My PC is automatically defaulting many attachments that I receive to open in WORD - corrupting files, then makes them unreadable. What should I do?

Hi - I received a folder zipped containing a font that I bought in my Inbox. When I click on OPEN in Windows mail, it automatically attempts to open the attachment in WORD, who then created a catch-22 situation. If I click on SAVE and try to save directly in the folder as an attachment (*. *) when I go there to retrieve it - it is still a WORD doc... so strange.

Either way, this also happens when I use my Googlemail account - this isn't a Windows mail issue - its something to do with the settings on my PC. I use Vista.

Please help this is so frustrating and I can't solve it. Thank you very much

> If I click on SAVE and try to save directly in the folder as an attachment (*. *)

What did you change the Save as type?
Just save the zipped/foldr file in a directory of your choice. Then unzip with your UN - zip program, or double click it.

If the file/folder is a document open in Word. What is the problem with that?

Am I missing something? For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

  • I said that I have to install Chrome to place an order at Walmart. What should the Chrome that Firefox does not work?

    I have placed several orders of Wal-Mart before today using Firefox without any problems. But today, nothing but problems. I tried for more than 4 hours, get this order to cross. I told cat line of Walmart and told me that I have to install Chrome to place an order. They don't answer when I asked if Walmart belonging to Chrome.

    I deleted the cookies and cache and restarted but none of this has worked. While Chrome has that Firefox does not work? I tried Chrome before and he hated and had a devil of a time he get off my computer. I don't want to go there again.

    I have attached a copy of the message that I get seems to indicate that it is a problem within Wal-Mart, but I said that it was with my browser.

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and using Firefox 40.0.3.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Thanks for your reply. I just figured out the problem.

    All started when I tried to pay my order at 13:00 this afternoon. I am persistent and don't give up easily. Five hours later, I found an error in their programming, which allowed me to add an item to my shopping cart that was a purchase in store only. But then when I went to pay for it, he became confused and wouldn't let me order but didn't tell me why.

    I solved by moving all items in the basket to saved for later and then add one at a time, trying to get to the car after each addition. It took a while because there are 20 items. He had the same problem when I added the item in the store to the cart and tried to pay for it. So I deleted and purchased on Ebay.

    Now I know probably as much if not more than any of their populations of the Chat line that can only be read on a book script.

    It's a relief that I don't have to use Chrome. I really like Firefox and would not change.

  • JavaScript in a PDF file that checks the value of a specific field and then make the right calculation.

    Hi guys!

    Sorry for my English is not my mother tongue.

    This is my first time writing here, I just discover the great possibilities of Javascript in PDF files and I'm very excited about it!

    I have no experience with Javascript, that's what I would do:

    Basically, I need to calculate how many litres of gas is needed to do a specific job in agriculture.

    I have a table that looks like this:

    Seed: 120 litres/Km

    Weeding: 20 litres/Km

    Fertilize: 140 litres/Km

    I have 3 fields in the pdf file: OPERATION / KM / NECESSARYGASOLINE

    I need something like this:

    Seed = 120;

    Weed = 20;

    Fertilize = 140;

    IF the OPERATION is 'Seeds' then NECESSARYGASOLINE = 120 * KM;

    OTHERWISE, if the OPERATION is 'Weed' then NECESSARYGASOLINE = 20 * KM;

    OTHERWISE, if the OPERATION is "Fertilizer" then NECESSARYGASOLINE = 140 * KM;

    Is it possible to translate it in Javascript?

    Thank you very much for the help! It would be really wonderful!

    Yes, it is possible. Use the following syntax:

    If (organic == 'Yes' & culture == "Wheat")

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.

    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
