I'm lost. I can't get my computer to download anything

He opens the dialog box for select open, save or cancel. I hit open and nothing happens. It's like I've ever selected in the first place. I searched my program files for adobe flash and reader and no show. I go to the uninstall/change page and they are there. Help... I am running windows 7 Internet explorer,

Instead of opening of its current location, try to save in a known location on your hard drive as a file downloads that you can select in the Navigation pane or folder Documents or even the office.

Where are saved the downloaded files?

When you download files, Windows usually saves in the downloads folder, which is located under your user name in the users folder on the drive where Windows is installed (for example C:\users\your name\downloads). When you save the file, you can choose to save it in a different folder. By default, some file types are saved in different folders. For example, if you right-click on an image on a Web page and then choose Save picture as on the menu, the image will be saved in the default photos folder. If you don't know where the file has been saved, you can search for it in the start menu.

Why can't I open some files such as PDF documents in Internet Explorer?

Internet Explorer uses Add-ons such as the Adobe Reader software to view some files in Explorer. You may have a previous version of the add-on that should be updated to work with a newer version of Internet Explorer. Visit the Web site for the viewer who does not have to download an update.

  • How can I get my computer my external USB drive (portfolio) after that I repeatedly get the message that the device "can not be removed?

    Original title: I need a market to resolve the problem remove the instrument.

    How can I get my computer my external USB drive (portfolio) after that I repeatedly get the message that the device "can not be removed? I have closed all other programs and waited for varying amounts of time, and tried all of the fixes that have been proposed on this site. Nothing works. I don't want to turn off the computer whenever I have to remove the device.

    I can't know what "all patches" you've tried, but:

    Make sure that the system restore does not monitor the external drive.  SR does need to control the system drive and to the system drive, SR has only about 1 GB of space max.  Make a right click my computer and select properties then the System Restore tab to configure SR.

    Make sure that the Indexing Service is turned off (at least for the external drive).  To disable disk indexing completely, which will also speed up your computer a bit, see http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp.  For the external drive, right-click on the drive icon in my computer, select properties and uncheck the indexing disc

    There are different workarounds short to shut down the computer, but you might want to try this third-party app first:
    http://safelyremove.com/index.html  Among other features:

    The device cannot be stopped now. Why? Never encountered the situation when Windows does not allow you to remove a device? Unlike Windows, USB remove will show you programs which prevent the device to be stopped and let you close these programs or just files that they opened on the device.

  • now, I can't get my computer up I think there virus...

    now, I can't get my computer up, according to me, I have a virus... I have a notebook... it tells me to reinstall a copy of the file, l.dll... root\system32\ha windows i can't open my computer this is what keeps poping have cd can b used... once more laptop... it is only a 11 inches and no access to the CD... so know u help me.. pls

    What kind of laptop is (make and model).

    If it supports booting from a USB key, you can make a bootable flash drive that starts the recovery XP (no XP media required) Console.

    Surely someone can help you with that (how about it system engineers)?

    There is probably nothing wrong with your hal.dll file - XP only can not find.

    Unfortunately, even the 'new' Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system when a new question is asked, so we don't know anything about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Maybe someday the dialog box 'ask a question' forums XP will ask these questions automatically when a new thread is started so I don't have to ask every time.  It might even be possible to solve a problem in a single response when enough information is provided.

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    P. S.

    You are unlikely to simply replace the hal.dll by copying a file hal.dll from another system, and here's why:

    When XP is installed, it selects and develops the hal.dll appropriate among seven possibilities of compressed on the CD of installation files:

    HAL. DL_
    HALAACPI. DL_
    HALACPI. DL_
    HALAPIC. DL_
    HALMACPI. DL_
    HALMPS. DL_
    HALSP. DL_
     
    Everyone who can be developed in a hal.dll file, so if it is your intention to replace your hal.dll, you should have to understand or know in advance which is the right one for your hardware, motherboard and processor.  If you just picked one at random, you would have a chance of one in seven (14%) to get the right pair.  You will get maybe lucky.

    Most people would simply choose the file hal.dl_ to expand, but it's the simplest, most boring, generic, and less likely to be correct of all the choices.  It might "work" but it will work hard on something very old material of the system or a virtual machine.

    The file hal.dl_ on the CD is the most boring of all:

    HAL. DL_

    * Standard PC

    It's a good choice for some virtual machines (such as VMWare), but a very poor choice for most systems.

    If I wanted to replace the file hal.dll in the same system here, I would need to expand this file:

    HALMACPI. DL_

    * Standard PC
    * Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC
    * Multiprocessor ACPI
    * MPS multiprocessor

    If I wanted to replace the file hal.dll on an older system here, I would need to expand this file:

    HALAACPI. DL_

    * Standard PC
    * Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC
    * ACPI Uniprocessor
    * Multiprocessor ACPI

    If you thought you needed to replace your hal.dll because your system was complaining that the hal.dll file is missing or damaged, the message is misleading, and the real problem is usually the boot.ini file and has nothing to do with the hal.dll file.

    It is also why when people trying to help you give instructions to put in your XP CD and unzip the hal.dl_ file to replace yours, it's usually bad well-meaning advice from a novice.  It is less likely to be the right choice.

    You may be able to copy one from a system with a very similar hardware and the things you can do, but chances are that you will not solve the no boot scenario.  I've never seen a corrupted hal.dll.  Seen the message, not the problem...

    That kind of help is generally going to be very bad - although it sort of logic in a first time and is 'logic', but it will never work favorably and it is usually not the problem anyway.

    I fixed the problem "missing or corrupt hal.dll" several times, but I've never needed to replace a hal.dll file doing - which is never really the problem.

    Hello

    You will remember to do recent changes on the computer before this problem?

    I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below:

    Method 1:

    You can check the keyboard drivers and to ensure that the latest drivers are installed on the laptop. Follow the steps in the link:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly

    Method 2:

    Download and install the latest updates on the Web site of the manufacturer for the same thing and check if that helps.

    Method 3:

    If the previous step fails, run the system restore to a time where everything worked well. Follow the steps in the link:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions

    If the problem persists, you can also contact a hardware support for help on the issue.
