Office Assistant

I know that the Desktop Cleanup Wizard was available on XP.  Is there a similar function for Vista which will help me to clean the portion/not used recently the icons on my desktop?

Hi Giannat77,

The Office Assistant who cleaned the unused icons has been removed from Windows Vista, I'm afraid.

    When I go into my office assist, I click on all programs and it comes up saying that tosdesktop Assist stopped working. What I'm doing and how I can fix this problem?

    According to the Desktop site help, it is not compatible with Windows 8.  You might be able to fix this by right clicking on the Desktop icon help, choose Properties, then using the tab compatibility to do work.  If this does not help, your next best bet is to contact them and let them know.  Maybe they have (or are working on) a new version that works with Windows 8.

  • Is there a way to get the old Office mate (Clippy) in Windows 7?

    I hate to be "Clippy" (or is this Clippie?) of XP and I would like to know if there is a way to get the old Office Assistant in Win7.

    They were actually disabled in 2001 with the implementation of 'Microsoft Office XP' and completely deleted for good at the end 2002 with the release of Microsoft Office 2003.

    You can restore to 2003 with some changes to the system registry and the replacement of prudent file, but it is not supported.  And this can be done at all in Office 2007 with impatience.

    Office Assistant characters debuted with Office 97, but have been removed in Office XP in 2002.  They were not included on all successive versions of office since then (Office 2003, 2007, 2010), and there is no way to include them.

  • Qosmio X 870 - 13p - how to restore the original key elements?

    Use the volume buttons + /-on the keyboard, I just had to push for example to increase the volume of your PC or put a song on a break. Now it does not work, I have to press the "Fn key" to use these keys.

    If anyone has an idea how to restore the original key elements?

    There are two options for the mode of function keys:
    -special function mode (you don't need to press the FN key n)
    -standard mode of F1 - F12

    Please check which option is set to your laptop.
    You can find it when you open the office assist > system settings > keyboard.

    Check and if necessary change the special function mode.
