  Since I got my photos all open as I wanted (as before) this way to use Windows Picture and Fax viewer:

  Control Panel > Folder Options > File Types: I changed then each file/folder associated with 'images' to open with Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. I determined this by reading the details for each extension / the item highlighted. If the referenced details 'images', I then clicked on change and choose Windows Picture and Fax Viewer to open the extension.

  I went through everything everyone who was not obvious that they are. I made a change: BMP, GIF, EMF, JFIF, JPE, JPEG, etc... I changed at least 12 (more than I thought it was).

  Immediately after changing all of these types of files, I rebooted and Windows Picture and Fax Viewer was still working the way I wanted to (as before).

• Vista displays the message "not responding".

  When I click to open programs, the program does not open and a message "not responding" appears next to the title of the program at the top of the screen. The entire screen turns off and when I try to close the program a box pops up that gives the options for "Wait for the program to answer" or "close program". When I select 'close program' a message saying "windows is looking for a response" but no answer is found and the system hangs and I can't 'restart', so I have to close the pc using the power button and open again.
  This problem occurs with any program and randomly. Some of the programmes concerned are Internet Explorer, windows Explorer, windows, windows snip tool, roxio creator 2009 and other photo gallery. It seems to happen with any program being launched and programs that have successfully launched previously.
  I searched the various help pages without success.

• Message "Not responding" when recording in CS5

  Today, it is the first time that I had the chance to get out my new illustrator CS5 for a drive and have found that the more often than otherwise, when I save the file, I'm working on I get the error message "Not responding" appear. My system is a brand new Dell quad core, Q955-@ 2.83GHz with 8 GB RAM running Win7 64 bit.

  The files that I use are located on a network drive, and I wonder if this may be the problem. If I let it go for a minute or two that he corrected himself, but I find it a bit odd, given the software and materials, that I am running.

  No idea where to start?

  Given that disconnect him persistent mapped network drive, my problem went away. So far so good.

  To clarify my question, I saw intermittently a message "Not responding" in the title bar of Adobe Illustrator CS5 when you try to save a drawing. By clicking on file/save would immediately show a wait cursor (blue circle in Windows 7) and the Save dialog box does not appear.

  Although the error "not responding" appears, my PC does not seem to be busy doing anything (no use of the CPU for the executable to HAVE it in the Task Manager).

  After some searching on Google for hung in Windows 7 when recording applications, I came across the following Microsoft link:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/313937

  According to Microsoft, Windows 7, when you save, first checks the availability of network resources (persistent mapped drives liked). Applications like MS Office may crash when you try to save if these network resources are not available. Windows 7 seems to also not 'hear' well with older versions of Windows (such as Windows 2000 for example). The guillotine registration number can also be caused by a slow network connection to network resources.

  In my case, I had:

  1 - a slow link between the guillotine Windows 7 PC and a persistent (ie - reconnects when connecting) mapped network drive.

  2 - the network drive is also hosted on a Windows 2000 Server (Windows 7 is not always play nice with Win2K)

  After disabling the group policy that this drive mapped to the login time, my question GOT hooked disappeared. I can still reach the reader via a shortcut on the desktop of the PC Win7, and which seems to work very well. It is only when this resource has been "localized" as a shared drive that this become a problem for Windows 7.

  Anyone having this problem should also verify the possibility of losing your network connection to a shared resource (as the network adapter passes in mode "sleep" because energy saving options and thus break the connection to the network).

  Hope this helps others.

  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.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  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.

• I get messages "Not responding" constants and Thunderbird freezes. I did everything suggested on this forum. Nothing helps.

  I've done all that I can find in this forum - in safe mode, change the settings for McAfee, etc, etc, etc. I downloaded Thunderbird again and reinstalled. Nothing helps. I can look at an email but if I try to remove it I get the message "not responding". If I try to go to the next message I get the message "not responding". If I try to do something, while the screen is frozen, it goes gray and I get the message "not responding". Short of changing my email viewer, is there anyway I can fix it.

  After I 'google' a web site address, I am unable to access the page directly by clicking on the link in the address; the page hangs and does not respond.

  What antivirus you have installed before? Is the virus/malware-free system? If you have a current antivirus installed and you went through at least some of the malware removal steps I list in the link I have given if you are sure that the system is clean, uninstall McAfee and see if that solves your problem. If you connect to the Internet behind a router, you can be sure for this quick test. If you are connected directly to a cable/dsl modem, then firstly download Avast or even Microsoft Security Essentials (both free). Then, disconnect from the Internet and uninstall McAfee. Install the antivirus of your choice and test. If all goes well, your problems have been caused by McAfee. This is not surprising since McAfee is perhaps the worst choice for safety, we could do.

  If you had any antivirus installed before McAfee, then you must go through all stages of thorough removal of malware listed in the my link before anything else. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  ------------------------------

  Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
  launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
  reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leaving Standard, Web, and
  Operation of the network.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
  right of IE)

  Two versions of Avast are available 5.x and 4.8 x

  Avast - home - free - 5.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
  Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
  Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
  Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
  disabled - click OK
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

  Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
  and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
  Finish those you don't use).
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
  programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
  or use Google to see how to remove.
  http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
  http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

  PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
  would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
  (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
  never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  In addition, about half of my 8,000 e-mails are unread. Thus, the fact of having 4 000 unread emails in my mailbox Windows (Vista) slow down my computer more than if they were 4 000 read emails?

  If so, is there a quick way to mark all read emails as read in Windows Mail (Vista)?      .. .in windows Live Mail (Vista)?
