• I can't change anything in the control panel. My computer says I may have not sufficient permissions to access the item.

  We have tried everything we can think of changing the time in our computer.  Whenever we click on the small box in the lower right corner, he says - "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.  May not permissions to access you the item.  In addition, we are unable to add or remove programs or making changes through the control panel.  Help

  All the problems you describe are problems that could occur if the user that you are connected without administrator privileges.  The quick check of administrator privileges must right click on the button 'start '.  If "Open All Users" is one of the choices that appear, then you have administrator privilege.  Otherwise, you must connect to your machine like the built-in 'administrator' or a user in the group "Administrators".

  Assuming that you have administrator privileges, things get more complicated.  User rights can be granted or denied to any user - even administrators - by group policy.  If you are an administrator and you have XP Pro, then you might be able to check or change the user rights by using the Group Policy Editor (from-> Run-> "gpedit.msc").  Search in the:

  Computer configuration-> Windows settings-> security settings-> local policies-> user rights

  path.  One of these user rights is "Change the System Time".  If your XP Pro machine was never part of a domain, I would consider also running a program anti-malware on your system.

  If you have XP Home Edition, you don't have the Group Policy Editor.  You will need to check / adjust / modify your user rights by using the command line program "NTRights" provided with the Resource Kit.  Problems like that with XP Home would raise my suspicions that you have a malware infestation.

• Cannot access control panel or Windows updates and not more sound

  Yesterday, I restarted my computer and a message keeps popping up that I am victim of software counterfeiting (in reference to Microsoft Windows) when I bought the computer at Future Shop just a year ago. Also, now there is a red X on the speaker icon in the corner and said "no audio output device is installed". I followed the instructions mentioned in another post, as well as other Web sites, and nothing seems them works. Above everything else, I can not access the control panel. It appears and disappears immediately. If this were not already enough, Windows Update does not work or the other. The icon is there, but whenever I click on it, nothing happens.
  I only bought the computer a year ago, and there is already a long list of problems with it. I'm at the end of my rope! If someone is brave enough to tackle these problems, I would really appreciate it. Thank you!

• How to remove the Yahoo? I followed the steps to remove the Control Panel, but the site is still there and in my toolbar.

  For weeks I tried to get rid of Yahoo from my computer.  I deleted it - or so I thought - by using the option remove in the Control Panel, but Yahoo icon is still on my toolbar, and when I click on it and now I get redirected to the Yahoo site!  What should I do to get rid of this unwanted program?

  Hello

  Which toolbar do you speak? Internet Explore toolbar or some other?

  If it is internet explorer, the problem goes away if you run internet explore without modules, probably accessible from Start - (all the) Programs - Accessories - System Tools.

  Hi gazza.

  Scan your computer for malware and try to remove it.

  You can use the Microsoft Safety Scanner to do the same.

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  Unfortunately, when a system is infected the best way to ensure that everything has been deleted is to perform a clean installation.

  One thing I would recommend is that make you a Reset of Firefox. The reset Firefox feature can solve a lot of problems in restaurant Firefox to its factory default condition while saving your vital information.
  
  Note: This will make you lose all the Extensions and preferences.

  • Sites Web open is not recorded in less than 25 versions of Firefox.

  To reset Firefox, perform the following steps:

  1. Go to Firefox > help > troubleshooting information.
  2. Click on the button 'Reset Firefox'.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is finished, it will display a window with the imported information. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox opens with all the default settings applied.

  Information can be found in the article Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons .

  To be sure that he's gone completely, make a check of malware with some malicious programs, analysis of the programs on the Windows computer.
  
  Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
  
  All of these programs have free versions.

  Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

• How to: using the same control panel for several vi and reproducing change to the control panel.

  I created a labview project that contains about 40 vi.  Each vi has a joint control panel which is a group of ip address, or address of the port and the parameters that are passed high-level vi at low level vi for the purpose of control and access our daq cards.  As this control panel exists in all the vi and must not be the same there is a problem when the need to make a change or update the controls during development.  The problem is how long it takes to go and change the control panel of each single vi.  I wish I had a way of reproducing a change in the Panel of control through all six simultaneously.

  All controls in the control panel are in a bundle, so all values are passed to 1 thread.

  I tried to turn the Panel in a sub vi and this way I can just "create control" and have output parameters maniuplate vi, but if I update the vi, I still have to go back and create a new control for each vi under the control has changed.

  I tried using secondary and the creation of the control panel in a sub vi which is displayed in the secondary, but gives the undesirable consequence of not being able to view or change the settings of the control panel if the program does not work, as pristine as when sub-panels program does not work.

  Is there a another way to display the front panel of a Subvi next using a panel of void?  Is there a better way to propagate changes in a bundle in a series of vi?

  Yes a def type might help you and I would take the next step to make a strict type def if you want the look to be the same on all its bodies. You can also view this nugget on Type definitions for more idea about it.

  Have fun

• How to enable and disable the part of the "control panel".

  I want to know if part of the control panel can be turned on and off by an external action, to use the mouse or a Boolean variable. Someone has an idea that help color? Thank you

  Ricardo

  You can disable cookies by using the node property and ownership "Disabled". You can create a tab control and disable the entire tab control that will disable all inside of it.

  To do this programmatically, set up your code with a structure of the event and create an event when the user changes the value of a button or click the mouse.

  See the example I did:
