Unexpected icon on the desktop called Null0 and have no internet connectivity
my fathers partners last week computer has been infected by adware, which was easy enough to remove safely. But last night he told me his return (he thinks ebay.co.uk is at fault?). In any case, when I had a quick glance, there is an icon on the desktop, titled null0. # .rar, which he had never seen before. Brilliant orange white white outline of the letter X. The computer does not connect to the internet, unable to open the system restore and the pop ups are quite common. Anyone can shed light on what I can do? Also, there is little to no information around on the net to give me an overview of what this thing is and what is going on this machine.

Icons on the desktop are covered by some kind of a generic icon after installing updates
Original title: updated ruined my office!
Once the updates have been downloaded and installed to my computer Gateway DX4840-03F (Windows 7 Home Premium x 64) icons on my desktop are now covered by some sort of a generic icon applied on top of the icon who was there. If I take the icons up to large size I can still see the edges of the original under the generic icon icon. I'm hesitant to do a restore before the undates were applied. I guess that when the updates have been applied, I would have the same problem. This is the first time that I've never used this forum thing, but it seems that this isn't the hottest place of answers...
Hi skipplummer,
You can check in the history of Windows update and the updates recently installed.
Step 1:
Check the update history to see what updates have been installed. See the link for the same mentioned below.
See the Windows updates are installed
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/see-which-Windows-updates-are-installed
Step 2:
Given that the problem occurred after installing Windows updates, you can try a system restore and then try to install the updates one manually and check.
You can try a system restore to a point before installing updates.
Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.
To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:
System restore
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-is-system-restore
System Restore: frequently asked questions
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions
After restoring the system, try to download and install updates one manually from the Microsoft Download Center:

I just noticed that all the documents I have stored on my hard drive got converted to format WordPad somehow. I have no idea why. When I open Word and then open the file in Word and click to save it in word, it always records in WordPad format. I have no idea why this started happening. When I create a new file with Word and save it, it also converts somehow in WordPad format. I'm totally stumped. How can I fix?
HelloRight-click on the .docx file, select Properties,general in G tab, click Edit , select the Microsoft word application, if don't figure does not, please browse the path where you have installed on the local system & select the EXE file.applyThen check!Hope it will be you.Kind regardsChauvet J. -

Picture of the desktop too close and not clear.
I tried to change my desktop picture, but when I chose the option full screen, the image was obviously unclear and too big because it shows the places throughout the image. Don't know what we call these squares. Away from the computer, the image is perfect.
These squares are called "pixels". The old CRT monitors would have a size of about 1024 pixels around pixel in 768 vertically. Recent rectangular LED monitors can be usually 1920 pixels by 1080 pixels vertically. If you take an original photo, which is small (pixel-wise) as 50 x 50 pixels, and then you try to enlarge to fit a full screen, no resolution will cause the individual pixels show that the major places which is what you are complaining. The solution is to find a photograph to display that has a higher resolution pixel... ideally something approaching the resolution of your screen.

All icons on the desktop have turned to photo viewer and cannot open these programs
I recently had my computer up to date. Everything was fine until I put my memory stick in the laptop and tried to download my back upwards. Now, when I turn the laptop on the icons does not load and are all stuck in photo viewer and I cannot open programs at all. Can anyone help please, thank you
Original title: icons on the desktop
I'm not 100% sure but I think that you are having a bad "file extension association. This is where the default program to open a file is incorrect. In the case of your office, these are all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) and the. LNK Association was by mistake coupled with Photo Viewer.
I've seen this happen when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After you have selected the photo viewer (or another program) via the Select a program from a list of programs installedand check always use the selected program to open this type of file (circled in red below), the document or program referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in the Photo Viewer as it should.
The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the Explorer will want to be opened by the photo viewer and often use the icon Photo Viewer to display the shortcut no matter what shortcut was originally intentioned to open. This is known as a file association and the default icon. The same condition can occur if you have performed these actions 'Open with' on one. JPG or even a. EXE, but the. LNK explanation is much more likely for the items on the desktop.
The good news is that a small free utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is also a registry hack to achieve, but I recommend the utility unASSOC for its ease of use.
You can get a copy of my OneDrive here. I used to send people elsewhere to download a copy, but this page is more in addition to confusion with misleading ads to download this and this computer of powders of snake oil "fixed".
Just download, then use the utility to unassociate the. LNK files for the user or globally delete the file type and let windows rebuild a new default.

loss of icon - missing Skype icon on the desktop
original title: lost icon
I have windows 7 64 bit system. Today, I noticed that my Skype icon disappeared from my office (it was not in the toolbar never). If I go to all programs Skype appears and I can click on it to open it and it works fine. Then I did a right click on the Skype program and send (create a shortccut). a shortcut was placed on my desk but it a generic bit - square box icon not the original Skype icon which is a large S in a blue box. Someone at - it no indication as to why it has gone--none of my other icons on the desktop are gone. And I checked the trash to see if it had been deleted inadvertently. In addition, any suggestions on how to get the icon with logo skpe back on the desktop? Thank you.

Because it is only today, do a system restore. Pick, say, your restore point 2 days ago.
