Required Windows Vista programs

Just bought second hand desktop using Windows Vista. There are a LOT of programs installed... How will I know what programs I can not remove.

Hello

You remove them, you uninstall - Control Panel - programs and features.

Check here and if you think you don't need specific programs then
ask in a message here in these forums.

Do a little research about what a program that will help you decide. Use
BING or Google.

I hope this helps.

  • All of my Windows Vista programs appear under the same icon.

    Problem with Vista programs: all of my Windows Vista programs make their appearance as the same icon.  How can I fix it and what happened?

    Rebuild the cache icon as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/117229-icon-cache-rebuild.html.  That should take care of the problem.  I don't know why it happened - but I've seen it before, and we never really determined the cause then either.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • I am trying to remove the read-only in a file of windows vista program

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with the program files in Windows Vista. I have a file that I need to be able to write to and I can't get out of the read-only mode. Can someone help me with this please?

    Thank you.

    You really shouldn't be messing around in the Program Files folder unless you REALLY know what you are doing, because the wrong action can cause a lot of damage to your programs (more than one in some cases).  You experience trouble intentionally caused by Vista.

    But assuming you want to do anyway for some reason, the said problem as a Teen geek is ownership and permissions.  They are particularly tight on the programs folder (and hard to get around even for people experienced in this sort of thing).

    You must you give full permissions and take ownership of the files or the folders that you intend to work with.  You may need to change the permissions of the parent due to inherited permissions folders.  You may also use the advanced permissions option to deal with special permissions (maybe change some while they are not inherited or others in order to provide the right permissions as well as the main permissions screen.  I don't know how long until you go to appropriating, but start with everything that you need and work upward only when necessary.  Here are a few guidelines for permissions and lines taken possession that should help you:

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can keep them in read-only to other users, customers and administrators even (although they can support themselves and access, if they wish, and it is really not that you can do to stop it except protect the file with a password by using a 3rd party product.)  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/

    I hope this helps.

  • Problems in using a DOS Windows Vista program

    I hope someone can help me with this.  I currently have a HP Compaq Presario F700 computer laptop (GR967UA #ABA) which has a processor bicoeur AMD Athlon 64 X 2 (TK - 55 1.80 GHz).  I have 1.0 Gig of RAM, and it's a 32 bit OS.  I am running Windows Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 1.  My problem is the following:

    I installed a program of production/printing barcode Dynacomp, a MS-DOS program that told me the company is compatible with and would work on Windows Vista operating system.  I can get the program to operate in all directions except for actually photograph the barcode.  When I try to do, all I get is an error message indicating "device PRN of spelling error".  I checked the connections to printers, operation and have no problem printing with something else.

    I'm not a user of BACK and just the most basic familiarity with its use, for example. If there is no step by step instructions, I'm lost.  Any ideas on why printing is a problem or if all goes well a few ideas on fixing or working around the issue would be greatly appreciated.

    This is JUST A GUESS, but I assume that the program tries to write about the default printer... know LPT1, which is a device of parallel port... which YOU probably do not even!  This thread seems to discuss your problem: http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum/winxp/t1018027328 (Google: BACK set default printer).  Technically, their program MAY work in Vista, command prompt, but maybe ONLY when the computer has a parallel port LPT1 printer is connected.  You need to talk to Dynacomp and ask them what to do to address setting up YOUR printer.  If you Google long enough, you'll probably find the answer yourself... There are VERY FEW problems, that no one else has not met before (you), and they are kind enough to document their journey

  • Why do some executable programs require Windows Vista user account control to start, while others do not?

    For example, Iobit Advanced System Care 6 requires user account control to start, while none of the programs Microsoft Office requires user account control to start, but they are all executables (*.exe).  Why?

    EXE files may have a small text file embedded in them that controls this behavior (and other). A file called programname.manifest in the same folder can do it too, but one stand-alone exe substitute manifests (vista and later).

    Here is one that requires the Admin run and also uses 6 worm of the common controls.
