Solution: How can I disable IE9 asking if I want to save the file when I click on a video link?

It happened once before, but I don't remember the solution.

A few days ago started IE9 conventional if I want to save a file when I click on a video link.  I want to happen is for Windows Media Player to view the video.  I don't want to save on my computer, and if I did, I know how to right click and choose Save target as...

It is very frustarting as Windows hides these obvious options without giving you a way easty to change.  I don't know what has caused the change at first.

WMP is set as default player for all supported media types.

Solution: Although WMP is already set as default program for all its supported video format, I had to go to set your default programs and select explicitly.

Looks like the info bar itself would have the option available.

  • Firefox prompts to save passwords of websites. The key to the Password Manager icon appears on the left side of the address bar, but the corresponding window asking if I want to save the password or not, does not appear. I tried all the possible solutions

    I installed the latest version of Firefox on my laptop (Windows 7 Professional 64-bit). The thing is that firefox prompt to save passwords of websites. I'll explain you a little more away with an example: suppose I load www.gmail.com. When I login, the password manager key is displayed on the left side of the address bar, but the corresponding window which would ask if I want to save the password or not, does not appear. I tried all the possible solutions. It is true that when I restart firefox with disabled modules (safe mode), password manager works fine. But I don't really use Add-ons that could prevent firefox to save passwords. I disabled all add-ons and ran firefox in normal mode, but the password manager does not work yet. Please keep in mind that I tried everything and that any post not published so far describes a similar problem to mine case. Consider that I have the same I have configured the entire system from the beginning. The problem appeared again from the first time I launched firefox. At that time, I had not installed any antivirus software and there is no add-on with firefox. Hope someone can give me a valid solution...

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

    It is possible that there is a problem with key3db and signons.sqlite files that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox.

    Rename signons3.txt and signons.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can add .old files (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) names or move them to another folder to make it possible to cancel the action.

    You must define a new master password after renaming or removing the signons3.txt and all the currently saved passwords are lost.

    If that worked, then you can delete the renamed files that are no longer needed.

  • How can I disable standby/hibernation / startup emits a beep and the sounds?

    I have a Lenovo Thinkpad x 200 running vista Ultimate edition. 7454 - cto of type

    How can I disable those annoying beeps that sound whenever my computer goes in and out of standby and Hibernate.

    I tried to transform the model of 'No sound' sounds, but the tone still sounds when the computer enters and wakes from sleep and hibernation.

    If I turn on "mute" is put into standby or Hibernate mode, the beep does not sound (which is what I want). Unfortunately, its impossible to come back on MUTE when im trying to put the computer away from the sleep or Hibernate (which makes it very distracting to turn on the computer during the class).

    Solution:

    Enter the BIOS by pressing F1 during startup

    > Config

    > Beep and alarm

    Tone control power set to [Disabled]

    Your solution is correct, but I think it's also accessible under ThinkPad Power Manager software. Go to the "Global settings" tab and choose "beep when the power state changes.»

  • Why firefox repeatedly asked if I want to save a password when I already clicked ever "for this site?

    I like the fact that Firefox will save my passwords, but I don't want that to record the essential password like banking etc. When I enter my banking website, Firefox asks "I want to save this password". I click "never for this site". But the next time I'm on my Bank's Web site, he asks me the same question again and again.

    Is there a way I can stop Firefox do this? Either way, my bank site never appears in the 'Exceptions' box (to the saved passwords).

  • How can I get permanent Private Browsing, I want to save passwords?

    I tried several times to turn off private browsing which requires a reboot. After the reboot, private browsing is always engaged. What I want, it is to be able to save passwords from time to time and can't restore that work in private browsing.

    Your list of details of the system shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time you start Firefox.
    The user.js file will be present if you or a other software created this file and normally will not present.

    You can check its contents with a text editor (right click: 'Open with'; do not double-click).
    The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

    You can remove the user.js file if you do not create this file yourself.

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    Windows hides certain default file extensions.
    Among them .html and .txt, so you can see only a file name without .ini and .js file extension.
    You can see the type of actual file (file extension) in the properties of the file via the context menu in Windows Explorer.

    • What you have already tried to solve the problem all right, people, it's really weird.  Just surfing the net and a few page popped up a window, Windows defender, either real or double window that seemed to be some kind of virus scan running and find all kinds of infections.  Search on my drive for files of virus claimed, however, nothing found.  Zone alarm has warned that a program named av.exe was trying to access various resources, which I refused him permission to do.  I closed the browser and activate zonealarm internet lock.  Now, by clicking on any desktop icon rather began the av.exe program, same as before.  I used the Task Manager to end.  Finally, I found the file av.exe, a hidden file in the documents and settings/Peter/application data / directory and deleted.  So now, either by clicking on any application, destop, or the menu, including the Panel, appears a window wondering what program I want to use to open the file, or a warning that no file association is defined for the file.  Linking screen for the Windows Explorer file reports assoiations appropriate for all files, but does not list the exe or com all file extensions.  Attempt to add them (abandoned) presented a screen that windows already knew they were applications.  So now I'm at a loss.  This little beastie hurt not only managed to get by zone alarms various filters and screens, but itself installed and screwed with stuff.  I can't start applications normally.  To right click and use "start" from the pull down.  And some processes that are expected to be called by other programs to run into the same problem, so do not work.  I ran a system restore (had to do it from safe mode to make it work) for a few days, before this problem, but it doesn't fix it.  Nor, do one of the registry scanners I ran to try to find errors.  found a bunch, but the problem remains.
    • I'm puzzled.  What should do?   How can I reset windows to know that an exe file "opening" means to run the program?    Oh, and at this point, restart now does not start most of the things that are supposed to start on a startup, zone alarm, mouse drivers, etc..  Even the appearance of the taskbar has changed its background color blue back...

  • I switched to Firefox 3 days. When I did, he asked if I want to 'save' or 'run '. I clicked on "Save". Was I suppose to click on 'run '.

    I followed the instructions to the latest update of Firefox and the image said to click on "Run", but the only option I have is to 'save '. Do I delete Firefox and download again and click on 'run '.

    If you think that the program did not update properly or not act properly.
    You can always go to Mozilla.org and download the full installer. After you download your program, then you can run it yourself. I always save the
    program so that I don't have to download it again if I need it.

    Unfortunately, it seems the new sounds of notification of mail for all folders. He's wasting my time to stop what I'm doing in order to check mail in NON-priority records.

    Example: I was warned just for an e-mail to my "junk e-mail" folder

    If this can be done now, it must be. It should be an option to set prevent or notify for each individual file.
