System restore steps according to the info above.

Also:

2. click on start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

    I had this problem, but after installing IE8 on Windows Vista.  I was unable to make Windows Explorer open folders in the same window, even if this option in 'Options folders'.

    The response marked here seems to have given back me the feature, but unfortunately it seems that I can not open files in their own windows separated (when this option is selected). Well.

  • When I try to open a file in the same window instead it opens in another window

    original title: the behavior of the windows

    so my office is weird, as if you try to open a file in the same window instead it open in another window, etc. and the parameters are not to do, and I can not copy, paste, or drag-and - unless u open the file that you are trying to paste in... I mean that it shows that u copied or cut the file but it does not allow you to the paste it where you want it to... help?

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/813711

    I found the solution to a lot of the post regarding the behavior of the window as in not displaying thumbnails do not, or only display as icons. u could not drag-and - drop a file in a folder, the only way possible to copy and paste in the opened folder u he wanted.   When in an open folder u wanted to open another folder in the same window, that he would open the clicked folder u on in another window... Yes I think the setting may have changed with the installation of another program or uninstall. Ive search searched n not thanks to technicians to norton and Microsoft to answer the caz forums of course they know not what theyre doing... but in any case, I saw in another question, someone asked on thumbnails disappear n someone sent them the link to a microsoft support page click on the fix it , and it fixes everything that was to play place configurations... I'm really tired of people who say "oh come on in your folder options and check the personalization", how much this race was frustrating... Well hope it works... for future people and those that have not been answered... and im running vista...

  • How to open PDF documents in the same window?

    Prof. Acrobat X / Windows:

    How to manage open PDF documents in the same window?

    When I open more than a single PDF docs and a second, third,... window opens, each document is opened in a separate window.

    In previous versions (Acrobat 8 Prof.), all the documents were opened in the same window.

    This is especially useful, because the windows are not spread over the entire desktop, and with ALT + TAB I can change between the documents, if I don't have that one window.

    Thanks for any help.

  • How to open development tools in the same window rather than in a separate window?

    At the beginning, the development tools used to open the bottom of the browser window when I press Ctrl + Shift + I. But then one day I opened it in a new window by clicking on the button in the upper right. Since then, the tools of the developer always open in a new window. I want them to open in the same window down as before. But I am unable to do so.

    Hello, click the anchor at the bottom of the browser window in the top right of the window or otherwise enter Subject: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears), search for the preference named devtools.toolbox.host & right click and restore the default value for that entry.

  • How to open search results in the same window in Firefox always done before the last update 22

    Before the last update, on that I would do a search let say Google and when I found what I wanted and clicked on, that the window would turn to the result in this window, now it opens a new window. Another question is I noticed when I have gmail open in a window and open another window that result is displayed, and then switches to the original which was open, modified window and the new window is reduced in the bottom taskbar, and I come back to open it again. Whether measures should be taken, please list them.

    Hi years.1, Flash is used by many sites to play videos and audio. It is also used by some sites for menu or the overall presentation systems. Some sites also use Flash to downloaders of files.

    Firefox in general will let you know if a site needs a plugin to display all of the content, but you may also see a message on the site. These messages are not always specific to Flash, but can sometimes say that JavaScript is disabled or else referring to the problem.

  • How can I change the folder under Folders options browse to open each folder in its own window?

    No matter how many times I select "Open each folder in the same window", the files still open in a separate window. So I then several windows open in order to view the other subfolders. Also when I select "File Types" tab and I see that the extension of the file types: (folder) and (folder), they both show (none), which I guess is OK.  So when I click on the "Advanced" tab area 'Actions' watch [find] and [open] with Open being the DEFAULT action. But for Edit or delete buttons are greyed out! So anything that can be changed is the default action is open or find it.

    I just want to be able to open and view the folders in the same window! Do you think I have to reinstall XP Home Edition, running around SP3?

  • Open the page in the browser in the same window?

    I remember there are a few versions I could hit f12 and it open my page in the same window--instead of creating a new window each time.

    Now, I'll have 20 open windows of the browser in a few minutes.

    Is it possible to get this feature working again?

    Thank you

    As far as I KNOW, F12 has always open a new browser window - at least it did for me in Firefox.  Why not save your work and just refresh your browser with F5?

  • V29 Firefox to open links in the same window

    Since the installation of version 29, I found only two apparently related questions:

    (1) I find that links open in the same window as the source, instead of a new window.

    For example, I get a notification of a newsletter every day in my Yahoo email account. Before v29, when I clicked on the link in the email to go to the newsletter, it would open in a NEW window (my preference).

    With version 29, it opens in the SAME window (and replaces the window where I had Yahoo mail open).

    (2) in the same way, I do a lot of work where the links will appear in an Excel worksheet. Previously, whenever I clicked on one, it will open a new window. If I clicked on 6, I have 6 windows open. Now, every link I click REPLACES the last one that I opened.

    These two problems are very annoying and slow me down.

    Is there a setting where I can change this behavior?

    I found that after Firefox v29, a LOT of my settings and

    Add - ons have been changed / reset. Try this;
    Launch Firefox in Mode safe

    While you are in safe mode;

    Firefox Options > advanced > General.

    Find and stop using hardware acceleration.

    Then check ALL your settings. Browser and Add-ons. Then restart.
