Restore "Always do the selected action" window!

I inserted my Flash memory to my computer. Then the pop-up came let me know what I would do. I selected 'open folder' and unintentionally checked the background option 'always do the selected action. Now, whenever I connect to my Flash memory, it opens without this pop-up window. How to restore the default setting? I want to have the pop-up window, whenever I connect my storage device. Could you please help me? And Miles To Go Before I Sleep

Hi Prowesse,

Connect your USB to your computer. Open my computer, right-click on the drive letter of your USB drive and select Properties, now select Auto Play and select the radio button indicating "Ask Me each time to choose an action", click ok. now remove and try to reconnect your USB...

I hope this helps.

    Hi VikkHckrz,

    1. you remember to make changes to the computer recently?

    Method 1:

    You can consult the following KB article and run the fix it tool available and check if you can assign file association.

    When you run an .exe on a Windows Vista-based or Windows 7 computer file, the file may start another program

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950505

    Also check out the link:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/change-which-programs-Windows-uses-by-default

    After running the fixit so check the option is grayed out or not.

    Method 2:

    If you're still having problems, then you can try to change the settings in the registry only if it is present on your computer and check if it helps.

    a. Click Start, type regedit in the search box and press ENTER.

    b. navigate to the

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer

    (c) in the right side of the screen, double click on "NoFileAssociate".

    d. change the value of "NoFileAssociate" from 1 to 0.

    e. exit the registry editor and restart the computer and check.

    Important: The above mentioned steps show you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, follow the steps from the link below:

  • inadvertently, click "always use the selected program to open this type of file" how undefault and redo icon to the icon of white empty file?

    I accidentally click "always use the selected program to open this type of file" on the srt file. How to make it undefault and again the icon to icon file empty white?

    You can do this via a registry change, but it is more appropriate for a typical user to simply use the system restore:

    Ever wished that you can go back in time following a bad fall? With Windows, you can.

    Installation sometimes a driver or a program can make Windows run slowly or erratically. System Restore can return programs and system files from your PC to a time where everything worked, potentially prevent hours of troubleshooting of headaches. This will not affect your documents, images or other data.

    In Windows 7, you can create system restore points more and see exactly what files will be deleted or added when your PC is restored. For more information, see create a restore point.

    For more protection, use the restore system backup and restore, which is designed to help save email, photos, documents and other personal files.

    To use the system restore

    Before you start the system restore, save open files and close all programs. System Restore will restart your PC.

    1. Open system restore by clicking the start . In the search box, type restore the system and then, in the list of results, click on system restore.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. Follow the steps in the wizard to select a restore point and restore your computer.

      For more information, see System Restore: frequently asked questions.

    In Windows 7 system restore can prevent headaches hours after an accident.

  • Advanced Scripts of Action does not not in the advanced Actions window

    I have no idea how or why it happened, but on some scripts that I applied to some buttons, when I click on the folder icon to open the script in the advance action window, the script does not load. It shows just blank like this (screenshot below). If I try to select it from the dropdown of existing shares, it does not load. If I try to make a new script again, it will work initially, but the same thing happens if I try to open it again. No idea how to solve this problem?

    It looks like the corruption of the file. You're careful with naming of decisions and measures? Never use a name that has already been used for another object.

    If you copy an interactive object in a new project, the action in the annex is copied (at least if you're on CP8 or 9).  Normally slides copy and paste in a new project could help, only bit worried on the copy with the actions.

    Have you already restarted Captivate and maybe your system as well? Worth a try.

    When you use safari 9.1.2, by clicking on an option (for example "advance to the next page") on a website does not result in the proposed action. A "drop-down list of the option" unnecessary and undesirable appears instead. I have to click on the desktop out of the active page and then go back and open the selection again, often several times before the mouse click allows selection. What's wrong? How can I fix this problem?

  • A few Questions about the advanced Actions window

    Hello

    I have a few questions about the progress of the Actions (using the version of track CP7)

    1. What is the function of the action to "continue?"   Out of the peak action and advance the playback cursor?

    2. What does mean this comment "Nested calls to action advanced is a nice improvement."? Is the advanced decision at the top of a page of action tabs?

    3. What is the function of the option "custom" in the IF statement - "preform action if - custom", it doesn't seem to do anything for me?

