Thunderbird 29.5 causes Windows 7 to seek permission "to make changes to this computer.
This has happened only since the upgrade to 29.5. No other version has caused this problem. TBird 29.5 also loses its icon on each new startup get up every morning, but not a restart, requiring a manual purge of the iconcache.db. Why is - what happens to 29.5 and what workaround for these problems?
Re: "Windows 7 permission" to make changes to this computer"". "
In addition to changing the UAC - image settings as shown here:
http://www.PCWorld.com/article/2046046/how-to-fix-your-PCs-worst-annoyances.html
Try this for the specific programmes:
- Go to the shortcut properties Compatibility tab
- Make sure that "Run as Administratror" is NOT checked
- Make sure you check "run in compatibility mode for:" and select "Windows 7"

Why windows will ask permission to allow Skype to make changes to this computer?
Original title: open Skype with windows firewall 7.
When Skype (ver.5.2.60.113) try to open, windows 7 application firewall to allow Skype to make changes to this computer. All Windows Firewall settings are configured to allow Skype. I even made a new rule for "ProgramFiles (x 86) \Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" to be allowed in the inbound and outbound rules, but nothing helps. Is this a bug or a dark environment. I think it happened since Skype last updated.
Hello
I suggest you to change the setting of user account in windows 7 and check if it helps to refer to the article below:
Guided Help: adjust the settings of user account control in Windows 7
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/975787
Also check out the article below
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-are-user-account-control-settings
Warning: User Account Control (UAC) can help you to prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. It works by asking permission when a task requires administrative rights, such as installing software or changing settings affecting other users. We do not recommend disable user account control. If you turn it off, you must reactivate as soon as possible.

Hello
I would be so grateful to know how to fix t his, because it's really getting on my nerves.
I have windows 7 pro 64 bit. I mostly always use firefox. Whenever i opened a new browser, I never got hit with the windows badge and "Do you want this program to make changes to your computer...." or something to that effect. YOu who have windows 7 know what I mean. Of course I click yes, but I NEVER had to do this before. I don't know what changed, what might have happened. I had to have help with some software unrelated to firefox and someone had remote work on my notebook, but he should not have changed browser settings. It is really irritating me to now end to always open the browser now and have to hear that annoying thing and the badge.
My other browsers IE and chrome do not do this.
How can I fix this? It was never the case before for years.
Thank you thank you very much in advance. I can't use this browser if that's going to happen, he finds himself on my nerves.
A possible cause of this message, it is that Firefox is configured to run as administrator.
Make sure that Firefox is not set to run as administrator.
Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".
Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.- Privilege level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
- "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" must not be selected
Also check the firefox.exe program properties in the program Firefox (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) folder.
If you cannot make changes, and then start Windows Explorer as an administrator. -
I click on the firefox icon to open my browser and whenever I do, I get the window asking me if I want mozilla to make changes to my computer... I am so sick of this please help me to stop.
Check that you are not Firefox running as administrator.

Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.- Privilege level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected

I get the message of Windows Activation technologies "this computer is not running Windows" for the last few days. When I click on 'Set online now' it takes me on the Microsoft site and offers I buy the new sofware. My Windows 7 is genuine and has been installed on my Sony Vaio again, so obviously I don't want to buy it again. After reviewing on community support area, I saw that MGADiag generates a report that could help solve the problem and it is copied below. Any help would be welcome.

I have Vista o/s & I am facing this problem. Please tell me the good soultion on it.
Hi Sarang_982,
· When exactly you get the error message you at startup of the computer or when you open any application or when you try to run chkdsk on his machine?
I suggest that you put your computer in a clean boot state, and perform the steps below.
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.
You will need to disable automatic disk check, and then run the disk of the WINRE (Windows Recovery Environment) command prompt check and check if the c: drive error (there) get fixed.
You try to run the audit from WINRE for drive C: disk drive and if it helps. Here are the steps to open the command prompt in Windows RE:
Remove all floppy disks, CDs, and DVDs from your computer and restart your computer by using the power button on the computer.
b. do one of the following:
1. If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you must try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.
2. If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to repair, and then press and hold F8.
c. on the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to select repair your computer and press ENTER. (If your computer is not listed as an option, then your computer doesn't understand no repair preinstalled recovery options, or your network administrator has disabled the.)
d. Select a keyboard layout, and then click Next.
e. in the System Recovery Options menu, click command prompt to open.
f. Type "chkdsk/f" and enter.
g. Type "chkdsk/r" entry.
Check if the HARD drive is encrypted or not if yes then decrypt and see if it works well or not.

I was recently on my computer and running windows 7 with happiness and problem free, until I downloaded a file from the internet. When I opened it, windows asked me if I want to allow this program allow changes. However, there is the rub. When I click on 'Yes', the message will disappear, but the computer hangs at the screen has gone even a light, tinted gray, with all of the programs that are still running in the background. It freezes for about 2 minutes and then decides to return to normal, free for me to return to work and navigation. However, the program that I have originally intended to be performed by him to make changes didn't work at all. Confused, I ran over and over again, but with very little success, and the problem continued to appear. I tried to launch a clean boot, but that doesn't help more. Can someone help me please? Thanks :)
Thank you for the support, but I solved the problem.
I did a system restore, and it seems that a microsoft critical update was the culprit of all this? In any case, everything seems to work now and thanks again for all the support and help, I appreciate it a lot :)

Try installing Windows 7 from XP and keep having this error message before choosing my instalation method, Windows not able to retrieve information about the disks on this computer.
Because the migration from Windows XP to Windows 7 requires a clean install anyway, might as well you are backing up your important files and settings using Windows Easy Transfer and do a custom clean install by booting from the Windows 7 DVD.
