• Windows Explorer closes and restarts (?) when I right click on a file photo.

  One time, I installed a software to go with a slide scanner. The software changed to the default program for photo files and then proceeds to seize up after that about 12 slides have been scanned. I removed the software, but every time I do a right-click on a file photo, jpeg, gif, bitmap, etc., or try to open the file menu when one is highlighted, close all Windows Explorer Windows and icons in the taskbar and desktop disappear for a while. The last two return after a minute or two, but not all open windows. Other programs such as Internet Explorer or MS Word are not affected.

  I suspect that the defective scanner software installed an entry in the context menu. Search for it and delete it using the ShellExView free program:

• What happened to the option to send a file or a folder to another folder under the options "send to", when I right click on a file?

  I'm running Windows 7 Pro.  On my last machine, I was able to right click on a file or folder, go down to "send to" and one of the options was 'send to folder '.  Now, this option is not available.  Is it possible that I can get this option in the options for places I can send a file or folder, or is it simply not an option in this version of Windows?  I am sure that I always had this option when I upgraded my old laptop to Windows 7 Pro.

  Which is now only in leModifiermenu Windows Explorer, move to folder... / / copy to folder...

• Registry access denied when I right click on a file to copy

  original title: registry access denied

  I reinstalled Vista family premium, a few weeks ago and now whenever I try to open certain programs is to say (iTunes, Autocad, MS Office) I get a

  Message: registry access denied.

  I also get access to the registry refused whenever I did a right click on a file to copy.

  The account I'm logged as definitely is an administrator account. I changed the owner of the C: and all files on my admin account. When vista was reinstalled the installation program was initially assigned the owner as trusted Installer.

  I also tried to set up another admin account and I get the same error under this account.

  Is could someone please tell me what I need to change to get the stop to receive this error message. Any help would be appreciated.

  Thanks for the reply Rami

  I had already made A step.

  All my documents, etc. had my account admin as the owner of the file, but when I went in the C: and through the steps of A which was where the Trusted Installer has been listed as the owner.  I had changed it, but he did not set the message boxes to come whenever I loaded a program or trying to copy a file (the program would be the load and copies the files if I clicked ok in the Message box).

  I couldn't do step C since there is no restore point to go as I wiped the drive and reinstalled Vista.

  Step B - I ran and he has a message to check the log file in c: Windows/logs/cbs, that I didn't have access to read the same file with admin access.

  To fix it, I finally just reinstalled vista again and this time I do not get the Message box registry errors when opening programs.  The c: once more the installer of trust as owner, but the rest of the files are under my account.  I don't ' know
  What is different, but it works again without these errors of annoying message box.

• 'Always available offline' is not visible when I right-click on a file in the network.

  I assumed that putting computers in a home group could solve the problem, but I get an error that IPv6 is not available.

  Connectivity IPv6 is not supported by my router (linksys WRT150N).  Y at - it solution or a wireless router that works?  I am running Win 7 Pro 64 bits on a computer and Win 7 Pro 32 bit on my laptop.  I can see the network files and transfer them OK.

  What I really need to work is the offline files feature.  When I see the network files and right-click on the files, the option 'always available offline' is not visible.  I have to be in a homegroup for offline files work?

  Hi DickCookVS

  If the offline files option is disabled, you will need to enable it, if you want to work with files offline to a network folder.

  a. open offline files by clicking the Start button. In the search box, type offline filesand then in the list of results, click manage offline files.

  b. on the general tab, click enable offline files.

  You will need to restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

• When I right click on a file to save it, Firefox saves it in my download folder without let me pick the destination. Can I get around this?

  When I save a file (by clicking on the right) when you use Internet Explorer, I'm allowed to choose the destination folder. However, when I use my default browser to Firefox (again, by right clicking), it simply records the file in my downloads folder without allowing me to select the destination. Why does this happen and can I do to save a file using Firefox and choose the destination where I save it? (My OS is Windows Vista)

  Example: Right-click on start, only get the outline of the box, but if I drag the mouse inside the outline I get options available one at a time.

• Cursor freezes when I right click on a file

  Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (with all latest updates)

  32-bit operating system

  IE9

  Whenever I right click a file (all), the cursor freezes with the waiting round circle: then I have to go to Task Manager and complete the task under applications to continue to work. To bring things back to normal, I have to restart, but after a while the cursor starts to work again. It is terribly annoying, because I very often work with the menu drop-down list by clicking index right files and regularly use the paste, cut, rename, and delete functions. This problem has happened recently. I have checked my virus from the system and nothing presented. I also realized all the maintenance tasks. I used Nirsoft ShellExView to disable/enable types "contex menu" for all software except those that relate to Microsoft and still have the problem.

  Please advise, thank you very much.

• Why don't the option + click on download a linked file more?

  Until I have Firefox itself yesterday, hold down the Option key while clicking on a link downloaded the linked file, as if I right click (or Ctrl + click on) improved, choose 'Download Link', and then shot back, but with much less effort.

  Now, nothing happens when I do that. I tried on several different sites, with a couple of different file types.

  All of the plugins below have been installed, though not all in their updates until the problem occurred.

  Hey plovejoy, this feature has been disabled by default in firefox 13 - view back to the, enter Subject: config in the address bar, search for the preference named browser.altClickSave and toggle true by double-clicking it.

• Under XP I have right click Start exploring, when I right click on a file, it says Explorer has encountered a problem, I need help.

  In the error message, there is a lot of information sent to Microsoft, but I have never had a response from them or been able to correct the problem myself. So what good sends an error problem to Microsoft each time got? Please notify that it is driving me crazy...

  Usually, this is caused by an expansion of the Shell program.  Download and run the program freeware "ShellExView".  He will present a screen with all the Shell Extensions present.  Disable them a little at a time by unchecking them until you find the one that is causing the problem.