    4. where can I get information about the timeline / playhead interaction with advanced actions, i.e. where the playhead is going again at the beginning of the slide. slide custom question - display button, e.g. verification of responses, comments - when all the objects are at the beginning of the timeline. I'm looking more for the read head of infromation functionality rather than how to implement this type of question.

    Thank you

    Donal.

    Continue: If an advanced standard action is triggered by a button, this will not trigger the playback head. If you want out, you can use continues. Continue can also be a choice in a conditional action, when one orders branching has nothing to special, but in advance. Continuous is also the "dummy" statement/command (this is the official name of a line in the dialog box advanced actions) If a statement has become unusable due to some reasons, it will be replaced by continue

    There is no nested call stocks advanced possible right now, one of my many feature requests. It would be sort of a subroutine that you can use over and over again, instead of having to create each time when necessary.

    A decision is one of the conditions to be an advanced conditional action. They allow to create more complex actions, as a loop or arrays are not possible. All decisions are executed in sequence and always.

    Custom: is a combination of or but it is rather limited, because you cannot use parentheses.

    I guess you'd better visit my blog if you want to learn more about the advanced actions.

    I also did several Webinars on stocks advanced, last this afternoon (on the sharing of the actions) for Adobe. They are all available on request.

  • Captivate 6 buttons go to the next slide instead of perform the selected action

    I have slides with one or more buttons on them. Success, they generally show or hide the any content or graphics. Sometimes, these buttons work correctly. Other times, when a button is clicked, the path forward to the next page. Any thoughts on what could cause this problem? I publish the course as SWF / HTML 5.

    Replace the simple action by a standard action to avoid releasing the read head. The behavior described in this blog, was valid for all versions up to 8 Captivate. Only to the CP9, it is now possible to stop the playhead to continue during the execution of a simple action:

    Why choose Standard Simple action? -Captivate Blog

  • Aspire V5 - 471P restore to clean the hard disk - Windows 8

    My son has a laptop Aspire V5 - 471P identical to mine (I liked it and it seemed easier to maintain two identical pieces). Bought off eBay sound but mine was new.  Unfortunately his hard drive failed, so I'm not going to adapt to a new.

    The V5 does not come with restore discs but mine can do a restore USB or can I clone my hard drive.  I prefer the latter option, so I can't go through the palaver to install all software, but I wonder if I can get a team when it comes to recording.

    What should I do as Windows registry is concerned?  There is no license key based on the laptop or on the guarantee and the narrow.

    I suggest that you create a backup media on your work machine restore as soon as possible.
    Otherwise, you would need to buy media from Acer.
    I don't know about V5 but my required Acer as a DVD, but also the USB stick for the game. When you create the set you will be shown the requirement for your machine.
    You can use the media created on both of your machines. There should be no need to worry about recording. This is happening automatically that the OEM key is embedded in the machine - Microsoft has eliminated the need of stickers and therefore are no longer used. Note that if you use Windows media from a different source, it will require the serial number of this version - the embedded key will not work.

  • How to remove the selected driver windows for your Android phone if you want to use a different driver such as pdanet?

    I am trying to download PDAnet found at http://junefabrics.com/android on my desk so that I can use my T - mobile Mytouch 4 G phone as a modem for internet.  During this process, Setup of hardware for windows installed a pilot Android usb which is not compatible with pdanet.  I was not able to remove this driver or make compadible with the driver that I would use.  I went into Device Manager and tried to uninstall the generic usb driver, but this does not seem to actually remove it. I also tried to update the driver, and it does not work either.  I rebooted the computer several times and run updates of Windows (just the ones he can do without internet).

    On my desktop computer's operating system is Microsoft Windows XP Professional, version 5.1.26. I did not send this email from the computer with the problem because, well, I HAVE no INTERNET on this computer.  Help, please!

    Hi Virginia,

  • Can'ty find the location to store the selection of Windows media player

    Tools > Option > Rip music tab is set to rip music to this place, this place
    When I save a playlist a new folder is created under playlists:

    If I move the file to C:\Users\Owner\Music\Playlists Media player does not.

    I want to systematically stored in playlists:

    How do I get there?

    Thanks for the reply Ric - W.
    I found that the designation of the location of library playlist is determined by:
    Tools > Options > tab music Rip
    As you say, I should have used:
    C:\Users\Owner\Music
    I like it now and it works OK.
    I'll remove the subordinate Playlist folder.
    Thanks for the help

    I still have the problem of adding a folder:

    I get No Track on three that I added using their playlists on the network/TV receiver.
