How can I stop windows 7 using environment variables?

I want to just use a software on my computer and I want to shut down the computer at the point where I stop the program, I could do Windows XP creating a variable of environment for this, but in windows 7. I can't do that anyway, what can I do?

Thank you

Hello eduardohuarcaya jose Dominguez.

Unfortunately, in Windows 7 you can not stop computer when you close the program. However, you can use Task Scheduler to work around your needs. You can schedule a task to trigger an action to shut down the computer. However, this will be based on the time corresponding to the program.

    I do not use Windows Live Messenger, but he insists on the display of alerts telling me to connect. Why it does this and how can I stop without causing problems in other areas? I know nothing about it except that the people who try to contact me (I guess) can do it without going through channels such as email or telephone.

    Short of uninstalling this program (if that is even possible), how can I stop to open at startup and it detach all the time in the taskbar?  Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    I can help you to stop Live Messenger from running at startup but don't know why it won't let you it detach from the task bar. It should leave you with the right button and choose "unpin this program from the taskbar".
    On the login screen when messenger starts first, click Help on the right with the (?) and in the menu on the button, put a check mark next to "show the menu bar.
    OK - now you can access the menus at the top of the window. Go to tools-> Options.
    In the window that appears, click "sign in" on the list on the left and uncheck the box to the top right ("automatically run Windows Live Messenger when I log on Windows ')
    Next time you reboot, Live Messenger doesn't have to load at startup.
    It may be useful to uninstall and download again to see if there is a updated version that works better.

  • How can I stop Windows XP open My Documents on startuo?

    Hello

    I just reinstalled Windows XP Pro and after installation of SP2 evert time I start Windows automatically open My Documents.

    How can I stop this?

    Thank you.

    You have a false entry in one of your startup locations.

    First, click Start > all programs > startup and see if there is an entry that would open up My Documents.

    If you can't find the entry in the startup folder, download and run Autoruns.  Let it complete the scan (shown bottom left), then click the 'connection '.  Look at the entries and the beginning my Documents should be obvious.  Remove the line or uncheck the box at the beginning of the line (if you think you might ever want to reactivate this entry).

  • How can I stop Windows 7 open several instances of a .txt file in Notepad?

    If accidentally, I try to open a second instance of a .txt file in Notepad, I want Windows 7 to remember that another instance is already open.

    It was, in Windows XP, whenever you tried to accidentally open a second instance of a .txt file in Notepad, you would get a message that will tell you that another instance was already open. However, it seems that in Windows 7, you can have multiple instances of the same .txt file open in Notepad (without getting any notification). It is confusing because I tend to make changes to one of these instances given, and when I save one of these cases, I eventually overwrite the changes on other instances.

     
    How can I stop this from happening? I can't turn on a pop-up message in Windows 7 that reminds me that another instance is open? Can I change a setting in my Notepad file to prohibit the opening of multiple instances?
     

    Hello


    Opening of multiple instances of the same file in Notepad is by design.

  • How can I stop the process using the trigger Disqualification?

    How can I stop and start the process using triggers in Disqualification?  While planning a job, I can not able to see the folder of trigger / trigger name in the tool palette? What kind of file should be placed in the Triggers folder. If you know someone, let me know. If someone has shared an example script which is very useful for me.

    Thanks in advance.

    Malila Chandra.

    It is a common use case.

    You create a job that has a closed Web Services trigger configured before executing the first phase (right click on the stage in the Task Manager, select Configure, you will then see this screen below), with the work or or jobs you need to added stop. This must be configured to be 'blocking', i.e. the rest of the work expected on the triggering comprehensive action.

    Work should have a phase which refreshes the data staging, and another phase (or a phase of post trigger) that returns your work in normal real time (using the trigger on the job).

  • How can I stop Windows 8 Start menu from popping up when I drag my mouse around using my touchpad?

    On my new laptop, whenever I try to go on the left side of my screen on the right side by sliding my finger on the touchpad, the start menu appears. How can I disable this?

    Hi friend

    Welcome to the Microsoft community,

    I preached this whole week... my pleasure to increased win8 x 100 once I turned off the edge of the touchpad scan function.  The path may be slightly different, but the synaptics touchpad is the Control Panel / hardware and audio / mouse / device settings / settings / edge shot - and disable "enable edge scans".

    This prevents context changes maddening when browsing the web or doing anything on the touch pad really... you can always access the charms on the right upper or lower, and you can always access history FRO the top left corner after that you disable this... but it is much more controlled.
    hope this helps!
    Tell me when you read this all & if the problem will still be there, then I'll help you.
    Thank you.
  • How can I stop Windows Messenger from starting automatically

    I have never used Windows Messenger.  I recently bought / implement a system refurbished with XP Home - after about a month of use, the Herald began popping up automatically whenever I start the machine, or when I open Outlook Express (and immediately requires a screen name access code (whenever it starts, even if I gave him once to satisfy) (, so I have two things to cancel).

    As I say, he began to do this by himself without conscious action on my part, a few weeks after the introduction of the machine. I had an older XP machine for 6 years and never seen it happen.

    Two questions: 1) is this a normal behavior to require a name to screen EACH time it starts? I would have thought that it would save one associated with the connection.

    (2) how can I do to stop the automatic aperture? I don't necessarily want to kill-I can actually try to use it someday. I just that it quietly hide in the system tray, as it has always done before.

    To stop the Messenger to start with Windows:

    (1) right-click on the Windows Messenger icon in the system tray.
    2) click Open.
    (3) in Windows Messenger, click on tools, then click Options.
    4) click the Preferences tab.
    (5) in the preferences, uncheck the "run Windows Messenger when Windows starts" and "Allow Windows Messenger to run in the background", and then click Ok.

    To prevent Outlook Express from loading Messenger

    (1) open Outlook Express
    2) click Tools, Options
    3) click on general tab
    (4) uncheck the box to automatically log on to Windows Messenger
    5) click OK Microsoft Security MVP, 2004-2009

  • Hi How can I install windows 8 using an iso image

    What should I do to install windows 8 to from an iso image and put it on a flash drive thank you

    Hi Reynardo,

    I would be grateful if you could answer the following questions:

    1. You try to perform a clean installation or upgrade of Windows?
    2. Which Windows operating system is installed on the computer?

    You must download the ISO from Microsoft and you must burn the ISO on DVD or USB to be able to install Windows 8 on your machine. You need an earlier version of the Windows operating system to install Windows 8.

    If you have purchased an upgrade key.  Check out the link on how to upgrade from Windows 8 by using the upgrade key: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-IN/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only.

    See also the suggestion provided by Andre Da Costa: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-windows_install/instructions-how-to-create-a-iso-for-windows-81/85ddf565-0b4f-4867-a926-6af73f5eb4e9

    You can perform a new installation of Windows 8.1 or Windows 8 using the installation media, such as a DVD or USB flash drive. You need not a previous version of Windows installed on your PC to perform a clean Windows 8.1 installation, but you do it for Windows 8. If your PC does not have a version of Windows already installed, you need to install an earlier version of Windows or buy Windows 8.1 or a System Builder of Windows 8 version from a local retailer if it is available in your country or region.
