In my Windows Seearch box doesn't work do not

This began a few days ago, after the last update. All my CPU used Windows 7.  The one I use actively to update Microsoft.

What has happened, is that every time I used the search box in windows, the work of research, the files I'm looking for appears and accessible. I can open it. But the problems begin when I right-click to open the menu drop down. I have often wished to use the location capability to open the folder. The problem is, now, every time that I right click on the file in the search for result, the entire system crashed and I had to reboot.

Help?

To resolve your concern, you can perform a clean boot to Windows 7. A clean boot is executed to start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This will eliminate the conflicts that occur when you install a program or a software update.

To do this, follow the steps below:

  1. Log the computer by using an account with administrator rights.
  2. Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER to start The System Configuration utility.
  3. On the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the Load Startup items check box.
  4. On the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft services check box, and then click disable all.
  5. Click OK, and then click restart.

  • Windows Update link doesn't work is not in Windows XP Pro

    Hi all

    Something strange has happened and I don't know what.

    When I click on the 'Windows Update' shortcut I get a dialog box "Help & Support", that tells me that I am not connected to the Internet and an Internet connection is sufficient.  Well, I'm connected to the Internet and I can load IE and surf the web without any problem.  I can get to 'Windows Update' by clicking on 'Tools' then 'Windows Update', while that in IE, but the abbreviation of "Windows Update" no longer works.

    Does anyone have any ideas where I could look for problems?

    Thanks for any help,

    Charles

    Hello

    Thanks for the information.  I went ahead and continued to install windows updates.  After a couple more installs and restarts the 'Windows Update' shortcut has started working again.  I have no idea why, in fact, this is the first time I've ever seen this type of error.

    In any case, the WU shortcut works for now.

  • Windows product key doesn't work is not for the reinstallation of Windows 7

    So my Lenovo (B560) became super slow and I want to wipe the hard drive and reinstall Windows 7. But when I looked on the Microsoft Web site and tried to check my key I received the following message is displayed:

    "The product key you have entered seems to be the software that was preinstalled by the manufacturer of the device. Contact the manufacturer of the device for software recovery options.

    The product key that I used was the COA sticker under the laptop which was indeed different from one I receovered from the register. In any case, I tried both and none worked.

    Ideas for how can I proceed?

    You must install OEM Lenovo recovery disks or a recovery partition to use the key.

    LR 5 doesn't work is not on the new Macbook Pro.  Have tried 2 CC downloads, download licensed 5.6 and 5.5 download licensed, all the results in the same thing.  It comes up with the screen base but no signs and gives that an error occurred when changing the modules.  Nothing I have tried seems to help.  He also said "start with lightroom mobile at the top on the left, although it said it's Lr 5.6.  Anyone else having problems?  Calls to adobe are no help and have to wait until Monday for technical support.  Surely this must run on a NEW laptop with any other installed software!

    Setup logs was very good.  Application installed but is not working properly.  Finally got Adobe support and it turns out be a file permissions error.  Had to add applications and myself as accessors of the Lightroom folder under ~/Library/Adobe/ path and set permissions to read & write (was read only for everything except system) and apply to all the cases closed.   Works fine now.  Including this here in case when someone else is going through this issue.

  • User accounts - > user accounts to manage a link doesn't work is not in Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello

    I tried to open the Panel-> user accounts-> accounts less manage accounts does not create a new account link. My OS is Windows 7 64 bit. 32-bit Internet Explore doesn't work. I tried to register the dll files to 32-bit internet explorer, but it does not work. Please help me.

    Hi Madhavaarimilli,

    -You receive an error message when you try to create a new user account or access to Internet Explorer 32-bit?

    First of all, I suggest to start the computer in safe mode and check if you can create a new account on your computer. To boot to the desktop in safe mode keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start in safe mode, select it and press ENTER.

    Access the link to learn more about how to start the computer in safe mode: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

    To create a new user account follow the steps below:

    1. open user accounts by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety (or by clicking on user accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking user accounts.

    2. click on Manage another account. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    3. click on create a new account.

    4 type the name that you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click create an account.

    If the problem persists in safe mode, I would say allowing you to run the auditor of file system (CFS) analyze and check if if helps solve you the problem.

    To run the Scan SFC follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

    2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue

    3. at the command calls, the following line and press ENTER: sfc/scannow

    Access the link below to learn more about the execution of the System File Checker:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/936212

    For question connects to open Internet Explorer, I would say to run the Internet Explorer troubleshooting utility built into Windows 7 and check to see if it helps you solve the problem.

    To run the Internet Explorer troubleshooter, follow these steps:

    1. close all programs.

    2. click on start and then click Control Panel.

    3. under system and security, click on find and fix problems.

    4. in the left pane, click View all.

    5. click on Internet Explorer Performance. This opens a new window.

    6. click Next.

    7. the resolution of the issues will take place and try to solve the issues raised everything automatically. Click Close.

    After the store has run successfully, check to see if you receive the same error.

    Also access the link below and follow the steps to solve the problem with Internet Explorer.

  • I have a brand new installation of 13 PS elements. How I have difficulty drag and drop doesn't work is not on my system Windows 7 Pro 64-bit?

