• FILE EXPLORER Windows 10 does not work

  I upgraded from windows 7 Home Windows 10. Everything worked for three months. Now my file manager does not work. If I double click on a shortcut, nothing happens. No message or errors, no feedback at all. If I select file from the menu 10 windows Explorer it lists recent locations, but if I click on anything that it is once more the window closes and no feedback of any kind. To access my files, I have to go well as the search for application files. Is no more, I can add folders or improve my organization of files. Of course he used to work so I guess it has become corrupt. What do we do to fix this problem, I see, it is a common problem in looking at the forums for microsoft, but no one said a suggested fix worked.

  Hello

  Here what's new on the win10 File Explorer:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows-10/getstarted-whats-changed-in-file-explorer
  
  And here is the solution:

  The service is called Windows search and disabled once it provided functionality in the file Explorer. The search function in the file Explorer works but isn't looking in the taskbar.
  
  Step by step guide:
  1. hold Win + r to open the run
  2. type msconfig and click ok or enter
  3. click on Services
  4. go to Windows search (you can sort the list in descending alphabetical order)
  5. clear the check box
  6. click apply then ok
  7. Select restart now
  
  I hope it works for you.

• Windows Vista does not work with modem wireless broadband

  I saw no answer to this problem.  Can anyone help?

  Windows Vista on my DELL laptop at home does not work with my new NETGEAR modem wireless broadband 3 G.  The modem appears in the list of networks, I just errors like: unable to connect, cannot diagnose,... Both devices work perfectly well together when connected by cable but not wireless.  Interestingly, my laptop work, also a DELL but runing Windows XP, works very well with the NETGEAR modem.

  Summary:
  Vista / Netgear wired - work
  Vista / Netgear wireless - does not work
  XP / Netgear wireless - work

  I went through the NETGEAR troubleshooting guide, doing everything from changing the types of security to manually enter the MAC address of the laptop.  I ran to the ground with the NETGEAR support engineers, and they said check with Microsoft.  I am convinced that it has something to do with Vista.  Any ideas?

• Search for content of a file in Windows 7 does not work. What I am doing wrong?

  I read a bunch of messages on this website, as well as others, on the way to search for content in a file. I followed the instructions, but it does not work for me.

  As I understand it, if I'm looking for a file containing the word 'pelican', I must type

  content: "Pelican".

  It does not work.

  I also read that it speeds up the search if I turn on indexing. This is not feasible because there is more than 4 TB with a value of files on my company's server and indexing is apparently intended to apply only to files that are frequently used in areas that are frequently used.

  I guess I'm doing something wrong, because I've seen post this question even others and tell then the answer has worked for them, but it does not work for me.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Just type Pelican in fact, content: is not necessary.

  If you do not want to reserve a site indexed, there is an option that you can set to make a slow files manual scan (although it might take hours or days or weeks for the search engine to open and analyze inside 4 TB with a value of files over a slow network connection.  I hope that the server is indexing on, even if you do not have.  If this isn't the case, you'll be sorely out of luck.

• Windows Vista does not work for all programs requiring administrator rights

  I have Windows Vista Business SP1 on a Dell XPS laptop. He worked from 3-4 years. It seems that after a recent update (in the last week), I rebooted the laptop and after that Vista can not run programs that require administrator privileges. This includes most of the items in the Panel, the observer of events, computer management, elevated command prompt and so on.

  After logging in, I get a notification of the task bar that says "Windows cannot connect to the customer service group policy."

  When I try to any program requiring administrative privileges (for example, msconfig), I get an error "Windows cannot find C:\Windows\system32\msconfig.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again"

  I restored the system (from safe mode) for a day where it seems to be ok, but the problem remains.

  The sound in the system tray icon is a trademark of the Red Cross on it, but sounds work ok.

  Analyses of virus through McAfee (all installed updates and latest virus definitions) showed no signs of the virus.

  As already mentioned in the original post, System Restore does not resolve the problem. I got to the new vista installation to fix the problem. Some windows updates and reboot after applying the update seems to be the cause.

     and then click computer.

  2. Click System Properties on the toolbar, and then click click here to activate Windows now in the Windows activation area.
     

     If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click continue.

  3. Select the Windows Vista activation method that you want, and then follow the instructions.

  To avoid this problem in the future, obtain the latest service pack for your version of Windows Vista, either through automatic updates or direct download.
