Hello, I need help with a rather strange problem.

The problem is that all my programs and files icons/shortcuts have been replaced by a single program, so that whenever I click on anything either as a 'word' or 'google chrome', I am led to the same program. The program that it leads to is a game application called "steam". I thought that uninstalling the app could solve this problem, but he didn't and so now whenever I click on anything either guests of Windows me to select a program to open the file.

Thank you

Stone.

PS, my laptop is a Pavilion dv6, I think only a four edition or something. Windows 7 is my OS.

Hello

If Steam is a recent installation, the best way to solve this problem would be to run the Windows system restore.  If you have Norton Internet Security installed, you will need to disable Protection Tamper of Norton were first described in step 2, on the link below.

http://us.Norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docURL=20091112171719EN&LN=en_US

Once you're done, shut down the laptop.  Windows system restore is usually better run in Mode without failure.  Tap away at f8 that you start the laptop to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER.  When it has loaded, on the Start Menu, click principally made programs, accessories, click System Tools and run the system restore.  Choose a restore point at least 24 hours before steam was originally installed and then proceed to the restoration.  When you are finished, Windows will restart normally.

If the above does not correct the problem, try running the automated Microsoft ' Fixit' here.

Kind regards

    Hi ErikLee,

    Do you have MS Outlook installed on your computer?

    Windows mail import and export opportunities are limited to an Outlook .pst file or an Exchange Server mailbox. They are available only if MS Outlook is installed.
    If MS Outlook is not installed and you start an import or export action, the necessary support files are not present for Windows mail complete the operation. Then I suggest you to install Outlook temporarily and see if the problem is resolved.

    Follow the instructions below and check if the problem is resolved.

    1. reboot your computer, and then start Windows Mail.
    2. on the Tools menu, click Options.
    3. in the connection tab, click on edit to open the Internet Properties dialog box.
    4. in the tab programs, click on an application other than Windows mail e-mail in the e-mail list. Click on apply and then click OK.
    5. click OK again to close the Options dialog box.
    6. exit Windows mail and restart Windows mail.

    If this does not work, I suggest you upgrade to Windows Live Mail to import or export messages that may help you resolve the issue.

    To download Windows Live Mail, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
    http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

    For more information about Windows Live Mail, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address:

  • Need help with mobile layout

    Hello. Need help with my layout sensitive, using straight lines only html5 and css3 that I can understand and explain a novice level please - without any restart. Desktop and mobile are in a single html doc. The desktop version is 'ok '.

    current version (6_2)

    Try to match these mobile Office layouts

    On the mobile version:

    -Impossible to get the buttons nav blocks, vertical text button Align, and align the image of the product (square pictures) to the Center. (margin: auto; does not work)

    I used heights in the header because I'll have code for desktop, mobile and tablet in the CSS so it changes (and do not know how to support better). Also need to Add a link to the logo image background in header.

    Thanks in advance!

    Commenting on just a habit of property changing the css if you have defined it for the desktop version. Your nav elements are not vertically Center because you have a bottom padding set on them for the office, there are only changes for mobile in your css media query.

    .main-nav a {}

    display: block;

    text-decoration: none;

    / * padding-bottom: 15px;   */

    Padding: 12px 0;

    }

    Change the properties for the .product-images for mobile boxes: you have float attached to them for the desktop version and which cascade down to the mobile version, unless you change in the media query:

    .product-image {}

    float: none;

    Width: 50%;

    margin: 0 auto 20px auto;

    }

    As I mentioned in one of my posts related to your project, you will probably have to make your product images a bit larger. They fill the area once they form a column to width of 768px screen or you could resist transform them to one column until a little more by using a media query extra set at a narrow screen width to evoke this action

  • Hello need help with the opacity mask.

    Hello need help with the opacity mask. I hope someone out there can help

    I inherited a logo that appears to use a Logo of OM has a shape with a grad. This grad at first sight is not used in the Grad scheme and there is not editable.  Looking at the transparency palette I find an OM (pic1) output option. If I choose what the grad on separates it from the page of the form, that is from there I can change/remove as required (Note2).

    However, sometimes (he did no change), I'll be back to the same original form and output option is grayed out and is no longer available. Or I go to the similar shape that has the same treatment and I can't go out OM (pic3)

    The only difference is the thumbnail in the transparency palette, which is strong in pic1 and rated on pic3. What Miss me?    I'm not clear what the advantage is simply OM using the Grad palette to apply a grad in my form, but until I can get rid of OM who is there, I can't comfortably apply to the grad I want.

    The white gradient LHS I have no problem with. I choose fortunately only and each time get the possibility of release of OM.

    Screen Shot 2015-08-06 at 12.26.48.pngScreen Shot 2015-08-06 at 12.00.10.pngScreen Shot 2015-08-06 at 12.01.16.png

    The other thing weird. When I select the white gradient. Sometimes, the exit option is in the palette without going through the drop-down list (Fig 4).

