  Dear Stephanie Podder,

  Thank you for your kind suggestions that unfortunately has not resolved

  the problem I was experiencing. It seems that then I uninstalled the software that has been

  supplied with the notebook, I inadvertently deleted the batch files used by the action of pinning.

  To solve the problem I factory reset my computer laptop and installed advanced Uninstaller

  Pro who doesn't remove all files/folders of programs being uninstalled.

  This experience has reinforced the need to create a clone for backup of

  my laptop on an external drive on a regular basis.

  I now have mannaged to get programs/webpages pinned to the taskbar

  and the start list and happy to announce all now run correctly. Not having not windows disk their

  not now supplied with new laptops, I was unable to use"scannow" to correct the missing files.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You can do this, but we need to change the registry. If you are comfortable with editing the registry, see the following documentation.

• I have century link for my internet and they put sort of a Qwest tab that opens every time I open firefox. How can I get rid of him?

  I downloaded a link that Qwest offered to do my upgrade to 10 GB soft windows. After that download is when the additional tab Qwest appeared. It is not listed as my home page and I deleted the download but I still get the tab everytime I open Firefox and I want to get rid of it.

  If the page does not appear when you call a new window (Ctrl + n) or click on the Home button, it could be incorporated into the shortcut you use to start Firefox. You can check a shortcut from the desktop/taskbar changed as follows:

  • Shortcut on the desktop: right-click on the icon, choose Properties
  • Icon taskbar pinned: clic click right on the icon, right click in Mozilla Firefox, click on properties

  Windows normally selects the shortcut tab. If this is not the case, go ahead and click on the shortcut tab.

  The target line do not need anything after this part:

  • Windows 64-bit, standard 32-bit Firefox: "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.
  • Windows 64-bit, 64-bit Firefox test: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
  • 32-bit Windows: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"

  If all URLS are listed after this, claire them and save your changes. To test, you can:

  • Shortcut on the desktop: double-click the icon to launch a new window
  • Icon taskbar pinned: right-click on the icon, click Mozilla Firefox to open a new window

  If you get only your homepage, it worked.

• I have firefox I put in player17.0.0 flash and I can't see vidios on utube or play games on facebook or zynga. Why not? What should I do?

  When I was asked to update my flash player, so I did, I was playing farm town 2 on Zynga. When I did, I went to play my game and the image would not return. The site came, but the game would not load completely so that I can play the game. I'm went on You tube to play music videos and the videos would not play. I went to my WWE network to see if I could look at him and I could not watch anything there either. I can not even play my games book face. I loaded and unloaded flashplayer at least a dozen times or more, and I still can't get anywhere. I can also do not charge any old version of flash player. What should I do?

  First of all, unfortunately, pop-up message on the Flash updates while you visit Web sites can often install malware. If you notice any strange behavior then please complete your plan of regular safety with some freedom to scan/cleaning of the tools listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware.

  Secondly, your "more details of the system" does not show the 'Shockwave Flash' plugin, so it can be disabled. You can check on the page modules, either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

  In the left column, click on Plugins. Search for "Shockwave Flash", and if you find it, change permission to 'never activate' to 'ask to activate '.

  If the plugin is not there, you can check the following folder to see if you find this file on the system:

  File: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
  File: NPSWF32_17_0_0_188.dll

  I also noticed something odd: you said Windows 7, but your Firefox means Windows XP. Could clear you any parameter of backward compatibility on your shortcut to Firefox. Here's how, either:

  • Right click of your Firefox shortcut on the desktop > properties
  • right click on your icon of Firefox taskbar pinned > Mozilla Firefox right-click > properties

  In this dialog box, open the Compatibility tab and make sure that nothing is settled here, so Firefox can take full advantage of Windows 7.

• How to remove an item from the start menu in Windows 7?

  I tried to install a game written for an earlier version of Windows.  It did not work, but when I uninstalled the program, he left an icon in my Start menu.  I can't find a way to delete the item in my Start menu.

  If I click on the link, I get a message that says that this is not a valid Win32 application.

  If I right click on the link, I get options:
  Play
  Run as administrator
  More games from Microsoft
  Support
  PIN to the taskbar
  PIN to Start Menu
  Sort by name

  I miss the opportunity, we usually need to change the Menu start manually!

  I did all that, although I had to 'Show hidden files' in two different places, but the guarded program reappear, even after that I deleted everything that I could find that had "Lemmings" in there.  I had installed the program on the D drive and I could delete it, but the next time I saw the Start Menu, it would put a file on drive D named Lemmings Revolution.exe (with no data in this document, 0 bytes).

  I tried the support link from Microsoft and the thought that should work, but alas, I didn't have the product code to enter the FixIt program when asked.

  I finally took a huge risk Open regedit and then sought to any occurrence of the word "Lemmings".  I deleted everything in the registry that referenced "Lemmings", then returned to the D drive (in the command prompt) and deleted the above programme, after that I restarted my computer.

  So far, it seems to have solved the problem...

  (I knew after you remove some of the registry keys, one of the contained key code product I could entered the FixIt program, but by then I had already made changes.)

  Thanks to everyone who tried to help me!

• Taskbar Windows opens a "separate" tab when opening the program pinned broweser

  I recently installed firefox because it does not lack when it comes to the display of kanji.
  But there is a strange thing happening. I pinned my firefox on my windows task bar. When I open firefox to the pinned shortcut, it opens a "separate" tab in my taskbar. No other program never did.
  Do you have any idea what is happening?

  I added a picture to show what I mean

  Thanks for any help you can provide.

  Open Firefox. The icon on the left, make a right click and delete it.
  Now the other one, Pin it. Turn it back on.

• Firefox won't be the default browser for a user and pins himself to the taskbar

  On my Windows 7 PC parents, Firefox always said my mother is not the default browser (giving him the possibility to make sure) and then when closing, he pinned himself to the task bar.

  I checked and Firefox to default programs "has its flaws. I tried to get IE by default and then back to Firefox but the problem persists. The PC has no other browsers on it. Clicklinks in Thunderbird cause Firefox open, there'S no so it seems as if it is actually the default.

  When Firefox is closed it still pin himself to the taskbar. I can detach it and when it closes, it is still there.

  Search on Google, I have a suspicion that pinning occurs when the default configuration of Firefox. I also have a suspicion that something is wrong with the default for HTTP as it does not exist as a protocol to control custom Programs\Set Associations

  I have it solved!

  The command "Firefox.exe - silent - setDefaultBrowser" seems to have restored the HTTP protocol in control custom Programs\Set Associations.

  I found this command on http://kb.mozillazine.org/Setting_Your_Default_Browser#Force_Firefox_to_make_itself_the_default

  Thank you!
