I have a white window empty, planted in the middle of my desktop screen

Just turned on the computer on 8 Jan... January 11 after having disconnected from the internet, I went back to the computer a couple hours later to find a small window with the message "the Web site you are looking at is trying to close... "(je n'avais pas reconnecté) so I clicked close and a white square appeared my picture of office coming to overlap."  It disappears when I click on 'show desktop' (lower left), as does the gadget (right) bar.  However, it always reappears after the closure of all programs.  It cannot be moved or minimized etc.  and seems immune to my cursor. Otherwise, the computer works normally and quickly. I restarted twice and led the 'windows diagnostic support,"that no problem.  virus protection is enabled. The Task Manager also said that nothing is running.

    HI I have a computer with windows vista business on that key. Apparently, I do not have the original OEM drive but I have a dell windows vista Enterprise drive. the product to activate my acer desktop computer?

    Hello

    A manufacturer of recovery disc is designed for a particular brand and computer model; they are not interchangeable.

    Here is the link to order the Acer recovery disks:

    http://us-store.Acer.com/RCD/

    And if the Acer never included a drive to purchase, you should have a recovery Partition on your hard disk to reinstall Vista to how it was when new.

    With an Acer, you press Alt + F10 at startup to start the process of recovery back to new condition.

    See you soon.

  • How to access Windows 8 PC on the Internet with remote desktop connection?

    Hello

    Can someone tell me how to access Windows 8 PC on the Internet with remote desktop connection?

    I'm good with the software and I have used many Microsoft software since the 1980s. So I like Microsoft products, but since they have outsourced their tech support, you can't support quality even if you pay for it. I followed all the instructions in the Windows 8 will help about DRC setting screens, but I can't connect unless I'm on the same home network. Here are the details:

    I have a desktop PC with Windows 8 Pro and I have authorized the DRC. I tried two settings in system properties:

    1. Allow connections to this computer remotely.
    2. That allow the connection of computers running Office remotely with authentication NLA.

    I also turned on both private and Public Windows Firewall settings > allow an App or feature through Windows Firewall.

    I have installation then DRC to my laptop with Windows 8 (standard edition, not the Pro version). I have a DRC using the full name of the computer and other DRC using the static IP address for my ISP Desktop connection.

    I use the user account administrator Windows for connections of DRC of the laptop.

    I cannot get this to work on the Internet from a location outside my house with another ISP connection. The only way it works if I'm uncomfortable with the laptop using the same network home.

    I called Dell tech support and it is always useless and just a more aggravating waste of an hour to talk to their support of technique outsourced in India (who barely even understand English) and then they hang up the phone as it was supposed to be disconnected. I also called Microsoft support and lost more than an hour to speak to their outsourced tech support in the Philippines (and as support of the India, they hang up or 'disconnect' when they cannot answer your question and they go account learn you more about Windows while they do). U.S. tech companies use AMERICANS more for their technical support so their customers can get people who actually care about doing a good job and can actually understand English?

    So if someone who knows using Windows 8 for DRC on the Internet has some tips, then it would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!!

    P.S. If anyone is offended by my comments about the ugly, incompetent, stupid providing "technical support" in India or the Philippines - Nevermind! You go ahead and waste hours of your time talking to some Morón in these countries, who barely understands English and then 'disconnects' the call when they know that you realize that they are clueless and have all the answers.

    Take a look at no - IP.com or dyndns.com, and then use your host.domain:3389 of no.-ip/dynDNS or run RelaVNc SErver that is running on port 5900 by default.  Server options allow you to change the port as well if necessary.

    Hi DianeCosic,

    What operating system or version of Windows do you use?

    We would need to know that in order to help you better.  If you still see the desktop and My Documents on your Start menu, you should be able to recreate the shortcuts by right-clicking on them from there.

    In addition, if something has changed on your computer, you can do a system restore to a previous point before the show began.

    Please, let us know if we can help you.

    Thank you!

  • Animate CC - insert empty frames in the middle of the timeline

    Hi all

    I am new to animate and it am listed this as I go along.

    I make a film about a minute maximum. The film is just images and texts so straight forward, enough but I can understand how to insert frames empty in the middle of the timeline without screwing up the different positions of key frame.

    I have attached a picture showing what I have to do. It is a scenario to "part of the seas" - I need to leave empty keyframes on the left where are and transmit the images on the right.  Looks like it should be an easy thing to do, but for all my violin I can't understand it.

    All help appreciated.

    Thanks in advance, 1 million

    I'm not 100% clear on what you are doing - but this may help.

    You can insert new frames with F5 and new keyframes with F6 (vacuum keyframnes with (F7). If you click and drag across multiple layers in an image, the command will affect all selected layers.
