Is there a way to enable the paging or word count in Word Pad

There is no paging or number of words I can find in the Word Pad toolbar. Is it possible for me to activate these functions? Thanks, rich

Hello RichZieler,

WordPad is a pretty basic word processing application and, therefore, contains no refinements such as the number of words etc. However, there are free alternatives that you might like to take a look at. One such alternative is Apache Open Office: https://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html

Another alternative is LibreOffice: http://www.libreoffice.org/discover/libreoffice/

These two apps are free.

    Hi Kazim,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    In addition, I really appreciate your efforts by providing descriptive information on the issue. However, I would like to know some more information to refine the question and provide you with better assistance.

    1. You did it any significant hardware or change software on the computer before this problem?
    2. The problem is specific to the built-in weather app?
    3. Do you use a proxy connection to connect to the internet?
    4. You have security software installed on your computer?

    The question may arise if there is a corruption in the specific application, due to internet connection proxy, date and time incorrect or due to one-third of the anti-virus firewall is blocking the connection. Therefore, in order to diagnose and resolve the issue, I suggest you to try the following steps and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Step 1:

    Please go to the link below, download the file and run it.

    Download and run the troubleshooter modern UI App.

    If the problem persists, try the following method.

    Method 2:

    I suggest you try the steps mentioned below and see if it works for you.

    Step 1:

    Ensure that User Account Control (UAC) is enabled. Press the Windows key and from the splash screen, type "UAC" and on the right, select settings.
    Select change user account control settings and check here.

    Follow these steps to change the time.

    1. Double-click the current time on the lower right of your screen.
    2. Then click on change time date, and then click change time zone.
    3. Select your time zone and check automatically adjust the clock for the time, then press OK.
    4. Then press on apply and OK.

    Method 3:

    If you got in third-party antivirus installed on your computer, I suggest you temporarilydisable it. The third of the anti-virus firewall sometimes became a major cause of the issue.

    If the problem does not occur after you turn off the anti-virus, try reinstalling the anti-virus.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attack.

    Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

  • Is there a way to enable and configure Volume discounts through the import spreadsheet product? Is there a way to allow more than 2 quantity thresholds?

    Is there a way to enable and configure Volume discounts through the import spreadsheet product? Is there a way to allow more than 2 quantity thresholds?

    Hi Michael,

    You can set thresholds via an import file. The best way to do this (and this goes for all importable data, included webapps, 301 redirects and so on) is the following:

    1. go to the Admin and create a single element, in case you create a product to test and set limits

    2. export these data - in your case, export product list

    3-take a look at how the data looks like in the export file to get an idea of how the format should be in the import file

    Unfortunately, you cannot set more than 2 thresholds, what is not possible at the moment.

    Thank you

  • Is there a way to make the safari opens a new page every time?

    Hello

    I'm kinda new here and I would like to ask a question. I now use an iPhone as a primary device, instead of Android. But is there a way to make the safari to remove all tabs when you close, and when you open it, it just opened a new page or a blank page? My phone is just laying around sometimes and I let my friends to use. But when I close safari after I order something or when I'm checking my bank account, they can all see when they open up safari...

    All I can think is to close all tabs before close Safari, or use it in private Mode:

  • Is there a way to enable LiveCycle forms is visible in Firefox or Chrome without turning off their built-in PDF readers?

    Is there a way to enable LiveCycle forms is visible in Firefox or Chrome without turning off their built-in PDF readers?

    I read an article which stipulates that, in order to view the XFA forms in Firefox and Chrome, you will need to turn off their built-in PDF rendering engine. However, this seems a lot of work for my end users. Is there a way to activate the form to open without turning off their PDF rendering engine built into Firefox and Chrome? Is there a setting somewhere?

    # Third for interactive PDFs of any kind is rare. I don't think that built-in player of the two browsers can handle XFA or AcroForms. Look at (Support XML Forms Architecture (XFA) forms · Number #2373 · Mozilla/PDF.js · GitHub) for more details. PDF is a complex standard, and most viewers have problems enough supporting the basic principles. Of course, you could look at following Adobe LiveCycle server, which allows the rendered HTML of XFA forms.

  • Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar?

    Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar? This feature in conflict with my program of multiple monitors (display fusion) since this program allows you to change your current active window the monitor 1 monitor 2 and vice versa BY clicking the header of BAR SCROLLING (or whatever you call the highest part of your window). With firefox, I can't easily change my active window between monitors because instead, it opens a new tab.

    If the window is maximized, you can then switch this pref to disable the display of the tabs in the title bar:

    • browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar = false

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.
