What are alternatives to restore my error active desktop with touching registry in windows xp?

Hi Zahid,

Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

According the information you have provided, I understand that you have found an active desktop error Windows XP.

I will certainly help you in this matter.

Were there any changes made to the computer before the show?

Most of the time active desktop errors are related to the corruption of the registry.

Important: 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.

    You are allowed to have two facilities enabled, so if you prefer you can keep ut on the current computer and just install it on the new as you did initially.  If you want to remove on the other machine, the first thing to do is to disable it by opening a program in the suite and by selecting help-> turn off in the top toolbar.  That's all you need to do to disable the software.  At this point if you prefer you can uninstall it if you want.

    As much as on the new nmachine, as I indicated just, just install it like you did the first time.

    You want to allow someone to open your document and fill in the form (the fields that you have created), but not change or edit the form, right? Here is the answer - assuming you use Acrobat Pro and someone will open the PDF with the Acrobat Reader 9 minimum and more:

    Tools > Protection > encrypt< encrypt="" with="">

    Select YES to change security.

    Opens in a new window:

    Do not select NOT open the Document (or will require a password to open the document.)

    SELECT: Permissions (check the box next to ' Restrict editing and printing of the document. ")

    Change the following 2 settings in the drop-down list box:

    Printing allowed: select high resolution

    Changes allowed: select commenting on, fill in the fields on the form and signature of signature fields
    Selected leave: "enable access text for playback devices to screen for people with visual impairments.

    Change password Permissions (insert a password)

    Leave all the other settings alone in 'Options '.

    OK - OK

    Again enter the Permissions password (the one you entered above)

    OK - OK

    Save the PDF file to apply security [notice that (SECURED0 will appear after the title of the document]

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what operating system works - it?

    The problem is the disc in the tray of the burner not recognised by Premiere Elements. Another frequent related issue is location of burner: burn dialog is empty when the Premiere Elements does not recognize the burner.

    In the problem that you have.

    have a. you tried other brands/types of DVD discs?

    b. If you start a new project and take the new timeline content DVD-video to DVD disc, the problem remains the same?

    B. have you tried to uninstall / free program ccleaner cross / reinstall with antivirus and firewall disabled?

    If you are in a time crunch, you should consider burning the chronology contained in the record and then taking the the VIDEO_TS folder

    recorded in a program like ImgBurn for DVD-VIDEO on DVD production.

    Please check and review and then provide you with the way to details. Looking forward to your results.

  • Time Machine failed backup. What are alternative backup software?

    A MBP with 1 TB HD could not continue the Time Machine backup, after update OS X to El Capitan 10.11.6. Old backups TM are automatically removed because of the error checking. The MBP also failed to make a new backup TM.

    I guess I maybe need a reinstallation of the OS X. How is it safe to reinstall OS X 10.11.6 without a backup?  Any suggestion of a software disk cloning? (e.g. copy of carbon can make a clone of disc? How do I?)

    You should check the drive you used for Time Machine backups with disk utility > first aid to make sure that the disc is not serious. If you mean Carbon Copy clone, yes it can create clones. Instructions to create a clone are provided with the program.

  • What are the best bluetooth wireless speakers to use with the iMac

    I have the desktop iMac 27 in. on which I have my iTunes.  I want to buy some speakers for the room which will connect to the iMac's wireless.  Someone at - it a system like this to recommend.  I looked the Sonos speakers that run through wi - fy - but don't know if that's what I need.  Any input would be appreciated.

    Speakers are a very personal choice. Better would be those that you love the most. Which may be different from someone else.

    Excellent fact Bose pregnant BT that work with your iMac, I like them a bit. However, some say that they can be too bass-ey.

    You must listen to the speakers to find the ones you want to use.

    Try looking at Bose or Harman Kardon to start. Any pregnant BT should work with your iMac

  • What are the causes of error - OR-XNET: the NOR-XNET driver is no longer can communicate with the device.

    Hello

    I use X-NET-PCI8512, OS: Windows 7, C++ (middle of the QT interval).

    I'm pooling of card data (StreamIn member function) to ~ 100 Hz. card reading time (ReadStatus) to ~ 100 Hz.

