Question: How to avoid the pop-up "Welcome to the Windows Live (tm) Device Manager download"?

I also use many Office Communicator 2007 and Live Messenger and Live Photo Gallery. My PC (Win XP SP2) office also has a LX-3000 headset and a webcam VX-6000, both are for use with Office Communicator.
Since a recent update, whenever I connect a device, a "Welcome to the Windows Live (tm) Device Manager download" window asking me to download Windows Live Device Manager.
However, on this desktop PC, I don't want that to be installed. Also, since the shape a previous download, I learned that this device manager does not recognize Office Communicator; It assumes that Live Messenger.
How can I stop this pop up on my desktop PC?

Hello Wytze_,

Thank you for your message.  Let's try turning off the pop-up.
If you have Windows Live Messenger 2009:
1. click on tools, select Options
2. click on the connection tab
3. uncheck the show Windows Live today after I connect to mailbox
For older versions:
1. click on tools, select Options
2. click on the general tab
3. uncheck the show Windows Live today after I connect to mailbox
There were a few discussions where people indicated that they downloaded Device Manager but then turned off to avoid the messages.  As seen HERE.
If none of these suggestions help to solve the problem, you can visit the Windows Live related forum HERE.
See you soon

    I am a brand new Member of cloud.  I heard about the update of the retina.  Assuming that's where updates seems logically I went first to the application "Adobe Application Manager".  Without closing the "Adobe Application Manager" I open Photoshop and went to the Help menu and select "Updates."... » ; a second window in the Application already handler open "Adobe".

    I chose the update of all.

    The result is less to:

    Now, I closed "Adobe Application Manager" and reopened "Photoshop" and again selected "updates... " on the Help menu.  The "Adobe Application Manager" opened again with just a window this time and the updates happened correctly.

    I was hoping a updates would be the "Adobe Application Manager", I don't think so.

    So, if I were you I would not select "Updates."... "in an Adobe application unless the " Adobe Application Manager " is closed until they fix IT...

    Hello, Skype, I had a quick question here.

    Because recently people solved my Skype account, knowing my IP and abuse by sending incessant attacks, I deleted some of my Skype accounts but I was wondering. Is there a way where you can avoid people to solve your Skype account only allowing direct connections to your contacts.

    I've been looking and lurking around the internet for advice, but they do not seem to help one thing here, and that's why I was wondering is how and what to do now. Because it's really bugging me that I am in need to delete accounts just because one doesn't know how to act normal.

  • Question CP9: HTML5: Apple: Android: how to avoid the click on the Play button / tap?

    Hello

    Captivate 9.0.0.223: HTML5 draft.

    I'm sorry to ask this question, it's a little old chestnut on HTML5 in Apple iOS and Android.

    I have searched on the internet and forums for a solution underway, but could not find something that works.

    The problem is how to avoid the PLAY button, which forces the user to click / tap on it, when the project is accessible on an Apple or Android system.

    Play_icon.png

    The project will be published on the internet for use on any Windows, Apple or Android device.

    I have no control over the Web server or devices that will use the people, so that any changes to the software server or browser is out of the question.

    I have tried both a plain HTML5 and a responsive project, but neither avoid the Play button. I put an example of 1 slide on these links.

    http://www.hoffits.com/test_responsive/index.html

    http://www.hoffits.com/test_html5/index.html

    The bottom line is: ' is it possible to remove the need for the user to click / press the Play button?

    In your normal HTML5, there is a line (I think it's 46) with this code:

    Add cp.movie.play (); Located below.

    so:

  • How to avoid the launch of Labview VI when he invokes in Teststand environment?

    Hi, friends.

    I am a student of teststand. I wrote a few screws by Labview. Now, I want to invoke in teststand environment.

    But when I run the sequence. LabVIEW automatically launches.

    How to avoid the launch of Labview when I run the sequence?

    Thank you.

    LabVIEW programs require a runtime engine. Under the TestStand configuration drop-down, select adapters. You can change the LabVIEW adapter to select the runtime rather than the development system.

    This should prevent the main screen of LabVIEW to appear, but you will not be able to change your LabVIEW VIs while they run of TestStand using the runtime engine.

  • How to avoid the launch of Labview when called by Teststand VI

    Hi, friends.

    I am a student of teststand. I wrote a few screws by Labview. Now, I want to invoke in teststand environment. But when I run the sequence. LabVIEW automatically launches. How to avoid the launch of Labview when I run the sequence?

    Thank you.

    I'm not sure that I follow what you're saying...  But it seems that when the VI is called, the LabVIEW Development software is started and you want to avoid this.

    If you create an executable file or a dll and that any call within TestStand, she should not call the development environment.  You must have the LabVIEW runtime engine installed on the target computer.

    For several years I used TestStand with LV, if my memory does not have to be precise.  I think that the above worked for me.  However, it seems that I remember something to have the LV code in debug mode, causing to open development environment... but it's a distant memory.    You do not use breakpoints where the LV VI is called, are you?
