• Unable to see the Internet Explorer icon on the start screen

  Original title: Internet Explorer 8

  I did a cover a couple of days. Once this was done, I tried to install IE8.1 which failed due to 185 Microsoft Updates that must be filled. I allowed the updates to install, and now the IE icon is not in the bar of tools or even included in the applications.

  I tried and tried to reinstall IE8 or even version 8.1 which will not download. I have not physically installed Microsoft 10.

  I also welcomed the firewall off which did not help.

  Can someone give me some good advice on how to reinstall IE8?

  Thank you

• Display all icons on the desktop as a symbol of Internet Explorer icon

  Office documents/programs (Skype, browser choice) are all now showing white pages with simbol Explorer? Can directly open them, all that happens is a window opens "View downloads-Windows Internet Explorer" to open the program I have to right click and open the new tab to access the program. Can anyone help?

  It seems that your system may have been infected by malware; I had malware on my computer which has caused similar behavior, it will screw up the file associations and ensure that Windows does not know which application is related to the type of file or shortcut.

  You can try to start in Safe Mode and run a cleaning tool malicious software such as Microsoft Security Essentials or Malwarebytes to find and remove malware or other software bad things that could have caused this.

• When I start the computer, sometimes the icon in the taskbar indicates that it is connected to a network that is not identified. I wait a few minutes until what he says at last he is identified & seems to work very well.

  Original title: Internet wireless connection

  I use a PC & a cable modem wireless to connect to the Internet.  When I start the computer, sometimes the icon in the taskbar indicates that it is connected to a network that is not identified.  I wait a few minutes until what he says at last he is identified & seems to work very well.  The only other issue I see is once in a while after it is connected, I noticed that it is to identify the network connection, but I see no problem to surf the web.  This could be a looming problem with the modem, or is it something else?  Should I consider it as my modem is still under warranty?  ARRIS / Motorola wants to charge a diagnostic fee is why I write on this forum first.

• Advertising, freezing the icons on the taskbar

  I have a laptop G7. I get this pop up telling me I need to upgrade to flash player pro. I click it off and then it freezes the icons on the taskbar. Those on the office work. I have the icon of chrome from google on this subject or I couldn't get to internet. Any ideas on how to stop this. I can restart the computer and it isn't there and they work until I get on the internet and it appears again and then he freezer them again. I don't want or need the pro version.

  Hi nana4c,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I would like to take a moment and thank you for using the forum, it's a great place to find answers. You have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  I understand that, after connecting to the Internet, you get a popup telling you that you need to update Flash Player Pro and you click out of it.  Once you have done this, freeze your task bar icons, but continue to work your desktop icons. You have Google Chrome on your desktop and are able to access the Internet after that happens.

  What browser do you initially use to access the Internet?  Try starting with one another, if you do not have the same problem, I suggest to uninstall and reinstall this browser at the origin of the problem.

  If you get the same result with another browser, try the following steps.

  Go to the command prompt and do a right click on it and select run as administrator

  Type sfc/scannow, and then press on enter

  It will look for corrupted files and try to fix them.

  I hope this has helped.

• How to add sounds to the light icons in the taskbar when events happening?

  Well, my question is maybe very simple, I hope I can get help here, I ve been wondering how to make the icons on the taskbar sound when something happens for example when you receive a message 'Skype', the light of the task bar, but in my case they do not all sound the answer to that might be in the Skype settings, but, I want is doing the actual windows to make a sound to tell me something that is happening there, and of course I can chose the sound of that.

  the example of "Skype" might not be the best here, lets say another software, when is reduced and something happens, call your attention to the icon in the taskbar with start to glow, but sometimes I'm in another place, or looking for another way I could not miss this event in this software need my immediately attention with sound, I could turn on my loud speakers so I will be heard.

  Thank you

  Hello Derwyn,

  Thank you for your response.

  I appreciate your time and your concern.

