Displays the properties of all my .dll files are applications of unknon, which gives me an option to choose an application to open it with. I need help. thxs

Here is an example of the properties of one of my .dll files: c:\windows\system32\microsoft.ManagementConsole.dll - file Type: unknown Application - opens with: unknown Application - (if I try to open it, it asks me to choose in my list, or search the Web for an application)

My problem is, I don't know what the hell I do! Laughing out loud. I don't even know now why I even noticed it.  Anyway, I guess my question is 1) should I I even try to choose an application to open .dll files, or is it a security setting, so I won't be able to open the files that I have no business opening? (2) my properties should apply real knon, instead of saying we don't know? How do I find a list of file names that tell you what you should choose to open different applications or extensions?

I appreciate all help. I fear I can screw up my laptop and I'm on League when it comes to such things.

Thanks again for any useful information. :)

What you see, it's normal.  It is not possible for a user to directly open a .dll (Dynamic Link Library) file.   The file contains functions that can use other programs, but it cannot open or run by itself.

    Given that this was written in 2011, I'm sure you understood something at this stage. However, the post also has much a views, so I think it might be a persistent problem, so I'll post my solution:

    When I copied the file SRIM - 20xx.e in a folder of SRIM-20xx under Program Files, I had a "Disk full" error when trying to extract the files, even though I had a lot of space on my hard drive and without limits. After a bit of messing around, I like the solution is to move the SRIM-20xx folder on the desktop, and then unpack it. After extraction, which leaves you with a lot of seemingly useless files, double-click CONFIGURATION and the installation will begin appropriate. Installation will create a file under Program Files, there will be no need to make things happen later, simply remove the meantime extract the folder to your desktop computer.

How to bring back all my recent files?

    Thank you

    You can check the version of LR on the Help menu (System Info). Check that the version corresponds to what you think you have. However, as you use the same icon as always, it is probably not this problem but it is possible that your shortcut has changed by the operating system. Your external drive disconnected by accident? If it is mounted in the same location - i.e. the same volume name (Mac) or the letter drive (windows).

    Hi Angela,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft community forum. Let me help you with your concern.

    The security settings for the my document and other folders in the library will have complete control and the tick mark you are talking about will be by default on all Windows 7 computers. Some folders inside of it will be in read-only by default. You can remove by box to uncheck Read-only in the properties of the folder.

  • Get the properties of a large TDMS file is very slow

    I have a very large file PDM with about 3000 properties. After that I open the file, it will take about 2 sec to read a property with the PDM get properties VI. I'm reading all the properties, so I can do some calculations on them. It takes too long to read them all. Y at - it a faster way to read. I think now I should have stored the values in a channel, but it does not help my situation.

    George

    Thank you for your answer, George!

    Then, I'm afraid that there is no simple workaround solution unfortunately. If possible, you may want to consider splitting the TDMS file to some smaller TDMS files. We had similar bugs report, on the performance of the PDM get properties, especially when having a large number of properties PDM, we worked on possible optimization now.

  • How to ensure that the binary file is stored in the location specified for my DLL files?

    I'm new to computers and has a Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop with a program in Windows Vista Home Premium on a 64-bit platform. I have a thread in my sidebar gadget new MSNBC and the dates for the stories are frozen in December of last year and does not update the current stories. I had no problem with this before and I haven't added or deleted programs because of this problem to the best of my knowledge. I got advice here on the checking of dll files and 4 of them come back with saying error messages and see that the binary is stored at the specified location for debug files. I searched for information help with this and I found a few tips that not saved and re-entered the files, I tried and different versions of the idea, at first it made no difference and then I redid it and it screwed up my weather gadgets so I redid it and they worked very well. I then tried on the DLLs for the MSNBC gadget, but it doesn't seem to change anything, although the gadget to power for the Dow Jones News feed is now screwed up. Is there a site I can go to what can explain the route of binary/specified path or debug file. Save/re seems to be the right path, it affects obviously the gadgets but not as I want, any help in this direction would be appreciated at. Meanwhile I'll go back and try again.

    Hi dumdeedumdum


    What are the files dll are facing problems with?

