Don't want Phoenix I7: Start 10 menu appears not

I recently tried to install Corel X 3 using XP compatibility mode, but it did not work and damaged my menu of the Start button. Everything seems to be OK, but clicking on the Windows icon results in a brief "Hourglass" and no activity. I tried a system restore, but it tells me it couldn't find a file (AV was off), so I can only assume that X 3 deleted something. I tried some of the suggestions catering menu to start with powershell etc but none have brought.

I don't want to re - load Windows, if I can avoid it, but it seems to be running out of options. Any suggestions please?

Thank you!

Hello;

Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

I read your post on your Win10 Start Menu problem and wanted to help.

What COULD something work is known as a repair installation.  It is less destructive of all functions of Windows recovery and rewrites the files from Windows system, including drivers, leaving your apps, settings and data intact.

To do this, you will need to use the link to the installation media to download Win10 and burn a DVD or create a USB key: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install?ocid=ms_wol_win10

Once you have, follow the instructions in the link: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/16397-repair-install-windows-10-place-upgrade.html

Good luck

I'm a volunteer and I do not work for, or represent, HP.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

  • Windows 8 - How to open the PDF documents and start application Menu choices in the Office of current work?

    I have recently upgraded to Windows 8 Professional.

    A question that I have, is that whenever I try to open a PDF document, it always opens in a new window dedicated, with a totally black background.

    Is it possible to open PDF documents on the desktop, so I can see the content PDF, on the same page as all my other apps open?

    Under earlier versions of Windows, can I go to the start menu, then select all applications, and they are listed in the form of office, as all my other applications already open.

    In Windows 8 Professional, I have not found a way to reproduce this behavior again!

    It keeps taking me to a completely different screen.  The one who looks like he could have been created for use with tablets.

    I hate this behavior on my regular PC and want to know if there is a way to use the old and classic views.

    I don't want to open the application menu in a separate window.

    So, two questions: 1) is there a way to open the PDF documents in the current working window?   (2) is there a way to disable the display of screen separate application and return to the old start menu request window, in the current working window?

  • I want cRIO to start and stop the acquisition by push physical button on the cRIO, is this possible?

    When you use my cRIO 9024 on the ground, I prefer to be able to start and stop the acquisition with pressing a physical button on cRIO.

    I want to say I don't want it to be "as a start-up," I don't want cRIO to start the acquisition as soon as the power supply is ensured.

    Is this possible?

    Hi Cashany,

    you will surely find this switch status. But there are easier ways (but more expensive) for a button. Fiddling with a pen or a small screwdriver to switch USER1 is not what I call "user friendly"...

    -You have at least 2 voltage inputs on your module available. Use a switch voltage on the power inputs. Use a 'real' button!

    -You have an available serial port. You can set some pins on GND or voltage and check their status inside the cRIO/RT target...

  • I don't want windows 10, but I'm stuck in the update loop - Help!

    I have tried to avoid the update of Windows 10 and was doing a good job, until one day I came back to my computer to find the middle of the update of Windows 10. I panicked, somehow managed to cancel and thought that I had won it.

    Fast forward a week or two and my computer tells me to restart after the update. It's somewhat normal, I usually told to wait and he does. Not this time. He returns five minutes later telling me that it will restart in 14 minutes if I want to or not. I can't avoid it. It restarts. I have to go to work. I just find that it is just rebooted again later. I have to go back, I hear from my mother that she has restarted several times while I was away. I came home and closing it down properly and went to bed.

    Today, it's the same thing, it force restarts every 20 minutes. I look for things on the internet and eventually check the updates. There are tons of failed attempts at upgrading to Windows 10 (which, remember, I never authorized to do so). I have 10 minutes before it goes to the next round. I'm next to me. I know not enough about computers to speak with her directly and make the troubleshooting thing I found on the internet that involves the registry and to be honest, I don't REALLY want to not Windows 10, so I don't want any solution that leaves as the result.

    What can I do? It's time for me to just suck it up and buy a Mac? I am upset to forced into what I am quite certain I will never buy another Microsoft product again (and this is after growing up on Microsoft and he preferring Apple). I feel so betrayed and powerless. I don't want it to end on a bad note Aussie. Is there something I can do?

    Even if you use another solution to prevent future attempts to upgrade, read the last two sections upgrade to disable Windows 10 - WiKi to see how to clean up what has already been downloaded to your computer.

  • Whenever I run Firefox, it starts to download a huge file that I don't want. How to stop this.

    I had Firefox starts downloading a file yesterday and then changed my mind leave Firefox in the process. He asked if I wanted to cancel the download and I said yes. Now, whenever I run Firefox, it starts to download the same file 805 MB that I already have a copy from another source. I deleted everything I could find with Firefox or Mozilla in preferences and Caches as well as a few other places, but again, start Firefox and it starts downloading. Looked through the preferences of Firefox and see nothing that looks like it would fix this problem. It's Firefox OS x 35.0.1 10.10.1, in fact, it is the OS X ComboUpdate 10.10.2 it maintains keen to download, but it is already on my drive.

    I would like to give your more information, but I'm in Safari, Firefox now because I don't want to waste resources to have this file to download it again. I don't have a line T1 entering my house. Sorry, but this issue should be responsible without any of this info.

    Hello

    To find the right solution to your problem, we need a few more non-personal information on your part. Follow these steps:

    1. Use ONE of the following methods to open the Firefox troubleshooting information page:

      • Click the menu button

        click Help

        and select troubleshooting information.

      • Type of topic: support in the address bar of Firefox and press the Enter key.
    2. At the top of the troubleshooting information page that appears, you should see a button that says "copy the text to the Clipboard. Until it clicks.
    3. Now, go to your forum post, right click in the answer box and select Paste from the context menu (or click inside the response box and press Ctrl + V) to paste all of the information that you copied in the post on the forum.

    If you would like more information on the troubleshooting information page, please read the article, use the troubleshooting information to help solve the problems of Firefox.

    If you have the "see the last time windows" in place for the start of Firefox, it changes temporarily and close the download. Restart Firefox and this cache should disappear. If not, try an update of Firefox:Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons and restore old data profile with this information: recovery of data from an old profile

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    Windows hides certain default file extensions.
    Among them are .html, .ini and .js, .txt, so you can see only file name without the file extension.
    You can see the type of actual file (file extension) in the properties of the file via the context menu in Windows Explorer.
