Vista has changed my appearance settings and deleted the options to change their return!

This morning I turned on my laptop which runs Windows Vista Edition Home Premium version. She changed my appearance of the window of a very delightful purple color, return to the icy blue standard.

When I go to the appearance options it just gives me the old options and not the color or transparency ones, have read also on the setting in the setting of aerodynamic profile, but it also disappeared!

Along the coast this question, he also started malfunction whenever I click to get a glimpse of my saved images. The preview page opens but does not load correctly. as an art student, is somewhat a problem :/

help please!

Why not do a system restore. Take yesterday or the day before, as your restore point.
How will that help.

Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.

For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

  • Add, change and delete the file "iTunes" on a NAS

    I have just said "Apple Support Community" by Apple Support.

    The title probably sums up what I'm trying to do. I'm looking for a way to add, change, and delete files on a NAS.

    Hardware: MacBook Pro 15, 1 TB of storage, 16 GB memory, OSX El Capitan.

    NAS: Qnap TS - 453 has: storage nominally 16 TB, up to about 5 TB.  4 WD 4TB disks in a RAID 5 configuration.

    a Vaio WIN10 as well as a smaller MacBook (my wife)

    The purpose of the NAS is to provide a backup system for computers and act a server "iTunes."

    I acquired the NAS after the death of my WD MyBook live in December 2015 after five years of reading backup and "iTunes" to my computer and the Sonos system.

    After two months of 'getting to know you' with the NAS, I finally managed to configure the server "iTunes" and Mirabile Indo-European it works!  I'm just doing the SIN to a back-up for computers.

    Now for the question: I am looking for an app (for lack of a better term) that will allow me to add and remove files to and from the NAS "iTunes" folder

    My search for a solution so far has indicated that:

    (1) NAS' iTunes folder is not really true Apple iTunes and

    (2) I need something that is DAAP (Digital Audio Access Protocol) friendly, that would allow me to add, change and delete the files.that would allow me to add, edit and delete files.

    I'm not looking for something that would synchronize the files iTunes NAS to one of my computers, I am all prepared to do myself if necessary.

    If I can't find an application so I use the app 'Brute Force' change my Mac iTunes required records and download again to my NAS.

    Why do you need an app to put the files in a folder on the NAS Server?  Make them just above in the Finder.  Maybe I'm missing just your problematic here.  Do you mean add your PEMA files to iTunes? I've never used this file format, but kind of, I would be very surprised if iTunes supported it.

    the NAS iTunes folder is not really true Apple iTunes

    I don't understand what you're trying to say here.  "Apple iTunes" is an application. Yes, a folder is not an application.

    Be warned, we see not few messages from people that use iTunes with a NAS. Often the problems cannot be explained. sometimes just iTunes and NAS disagree togther.

  • In windows Vista Basic how can I remove and resize the pagefile

    Well I don't have this problem with any other os but vista Basic, well, when I try to delete the pagefile through advanced system settings and restart for some strange reason, the pagefile is still. I tried to move the swap file on a flash drive and that he did not either. How can I delete the swap file in vista basic? I'm trying to resize and make it bigger, but I don't want 2 small page-files only a principal to save the hard drive the work of reading back between the 2 of them.

    You cannot delete the pagefile because Vista cannot function without it - and it is not necessary to do what you want to do.  Yet, the size can be changed without requiring a multiple page files.  Here is the procedure:http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/understanding-windows-vista-paging-file-size/.  NOTE: To get there go to start / Control Panel / System / advanced system settings / performance / settings / advanced / Virtual memory (instead of the way they tell you in the article). Then uncheck the box to let Windows manage and hoped that would be the input parameters (but I recommend you let Windows manage it - increasing, it's not really help this as much as you are strongly constrained by the amount of RAM)- but the decision is yours.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Vista goes to 50% CPU usage and connects the computer for hours after the beginning

    Original title: Vista processor

    Stupid Vista goes to 50% CPU usage and connects the computer for hours after the start.  Cannot run anything with any request of CPU without getting bogged down and crashing.  It is not windows defender, I suspend this service and the machine is ok for another 1/2 hour, them I'm up to 50% of the CPU.  The idle process said Task Manager is > 90%, still indicates 50% CPU usage and the cooling fan looks like a 747 taking off.  Should I just pull the machine and go for Linux, or what?  Cannot run games or whatever it is, totally disgusted with vista of POS and microsoft can it Deep and do not get windows 7, it is probably worse.  Is that all I can turn off to get the same performance than, say, windows 3.1?  It would be preferable to the current situation.  MSCKMA.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

    Original title: Hi I have a windows 7

    You must be at least one account Admin on the PC.  It's just the way that Windows 7 works.

    The account that you used to make the new Admin account must also be an administrator full - account only administrators can make new accounts.

    Of running Windows 7, it is recommended to use a user account Standard for all daily activities.  In addition to that, make two password protected administrator accounts & write passwords.  Make a password reset disk for each account on the PC.

    On the removal of Maxewell girl - the account is deleted [this is possible by an Admin]

    1. go to the daughter of C:\Users\Maxewell's and copy all the files of this user that you want to continue

    2 using Control Panel, user accounts, manage another account.

    3 you can then remove the entire Panel Contorl system, advanced system, Advanced tab settings user profile, select user account profiles - settings button - then click on the button Delete

    4. go on girl C:\Users\Maxewell's and verify that the files are deleted
