delete the selection: fill dialog opens automatically

For some reason when I make a selection and press the 'delete' button, the fill dialog box opens. This habit never to arrive and he would just automatically fill the layer with the selected background color. I can't find an option to turn this off.

The filling appears because you're on a locked layer.

Trash the lock and you can delete the selection

I didn't have layers Locked Norman.  I was going to say that the OP was probably an attempt to change the background layer.

  • How to stop the next email to open automatically when I delete email open current?

    If I have an open e-mail and I use the button Delete, the next email automatically opens. Is there a setting I can change to stop this?

    I guess you are talking about the Windows Mail program, and that you opened the message in its own window by double-clicking on it. If so, the only way to prevent the next message to open automatically when is to delete the current message to close the current message and then delete it from the message list pane.

    When I try to open a file *.img using 'open with...

    However next time I try to open a *.img file, I again get the window "Help file of Type" and must go through the whole process again.  (By double-clicking on the file shows "Windows Disc Image Burner".)  Why don't Windows 'always use the selected program' like I asked?  Windows is aware that I have chosen before, because it is considered to be the only 'recommended program' in the 'Open with' dialog box  Thanks for any help!

    You can do this via a registry change, but it is more appropriate for a typical user to simply use the system restore:

    System restore

    Ever wished that you can go back in time following a bad fall? With Windows, you can.

    Installation sometimes a driver or a program can make Windows run slowly or erratically. System Restore can return programs and system files from your PC to a time where everything worked, potentially prevent hours of troubleshooting of headaches. This will not affect your documents, images or other data.

    In Windows 7, you can create system restore points more and see exactly what files will be deleted or added when your PC is restored. For more information, see create a restore point.

    For more protection, use the restore system backup and restore, which is designed to help save email, photos, documents and other personal files.

    To use the system restore

    Before you start the system restore, save open files and close all programs. System Restore will restart your PC.

    1. Open system restore by clicking the start . In the search box, type restore the system and then, in the list of results, click on system restore.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. Follow the steps in the wizard to select a restore point and restore your computer.

      For more information, see System Restore: frequently asked questions.

    In Windows 7 system restore can prevent headaches hours after an accident.

    Hi VikkHckrz,

    1. you remember to make changes to the computer recently?

    Method 1:

    You can consult the following KB article and run the fix it tool available and check if you can assign file association.

    When you run an .exe on a Windows Vista-based or Windows 7 computer file, the file may start another program

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950505

    Also check out the link:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/change-which-programs-Windows-uses-by-default

    After running the fixit so check the option is grayed out or not.

    Method 2:

    If you're still having problems, then you can try to change the settings in the registry only if it is present on your computer and check if it helps.

    a. Click Start, type regedit in the search box and press ENTER.

    b. navigate to the

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer

    (c) in the right side of the screen, double click on "NoFileAssociate".

    d. change the value of "NoFileAssociate" from 1 to 0.

    e. exit the registry editor and restart the computer and check.

    Important: The above mentioned steps show you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, follow the steps from the link below:

  • OfficeJet J6480 how to stop the HP Solutions Center opens automatically on the screen?

    Printer Officejet J6480, Vista, connected to the laptop cable AND Wireless may be also (not sure wireless).

    Always after that laptop starts upward and often while on Internet - the HP Solutions Center program opens automatically.  It passes through the small boxes asking to install with CD, etc opening.  I stop them and then Solutions Center opens in any case.  This happens in all work on laptop.   And especially, even if you use the printer manually.

    How to disable?

    I realize it may have something to do with the configuration and use of the cable linking the two...

    (My setup is very sensitive and was having too much difficulty with the fax configuration.  Always of the problems there, too.)

    Any ideas?

    Much appreciated!

    Hi HP-CompaqPC,

    I understand that you have a J6480 Officejet which continues to run through the installation of the solution Center whenever your computer starts up. I'm sorry to hear that, but will definitely do my best to help you.

    I would recommend that you download and run the HP print and Scan Doctor and he should be able to identify what the problem is and make some suggestions on how to fix it.

    I would like to know how this happens, have a great day!

  • My computer has each network in the selected area to "connect automatically".

    I just bought a new Dell laptop for Christmas with Windows 8, and this is my 1st experience with Win 8.

