How to remove unwanted plugins (and no I don't want to read all the articles unrelated who never answer your question)?

I want to erase the unwanted plugins in Fire Fox. A plugin has even a warning about its use does not (Java Deployment Toolkit). But every time I ask 'how to remove a plugin?', I get redirected to an article that does not answer the question. And then the cycle starts again without ever actually answer the question.

IT IS NECESSARY TO UNINSTALL FIREFOX TO DELETE A PLUGIN?

Hello 4646tm, I understand your frustration. Here's how to remove a plugin:
Click the menu and then click on Add ons, which looks like a piece of a puzzle.

    Type about:plugins into the Location bar and press Enter to display the About Plugins page.
   Each entry in the About Plugins page will have "File:" and "Path:", showing the name and location of the plugin file. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the folder shown for the plugin you want to remove.
   Rename the file to add an X in front of the filename (for instance, npswf32 becomes Xnpswf32).

You said that you do not want links, but I'll give you a couple just in case you do not want to uninstall the plugins manually. These links are to pages that tell you how to run the uninstall it please do not hesitate to tell me if you think that they are not useful.

Uninstall Adobe Flash - Windows

Uninstall QuickTime - Windows Vista/7

Follow the instructions:
Download Microsoft Silverlight (instructions to uninstall also)

I just put a couple of the most common out there, if you have a specific plugin you don't want it please tell me and I can dig to the top of the page for it, also you can do manual uninstall I gave you.

Have a great day!

Jon

  • Once I ran tool to remove unwanted files from Advanced System Care I can't run all the apps windows 8.

    If I select all the apps on the app store, it seems that I click on it, and then nothing happens. If I try to run the store icon appears on the screen and then it goes back to the start screen. Help?

    (1) did you try restarting your PC? Don't forget to restart Windows 8 is not the same as stop and start again.

    (2) if it does not help, see if Advanced SystemCare provides a backup of files recently erased. If so, try to get back them.

    You also use the registry cleaner? Registry cleaners claim to boost the overall performance, but they create more problems than the good they do. I used to use these tools to improve the performance of my PC, but I always ended up having more trouble. Now I occasionally use CCleaner with too much caution when cleaning the registry. Windows 8 provides integrated automatic maintenance that works almost every day when your PC is idle. Additional software is not necessary.

    (3) Finally, if the first two options do not work, try "refreshing" your system. Move at a right angle to display the sidebar. Click on 'Settings' and then 'change PC settings. " Under the group "Général" find 'Refresh your PC without affecting your files' and click on 'Get started '. Note that this will remove your installed programs, but will not affect personal files and modern applications.

  • How to remove unwanted picture and Fax Viewer images?

    There are a lot of unwanted in the Picture and Fax Viewer images, but I can't find a way to remove them.

    I suspect the unwanted images are at your
    The temporary Internet files folder. When you access
    sites on the net that include graphics and images,
    they are loaded into this folder, so you can view them.

    If you want to view the contents of your
    The temporary Internet files folder... try the following steps...

    Reach... Start / Control Panel / Internet Options /.
    General tab / historical section of navigation / settings
    button / see the files button.

    Or... a window IE and go to... Tools / Internet
    Options / General tab / navigation history section.
    Button settings / see the files button...

    You can also go to... Start / run... and type or copy.
    Paste the following command:

    %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

    Then press on... Enter... to launch the Temporary Internet Files folder.

    To clear it up... try deleting temporary Internet files.

    Running Disk Cleanup should take care of it.

    You may also, on an Internet Explorer window...
    Reach... Tools / Internet Options / delete files / OK.

  • How to remove unwanted specific nonfirefox of toolbars - I can't do it via the start menu?

    I deleted programs as much as I can and cookies. I am trying to remove the store home Tools toolbar. I followed the instructions to remove in the menu 'Start' and 'Add or remove programs ". the shop at home program was not there. Please tell me what to do or not do.

