• PHANTON Drive; When I try to open the my computer Explorer window is white and I get a message that I need to format the drive F.

  Hello

  I have a laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.  The HARD drive is configured to have a small partition for reserved system, Partition C for the system and the Partiton E for my files.  D drive is the DVD ROM Drive.

  Very occasionally when I try to open the my computer Explorer window is white and I get a message that I need to format the drive F.  I did not have a permanent Drive F and when this happened had no other connected devices.

  Drive F is often used, as are other drive letters, by various devices from time to time, such as external hard drives, Flash, my TomTom SatNav players, camera, readers of cards etc.

  Can someone explain why this happens and if I can do something to stop what is happening in the future?

• Whenever I try to change the settings for startup from the Control Panel, a pop up tells me that I need to activate Windows Defender and open

  I installed Microsoft Security Essentials today and I'm trying to edit startup programs. Whenever I try to change the settings for startup from the Control Panel, a pop up tells me that I need to activate Windows Defender and open.  However, most of the security will not allow Windows Defender be turned on and I want to change the startup parameters.  How can I accomplish this?

  Hello

  If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

  There is nothing to worry.

  Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

  If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:

  http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

  And now edit startup in Vista without using Defender programs, use one of the following methods:

  "How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"

  Or the program Autoruns for FREE:

  Hello. I installed the trial versions of 2014 CC Photoshop and Lightroom 5.6 (ie the plan of photography) on a desktop computer that I've added a new drive in Windows 7. Everything works fine BUT it's an old computer and I think he could pack up unexpectedly. These things are happening. I want to sign up for the plan of photography but I also a Windows Vista laptop, and it's old too so I can put apps on a new office and a new laptop computer, after you have already installed on my desktop. That is why three activations. Am I allowed to do? See you soon. Paul

  You can't have three activations. It is simply not possible technically. If and when the time comes, just disable you / disconnect is on one of the old systems and install it on the new. If the system goes belly up, you contact support to reset your account. No need to make it more complicated than that and resist it.

• I want to run Chkdsk C:/r, I get a message that I need to run in HIGH mode. How high mode? I am the PC if the owner should be able to do anything! I have Windows Vista Home Premium edition. Thank you

  I think that the above covers it.

  Start > Search box > type: cmd

  When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator". Provide the password/OK for the UAC area and opens a command prompt. Now, you can enter your orders.

  Even if you run as administrator (not recommended), you should always altitude for some things that affect the system globally.

  User - recommended configuration (Vista and Win7) accounts

  You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all other Windows 7, Vista, and modern operating systems are operating systems multi-user with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

  In particular, you do not want account only one user with administrator privileges on Vista and Windows 7 because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it may require more work you want to do. Better not to get into a bad situation at first.

  The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

  If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

• How to change the settings for the taskbar in Windows 7.

  Anyone know if its possible to change the settings for the taskbar for the other windows or games can cover or be on top of the taskbar. I have my taskbar set to the top of the screen and when I start Flight Simulator Microsoft in full-screen or 1920 x 1080, he fills the entire screen except the upper part which is the bar of tasks, and because of this the windows sim who loses more space and shows its own menu with windows that... yet once loses more than space. The vertical extent of real world it takes away 1 inch of space on the screen that I find pretty ridiculous. These two programs are both manufactured by Microsoft, in my opinion, that they must work with each other, so I hope that im missing something in 2015?

  Enter 2 (starting from 0)-> click on apply and ok

  This program does a lot of things, but this will allow your taskbar to stay in place and allow it to be covered by windows.
