• Home page and a new tab will appear at startup

  If you have extensions working in Firefox 11, they will work in Firefox 21 (because Firefox now, since 10, default is all compatible). In addition, you won't be on the older versions because of security risks. Upgrade to Firefox 21 as soon as POSSIBLE, then update your extensions and plugins.

• What is a "desktop.ini" file and why it is part of every folder on my drive network hard?

  I have Windows vista (64-bit).  I have a WD HDD connected to a linksys E4200 wireless router. I created a music network hard disk, and every time I transfer or rip music to this reader, this "desktop.ini" file appear also in the context of each case.  Is this OK to delete this file?

  Desktop.ini is a hidden file, use of Windows operating systems to store folder settings. For example, you have created a music library so desktop.ini will contain the settings to indicate to the user interface to display the files in the folder differently from a normal folder. It will also contain parameters of the custom icons and names.

  You can delete the file if you wish; point negative only consequence will be the loss of these parameters/customization.

• Desktop.ini drop-in DIFFICULTY PERMANENT advice of recordable media (CD/DVD/blue ray burner)

  I am using windows 7 Pro SP1 64-bit with the last update for now,

  (UPDATED with CORRECTION)

  "desktop.ini" with detail files [.] [ShellClassInfo]... shell32.dll,-21815 will no longer appear when a writable media in the drive.

  I suspect that it was abnormal and error of windows system, the first time I run the PC after reformatting and restoring, there was no such desktop.ini in the recordable media. I notice it start up after microsoft windows LIVE essential and games for windows LIVE installation.

  I have made many try hard but he still see the intermittently. even with security update and latest ms windows, updates essential...

  first step, type "regedit" in start search, to run the registry editor program.

  then go to the Edit menu, and then search FOR "shell32.dll,-21815", in:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\ {...}

  check with "shell32.dll,-21815" and the relative path "Microsoft\Windows\burn\burn."

  If so found,

  Export the registry and save it as burner.reg. then,

  only remove the "localizedname' and the 'attributes' and keep the rest.  (CORRECTION)

  then FIND 'Windows\Burn\', look for this register with the address "c:\user\...\AppData\...". Microsoft\Windows\burn\burn' or

  "Microsoft\Windows\Burn\Burn", or

  "c:\user\...\AppData\...". File Microsoft\Windows\burn\temporary to burn' Rename 'c:\user\...\AppData\... '. Microsoft\Windows\burn\burn,"

  "Microsoft\Windows\Burn\Temporary Burn Folder" rename it to "Microsoft\Windows\Burn\Burn".

  ensure that it was 'Microsoft\Windows\burn\burn', look after pressing F3 keyboard will repeat the same task...

  Close regedit.

  THEN go to the \AppData\local\microsoft\windows\burn C:\user\(your user account), delete the folder "burn" or "temporary burn folder" or both if available.

  Then make a new folder name 'burn '. , restart the computer, note start the computer to the top of windows significantly faster...

  FINISHING WORK, SOLVE it... the desktop.ini will never appear in the recordable media player. all normal, can burn the recordable, the file to be burn save temporary burn folder will delete automatically after burning, everything as usual, no error.

  (CORRECTION)

  I suspect the the desktop.ini performed from the Games for Windows LIVE search software keep for any PC games in the hard drive and remove-able, perhaps from this, the computer run more slowly than the condition of freshly reformatted / PC Restore. It acts like a virus that prevents the monitor and look for any PC games... and record them in the registry.

  After of many trials/try, I noticed the access special setting by clicking with the right button on the optical drive for assets, the menu "registration", the parameters cannot be change and save/apply.

  (eject the disc after burning master, temporary folder except location,...)

  I found the solution, to keep the registry than the note above for deletion to:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\ {...},

  with "shell32.dll,-21815" and the relative path with "Microsoft\Windows\burn\burn."

  only remove the "localizedname' and the 'attributes' and keep the rest.

  Restart the PC, everything should be normal. Settings menu for registration in the optical drive capital can be adjust and apply / save, desktop.ini nomore see in the optical drive

  everything is normal. everything should be good as another user account, DIFFICULTY TOTAL and RESOLVED

• Symbols of office ini "cog" appeared on admin office... How do I know that they are part of?

  Hello

  

  These symbols have appeared on the desktop of my admin account. I don't like unexplained things that appear in my admin account, so, how do I know what they are associated with? They appear as a result of software that I installed in my admin account, and it is rare to access this account, so I don't know when they "conclude" and have been unable to find their source. It is the first time symbols as it appeared on my desk.

  Thank you, Jay

  Hi Jay

  These files Desktop.ini sometimes appears on the desktop for no apparent reason, if you have the show hidden files enabled in folder options.

  In other cases, they generally only appear when you perform a large customization on a folder.

  If you have not made any radical customizations on the folder on the desktop, you can delete these files safely.

  How to customize with the Desktop.ini files:

• "desktop.ini" and some of my folders appear hidden,.

  How can I solve the following problem? There is an icon called 'desktop.ini' that is popping up all over my computer and some of my folders appear hidden,

  Hi Merlman,

  It looks like your system may still have infected files that are not recognized by the scanning software. If system restore has failed to solve this problem, the next step would be to try to repair all files in Windows by performing a SFC/scannow: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310747

  Remember that your system may have been corrupted too, and you may also need to perform a repair installation: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917964 (it indicates if a later version of Internet Explorer is installed and can apply to your system).

  If I see suddenly desktop.ini file on my desktop I should consider a virus? Removal of such a file system will be dangerous?

  Hello

  Do not delete anything because you can't get rid of the virus by deleting everything simply. You should run a virus scan. Make sure you have an antivirus premium so that you will be protected.

• When I start my system, some notifications invites to the top of their own and I still see the desktop.ini file in my documents/files please what this means?

  Every time I start my system, the Lync appears, a modem exe shortcut. files also appears, how can I stop this?

  I want to know the meaning of desktop.ini, I remove cause it's to show in most of my documents?

  Your thread was started successfully in the forum comments, so I moved it to the windows 'Repair and recovery' forum where is is more on the subject.  You must return to your topic and we tell which version of Windows you are using.

  Look in your startup folder to see if you see Lync and modem.exe shortcuts in this folder.  If so, remove them and you should no longer see these pop-ups when you connect.

  You can get rid of him, but it can return.  Desktop.ini is usually a file hidden, so you must have the display of hidden files and folders active if you do not see it.  Desktop.ini is a file that is present in many files and it is used by the process to "customize the folder.  It allows you to specify multiple behaviors to a folder and what desired icon displayed for a folder.  See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/cc144102(v=vs.85).aspx for a more in-depth explanation of the desktop.ini file.  For certain folders such as My Documents, you should probably leave it alone.  It won't hurt anything especially if you do remove it, but the folder will then behave like any other folder, you can create.

• Why file desktop.ini opens in Notepad when I start?

  Whenever I have my laptop startup (which is running XP Professional), the desktop.ini file opens in a Notepad file. How can I prevent that to happen?

  Thank you!

  You don't need to change all attributes on these files.  All you have to do is show off system files in Solution Explorer.  Hidden files can always be on.  Then, they will not appear on the desktop, but they'll appear when you search using the file Explorer.  And everything still works.

  Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates. You may need to re - download the pictures, but the restoration of the system normally does not affect data files so it's probably not necessary.

  BTW, do not delete the desktop.ini file - this is important.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
