Odd occurrences - views of file change by themselves, additional letters appear on some strikes, other eccentric behaviors. Signs of a collapse of the nascent technology?

My computer has made odd changes - 1) views of file change every time that a file is opened (as for example film strip thumbnails); (2) folderSearch option replaced Open the first action, so I have to right-click to open all folders. Explore is sometimes the fat option for folders. (3) the letter 'f' or 'k' is displayed instead of the actual key letter; or the letter 'f' appears in front of the letter key. (4) the search screen opens whenever the computer is turned on or restarted. (5) a page saved in Word saves only partially. Am I headed for a computer crash?

Regarding the problem with the search engine, try the following article:

'Search Companion starts if you double-click a folder '.

  • How to view pdf files without having to download on firefox for android

    I use a program of electronic medical records using Firefox for android on a Tablet Samsung Galaxy Pro 12.2. I need to view the pdf files of patients on the tablet. So far, the only way I've been able to do this is to download the file first. It would be more effective if I could just view the PDF on the Galaxy Tablet without having to download it. Is it possible to do this with Firefox for android? Thank you.

    Adobe has never made a PDF for Android plugin. Which is what is needed to achieve the desired behavior. I have already cited the only option that comes closest.

    The files are downloaded. Using a plugin browser does not prevent the data being stored locally on your computer.

  • Why can't I save a file changed due to problems with the properties?

    Vista Home Premium 64-bit

    I sent myself a JPG file, taken by a camera in the email.

    I backed up, & then tried to turn it using Windows Photo Gallery.

    He says: 'cannot save this image due to a problem with the properties of the file.'.

    Sometimes (once, so far), it then says 'Changes to the labels, legend, side, or date taken could not be saved in this file.'.

    When I try the same thing in Windows Explorer, it says "you cannot rotate this image.  The file may be used or open in another program or file or folder can be read-onlly. ».

    Properties file shows the file read-only.

    Unchecking that and apply or OK has no effect.

    Ditto for the folder.

    But looking around, I see that (sometimes (?)) other records are also marked read-only, but are not their files.

    When I produce-> properties-> details-> ' properties delete and personal information "->" create a copy with all deleted properties ", he says: 'an error occurred when writing the property 'Altitude' in the file <....>.'.

    I can't find another way to try to remove all the ((maybe) offend them) properties.

    Hello PMH232!

    Thanks for the return of the response.  Below, I have included a few steps to try.  When you fill out these test in Windows Explorer and see if you can rotate the images.

    1. click on the start menu.
    2. click on computer.
    3. right click on the drive that gives you trouble.
    4. Select Properties.
    5. click on the Security tab.
    6. click on the Edit button where it says "to change permissions, click on change."
    7. in the "group or user names", click on the user you want to change.

    8. in the area 'Permissions for the users', click the checkbox to allow full control.
    9. click on ok.

    I have a HP with Windows Vista Premium installed.  I got a CD with a file that has the extension .mdb.   What are my options to open and view this file?    There is a second file on the disk with an extension .ldb.   What kind of file is it?

  • Can not view .wmv files, only to hear the sound

    I have a Vista 64 and shortly after a mandatory update for IE, my ability to view .wmv files has been lost.  I can hear the audio OK.  The problem is this if I use IE or FireFox.  I tried to send these attachments to other emails; It seems that this file of sufficient size is received, but always impossible to view the file.  I went to the sample under Vista with the same result - audio but not video videos. There is no error code in the attachment, or an e-mail message. There are no additions to my software in the last three months, except for updates.

    It comes with Vista, upgrade install and activate Forum.
