• In the control panel under Tools, folder, file types options, why are there items her don't have next to them?

  According to my question in the title above... Tab file types... Why is it (NO) next to audio CD, disc, DVD, and a little more such elements as the folder of file, folder and to allocate to the Protocol.

  Reason why I ask this is I just do a fresh install of Windows XP with SP2 and I installed SP3 after that on an old computer that was in need of a new facility. I continued to get the AutoPlay window I went to the CD and DVD players and set everything to TAKE NO ACTION. I wonder if I made a mistake by doing this. I was half way tempted to do the same for drive C, but I did not.  Is there something I can do to correct what I do that I should not have?

  Also, I noticed that my computer is really slow now and it was not before.

  Thank you

  The [NONE] you're referring to means that there are has file extensions associated with things such as Audio CDs, disks and DVDs.

  A "file extension" is the 3-(4-parfois) part of a file name that comes after the period character.  For example, in "Document.doc" file extension is doc.

  Made settings were - as you noted correctly - in the AutoPlay dialog box.  These settings determine what Windows does when a removable storage device is connected.  Depending on the type of multimedia content detected on the device, you can choose from a variety of "Manipulative Autoplay" to deal with this content.

  "Take no action" is not a bad default.

  If you want to change your mind, open my computer and right-click on the icon for a CD/DVD/USB device and select the tab "Autoplay".  You can choose from a variety of types of "content" and then choose which application should open.  For more flexibility, TweakUI--> http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-xp or see

  Also, I noticed that my computer is really slow now and it was not before.

  A number of things could happen here.

  Have you installed all necessary drivers after you reinstalled Windows?

  Have you installed an antivirus application before connecting to the Internet?

  Have you applied all post-sp3 Windows critical updates before you begin to surf the Internet?

  Did you uninstall the trial versions of software antivirus which have been replaced (unless your new Windows installation was a "clean install")?

  Please follow the steps from the link below.

  Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

• When you try to uninstall several programs via the Control Panel, I get a message that "another installation is in progress and must be completed first". I have no other current facilities. Windows XP Home Edition

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Hello dutchb,

  The error, "another installation is in progress and must be completed first" can be attributed to the InProgress key found in the registry at:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress

  Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.

  I suggest that first make a backup of the registry or a system restore point. Then go to control panel, administrative tools, Services. Do scroll down and find the Windows Installer service, and set the start at the stop State. Delete the registry key to the location above.

  Now, you shouldn't get the installation in the progress message when you try to uninstall programs.

  I hope this helps.

  Sincerely,

  I am running windows vista 64-bit. I also have downlaoded and installed service pack 1 or 2 - I forgot.

• problem with the control panel.

  I have a laptop with win7 32 bit. I installed 3 days ago and yesterday when I want to go in Panel said that Explorer Windows has stopped working. Except that everything works perfectly.
  I don't know what to do, I tried everything. I did the test of memory, I checked all the files *. Cpl, I scan the viruses and malware (I have kaspersky internet security), I put the control panel to show me that I can access the options menu, it does not work, I tried to install the patch 296 934 and he said something like that is not suitable for the operating system... I'm desperate, I don't know what to do.
  Can you help me please?

  Please excuse my English.

  IF it works in safe mode, you can use a clean boot to diagnose what is causing the problem. It won't take long to test.

  Another thing to try is to create a new user profile and connect through that to see if a new user can access control panel. You can delete the new account if it is not helping, or transfer your data to the new account if it helps.

  You might also consider trying a repair to re install - install windows 'above' of your existing system which should NOT replace your existing installation or data.

  Or, if this happened recently, you could try a system restore to a point before the error occurred.

• Power options in the control panel are empty - can't do anything.

  Recently, I noticed that the Power Options in the control panel is empty.  I can't create something or do something there.  Could something in Services.msc have disabled this?  Nowhere part that I should look at?  I cannot stop, restart, or put it to sleep.  Also when I start the computer (once using the hardware Reset button on the computer case) he does not remember my user name.  He asks me every time.  There is no password.  I just press ENTER after entering my user name.

  So I found the magic formula to use the command run and it resets everything back to normal.  Can't find it now but if you google it you can find.  You want to reset the Power Options in the control panel.

  His time, I have contributed something here!  I'm always ask questions and rarely give all the answers.  :)

• Update of Photoshop CC and now the Control Panel tool is missing. How can I restore Panel tool?

  Windows 10.

  Yesterday Photoshop CC asked if I wanted an update.

  I said yes, now I can't find the control panel of the tool that used to be to the left of my screen.

  How can I get that back?

• Missing audio device of the control panel.

  Several days ago, I opened the control panel to troubleshoot an audio device. The Control Panel showed two audio devices:

  1: ATI PNP
  HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_1002 & DEV_AA01 & SUBSYS_00AA0100 & REV_1001\5 & B0AB116 & 0 & 0001
  Driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\atihdmi.sys (7.11.0.7703, 114,00 KB (116 736 bytes), 02/09/2010 12:34 AM)
  2: REALTEK PNP
  HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_10EC & DEV_0888 & SUBSYS_103C2A92 & REV_1002\4 & 19 19054 & 0 & 0001 c
  Driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\rtkvhd64.sys (6.0.1.6196, 2.37 MB (2 484 072 bytes), 07/09/2010 12:27)

  Both devices are still listed under system information/system/components tools, but:

  At some point during the configuration of the device from Realtek, ATI device disappeared from the control panel. Since then, I have found no way to adjust its properties, much less put on the control panel.

  The only other change observed: formerly the computer sounds internal (startup, error, stop, etc.) remained internal. Now, I can hear them through the external speakers - acceptable but not optimal.

  Any help would be appreciated.

I will certainly help you to question, however, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

  (a) what is the brand and model number. the USB HDD?

  (b) has detected before HARD drive in my computer screen? If so, did you do changes on the computer before this problem?

  (c) that you get an unrecognized USB device notification error message?

  2. In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
  3. Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
  4. Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
