Shortcuts to the office and entered invalid start menu - Vista
The start-up of the PC, I found that all the shortcuts to the office and especially the start menu entries no longer works. Start-up like google gadgets applications has not started. A dialog box appears asking what application can use. I was able to start the Explorer OK and for some files like word files the application will start and load the file - even for google gadgets. For other applications such as firefox it would not start and just bring up the same dialog box. IE would try to start and display a stop of the blank page and bring up the dialog box.
I run the File Checker and everything is OK.
Then, I created a new user account, and it seems to work normally. Can I change the permissions to allow this new users to access all my original user files or is there a way to restore the original user account?
Thank you
Izzy
What do you call, you may have a corrupted user account.
Is the user account that was giving you problems also a user account or the Admin account?
1. If it's just a user account, remove it.
2. If an Admin account, make the new user as a new administrator account and delete the old admin account.

Hello
1. what changes have been made to your computer before the problem?
Follow these steps and check if they help.
Step 1:
I would say you rebuild the icon cache and check if the problem persists.
a. press the keyboard Windows logo key combination + R to bring up the Run dialog box.
b. type cmd and press ENTER to open the command prompt window.
c. in the command prompt window, type the following commands pressing ENTER after each line:
Taskkill /f /im explorer.exe
attrib-h "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\IconCache.db.
del "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\IconCache.db.
Explorer.exed. this restart Windows Explorer and rebuild the cache icons as needed.
Step 2:
Test the issue in a new user account.

Hi dear I have not much experience in batch file writing but forums I dig a code and try to shape according to my requirments but after beating head couldn't get the correct result comes in front of you people help me please. file code of my baby
off @echo
MD C:\tempbackup\DAY_%DATE%
MD C:\DAY_%DATE%
Create shortcut f t C:\tempbackup\DAY_%DATE% - n "\Documents and Settings\eric\Start Menu\Proams"
using this code, it create a folder and a file on the desktop as well, but is not a shortcut, it is just a file by name as the file Tempbackup.
Basically, I want like this
(1) I want to create the shortcut from the folder on the desktop of the file created in the folder Tempbackup
(2) this file beats on execution will also remove old one day from the desktop shortcut
so when I see this file to run. n IT run create the file in the specified folder, but no shortcut or create a shortcut without a path. When I click on the shortcut, it ask me how to open this file. so it's not a good shortcut or not a correct path.
as I think that it good to mention here, that there is no other shortcut to other desktop I want to create so all DELETE option works perfectly.
Please help me like you people can help...

ericciscoHello
Try these steps-
Create the shortcut proposed (to cmd.exe/c start)
Now, open properties such as proposed
Add the full path in the 'Target' field with your own relative path and the app, for example
%windir%\system32\CMD.exe /c start your_relpath\app.exe [your_args]That's all. However, doing so does not change the current working of the called program directory. If this is desired, then enter the following alternative:
%windir%\system32\CMD.exe /c "cd your_relpath & start app.exe [your_args].The & is described as a command separator (see cmd /?). Note: Put something like '% CD%\your_relpath\' in the field ' start in ' doesn't do anything.
You can try this as well-
Create .bat file close record/yarn that you want to have the relative path
Edit the file, and the file type: (as you want to open c:\bin\app.exe, and then place file beats in c:\run.bat)
Departure bin\app.exe
Save the run.bat file and double-click it to open it. -

Hi, I have problems with my PC (Windows Vista) mothers. Margot opened the narrator and now it starts automatically when it restarts or logs and new. How can she stop it? I tried msconfig but can't find it. It is very annoying as Margot does not use it and need to close whenever it connects. I tried everything to stop it in the help files.

Pavilion a1620n won't start, the fans are not running. PS on the light and Sun. Start button does not illuminate. EU tested ps and I was told it was OK. Disconnected from the motherboard except course before directed ps button and the cpu fan has become much brighter, but that's all that happened. Any suggestions on what to check? Checked with VOM push and he seemed to agree. Replaced the MB with the new Board of Directors, that didn't work either. Don't know if it was any good, it was a store Bulletin Board.
All the indicators you mention leads to the PSU, not the Board of Directors.

Sharing between the office and cell phones driver
How to share a driver (with data files) from the desktop (Windows 7 Home Premium) with a laptop (window Vista Home Basic) through a router?
Hello little bb,.
A quick correction: you mean in car no driver. A road is a place of storage for files, a driver is a program that communicates with the hardware (printers, cameras, scanners and the mouse have a drivers for example).
In any case, to share your car from the desktop to a laptop computer, there are several choices. This tutorial on this page provides an excellent walkthrough.
However, an easier method is to use the "Homegroup". Since the first computer, open your Start menu and type "homegroup" to find the option to create a home group. Once created, you can do the same from the laptop to join the home group. Once completed, the two computers will see each other and you will see a new folder 'group' on the left side of your file Explorer that allows you to access shared drives on the other computer.