    After about 40 min (depends on the amount of data in) I get this error:

    (Hex 0xBFF630B2) The NOR-XNET driver cannot communicate with the device. Solution: Make sure that the device was not removed from the computer.

    What are the causes of this error?

    Thanks in advance,

    Aviad

    Hello aviadCielo,

    When you get this error, what does do to make it work again? If you restart your program, start all this work?

    Secondly, what version of NOR-XNET do you use? It's maybe a software problem that could be resolved by upgrading to NOR-XNET 1.6.

    Finally, can you reproduce this problem with a simple program? If so, you can join the program you use?

  • Wait 2 weeks for repair NBD - what are my options?

    Bought Dell XPS13 in 2015. The screen died in January and Dell has replaced the motherboard then.

    Screen still dies more than 2 weeks, and my case for replacement has been open since. The repair of the business day next is waiting for parts to arrive.

    What are my options? I am extremely dissatisfied with the support received, also do not really trust Dell to be able to solve this problem, taking into account several people have reported the same problem. (example here)

    Hello!  Usually NBD support is dependent on the availability of the parts as well until they get the parts they cannot fix.  You have an option to Exchange renovated after 3 attempts to repair the unit, but it looks like they're working on the attempt 2.  If you want you can send a private message by clicking here, for Dell-Robert P. and he may be able to help.

    Hey jennyanderson99

    as you ask specifically about active desktop, here's what it is, or in your case what she was before vista released

    Active Desktop is a feature of Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 Windows Desktop Update that allows the user to add optional contentHTML on the Office, as well as a few other features. This feature was designed to be installed on theWindows 95 operating system then in force. It was also included inWindows 98 and later Windows operating systems up toWindows Vista, where the feature wasdiscontinued. This corresponds to the version ofInternet Explorer 4.0 to 6.x, but not Internet Explorer 7.

    HTML users can add in place of the ordinary wallpaper as independent resizable desktop items. Items available online can be regularly updated and synchronized so that users can stay up-to-date without visiting the site in their browser.

    Active Desktop works as the technology of desktop widget that allows users to add customized their desktop information.

    Here is information for active desktop for xp

    information from wikipedia about active desktop are less than

    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Desktop

    The introduction of the Active Desktop brand attempt by Microsoft to take advantage of the ephemeral trendtechnology push led by PointCast. Active Desktop has imposed a number of "channels" ofdesktop computers that provided information updated continuously, such as headlines and stock quotes, without the user to open aWeb browser of the user.

    Active Desktop debuted during the publication of 1997 of Internet Explorer 4.0 for Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0, install it as a feature of theWindows Desktop Update offered to users during the upgrade option. The Windows desktop update is commonly referred to as (bad) Active Desktop itself, but it is actually a whole Windows shell to level v4.0 to v4.71, or v4.72, with many changes in the Windows interface, resulting in a level look and features almost indistinguishable from the Windows 98, then again to-be-released. Features include the ability to allow uppercase filenames (the old v4.0 Desktop would forcibly filenames in title case uppercase), the dynamic tracking file selection click configurable, customizable by HTML, QuickLaunch folder display settings mini buttons on the taskbar next to the Start button, improved to Start Menu drag and drop re-organization of the elements and menus contextual click right to rename point etc. With the update, Windows Explorer now has an address bar in Internet addresses that can be entered and driven seamlessly.

    Active Desktop was widely regarded as a failure, with one of the main problems being its use high system and reduction of the stability of the system resources. Although not used[citation needed], the availability of Active Desktop was decisive for the legal argument Microsoft in antitrust case of United States v. Microsoft , that Internet Explorer has a feature of Windows, not a separate product.

    Later use

    Windows Vista has replaced the Active Desktop withWindows Sidebar (now called Gadgets Windows Desktop fromWindows 7), which also allows the components to add to the desktop. Windows XP is the newest operating system from Microsoft to support Active Desktop. It seems that the 64 bit version of Windows XP supports is no longer Active Desktop. It provides always the option to display Web pages and channels built with MicrosoftChannel Definition Format (CDF) on the desktop.

    Display HTML features are now mainly used for creating wallpapers originals and adding the fields of desktop search. For example, a user can copy the following code to display the search box of Wikipedia on the desktop:
