  • How can I remove the Windows Mail splash screen?

    How can I remove the start of Windows Mail from my computer screen?

    Try this:

    Go to this registry key:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Mail

    Then, create a new DWORD entry and call NoSplash.  Then set the value to 1.

    That's how it worked in OE (see http://www.insideoe.com/faqs/how.htm) and it should work this way in WinMail.

  • I can´t remove old windows

    Frank. I tried to remove old windows as you sugested but the cleanmgr does not have the ability to clean this specific folder in my computer located on the C drive. It search the disc and just give a few other files such as temporary files, etc. The old windows file has 26 GB and it's as much space. What did I miss? Thank you.

    Have you tried simply delete? Seems too simple. However, I know that I got rid of my windows.old and did not use the cleanup utility. However, I may have just moved to an additional drive and Chantilly drive, don't remember the hand and cannot test since it has now disappeared.

  • How can I remove the windows maximum size limit?

    Windows 7 seem to limit the maximum size of a window to "the resolution of the screen + a few pixels.

    I am currently using the resolution 1200 x 768 and want to be the size of a running application to have the size of 1024 x 800 but can't because Windows 7 seems to be limited. I think that it worked well in Windows XP.

    So, how can I make my window larger than the maximum size allowed size?

    Thank you.

    Hi rkdudgh,

    Windows chooses the best display settings, including the screen, refresh rate and color, based on your monitor resolution. These settings differ depending on whether you have an LCD or a CRT monitor. If you want to adjust your display settings or if these settings were changed and you want to restore the default settings, use the following recommendations in the link.

    Get the best display on your monitor

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/getting-the-best-display-on-your-monitor

    It also depends on the limit set for the graphics card available on the computer.

    I suggest that you visit the card manufacturer display download and install the updated driver for the card and the check.

  • How can I remove the Windows, "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" program from my computer

    I use another software Photo and picture Windows and Fax Viewer interferes with my work with the other program. Therefore, I would like to remove the Windows, "Windows picture and Fax Viewer" program from my computer.

    Info for WIndows XP - Windows Picture and Fax Viewer
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    OK... but be careful... you'll lose thumbnails of photos in Windows Explorer...
    your 'My pictures' folder... for example... does not display photos.

    And... FWIW... WP & F Viewer is not a program... it's just a .dll file. Disabling
    the .dll file is basically identical to uninstall. (in this way... If you do not
    as the result... you can reactivate).

    But if "gone forever", that's what you prefer... just delete the shimgvw.dll file.

    Attention last... your thumbnails in the Explorer will be gone.

    How... Disable WP & F Viewer

    Click Start / run and enter the following command:

    Type or copy/paste...
    regsvr32 /u shimgvw.dll
    (Yes, the space after the 2 and you is necessary)

    Press on... Come in...

    (You should see a dialog box indicating:)
    DllUnregisterServer in successful shimgvw.dll)

    How... Reactivate the WP & F Viewer

    Click Start / run and enter the following command:

    Type or copy/paste...
    regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll
    (Yes, the space after the 2 and space after that the i is necessary)

    Press on... Come in...

    You should see a dialog box stating:
    DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in successful shimgvw.dll

    To remove shimgvw.dll go to the following folder and do a right click Delete shimgvw.dll.

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll

    If you can't find the path, you must go to...
    Button start / Control Panel / folder Options.
    See tab /... to check "Show hidden files and folders"...

  • How can I delete old windows files that seem to occupy a large part of my hard drive. I use Vista Home. I have reininstalled OS but only saved the files I never cleaned up old windows.

    I use an older Dell that was handed to them. There are several problems with it and I finally reinstalled winows vista home and worked my way through the updates. Now, the system works well for me but the hard disk is almost full. When I look at the pie it shows post-colonial windows most of the space. I think I should remove the old windows files. Any help? Thank you.

  • How can I remove the Windows Media Player library?

    I have Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Edition and Windows Media Player 12.0.7600.166667.

    I finally got my music organized, so I deleted some files from my computer and moved songs between folders.  It seems that I can't remove all the songs from Windows Media Player which do not exist physically.  I tried to empty my entire library, I could rebuilt it.  In Windows Media Player, I clicked on the music (left), and then I clicked on the first song, hold down the SHIFT key and click the last song so that all my music has been chosen.  Then, I clicked and selected delete.  I said that I wanted to remove JUST the library, no computer.  When he was done, there was still 5501 songs left.  I know that once, I could just delete wmplibrary.db, but I get no hits on that when I get into the field at the bottom of the start menu.  I decided to uninstall Windows Media Player and reinstall, but when I go to start-> Control Panel-> uninstall a program, the only entry I see that looks remotely Windows Media Player is Windows Media Encoder 9 Series... but I wasn't brave enough to try it.

    Any ideas?  Thank you!

    Wow - thank you, my mp3 player thanks and my children thank you!  The convenience store did not help - he told me that my library has been altered... as I didn't know that already!  But the manual method operated very well... but if someone else is reading this for help, I don't have to start my computer in safe mode because one of the files (which was large enough that it WAS probably the file that I needed deleted) was in use with the network share and I had no idea how close anyone who opened.  But in safe mode worked very well.

    Thank you very much for your help!  And thanks for the information on troubleshooting: I had never heard of this before!

  • How can I remove old alerts on the OEM homepage?

    I'm using OEM 11 g.  There is more than 375 alerts sitting in the 'Alert triggered' section on the home page of the OEM.  Some are nearly a year and cash have been resolved and have not always cleared.  I could go through all of them and manually clear an alert, but because of physical constraints, it's a very long process that will take me several hours to manage.  Is it possible to do a manual of clear lot.

    There is also a full tablespace alert for nearly six months who has been treated immediately.  Data files were added and made CanGrow.  Yet that alert remains.  How can I delete it? Christine

    Hello

    I recommend you check the metalink docs below

    Troubleshooting of a spatial database of Tablespace Used (%) Alert problem in Grid Control 10 g, 11g and Dbconsole (Doc ID 403264.1), which also speaks of all problems associated with tablespace known/scenarios pending alerts and the resolution for the same

    Also, one of the way to clear the metric Grid Control alerts is as follows:

    1. connect to grid control

    2. navigate to the target--> databases

    3. go to the home page of the problematic database

    4. click on the 'Settings and policy settings' link under 'related links '.

    5 unset the metric threshold for the desired measure. «Clear all the fields for the metric by clicking on the edit button and click OK/continue»

    6. when the metric collection occurs again, it will clear the alerts.

    7. once the alert is disabled, the metric value the original values

  • Windows 7. How can I remove the Windows media Center programs recommended in the "Open with" section?

    I select which application (Word, Excel, etc.), they all open with Windows Media Center. This happened recently and I don't know how to cancel it. I see the Windows Media Center in the 'Open with' box where it asks you to "choose the program you want to use to open this file. How I remove it from the section "recommended programs"? I see that Internet Explorer is also in this section. What should be there as well? What actually belongs to this group?

    "I see the Windows Media Center in the 'Open with' box where it asks you to"choose the program you want to use to open this file"." How I remove it from the section "recommended programs"? »

    A pretty easy regedit should remove an application from the section "recommended programs". Here is a procedure step by step on how to do it. Unfortunately, I don't think that will solve your problem. What seems actually to have occurred is either your .lnk .exe (or maybe both) have inadvertently been associated with WMC. Out of the list of the programs recommended for the open with dialog box will not change. In fact, the next time that you open the program, it will open in WMC and add automatically return a program recommended in the open with dialog box.

    There really should not be whatever it is that you open a .lnk or .exe with because you really don't want to open them... you want to run. To determine if the .lnk or .exe associated with wrong, you can either watch the extension file associations in the control panel > programs, or you can see if it's a shortcut or the actual executable file that does. Need to know who, or if she is at the same time, in order to complete the fix.

    Once you know it, this link will show you how to restore the default file type link. Matter of fact, now that I think of it, it wouldn't hurt to just restore default settings for .lnk and .exe.

    "I see that Internet Explorer is also in this section. What should be there as well? What actually belongs to this group? " I may be wrong, but I do not believe, you should really see anything in the open with dialog for a .lnk or .exe. Again, you don't want to really not open them... you want to run. The shortcut .lnk file goes to the executable and runs the .exe program.
