: PS in safe mode, the lock screen is a reason ignored. He starts the password entry screen but the mouse is nowhere to be seen and the keyboard does nothing. The thing hits line of flashes.

    I would like to do a refresh of the system but need an installation disc and I've never had a physical disk, I downloaded an upgrade for windows 7.

  • Reminders do not display or stick to the lock screen in iOS10

    IOS10 (10.0.1 and 10.0.2), on an iPhone (I use an iPhone 6), reminders are no longer reliable. I had several cases where the callback doesn't show even on the screen lock and many more times when the recall won't 'glue' to screen lock for more than a short period. Before iOS10, when you said to remind you at a certain time or place, the recall would display on the reliable lock screen until she has been marked as "completed".

    It is a major issue for people who depend on the application for the important tasks and calendar. There is a thread of any discussion on this point, for some reason, has been marked as "solved" even if a large number of people continues to post telling him that there is a problem for them too (as the thread located here). I wanted to start this new discussion which we hope will remain open until it is effectively resolved.

    Thank you!!! This is a HUGE problem!

    Since the update I had to reboot my phone EVERY day.

    Is the stick of reminders... or they do not. Lately they don't yet show upward. Then other things stick to the lock screen can't get rid of.

    Currently this feature on the phone is USELESS

  • 10.2 exasperating IOS - cannot get rid of lock screen notifications or phone calls end

    Hi all

    I hate the new update!  Mainly due to the following question: my lock screen insists to show me the notifications I don't want - next Up, showing what I then in my diary, the Siri app suggestions and news.  I thought it would be simple to disable in the settings, BUT it does not work!  In my settings, news notifications are turned off completely, but still they appear (and Yes, I tried turning market!)  I have no interest in the next place, and cannot turn off anyone.  The Siri is ok - little useful and the same as what was there.

    The other issue particularly infuriating is that the block of additional notifications to the wide space on the phone's screen and I can't see what I'm doing.  In particular, if I'm on a call for long enough for the kick lock screen, for me to put an end to the appeal that I need move these notifications in the way that, slide or press the home button, which takes time. I do not understand why this is happening - surely if you are on a call the lock screen shouldn't come?

    So 2 questions: 1. How can I remove the undesirable elements of the lock screen and 2. How can I prevent the lock screen suddenly to avoid end me a call

    Thank you very much!

    Let's first answer the simple question:

    This is not correct.  To complete a call, you can simply press the sleep/wake button!

    Regarding then until the next, etc...

    Simply scroll to the bottom of the screen (that starts with 'To the top next' and click on change it.)  Then, you can move or delete what you want.

  • Lock screen pops out at random

    While my iphone is in mode 'sleep', it will be very generally turn on the screen for a few seconds without doing anything. and this isn't a hardware problem, since I got it on 3devices.

    I have not seen all complaints online and im surprised.

    It can be very annoying, because it takes more battery, can interact to the lock screen touch, while you are not using it.

    I don't want to reset my iphone7 once again, (it does on the 6s too), please find a solution to the Apple or the quick repair!

    I love my iPhone7, but it's the only question there... what a shame...

    The screen lights up when you move your phone? If this is the case, you will probably enable the revival to the Wake functionality. If you want to disable this option, go to settings > display and brightness > raise the alarm.

  • Stuck zoomed in lock screen

    I am really stuck and frustrated!

    My iPhone 7 is stuck zoomed in on my lock screen! I tried the type twice three fingers and it does nothing. I tried holding down the power button to power it off the coast, but it does nothing. I tried to hold down the power button and the home button to reset but it either does nothing or it takes screenshots!

    I went to iTunes to reset, however I need to have my phone unlocked to be able to do something with it!

    It allows me to pull down my notifications and pull up my Center of the action, but it won't let me everything I click on open. I tried to call the unit and it sounds but still has the zoom in the image of my lock screen!

    I'm at a loss and really need help!

    Hello

    It can help to triple - click the Home button.

    Otherwise, if your iPhone does not respond to other inputs to control the Zoom and you are also unable to shut down normally, then you can force it to turn it back on by pressing the on/standby button and the Volume button and hold.
