File search Windows 7 won't be back for results unless I have change file name

problem: if I'm looking for a car for a file or folder that I know is there (any type of file), it won't be back for results, but if I change the name of the file, it will then find.

For example, if I search: movie.mp4 it won't, but if I go and change the name of movie .mp4, it will find, and if I change back to the original name it will still find it. I'm rebuilding the index, but I don't think it has to do with it.

Thanks for your help and suggestions in advance

  • We had a nice opening, page largely white who had little Fox logo and above, a search block, I won't come back.

    I called our ISP (exceeds/WildBlue) on connections and speed problems. My wife tells me that I would have expected, but their 'help' - a woman with an accent that was decidedly Indian - was told it was because of Firefox. I followed his instructions and now I have the same problems with connections and speed, but my start page has disappeared. It was largely a blank page, with a search block in the Center and the little fox/world below logo. There is a bar at the top which had a pull down to access some (I guess frequently used) sites. It's still there, but the search block offers more what I had typed in previously.

    I'm hating this person 'help '. I am pining away from my old start page. What should I do?

  • Windows updates won't find updates for Office or any other Microsoft programs I installed and there is no option to enable it in Windows Update settings.

    OK, so I just had to re - install Windows 7 on my laptop due to a disk failure (Windows 7 Home Premium SP1) and hit a brick wall with trying to turn on Microsoft Updates instead of Windows updates.

    I try to click on the link "Learn more" on the bottom of the page to update on the line "Get updates for other products Microsoft." and it opens just a web page with a graphic telling me to open my Start menu and click on Windows updates.

    Catch 22 is that Windows Update has no options for anything other than Windows. He won't find the updates for the office or any of the other Microsoft programs I installed and there is no option to enable it in Windows Update settings.

    Exactly what I am missing, and where has Microsoft moved the activation of Microsoft Updates page too, because when I click on the link need me to http://www.update.microsoft.com/windowsupdate/v6/thanks.aspx?ln=en&&thankspage=5 that makes a whole lot of nothing.

    Thank you!

  • When you use firefox, a new firefox window opened and blocked to continue using firefox unless I have a fine. I can't delete the page or even let him. Any help?

    The new window is "http://block.policehunt.org/?id=d04201572567089f9b464bbb1b065531". It is said in very rough English that they recorded me have access to child pornography and in order to unlock my browser, I have to pay $300 through some point of payment. When I try to close the window, a pop-up asks you, "do you want to leave this page? IF you click Yes, it flashes and repeats the same pop-up over and over.

    The English used in the message indicates it is clearly a fraud... it seems that maybe a virus, even if I have an internet virus scanner.

    Any suggestions how to "selectively" delete this 'blocking' window without having to reset firefox entirely?

    Go ahead and force close Firefox by using the Task Manager.

    CTRL + Shift + Esc > process tab > select firefox.exe > 'End process' button

    Then open the currently active settings Firefox folder by using the search box of the start menu to open this short address:

    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    

    If you see more than one folder, click on in the most recent. If there is only a single folder, click on in this.

    Search for files beginning with sessionstore. Generally, you will find sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak. If Windows hides file extensions, you can view according to the method described in this article to support: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219.

    Rename sessionstore.js to something like sessionstore_bad.js file, so that Firefox does not restore this last series of windows and tabs automatically.

    Leave this window open, and then restart Firefox.

    If you want to reopen some of the pages of the last session, you can use the tips in the following threads for 'mine' the sessionstore_bad.js file to extract the URL:

  • External hard drive file names are hidden in Vista

    I have an external hard drive that I use to view files on several computers on my laptop that is running Windows Vista, the files are displayed in the icon view but with no file name. If I switch to list view, details or tile names appear simply not in one of the icon views. This happens only on my laptop and on this external hard drive.

    How can I get the names of files to be displayed in the icon views?

    Hello

    1. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?

    Step 1: Check if the problem persists in the clean boot state.

    From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

    Reference:
    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    1. click on start and then click Run.
    2. type msconfig and click OK.

    The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

    3. click on the tab general, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.
    4. When prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

    Step 2: If it helps, try the steps and check them off below.

    a. open the external hard drive and right-click on the empty space and select Customize this folder on the Customize tab select images and videos from the use of this file as a template.
    b. right-click on an empty area of the window and click Show, and then click Hide file names to uncheck.

    NOTE: If it is gray to hide file names, so make sure you have either very large icons, large icons, icons or small icons dotted first instead of the list, details, or tiles. (See right screenshot below)

    c. the names of files and folders should now be back.
    d. If you have changed the model folder in step 2, then change to the model file you want or had before.

  • Generated by changing the names of files Wizard

    I used the wizard of Coldfusion/Flex applications to create master pages and detail for a very simple application.

    The name of the table that I used was "user_tbl" and the template created .as file is named Useruser_tbl.as. The app works just fine as it is, however, I did not like the name generated for the .as file.

