In HKEY_USERS\ Shell folders values. By DEFAULT keeps changing
I have a screen saver application (Google Photo Sideshow) which seems to look at the value AppData Local stored in the registry of the user Shell folders key in defining its cache folder, which is in turn the location of the XML file that tells it where to find pictures. (Sorry, I know that was complicated). Anyway, I also wanted to set the screen saver to the Windows login screen in the HKEY_USERS\. DEFAULT registry section.
My problem is that the values stored in the Shell folders for it. DEFAULT profile continues to change. Sometimes they point to C:\Documents and default User\... and sometimes they change to C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\... and sometimes the fair white value out completely.
Can someone tell me what controls the values stored in this folder, and why they keep changing? The user Shell folders paths all remain constant with % USERPROFILE%\... I searched for this answer for weeks and can't seem to find someone who can tell me why these values change according to what rules they changes, etc...
Any help would be greatly appreciated... :)

The value of default setting in organization, self recording reqest
Hello
When the end-user function triggers a request for free registration, it goes to the Manager's approval. And the Manager must update this request with the value of the organization manually. Is it possible to set a value by default to this?
Please let me know.You must create a pre-populate for this adapter.
Use the code to achieve the same below.
import java.io.Serializable;
Import oracle.iam.request.exception.RequestServiceException;
Import oracle.iam.request.plugins.PrePopulationAdapter;

Value of default field after losing focus
I have a field called P21_IDCODE. If the user perforations or click on this field, then clicks or tablets so that the field loses focus, I want to check if the field is empty and fill it with a value by default if it is empty. I created a dynamic Action with these settings:
Event: Lose Focus
Type of selection; Agenda
Article: P21_IDCODE
Condition: No conditional dynamic Action
Real action settings:
Action: Set
Fires when the result of the event is: true
Fire on loading the page: unchecked
Stop execution error: unchecked
Set type: Expression JavaScript
Expression of JavaScript:
If (P21_IDCODE is nothing)
{P21_IDCODE = "My value"}
Affected elements... Selection type: trigger Element
If I just use a simple string as "My value" in the JavaScript expression, this works, so I know the theme is losing the ceremony working.
What I am doing wrong in the JavaScript?Hello!
Try this:
If ($v ('P21_IDCODE' == null))
{
$s ('P21_IDCODE', 'Value')';
or
document.getElementById('P21_IDCODE').value = "my value";

Why the brightness of the screen on my Tablet keep changing suddenly?
Why the brightness of the screen on my Tablet keep changing suddenly?
Some tablets have a light sensor Adaptive that detects the actual brightness in the room and adjusts the brightness of the screen accordingly. If the light hitting the sensor is constantly changing, or if you accidentally cover this sensor with your hand or thumb, it can fool the sensor into thinking that you are in a room dark and it will lower the brightness on the screen.
In Windows 8, the Adaptive brightness setting is enabled by default. You may be able to prevent unwanted changes in the brightness of the screen by deactivating the Adaptive brightness setting.
1. on the home screen, type Control Panel , and select the control panel.
2. set the display: drop-down category menu
3. Select the material and audio.
4. Select Power Options.
5. Select the link Edit plan settings on your current power plan
6. Select change advanced power settings
7. develop the display
8 expand enable adaptive brightness
9. set the setting to Off , then select OK.

Problem with the default printer, changing the Fax 8600 8600
Windows 10 with the latest installation of the 8600 software
This problem occurs in the printer Assistant software when you use "send a Fax".
By clicking "Send a Fax" will cause my default printer change to the 8600 fax.
I don't know how to change it in devices and printers, but hopes to fix the problem.
Thanks for the reply.
In fact, I found the solution. It was a setting of Windows 10.
Apparently, 10 Windows will change the default printer to the printer last used (in this case, the printer named as the "fax" printer).
To fix this, I went to:
Beginning
Parameters
Devices of
Printers, Scanners &
and turned off the coast "Let Windows manage my default printer"This solves the problem. Coming from Windows 7 I wasn't aware of this setting.

Why my icons on my desktop keep changing
My favorite site icons keep changing to blue globe just out of the blue. How can I stop this?
Thank you for the update.
File Ntuser.dat is normal is displayed on your computer. It's a registry file of the Windows operating system that contains personal files and preferences for each user account. It is not harmful. File Ntuser.dat are invisible, except if you set your settings to show hidden files (which I think we did before). Deleting the file Ntuser.dat will remove also all the account settings and cause the damaged profile.
For more information, kindly check this link.
Regarding your concern to icon, we suggest you to do what we did before that is to clear the cache of the icon. After that, run your computer in a clean boot by disabling startup programs to check if there is any third-party program causing these. Watch it and leave it in the boot for a day to check if she always changes the icons. To run your computer in a clean boot state, please follow the steps in this link.
Let us know how it goes.

First try the simple solution. Right click on the printer in devices and printers, then select 'see what's printing. When the printer queue window opens, click on "Printer" and ensure that there is no check next to 'Use printer offline'. If there is a control, click once to remove it.