    I noticed that when I view the list of the networks of all networks within range, all have the "Connect automatically" box checked. I just want to try to automatically connect to my own network. If I uncheck this box for all other networks it makes no difference - when I look at it once again, the box is checked.

    After that research on the internet I found some advice which suggests a right click on the network name and selecting "Forget this network" in the menu that appears. However, right click on the name of any network other than mine does nothing - no menu appears. If I right click on the name of my own network this menu ("Show estimated use, set as connection metered, forget this network," etc.)

    I saw a similar question posted here, as well as the answers given. It did not help. Stopping and starting WLAN Autoconfig Services makes no difference:
    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_8-networking/networks-pane-the-connect-automatically-checkbox/ae5c77fb-1234-4D5B-bf77-628f8b902a7d

    It does not appear to me that this person you have his question resolved adequately, and it seems I have the same concern.

    Why win 8 is configured to automatically connect to all THE networks in the list of available networks, and why I can't uncheck the "Automatically connect" for I will not automatically try to connect to networks? To clarify, I can uncheck the box, but the change is not persistent; If I move my mouse away from this network and then name click on it again, "Connect automatically" is checked once again, apart from the fact that I just unchecked it.

    And why can't click on networks other than my own to get the menu choices that include "forget this network?

    I am VERY frustrated user of Windows 8.

  • Delete the "Missing fonts" dialog box during the execution of JavaScript

    Hello

    I develop a script (in JavaScript) which allows to convert all the InDesign files in a directory specified for PDF files. I'm running into a problem when I run the script because all InDesign files have missing links / fonts.  Therefore, a "Missing fonts" dialog box opens after each InDesign file opens.  I believe that because this dialog box is open, I get the error:

    "cannot process the request because a modal dialog box or the alert is active.

    Again, I'm assuming that my script does not work because the dialog box open "missing fonts.

    Is it possible to remove all the instructions of the user?  I've read some things about the levels of user interaction, however I have not found a way to settle this with JavaScript.

    I'd appreciate any help.

  • iMac Mavericks - delete the Admin user & increase disk space

    My iMac Specs:

    21.5 inch, mid-2014

    OS X Version 10.9.5

    Processor 1.4 GHz Intel Core i5

    Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 5000 1536 MB

    Serial number  C0 * Y0T

    Software  OS X 10.9.5 (13F1808)

    Mac HD 160,11 GB free on 499.25

    Hello

    My wife gave me his iMac and she is listed as a user Admin I created my own user. I want to create more disk space by removing his admin account.


    Apple gives these instructions:

    OS X Mavericks: remove a user

    If you are an administrator, you can remove users that you would no longer have access to your Mac.

    When you delete a user, you can save the home folder of the user, which contains the files and the settings of the user, or delete the folder.

    Open the preferences users and groups, and then click the lock icon to unlock it. If required, type your password, and then click on unlock.

    Select the user you want to remove, and then click Remove under the list of users.

    Do one of the following:

    To save the home folder of the user as a disc image, select "Save the home folder in a disk image." The disk image is saved in/Users/deleted users.

    In order to leave such base file, select "do not change the folder." The folder remains in / Users /.

    To delete the folder of your computer, select "Remove the folder." If you want to keep the programs that read the raw data to recover all files, select "delete the folder safely."

    Click on the user to remove.

    If you do not remove a personal folder user, you can restore the user and the content of the home folder.


    My questions, that they do not explain the instructions.

    1. can I delete his account if I'm not the Admin? I can access the admin account.

    2. can I designate me as the new admin, and then delete his account?

    3. I have, indeed, will create more disk space by removing account here?

    4. If I register his record as a disk image, which will open disk space without delete me the entire account?


    A technician Apple told me that I can not increase the memory of 8 GB to 16 GB on my vision.

    5. can't increase memory - is this true?

    My computer works as fast as I want and I'm trying to reduce the load on the system.

    6. I go about it the right way or is there something more I can do?

    Thank you

    < personal information under the direction of the host >

    Hi Tony, I asked your serial number erased. You never want to post in a public forum.

    To answer your question, no, you can not delete the account if you are not admin. You try to delete the account to become the sole Director of the computer? If so, everything will always be linked to his Apple ID and will require a password to authenticate anything. If this is the case, you must wipe the drive and reinstall the OS using internet recovery.
