Satellite L630 - how to rename files or folder in the Start Menu
I used to rename files and folders by clicking the right button of the mouse or touchpad set and choose Rename.
With my new Satellite L630, if I click on the right button, the menu with the options does not appear.
It does not appear when I right-click on ay other file or folder, but not in the start menu. I can also drag an item any within the start menu.
So I can not at all to customize (already tried with F2, does not or)
What should I do to rename, drag the items from the start menu?
Thank you for your kind contributions,
Walter
Hi mate
I assume you are using Win7. Right?
Cannot rename files (programs) that appear in the Start Menu.
You can ONLY rename folders.
If you click on all programs, then you should also see some folders there.
Right click on the folder and you should see the option rename.
Choose this option and then you should be able to rename the folder

If I remember correctly, I was playing solitaire spider on this computer about 1 year ago, but now I can't find the Games folder in the start menu. In the past, the record of the games was still installed automactically when I installed the operating system. Can it be restored or installed from a stand alone facility?
Thank you
Frank
When you go to start, type spider and see if it lists the game. Otherwise, type appwiz.cpl and press ENTER. Then click Add windows components, and then check out the games. Sometimes, on Windows 7 Pro, they are disabled.

Two problems:
1. when I said Firefox 4 to return to the default toolbar, he returned to v. 3. I reinstalled v. 4, but that did not help.
2. I tried to open it in safe mode and discovered that there is no Mozilla or Firefox folder in my Start menu.
I'm the home runnint Windows 7, 64-bit.
1.
The orange Firefox button appears when the menu bar is hidden. Turn off Bar Menu item in view > toolbars or from the context menu for toolbars.2.
You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox to open it again. -
How to remove "HP recovery manager" from the start menu?
A year ago, I had a virus attack on my computer. Knocked it completely. In the process of reinstalling the computer, HP Recovery Manager was added to the start menu.
Now I need to remove it in the start menu because it takes an unnecessarily long time to start Windows. How can I do this?
Sorry if this has already been written solution, don't know what keywords should I look for in this forum to get answers to my questions.
Thanks for the reply

Just need a shortcut for 'recent documents' which has disappeared. It had XP & Vista.
Could find and add a shortcut to 'new document' that displays white screen, fax, letter, etc.
Cancan, probably not what you want, but is "Recent Articles" in the start menu of good?
It will contain recent documents, but also has other types of files like images.
Sorry if you tried and it's not what you need, or I misunderstood.

All program files and shortcuts from the "Start" menu disappeared
I use Windows Vista Home Premium (SP2) (64-bit). Two days back, I've updated my windows. After restarting the PC, all program files and shortcuts in Start menu disappeared. The shortcuts that I myself had added manually do not work.
Have you tried to do the restore of the system in SafeMode as stated in my answer 1 to you?
If it doesn't/does not work:
If you do not want to repost in the Windows Update Forum (they are the specialists it for the best advice regarding your problem), make this disc Bootable startup repair and use it to do a system restore or uninstall the updates by using the method 2nd in my 1st reply:
Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.
When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html
Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.
NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.
Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:
http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/
ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html
It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.
You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.
It is NOT a disc of resettlement.
And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.
See you soon.

How can I email free outlook on the start menu?
I have one of the programs of mail electronics free outlook. Whenever I go there I have to go to a Web page and type in the connection to outlook, and then click one of the options that appears. Is there a way to get an icon on the desktop or in the toolbar down so I can do all this with one click? I think that there must be, but I don't know how.
Thanks if anyone can help.
If you want it to be directly on the taskbar under a single button, you can use Internet Explorer as a browser instead of chrome. It also has functions that allow these buttons click works more like a real program. If you shoot on facebook, you get a facebook icon, which is a link with a single click on the site, but the right click has facebook specific links, and the button light up even when you have a new message waiting.
