• How to remove particular notification area icons?

  Hello

  I would like to ask your help how to remove particular notification area icons (Windows 7 Professional). I mean, this isn't just 'Show' or 'hide '.

  For example, I want to delete VLC Media Player and Microsoft Office OneNote in the list.

  In addition, I don't want to restore the system icons, because all the icons will be removed.

  Thanks a lot if you could provide solutions step by step.

  You just want to remove the icons, or you want to stop the
  programs icons are to run in the background?
   
  If you just want to remove the icons, but keep the programs running,
  You should check the programs themselves to see if they offer
  you have this option. But if you want to stop background programs
  start automatic and running, read the following:
   
  First of all, note that you should be in * all * programs that
  starts automatically, not only those who enter the system tray
  (notification area). Show not all auto-start programs
  themselves by an icon in the status bar.
   
  On each program, you don't want to automatically start, check its
  Options to see if he has the choice of not start (make sure you)
  Indeed choose not to run, not just a "don't show icon.
  Optional). Many can easily and better be arrested like that. If that is not
  work, run MSCONFIG from the start. Run the line, and then click the Startup tab.
  Uncheck the programs that you do not want to automatically start.
   
  However, if I were you, I wouldn't do it just for the application of
  the minimum number of running programs. Despite what many people say
  you, you should be concerned, not with the way * a lot * of these programs
  you run, but * that *. Some of them can degrade performance severely, but
  others have no effect on performance.
   
  Don't stop all programs to run willy-nilly. What you need to do
  is to determine what each program is, what its value is up to you which
  the performance cost is its running all the time. You can try
  Internet search and ask questions about the details here.
   
  Once you have this information, you can make a smart informed
  decision on what you want to keep and what you want to get rid of.

If you need antivirus protection Thomas Reed recommends to use ClamXAV. (Thanks to Thomas Reed to this recommendation.) You might consider adding this Safari extensions: Adblock Plus 1.8.9.

  Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click the Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If it stops your problem, then re-enable one by one until the problem returns. Now remove this extension as it is the origin of the problem.

  The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.

  Difficulty of pop-ups in browser that support Safari.

  Common pop - ups include a message saying that the Government has taken over your computer and you pay release (often called "Moneypak"), or a false message saying that your computer has been infected and you need to call a number of tech support (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it to be resolved. First of all, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and that your computer has not been assigned. This "hack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so don't pay not money, call number, or provide personal information. This article will give an overview of the solution to remove the pop-up window.

  Quit Safari

  Usually, these pop-ups will not go by clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel '. In addition, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in grey, including the option to leave Safari. You'll probably force quit Safari. To do this, press command + option + ESC, select Safari, press on force quit.

  Relaunch Safari

  If you restart Safari, the page will reopen. To avoid this, hold the "Shift" key when opening Safari. This will prevent windows since the last time that Safari was running since the reopening.

  It will not work in all cases. The SHIFT key must be maintained at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window is displayed again. In these circumstances, after force quit Safari, turn off Wi - Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then restart Safari normally. He'll try to reload the malicious Web page, but without a connection, it will not be able to. Leave this page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com and try to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet and the page that you entered is displayed rather than the malicious.

• How to remove the units listed in the window of the autorun program

  Does anyone know how to remove the automatic launch of units? Earlier, I installed several of my old mobile phones, which I don't use anymore, but when I open the autorun program, they are listed (some several times) and I can't seem to uninstall. Would be very happy if someone knows how to solve my problem. :)

  Original title: Wireless units in autorun

  Hi Bijei,

  • It is a program to AutoPlay or AutoRun?

  I suggest you open the editor from the registry on your computer and check in below location if the old mobile entries are listed. To open the registry editor follow the steps below:

  a. Click Start.

  b in the start search box type regedit and press to enter.

  (c) in the registry editor, navigate to the following location.

  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\KnownDevices

  or

  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers

  d. Locate the old entries from mobile device to the above address.

  If you are able to find the entrances to the location above, you can click with the right button on the mobile device entries and remove entries. After you delete the key, restart the computer and verify if they appear in the list of AutoRun again. Before you remove the key make sure that you back up the registry keys.

  Registry warning:

  Sometimes, this problem is due to two Windows that have been corrupted registry entries. To resolve this problem, you must use the registry editor to delete the corrupted registry entries.

  However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, proceed as in the KB Article:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/322756/

  Hope this helps and let us know the result.

  Thank you and best regards,

• How to remove the search box in the Windows 7 Start Menu?

  I'm a guy from keyboard. Encoder, mudder. Therefore, I prefer my Start menu for user-friendly keyboard, which includes the removal of the search box as the focus of pigs. I can't find this option in the control panel to the taskbar and Start Menu. I lack, or it is impossible to get the classic Windows, looking for the start menu?

  I forgot on the thing... If you want to remove the search box, try this: start > Control Panel > programs > Turn Windows features or disable > uncheck Windows Search

  ...

  I said that you can press Tab... wrong... you must press SHIFT + Tab.

  ...

  About to express my opinion - there is a simple reason why I do this. Some time ago, someone asked how to remove the search box, and it received no response for a few days. After that, I found this option, how to remove... When I said on this subject after a few days, I heard that this person used to this new feature of Windows and now it will keep it. I'm not saying that your opinion is wrong... this system differ only from XP... so we have to try to learn something new and check after a few days we don't like this solution more than the previous.

  ...

  I wonder why write you in commentary edition which has pasted the link almost not worth it. You will get exactly the same behavior of Menu start as in Windows XP. I thought that you, like this old solution... "Pinning just something that mimics the classic style"... No... you have clicked on the first link... you should read more prudent. There was also another. But even if you have selected the first solution with menu PIN... I guess you don't know that you can run all the pinned programs by pressing the Windows key + number... for example, WinKey + 1, so that each action is made without a mouse.
