Help, please

  • My up asking me if I want to restore my Active Desktop and when I press Yes thinking it press I Yes. Any help will be appreciated and thank you

    Hello, I have Windows XP Professional on my computer at home and a week ago I noticed a new icon on the screen that says 'New Briefcase (2)' start. I'm not this letter from the computer where I can go and start trying to remove this or that and I would like to know what would happen if I chose to delete it? The other thing that has changed is the color of the background, it used to be the old blue startup screen and now it is white and a box asking if I want to restore my Active desktop. When I pressed yes thinking it would take me back to the old blue screen that nothing happens, so I end up going to the Panel and the opening of the office and when my old screen appears, I grow well and he is back to normal, until the next time that I start. What would cause that new icon to just pop as he did and why the white of the screen with this question? I did something that would cause these changes. Any help would be appreciated and I thank you for your time and your help.

    Hello

    The new Briefcase (2) is probably empty and may have accidentally created by a right-click on the desktop > New > Briefcase. You can safely remove. It is not necessary.

    For the question of Active Desktop, try this...

    Right-click on the desktop > properties > Display Properties > Desktop > customize > Web, uncheck whatever the page is listed or add a new Web page and uncheck the box, then OK your way out. That should disable Active Desktop.

    Then... Right-click on the desktop > properties > Display Properties > Desktop > select a color.

    How to choose a program to open my photos when inserting my SD card because it does not give me options of this program to use differently than before, why, I don't know, so any help would be appreciated.

    I know what it is, and I'm trying to answer it... will keep you posted
    your original question in a forum of Vista.

    OK... you are running XP and your computer has a media player you
    Insert the card in?

    If you go to... Start / my computer... There should be one or more readers
    listed as... Removable Disk... These are the slots of the media player.

    If you right click on the removable disk representative the memory card
    and in the menu... Choose... Properties / Autoplay tab and open the fall
    window and select pictures. And... ICT... "ask me each time to choose
    an action "." Maybe this will restore the AutoPlay window when you insert
    the map.

    You could also try... on the left by clicking on the button "Restore default settings" / apply / OK.

    And it may be worth trying to run the AutoPlay Repair Wizard.

  • How can I make windows play a sound when you press the SHIFT key

    My keyboard doesn't have a light to indicate when it is capitalized. He used to play a sound, but it is more the fact after that I said not to do. However, when entering passwords that are case sensitive, it gives the wrong password. Can someone tell me how to re - turn on the sound.

    Look in Control Panel > accessibility, and then click "make the keyboard easier to use." Check the box "turn ToggleKeys. This will produce a note when you press the lock keys. Or just check the other box beneath it. In this way, you can turn the tone on or off without having to return to these settings.

    Hello
    When exactly the problem occur?
     
    Follow the steps below and check if that helps.
     
    Step 1:
     
    Test the issue in safe mode and check if the keyboard is blocked.
     
    Step 2:
     
    If your computer very well in Safe Mode functions, you can put your system to boot and check if any third party or any service application is causing the problem and therefore the computer to freeze.
     
    Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you can go ahead and disable or uninstall the same.
     
    Once the system is in a clean boot state, check if the computer continues to block or not.

    Hello!

    I had a somewhat similar to this problem and that's what I tried.

    He temporarily stabilized my problem but I have a serious type of divorce

    problems with my beloved once Windows 7. However, in your case, it may be

    the solution.

    This is the procedure:

    (1) power on your PC or laptop

    (2) when he started, start pressing and releasing the F8 key till you get the windows

    Fix the Page (I don't remember the exact name, but it's a screen with many options).

    (3) among the options is "Last known good Configuration", click it. See if that fixes the problem.

    (4) If this does not work, then you need to try other options, namely:

    (A) the Startup Repair

    (B) the system restore

    (C) verification of memory

    (D) command prompt:

    (The last option would have been a godsend, but it does not work in the console command prompt.)

    I'll tell you about it...)