    Other times seems not that OM has already been applied, because the palette gives me the ability to mask rather than liberation (5 photos). Until I go to the drop down and then I find Release is an option after all.

    What is the difference here?   Not much of a problem, because either way I can release OM to be able to change the grad.

    The file is passed through several hands and play anywhere to try to resolve issues, and many stops and save slot, so something along the line was of course done a logo and not the other because of the difference, but I can't for the life of me see what that.

    I hope someone can help. Very appreciated


    See you soon

    Dave

    Dave,

    I've (mis) understanding the issues, you can account for the box to the right in the main palette transparency (called thumbnail) here.

    Illustrator help | Transparency and blending modes

    represents the masking objects.

    Some of your screenshots show no object mask, so it only is not really a mask even if do the opacity mask has been clicked and there seems to be one in the layers palette, wherever you look.

    I think that it is perhaps the issue.

  • I'm suddenly needing help with my browser Firefox (6.0.2)

    Hello
    I'm suddenly needing help with my browser Firefox (6.0.2)

    (OS: I use Windows XP).

    When I open the browser, I don't see is a totally white screen of white, with all the toolbars at the top.

    I know that my physical connections are very good: I have tested the modem, turned the pc market etc and I can also receive/send emails.

    This problem started today, September 8, 2011 and has never happened before.

    Is it a coincidence that Firefox itself to day before I disconnected yesterday evening? Could this be something to do with this particular new update?

    I also noticed that just before I "opened" Firefox, I now get a small box indicating:

    [JAVASCRIPT APPLICATION]
    Handl exc in Ev: TypeError: this oRoot.enable is not a function

    This never appeared before - I hope that it offers a clue has what is wrong.

    The browser not be stuck in Mode safe, said by the way.

    Of course, I can't find solutions to the problem on the internet, I don't physically see all Web sites!
    (A friend sends this request in my name from their pc)

    Any light you can throw on this problem of confusion would be much appreciated. I'd rather not have to uninstall and reinstall Firefox if possible.

    If the only option is to uninstall Firefox and reinstall from your site, I'm also in trouble (I can not see the internet or download).
    In this case, would you be able to send the .exe file as an attachment to my e-mail address? In the affirmative, please let me know and I'll give you more details.

    Thanks in advance.

    One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    See:

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions of the origin of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • Need help with patterns of comparison (analytical SQL?)

    Hello Forum users,.

    I have a strange problem on my hands that I cannot think of an effective way to code in Oracle SQL...

    (1) background

    Two tables:

    MEASURES
    IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
    M1 NUMBER
    NUMBER M2
    M3 NUMBER
    M4 NUMBER

    INTERESTING_VALUES
    IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
    M1 NUMBER
    NUMBER M2
    M3 NUMBER
    M4 NUMBER

    (2) OUTPUT NEEDED

    For each line of 'MEASURES', count the number of matches in 'INTERESTING_VALUES' (all lines). Please note that the games could not be in the same column, for example for a given row MEASURES M1 may correspond to INTERESTING_VALUES M3.

    I need to count the 2,3 and 4 matches and provide the values of the County stay.

    I'm not interested in partial matching (for example "superior to" or "less than"), numbers only need to match exactly.

    (You can use the features up to 11g).

    The link below is a guige to install a video card in your Pc.  In particular, it seems that you will have to perhaps specify the location of the new card in the bios and save this change before you install the new card - see step 4 in the guide on the link below.  If your new card fits into the PCI Express x 16 slot, you will need to define PCI Express in the bios and save the changes.

  • Need help with the installer of widows

    Hello, I need help please. I've been downlading an update for my Kodak 5000 series printer. In the middle of the installation, my power went out due to a storm. When I got back to complete the update, the update will not settle. The installer gave me a message saying that it could not complete the installation because of corrupted files. I contacted the support of Kodak, they tried to solve the problem and it was determined that the problem was with the windows installer and that I would need to contact microsoft. Then I tried to run windows update and my updates would not move. He gave me the error code 80070673 and also windows update error code dt000. Can someone please help me solve this problem. I am running vista Home premium service pack 1 edition of widows.

    Hello, Joe

    Try to do a system restore to before it started. Go to start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, open system restore and choose a date when the power is out.

    We can't wait to hear back on your part.

    Hello

    1. Since when are you facing this problem?
    2. you remember to make changes to the system?
    3. do you get an error with this error code?

    I suggest to unplug external devices such as printer, scanner, etc. that are plugged into the system, and then restart the system and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1.
    I suggest you to do a check disk from the recovery console and check if the problem is resolved. Follow the steps mentioned below.
    a. start into the recovery console using the XP CD. Follow the steps mentioned in the article below.

    b. perform a disk check.
