• Bug in the Windows 7 calculator

  There is a basic bug in the calculator of windows 7 (only in the standard display)

  Equation 1 + 2 * 3 the answer 9.
  In fact, the answer should be 7.
  If we play a little, we discover that he is simply performing operations on from left to right, and failing to perform the multiplication and division before addition and subtraction.
  If I try the same equation in scientific display or programmer, you get the right answer (7)

• How can we make the greatest Windows 7 calculator keys?

  It would be great comfort that we have the possibility to enlarge the buttons of windows 7 calculator. Personally, I'd rather have each button size 2 cm by 2cm.

  Most of the people not to click on the buttons, they just type the numbers on their keyboard instead.

  You can increase the size of all the buttons, including the Calculator buttons, if you want to.  To give this a try and see if you like, follow these steps:
  1 type dpi in your Start menu.
  2 - Click on the option that appears called make text and other items more or less
  3. fix the size you want, then click on apply to test.  You can always cancel it if you don't like it.

• Firefox window becomes invisible when I try to restore the window size (larger works very well)

  When I run Firefox, the window is invisible. Maximize it works, but when I try to restore it to the previous size it becomes invisible.

  I had this problem with other applications, and then it was the position of the stored window which was damaged.

  I looked in the registry to see if the position of the window is stored there, but could not find it there.

  You can use JavaScript to fix the problem and Firefox 7.0.1 did move or resize windows with JavaScript almost impossible. You can configure your bookmark and change in about: config then only magnified, but you will need to read the notes at the bottom of the article about Firefox 7.

  Summary of the steps in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resizing_oversize_window

  1. use 'Alt + SPACEBAR' in Windows to maximize active window
  2. Change services.sync.prefs.sync.dom.disable_window_move_resize to use fake subject: config
  3. Create a bookmarklet (bookmark with JavaScript) having a

     location javascript:self.resizeTo (1024, screen.availHeight); self.moveTo(screen.availWidth-1024,0);

     (1024, so reduce the width of your screen is less than 1024)

  4. Next topic: config should be the active tab
  5. Invoke the bookmark directly from your Favorites (with Firefox 7.0.1 you can no longer call JavaScript or a shortcut keyword with Javascript since the location bar involving move/resize).

• What is the Windows Security Center and is compatible with Avast antivirus Protection?

  I installed a paid for version of Avast on my Windows XP computer. (I won't be upgrading to a more modern version of Windows.)

  I also called Windows Security Center.

  Is the Windows Security Center virus protection, or is it simply a place to control and discover whatever you have antivirus protection?

  If it is a virus protection, it would hurt Avast and if so can I uninstall it?

  If I removed Avast and didn't have Windows Security Center, I should any type of protection against viruses on my computer?

  The only type of protection against viruses in addition to Avast, I am sure that I have on my computer is Windows Firewall. I turned that off and am now strictly protected by the firewall of Avast. Windows Security Center notifies me of cannot have two firewalls upwards at the same time.

  If Windows Security Center antivirus protection it would do no harm to leave it on if the firewall is disabled and Avast is installed? Part of Windows Firewall Security Center Windows or another program?

  Guesses are welcome. Thank you.

  Hey there Clinton!

  I've identified two questions here, your normal text questions and my answers in bold:

  Is the Windows Security Center virus protection, or is it simply a place to control and discover whatever you have antivirus protection?

  Windows Security Center is not a virus protection it's just simply a place to control and view the status of the installation of malware * protection software, but also the firewall on your computer.

  Part of Windows Firewall Security Center Windows or another program?

  Windows Firewall is a separate component.

  Does Avast! Damaged, if I have another antivirus running program?

  It is not clear what might happen, but software may conflict with each other and may not work as expected.

  I hope that I have answered all your questions!
  Sincerely,

• Remember the positions of the windows

  Good if I'll really go back in time, I think remember me on 3 window... something that you could say it remember the window position, so he opened in the same place every time.

  I use a wide screen and open several applications at the same time.

  Is it possible to 'say' an app to open at a certain position on the screen. That is to say that I love my calculator to be always down, but it opens up on the left.

  See you soon

  Hello PaulGibbs,

  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

  This happens with all of your applications, or just calculator?

  Windows stores the location where you close your application and opens the next time in this place. However, there are third party software that may interfere with this process.

  Try to perform a clean boot:

  Step 1: Perform a clean boot

   

  Note If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.

  ·          Log the computer by using an account with administrator rights.

  ·          Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

  ·          On the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the check box load startup items. (The check box use the file Boot is not available.)

  ·          Under the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.

  Note Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.

  ·          Click OK and then click on restart.