    If all the above methods fail, try this method (it worked for me temporarily). This method is an option only when you

    are able to access the above page and when you have administrator privileges. Then, when you're on the screen above, you will see these options:

    Safe mode

    Safe mode with network

    Choose the second option. If all goes well, you will be at the level of the office. On the desktop, right click the command prompt icon. If you don't have a shortcut cmd, no problem. Press start and type cmd or command. Right click on cmd and then click "Run as Administrator".

    * Now in the command console, type chkdsk/f/r (the space after the chkdsk command is optional). You may get a message that you can schedule chkdsk at the next restart, treatment is (Yes).

    Then, in the same type of console sfc/scannow. If all goes well, it will rectify errors of all the files on your system.

    Note: If you please ensure that your battery is 100 pc loaded before you try it. or better yet, let him charge while you do this.

    Keep me posted.

    All the best!

  • Mouse Sonar: Registry key? Specify the location of the pointer when I press the CTRL key

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    (But this feature existed for several years, at least as old as XP).

    In Control Panel mouse pointer Options tab, there is a checkbox option:

    [b] "see the location of the pointer when I press the CTRL key". [/ b]

    When this field is selected, pressing the CTRL key causes concentric circles around the mouse pointer, to help you find it quickly. HE often called mouse Sonar.

    I want to activate this option, but my mouse control panel does not have a pointer Options tab. I installed a mouse of third-party providers of hardware, software and drivers, and they hid the pointer Options tab. If I knew that the registry key for this option, I can activate it via regedit.

    Someone knows the active registry key or disables this option?

    This option is stored under this registry key:

    HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\UserPreferencesMask
    However, it is coded to store several variables, and this direct modification is very far from a supported scenario.  You can try to install the Microsoft IntelliPoint software instead.
  • Windows help keeps popping up when you press the happy.

    Hi, I am currently using an HP XT's spectrum that runs on Windows 8. Two days previously, when I press SHIFT C, the capital C is not at all.  Therefore, I press Caps Lock shift but this triggers a Windows Help is displayed.  This can be very irritating, especially when I'm typing a document. Anyone would be able to tell me how to activate the 'Shift C' keys, as well as to turn off the help pop-up windows when you press the CAPS LOCK key.?  Thank you very much for your help!

    Hello Lai,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    If it works well before? If YES, you did important equipment or modifications to the software on the computer before this problem?

    The issue could rest with the material if it is a keyboard mapping problem. Then, I recommend you to connect an external keyboard with the ultrabook and check. If the external keyboard works fine, then you may need to contact the manufacturer of your system (hp) for the same problem.

    If you get the same problem with the external keyboard, the issue may rest with the keyboard or corrupt drivers.

    In this case, I suggest you to update the drivers for the chipset of your ultrabook. You can view the following link to do so:

    Spectrum of HP XT Pro Ultrabook

    Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

  • Pop-up doesn't close when you press the ESC key

    I have a Help menu where clicking commandmenu element opens a Popup. This menu is common to all pages.
    Only in the login Popup page does not close when I press the ESC key. Once the connection remains of pages ESC key works.

    Here is my code for the menu popup and order

    < af:popup id = "helpPopup" contentDelivery = "lazyUncached" clientComponent = "true" >
    < af:panelWindow id = title = "#{soembean.helpTitle 'pw1'} ' modal = 'false' contentHeight = '500' contentWidth ="900"clientComponent ="true"resize = 'on'"

    < / af:panelWindow >

    "rendered =" #{! sessionScope.SimulationMode} "action =" #{viewScope.help.procedureHelp} "partialSubmit ="true ".
    immediate = "true" / >


    Please give me? no idea what could be the cause or any other solution to close the pop-up window for all hours when I press Escape key?

    Hello

    is the update in the inlineFrame when you press ESC? If yes then this is probably why

    Frank

    PS: If you do not plan to access the JavaScript popup then having clientComponent = true set is a loss of client performance
