How can I PIN Hotmail at the START screen in Windows 8?

I try to put as much USEFUL information on the screen of BOOT of Windows 8.  It is the screen that is displayed first after logging in Windows 8.  right now I have to go to the OFFICE to get to an email which is an extra step.  Any help is appreciated here.

You say you want actually slab on your Start that will lead you to your Hotmail page in Internet Explorer? If Yes:

To add a tile at the beginning who opens the Office of IE10 for Hotmail

1. open IE10 Desktop then go to your Hotmail Inbox.

2. click on Tools "cog" (top-right), and then select Add a Site to the start screen.

To add a tile at the beginning that opens modern IE10 (aka metro) to Hotmail

1. open modern IE10 then go to your Hotmail Inbox.

2 right-click anywhere, and then click the PIN site icon (it looks like a bug - row at the bottom of the icons, 3rd from the right) and select Pin to Start.

The foregoing will not be live tiles.

The Microsoft Mail application can be used for Hotmail accounts and will have a live tile showing when the new mail arrived. Its features are far too limited for my taste.

Windows Live Mail is a free alternative that can be used with Hotmail. When pinned at the beginning, it will not be a live tile showing the incoming mail, however. Please see:

  • How can I bypass password and the Welcome screen on windows 7?

    starting with W 7, I get an error of soul and user password. When I click ok I have 2 icons with a request of the users password. If I click ok it goes to the Welcome screen. How can I clean it and go directly to windows without password and home screen?

    There is no error message.  As long as you have two accounts with the listed names so there is no problem.

    If there is nothing wrong with the system, then you can go directly to any account chosen by:

    1 click on the Start button and in the search box, type netplwiz

    2 right-click on the shortcut resulting & select run as administrator.

    3 in netplwiz dialog box, check the option "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select the user account Standard that you want to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight, and then click apply. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted, or leave blank if there is no password.  Then, return to the dialog netplwiz new & still having that same account selected, uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer" then click OK.

    I do not pretend to create 2 accounts and more admin accounts that you use for day-to-day operations. It is a useful protection against the corruption of the user profiles.  No matter what profile can become corrupt and if that is the only admin account that you suddenly find you have serious problems. Operation with two spare admins [which serve just to allow tasks like facilities] protects these two accounts safe against the risk of corruption of the profile day and ensures that you will have access to the system if your normal accounts is screwed up.

  • How can I restart firefox with the same tabs and windows?

    How can I restart firefox with the same tabs and windows?

    It is not in the file menu or tools. I get nothing when searching for help. FF still knows how to do it, say to update extensions.

    I know that I can do by saving my session, coming out, reboot and restore the session but is there a single command to do this?

    Thank you. -David

    I have attached a screenshot showing how to select restore automatic session just above the setting of the Home Page where it says "When Firefox starts".

    With this set, you can restart Firefox manually out using the menu-

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    -and then restart Firefox.

    If you want a real reboot with a click of button, you can check something on the Add-ons site: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/

    I used flash in its early versions, but didn't have a reason to use it for many years. I installed it on my desktop and now find myself needing to use it for a small project. So I open the program, and of course, it is open to this really annoying splash screen. and it turns out that I can't find any way to leave this splash screen. My screen resolution is at 1024 X 768, and I can see easily all the splash screen. But what I don't see is somehow too leave this screen which is a real issue because it allows me to continue my project. I even chose one of the enumerated option; "Flash project", but still the splash screen does not disappear.

    How can I get rid of the splash screen & can I make disappear forever. ???

    When you open CS6 and that you can't get anywhere, you can always select Preferences. There, under general, you can select which shows when you open Flash Pro. Change the welcome move on screen.

  • How to remove an item from the start menu in Windows 7?

    I tried to install a game written for an earlier version of Windows.  It did not work, but when I uninstalled the program, he left an icon in my Start menu.  I can't find a way to delete the item in my Start menu.

    If I click on the link, I get a message that says that this is not a valid Win32 application.

    If I right click on the link, I get options:
    Play
    Run as administrator
    More games from Microsoft
    Support
    PIN to the taskbar
    PIN to Start Menu
    Sort by name

    I miss the opportunity, we usually need to change the Menu start manually!

    I did all that, although I had to 'Show hidden files' in two different places, but the guarded program reappear, even after that I deleted everything that I could find that had "Lemmings" in there.  I had installed the program on the D drive and I could delete it, but the next time I saw the Start Menu, it would put a file on drive D named Lemmings Revolution.exe (with no data in this document, 0 bytes).

    I tried the support link from Microsoft and the thought that should work, but alas, I didn't have the product code to enter the FixIt program when asked.

    I finally took a huge risk Open regedit and then sought to any occurrence of the word "Lemmings".  I deleted everything in the registry that referenced "Lemmings", then returned to the D drive (in the command prompt) and deleted the above programme, after that I restarted my computer.

    So far, it seems to have solved the problem...

    (I knew after you remove some of the registry keys, one of the contained key code product I could entered the FixIt program, but by then I had already made changes.)

    Thanks to everyone who tried to help me!

  • How can I get rid of the blue screen error?

    Original title: Windows Vista Start does not

    Hello
    I have Windows Vista Home Premium, and I've had it for 5 years now (2006-) the problem is that I don't know what happened, but when it restarts, I have two options;

    Startup Startup Repair (recommended)
    Start Windows normally

    When I choose "Start Windows normally", a blue screen appears with an error message and disappears quickly, leading me to restart my Vista again. However, when I select Launch Startup Repair tool, it takes a while and after a bit, it ask if I want to send the error to microsoft (recommended) and I choose Yes, and it takes a little more time to look for a solution. Finally, a list of appropriate actions appear;

    Startup Repair; I tried this 8 times now, and he cannot find a solution, leading me to reboot once more.
    System restore; I tried ALL the dates of the restoration, and none of them worked. I got an error saying: it cannot restore.
    Restore the computer; 1. I don't have a backup drive (it's a shame, I know) and 2. I don't want back up and lose all my files.
    Windows Memory Diagnostic tools; I checked all hardware error, and none have been found.
    Command prompt; I don't know what to do with it.

    If someone can PLEASE help me, I would be VERY grateful. I have very old memories and photos on this computer and I don't want to lose these. I am begging for someone to help me, and my last priority would be to forget all these photos and files and move: (.) Oh and I tried running safe mode, by pressing F8 while the computer restarts and I've highlighted Mode safe mode with networking, but it gives a quick overview of a blue screen just and hangs on reboot. Please help me on the procedure to follow for the good of my IMPORTANT files and memories.

    Thank you, in advance.

    Hi AffanX,

    Method 1: Try to disable automatic reboot in the menu start-up advanced options, and then try to capture the blue screen error message, see the link below:

    Advanced-Startup-options-including-safe-mode

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode 

    Method 2: Disconnect all external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) readers, etc...)  Except the keyboard and mouse and then start.

    If this solves the problem, then add back devices at a time until you discover the piece of hardware causing the issue.  Then get any drivers\software update for the device.

    After disconnecting all external devices, run the Startup Repair
