Internet shortcuts do not work.

original title: my internet shortcuts are open as word documents in word 2007.  everything is out of order

I tried to download my current account controls and the format has changed. When I went back on the desk and tried to open the shortcut, all sites open in Word 2007.

Hi cpasternack,
 
1. is the issue limited with a specific file?
2 have had any changes made to the computer before the question?
3. what version of Windows are you using?
 
See the following steps:
Method 1:
Step 1:
Difficulty of broken desktop shortcuts and common system maintenance tasks
 
Step 2:

If the problem persists, turn the computer in a clean boot state and check if the problem persists.

b. refer to the KB Microsoft article below for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in XP:

    Looks like your Windows file associations have to dispose. This means that XP doesn't know what to do with files by looking at the file extension (.exe for executables)., .doc for MS documents, etc.

    If you don't have it you, something done for you - most likely malware.

    Go to this site WWW by Doug Knox:

    http://www.dougknox.com/

    On the left, click on the Win XP fixes, file Association fixed and read the instructions at the top of the page.

    Download the EXE File Association Fix on your desktop, unzip the file and apply it by following the instructions at the top of the page, then to restart and test.

    Run the following scans for malware, and then fix any problems:

  • I uninstalled firefox, but impossible to reinstall because the internet explore is not work

    I wanted to reinstall firefox so I went to add/remove prog. and deleted.

    The reason to install it again was because he stopped to hold my passwords.

    Hi zaqzaq,

    You can download the installer of firefox (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/) on your second computer, copy it to a flashdrive and then install it on your first computer.

    I don't ' think that firefox does nothing to internet explore. The only thing I can think is that you may have firefox as default browser. However, would not prevent Explorer to work. If your question is about what's wrong with explorer, it might be useful to a microsoft forum.

  • P850 satellite and a WiFi - internet connection does not work well

    Hello

    My internet connection does not work with a Wi - Fi connection.
    I have laptop Satellite P850-131, which I bought a few months ago and I noticed that over the past two months the internet connection does not work well. When I connect to the computer shows that I am connected Wi - Fi connections, however there is no connection and I can't access the internet.

    I tried to do all the regular search but nothing works. Sometimes the message I get told that there is a problem with the DNS and other times with the IP address. However, with other computers I didn't have any problem at all to connect to the same Wi-Fis.

    All solutions?

    > When I connect to the computer shows that I am connected Wi - Fi connections, however there is no connection and I can't access the internet.

    If such a problem would appear again start the console (window BACK in typing CMS in search)

  • Satellite L20-264: wireless Internet access does not work

    I have a US Robotics router and a wireless laptop, I followed the instructions exactly in the manual to set up but the internet still does not work wireless but it works through the ethernet connection.

    Can someone help me please.
    If it helps my laptop model is 264 L20
    Thank you

    It is a pity that you describe your problem WLAN so little time and we don t know what you tried exactly and what results are there.

    For properly WLAN use two hardware components must be configured right - the router itself and laptop. It will be interesting to know on what are the instructions you wrote.

    Are you sure that your router is configured correctly?

  • [LAVA Cross Post] CTRL + SHIFT + Alpha shortcuts do not work in LabVIEW

    Cross-post from the LAVA: http://lavag.org/topic/15619-ctrlshift-shortcuts-sometimes-not-working-in-labview/

    Bug Synopsis: CTRL + SHIFT + Alpha shortcuts do not work in LabVIEW. In particular, CTRL + SHIFT + Z, CTRL + SHIFT + E and CTRL + SHIFT + S

    Test installation: 32-bit LV2012 with the patch of f1 running on Win7 64-bit inside a Parallels VM in OS X 10.8.1 8

    To sum up the tests, I tried:

    • Several different combinations LabVIEW, guest OS and host OS all fail, including:
      • LV2012f1 32 and 64-bit and 32-bit LV2009
      • Win7 32 and 64-bit and Windows XP x 64
      • Parallels and Parallels 7 8
      • OS X 10.7 and 10.8
    • Capturing the keyboard to the virtual machine
    • Turn each keyboard setting possible on Parallels, guest and host
    • Reinstall the keyboard drivers
    • Connect a checked keyboard that works on a native Windows machine
    • LabVIEW.ini deleting and letting it regenerate
    • Remapping the shortcuts, for example, CTRL + SHIFT + E to CTRL + E - in this case, 'Show project' works, so this may indicate that it is a problem registering the shortened press, do not invoke the action itself.
    • Sending via the keystrokes on-screen keyboards of guest and host
    • Sending the sequence of keys via SendInput by user32.dll WinAPI
    • Test every imaginable combo of SHIFT, ALT/OPTION, FN, COMMAND/CMD, CONTROL
    • Reinstall the virtual machines from scratch and relocation of LV
    • Here's a kicker: CTRL + SHIFT + Alpha shortcuts work very well on other windows programs (I tried 4 different programs, including Chrome, Notepad ++, Paint.NET), but it does NOT work for VIPM with CTRL + SHIFT + C. This means that only two programs where there are CTRL + MAJ + Alpha bugs are both related to LabVIEW.
    • Here's a better: it is only CTRL + SHIFT + Alpha shortcuts with the prob - CTRL + SHIFT + 3 properly active / deactivates grid alignment and the "tools > Options > Menu shortcuts" will record any shortcut CTRL + MAJ + Non-alpha; He was not only meets the shortcuts CTRL + SHIFT + Alpha.

    New idea of troubleshooting is highly appreciated; Please feel free to jump in here or on the LAVA.

    X. says:

    Still well and alive in Parallels 9 and LabVIEW 2013 SP1. Of course I could upgrade the latest versions to see if things have become more.

  • Help, INternet explorer does not work after windows update

    One day, the computer automatically downloads and installs the programs that are recommended by microsoft windows.
     
    After installation, my INternet explorer does not work.

    It reads:

    Windows could not access 'ie.redirect.hp.com '.
    Windows received an HTTP error message: 403 (refused).
    -> If this problem is consistenly prevent windows to connect to several sites on the Internet, contact your network administrator or your ISP.

    Then I click ok, and then try to go on 'www.google.com '.
    It still does not work, so I click on diagnose connection problems
    This time, it reads:

    Windows not found no problem with the network connection on this computer.

    You want to report the problem to Microsoft? Additional details about what went wrong can help create a solution. The report will be sent the next time you go online.
    Send information

    But when I send, I can not because I have Canon go online on my Internet Explore.
    When he first stopped working, I could use the system restore, but after a few months I dropped and now I can't restore the system to a place that it worked fine.

    I also know that this problem is not the administrator of network or something like that because I downloaded Firefox when IE stopped working, and Firefox works fine.

    I tried everything, but I can not do it by myself, so help please!

  • Internet Explorer does not work correctly?

    My Microsoft Internet explorer is not working properly and I had some problems with viruses that have been resolved.  I use Goodgle Chrome to do what I have to, but that's all.  I use Yahoo mail and cannot do so with Internet Explorer?  What can I do to clean Internet Explorer?

    You should review seriously use IE for anything other than Windows Update. It's a malware magnet. Firefox or Chrome with blockers of advertising would be a better choice.

    Unfortunately, I do not have malware. I just never get everything... maybe 1 or 2 in my life.

    I would like to have your PC checked by an expert from malware. They're at BleepingComputer.com (the creators of MalwareBytes and other malicious software utilities)... Tell them what you told me in the I'm infected? forum and they give you a certificate of good health.
