    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.

  • Computer is very slow and IE does not work all the time.

    I bought a computer from my old employeer.  He is doing all sorts of things, or should I say not to do all sorts of things.  It is very slow and IE does not work all the time.  They have questions arise and ask if the administrator oks things and other things like that.  It came with any disks.  I would like to wipe, clean and load a new disc, but I don't know where to find the disc or if I can do it.   Can someone please?

    Hello

    Proceed as follows to contribute to these two questions. You can probably buy the disks of Vista machine to system or get
    the former employer to do it for you if necessary.

    Try these and it can also be a good idea to update your main drivers later. The General corruption can also play a
    role in this issue. And even the TCP/IP stack might need to be refreshed.

    What antivirus/antispyware/security products do you have on the machine? Be one you ALREADY had on this
    machine, including those you have uninstalled (they leave leftovers behind which can cause strange problems).

    If no joy there's something blocking perhaps.

    Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - IE with no Addons - what works best?

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Advanced - tab click on restore, and then click Reset - apply / OK

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Security tab - click on reset all default areas - apply / OK

    Close and restart IE or IE with no addons

    not better?

    IE - tools - manage Addons (for sure disable SSV2 if it is there, it is no longer necessary but Java always install
    "(and it causes problems - you never update Java to go back in and turn it off again)." Search for other possible problems.

    Windows Defender - tools - software explore - look for problems with programs that do not look right. Permit
    are usually OK and "unauthorized" are not always bad. If in doubt about a program to ask about it here.

    Could be that a BHO - BHOremover - free - standalone program, needs no installation, download and run - not all
    are bad, but some can cause your question (toolbars are BHO).

  • My driver support does not work all the time, won't let me connect, keeps losing internet connection.

    * Original title: SUPPORT of the PILOTS LOSE INTERNET.

    My driver support does not work all the time, won't let me connect, keeps losing internet connection.

    What do you mean by "driver support?

    If you have installed one of these offers of support software driver, you have installed malware.  The vast majority of them no useful software and installing a lot of malware on your computer.

    The drivers are not the soft thing you should normally be updated.  I recommend the updated drivers only in the case of a problem that has to solve, and it's rare.

    Is the ONLY source, you should consider for driver updates or OEM support site.  Even those who sometimes go way overboard in trying to update the drivers.  The latest Dell systems are equipped with updated software that checks for new updates every day.   In most cases, drivers are rarely updated after the first year of a product.

  • Default dictionary will not change all the time.

    It's pretty simple. I have a Canadian English dictionary installed on Firefox, but whenever I put it in the dictionary, it will be back to US to restart Firefox. This is not used as a problem, it launched in only a month or two ago. Prior to this date, he was constantly on en - CA.

    I've seen a few questions on this site talking about all the preferences recording do not, which is not the case, and certain preferences does not save if you have a file of user preferences, which I did not have to speak. It's really the dictionary thing. Any information to keep this going to the Canada would be appreciated.

    Actually worked, but before you transfer things from my profile, I have tried to solve the problem by uninstalling the dictionary and then put it back. This seems to have worked... only time will tell if it happens again. If it comes to that point, I'll copy my profile. Thank you!

  • Create shortcut folders does not work all the time?

    I needed to create multiple folders shortcut for a project that needs them often, and I just couldn't. Still, I remember in the past and one of them actually have on my desktop for my photos.

    It appeared that in folder trees if I right click on the folder you want, "create shortcut" Option did not show upward! the same with the folders on my desktop would be! If rich of this conclusion, I copied my "recalcitrant" folder on the desktop (had to cut short the copy because it was great!), but got a copy of it on my desk (with only what he had time can be fully copied!). Then right clicked on it and the shortcut option appeared! I re routed the path to the original on my D drive folder and it works well.
    Obviously something does not work as it should and I don't have to do all this, so I hope someone knows the answer to this problem. Maybe a stupid option that must be checked on somewhere...

    I don't know if this is your question or not because it should either work, or not at all. The first fix, here is a zip file which will certainly not hurt to try. It's my answer for those who have reported lately that the new folder option did not work in Win7 canned.

  • Taskbar does not hide all the time, Windows 7

    * Title *.
    Windows 7 taskbar won't consistantly autohide. After you change the properties of auto-hide and clicking 'OK', it hides for a brief second and then reappears. Other times it autohides as you wish.

    My auto hide the task bar behaves in an irregular pattern.  When I got an alert, it autohides after resolving the alert, but other times he refused to go far, even if I have, once again, open the properties, uncheck hide automatically, check again auto-hide, and then click "apply" or "OK". As I type this, the taskbar remains stubbornly!

    In the "good old days" applications would be un-hide the bar often tasks for their notification icons may show a status update and they could make sure that he would be seen.  I think that this method has fallen into disgrace, but legacy applications that have not been updated might still be sending orders to the system to display the taskbar.  Is it possible that you have an older application in the notification area that is rampant in the taskbar as described?

    What notification area icons you have (and which versions)?

    For what it's worth, I just tried to disable Avast Pro 5.0 and are still allowed to auto-hide the toolbar.