    Shop at home

    #1 - ADDED EDIT: I just found the reference to the toolbar ShopAtHome, also named "Toolbar of Shopping smart"; that search in Control Panel > Add / Remove programs and then click on to remove/uninstall. Make sure Firefox is closed prior to the abduction, if it is there

    EDIT #2 - ADDED: I saw where there may be a file named SelectRebatesUninstall.exe on your computer in the location c:\program files\SelectRebates\. If you find, click/double click on the file and let me know the results.

    Have you looked into C:\Program Files for one or more folders named shop at home and/or select refunds and/or the Smart Shopping toolbar? If one (or both) are / are there, close Firefox (Firefox button > exit OR File > Exit), open the folder and look for a file named uninstall.exeand click/double click on this file uninstall.exe . Let me know your results.

  • How to remove unwanted files from the local root folder of the site?

    Hello

    I work with Dreamweaver CS4 on a Windows PC. I have finished my site but I have a lot of files in my local root folder that I don't want to upload to the server. These unwanted files are for most of the photos that I should not be used in my site. I do not understand how to download the site on the server using ftp and remote folder in Dreamweaver. I suppose that if I move the page html files to the remote folder that my photos will not be associated with these html files automatically. I used a Dreamweaver template during the construction of the site. I wish I had a folder with only the necessary files for the site (all html pages and a folder of images) to upload to the server. Is there an easy way to move all my pages and images associated with a folder or remove all unwanted files in the local root folder? As I see it now, I'll have to go through all my pages and write down each title of the photo and then go back and delete each unwanted file. This seems a lot of your time, so I thought that there must be an easier way, I hope.

    Any help or ideas will be of course very appreciated, thanks, dluthier

    I guess you mean 'work' files, not the images that you use in your Web site.

    If they are not related to all pages of your site, you are free to move by using your computer's file management tools. I can give you specific instructions, if you wish, but the short of it is that you do not keep them in the folder root of your site at all.

    In my way of working, I have a folder for each client that includes:

    • The correspondence of this client folder
    • Folder to 'Work'... the PNG images, etc., or of the images from the client
    • Record the site root

    When I get e-mail, I save the message in the appropriate folder of correspondence, I save the images etc in the folder of 'Work' to the customer and I only save images and other who have already been optimized in the Site folder, keep it as intact as possible.

    Even if the general warning must always use the files Panel to move files around, that applies to files which are linked and form part of the structure of your Site. Moving your files 'work' outside of the structure can be carried out safely in windows explore your PC.

    That said, if you need to download and there are files you want to download, or to move, you can 'hide' the in the files Panel by right-clicking on the file name and choosing 'Cloaking '.... "in the context menu that appears.

    To the point that the image files that are downloaded to the remote site will not 'automatically' be associated with your html files. That is right. Unless you have configured explicitly links or associations between files, images will not associate themselves!

    On the subject of 'automatic' way to do this, you can make a link to check on all of your local site. Window > results > Link Checker will bring up the appropriate window, which will give you the choice: broken links, external links and orphan files (this is the one you want). Use the green triangle tower at the left end of the Link Checker to set your auditor... Current Local Document or a set current site.

    If you want to make a checklist to ensure that you move them all, you can save the report by clicking on the small icon "Floppy" under the Green turn the triangle. Who will be on a file text and make up a dialog that you save the report, which will show the broken links, external links and orphaned files. After you move the files to your heart's content, rerun the link check and confirm that you moved the files you want to move. Make sure that you DON'T move files consciously... do not move the .htaccess files or .cgi files, etc.

    Who will save you from actually having to 'write' file names!

    Here's how to make a Bootable Vista Startup Repair disk:

    If you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    Hi Experts,

    Can someone please explain, how to remove unwanted characters from flat files before moving on to the target? Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards

    REDA

    On oracle staged you can use REGEX_REPLACE to get rid of special characters, for example

    REGEXP_REPLACE (, "[^ [: alnum:]" "]', NULL")

    or

    REGEXP_REPLACE (, "[[: cntrl:]] ','") to get rid of nonprinting characters

    In ODI 11.x you would put this in the field of the expression of the target model in your interface

    The ODI 12, you would use a component of the expression in your mapping
