  • How to disable the drop-in by a "standard user" in Windows Vista

    I use Windows Vista and I have a standard user account. The Welcome Center appears each time I have windows to connect.  I uncheck the box in the lower left corner in the visitor centre, but it does not work.  He always keeps showing upwards. Also, I try to use regedit to remove the entry in the race, but surprisingly I was not allowed to delete the entry because I'm a standard user. So please tell me how to disable the reception centre for a standard user.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello Jackyhn,

    You can make a registry change using the following key:

    Method 1: Go to the Windows Vista registry editor

    To disable Windows Vista Welcome Center with editing the registry:

    • Type regedit in Windows Vista start menu search box.
    • Highlight:
    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion, Run.
    • Right-click on the WindowsWelcomeCenter key and select Delete.
      Reboot your system.

    Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.

    If please reply back and let us know if this suggestion has helped.

  • How to disable the automatic launch of Soft Front Panel?

    So, I foolishly decided to my NO-Scope to launch automatically when I insert the USB cable to my PC.

    I can't figure out how to disable this option. OR Scope does not appear in my AutoPlay settings in Control Panel.

    I use Windows 7.

    If you know the answer, I would like to know also. Thank you.

    Right, I do not expect the device appears in the AutoPlay list since our driver does not AutoPlay API at all.

    I managed to reproduce the problem that you have on my machine, and I was able to fix, follow these steps:

    1. disconnect the equipment

    2. right click on the icon "monitor of devices OR" in the system tray

    3. Select 'clear all device associations '.

    4. click on "Yes" in the dialog box "are you sure that...". ».

    Turns out that the monitor of devices OR implements its own custom 'AutoPlay' form that is not connected to the Windows API at all.

    I hope this helps!

    Kind regards

    Hi ZucOrc,

    (1) since when are you facing this problem?

    (2) remember to make changes?

    Diagnose and repair Windows files and folders problems automatically
    Difficulty of broken desktop shortcuts and common system maintenance tasks

  • How to disable the auto launch in canon EOS utility on my mac?

    Can someone let me know if you can disable this automatic launch. I'd like to use capture one, utliity eos on my computer as a backup plan. With the eos utility auto launches it will not capture to mount the camera. I tested it on my tour where I have the utility and capture works perfectly. So I think this is the device of auto-launch or it could just be that eos is installed and which has precedence.

    I use the eos utility 2 - 2.14.20.2 with a mark II

    My os is Yosemite 10.10.5

    Thanks in advance for any help

    See you soon,.

    In the Canon utilities in the Applications folder, there will be an EOS Utility folder. In this case would be an EOS Utility application and EOS Utility 3 folder. If you run the application it gives you the icon on the menu bar.

  • How to disable the automatic updates of windows and to update on demand

    At the same time, I had disabled the automatic updates of windows and updated on demand by opening windows update.  Where is the place to activate and deactivate the automatic updates of windows.

    It worked.  Thank you!

    I wasn't able to get automatic updates to download a microsoft windows update.  The fix for microsoft in default mode indicated that he needed to be repaired and that fixed it.  When windows update was used again the update has failed once again.  The fix even that it was then run in aggressive mode and with a recheck has failed to correct the problem.  At each restart, automatic updates took the time to start producing a yellow shield and then pop-up reminders.  So thank you to help us with these questions to disable the automatic updates of windows.

    Thanks for posting the results of your efforts, I don't know they will be read and appreciated.

  • How to disable the automatic updates?

    Hi all

    I would like to disable the automatic updates and be able to manually check for updates without it becomes a task complicated.

    The only answer I could find so far is the following: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/disable-auto-updates-application-manager.html

    Is this the only solution? Because, in reading the notes, also seem to which would prevent me from easily control updates. Have I misunderstood?

    I absolutely need to do because when I'm at work, in my office, I have absolutely no problem connecting.

    But coming to the House, in a very rural village with a... Let's say "connecting powered-pigeons", automatic updates can become a serious problem for me.

    Thank you in advance!

    Acrobat has its own settings to update.  Open your preferences and disable the auto update.  I'm no expert, but Acrobat seems to be a strange duck in the world of CC.  Although it is part of the CC, it still seems to work more as a stand-alone product.

  • HP Probook 650 G1: How to disable the keys way to Probook 650 G1 running Windows 7, 64-bit

    I just bought a HP Probook G1, intel i7 650 - 4600 m, system BIOS 01.34-08/28/2015, keyboard review KBC 16.3 C version.

    ESC and F1 through F12 function keys seem to be in the Mode of action key (for example flight gives HP, F6 system information allows you to change the audio levels, etc.)- and I prefer to keep the standard functions of these keys (for shortcuts in Word and Excel, also for Express Scribe transcription software).

    I found Ctrl + Fn + the function key corresponding is workaround to achieve some (but not all) the standard functions - but which is cumbersome when used frequently. Workaround doesn't seem to work for the ESC key.

    I saw a few tips on how to disable the Mode keys on some laptops HP - eg
    http://support.HP.com/au-en/document/c02035108

    - and I have used this method on the previous laptop HP (e.g. Pavilion G6), but it does not work for this Probook. The configuration screen of the BIOS on my new machine does not seem to show the key Action Mode (or same System Configuration) as an option.

    I would be grateful for suggestions.

    Problem is now resolved, thanks to HP Technical Support phone line. Their tips were:

    * go to the BIOS Setup in the usual way (shut down, then power on, press ESC, choose F10 for Bios configuration)

    * Choose the Information System

    * arrow above to advance

    * Choose the Configuration of the device

    * Uncheck the Fn key switch

    * Save, etc.

    The corresponding option is more referred to Action Mode button for this model of HP laptop, at least not for the version of BIOS this Probook 650 G1 (worm 1.36, 25/04/2016).

  • How to avoid the automatic launch of SignalExpress with a USB instrument?

    When I plug in (or activate) a USB instrument (I have 2 USB power sensors and a signal RF N9310A Agilent generator) - SignalExpress 2009 will launch automatically.  It is very annoying (and apparently by default) behavior.  With 3 switched instruments, I get 3 instances of SignalExpress which must be closed.  Anyone know how to disable this feature?  Of course, I'm sure I could just uninstall SignalExpress altogether, but not this option, what is the solution?  I'm running on Windows 7, with LV 2009 Professional.

    After some research, I found the solution.  As I said in the original post, it's Windows 7, so this may be a problem of Windows 7-specific.

    To disable the autorun of SignalExpress property when you plug a USB T & M class in Windows 7:

    1 run the configuration utility AutoPlay from the Windows Control Panel (Panel of-> hardware) and sound-> AutoPlay, or simply type AutoPlay in Windows Startup box.

    2. scroll to the bottom of the list and you will see-> Test and measurement device. Change the selection to "Control Instrument using LabVIEW SignalExpress" to "not act."

    3. Save and you're done.

    I suggest you this info. added using SignalExpress for the next version.
