Notepad opens in Code in Vista Home premium

Notepad opens in the code, how can I set it to itsdefault? or where can I find download Notepad

Hello

You must open a binary file when you open Notepad.

Right-click on the icon Notepad - Properties - Shortcut tab - line target - what's after the
Notepad.exe?

Mine looks like this

%SystemRoot%\system32\notepad.exe

If there's anything after NotePad.exe, then it will open the default file just so delete.

You might also have a binary file associated with Notepad (wrongly) so when you click on that
It opens in Notepad file. The difficulty which unassociate this type of file (extension after the file name.

  • Commercial error Code 0x8007045D Vista Home Premium Version complete

    Good afternoon... I been up all night trying to find answers to fundamentally
    error codes 2 I receive when you try to install Windows Vista Home Premium full retail
    version, 64-bit and 32-bit. 0x8007045D error code and error Code 0 x 80070003, the first
    0x8007045D code receives most often, and during the phase of installing 'multiply '.
    Files... he expanded on anywhere from 00 to about 50%, taking as long as 45 minutes.
    When the error 0x8007045D code appears. The other code came during other phases of the
    installation, but less often.
    Now, there was a lot of "answers" on the forums online to the same question as above, plus all the
    of them I've read has dealt with Vista and, like me, do a clean-install not one upgrade. Answers
    varied bad hard drive and dvd drive not working not not for RAM (one person said a few years back to)
    not 4 GB of memory, but less than 2). Others have said that the write speed of the
    DVD player was set down too quickly, that... but mine is a full commercial version.  And I have
    Microsoft contacted by chat and phone and the product key is valid.
    Remember, this is for Windows Vista Home Premium not Windows 7 Home Premium.
    I went back to Windows 7 HP, if I can do some research on these error codes. In a few weeks
    I have a new pc built for my Windows 7, but this 'old' pc that I use now is what HP Vista
    will be used, if I can ever get it installed. The SPECIFICATIONS below are for this desktop computer
    PC that I'm tempted to get Vista installed on HP. I'll Tinker (change) with parts
    (hard drive, RAM and DVD drive), but none are too drastic.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    (Windows Vista Home Premium) 800b0100 error code when you try to install the two (KB978338) and (KB968389)

    I tried all the recommended solutions that Windows can throw at me, and yet I still can't download these updates for some reason any. Whenever I run the program "Microsoft Fixit" he says it's a mistake and fixing it with success, but I still get the same error when you try to install the updates. I have checked for malware, scanning my computer everything and see nothing.

    Hello

    1. what troubleshooting steps are carried out to solve the problem?

    2 were there any hardware or software changes made on the computer before this problem?

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to return the item and check if it helps:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-800B0100

    Method 3:

    I suggest to put the computer in a clean boot state and then try to open the program and check if it helps.

    Note When you perform a clean boot, you may temporarily lose some functionality. When you start the computer as usual, the function returns. However, you may receive the error message, or you can experience the original behavior.

    Problem - when I try to update Windows Update (manual and automatic) I get the error code 80070490
    I tried - system restore, download and pay for 'RegCure' and following the instructions on the Microsoft forum without success.
    The computer was shipped with a recovery disc that has no installation to 'fix '.

    Thank you

    There is an article on this issue in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3ben-us%3B958044&x=10&y=4

    So I think that you need to reinstall the computer with the recovery disc.
    Boot from the diskette or press F8 at startup, choose "repair your computer".
    and follow the instructions in the menu.
    Then the HARD drive will be formatted so back up your data.

    Hi Colonel biggs,

    Welcome to the Forums Microsoft Vista

    This problem may occur if one of the following conditions is true:

    · A program on your computer interfered with the installation of the service pack.

    · There is an inconsistency in the store of Windows services. The store Windows maintenance is a required component to install service packs.

    To resolve this problem, try each resolution in the 'General resolution"and the"Advanced Troubleshooting"section in the order in which they are presented. After trying a resolution, try to install the service pack again. If you can't always install the service pack, try the next resolution.

    Resolution 1: Install the stand-alone package for the service pack instead of using Windows Update to install the Service Pack

    Note If you have already tried to install the stand-alone package for the service pack and you have encountered this problem, skip this resolution and go to resolution 2.

    If you don't know if you've tried to install the stand-alone package for the service pack, it is recommended that you try the following steps to install the stand-alone package for the service pack. By using the stand-alone package to install the service pack, you eliminate installation issues that may be related to Windows Update. This simplifies the troubleshooting process

    Solution 2: Run the system update readiness tool

    System Update tool checks your computer and trying to resolve certain conditions that can interfere with the installation of the updates or other software. However, before you download the tool, you must determine whether your computer is running a 32-bit version or a 64 bit version of the Windows Vista operating system. If your computer is Windows Vista installed, and you know which version you are using, go to the section "how to download the system update readiness tool. If you are unsure which version your computer has installed, follow these steps:

    1. click on Start

    2. collapse this includes it in the Search box, type System, and then click System in the programs list.

    The operating system is displayed as follows:

    · For a 32 - bit version operating system, 32-bit operating system appears for the system type under System.

    · For a 64 - bit version operating system, 64-bit operating system appears for the system type under System.

    After you determine which version of Windows Vista, your computer is running, download system update readiness tool.

    Resolution 3: Close or disable any applications that may be running, restart the computer and then install the service pack

    1. Close all applications and restart your computer.
    2. Once your computer has restarted, disable any antivirus or any antispyware application that can load during the startup process. You can normally disable the notification area application. This area is located in the bottom right corner of the computer screen. To disable an application in the notification area, follow these steps:
      1. Right-click the icon of the third-party program.
      2. Click Close, disable, outputor an equivalent term in the list of options. If these options are not available, you may open the application and then close or disable in the application.
    1. As soon as you close the antivirus or the antispyware software, try to install the download package full of the service pack that you previously downloaded from the following Microsoft Download Center Web site:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads)

    1. After completing the installation of the service pack, enable the antivirus or the antispyware software that you disabled in the previous steps.
