  I can only speak of sketch but it starts with a 'Open Document' dialog box so you can choose which files you want to open or you can click on the 'New Document' button. It does not open a Finder window. You will need to talk to the developers of sketches, if it bothers you.

• When you use firefox, a new firefox window opened and blocked to continue using firefox unless I have a fine. I can't delete the page or even let him. Any help?

  The new window is "http://block.policehunt.org/?id=d04201572567089f9b464bbb1b065531". It is said in very rough English that they recorded me have access to child pornography and in order to unlock my browser, I have to pay $300 through some point of payment. When I try to close the window, a pop-up asks you, "do you want to leave this page? IF you click Yes, it flashes and repeats the same pop-up over and over.

  The English used in the message indicates it is clearly a fraud... it seems that maybe a virus, even if I have an internet virus scanner.

  Any suggestions how to "selectively" delete this 'blocking' window without having to reset firefox entirely?

  Go ahead and force close Firefox by using the Task Manager.

  CTRL + Shift + Esc > process tab > select firefox.exe > 'End process' button

  Then open the currently active settings Firefox folder by using the search box of the start menu to open this short address:

  %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
  

  If you see more than one folder, click on in the most recent. If there is only a single folder, click on in this.

  Search for files beginning with sessionstore. Generally, you will find sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak. If Windows hides file extensions, you can view according to the method described in this article to support: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219.

  Rename sessionstore.js to something like sessionstore_bad.js file, so that Firefox does not restore this last series of windows and tabs automatically.

  Leave this window open, and then restart Firefox.

  If you want to reopen some of the pages of the last session, you can use the tips in the following threads for 'mine' the sessionstore_bad.js file to extract the URL:

  • Using the Console of Firefox browser (formerly Console error): https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/969046#answer-471950

  Success?

• How to open bookmarks in a new tab without opening the whole folder in new tabs?

  I'm used to be able to open a single bookmark in a new tab. Now I can open only all of a folder of bookmarks in tabs with "open all in tabs". The option to open only favorite in a new tab or window is grayed out.

  The only way I can understand to open a bookmark without leaving the page that I should find a link to open in a new tab or open a blank tab that is many more steps.
  How can I fix the 'novelty' to make it work?

  You can middle click or hold CTRL and left click a bookmark (and other links) to open the bookmark in a new tab.

  Weird and boring...   Any suggestions?

  Thank you

• Sometimes when I click on a tab, instead of simply switch to this tab, a new Firefox window opens, which can be very annoying. How can I stop this?

  I have several tabs open. I want to look at one of them and I click on it. Instead of simply switch to this tab, Firefox opens a new window. Very annoying! Why does do this and, more importantly, how to make it stop?

  I use Firefox on Ubuntu LTS 14.04 36.0.1.

  The current versions of Firefox have a feature called tabs.
  You can detach a tab in the current window and open in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.
  You can also do this via the context menu of a tab: switch to the new window
  You can drag the tab to the tab bar in the original window to cancel this detachment.

• Windows open randomly on my Vista computer.

  Why the new randemly windows open on my computer and how do I make sure they? Some of the windows open a site of videobasher and starts playing video on their own.

  Hello

  1. don't you make changes to the computer until the problem occurred?

  2. what web browser do you use?

  I suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps.

  Method 1: Try to put your computer in a clean boot state, and check to see if the same problem happens.

  By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

  Method 2: Also I recommend you to scan your hard disk from the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Method 3: Try the steps from the link below, which would allow us to delete temporary Internet files

• Finder windows does not display the content

  I have a Pre MacBrook, retina, 13-inch, early 2013 with a 2.6 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB memory, OS x 10.9.5. Today, my Finder became unstable. When I open a Finder window, it is empty and sometimes even shows the desktop or parts of the application 'through' underlying window. When I force-quit Finder and recovery, the first time I open a Finder window opens normally, but after a time freezes. Opening of windows within the application file works normally, so I can access my files in this way, but it is very annoying. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem? You can provide any help will be greatly appreciated.

  Boot without failure and then stop and start normally seems to have solved the problem (I'm crossing my fingers as I type).