  Unfortunately, the desired Windows sound is not included in the Windows sound scheme.

  However, in the article in the previous post on changing the sounds of the computer, you can see under the heading 'Windows Explorer' under the window 'events of the program'inside'sound'. You can find the other sounds of Windows Explorer as blocked pop-up navigation block, empty, trash, move menu items and so on.

  Thank you

• Unity Mode - icons in the taskbar on the host do not work as expected for some applications

  In Unity mode, the icons in the taskbar on the host computer do not work as expected for some applications. The following problems may occur:

  1. several icons for a single application.

  2 aero Peek does not work if the application is reduced.

  3 icon moves to the end of the task bar after restoration of the collapsed state.

  These problems make it difficult to work in Unity mode. Here are some details about my setup:

  VMware Workstations Version: 7.0.1 build 227600

  Host: Windows 7 64-bit (all updates applied)

  Client: Windows XP (all updates applied)

  Steps on how to reproduce the issue n ° 1:

  1. start the mode of the unit for Windows XP clients.

  2. launch Visual Studio 2003 on the start menu of the unit.

  3. minimize and optimize Visual Studio 2003. Finally, you should see several icons, each with a different air look.

  When this happens, you can maximize is more than a simple click (as there are a stacked icons). Sometimes, only one of the icons to display Visual Studio 2003 (when testing this now, the other icon displays a portion of the Office of comments). If multiple copies of Visual Studio 2003 are launched, it is difficult to know who is who.

  Procedure reproduce problem 2:

  1. start the mode of the unit for Windows XP clients.

  2. launch Visual Studio 2003 on the start menu of the unit.

  3 minimize Visual Studio 2003.

  4. place the cursor on the icon. You should see the icon in Aero Peek (similar to the Aero Peek look when you use Microsoft Windows XP Mode).

  Aero Peek works great for other applications reduced, such as Windows Explorer.

  Steps on how to reproduce the issue n ° 3:

  1. start the mode of the unit for Windows XP clients.

  2. launch Visual Studio 2003 on the start menu of the unit.

  3. start Windows Explorer in the start menu of the unit.

  4 to minimize Visual Studio 2003.

  5 optimize Visual Studio 2003. The icon disappears briefly and then displayed in a different location (to the right of the icon in Windows Explorer).

  I guess that these issues will eventually with the similar Microsoft products such as SQL Server Management Studio, newer versions of Visual Studio, Microsoft Office (I guess just--I have not tried other programs).

  These questions, it is very difficult to use Visual Studio 2003 in Unity Mode, which is the main application, I need to use the virtual machine. I would love to see these issue fixed.

  Kind regards

  Tim

  Hi Tim, this behavior all boils down to the fact that when you reduce the VS, is not to minimize as windows normally do. VS hides the main window, and then returns to the window in the reduced state.  When the host sees the window becomes hidden, she removes the button from the taskbar to the window of the unit; There is no way of knowing that the window will be re-shown again later.  The thumbnail Aero does not work for the reduced window because the host never saw this window in its normal state, so that the host knows not what are the contents of the window.

  The good news is that you can work around the button behavior of taskbar in Workstation 7.1 by pinning the window VS. In this way, the taskbar button will always be there no matter how many times the window of the unit is shown/hidden. It will not solve the problem of thumb nail, however.

• 10.0 Firefox now creates a new icon on the taskbar of Windows 7 whn launched. Why?

  With earlier versions of Firefox on Windows 7, I got 1 icon on the task bar and I would stay at this icon to go to the program. Now, at the launch of Firefox, that it creates an icon on the taskbar and it is confusing, because I'm used to return to the original icon, except that now it opens a new session of Firefox that I don't want. How to return to 1 icon?

  After clicking on the favorite taskbar icon and firefox opens a "new Session".
  DETACH the old icon and the PIN, then the "New Session" icon.

  Then from this point on 1 single icon will appear in the taskbar.
