Minesweeper adventure no longer works on any device
I have three devices with Windows 8.1; a desktop computer, laptop computer and the Surface RT. I have Minesweeper installed on all three, and all three are up to date with Windows Update and the Windows App store. A couple of weeks Minesweeper stopped working on all three. I don't remember there being a update on this day or any other action that might have caused this.
Behavior:
Start Minesweeper since the start page
Minesweeper main page is in place
Click adventure
Click on the cloud to use or local use (fails, anyway)
"Start" of the splash screen appears for a few seconds
Home page refers to Windows without running the adventure
Minesweeper still appears in the applications running and when I come back to it, it is still at its home page
Other Minesweeper features work very well
Tried:
Minesweeper mines of uninstalling and reinstalling
Windows refreshing 8.1 by restoration
A couple of weeks for pending updates - have installed all updates during the last two weeks

Hi van Goethem,
As this problem is specific to the application of Minesweeper, I would contact the Minesweeper Microsoft support for assistance.
See supported option in this link: http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-gb/app/microsoft-minesweeper/45ac18d7-e742-494f-a1b1-009aa412a179

Replace old hard drive with an SSD. Now some of the keys on the keyboard stopped working. Ex 'e' and 'b' keys no longer work? Any idea what could take place in the disc replacement?
Probably nothing, it's probably a fluke. Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM by iMac Intel SCM and reset the PRAM. If this does not work, try a USB keyboard to test, if it works then your original keyboard has failed and must be replaced.

A USB cable will work with any device?
Title: USB cable original
Hello.
Let's say that a SCART is not equipped with a USB cable.
Is a 'universal' USB cable to work with "any" device USB or different types of devices have different types/forms of USB cables?
Thank you.
USB is pretty universal. The flat rectangular plug that goes in your computer is known as a 'Type A '. The square plug that usually goes into a printer is a "Type B". There are also small connectors (Mini-A, Mini-B, Micro-AB, and Micro-B).
<>http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#Connector_types >
Generally, if you find a cable with the appropriate connectors, this will work. If the device to which you are connecting does not fall into a general 'category' (e.g. mass storage devices), then the driver software may be necessary at the end of the computer.
HTH,

Updated my 6 s more to iOS 9.3.1 and bluetooth no longer works on all devices.
After the upgrade, my bluetooth headset and car of office no longer work. Is no longer working, I mean by that is a horrible connection combined with an intermittent audio muting. Get back to 9.3 and see if that helps. Anyone else having the same problem?
Have you ever tried to force reboot the phone by holding down the button sleep and home for 10 seconds, until the Apple logo comes back again?
You won't lose data, but it can cure some problems after installing new software.
If this does not work, and where you live updated, try to set it back to the factory settings and of restoring the last backup again:

Since switching to windows 7, my finger pad no longer works. Any help appreciated
My finger pad no longer works since moving to Windows 7. I looked good and tried as far as I know how, now I'm lost... Please help!
You may download your touchpad software which feeds it. You can do it from the website of your computer manufacturer. Just look at their section downloads/software/drivers. You will take just the model number of your computer and they will present you all the drivers they have. Just take one for the touchpad and install it.

The search feature no longer works in any of my projects generated HTML help recently
I use 10.0.1.292 HR and HR 11.0.4.291 for different projects.
Recently, I noticed that the search feature returns no result, in one of my projects that are generated in either Rh10 or 11. I just get the message 'no topics found. It's used to work.
The only thing that was made recently (that I can think of) involved working with the .slp files to fix a problem with the glossary tab and the search functionality in a HR 11 Responsive HTML5 layout. (https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1690579) I, however, do not see how this would break the search functionality in my HTML projects.
Any ideas?
In both 10 and 11, HR whenever I generated a project like HTML Help (still an example of project) the search functionality was broken. Finally, when I couldn't think what else to try, I uninstalled and reinstalled 10 HR, and that solved my problem - HR 10 and 11!
Apparently some file has been corrupted, but I don't know what broke or what caused the corruption. I'm still trying to get clarification from Adobe, but so far, I only received the following comments:
- The robohelp cache folder and preferences may have caused this.
- The problem can be either with updates on the system.
If I should receive any definitive information, I will update this post.
Thank you.

Desktop Shortcuts no longer work on winxp
Desktop Shortcuts no longer work on winxp.
My Shortcuts no longer work on any of the acc on my computer please hlp? !!Hi Ktoffetti,
- Did you the latest changes on the computer?
- What happens when you try to access the shortcut on the desktop?
- You receive an error message?
- You have security software installed on the computer?
Method 1
See the link below and run the fixit tool, check if it helps.
Difficulty of broken desktop shortcuts and common system maintenance tasks
http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/system_maintenance_for_windows/
Method 2
If the previous step fails, then check if the problem persists in the safe mode and after return with the result.
A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222
Method 3
If the problem persists in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.
I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

VPN access no longer works after upgrade from 10 IOS! Any input to fix?
VPN access no longer works after update IOS 10! With the help of an iPhone 5 or 6, our employees use their hotspot phone to connect to our VPN. Suddenly, he broke Monday after the upgrade to IOS 10. We have experienced many versions of IOS, and it has always worked. Any patch available?
Hello howlindaug,
Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.If I understand your message that your employees will no longer be able to connect to your virtual private network with their iPhone 5 or 6 after the upgrade to iOS 10. Sierra Mac OS and iOS 10 delete a VPN profile PPTP connections when a user upgrades from their device. If your VPN is a PPTP connection, you'll want to use one of the options listed in the section below:
Prepare for removal of PPTP VPN before upgrade you to iOS 10 and macOS Sierra
Alternatives for PPTP VPN connections
Try one of these other VPN protocols for authentication by user that are safer:
- L2TP/IPSec
- IKEv2/IPSec
- Cisco IPSec
- VPN SSL clients on the App Store, such as those of AirWatch, Aruba, Check Point, Cisco, F5 Networks, MobileIron, NetMotion, Open VPN, Palo Alto Networks, Pulse Secure and SonicWall
Best regards.
