  • Not all programs are displayed on the taskbar at the bottom, they use to?

    For some reason any I no longer get open programs along the bottom of the desktop on the taskbar.  I use to get them all so I could pick each individually.  When I need to get to one that is open I have to close all those that have been opened after that I want to use.  I use to be able to open 4 or 5 programs so I could monitor the need, but is that actually a lot more work having close and then go back.

    Hi skier Craig,.

    1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
    2. When was the last time it was working fine?
    3. You have security software installed on the computer?

    Method 1

    Check if the problem persists in safe mode and post back with the results.

    A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222

    Method 2

    If the problem does not persist in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

    Reset the computer to start as usual

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    1. Click Start , and then click run.
    2. Type msconfig , and then click OK.
      The System Configuration utility dialog box appears.
    3. Click the general tab, click Normal Startup - load all device drivers and services , and then click OK.

    When you are prompted, click restart to restart the computer.

    Method 3

    If the steps above fail, then I suggest that you scan and remove any malware or computer virus infections and check if it helps.

    Original title: freezing of funds

    Hello Manu,

    Thanks for the guidelines to help me solve my problem. Just to tell you that no, I have no error messages when I tried to access the office programs and Yes, I made a few changes in the pc... in the registry with Glary Utilities. That was my main concern.

    However, I tried the AUDITOR of FILE SYSTEM (CFS) and it fixed some problems.

    I also watched method 2 and did a performance using MICROSOFT FIX patch and ran that the Microsoft SECURITY SCANNER both have not reported any problems.

    Also tried method 1, no problem in safe MODE. I didn't think it was a third party program... so I decided to do a restore to an earlier date... then the problem seems to have disappeared.

    Start the pc also seems to be much faster.

    Thanks for the suggestions... I'll keep them as reference just in case...

    As I suggested previously, conversion to a format like

    The free Converter from Microsoft can be a place to start:

    Look for the file/s that you want to convert.
    (If files do not appear... open the fall
    window and choose... All files)

    Click (highlight) left the files and the left on the Open button.

    You can see the files in the "Multimedia content" pane

    In the right column... left click on the tab "Output"...

    Open the drop directory window and choose an output folder.
    (This is where you will find your converted file)

    On the left, click on the button "encode".

    Wait... video encoding CPU intensive and can
    be a slow process. It is always best if you do not have
    multi-task while files are encoded.

    Now... try import you again. File WMV in Movie Maker.

    More converters:

    There are to many converters available on the net...
    the following links are some examples. You can
    need to experiment to find the best result.

  • The bottom of my windows are obscured by the taskbar when you maximize their

    I have windows 7 and recently, the taskbar has begun to obscure the bottom of my windows, for example, when an excel document is opened and maximized, you can't access the different worksheets because they are hidden behind the taskbar.  I don't know happened.  I tried to solve this problem with auto-hide task bar settings, but found this very annoying that this means that I do not see my taskbar or it keeps popping up or endangered, which is annoying.  I don't want to restore my computer earlier if possible.  Y at - it a simple explanation of the non-geek I can follow easilly on how to solve this problem, because I find it so boring.  Thank you

    Thanks to all who responded, solve the problem himself after that I stopped my lap top and restarted again.  The reason that I had which was earlier that it will turn off no matter how many times I tried to stop.  So I finally just kept my finger on the power switch until it finally stopped and now I don't have a problem with windows optimize behind the taskbar.  Very happy.

    Sort the list of open windows in descending order when windows are combined in the taskbar

    I like to combine windows in order to access all my programs in the taskbar. I have tons of open Outlook messages that I need to respond to the last open order to open older. The problem is that the list of the oldest opened open again, and I have to constantly scroll to the bottom of this list to access the most recent message. Is there a way view the list by e-mail open newest to oldest?

    It would be a time saving of huge productivity for me, and I saw that many of my colleagues would benefit as well.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Sorry there is no function like that.

    You can consider using Outlook flags instead.  Arrival of emails, you will need to respond to, click the red flag on them.  They will appear in your Outlook ' to do' list so you can keep track of those you will have to answer to and check the power off when you are finished.

    Note

    If SFC could not fix something, then run the new command to see if it can be able to next time. Sometimes, it can take by running the sfc/scannow command 3 times restart the PC after each time completely fix everything what he is capable of.

    If this isn't the case, then run Dism/online/Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth to repair any corruption component store, restart the PC later and try the sfc/scannow command.

    If still no, then try using ONE OPTION above to run the command sfc/scannow at the start

    If still no, then you could do a Refresh of Windows 8, or run a System Restore using a restore point dated before the wrong file occurred to fix. You may need to repeat doing a restore of the system until you find a restore point that is older that may work.

    If not yet, then you can use the steps in the TIP box in the section THREE OPTION to manually replace the files SFC could not fix.

    Refresh your PC goes like this:

    • The PC starts in Windows RE (Recovery Eenvironment).
    • Windows RE scans the hard drive for your data, settings, and applications and puts them aside (on the same drive).
    • Windows RE installs a new copy of Windows.
    • Windows RE restores the data, settings, and applications, which it set aside in the newly installed copy of Windows.
    • The PC reboots into the newly installed copy of Windows.

    "When you reboot your PC, the drive will be completely reset and all your applications and your files will be removed it." Windows 8 will be reinstalled, and you need to change any settings, and then reinstall all the apps you want to come back after the reset. If you know if all the files you don't want to lose, then you must back up these files before you start resetting.

    I just installed DW 13.2.  Linked files (all CSS, scripts...) "are not on the local disk" - all works in CS6. Help...

    When I insert one of the page of the Web site, it shows in the design window.  But when I try to bring any document linked in the left window, code, it is empty and the message says: "whatever.css is not on the local drive.  Also, when I click on LIVE, the file looks like she does not see the file CSS, no images.

    The same site looks and works OK in the DW CS6.

    I'm on Maverick - 2012 Mac Pro - 2 x 2.66 12-core, 64 GB of RAM.

    I configured the same way as CS6 preferences.  Same location of the site, same links.

    Am I missing something?  What should I do?  I uninstalled the DW CC, cleaned pref and installed it again.  Same question.

    Help, please.

    I think, I solved the problem, but I still think that the Dreamweaver does not recognize the addresses.

    I then drive CC_A BB_A Web sites (these are the actual names of the readers).  It's always the disk 'data', apart from the OS, but with a different name.  everything works.  Opening files referred to in the script window, 'live' works as supposed.

    I can only speculate that readers 'CC_A' name has confused the program called CC.

    I can find no other explanation, since, in addition to the name of the drive - everything else is the same.
