• Windows 8 How to revive the desktop and the Start Menu?

  Hello, if you are using Windows 8, sometimes we are asked to open the Task Manager and close some programs for performance reasons. Strangely, programs that have been closed with the X button at the top right are still reported running and need to be stopped manually via Task Manager! During the closure of the "Desktop" program (Yes, it is in the list and it is possible to simply close), how it can be restored? Where doesn't he disappears and with it also the Start Menu? We tried to find via the command run, and we stopped the machine and restarted does not. Now, there is just an o/s hidden without user interface! The machine responds to CTRL + ALT + DELETE to bring up the Task Manager. Thank you.

  You can absolutely close, for sure.  But, apps Store of Windows cannot do the slower computer.  Memory is marked as 'open for use' and can be erased and reused for any new process in the clock cycle (approximately a 1000th of a second), then it poses absolutely no load on the system just let them "running" forever.  Developers sometimes refer to this frozen as "tomb-stoned.  This is the reason for the new model of application development, so that the users do not have to worry about closing or opening an application. They just use the computer and do what they want without a slowdown.  You know, like the iPad :)

• Problem with task bar and appearance of the start menu.

  My account is the only account on my computer of the family that seemed to have lost the look of Windows Vista in the start menu and taskbar, as well as the windows that appear. It seems to resemble an earlier version of windows, but with the arrows and vista available, wait his gray. I went into the control panel to see if I had changed it accidentally, but he says he's still the appearance of vista. What happened since I restarted the computer the other day, and it's really frustrating.

  Try this:

  Restore point:

  Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

• Problem with the start menu of windows 8.

  So my type of computer is Windows PC. My windows 8 Start menu automatically brings me too my "Apps". Then I have to click an arrow button and it brings me to 'start '. I can't find a way to 'lock or PIN' from the menu 'Start '. So, whenever I push the menu button start it brings back me to the "Apps". Is there a way to solve this problem, so that the start menu button will lead me to 'start '?

• Two problems: 1: there is no Mozilla or Firefox folder in the start menu;. 2: when I said 4 FF to return by default, I had all the features of FF 3 instead. I reinstalled the browser, but that has not helped. Advice would be much appreciated.

  Two problems:

  1. when I said Firefox 4 to return to the default toolbar, he returned to v. 3. I reinstalled v. 4, but that did not help.

  2. I tried to open it in safe mode and discovered that there is no Mozilla or Firefox folder in my Start menu.

  I'm the home runnint Windows 7, 64-bit.

  1.
  
  The orange Firefox button appears when the menu bar is hidden. Turn off Bar Menu item in view > toolbars or from the context menu for toolbars.

  2.
  
  You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  
  Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.
  
  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox to open it again.

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1: I suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malware

  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.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  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.

  Important: While running scan on the hard drive if bad sectors are found on the hard drive when scanning try to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost.

  Method 2: If this does not help then you can uninstall and reinstall Windows search 4.0 on the computer.

  Follow the steps below to uninstall:

  a. click on Start

  b. click Control Panel

  c. select Add / Remove Program

  d. place a check on "Show updates"

  e. you will see Windows Desktop Search 4.0 and uninstall it.

  Here's how to get safe mode:

  If you can see the taskbar in safe mode, please do a system restore. Choose a date where you did not have this problem as your restore point.

  Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
  To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.