    I just installed PS 13 items on my system Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. Mouse clicking works, but how I have difficulty drag and drop works do not? For example, I can't create a selection rectangle or drag the sliders or move the panels of the tool or resize a text box, I tried as an administrator (it does not help). Same "ClickLock" in Windows does not drag. No other program on my machine has problems. Help!

    Reset preferences did not set anything. Even reinstall 13 elements PS has not fixed anything.

    However, late breaking new...

    See other discussions on this topic, which suggests a conflict of startup program that might be the cause, I did some experiments.

    All the functions of the mouse to 13 PS elements worked well if I started my Windows 7 in "safe" mode
    So, back in 'normal' mode, I manually disabled all startup programs. Returned mouse problem.
    Enter the control panel "services", I disabled 'Synergy' (a program that allows me to share my keyboard and mouse between two computers). Fixed a problem.
    The reactivation of all the startup programs while leaving a synergy service is turned off, everything works still fine.
    Start all programs present and re-empowerment synergy, but turned off its 'high privilege check box. Everything is still fine.

    Conclusion: Synergy in high privilege mode service was the only culprit.
    Synergy in non high mode allows my PS 13 items and keyboard/mouse sharing to coexist.

    The strange thing is that only PS elements 13 was affected by synergy. I detect no problems anywhere else. But it doesn't matter; the new arrangement (no high synergy) works fine for everything.

  • Windows 10 install doesn't work not after reboot (works fine until the PC is rebooted).

    It's bad enough. Upgrade to windows 10. Wanted to ensure that I started with a clean slate, so I have uninstalled FireFox, and then use the new edge of Windows browser to download the latest version of FireFox.

    He moved very well, remembers my bookmarks and settings, etc. Everything seems fine.

    But after a system restart, the FireFox icon on the desktop and the taskbar are just blank page icon, and when you try to run the program it says it cannot be found, or that I don't have permission to run it.

    Let's not get too hung up on how the bad error message is (go, Windows, who is?), the problem is that a program that worked very well until I rebooted now is not found or all of a sudden, I don't have permission to run it?

    The problem is if I try to boot from the desktop shortcut or if I go directly into C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox and double-click on Firefox.exe.

    I tried the things:

    1. check the properties of the installer to download stub (Firefox Setup Stub 40.0.3.exe). I noticed that it was reported as a program that had been downloaded on the Internet and could be 'blocked '. So I checked the 'Unlock' button Did an uninstall, and then run Setup again. Everything is fine. Restart - same problem.

    2. check the properties of the installer to download stub (Firefox Setup Stub 40.0.3.exe). I noticed that there are two weird entries 'unknown user' in the settings of security with a sort of GUID. I removed those two. Did an uninstall, and then run Setup again. Everything is fine. Restart - same problem.

    3. do you have an uninstall, and then run the installer as administrator (after making the above changes). Everything is fine. Restart - same problem.

    I'm out of ideas.

    A diagnosis by a Microsoft technician during a support chat session!

    If you want to do a clean install of FireFox on your Windows machine after upgrading to Windows 10, but you had FireFox installed on Windows 7 or Windows 8 before the upgrade, you must uninstall the TWO FireFox and install the service of Maintenance of Mozilla before performing cleaning.

    If you uninstall FireFox but not the service of Maintenance of Mozilla, you will get the squirrels I described, where FireFox stops working after a reboot or a disconnection / connection.

    I think this is related to the BS that Microsoft introduced with Windows 10 where, after installing FIreFox, if you click on the button that says that you want FireFox to be your default browser is not only to persist this setting directly. Need you to the configuration screen of Windows 10 for default programs, which is not at all intuitive, especially those based on past behavior.

    I think that FireFox should put an explanatory text (on the page where you click on the button to make FireFox the default browser) which explains what Microsoft is up to.

  • Firefox doesn't work does not correctly on Windows 10

    Well, I've upgraded to Windows 10 and since then, Firefox is not working properly (not not display graphics, google sites won't load do not, etc.), I tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, I even waited for the new update... None of them worked. I read something about security certificates, saying I had to import them to Firefox, but the certificate that he mentioned did not exist in my computer. I have also disabled hardware acceleration, cleared my cache, even deleted my profile from my computer, all to nothing does not. It is sad to see the attached screen. (A text-only screen saying: "Firefox + Windows 10.) Perfect set")

    I hope you guys can resolve this problem as soon as possible. If this is happening to me, it happens to a lot of people.

    Did you secure yourself certificate errors? If Yes, do you use Avast, BitDefender, ESET or Kaspersky?

    If you do, we can give specific suggestions.*

    If this is not the case, a further 10 Windows users questions are report is that they were added to a family and their Firefox has been the subject of parental controls that causes seemingly random crashes. Try to turn off the parental control of Microsoft (or are not part of a family): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/turn-off-microsoft-family-settings

    * For Avast, you can disable the part numerical analysis of Web Shield. I saw these steps in another post:

    1. Open the Avast dashboard on an affected system.
    2. Select settings in the left side menu.
    3. Adopt a Protection Active.
    4. Click on customize next to the Web Shield.
    5. Uncheck the option "Enable HTTPS analysis", and then click ok.
