• How to find shortcuts for Windows Vista?

  Where should I go on the computer to find the list of the keyboard shortcuts?

  Specifically, I would like to know what the shortcut is to create a new folder. Told me ctrl + n, but that just seems to reopen the case.

  I could just look that up online, but I would like to know where the list is located on the computer in case I have questions in the future.

• I have windows vista and when I click on a shortcut on the desktop I have a pop up asking what file to open it with. In order to open the file I find the actuall file.

  Original title: registry exe problem

  I have windows vista and when I click on a shortcut on the desktop I have a pop up asking what file to open it with. In order to open the file I find the actuall file. This also occurs when you download the software, which makes it difficult, because the file is not on the pc yet. All solutions?

  Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

  If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

  You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

  Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  I hope this helps. Good luck.

  On 13 April, I fist notice this problem. I managed to it is resolved according to restore my computer to a previous point prior to the windows vista update have been installed. I didn't create a new restore point and also forgot to uncheck "automatic installation of windows. A few days later, the same problem after updates have been installed again on April 15. Unfortunately, this time I don't have a restore point previous April 15. So, I restored it on next day 16, but not resolved the issue. So I uninstall all vista windows update installed on April 15 but did not help either.

  After upgrade, go to the Windows Update site to download the latest driver for this device.

  Hello

  I see a long list of drivers that need to be updated: O
  But I m not surprised because all the drivers of Toshiba pilots and as far as I know these drivers are designed for only the WinXP. Request as a result of update.

  But as you may know Vista is not official on the market and that's why you won't find any Toshiba Vista drivers on the Web site.
  I think that Toshiba will offer drivers if Vista will be official on the market.

  We will have to wait

• Touchscreen unresponsive on Portege M750 Windows Vista SP2

  Have very old tablet Portege that I use for teaching.
  Recently, I have 2 questions.

  Fn + F5 first stopped working (used to operate through different display options and now does not work)
  It will work with some projectors light up the computer when you are connected but not others.
  Have tried all the options of mobility control panel of configuration/windows nothing helped.

  Especially the touch screen no longer meets your finger or the stylus.
  If I open the windows journal and try to write the name of the file and the options of the menu just gray go and the cursor disappears temporarily.

  After a few seconds if I wiggle my finger on the mouse cursor pad reappears and if I then click on the button of the mouse menu options can be selected again, but as soon as I try to write the same thing happens.

  I checked that all the Wacom drivers work correctly and up-to-date and that the pen and input device settings are correct - please help!

  Hello

  To be honest I n don't know why the Tablet feature stopped working but I suppose that its software problem and fix it by reinstalling driver/software.

  First of all I recommend you to uninstall the following software components:

  _Value-added paquet_

  -TOSHIBA components common driver is an essential component of Windows Vista. He will have to make the other original programming TOSHIBA works correctly.

  -TOSHIBA accelerometer utilities: these utilities are a set of material utilities that work with the integrated motion sensors you machine. With the accelerometer, your machine will be able to detect how you're holding it at one point. You can set the machine to perform a specific function when the device is tilted quickly left or right, either at the front or back. You can also take control of the cursor in some applications and move by leaning the PC in a certain direction.

  _Dual Driver_ touch
  -This driver is the model and touch screen digitizer. It activates the feature PC stylus or finger can be used as a pointing device.)

  After the mentioned tools have been uninstalled, restart the laptop, clean the system using a tool like CCleaner 3rd.
  Then visit the Toshiba EU driver page http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and download and install the previous uninstalled software!

• iTunes crashes on start up with Windows Vista

  For the last week or so iTunes crashed during startup to the top in Windows Vista. I have the 32-bit version. I tried to uninstall and reinstall. This doesn't seem to help. When it plant, I get a blue screen with a lot of text that does not stay up long enough to read. Then, the computer stops and restarts. I tried to install different version of iTunes, 12.1.3.6 and especially 12.1.2.27. I tried a restore of the entire system to a restore point that I thought was the problem. That no longer works. I did a full antivirus software scan and found no viruses either. I have run out of ideas and would appreciate any help that is available. Cannot synchronize calendars from Microsoft Office to my iPhone.

  For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

  The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

  Make sure after you have uninstalled all the components Apple to remove iTunes shortcuts from the desktop, taskbar, or start menu before you reinstall.

  Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

  More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

  Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

• I get an error of binding of the program trying to reopen the Windows Vista Games.

  From: Brian
  
  When you try to open a standard game installed, IE solitaire, chess, mahjong, I get the message error "file doesn't have a program that are associated with...". "" Under turn Windows features on and outside ', I have uninstalled/reinstalled and still the same error message.  Under default programs, I don't get the options for games.  I can run the games of "all programs" and create shortcuts on the desktop and they work, however, some of my family members are struggling to do it this way. "  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  From: Brian

  Steve - very good suggestion.  You have to change the registry.  If you are not running an improved version of Vista, under Start, search, type regedit, and go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\lnkfile. Click Edit, new, string value and name IsShortcut. Name should have a red ab at the front and is of type REG_SZ.

  If this is an upgrade version, it is difficult to tell the location of the folder. Click on modify, search for, and then type in NeverShowExt and this is where the entry IsShortcut must be created.

  After installation, restart and the shortcut arrows should be back and the links in the Games folder should work.
