saving the settings for multiple monitors
I have a laptop connected to an external monitor, and I use screens, as main external and portable like the wide screen display. Every time I have away and anchor I lose all the display settings and have to redo. Is there a way to save the day.
Hi bitosa,
This is more or less normal. If you ever remove the portable computer from the docking station, he would remember the settings. But given that you change your primary display to the external monitor (a bit like using only an external and by closing the lid on the laptop), when you restart your computer on the dock, he can't find where to view your desktop so it resets the LCD on the laptop (as opposed to only get a white screen).
The only real solution I found is to use the laptop as the primary display device. The ability to change the main screen is more designed for desktop systems which are never disconnected from the monitor. Brent

I downloaded the settings for 720 p and 1080 p made in 16:9 and 4:3 and added to my record of profiles on Windows Movie Maker as the instructions said, but when I made the video in 16 / 9 in 1080 p and upload it to YouTube, it's always at the 480 p standard? People say that you can render videos in 1080 p, but mine won't. Tried to figure this point during a day or two with no luck and Google is no help with anything.
It's maybe a stupid question... but you have saved the Movie Maker

I just installed Firefox 4 today. When I try to change the settings for keyword.url in topic: config to make one "I'm Felling Lucky" Google search, it just resets to chrome://browser-region/locale/region.properties whenever I restart Firefox.
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the Add-ons is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > appearance/themes).
- Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.

XP Pro, SP3. I downloaded the free Bullzip pdf printer. Somehow my old printer pdf in my printer disappeared list which I have used for years. I get this message when installing - "you are not allowed to change the settings for this printer. If you need to change the settings, contact your system administrator. I click ok and it ends, but it doesn't work. It does not appear in the printer control panel as a printer to change anything.
I built this computer at home and I'm the only one using it. What is this function 'administrator '? I've never had to administrator on any program. Never. That is what it is?
CNET is infamous for the grouping of things in its downloads as much a / v programs report as junk (I went through the same thing using eSet NOD32 has / v). I seem to remember that if you ignore the warning and download the exe file and then use a tool like the free 7-zip to extract only the file necessary to run the program you want, you can work around the problem.
For a pdf printer free which is not CNET - and works well - go here--> http://www.cutepdf.com/products/cutepdf/writer.asp

I installed Microsoft Security Essentials today and I'm trying to edit startup programs. Whenever I try to change the settings for startup from the Control Panel, a pop up tells me that I need to activate Windows Defender and open. However, most of the security will not allow Windows Defender be turned on and I want to change the startup parameters. How can I accomplish this?
Hello
If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.
There is nothing to worry.
Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.
If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:
http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
And now edit startup in Vista without using Defender programs, use one of the following methods:
"How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"
http://netsquirrel.com/Msconfig/msconfig_vista.html
Or the program Autoruns for FREE:
"V11.21 Autoruns for Windows"

HP Photosmart Premium - how can I hold the settings for the copy?
I have a HP Photosmart Premium. I want to make photocopies at 70% the original size. Notice that I must do this in the glass and not the bin because it's in a book. I have to know how to adjust the settings for this, but I DO NOT WANT to have to put in the settings every time for the next 38 pages. Is there a way to keep the settings temporarily?
HI, in the menu copy, perform the required settings. Then find the line "set as new default" and click ok. Set as new default value must be in the menu to copy as well, it should be the last option.

How to change the settings for the taskbar in Windows 7.
Anyone know if its possible to change the settings for the taskbar for the other windows or games can cover or be on top of the taskbar. I have my taskbar set to the top of the screen and when I start Flight Simulator Microsoft in full-screen or 1920 x 1080, he fills the entire screen except the upper part which is the bar of tasks, and because of this the windows sim who loses more space and shows its own menu with windows that... yet once loses more than space. The vertical extent of real world it takes away 1 inch of space on the screen that I find pretty ridiculous. These two programs are both manufactured by Microsoft, in my opinion, that they must work with each other, so I hope that im missing something in 2015?

Edit: Auto Hide on the top is not a solution but a miserable boring frustration.
(Taskbar + tabs/url/search/minimize/output = someone must die)
Thank you program is in windowed mode full-screen because of the taskbar.
* See below screenshot of restoration
for everyone who has this problem, I found a solution!
Download rammichael.com/7-bar of tasks-tweaker
Right click on the bar tasks once run-> advanced-> click disable_topmost options->, icon 7TT
Enter 2 (starting from 0)-> click on apply and ok
* Note that the program must execute to the difficulty of working so defined to run at startup during installation
This program does a lot of things, but this will allow your taskbar to stay in place and allow it to be covered by windows.

Most, but not all emails that I receive that contains images come as 'slide show', and where the image should be, there is a blank box with a red x. Is it possible in Windows Live Mail to change the settings for the images remain in the body of the email, not in a slide show?
I know that they are sent correctly, because I send on my iPod and the photos are where they should be.
