Sticky notes do not work / missing

The Sticky Notes app will not work. It's like a missing program or something. Its supposed to be C:\windows\system32\stikynot.exe, but it isn't here. The shortcut is always in the Accessories folder, but it does not work. I scanned my computer with two anti-virus programs and nothing was found.

Honestly I don't remember when it started not to work and to be absent.

  • Satellite P305D-S8828 keyboard missing my typing and FN + F9 does not work

    Hello everyone.

    I'm new on this forum. Im sorry for my bad English right now. I hope I can explain my problems.
    I just bought a laptop computer to the United States with a great price. It's a great laptop, but there are 2 problems and they have big problems of r for me.
    It's Toshiba Satalite P305D-S8828 which is not available in europe, only sell in the United States.
    This is the link:
    http://explore.Toshiba.com/laptops/satellite/p300/P305D-S8828

    Laptop keyboard seems kind and gentle and good typing, but especially on a msn messenger box or forum page response, when I type, he's missing part of my typings? I mean, I used to use my quick keyboard, but it's like he's not pressing all the buttons, but I really rely on the letters. So the things I write are mixed, not understandable cos of lack of the letters.

    This isn't my first laptop. I used a bit more before, but nothing like this has happened before.
    It doesn't always happen, but generally occurs.
    I don't know what to do and this really do my head.
    I use Vista Ultimate Turkish. Don't you think that it is an OS problem? Or maybe the bios? More later (v1.90) I heard the same problem happened to some Fujitsu Siemens laptops, but it has been resolved with a bios upgrade. I hope you understand my problem and someone help me.

    My second problem is that my FN + F9 (function key) does not work. But some of them work, like FN + F1, FN + F2, FN + F3... work but FN + F9 does NOT work? :(
    I want to disable the touchpad when I plug my usb mouse, but I can't do it using FN + F9. My touchpad driver is installed and my OS is Vista Ultimate. Could you help me for that too?

    I hope that answering my questions.
    Thank you now
    all the loves of Turkey
    EMRAH

    Go to the Toshiba site us and download the latest version of the BIOS. Having the latest version of the BIOS is important on the new models.

    For the issue of the Touchpad, download and install the latest package of added value for the P305D and reinstall the driver from the Touchpad.
    If you have installed the drivers for your mouse USB (for example drivers Logitech or Microsoft), remove them. They may be in conflict with the Touchpad

    The STRANGE ('TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS - L632H ATA Device") does not work on my laptop more.

    In Device Manager, the Properties dialog box says "Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) »

    Is it possible to find the drivers somewhere? (I can use google, but I don't know if driver download sites are trustworthy).

  • The CD/DVD drive malfunction: one missing, the other does not work

    My HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop running Vista, came with a CD/DVD drive that appeared as a reader of CD (e) and (f) HD DVD player, with the hard drive and windows repair partition C: and D:.  There, the E: drive seemed to have disappeared, and it is the reader who would access it when I put a CD to read from.  The HD player never worked to this end and of course now that I only have the "F:" drive, and it tells me to insert a disc, despite the fact that there is a disc in there.  And I have no idea of what I did.

    I right click on the HD drive properties and go to the Hardware tab.  WDC (Buncha numbers) ATA device is listed as type of hard drives, and UTIHAX (even numbers) SCSI CdRom Device is listed as a DVD/CD-ROM drives drive (Yes, with the ').  Both work properly, according to the properties of the device.

    I tried to disable and re-enable the it.  I tried to uninstall and allow the pilot to resettle.  Nothing doin ' sofar, so I was wondering if any of you have any other ideas I could try.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

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

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
