  Hi JexterMaxim,

  1. what type of user accounts that you use?
  2. don't you log on as an administrator?
  3. don't you make changes to the agreement of the issue occur?

  When you install a program, you will need to select the installation option in particular only to user accounts. Not in user accounts. You can try the following steps.

  Desktop shortcuts are stored in one of two places:
  (a) in c:\Users\Public\Desktop. These shortcuts are shared and are visible to the user ever.
  (b) in c:\Users\UserName\Desktop. These shortcuts are not shared and are visible to the user.

  When you right click on a shortcut, and then click general, then you can see where this particular shortcut is stored.

  To make a shortcut of the group a) visible to yourself, do this method:
  a. drag the shortcut to the side with the right button of the mouse.
  b. Select "copy". You have now two seemingly identical shortcuts.
  c. delete the original shortcut.

• How can I restore my desktop icons and the taskbar icons

  I tried to open a file with a program's .lnk and her was not recognized in the program, and now my desktop icons and my icons to the taskbar was converted into icons for the program. How to get this back? I need to know how to do this in Windows 7.

  [Moved from comments]

  There are some patches for the issue that you siding, but most of them requires registry changes that I do not say that they can cause several other problems. I recommend that you perform a system restore.

  There are two ways to perform the system restore:

  Menu start open, click Run and type cmd to open the command prompt.

  Type CD... to book only c:\.

  Type windows CD then CD System32, and then restore.

  After once, you'll find yourself in c:\ windows\system32\restore >

  Type restrui.exe press ENTER.

  Once the system restore the open window then click on next to select any available restore point.

  This process takes a few minutes to do the restore and please make sure that once this process has begun there wont be reversible and or you will lose all personal data.

  Another way to perform the system restore is to open the safe mode by clicking on F8 at startup and check the option of safe mode, then still a dialog box opens to ask the system restore and then follow the steps above.

• How can I get my desktop icon back scanner

  Hi, Sean

  I'm happy to announce that I now have my scanner to work.  I did as you suggested but I couldn't find an HPOfficejet file in the HP folder I found a bin folder in the folder of imagery but not scan.exe, but there was no scan file.exe inside.

  In any case, I have reinstalled the driver full features which I installed with the default settings.  When I got through everything that was there was the icon on my desktop solution Center.

  I did a scan and everything works fine.

  Thank you for everything.

• How can I lock the desktop icons?

  I can't LOCK the icon on my desktop items. I clicked right on the desktop and via the locking elements checked properties, but they are easily moved and NOT locked. I tried to lock in "Appearances and themes", but they will NOT lock. How can I get that they cease to move and stay put locking. Any help would be graciously appreciated. And, no, I'm not changing my resolution I know moves them.

  Hi there, have you tried? Click with the right button on a blank space on your desktop, highlight the icons on the desktop, check on "locking up icons" and organize the uncheck'auto?

• How can I pin the desktop icon in the taskbar

  Before I bought my new computer with windows 8, I used to have the desktop icon in my taskbar (very useful for when I have a lot of windows open at the same time and need to access the icons on my desktop).  I would click on the desktop icon in the taskbar and hey presto all other open windows minimize all without the need to reduce to a minimum to each of them individually. Ideal for quick hide all open files!  However, I can't figure out how to get the desktop icon in my taskbar in windows 8.  Can anyone help?

  Windows key + M does the same thing. Also move the mouse to the lower right of the task bar is also.

• How can I make an imported picture smaller without changing the size of the canvas?

  After downloading the free icons, I used the method drag-and - déposer to put the icon of my choice on a blank canvas of 313 x 188 pixels. The image is larger that I need it to be, so I need to make the image smaller while keeping the size of the canvas to 313 x 188 pixels. I tried several things after Google search, but have had no luck. Help; I'm still learning! Thanks in advance!

  CTRL/cmd-T will show the transformation. Then just drag the handles to resize - hold down the SHIFT key to constrain the proportions.

• How can I make multi-dpi icons in an IconItemRenderer?

  My first custom of building IconItemRenderer and I have trouble getting my multi-DPI of graphic resources to display properly.  Basically, I don't know how to do this.  I can do that quite easily in a button (or any where else, I can use the MultiDPIBitmapSource) but I don't know how to do this in ActionScript.

  Can someone lead me to a tutorial (or just give me the answer)?

  Currently, I simply called a single asset like this:

  private void communicationIconDisplay(item:Object):Object {}

  var icon: Class;

  var comm:CommunicationInformation = CommunicationInformation (item);

  Switch (comm.typeId) {}

  case CommunicationInformation.PHONE:

  display the icon on the phone

  icon = AssetStore.getInstance () .phone160;

  break;

  case CommunicationInformation.EMAIL:

  view email icon

  icon = AssetStore.getInstance () .emailAt160;

  break;

  etc etc.  Thank you!

  You can do something like this:

  Switch (applicationDPI) {}

  case DPIClassification.DPI_320: {}

  break;

  }

  case DPIClassification.DPI_240: {}

  break;

  }

  case DPIClassification.DPI_160: {}

  break;

  }

  }
