I used to be able to double-click any folder to find a particular file manually.

For some reason any now, if I double click to open a the faclility search folder appears and asks which file I want to. How to get back to the old way without having to use the search engine? For example if I click on my photos, pesky search companion appears. I used to be able to simply click to view all folders and then click a folder to display the images. Help!

    Since we have no way to know what you
    already tried or what the program that has been
    you were happy with... this question is difficult to
    fix.

    Question... When you view your photos now
    .. are you using Windows Live Photo Gallery?

    I'm guessing it was Windows Photo
    Gallery?

    Perhaps the two programs are still available...

    I wonder if you could go to... Start Orb / All

  • When I double-click a folder or a drive, I get a "this file has no program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options panel' message.

    I studied a lot of information to solve this problem, but whenever I click on my drives in my computer or folder, it comes up with this error message. No matter what I do, the error remains. The strange thing is,I can click right and always open folders normally with the "Open" option, it's just that Ican't double-click on a folder and access it using Windows Explorer. I think it might be a virus or something, but I'm not a computer expert. Anyone know how I can fix without wiping my computer?

    I tried the things:

    (1) I have SystemSuite Pro 10 (2009), so I used that to try to scan deep and does all the options I could. I found 4 Trojan files in my files of java for a reason, but I deleted them.

    (2) some sites suggest a problem with the registry, so I tried the fixes for those who did not.

    (3) I had a system checkpoint to restore old and just tried to restore my computer to that, but the problem persisted.

    (4) I used guest trying to access Windows Explorer and some of my other files, but the error message comes up again. It seems impossible to access Windows Explorer.

    Please help me. Although it is a small problem, I really like my new computer to stay in the best shape possible and not have to do a right-click on each folder just to open it.

  • Double-click to open a Word or Excel file crashes just for centuries before opening it later.

    Recently, by double clicking on a file name to open a Word or Excel file, my PC crashes just for centuries before opening it later. Text files, PDF, jpg files and other open immediately, no problem. I have not changed the Word/Excel software recently and the extensions.doc/.xls file are correctly associated with programs.

    Open Word/Excel and then use the file - dialog box open to open a file.

    When I use the firefox browser, I can't just click on a link to open it, I have to open it in a new tab or window. A link will not open simply by clicking on it. Why?

    Hi niknah2, please try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click on the menu button , click Help , and then select restart with disabled modules.

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  • To open click on folder or application and bad file request

    When I try to open a specific folder or an application a different folder or application opens, sometimes nothing is open to all and I have to right click and select open?  All this began to happen after starting my computer laptop louding (about 5-10 beep) beep when you turn it on. I ran all system tools and updates, try to understand. I'm afraid that my laptop may be poised to crash or maybe the registry is messed up?

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!!!

  • Problems with listbox - double click

    Hello community,

    I'm doing a program in which I'm building a dialog box by using the tab control and the user can double-click on one of the folders/files and this file must be read in the program and graphics need to be plotted.

    To do this, I use a Boolean control, if I activate it, I call a tab control with a ListBox in which I use the function of list folder to view all the files/folders in the directory I put. I was able to get the double click event to work and give me the correct path to play the file using the function "read from the spreadsheet. The part of the plot is now over, but I have problems when I try to run the program.

    The program was supposed to read the name of the cell that the user double click and only after that he reads the name I have change for a path access and then read. Which under its weight reads the file ListBox begins selected, as if I run the program once and double click on any file in the next run it will show the last selected file. The problem is that I am creating a node to invoke to reset the list box, but when I do this the program opens a dialog box to select the file to read.

    So what I need is to figure out how to do the program only runs after the user to double-click a cell, should not read the file already selected in previous executions. But I don't know what to do. Can you help me please?

    Thank you for your attention

    The stacked sequence is to make actions happen in that order, that's how I learned. Local variables are also here because I don't know how to use the same variable twice or several times during a VI. Well, I'm still young enough for that.

    Well, you break the data flow by copying in indicators invisible only to re-read a nanosecond later. Indicators are for the user, not to store data. If you eliminate the structure of the sequence, you can wire things together directly. Data flow automatically determines the exact execution order. No required sequence.

    indicators and variable local are NOT the 'variables', they are user interface elements.

    Joined a quick attempt at a code cleanup.

    All your operations of chain cable paths are still quite fragile. You should really exploited to the way datatypes. There are probably a few broken things because I can't test. However, it should give you some ideas.

  • Double clicking problem

    Good then really work none of my icons on my desktop right now. When I double click on it, instead of directing I [the internet or microsoft word] or whatever I click on, a "run as" appears.  The only way to use the programs must do right-click on it and choose "Run as Administrator". Yesterday, my display settings I screwed up (it happens sometimes). Usually, it's an easy fix by going into the properties, click display settings.  However, when I click on display settings, run as box appears.  In the Properties window, however, you can't right click on anything... so I can not change the display settings.  How can I fix the problem of not being able to double-click my icons and get rid of which run as box popping up every time?

    I did... my display settings are back to normal, but my icons are still not working.  I actually made a mistake if she is not a "run as" box that appears, he says: 'Open with' I'm sorry, I don't know if that makes a difference.  Oh and another thing that happened when the icons has stopped working - I had a sidebar with a clock and the time. The sidebar is over now.

    Ok. This new 2 problems...

  • Used to be able to send pictures on Outlook Express 6.0. Now my friends are unable to open the files that I send to them.

    I am running Windows XP and have all the updates.  I use a Dell computer six years but still works well.    I have Outlook Express 6.0, which I think is common to updates.  Until last week, I used to be able to go in the folder 'My images' my documents.  Then I could click on the thumbnail of the photo and choose E-mail this file option.  I can still do all of these things, and in my folder of emails sent, it seems that my email has been sent with the image in two piece attached and incorporated into the enamel.  BUT my friends say the email is empty or the picture is distorted with the bottom half cut off when they try to open it.  I haven't changed anything, why what is happening?

    It would seem that something is corrupting the message when you send it, and when it happens.  Try to send you a copy of the messages you send with pictures and see if you get the message intact.  Compare what you get with what is in your sent items folder.  BTW, images are attached only once.  By default, they will appear at the end of messages if they are attached, but they are not included twice when transmitted.

    If you receive a message truncated as your other recipients, find interference antivirus (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).  You can also try to rule out problems on your computer by clicking file | Store identity in OE and establishment of a new identity, which will give you a new message and the hive of the registry, then you can add your account and test to see if this solves the problem.

  • When I select or double-click on most of the files the search window opens instead. If I right click option 1 is "search". This change happened suddenly. How to get back to normal?

    I tried "folder options" and change the folder options with no luck.  Then set the folder to Preset Options with no luck.  It happened all of a sudden.  My photos, my Docs, my computer, some Office files - I right click and arrow down to open I want to open the file instead of just double click or use the arrow keys to highlight and press ENTER to open.  Whenever the search will open in a new window.
