  • How can I add "Shut down" as an option for the action of the Power button if it is not available

    How can I add "Shut down" as an option for the action of the Power button if it is not available.

    Hello

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community and thanks for posting the question. Looks like you want to add shut down as an option for the power button.

    Visit this link and try the steps mentioned:

    There are two ways to change what happens when you press the power button on your computer. You can change what happens when you press the power button on your computer case (or the edge of your laptop) and you can change what happens when you press the close button in the start menu.

    I prefer to have a button on the toolbar that I sometimes forget the control + O shortcut. Looks like a major omission. How can I add that?

  • How to restore items where my images are returned in the top left corner when it is open, and they have a "mesh" around them? Something to reset elements so that the image appears in the center of the box... I can't have more than 1 in. image

    How to restore items where my images are returned in the top left corner when it is open, and they have a "mesh" around them? Something to reset elements so that the image appears in the center of the box... I can't have more than 1 image open at the same time to work on. I e I can't pass a layer on the image to the other.

    OK - I got out my trusty Photoshop Elements 10 - The Missing Manual and figured it out. What I was trying to describe, it was how to make images with 'tab' images 'floating '? This has somehow reset without my knowledge. What you need to do to get your images 'Floating' back is to click on "EDIT" in your editor - at the bottom of the drop-down list hover your cursor to "GÉNÉRAL" and click on - at the bottom of the drop-down list, click in the bottom left box 'ALLOW FLOATING DOCUMENTS IN FULL EDIT MODE' - and then click OK.

    That solved my problem!

    Does anyone know how I can remove this program that has no program folder, no registry keys, but still works? I can still print from this computer, but cannot access the HP Director (a function to scan, print, clean & align print head, etc.), which is what started this process of trying to uninstall/reinstall the program.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated...

    My system is;

    Dell Dimension 4550

    Windows XP Pro w/SP-3 (version 2002)

    Of photo TakerYN...

    This message can be considered "solved!" I was finally able to remove the program with the HP disk. I tried to reinstall (overwrite) the program, but I received a message that the installer has detected that the program is already installed. I wanted to try it manually, so I 'opened' the disc, you click on "setup" and received the same message. At this point, I was ready to try anything and noticed the "Launcher" icon and thought, what the heck, can't hurt to try at this stage, so I clicked it. I wasn't expecting the screen, I had, who said that it would be to uninstall the program. I thought it was too good to be true and easy way (after all), but after that it's over, I checked my Add/Remove programs and my 'problem' program was gone.

    Thought I would post this so anyone who might encounter the same problem can try this.

    Then, leaving open, open a second instance of the desktop or Windows explorer and navigate to the program you want to start automatically. Their right and drag the program to your startup folder. When you release the right mouse button, the choices that you are given, choose "Create shortcut here."

  • How can I move a program from one letter to the next?

    My drive is running out of memory & I want to spend a great program to a different drive letter. I have windows xp installed, service pk 3. How can I do this?

    Due to the unpredictable registry entries that create programs to install there where are stored other files associated with this program, the only safe way to move a large program on a different drive is to uninstall your current drive (Control Panel-> Add/Remove Programs) and reinstall it to your replacement meter.  There is no easier way to move unless the manufacturer of this program has provided a utility to do this.
