Replace the previous Question on Windows 7 jump lists

Previous question incorrectly referred to as Windows 7 Jump Lists rather than the Start menu lists.  I tried to delete it, but could not... Please disregard.  It is corrected below:

With the Windows 7 Start Menu, number of items in the list of the default Start Menu is set to 10.  There are currently 10 applications in this list.  When I opened an application 11, different from those in the list on the Start Menu, I expected to be added to the list with the oldest list entry being deleted (by example, most recent, most former fate).  This was not the case.  When I click an app (PPT 2007) from the desktop, regardless of how many times I opened it, it was not added to the list of the Start Menu.  Only after you open in the all programs list it has been added to this list.  In addition, no matter how many times I opened Windows Explorer, whether by the bar of tasks or in the list of all programs, it is not added to the list of the Start Menu.

The Microsoft online help States the following on the list from the Start Menu:

"You will notice that, over time, the lists of the programs in your Start menu change. This happens for two reasons. First of all, when you install new programs, they have added to the list of all programs. Second, the start menu detects the programs you use the most and places them in the left pane for quick access. »

First of all, what is adding programs to the list of all programs has to do with the list of the Start Menu?  If I install a new application, is automatically added to the start menu?  Second, what are the programs will be added to the list of the Start Menu?  You have to open 'x' repeatedly to be added to the list?  Are there exceptions to what is added to the list and if so, what are those exceptions?

If someone can explain the details of how the list of the Start Menu is supposed to behave, I would be very grateful.  At the moment it seems inconsistent.  All of the default settings in the Start Menu properties that affect the lists are active (for example; ("Store and display recently opened programs in the menu start" and "Store and display recently opened items in the start menu and taskbar" is selected both).

Thanks much for any help.

    What you suggest is possible but it takes software and third-party quality loss.

    Instead, export a QuickTIme movie. If you have a choice of codecs, choose Apple Intermediate Codec. You can save it where you want it-maybe in the movies.

    Then import the movie into FCP as a clip.

    Good luck.

  • When I click on a table in the left, the tab page replaces the previous

    Hi all

    When I click on a table in the left tree, the tab page replaces the previous, how to disable this feature? These are inconveniences because I view each design of the table of different tab pages.

    anyone here have any suggestions? really appreciate it.

    You have 2 ways to do this:

    (1) when you open a table, click on the pin located in the upper right of the open tab button, it locks this table and a new one will open in a new tab, it works only once, so you can locate only the tables that you really do need to stay open.

    (2) you can set the property ' automatically Viewer gel "(or something like that) in

    Tools-> preferences-> database-> Object Explorer

    This will automatically locate each table you open.

  • My edited icon does not replace the previous version on the desktop

    I use CVI 7.0 on Windows XP. I used CVI icon editor to create an icon 32 x 32 for my application. The target parameters build cutting edge of window to file icon and displays correctly. I also created a group of files in the window of Distribution Kit and the group contains only the .exe with the option to create shortcuts on the desktop. I build dist kit and install it, him and everything is fine. The icon appears on the desktop and launches the application.

    The problem is when I change the icon file. The modified version appears in the settings of the target (great so far), but when I have the dist of rebuilding kit and install it, the old desktop icon is not replaced by the new although the old icon still launches the latest version of the app. I have not changed the GUID between generations, so running setup.exe kit dist first deletes the previous version of the application and its icon on the desktop. The second round of setup.exe installs the new version of app but the old icon.

    If I change the name of the icon file every time then the correct icon appears on the desktop. However I prefer to use a generic icon for each version file name. It of like CVI or Windows associates the first version of an app icon and remembers that the association is updated using a different icon file name.

    So the question is, how can I make sure that the latest version of the icon appears on the desktop do not have to change the file name each time?

    Mark,

    I got a solution to nickb. This can be found at http://decibel.ni.com/content/message/8480#8480. I'm new to these forums, so I don't know why it seems to be in a different for your response area, unless somehow I posted the original question in two areas. In any case, in case there is something wrong with the link, the solution is to delete the cvibuild. Directory and then recompile the project. I found more than remove the resources.res file was sufficient. As I said to nickb, it would be good if CVI deleted this directory automatically to ensure a clean build each time.

    Thank you for your time.

    Tom.

  • How do I synchronize more photos without having to replace the previously synced photos

    When I try and sync an album of photos and videos, the iPad wants to remove and replace all previously synced.  I just want to add an album without removing other photos.  How can I get this right?

    I use Windows 10, my iTunes version is up-to-date, as is my iPad 2.

    Photos/videos that sync you from your computer can not be deleted directly in the Photos app, instead, they are removed by including not not in the next synchronization of photos (so you say actually iTunes to replace the pictures/videos you synchronized last)-you must select and synchronize all the pictures/videos you want from your computer and synchronize them at once

  • Pavilion G7-1260us: 3 responses to the previous question were well intended but not useful. Video recording palette failed

    Apologize to publish new same problem but to reaffirm for clarification. The computer works fine with default (poor) VGA graphics, but stops almost immediately when using Intel HD 3000 graphics. All the equipment tests pass including the motherboard, but the test of component for video control palette fails.  I guess that it is the graphics card Intel chip but I don't know if it can be repaired or replaced... or anything else will cause the described problem? I have a problem almost identitical with a Macbook Pro with Intel High Res graphics card. Works well with the low-resolution graphic aps and I fear it's an insoluble Intel so stir the question.

    Finally 'pass' on all the tests.  After replacing the CPU, Windows 7 started many, many updates to loading. I downloaded the HP Vision Hardware Diagnostics for additional verification, and that's all right. Graphics card Intel HD 3000 works with 3D Open GL tests.

    Thank you.

  • Back to the previous version of Windows.

    When I install Windows Tech Preview, it will erase Windows 8 or keep it in the disk hard where I want to install Windows 8 of my hard drive.

    If you install Windows 8 a upgrade, you can use the restore feature.

    How to recover / restore your previous version of Windows by using the restore feature

    Points to remember:

    Given that Microsoft made available the first version of the preliminary version of Windows 10 in early October 2014, there was a misunderstanding that this is not a product you use to replace a facility for production of Windows such as Windows 8 or 7 or Vista. On the other hand, if you test it on one machine, the best recommendation is to create a partition or have a spare ready hard drive where you can install it. Windows 10 in its current state of the pre-release will expire, and at the same time, it's unfinished work. So if you need to evaluate it, the best way is by installing it next to your commercial installation of Windows.

    Benefits

    The benefits of testing 10 Windows on a physical partition or hard disk compared to a Virtual Machine include full access to the material, which includes memory, graphics and input/output of the local disk performance can take full advantage of all the features of the operating system that are not accessible in a virtual environment. The biggest advantage is, you do not lose your production facility in Windows and you can restart it at any time.

    Points to consider before:

    Backup your current Windows installation. Because you're going to make changes on your computer, you should always back up before doing so. It is strongly recommended! See the links to resources on the backup by clicking the link for each version of Windows you are using: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1