    I have changed the name of the User.as file and all the references appropriately changed the master views and detail (Users.mxml and User.mxml)

    Now, when the application is compiled, I get an error:
    1067: constraint implied a value of type com.myapp.views.detail: use a com.myapp.models: User type unrelated. MyApp/src/com/myapp/views/detail User.mxml /myapp/src/com/myapp/views/detail/User.mxml

    Changinging the name of the file and references back solves the problem.

    What else do I need to change to get the file name change to work?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    pWp




    Obviously my import declaration is ignored. I used the full package name 'com.myapp.models.User' in the detail .mxml file and the problem stopped.

  • How can I open a file search location (in another window or) without closing the search window?

    I use Window 7 Home Premium.  Once I find a file in Windows Explorer, I expect to be able to right click, choose "Open file location" and get the folder in which the file was found to open it in another window.  Instead, the same window I looked into is used to open the folder in which the file was found.  Therefore, if the file was not the one I'm looking for, I have to click on the arrow to the left or press the BACKSPACE key and wait for the results of research to refill.  Often I want to compare two or more files in which some files have the same name.  This now means that I have to open two or more instances separate Windows Explorer.  I prefer to open a Windows Explorer window, search for a file, and open the location of the files of a couple or a few files with names.  How can I get "instead of opening the file" to open a separate window?

    This is a default feature, as far as I could tell.

    However, after looking for a file and if research meets your requirements, there is an option for "Open in a new window" and "open file/folder location."

    But, if I understand your message that you do not click "back" or the back"" button. It is something that is not possible, as far as I know.

    Create a bootable USB drive or DVD from the .iso in Windows 8:

    http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/2227-create-bootable-USB-DVD-Windows-8-release-preview-ISO.html

    Then start under it and install.

    If you do not format anything during installation, all your old files will be placed in folder C:\Windows.old.

    You can then copy what you want to keep, get out of here.

    After that, you can use the disk cleanup utility to remove this folder if you check the box to do this.

    Enjoy.

  • My music files have changed in WMA format in Windows Media Player, and now my MP3 player won't play them.

    My music files have changed in wma format in windows media player, and now my mp3 player won't play them.  can anyone help please.

    original title: Media Player

    Download and install WMA to MP3 Converter, then install it, you can get it here... http://www.WMA-MP3.org/

    Then select all the WMA files you want to convert, and then convert them to the MP3 Format.
    The reason why they are WMA is because when you ripped the files on the disc to your pc, by default, Windows Media Player is configured to save in the Windows Media Audio (WMA) Format.
    This default can be changed by opening Media Player and click on Tools > Options
    Then select the Rip music tab
    Format: select MP3 from the drop-down list.
    Click apply and OK.
    Now the next time you rip a CD on your drive hard it will be automatically saved as an MP3 file.

  • Windows 7 won't let me access the files (my documents, my downloads), but the programs work very well!

    Currently, I am running windows 7 Ultimate on my desktop I built. My computer starts up fine, no problem when I connect and I can run all my programs like itunes, security suite norton, chrome, Picasa and Microsoft word work completely fine. There is no problem to save things on Word view my photos on Picasa (which is on the C drive) or by playing songs on itunes (which means that I can access my hard drive through programs), but when I try to open the downloads folder, it shows a popup that says: "this operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator. "and does not open the file. The problem is that I AM the administrator account on the computer! However, when I open things in my libraries such as My Documents or my music, there just a blank page, saying that I have no files in this folder, but I have files in all of these files: photos, all my music itunes and documents.

    The interesting thing is that I can save documents to the word to My Documents and it will be displayed at the beginning, but when I close the My Documents window and reopen it, the file disappeared and the folder is 'empty' again.

    Currently. I have 2 hard drives connected, a seagate 1 TB and a supplement of 250 GB. Both of these drives appear in disk management, so that the computer knows and is able to see are how many gb on them. Apart from this recognition, when I open the start menu and press computer, it only shows my USB and my CD player, nor of my hard drives. I know that computers are connected correctly as they hum and dry as usual. I am very worried about what is, be it a virus, bad connection, settings that have been changed for any reason any.

    Please help me understand why Windows 7 won't let me access my files through programs, but not in Finder Windows, I have very important files on this computer that I can't lose!

    Windows 7 has a feature of self defense which is a pain.

    He doesn't like files from other computers,

    Right-click on the folder and select properties and see if there is a release button.

    Repeat for external drives.

    Is there a solution for this?

    * original title - Windows 7 won't remember the last used file path.  Very frustrating *.

    It is not a particular problem with Windows 7, but the Internet browser.   We remember is no longer default path of Internet Explorer with the introduction of sandboxing Protected Mode.  Even Windows XP, using the results of this sandbox layout in this behavior.
