The mouse opens several windows on click & cannot copy or paste in the Windows XP computer.

Original title: I am running XP and I have problems with my mouse.

I use a Gateway 510 series computer and has a real problem with the mouse. If I click once, I often bring up several windows. Some existing time windows will disappear and not selected windows appear. Copy and paste are almost impossible to do. On the Panel, I tried to click up and down speed adjustment with nothing doesn't. It is especially annoying on the internet using IE8 and Firefox. Can anyone offer possible solutions?

It turns out that my mouse was bad. My brother had a spare and gave it to me to try. Which corrects the problem. Thank you for your response.

  • Is it possible to open several windows in firefox 5.0? I can't do windows quick launch and the right click "open in a new window" does nothing.

    Yes, not much more to say. Since I've upgraded to firefox 5.0, I opened several windows. Several tabs to work, but I don't like tabs. Help, please.

    See if they work in Mode safe mode, which is very easy to test Firefox 5.

    Safe mode: to appear in safe mode, a time when you do not not tick the subjects (they are definitely not safe). Help ('Alt + H") >"restart with disabled modules. If there is no problem then it is almost certainly of an extension.

    If it works, try to find the addon (s) causing the problem.

    1. Disable half of the extensions and restart Firefox. At this point, you are no longer using safe and test extensions.
    2. If the problem persists, disable half of the other extensions

    If it does not work select last half of people disabled
    Then restart. and check again at step 2.

    In case of failure to isolate the problem return answer and so resolute mark thread as resolved.

  • Open several windows

    I try to open several windows on my desktop and am not able to do.  To clarify: I can open internet explore and have several new tabs display and can change from tab to tab.  What I can't do, is show more than one tab at a time.  I found the bar downstairs which let me windows cascading, or tiles.  I am just not able to have more than one window at a time.  I was able to do this on Windows vista, but window8 is more confusing to me and I want it to be my friend and be able to do much more.  Thank you

    Hello

    You need to open the websites that you want to display side by side or cascading in a new window, not a new tab.

    You can only do this if you use the desktop version of IE.

    1. open Internet Explorer by using the IE icon on the taskbar. Open a Web site in this window.

    2. If you have a link to open a second site, right-click on the link and select open in a new window. If you do not have a connection, right-click the icon in the taskbar of IE and click on Internet Explorer and it will open a new window. You can type the address for the second site, or use Favorites to open the website of the second in this window.

    3. Once you have the sites open in different windows on the screen, right-click on the taskbar and select Cascade Windows, show windows stacked, or show windows side by side.

    If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.

    • Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

  • When I run IE9, trying to open several windows, but never accually do open. No acually Web site is in place.

    When I tried to open IE9 several Windows IE tried to launch. More than 2-14 windows all at once. She is never resolved and no window opens in fact. But it tops out at all my memory and locks every thing upwards. Even try to use to close the Task Manager does not always work. The last appearance was I downloaded a zip file to open it in Internet Explorer, and when I clicked it several windows attempted to open at the same time. I did a scan for viruses with Avira and it was clean except for a single file that had a warning could not open. the file is "iw91POnz.exe". and was located in the: C:\users\Rick\AppData\Local\Temp\iw91POnz.exe. (This is defined as a "file ROOM" - size 8.57 MB. No idea where it came from or what it's attached too.) I deleted the my laptop OK boot file and everything seems to work OK.
    Any thoughts on this is appreciated.

  • Open several Windows Calculator in Windows 8

    Thank you

    Hello

    If you use multiple instances of the calculator often, it would be a good idea to simply pin the Calaculator to the taskbar.

    Open the calculator.

    Right-click on the taskbar, the icon of calculator and select Pin to the taskbar.

    Every time that you start a new instance of the calculator, right click on taskbar icon tasks, and then click Calculator.

  • Current document only - AA wants to open several windows

    It's fricken driving me crazy - I want AA to open several documents in the SAME WINDOW

    I unchecked "current Document only" and it has not changed in opeing up to several docs in multiple windows.

