  Hello

  1. which user account you are using for Parental control (Please note that you cannot apply parental controls on a user admin account? It can be applied to standard user only accounts)?

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/set-up-parental-controls

  After completing the above links persist issue please fallow the mentioned below of the methods.

  Method 1: Disable UAC (User Account Control) and check the result
  See http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/how-do-I-change-the-behavior-of-user-account-control-by-using-the-slider

  Note: You must restart your computer when you enable or disable UAC. Change levels of notification does not require that you restart your computer.

  Important: Enable UAC after you complete the steps.

  Method 2: If the problem persists, try to set the parental control in safe mode and check the result. If you are able to apply settings in safe mode, this means that some program is causing this problem, mainly the security software.

• I downloaded a new version of WinZip. This misuse of my Firefox home page. I keep trying to recover the old settings, but there all including Bing like homepage. What should I do?

  I tried dragging and deleting MyYahoo in the homepage and it resets to Bing, whenever I have reconnect.

  Hi Mnor,

  You should take a look at the Knowledge Base How to set the home pagearticle. Your home page might have been changed by a particular site. Sites like MSN, Yahoo, etc. (and it appears winzip) have been know to ask to become your homepage.

  There are the steps in this article to reset your preferences on the default home page. I would try everything first to clear all strangeness. If it works, you can try to set your homepage again to your personal preferences.

  If this does not work, you should look at article unsaved Preferences.

  Finally, your problem may be because you have been hit by some malware.

  Hope this helps!

• I'm trying to get my old computer but have forgotten the password to log on windows xp. I tried to reinstall and the rider of password thing and nothing works. Any ideas?

  Help, please! Thank you!

  The 'password jumper thing' (?) would be used to clear a BIOS password, not a Windows password. Are you talking about? If a password of BIOS (necessary when you turn on the computer), please give the model/brand/model of your computer (example: laptop Dell Inspiron 1525).

  If a Windows password:

  If you have forgotten your password, if you have another user who has administrative privileges account you can log in to that account and change the password of your account of origin of the user accounts applet in Control Panel. If you do not have another account like this set upwards or that you do not have the password which you will need to log on to the built-in Administrator account. In XP Home, start the computer in Mode safe. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. This will put you in the right menu. Navigate using your arrow up; the mouse does not work here. Once in safe mode, you will see the normally hidden administrator account. The default password is white.

  In XP Pro, you don't need to go to Safe Mode. In the home screen, do Ctrl-Alt-Del twice to get the classic Windows logon box. Type in "Administrator" and the password that you assigned when you set up Windows.

  If you have XP Pro or Media Center and have been using the account administrator for your regular work so it is the only user account on the system, there are ways to change the password for this account to a white. Microsoft does not allow us to tell how, in these forums. Their House, their rules. Use Google or ask a technician to the local computer (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place).

• How to transfer data from an old laptop (broken screen) to a new laptop

  How to retrieve data from an old laptop, to transfer to the new laptop. the problem is that the screen is broken on the old portable th.

  From Internet Explorer

  Original title: data transfer

  The easiest way would be to put his HARD drive in a box that connects to the computer by USB.

  This is just an example - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hard-Drive-Caddy-Case-Enclosure/dp/B003MVW2SM

  You probably have a 2.5 HDD "because I know that all laptops do.  If you need to buy an enclosure for a 2.5 drive "[not a disk 3.5" that could come from a desktop computer].

  Almost all cases derive the power to drive the HARD drive to the USB itself [rather than an external power].  If you see one that needs an external power supply, then you are probably looking to the wrong thing.

  You need to know if the HARD drive is IDE or SATA.  It depends on the age of the computer.  Your computer's manual should tell you or you can whip the HARD drive just to have a look.

  • Here is an illustration of an IDE - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Generic-Toshiba-Fujitsu-Samsung-Hitachi/dp/B0042WZZD4/ref=pd_sim_147_4?ie=UTF8&dpID=21bYEH0CONL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=125C3XKTAFS54XACCCZ8 - connection if you look at the diagrams that you will see that there are long rows of pine trees coming from the HARD disk - what is FDI.
  • Here are illustrations of a connection SATA - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Screw-drive-Enclosure-laptop-Laptop/dp/B003RIL0EM/ref=pd_sim_147_2?ie=UTF8&dpID=419CrJiBX9L&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=125C3XKTAFS54XACCCZ8 and http://www.amazon.co.uk/drive-Enclosure-laptop-Caddy-Laptop/dp/B00926NM8K/ref=pd_sim_147_9?ie=UTF8&dpID=31sO4aOkykL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=125C3XKTAFS54XACCCZ8 - the diagrams show the link inside that connects the HARD drive on [if it's a reflection of what sticks out from HARD drive]-you can see that the connection is a long slot in two sections to the HDD has a long protruding into two sections - which is SATA.

• I have all my old files on an external and trying to restore my favorites from my old computer

  I had wine spilled on my old computer and it no longer works, but I was able to transfer all my files and information on an external hard drive after.

  Your data including passwords, bookmarks, etc., are contained in your profile folder. You can recover the files from that. See profiles of boards - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other data from the user and use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox

• How can I recover my old data settings document files firefox bookmarks and favorites of ie8.

  I need to reinstall windows xp sp2 I turned off my pc by updating the os now I ask a question after the reinstallation of the sp2 would be it possible to recover my old data settings firefox favorites bookmarks of ie8 and norton antivirus 360 documents.

  You might see if this folder is located on your computer.  Depending on how you installed Windows, it could be an old version of some files in pre-installation.

  C:\Windows.Old\

  But beyond that, there's no other place I could think that perhaps it would be after a reinstallation.

  Shameless plug for the new version:
  If you used Windows 8, all of your documents, files, Favorites, bookmarks are saved on your Microsoft Account so that you can use them even if you get a new computer (or reinstall an old one).

  Hello

  If it is a recent problem, I advise to use system restore to return to a date and an hour before, when you made the changes. See the following article for the step by step procedure.

  FAQ system restore

  If this does not resolve the problem, you can use the system restore option Cancel to return to the current state.
