IE 8 is the browser used by control panel to connect to ms update firefox can be used instead?

I like to use firefox and ie instantly resumes when I use the control panel to check the updates.is browser descends from this task.

MS use ActiveX controls on the update site, so you can access this site via IE and not with Firefox or other browsers.

  • DEP continues to kill the heart of Nvidia Control Panel

    The indication audio connection/disconnection of equipment is back and is not related to physical connections on the PC.  Noise interferes with other audio activity.  The D2IKTYPEhog is back at work. DEP continues to kill the heart of Nvidia Control Panel.  I feel that these three elements are somehow related as they seem to join the line of March.  First started to connect/disconnect and apparently ended when I tightened connections, then the DcomLaunch starts and went after the removal of some malicious programs, then DEP began acting in place soon to be joined by DcomLaunch and now connect/disconnect.
    Is there a connection here? Any ideas out there?

  • Windows 7 backup works, but does not appear in the backup and restore control panel

    I have Windows 7 Pro and have had a running backup on a network drive for a couple of years now.  So far it has worked well.

    Recently, my wife asked me to postpone this off-peak hours and I went directly to the Task Scheduler and update annex it.  I also had to modify the scheduled task to wake up my laptop computer to perform the backup.
    Now, after making these changes, I can see the event log that the backup started at time exact (01:00) he succeeded 30 minutes later.  I can also see on my network drive that it saved at the right time and the registry keys indicate the location of the network right.  However, when I go in the backup and restore control panel, he told me to "backup Windows has not been setup" (which previously he would show me the network location and the last backup time and the other at the request of autonomy.)
    I know that backups are still viable can I do a restore to the correct network location and properly, it shows me that I have backups on this drive.  So, why the backup and restore screen is now showing me that no backup copy has been put up any ideas?
    I'm a little worried that this change to the schedule has whacked a key somewhere that is using the backup and restore screen and finally the backups will fail and I don't notice unless I am constantly reviewing the event logs (which, for domestic use, isn't it convenient for me).

  • touchpad doesn't work on my laptop. I can't find that everything about the touch pad in Control Panel. can you help me please?

    touchpad doesn't work on my laptop.   I can't find that everything about the touch pad in Control Panel.  can you help me please?

    Hello

    It's material is not a Windows problems.

    / Settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 as you start then look at the screen - make sure that is it
    is a toggle the TouchPad that it is enabled.

    Check with support of the manufacturer system, documentation online or forums that there is probably
    Shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

    Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with TouchPad
    entries) and some have a utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock in the bottom right.

    ==========================================

    If necessary and the TouchPad makes its appearance in Device Manager: (make sure that you have restarted at least
    only once if the above did not work)

    Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touchpad - the driver tab-
    Click on update driver (it comes may not do anything like MS is far behind the drivers of certification), now right CLICK
    on the TouchPad and UNINSTALL.

    Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in). RESET

    This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad from working.

    The similar procedure on XP, Windows 7 and Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific device if present.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

    Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

    ==========================================

    This utility also allows to control the TouchPad:

  • The parameters ' view by ' control panel of Windows 8 will not stick

    Hello

    I am running Windows 8 Pro N. When I open the control panel its default view is "category". If I change this to 'Small icons', farm on Control Panel and open it again, it's back to the "category" mode

    Is there a setting that needs to be set so that this preference stick?

    Thank you

    Andy Jackson

    I had the same problem. While that the 4 steps has not worked for me either, I found a solution quite similar as Ajacks which I believe will work on all platforms of Windows 8.

    When you open Control Panel, it opens in 'Category' default mode.
    If you look at the address bar, it will just say 'Control Panel'.
    But if you switch to "Small icons" or "Large icons", the address reads now "Panel > all Control Panel items.

    If you mouse over the words "All Control Panel items", it will highlight blue. You can then click and drag on the desktop to create a shortcut. When you click this shortcut, it should open up the control panel to display small or large icons, that you last closed (category view will not count!). In addition, you can right-click on this shortcut and pine in the Start Menu or add to Favorites to access practice. You can also change the name of "Control Panel" If you don't like the name of 'All Control Panel items' bulky.

    If you want the control panel to open in category view again then do the same thing, but this time select and drag the words "Control Panel" in the address bar and pin it Start or where ever you usually click to open the control panel.

    I hope that this solution makes it easy to one who reads this to match their preference!

  • System cleaned after the attack of virus/malware using 6 recommended tools - 90% of the system is back to normal, but most of the options in the custom of open Control Panel!

    The system was attacked by a virus/spyware. Microsoft Security Essentials has been installed after that - it found nothing after a comprehensive analysis. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware has been installed, it is the largest part of it and removed. Norton 360 has found rest. SuperANTISpyware has also been installed and this has also nothing after a system scan. Then ATF Cleaner and CCleaner were used to finish with what anyone else remaining areas may be temporary.

    So right now the system is more or less fine - programs running, the internet works etc. However when I open the control panel and click on a bunch of things for example Security Center, Sound, customization etc - they open habit. You see that the cursor turns into the blue circle for a fraction of a second and then more nothing. No window opens and closes or whatever it is. Now, I assume that the pieces of the virus/spyware are still active but with all tools using the latest definitions not being not able to find anything like that, I wonder if it's just a case of something having disabled those elements and not them reactivated after cleaning. The reason why I don't think it's something malicious is also because some options such as the Windows Firewall, the Manager of devices and programs and features open and work properly. Any other malicious software would certainly avoid these access as they could help shorten.

    Please help, thanks!

  • How to display the titles in the browser using Flex 3

    Hello

    How is it possible to have a name of the browser window title?

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advnace.

    Hi Kiran,

    If you want to set the title only once in the application and if it stays the same for the rest of your app, you can simply put pageTitle = "Some Title" in your

    the main Application root tag...

    But if you want to change the title of your app frequently as you browse through different screens in your app... so you can put a public function who book the title that I posted in my previous code and call that work from different screens calling this public function using Application.application.setBrowserTitle (passmesage);

    Thank you