     

    You can perform a SFC scan and check if the problem is resolved.
    To Perform a Scan SFC -
    a. click Start, click programs, on Accessoriesprincipally made, right click guestand then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on Allow.
    b. type the following command and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow
    A message appears indicating that "the system scan will start. Be patient because the scan can take some time.
    c. If all files require a SFC replace will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Win7 DVD for this process to continue.
    d. If everything is correct you should, after the scan, see the following message "resource protection Windows not found any breach of integrity".
    e. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

  • Cannot display the properties of the desktop printer

    I have Windows 7 SP1 and Office 2007.

    I just bought a new HP Officejet Pro 276dw.  Installation was fine and I can print from all Office applications.  What I can't do though, is change the printing of any of the applications properties.

    I click the icon 'Print' (or ctrl + P) and the dialog box opens.  Can I change the number of copies, etc., but if I click on properties of the application (Word, Excel etc.) "freezing".

    If I try to close I get the message that a dialog box is open (it is not)

    The only way I can close the program must force via the Task Manager.

    I also found that if I click on seek a printer (even if it is displayed) I get The Active Directory Domain Services is currently unavailable.

    I can access the printer properties via the HP desktop icon, but it's very slow.

    Connection is made by residential wireless Group, but I also tried a usb connection and the result is the same.

    My Epson previous (a deceased) worked very well and no problems to access the properties.

    Help all very warmly received.

  • Change the properties on all the songs at once?

    Hello

    I want to change my font properties in all of the titles on my video. In CF, it is possible to copy the properties, select the titles and apply them at all... but I can't find this feature in Premiere Pro (I'm a newbie!).  All the research I've done seems to indicate, but it is not possible, someone here has a method that works?
    Thank you, Christine

    You're right - if you create a series of titles in Premiere Pro, you cannot make a change to one and have this filter through others. However...

    If you make your titles in after effects (AE), then import into first through the dynamic link, then any changes you make to these titles in AE will filter in first. In addition, with text templates, you can make a title in AE duplicate title in first and then update text from itself. A VERY cool workflow if you do several lower thirds that look alike, save, but for text.

    Here is a link to a tutorial from Adobe that explains the process in more detail: How to use Live text of After Effects templates in Premiere Pro | Adobe first Pro CC tutorials

    And a video that shows the process in action: Live text templates. With the help of editable After Effects files in Premiere Pro on Vimeo
    * This video missing a few points that allow your process be lighter, but it is accurate by hand.

  • Some newbie need help to display the Properties window

    Hello!

    I am writing this issue on behalf of another Member of our association, which does not much English. We bought him Final Cut Pro X, so that he can learn a few video do, and he is very enthusiastic about it. We first had a try of FCP X, and then we bought and installed the version full (10.2.3). He is still learning the basics, and today he said he can not find the property field in the upper right corner that he used in the trial version. I don't know what the problem is, so I asked for a screenshot:

    https://drive.Google.com/a/hyvanmielenpelit.fi/file/d/0B26s9BQiLuATRVRob0lnNFY3Q m8/view? USP = share

    Apparently, the Properties window does not appear when he wrote a large '3D text' on a purple background. I'm not sure if it is just using the program wrong, or what is the problem, but in any case, I promised to write a post on a forum of FCP X, so that someone could help it how to get properties appears. He wants to see properties, for example, for the 3D text, when added to the timeline. No idea what is the problem?

    It should be as simple as clicking on this button:

    Command-4 is the keyboard shortcut.

    If this does not work as it should try to reset the preferences of FCP X.

    Hold down Option + command like FCP X starts.

  • Access to all the properties of all objects in a Subvi

    Dear all

    I need to change some properties of the objects on the front panel in an another Subvi, I don't want to do a 'reference' for each object, and then manipulate its properties in an another Subvi, I want to send some how a reference that contains information for all the subjects in the subVIand and then finally within the Subvi I decide about the objects and their properties that I'm about to manipulate.

    So far, I sent the reference to "ThisVI" in my Subvi and try to access "all objects []" on the Panel and then try to query all objects corresponding to my object to and then manipulate the properties I want (attached image). But the problem is that the properties are different from each specific objecton Panel and I am not as free asI was the main VI.

    For example in the attached picture, is it possible to change a Boolean value in this way?

    Thanks in advance!

    Best regards

    Afshin

    Afshin salvation,

    Yes it works also for other references like graphical waveform. If you use the constant class to more specific "strict refnum", then you get all properties for this purpose.
