    The normal behavior is to open a blank tab, an add-on will be originally to show Yahoo. An add-on which has net gel assistant, if you have one you can uninstall it and it should go back to the opening of a blank tab.

    Another way to open the home page in a new tab is in the Middle, click the home button in the navigation toolbar.

  • Why my custom control to change the size, when I open it on different computers?

    I create a custom control, and when I open it on other computer it changes size

    Try to:

    -the Boolean text

    -use a specific font for the Boolean text (e.g. Tahoma, but NOT the font system, application, or dialogue)

    -hide text Boolean

    -Save the .ctl

    In my experience, it is the text boxes, an object resize on different systems, the box of dialogue/system/application are different fonts.

  • Why Firefox 31 change all icons PDF and open in browser, require a fix by using REGEDIT to set for all USERS on a computer?

    The solution to use REGEDIT in the question linked below almost fixed my problem with PDF files on more than 30 computers with multiple users on each computer:
    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/1013642

    But I need to fix for all users on a computer without logging on each account on each computer. My challenge was to log on as an administrator and change the following key of the overall system instead:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\.PDF

    Name: by default
    Type: Reg_SZ
    Data: FirefoxHtm

    Changed FirefoxHtm to AcroExch.Document.11 data

    I use Adobe Reader XI on Win7 Pro 64-bit machines.
    The problem started when I ran a file downloaded to install the new version of Firefox on computers.

    Why Firefox would require me to use REGEDIT in this way to solve the problem?

    This only happens when you set Firefox as the default browser and Firefox thinks that there is currently no application PDF file handles.

  • Why do I not change the view when I open a folder?

    I am running Windows 7 on a laptop Gateway/Acer. My main question has different views of files and folders every time I open a new folder. It may appear as a list of small icons, etc. I remember that I could change the settings in the control panel in XP and Vista, and all records have the same point of view. What should I do on Windows 7?

    I'm also a terrible with startup items and know time if they are needed or not. I KNOW I have too much processes running and they use to the top of my RAM. This problem is my computer very slow. Even the elements that I spent in and saw that they have a "manual" startup, still seem start-up by themselves. I KNOW by looking at the processes and services and to put an end to or of them changing from automatic to manual. I don't know what to change (the descriptions make it all seems crucial), more the same manual start!

    Finally, I am confused with there online backup. The icloud, cloud, pc-cloud, etc. I've been a backup on my external hard drive, but it is full. I think I probably have things stored on at least 5 different clouds online, but would also even if I had an accident and had to reformat my hard drive?

    I thank very you much for your time and attention to my many questions. I've saved the top for a while!

    One-way ticket, open a window in the Explorer and set the display as you want. Then in the menu bar click on Options of Tools\Folder, then click on apply to records. This should create all the folders as you want.  Can also go to control Panel\Folder Options\View and do the same thing.

  • Help to change my color scheme for a change when I open a game.

    Hi, so I'm not sure everyone will understand this, as it is difficult to explain. Basically, I went to my control panel and began to remove extra * I didn't, but I'm quiet sure, I accidentally deleted something really, I shouldn't have. After that I tried to play minecraft, and I got a message saying I needed java runtime 1.5.0 entertainment so I went and downloaded, I then opened minecraft again and now it says that the color scheme has been changed to basic windows. I have mods, (nodus) downloaded as minecraft and I deleted the whole folder and re downloaded minecraft, and it worked without mods, although the coloud schema has changed again. but I re downloaded mods and it did not work. That before I deleted things worked just like regular like normal minecraft. Also, I am completely UN able to open my google chrome, nothing comes even to the top, even with a few other programs. I have absolutely no idea what is going, or what I deleted, pleeeease help me.

  • Change the icons for the App

    I know how to change the icons, I've done before on Yosemite. But now, some applications (System preferences, Preview) do not change their icons. I receive the "the operation cannot be completed because you do not have the permission" "message. And I can't change the settings to 'read' because, again, it gives me the "...". you don't have the necessary permissions.

    I tried to repair the disk, changing the words of past, but restoring the computer to the factory settings. And I can't do that because I have nothing to back up my information. I'm fine with leaving the icons as it is, but I would still like to solve the problem, whatever it is.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

  • How to change the icon tdms?

    Hello

    for reasons unknown, some of my tdms files - have different icons when I open the tdms files in Diadem. Some have

    an hourglass icon and only change the icon when I click on the sign '+' of the folder itself.

    Someone knows this problem and how can I solve it automatically so you do not have all hourglass icons more?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Norick_17,

    the hourglass is presented for the case DataFinder not already indexes these files.

    This could be for several reasons:

    • There are a lot of file never indexed in this folder, it takes awhile for DataFinder index-> is when F5 to update the display
      The script for this code is: Navigator.Display.CurrDataFinder.Browser.RefreshAll

    • The indexing process has stopped for a different reason. You can manually trigger the re-indexing n MyDataFinder or DataFinder Manager by right clicking on the folder and choose "Index file"
      The script for this code is: Navigator.Display.CurrDataFinder.GetDataFinder.Indexer.IndexFolder