    That's what this command is supposed to control:

    "Active document only: Specifies if the display is limited to a single PDF file."

    NO - I want that they all open in the SAME WINDOW.

    just as Firefox can open multiple TABS in the same window, I feel like I'm stuck w / IE new or worse I'm stuck w / AA player, in which I can't get windows reduced to only 1 window featuring several open PDF.

    What gives? does anyone else have this problem? does anyone have a solution?

    Thank you.

  • After update when I open Firefox, it opens several windows of Firefox additional 14-17

    After updating to version 6.x of Firefox when I start Firefox it opens multiple windows instead of just a window. It will be open between 14 to 17 additional windows and I have to manully Cross and close each of them.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder.

    Delete the sessionstore.js file [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

    If you see files sessionstore-# .js with a number in the left part of the name as sessionstore - 1.js then delete those as well.

    Delete sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and tab groups and opened and closed the tabs (back) to get lost, so you will need to create them again (take note or bookmarks).

  • cannot copy and paste in windows 7

    I can't copy and paste to and from three different applications since the upgrade of Windows Vista 64 - Bit of Windows 7 (64-bit).  These features have worked in applications before the upgrade.  These applications are all WYSIWYG web design programs.  These programs are 1.0 Version of NVU, Kompozer (4 different versions) and Amaya Version 11.3.1. None of the functions work copy and paste in these programs in the normal start to fashion, but all copy and paste functions work properly in these programs when the computer is started in Mode safe mode with network support. I have five different word-processing programs on the computer and I can freely copy and paste without ANY problem between these programs.  I can also copy and paste files into the Windows folder without any problem. However, I can't copy or paste to or from applications of word processing in the three programs that presenting a malfunction.  Can't copy programs with a malfunction in one of the word processors.  Word-processing programs include Wordperfect X 4, Microsoft Word 2000, Microsoft Works 9.0, Windows 7 Notepad and Wordpad in Windows 7.  I disabled the anti virus program and its firewall.  The Windows Firewall is disabled. I run to my firewall and virus CA Security Suite 10.  I also tried to go through all three of the defective programs in each Windows of Windows 98SE Windows Vista SP2 Compatibility Mode.  I called HP Tech support and they had me to remove the following file in the Windows registry:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\appinit_dlls.

    Then, they had me look for a file (plow... or something similar) which is not found in the Windows\System 32 folder.  When this file is not found in the System 32 directory, I am told that I had a problem with MALICIOUS software.  After getting off the phone with them I did a full scan using Windows Defender and it did not find any problem.  After completing the analysis Windows Defender, I ran a full scan of the computer using the program CA Security Suite Virus Scan and it did not find any problem.  It makes no sense to me that copy and paste in these applications will work in Mode safe mode but not in Normal Mode.  As a digression, WordPerfect X 4 caused an error Code 38 when I tried to open it in Mode safe (it works fine in normal mode).

    I understand your concerns. In this case, I'm afraid to say because this content is available to the web browser in line, we can not able to perform the cut dough. If we need to send content limited from the particular email, in this case, you can copy paste the documents to any word in the document then right a new email and send the details according to your requirement.

    Hi Gail,

    At this point, I suggest to launch Internet Explorer and check to see if you are able to copy and paste the content of the emails. If you are able to accomplish the task uisng Internet Explorer, it could be possible that some features of AOL9.5 do not work as expected, and you would like to get in touch with AOL, to solve the problem.

    4 also makes a clean boot

    Please can you help me

    M.R.

    I read a few testimonials online that this can be caused by a damaged or replaced system file.

    Try to start a CMD window (i.e., Run As Administrator) and running: SFC /VERIFYONLY
    If it indicates problems you can use SFC to restore your protected system files: SFC/scannow

    If you have full faith in the Microsoft System File Checker, you can ignore the /VERIFYFILES and just do the second command, because it will check the files and automatically restore any file that has been damaged or replaced.  I saw no reason to be wary of SFC, but I would like to know what's going to happen before it happens.
