• Local TV news sez DO NOT USE Windows Explorer for XP and Windows 7!

There is problem that a 'hacker' can support my computer through Microsoft Windows Explorer. Is a CLEAR and PRESENT an IMMEDIATE DANGER?  Can I uninstall Windows Explorer? What should I install to take the place of the Windows Explorer?  How can I find the 'Toolbox' of Microsoft?  I use Microsoft Update at least twice a week to keep abreast of updates.

  Don't believe everything you read in the newspapers or see on TV.

  Then, you must distinguish 'Windows Explorer' (file management tool) and "Internet Explorer" (web browser).  You cannot uninstall Windows Explorer.  It is an integral part of Windows.

  You can't really delete Internet Explorer either, although in recent versions of Windows, you can remove a lot of it.

  You probably think of this story of a discovery recently 'zero-day exploit' in Internet Explorer: http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense/2012/09/18/internet_explorer_zero_day_vulnerability_ie8_ie9_hack_means_you_should_switch_browsers_.html
  You can read about so-called bypass Microsoft here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/advisory/2757760 but they are so heavy that they are virtually worthless for the average user.

  If you are worried, I suggest the following:
  1. do not visit web sites that you don't know everything.
  2. make sure that your antivirus application is up-to-date.
  3. make sure that you have Microsoft Update set to automatically get updates (not just twice a week, although that normally, it's probably OK): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306525
  4 and probably first of all, rather than Finally, download and install another browser, like Firefox or Google Chrome.  If you use one of these browsers instead of Internet Explorer, there is no need to actually remove Internet Explorer (and you still need to use it to get Microsoft Updates).

  Get Firefox here: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/
  Download Chrome here: https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/
  Get opera here: http://my.opera.com/community/opera/get
  Download Safari here (even if apparently Apple growing is more Safari for Windows): http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1531

  How to view the songs that were on the "rocket" when buying using windows Explorer?

  Do you need the list or do you need knowledge where they are? If you are looking for the list just look for the Board of Directors. If you are looking for them on the "rocket" you must be connected in MTP Mode.

• I can't open anything that uses Windows Explorer...

  I just installed Office 2007 and now I can't open anything that uses Windows Explorer. This includes the trash, all files and folders, same control panel. The only things I seem to be able to run correctly are programs. When I try to open anything, I get a popup window stating "Windows Explorer...". (Not responding) "and it will remain forever as this very pretty. After some clicking, it will inform me that Windows Explorer has stopped responding and that I can force close, waiting, etc.

  I can't open all the products of the 2007 Office Suite that I just installed but I can't delete them either, since I don't have access to these files in the Panel. I checked in the file manager, and he said I actually opened these programs (I had 6 cases of execution of Excel), but they do not open and are just frozen on my screen.
  I tried xplorer2 download and access control by that Panel, and it froze AGAIN, although I could enter some of my files that I could not earlier.
  What can I do if I can't access control panel to remove things or to restore my system? Should I delete the MSOffice registers?

  Fixed! Ignore the previous message!

  It was something within the Office itself, which was to ruin. I ran the diagnostic tool of the Office she found an error of diagnosis, repaired, Office has been able to open (and then I had my Windows Explorer as well back function). Woohoo!
  For those who have similar problems, I did start > Microsoft Office > Microsoft Office Tools > Microsoft Office Diagnostics and he ran.

• I searched C:\Windows\System32\regedit32.exe using Windows Explorer and it not found

  Windows 7 SP1 32-bit on Dell Optiplex 745

  http://PC.NET/helpcenter/answers/access_and_edit_the_windows_registry

  After reading the above Web page, I searched C:\Windows\System32\regedit32.exe

  using Windows Explorer and could not find.   I have "show readers, the hidden files and folders" selected under view

  in then Folder Options if she were here, he should appear.

  Here is a picture of the analysis of clarification;    Can someone check to see if it is installed in their computer files?  Thanks, D.Shepherd

  

  If you look in the correct folder, and use the correct file name, you would be able to find regedt32.exe:

  

  There was formerly a difference between regedit.exe and regedt32.exe but since Windows XP, when you start regedt32.exe, it ends up running regedit.exe:

  https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/141377

  So use either one you want, but whatever you choose, you're going to get regedit.exe.

  Remember that there is no cancellation or exit without saving when you use the registry editor, so it is prudent to have a strategy that if you make a mistake and your system becomes unusable (not start) when you have done, you will have a way to cancel the changes.

  You can use this popular tool costs to back up your registry:

• I can't use windows Explorer or the network drive mapping to access my NAS drive more.

  original title: strange NAS problem

  Hi everyone I can't seem to fix this strange problem.

  I can't use windows Explorer or the network drive mapping to access my NAS drive more.
  I am running windows 7 Professional 32-bit on my PC, and until about a week ago she accessed from my PC very well.

  The location could not be reached and have not been able to run since said today that I went to update it and the drive mapped. I'm at my wits end.

  Here is some info.

  I can access to other computers and devices on my network.

  I can access the internet.
  I have a windows XP PC in the House who can always connect to my fine NAS drive (even if it's not mine).
  I PING the NAS drive.
  The NAS drive will do the same if connected via cable or by wireless.

  UPDATE: after the implementation of a shared folder on a Windows XP computer on the same network I am also unable to acsess the part of my PC. So I can assume that I can't browse all share folders or NAS drives on my local network.

  Help, please.

  Thanks for the help, but I fixed my problem

  Here's what I did in case anyone wants to know.

  I went into Device Manager and went to network adapters.
  I then expanded this section and under view changed to display hidden items.
  Several hundred elements appears (for most 6to4 adapters) and I deleted all the.
  Then click scan for new hardware.

  I get a pop-up window saying windows is looking for a sonic Update Manager file (said scan.msi) and can't find it - he is constantly back and forth w/Setup attempt and then returns to "Please install the scan disk file" which I DID not!  How can I get rid of this, and which upped in the 1st place?  Did not request a scan?  I am using iolo System Mechanic installed by Dell and do not know if something in this program attempts to run a scan, but it's very embarrassing to have these pop up screens constantly fight w/each other - I tried to cancel out of them, and they just continue to flow upward again and again.

• When I try to copy a file to an external device using Windows Explorer I get the following error message: "cannot copy. The directory or file cannot be created. »

  original title: could not copy files

  When I try to copy a file to an external device using Windows Explorer I get the following error message: "cannot copy.  The directory or file cannot be created. "I understand that I may have the physical limit of USB keys for the root directory.  How can I fix it?

  Hi GloriaZF,

  What is the size of your external hard drive and what is the available free space? Open my computer-> right click on the external hard drive-> properties. You will not be able to copy more data if the disk is full, or who have less space compared to the size of the file you are trying to copy.

  You need to remove the order data to make the space more. Deleted data from the device USB will be permanently deleted and will not be stored in your Inbox, so take care while eliminating unnecessary data.

  I hope this helps.

• You can use Windows Explorer (in Windows XP) to view my files according to their DATE OF PUBLICATION (rather than the date of creation or modification).

  I have a lot of cuts in MY Documents. They are variously in format (TXT, WORD, and PDF). Using Windows Explorer, I know exactly how to display these documents based on their date of creation or update. But how to display these documents based on their release date.

  (1) there must be a way to set "date of publication" as a property of TXT, Word, and PDF files.

  (2) there must be a way to display in chronological order the files in Windows Explorer - not according to their creation or modification date, but according to their date of publication.

  Can someone please? Maybe someone write an essay with many historical sources can feel my pain. I was playing with MS Word properties and trying to create custom, attributes but so far I still did not understand how to format a) correctly a new attribute for b) search for this custom in Windows Explorer or the Publication Date attribute.

  In short, I want to see all my files, because they have been published so that I can have a "timeline of events" outcome of saved newspaper clippings.

  Name/rename the files with numbers on the front of the file name; for example, 01-11-2009 - historicaldocument1.doc, 02-13-1957 - historicaldocument2.doc. There is no way for Windows can read the text of a file whether it refers to the great Chicago Fire what on such and such a date.

  If you are doing historical research, you can check on some forums/newsgroup user on your particular area to see if other people use the documents management software. It would be the best way to go. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  I had installed the update of MS Windows Defender KB915597.  After doing a restore to the point of restoration, taken at the time of the update, I am now able to open Windows Explorer.

  Seems that something in this update does not work with my system.  I have had no other problems with Windows Defender updates in the past - it was the first.

  The empty file A4 must be chosen and indicated in the editing workspace. You should drag the other image of the photo to the workspace tray, not the workspace to the photo tray. Then, with the tool moving is selected, you use the handles to resize, move or rotate the image.
