Satellite U840W - clicking the icons/applications - nothing happens
Hello
I have a Toshiba Satellite U840W-10J, have had for about 20 months without no problems so far. Without warning and apparently at random times, my laptop loses its ability to launch any application. If I select an application icon from the menu start/work station or to a file in a folder, nothing happens. Applications that are already open when the problem affects work very well, if I close them I can't reopen. My office then goes black and my desktop icons disappear, everything except the Recycle Bin.
I can only restart the computer by pressing the power or by using CTRL + ALT + DELETE key. My laptop is restarted it will then work as usual for a period of time before the same thing happens again. I use Windows 8.1 and I have McAfee Internet Security installed. The problem started about 2 weeks ago.
Any ideas or support would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Hi Iwan
According to your message the laptop together problems might arise due to some malfunction of the system/software... I think that no one will be able to tell what is the problem with preinstalled system, but you can try to solve the problem of cleaning the registry and operating system.
How?
I could recommend one freeware tool called CCleaner... this software was already mentioned in the different forum discussions and it helps you to clean the registry and remove the temporal files stored...
In the event that this software does not help, try to repair the system using Windows 8.1 repair solutions: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2A03ES0000R01.htm
The "Refresh" option could be the key here...But in the worst case, if you would not be able to resolve the problem by using the "refresh" option, then you could try to recover the laptop using the Toshiba HDD recovery... "Reset your PC" would be the next possible step...

I just loaded 10 Firefox. When I click the icon for Firefox, I get a tab at the top left of the screen, but the home page of Firefox is not running. The tab seems to deal with security, and among other things, I learn that my use of Firefox is not encrypted; I don't really like, all I want to do is axccess Firefox. How can I get rid of this dumb tab, and how to restore my access to Firefox?
Also you can try using lightshot application, it works really good for me.
Otherwise use PRNTSCREEN and paste with CTRL + V in paint application that accept that.
You can also attach pictures like this: http://prntscr.com/6882h -

my internet does not come on directly when I click the icon Internet... a window usually appears gaveme alternate programs of your choice. It's a pain because it was not like this before. Help, please!
Hi hamnej,
What is the 'alternative' open window that keeps popping up and what alternative programs you are requested to choose? Either by the way, not by chance is offered a selection of browsers to choose (this must be done in the UK and the European Union). If so just click OK button to connect to the internet. Once you have done this you will be given the choice of browser. If you do not want to change the browser, you already have IE 8.0, so I see no reason to change, then close the window and have no other problems. If you have a "Choose Browser" icon on your desktop, it can be removed.
