I want that my "recent places" icon/link back

The icon/link "Recent Places" in the Windows Explorer Navigation pane has disappeared.

I tried both 'back to the default' operations. Nothing.

I found the actual file in C:\, removed half a dozen of the corrupted files (those more than 1 mg in size). Tried by dragging the icon of "Recent places" on the Nav Pane - nada. Nothing puts the icon/link back where it belongs, under libraries.

How can I get that back?

Right-click on the recent folder,

Click send to and click Desktop create shortcut.

The last time :)

Click the Start button and click on your username at the top.

Open the links folder,

Drag the shortcut created in the folder links open.

Once it is in the links folder,

Right click and click Rename,

Click inside the box to rename and save the list of shortcuts.

If you want to drag the shortcut that is created inside the new library, you can try to.

  • Recent Places icon appearing on the desktop when ever I go to recent locations in the Favorites

    When ever I go to recent locations in the Favorites page to clean my memory this recent locations icon appears on the desktop WITHOUT option to right click and delete OR drag it to the trash

    I found a tutorial on the web that provides a way to remove the icon
    1.right - click recent locations in the field of Favorites tab in Explorer.
    2. click on "send to", and then select Desktop
    This will automatically replace the existing icon and replace it with a DESKTOP SHORTCUT
    3. simply delete the shortcut
     
    But this issue should be fixed in next update, or maybe it is set in point 8.1 of Windows because it's REALLY BORING to this procedure whenever you clear recent locations

    Thank you very much! To solve my problem... As you have said, I hope there will be an update so that we do not have to constantly...

    Much appreciated, Cheers

    Hello

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forums.

    I see you've found an error "file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action" when you click office and recent places.

    1. Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
    2. What is the full error message?

    I suggest you to report to us the screenshot of the Advanced window so that we can understand what exactly the situation.

    See:

    The average while you can try the following steps and check if the error reappears.

    Method 1:

    Step 1:

    Start the computer in safe mode and check the number.

    Some options, including the mode safe mode, start Windows in a limited State, where only the essential is started. If a problem doesn't reappear when you start in safe mode, you can eliminate the default settings and basic device drivers and services as a possible cause.

    Follow this link provided below to start your computer in safe mode.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

    Step 2:

    Put the computer to boot and check if the problem persists.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 3 of the KB article provided above.

    Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

    It will be useful.

    In the hyperlinks tool simply add javascript:history.back()

  • Can't put my links where I want that they

    Hello

    I'm trying to align my links in the #header using the fill command. The problem is when I try to align the Pentecost padding-top and padding-bottom links, nothing happens.

    I thought that maby the command counted filling px high from my Web page, rather than the top of my #header and I tried to increase the px accordingly, but that did not help either. Also it could maby be better/other how to put my links where I want that they without the use of paddig?

    Hello

    One way to achieve the look that you are after is move the top, bottom and left padding in the rule of the header so that only the font size and the right padding remain within the rule of hyperlink.

    #header {}
    background - image: URL(images/Header.jpg);
    position: absolute;
    top: 142px;
    left: 0px;
    Width: 1024px;
    height: 158px;
    padding-top: 38px;
    padding-bottom: 38px;
    padding-left: 42px;
    }

    #page #header a {}
    font size: 28px;
    padding-right: 26px;
    }

    by adding #page #header in front of one will ensure that all of the other links add you in the body of your page not the same style.

    Kind regards

  • Illustrator CS3: place a linked file.

    Hello illustrators.

    I'm working on a version of CS3 for Mac. If I place a file, such as PSD or JPG by choosing FILE > PLACE forms the menu, the file is immediately integrated. I am very sure that until recently it was not like that, you could place a file but it would remain linked. A file has been incorporated only after choosing 'embed' of the links palette.


    I have no idea why this behavior has changed, but I want the files linked, not embedded.

    How can I change this?

    Thank you

    File > place, select the image, click the link area at bottom left of the window of the Place, and then click the move button.