  Step 2: Enable half the services

  ·          Follow steps 1a and 1B to start the System Configuration utility.

  ·          Click the Services tab, and then click to select the skin all the Microsoft services checkbox.

  ·          Click to select half of the check boxes in the Service list.

  ·          Click OK and then click on restart.

  Step 3: Determine whether the problem returns

  If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have initially enabled in the Service list.

  If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the Service list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

  If only one service is selected in the list of services, and you the problem persists, the service selected the cause of the problem. Go to step 6. If no service is causing this problem, go to step 4.

  Step 4: Enable half of the startup items

  Perform a clean boot by repeating step 1.

  Click the Startup tab, and then click to select half of the check boxes in the startup item list.

  Click OK and then click on restart.

  Step 5: Determine whether the problem returns

  If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have originally selected in the startup item list.

  If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the startup item list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

  If only one startup item is selected in the startup item list, and you still experience the problem, start selected in the list element is the service that is causing the problem. Go to step 6.

  If no startup item causes this problem, a Microsoft service most likely the cause of the problem. To determine which Microsoft service may be causing the problem, repeat step 1 and step 2 without selecting the hide all Microsoft services check box in each step.

  Step 6: Resolve the problem

  After you determine the startup item or the service that is causing the problem, contact the manufacturer of the program to determine if the problem can be solved. Or, run the System Configuration utility, and then click to clear the check box of the element of the problem.

  Step 7: Reset the computer to start as usual

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to restart restart the computer to start as usual:

  ·          Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

  ·          On the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

  ·          When you are prompted to restart the computer, click Restart.Collapse this includes this image

• Phone call claiming to be from the Windows team

  I just received a phone call claiming to be from the Windows team in Ontario (Canada) saying that my computer was downloading tons of things on the web, and it had infected and it was my computer.  I'm guessing it's a scam?

  Fake phone calls to technical support

  Calls unrequested telephone of this nature are almost always a common scam. Do not let them give any info, do not give access to your PC, not give them all the money and do not go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment.

  Please see:

  http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/security/online-privacy/msname.aspx .

  Microsoft issues never not solicited for phone calls of support or security.

  These types of callers can use completely fictitious names or bogusly claim to be of real companies other than Microsoft as well.

• .exe files are not open; affected by the Windows Security Center of lazy virus

  Hello!

  As the title indicates, none of my executables will open his; on the contrary, when I click on an icon or similar function (as in the start menu), I'm inclined to the screen 'open with... ». I noticed that most often, if I run the program as administrator, it is likely to work without having to manually find the file - still a bit tedious however.

  I'm assuming that since I was recently hit by the virus which is a fake Windows Security Center, something my registry has also been hit (take into account the fact that I'm not savvy computer in the slightest). It happened on my user account initial and rather than take action on the right, then, I decided that I would use the other account that I had to install a program better anti-virus (Norton provided ISP) than the one I had been using (the two admin). At that point, I had finished all my activity moved to the new account and it worked very well until the virus had one possessing this account as well - delete on the first user account seemed to have deleted only the effects of my account but still affected everything I did after that. This time, I went and deleted all accounts and checked to ensure that it is not at all. After getting rid of the virus, it's the same thing: none of my .exe files will open without using the monitor "open with...". ». I'm not really sure what action to take from here, I have not done much to remedy the situation, and I'm going right through the screen of "open with...". "to get to what whatever - so any suggestions or help would be very appreciated.

  Keypoints:

  • .exe files are not open (However, in some cases, the "Run as Administrator" option overrides it)
  • recently hit with (deleted) and fake Windows Security Center virus ; That's when the .exe is no longer
  • is not much in terms of addressing this problem, do not know what to do with regard to the question of if my situation calls for something specific

  I tried to cover everything that seemed important to address; However, if there is more need information, let me know. I am about average in terms of computer navigation and therefore my understanding of what many of these commands, functions and files is a bit Basic.

  Thank you! :)

  Thanks for the very comprehensive post. Run the Doug Knox fix (that isn't a .exe that you can do this).

  Microsoft has none of the unsolicited telephone calls to help you fix your computer

  In this type of scam cybercriminals are calling you and claim to be of Support technique Microsoft. They offer help with your computer problems. Once scammers have earned your trust, they try to steal and damage your computer with malicious software, including viruses and spyware.

  Although the law enforcement can trace phone numbers, often authors use pay telephones, disposable cell phones or stolen cellular phone numbers. Better avoid fooling themselves rather than try to repair the damage afterwards.

  Treat all unsolicited sceptically telephone calls. Don't provide personal information.

  If you receive an unsolicited call from someone who claims to be from Technical Support Microsoft, hang up. We do not have such calls.
