Spinning Blue Circle

How to make the blue circle windows stop circling and flashing (its next to the cursor/arrow)

CC

It's exactly like computers to tell you he's busy.  If your system has been upgraded, or has little RAM or too many open applications, you'll get this.

The only way to get rid of it is to know what is the cause by eliminating one above both.

  • How to get rid of spinning blue circle that appears when I click on the screen icon

    When I move the cursor on the scoreboard at the bottom of the screen, arrow disappears and spinning blue circle appears. When I move the slider arrow icon on the display, the arrow disappears and blue circle appears, but it also no longer allows me to click on an icon or open any folder.

    I can not also open taskbar to see what programs might be running that shouldn't be.

    The problem that I now had 12 hours. Happened after PC off after the installation of windows updates (but of course I do not see what were these updates, because I can't open the files!

    can you help me?

    see you soon

    Hello Kostas2005,

    Your system seems to be something to load all the time after an update.

    You can run a system restore to remove updates that are causing problems.

    This will bring the system back to when everything worked correctly without affecting your personal files.

    Here is a link on how to do a restore.

    By clicking on the White Star congratulations on the left is a way of saying thanks!

    I would like to know how everything goes.

    Nice day.

    How to repair spinning blue circle on the network icon at the start of /wake of sleep

    I get that occasionally. Never really found a "real" solution The best that works for me (in general) is to disable the device (network and sharing center - Center change the settings of the card) and then turn it on again or run the troubleshooting (right click on the network icon and "solve problems"). Usually, either one works for me, but unfortunately not always.

    Have you tried to update the drivers for the network device, this can also sometimes help.

    If you normally connect manually to your network, some argue that defining what it connects automatically helps (click on network icon - right click on your connection real connection tab - properties)

    I hope that someone may know a real difficulty.

  • Blue circle busy spinning of all time

    Hi, I just bought a new laptop with Windows 7. The only thing I've changed since I bought it was the installation of the Office Package and anti-virus. They work very well and everything worked fine. All of a sudden, the busy blue circle guard turns all the time. The interesting part is that the computer works perfectly. I mean, while the circle turns blue I can work normally, but it bothers me place to continue to see this circle to let me know that the system is busy, somehow. If I let the computer stopped, with what whether it of running, nothing open and place the mouse to the center of my office, the mouse kept switching between normal and the blue circle occupied. I don't understand what could be so busy computer, but at this moment, I don't feel any lack of performance. I thought it might be a virus or something, but scanning the computer does nothing weird. I saw in the Task Manager and there is nothing weird on top of my apps too. Any idea?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Use the startup clean and other methods to try to determine the cause of and eliminate problems.

    References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

    What antivirus/antispyware/security products do you have on the machine? Be one you have NEVER
    on this machine, including those you have uninstalled (they leave leftovers behind which can cause
    strange problems).

    ===========================================

    Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
    above is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
    found)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

    Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
    programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method
    first.

  • Windows 7 64 bit MCE Spinning question blue circle

    OS: Windows 7 64 bit on my HTPC.

    MediaBrowser running inside MCE for the Organization and appearance of my HTPC

    We leave the HTPC on 24/7.  If we look at a movie on the HTPC, it works perfectly.  If we close not the film down and leave running, next time we try to watch a movie or do whatever it is we get the blue circle without end ring that turns and continues to turn until we completely stop/restart the computer.  Just out of MCE and MediaBrowser does not help.  A reboot is required.  We have posted this question in the forum of MediaBrowser and they said it's a MCE/Windows problem... Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello

    Thanks for asking!

    When you watch movies in the HTPC (Home Theater PC), the system crashes.

    The problem occurs all using the standard video option or only when you use the tile MediaBrowser?

    Third-party programs may cause the problem.

    To check, I suggest you to put the computer in a clean boot state and check the cause of the issue.

    Clean boot:

    When the computer starts to boot, programs non-Microsoft will not be started and would avoid any interruption of their share.

    Check out the link:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: once you are done with the boot, follow step 3 in the article to restore your computer to normal startup.

    Note: If in case, you are connected via a connection wireless, and then when you start the System Configuration utility to perform the clean boot, click Startup and Services tab one time and check wireless see corresponding section are checked (enabled).

    I hope this helps. If the problem persists, or if you need help with any problem of Windows to the future, let us know and we would be happy to help you.

  • Weird with the blue circle bar appeared above the tabs

    HI - last night, shortly after (not sure how long exactly) after installing Silverlight - direct on the preferred video amazon site, a strange white bar with a blue circle ringed appeared above my tabs in the browser. I do not think that it appeared directly after the installation of Silverlight, but some time later - during which I was on and off my computer - it 'appeared '...

    Here is a picture:
    http://imgur.com/WezuIoV

    And a mode of incognito, that shows something, but I do not know what...
    http://imgur.com/MlhJKbt

    I tried to disable the silverlight plug - nothing; I tried to play around with the Settings toolbar - nothing; then I restarted with modules disabled (in the Help menu) and it disappeared. But then when I restared in normal mode - it was always there... I need to reset (which probably do disappear, but I want to know what caused it)? Can I have some sort of bug? I'd be worried, virus (maybe it is excessive; I'm on a mac, but...)?

    Thanks for any help

    I fell on this particular issue so the other day. It turned out not to be any of my extensions the cause, but instead, it was a theme called "Default Mod" (which was updated to version 28 February 27). I've downgraded to version 27.1 and the blue circle went.

    EDIT: Looking at your screenshot, it seems that use you the default theme Mod as well, so it's most likely the problem.

  • After the 24 Firefox update, Windows 7 64-bit breaks on reboot. The network in the taskbar icon is not ready (blue circle stopped).

    After 24 of Firefox update, Windows 7 breaks after the reboot. The network in the taskbar icon is not ready (blue circle on the wireless network icon). But I can't do much. I can't open the network and sharing Center (never opened). Even the Task Manager hangs when I click to show processes from all users. I have to do a system restore for a network working again. I never even launched Firefox.

    Wow... I finally have the solution. Windows updates have been applied at the same time I updated Firefox. Bluetooth driver is what broke (which is part of the Centrino wireless). I ended up installing the latest driver from Intel, Windows Update, and then update Firefox... and all is well.

    I thank very you much for all your help. Take care.

  • blue circle

    I have a laptop windows 8.  When I open my files and click on remove etc. a blue circle appears at least 10 minutes

    and I can't do anything else.  It appears every time so I can't remove all files.

    Thank you

    I'm afraid I don't know of an easy way to deal with this, if the problem is what I think. The fix requires that you scan the registry for shell extensions and manually find and disable the bad context menu Manager, not Microsoft. It is a bit of a process, but not horribly complicated - if you look beyond the words and just take the process step by step, I bet you can do.

    For background information, the context menu is what appears when you right click on an element in the file Explorer. If there is something wrong with the context menu Manager, it will be wrong to show or be impossible to display the controls that you used to see - copy, paste, delete, etc. In your case, it is suspended and then crashing.

    I found another website that describes the hotfix, but much more in detail and I hope more easy to understand. Refer to method #2.

    First remove the hard drive as the culprit in the hang ups and delays. When starting the laptop type press F2 to enter the HP Diagnostics and start a test of expanses of hard drive. It can take more than 2 hours. If the test succeeds, to focus on the software. go to msconfig, Startup tab, check turn off all startup programs, click on apply. It also seems that you need to update your graphics driver. do this at hp.com http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html or go to the site of graphics card manufacturer. I hope that your Windows updates are also underway. You have a lot of problems, if it is not related to a hard disk problem, full recovery would solve most of them.
