• Presentation settings is missing from the Windows Mobility Center

  Satellite L 300 with Vista Home Basic

  Recently installed everything, but have run windows update etc. Since then.

  Presentation settings does not appear in the Windows Mobility Center, and I can not find presentationsettings.exe anywhere on the computer.

  Have tried downloading VAP but no difference. Toshiba Assist has nothing to help me, I think.

  I tried looking for drivers and utilities for the L300 and sees nothing to help me - no presentation or power related only downloads.

  How can I get the presentation settings? The main problem I have is not to want the screen empties when you watch a DVD or streaming video. Even if you put windows power settings to never turn off the screen, it will still blank after a period of time without the intervention of the physical user, despite the video game.

  AFAIK this option is always available when the laptop is preinstalled with Toshiba (factory State) recovery image.
  You install own OS or what?

  I have two Toshiba laptops, and both of them have this option in the Windows Mobility Center.

• Startup error message: "Microsoft Mobile PC presentation adaptability Client has stopped working".

  I recently tried to install SP2 to Vista, but it failed. I tried all the resolutions posted, but it is not always correct it. Later, I started my Vista (automatically restored to SP1) and it came with a mistake, "Microsoft Mobile PC presentation adaptability Client has stopped working". I tried searching on the net for similar problems, but I could not find any solution. He comes back every time you start, after that the background, shortcuts and the system tray loaded. This error started showing when I tried to install SP2, but he failed and returned to changes. I think that something could have gone wrong and that's why it shows this message.   Today I tried the system restore to the restore point JUST before I tried to install SP2, but it ALSO failed and brought me back to the State.
  I'm not sure if it's related, but I'm also no longer be able to use Windows Media Center, as every time I start it I immediately receive the error message "Media Center has stopped working".

If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.
   
  e. click OK, and then click restart.
   
  Once the computer restarts, check if you get the error of starting.

• presentation settings pop-up automatically - disapper of the icons on the desktop!

  I'm having a problem with the icons on the desktop.  Whenever I start my computer, or disconnect or plug when turned on, the desktop icons disappear, and the program of 'presentation settings' will appear.  The desktop icons disappear.  I right click on the desktop, select display and the "show desktop icons" is selected.  I deselect, then right click, display, show the desktop icons to show.  It becomes really annoying!  I do every time I turn on the computer, unplug the unit while it is on or plug it in.  Each time, the 'presentation settings' lights.  When I use the "Mobility Center" to turn off presentation settings, he points out that they are turned off and does not respond when I try to 'works '.  I have the presentation settings icon right click and stop the presentation.

  How can I make this frustrating problem annoyingly go away?

  Thank you Mick but you have totally misunderstood the nature of my problem.  I understand how to transform a computer market properly.

  My point was that, once the computer is turned on, the presentation settings pop-up and the desktop icons disappear.  In order to get them to show, I have to then do a right-click on the desktop, select view - the "show desktop icons" is selected, but the icons are not - so I have to deselect "show desktop icons"; so, I have to repeat the whole process, this time by selecting "Show desktop icons" until the icons will be displayed.  IF I unplug the computer while it is on, the presentation automatically pop settings - up, the desktop icons disappear and I have to repeat the process.  IF the computer is already unplugged and turned on, and I plug it in, presentation pop up settings and the desktop icons disappear, and I have to repeat the process.  He became EXTREMELY frustrating - it's why I screamed for help...

  Anyway, I solved the problem I hope - for some reason any my power settings swiched to profile 'Quiet Office'; When I switched it to the profile "Entertainment", the problem seems to have resolved itself!

• my wifi doesn't connect not - says disconnected by the mobility center - but no tile reconnection

  Compaq presario cq57 windows 7

  Wi - fi connection, error message stop said was disconnected by the mobility Center, but there is no tile

  to reconnect as it is on my other laptop. drivers update I tried, but they said ok to update and functional

  grateful for any input

  Thanks for the reply kathles.
  
  If the wi - fi button is blue, which means that it is enabled, it can be excluded that the issue.  I do not see a physical switch on this laptop be so that is also excluded.

  Then I would like you try to remove the device from Device Manager driver.  Then restart the laptop without having to reinstall and see if Windows detects new hardware and invites you to reinstall the driver.  Doing it this way should erase all settings disable the device and force it to reset itself.

  Let me know what the result please!

• Mobility Center button has stopped working

  Hello. The settings (windows Mobility Center) Dell Inspiron 17R button stopped working after the upgrade of Windows 8 to 8.1. The light goes on then off and nothing happens. The other two buttons are OK. A15 BIOS. Tried to reinstall QuickSet several times and several versions. The problem with that special touch seems to be fairly widespread. It is strange that Dell did not properly address it yet. Any answer will appreciated.

  A17 BIOS solve the problem. Thanks for the solution!

• Windows Mobility Center icons have disappeared.

  I got my laptop on Christmas day, the Dell Inspiron 15R IS, and to activate the Bluetooth and other options I could press a button with gear wheels above the keyboard that shows the windows Mobility Center. This allowed me to activate and deactivate Bluetooth easily and it worked for about 4 days. However after half of options (which were on the bottom of the window) have now disappeared, so the toggle Bluetooth has disappeared, as well as other Dell options such as the rocker "Express support". I don't know if I changed some settings or how do I return these rockers?

  Henry.

  Henry,

  Go to the drivers & downloads , enter your service tag, and then select your operating system. Under applications, download and install Dell QuickSet and see if applications reappear.

  If it's Windows 7...

  Start, Control Panel, Manager of devices.

  You see exclaimination yellow or red x marks

  If it's Windows 8...

  Press the Windows key and the keys x at the same time, Device Manager

  You see exclaimination yellow or red x marks

• Windows 7 Mobility Center cannot turn wireless on. This typing of same good wireless network on another laptop.

  I see is no longer the wireless network off the laptop.
  Wireless network is good because I use another laptop with good signal just next door.
  Looking at the display of windows Mobility Center, I can see the wireless network window that says wireless off but the turn wireless on button is grayed out so I can't click on it. I suspect the driver needs to be recharged, but don't know where to find. Any help?

  Thanks for your reply. I couldn't find a physical switch anywhere so I uninstalled/reinstalled the driver RF by the troubleshooting Web site emachines. Everything is good...
