Help and Support of problem with Windows 7

Am I right in thinking that help and Support is not available in offline mode with Windows 7?  Because one of my problems is a difficulty with an internet connection, I especially need help offline and Support, but it does not work: 'research' find nothing and the pages that appear are not connected to my question.

Hi derrybyrne,

Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers Community Forums.

Windows 7 help and Support as a built-in feature in all of its editions, you can access it in offline mode by pressing F1 or by clicking Help and about Internet Explorer.

If you get the search results not related to your question, then you must be connected online to get help with your problem help and Support.

Alternatively, you can ask a question to Microsoft Answers concerning the problem you are having with your Internet connection in the section Networking, e-mail and put online .

Alternatively, you can also use Troubleshooter in Windows 7, which you can access in Control Panel of-> items-> troubleshooting Control Panel

Hope this helps you.

  • "My external hard drive does not appear in Windows Explorer and cannot open 'Help and Support', an error message" Windows cannot open help and Support because a system service is not ongoing.

    Original title:

    Everything was fine until yesterday. Juice now, when I plugged the external HD into the USB port it does not appear in the 'my computer' window. It is recognized by the computer as it is present on the list of the "Disk Clean Up" and it also appears when I click on ' Safe Remove Hardware ' on the taskbar. But if she does not appear in the 'my computer' window I can't work with it or don't even know what it I have arquived in it.

    Trying to find a solution, I realized that same 'information system' to 'System tools' is also not available. Pops up a window saying that "Windows cannot open help and Support because a system service is not ongoing enforcement. " To resolve this problem, start the service named help and Support '. OK, I tried to open 'Help and Support' ' Start Menu ' and the same window appeared again to "not have a system service that runs". I don't know what her soul precisely and I have not the slightest idea of what I need to do to correct this 'disappearance' of Service 'system '. There is nothing without the appearance of HD in the window of thw work? Everything else works fine and the calculation is virus-free. What should I do?

  • The guide to "Help and Support Center" installed for Windows XP Media Center 2004 is largely outdated and must be updated.

    I have version Dell of Windows Media Center 2005 (service pack 3) installed on my XPS 600 desktop computer.  The installed Help and Support Center guide date for use with Windows Media Center 2004 and has never been updated to include most of the changes system over the past six years. Dell or Microsoft should be responsible for the update of the guides or instructions that are installed on the operating system. Not only that, but Media Center and Movie Maker themselves also grossly neglected as updates are concerned.
    The currently installed Help and Support Center guide is missing details on significant changes to Windows applications and utilities.  I rely on up-to-date information to make changes to my OS applications and utilities.  There is a lot of information in this guide that is incomplete and misleading and therefore not very reliable.
    I have an OEM of Windows XP version and I wonder if there is an update of current or replacement for this system guide and who is responsible for the update.

    Nothing in XP will be updated. The current Windows operating system is Windows 7. XP is already three iterations of the windows behind. A great substitute for the XP search feature (which was never very good) is Agent free Ransack.

  • Errors in Windows 7 with Windows Help and Support, network connection, and the system restore

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 (4 years), sometimes overheated with heavy use. Normally I can cool, restart and wear. However, my laptop just overheated and closes, and this time I encounter all sorts of problems.
    First of all, after the reboot, I noticed that the system does not automatically connected to my Wi - Fi (it does not even recognize the available network).
    Secondly, in attempting to fix the network problem, I clicked on the link "Troubleshooting", only to receive the following error message "an unexpected error has occurred. ID of Package cannot continue the Troubleshooting Wizard": unknown path: C:\Windows\diagnostics\system\networking error Code: 0x8007045A

    Third, because troubleshooting did not work, I thought I'd try the help and Support Windows to search for answers. However, when I opened it, I received the following message: "Windows Help and support has encountered a problem. You might be able to solve the problem by restarting Windows Help and Support. If the problem persists, proceed as follows: 1. search the online help on the Windows website.  2. contact your manufacturer of computers or Microsoft Support for assistance. There could be a problem with one or more Windows system files or folders on your computer. "Because I could not connect to the internet, these suggestions and links were useless.

    Fourthly, as I failed to locate the problem, I tried a system restore. However, after he appeared to run (took about 30 min) and restarted Windows, the following message appeared: "system restore was not entirely successful. The system files and settings on your computer did not change. Details: System Restore could not access a file. This is probably because an antivirus program is running on the computer. Temporarily disable your antivirus and restart System Restore. An unspecified error occurred during system restore. (0x80070005)
    You can try the system restore again and choose a different restore point. If you continue to see this error, you can try an advanced recovery method. For more information, see what is recovery? "I have disable my antivirus (AVG), tried and received the same error message.

    Short physically all my backup files and restore to factory settings, I think I've exhausted what I can do.

    * EDIT * after scouring the site, I found a suggestion to run the tool via the command prompt System File Checker (see thread here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/no-internet-connection-on-this-computer-after/83fb22c9-712e-467d-9a68-f8d52dde9bcb), which I did and found some corrupted files. The following response appears: "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and repaired successfully details can be found in the CBS.log newspaper... File system changes will take effect after the next reboot. "After restarting, the internet connection problem seems to have been resolved. Service work. and Windows Help and Support also works! I hope it helps someone else!

    Hi Lorenacadi,

    Thanks for sharing of the resolution. Your efforts and patience are highly appreciated.

    In addition to the emission of heat:

    Two things inside the laptop generate heat - power (in the place where the power cord plugged in) and the processor.  The CPU has a heater and a fan to help disperse the heat and keep the CPU at a reasonable temperature.  Hot air is sent on the vents, and air at room temperature between in other events.
    What happens generally is dust forms near the vents, near the Airways within the laptop computer which lead to the mouths and on the CPU fan itself.  All these sources of dust cause airflow slow down, so that the hot air lingers and gets even hotter.  To resolve this problem, you will need to take the laptop apart and 'very good' to clean the dust and the CPU fan.

    Another potential source of heat which would be composed of dust problem might be software related.  More 'work' the CPU must do the most energy is needed and therefore more heat is released.

    Keep us in case you have questions/suggestions more associated with Windows.
