  How can I configure my computer to the simple click with the mouse to double-click to open an item on the desktop instead

  Hi placebow,

  Open the Options folder by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options. On the general tab, click single-click to open an item. (To return to the standard click, click double-click to open an item.)

  The setting applies not only at the office, but also in other areas of the shell.

• Can anyone tell how I can configure the desktop as the default screen that appears when I connect to Win 8?

  Original title: Desktop

  Can anyone tell how I can configure the desktop as the default screen that appears when I connect to Win 8 rather than having to go from the first layer redundant 'start-up '.

  In fact, if anyone can tell if there's a free windback to an earlier version of Windows (7) who has not all layers unnecessary and icons, I would be really grateful

  Your best bet is to switch to 8.1, that allows you to boot directly to the desktop, and then use a menu like debut8 to replace the old Start Menu and hide the side of the metro.

  If your computer comes with Win Pro 8, you may be able to demotion, otherwise, you will need to buy 7. Before you buy 7, I would recommend go to the computer manufacturer's website and see if there are any Windows 7 drivers for your computer. You may lose certain functions - sound, network, video full resolution - if there is no driver.

  The first option is easy and allows you to keep the improvements in performance and safety 8.

• Quick access Acer/turn off the option to boot to the desktop

  I am running Windows 10 on my Aspire AIO. Quick access Acer has a power button to boot to the desktop. I don't know what it's really like Windows 10 boots already straight to the desktop. If I choose to - boot to the desktop, what will do?

  Thank you

  John

  JohnBobin,

  This feature was something set up for Windows 8 really, since it starts up the screen of the tile when it entered in Windows. Since you have 10 Windows and it starts on the screen in any case, you have really no need to switch it on.

  I can't access an AIO which has this feature currently, but I'd be willing to say that if you the activated, the value your AIO tablet mode and rebooted, it would probably start in desktop mode. It's something you can test, if you wish, but I think that this feature can only be ignored at this stage.

• 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.

• How can I prevent the desktop icons move arround whenever a different profile is open?

  We have windows vista with 2 user profiles that are the main ones used.

  How can I add/remove/move the desktop icons on my profile without moving/remove on the profile of other people?

  What is the point of having 2 different profiles, so everything I do on my effects profile profile of others?

  also is it possible to add/remove programs (games, downloads) without doing the same for the other profile of people?

  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.

• XPS 12 / Win 8: how to boot from the recovery partition / reinstall Windows?

  Messed up things on a newly purchased 12 XPS in Windows 8, and I want to boot from the recovery partition and reinstall windows.

  Support online pages point by pressing F8 during startup, but this does not at all.

  How can I access the recovery partition?

  To access to the menu of, , press F2.

  To enter the boot options menu, press F12.

  Because the XPS 12 boots so fast, it is better to repeatedly press F2 or F12 after restarting the machine. During the startup process, texts for options should appear at the bottom right of the screen. If you enter Windows, you will need to restart again and press F2 or F12 until it works. However, I don't think there is an option in the BIOS to restore the computer to its factory condition. The previous post by DELL-VIKRAM M describes how to properly restore the machine to its factory state.
