My office only displayed Widget Acer and Windows Live Messenger

Original title: desktop display problem

My desktop only Acer Widget & Windows Live Messenger, although my desktop folder contains everything that needs to be rendered outside the basket. There is no problem with the other user account on this computer. How can I fix this problem?

You have already found the problem, perhaps unknowingly.

quote... There is no problem with the other user account on this computer

It is a strong indication that your user account is damaged.

If it is an administrator account that you are having problems with, please set up another admin first.

Make sure that the new admin account works smoothly without the display problem.

Then decide if you keep some of the files for the damaged account.

If you don't care to keep everything, then simply remove the damaged account.

If you don't want certain files etc kept, then use this tutorial...

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-CA/Windows-Vista/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile

Note in the tutorial of... To copy files to the new user profile

After creating the profile, you can copy the files from the existing profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you just created.

  • Windows Live Messenger - new email notification

    I am running Windows 7 ultimate and Windows Live Messenger Version 2009 (Build 14.0.8117.416)
    When I get a new message appears a window on this subject and the counter is updated to 1 new email. When I read that e-mail, the counter is erased, but when I right click WLM in my taskbar, I see even 1 new message). The only way to get rid of it is by closing WLM and it starts again, but whenever a new email arrives, the story starts again. Any help on this would be appreciated.

  • Windows live messenger stops working after a while

    Whenever I connect Windows live I get a message that this communication platform on-line Windows has stopped working and windows will close the program and I am started mid convo quickly. I do not know why this happens, I just reformat my computer and had to reinstall windows and have this problem since. I even tried to uninstall and reinstall new but no luck. Help, please!

    Hello AshNight,

    You should post in the Windows Live help as Mick has suggested. They will come back with help.

    However, in the meantime, you can do a repair on your own.
    Have you installed programs before this problem started? This may include antivirus, e-mail programs, etc.
    I've seen some posts where some products Antivirus and cause of conflict. So as a troubleshooting step, remove your antivirus (not just disable) and see if there is a conflict with your AntiVirus and Windows Live messenger. (Do not forget and don't go out when you do not have an antivirus installed on intenet).

    If that doesn't help, then do a clean boot and see if there is a conflict. You disable all startup items and services of third parties at boot. This method will help us determine if this issue is caused by a loader program or service.

  • My Windows Live Messenger display messenge name and staff are automatic update!

    My Windows Live Messenger display name and staff messenge are automatic updated to a foreign link and url. When I login, I always see someone connect from somewhere else. And even I'm out somewhere else, change my password, he'll be back in 5 minutes. And my nickname and messange screw. It seems more that just the login/password has been stolen. It seems to happen after I click on a link of the email from my friend. That's happened?

  • XP SP3, and Windows Live Mail, when I receive a file .htm as an attachment to an e-mail, it's a file 'blocked '. How can I prevent this from happening.

    Win XP SP3 and Windows Live Mail. I get emails from my office surveillance video. The e-mail has an attachment '.htm '. When I double click the file .htm in the email, it starts Internet Explorer 8 and must upload a short video clip and display it. The fly in the soup seems to be the fact that the .htm file is "locked".

    He can be unlocked by saving it to disk and using Windows Explorer to display its properties, and then click the button "Unblock" - but it's just a "work around".

    From what I read on Microsoft sites, the .htm files are not considered to be dangerous - or are? So why are they blocked? And how do I prevent it?

    I listen carefully!

    Thank you very much Halima, maybe you helped me to focus, in any case I eventually find a switch in Windows Live Mail, which was causing my pain.

    In Windows Live Mail, go to TOOLS-online the SECURITY OPTIONS-online SECURITY => and UNCHECK the line "do not allow opening or saving attachments that could contain a virus.

    Problem solved - thank you for your time and effort.

    Where should I contact regarding the functions of newsgroups in Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail?

    I seem to have problems with Windows Mail, perhaps caused by the update KB978542 and/or run the program WMUtil.

    One of my Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 64-bit machines, whenever I try to start Windows Mail, it displays 0x800C0155 error message, then a message saying that he was unable to start because MSOE. DLL could not be initialized.

    The other has problems of material type instead: it's a laptop with no mouse and no reliable connection to the internet.

    On my Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 32-bit machine, I can start Windows Mail, but most local issues have disappeared - only the Inbox is visible.  I already checked that subdirectories for the other files are still present.

    All three of these machines have had problems of backups for months and have had no successful backup for the last two months.

    I have trouble finding enough information about Windows Live Mail without having to install this program if it could avoid these problems or just make it worse.

  • What is the difference between Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail?

    Separated from this thread.

    I realize that starting from 7/11, Windows Live is more effective on my Windows Vista system.  I understand that and I have since beengetting my Hotmail acc't workingusing only Windows Live Mail.  This am, I tried to create a new account hotmail for my friend, but we couldn't get it to accept and just stopped trying.  Now, today, I can not send any e-mail because "you cannot configure Windows Mail to use a web (HTTP) that is running Windows Vista based."  WHA?  I managed somehow to get into Windows Live when I tried to get a new account hotmail for my friend?  Also, I also receive a message from the Assistant on "you want to want to leave, you have not created your new account?  (probably not the exact wording).  In response, I clicked Yes and no, and still I can't get out of this Windows Live.  I would like to purge my system of this needless to Windows Live and only use Windows Live Mail.  Can someone help me to do this?  (My knowledge of couputer is at a basic level, so hopefully it won't be too difficult to understand.)  Thank you!!!

    (With the HTTP mess), it seems Windows Mail and Windows LIVE Mail are two very different things.

    I am not a technician, but try to stay up-to-date. I have known that Vista sucks because it came out, but it surprised me, never have used before today. So I wonder...  Windows LIVE Mail can be installed on a Vista unit, and if so he would remove the format HTTP bug? It's all THE Microsoft, after all! On my PC with Windows 7 HP with complete Essentials, including Live Mail (for PC, to avoid confusion with the version online), I have not had any problems to Hotmail at work, send or receive. GMail also, no problem, the only thing I did NOT like about Live Mail is that it doesn't have the handy function "Sweep" that I love, I just go online to own things very quickly. With only Windows Mail (which I assume is supplied with Vista), it won't let me even try to set-up Hotmail/Outlook account. It's stupid, because like I said it's all EM!

    peace ~

    Windows Mail is the e-mail that comes with client program and a part of Windows Vista. Windows Live Mail is a program available for free download; It is an e-mail client, the timing, the Manager contacts, aggregator and newsreader at a single feeding program.

    Until a few years ago, it was possible to synchronize the Hotmail accounts with e-mail clients on Windows XP and Vista (Outlook Express and Windows Mail respectively) using WebDAV over HTTP protocol. This method has been deprecated after a long sequence of initialization in September 2009. Before that date, POP3 access has been made available for all Hotmail accounts. At any time it was not possible to access Hotmail email clients accounts. There is no bug involved here, nor in HTTP format or anything else.

    Windows Live Mail is built to use a different former WebDAV protocol; DeltaSync protocol allows the synchronization of e-mail folders, contacts, and calendars between client and server.

    You may be able to download the installer for Windows Live Mail 2011 of this page: How to install Windows Essentials while offline? Do not try to include Windows Live Writer or Messenger in the installation; None of them will work and you can gum up toward the top of the entire installation Essentials if you do. It may be better to stick to one mail at first. Windows Live Mail 2011 is the latest version which runs on Vista.
