Trash Windows and my computer icon to the Strange (Clunky Colour, icon Not Sharp) research

My Windows computer work and RecycleBin icon and some other icons strange looking, they are not important and their color is weird. How to solve them?

Hello Furqan,

Thanks for posting in Microsoft communities.

If I understand you correctly, you mentioned that some icons in the following locations are changed randomly other icons on a computer that is running. This problem occurs because the icon cache is not updated correctly.

Method 1: Change to Max Cached icons register:

a. close all open windows if a close the Interaction of open programs dialog box appears.

b. you must create the key to register Max Cached Icons and set the value of this key to 2048

 

To do this, follow these steps:

a . Click Start and type Regedit in the search box and click on Regedit in the list

b. locate and select the following key in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ Explorer

c. in the Edit menu, click New, and then click String value

d. type MaxCachedIcons for the name of the registry key and press enter on the keyboard

Double-click the Max Cached Icons registry key and type 2048 in the value data: and then click OK to apply.

f. close the registry Editor.

g. delete IconCache.db, which is located in the following path: %userprofile%\AppData\Local

Note: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    Yes, it is a complete and utter scam.  Assuming that you don't give them access to your computer, you're probably pretty course.  They are the so-called "canvassing" - selection of lists of random phone numbers and try to sell services and/or access to your computer.  You did the right thing, hang up on them.

    Original title: I will take a phone call from "Windows Care" telling me that my computer was sending Windows messages.  He wanted to access my computer to solve the problem.  Is anyone aware of this company?

    Does anyone got a call from 213-221-3528 "Windows Care"?  I received a phone call from "Windows Care" telling me that my computer was sending Windows messages.   I had some problems with error messages saying that there is an unknown device on my computer.  The care Windows person wanted access to my computer to solve the problem.  I would not grant him permission until I have check this.  Everyone is aware of this company and it is legitimate?

    It is most certainly NOT legitimate.  There are a great many scams running right now, in many countries around the world, with similar claims. None of them believe.  Microsoft never call unless you called first and made arrangements for a recall to work.

    If the printer is connected with a parallel cable to the printer to the computer (usb adapter no) go into the Device Manager and click ports, and then click the lpt port that the printer is attached.  Change the default checkmark do not use an interruption for the last item to use any available interruption.  Also the legacy box downstairs.  Save the settings and the printer should work now.

  • 8.1 for Windows and Firefox 36.0.1 the text in the forms box has no carriage return. Earlier versions, as forms of work. Is there any solution for this?

    Before this version of Firefox 36.0.1, the < textarea > HTML worked in my forms. View Cart returns. In the version of 36.0.1 that they no longer work correctly. However, when I enter a carriage return, it displays a space instead of a line break. I went to test basic textarea
    < textarea > name = cols 'comments' = 20 rows = 10 < / textarea >
    to make sure that I was not introducing anything with other languages.
    I use Windows Pro 8.1. I drove back to 35.0 Firefox and everything works fine. I installed 36.0.1 and it stops working.
    I have access to another laptop also running the same version of windows and Firefox and it seems to be done as well strange things. I'm suspicious because I started to notice this immediately after a windows update last night. The laptop also known issues that he immediately after a windows update last night.
    I still have another computer running a different version of windows and Firefox and it works very well. It seems that the issue is where there are windows Pro 8.1 and Firefox 36.0.1.
    Guys do you have an idea what is happening here?
    Thank you

    The current version supports the white-space for a text box property and it is possible that the Web site uses spaces: pre instead of spaces: pre wrap.
    The former will prevent Firefox of text wrapping.

    You can check that out in the Inspector via the context menu.

    See:

    The white-space property is currently working on HTML < textarea > (bug 82711) elements.

    More than likely that the video is a format that is not supported on your system.
