The program is listed in "all programs" but do a right click on it does not give the "pin to start menu" option as it does for programs that was shipped with Windows 7. (Please do not suggest that I drag it from the office to the menu start, in the start menu closes as soon as you click on anything, which makes it impossible.).
Too bad. I just tried something and it worked. I did drag the icon on the button start not open and here!, he was pinned to the menu. So, I answer to my own question.

I have an email in my outlook express (BOX SENT) that I can't remove. When I try it freezes the computer. It was an e-mail I was trying to send
and it has been sent. Someone knows how to remove it.
original title: Email in outlook express
Check for working offline and see if it will delete, or else create a new Outbox and sent items folder.
Follow these steps for the Outbox, sent items after you move the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create. Just don't touch the problem message so OE will not freeze.
Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
With OE closed, find the Outbox.dbx and Sent Items.dbx file and remove them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.
To avoid this in the future:
Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

I have music files in my playlists that I can't make it appear in the Windows Media Player library
Original title: Player Windows medis library - Playlist trouble
-J' have music files in my playlists that I can't make it appear in the library - how can I sync the two up - I tried the usual fall / drag...
Hello
1. is the specific issue of the reading list?
2 are you able to add other songs in the Windows Media Player library?
3 did you changes to the computer before the show?
The Player library is the location in the player that lists all of the music, videos and photos on your computer.
When you play a media file on your computer or a removable storage device, the file is automatically included in the Player library, so you can access it directly from the reader. And if you have access to remote media stored on other computers on your network, you can change the player settings to add those files remotely to the Player library when you play them. The reader does not automatically add a file that you play from removable media, such as a CD or DVD.
Since you aren't able to add songs to the library, you can try the following and see if they help.

What can I do to get rid of him, so I can try to reprint?
If the printer is in mobile use, make sure that you correctly turn the printer off when you are finished. The printer must be turned off with the switch and then required time leave the printheads properly Park. If the power is turned off without turning off the printer and allowing him to park the printheads properly then the printhead can dry and clog. (This is likely to be more a problem with the color cartridge).
Also avoid extreme temperatures - inside a closed vehicle in summer temperatures can easily get at 50 ° C or more, and it can also shorten the life of the cartridge.
