Method 2: check in safe mode, if the issue not to persist in safe mode, and then put the computer to boot.

Step 1: start the computer in safe mode

Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not work in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed.

Start your computer in SafeMode (Windows 7)

Step 2: put the computer to boot and see if it helps.

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.

Note: follow step 7 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.

  • Freezes on Web sites in flash like Youtube. The Watch Windows Task Manager process FlashPlayerPlugin opens and crashes again and again. Up to date - how can I solve this problem?

    Firefox crashes whenever I open a site in flash like Youtube. If I open to the process task manager, then I see that flashplayerplugin will try and start over and over again and seems to hang over and over again. My Firefox and flash player are up to date. I tried to uninstall and reinstall firefox and flash player. I tried to turn off all the other modules. I even tried to install older versions of flash player, and nothing has worked. My wife uses Firefox to work, so is it possible to fix it?

    You can check for problems with the latest version of the Flash plugin and try these:

    • disable an eventual extension of the browser for Firefox Plugin RealPlayer Record and if installed RealPlayer update
    • Disable protected mode in the plugin Flash (Flash 11.3 + on Windows Vista and later versions)
    • turn off hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

    Alternatively, you can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Firefox icons in the taskbar Windows 7

    I have a FF icon in the Windows 7 taskbar. When I click on it, a second icon appears when the homepage is open. Following clicks on the first icon opens the tabs that appear in the second icon. Also if I open a new tab (using the '+' or via a bookmark). The first icon does not show the preview of open tabs - second icon again.
    It didn't happen in FF9

  • Icons in the taskbar Windows 7 (notifications) does not not at the start. [SOLVED]

    Question: It started a few days ago, I'm not sure what has changed (no updates to anything und do not clean my comp so far here). When starting, but not load my system tray icons/notice. There is a select statement 3 charge that are supposed to, but there should be more (like volume, wifi, (I have disabled power), etc.) There is 1 which is not supposed to because it is hidden completely.

    3 loading (assumed):

    ~ Intelligent ram (advanced care system)

    ~OpenOffice.org Quickstarter

    ~ Avast icon

    1 who is responsible (not not supposed to):

    ~ Synaptics Pointing Device (touchpad for laptop, I have the touchpad disabled permanently, so I completely hidden icon (no notifications).

    Icons that are supposed to load:

    Shown (visible in the status bar)

    ~ Intelligent ram (advanced care system)

    ~ Connection/Wifi signal strength

    ~ Volume

    Hidden, but display notifications (accessed via popup "Show hidden icons" arrow)

    ~OpenOffice.org Quickstarter

    ~ Avast icon

    ~ Action Center (flag)

    (I think there's one more, but I don't remember.) It could have been 'Power', which I think, but it is completely hidden, as in the system icon is disabled)

    What is already:

    ~Notifications/what watch is already very well tuned for my taste. I just got set to "Show icon and notifications", stuff the value "notifications only." (Ergo, it resides in my region 'Show hidden icons' through arrow, but is not visible otherwise.) Und stuff put not show at all.)

    ~ Windows is up to date.

    ~ Drivers are all up to date.

    ~ System is cleaned (Spyware, Malware, Antivirus, General Computer Care) a few times a week, has been cleaned out of turn, in order to help solve.

    ~ Regardless of the icon is not displayed, programs, still work properly.

    What has been tried:

    ~ To reboot first, simple. Nothing.

    ~ Searched online, find the regedit, removed IconStreams und PastIconStream in the registry, kill explorer.exe, run explorer.exe. Voila, my icons were back. Except for some I had to modify the settings on back to what I wanted. That was supposed to be the end of it. ... It wasn't. Model began the next day, icons were not loading right. The same 3 icons has charge. Tried the regedit with a reboot... Nothing helps.

    ~ I tried Regedit und journal/off voltage. Zip, they go back to does not properly.

    So, I wonder why the regedit isn't sticking. Personally, I don't find yet, everything which would be somehow in conflict with this, especially since the wifi turns on automatically does not show in the taskbar, or volume. Everything seems to work fine, so I don't understand why some of them are not loading. The only way I know to make the back is with regedit. But in doing so each time I start my computer is pretty boring.

    Search for a solution: What can I do to remedy this? Everything I looked at gives me "update drivers, windows update, virus/malware research, make regedit (mentioned above), log off / on, restart" that have been tried.

    Thanks in advance.

    UPDATE *.

    Alrighty, I tried to start in safe mode, a boot minimum then tried und tool File Checker system, nothing that was of any help either.

    So, as a last ditch effort... I did a startup und repair selected a Restore Point.

    Solution: My icons in system tray restored to a previous state until I started having problems, are evidence of as it should.

    UPDATE *.

    Obviously, I have solved my problem, but I have to mark an answer for them to consider that it solved und I can not put my own answer to select. So I chose the one who has not fixed it, but would probably be someone elses.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    This could be due to several reasons, including missing or corrupted file system. I really appreciate the efforts made to try to resolve the problem.  We will try these steps and check to see if they help.

    Method 1: Method 1: Start the computer Safe Mode and check if the problem persists. If the problem does not persist in safemode, turn on your computer in a clean boot state and check.

    Step 1: Start the computer in Safe Mode

    Safe mode is an option of troubleshooting for Windows that starts your computer in a limited State. Only basic files and drivers needed to run Windows are started. The words Safe Mode appear in the corners of your monitor to identify which Windows mode you are using.

    Please refer to: start your computer in safe mode

    Step 2: Perform a clean boot in order to avoid any conflict of third party software.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 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.

    Place your system in the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.

    Method 2: Run the System File Checker tool

    System File Checker is a Windows utility that allows users to find corruptions in Windows system files and restore the damaged files.

    To do this, click Start, type command or cmd prompt in the Search box, right click invite, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

    At the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

    Note: Do not close the command prompt window until the audit is completed 100%. The results of the analysis will be posted when this process is complete.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  • 10.0 Firefox now creates a new icon on the taskbar of Windows 7 whn launched. Why?

    With earlier versions of Firefox on Windows 7, I got 1 icon on the task bar and I would stay at this icon to go to the program. Now, at the launch of Firefox, that it creates an icon on the taskbar and it is confusing, because I'm used to return to the original icon, except that now it opens a new session of Firefox that I don't want. How to return to 1 icon?

    After clicking on the favorite taskbar icon and firefox opens a "new Session".
    DETACH the old icon and the PIN, then the "New Session" icon.

    Then from this point on 1 single icon will appear in the taskbar.

    Phongng714,

    The error that you normally get is due to a lack of Message special access permission rights. You can learn more about this here. You will notice in the section Additional Considerations that he mentions this authorization. You can manage permissions on a per connection basis in Remote Desktop Session Host Configuration. The permissions are listed on the Security tab in the connection Properties dialog box.

    Could check you the permission level and see if that solves it.

  • Two of the application window are enabled at the same time when I click on an icon in the taskbar of an application.

    When I open a window of the application in Windows 7, and then press the keyboard windows, if I click on an icon in the taskbar to another window, I find that each of the two windows is activated. I use Spy ++ to monitor both windows messages in this scenario and esteem that both windows obtained the WM_ACTIVATE message. If I right click on an icon in the task bar of the window of the second just after press the windows key, I find that the first window will activate everything first and soon to be switched off.  What is a feature of the taskbar of Windows 7 or a bug in Windows 7?
