When you click on shortcuts or program files, it goes to 'Open with' & makes you choose a program to open with. (none open)

All of a sudden today when my son was using the computer that it was impossible for the operation of the internet, he told me & I checked out, but now when clicking on desktop shortcuts or try to open program files, it goes to 'Open with' & makes you choose a program to open with.  Looks like a virus that affect executive function/programs?  Can anyone help?  I can't restore...b/c it's the same 'open with' I can only use internet if the opening of the bottom of the box "open with."  Very frustrating and confusing to me.  Word can open if I do it from a file on the c: / drive, but no, if I try to open the program.

  • Parameter is not working when you choose all values

    Dear all

    I am facing this problem with the parameter.

    The question now is, when I choose the value of the parameter as, his recovery "" http://obi-dev.jr.local:9704/xmlpserver/resource/blafplus/dialog/title_error.png error has occurred on the recovery of xml data ""

    I ran a count for items to see the number of items in the values list and its almost 3000 Articles

    am I face this error due to the large number of values or the parameter can handle so much data or am I doing something wrong?

    Please advice, thank you


    I also encountered this problem and I tried the approach below, which worked for me...

    I understand that you use multi-Select the type at the same time, you spend also Null values when ALL is chosen.

    The changes have to do with your SQL code

    Assuming that this is your setting where clause:

    and (a.padded_concatenated_segments in (: PARA_PADDED_ITEM_NUMBER))

    or

    a.padded_concatenated_segments = DECODE(:PARA_PADDED_ITEM_NUMBER,,PADDED_ITEM_NUMBER,'-1')

    Note This command 'or' must be inserted into the holder.

    Now,.

    When you choose as a value in the parameter, the code below will be taken care

    a.padded_concatenated_segments = DECODE(:PARA_PADDED_ITEM_NUMBER,,PADDED_ITEM_NUMBER,'-1')

    When you select single or multiple value, the code below will be taken care

    a.padded_concatenated_segments in (: PARA_PADDED_ITEM_NUMBER)

  • When you choose a webcam for use with host character, should what features I look for?

    When you choose a webcam for use with host character, should what features I look for in the webcam? For example, choose the one that captures full HD (1080 p)? Or any webcam will work? I just want to be able to make the motion capture process as easy as possible, so I think I must look over the webcam plug before you buy.

    Any webcam should work, but a higher resolution can improve the accuracy of tracking. Adequate/same lighting on your face is too important.

  • When I click on the 'New tab' button, or try to open a new tab in the Menu "File Pull Down", a new tab will not open. How can I fix it?

    I can't open new tabs. The new tab button, new tab in the file menu option and the new tab option when I right click on the tab all do not work. It started when I updated Firefox yesterday. It becomes annoying when you try to work with several tabs open. How can I fix?

    Try to uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and the current version of Firefox.

  • Over the years I've updated Photoshop repeatedly.  When I click on start and programs it shows P

    Over the years I've updated Photoshop repeatedly.  When I click Start, programs I have CS4, CS5 and CS6 installed is displayed.  If all three are installed, doesn't it eat lots of hard drive space?  If so, can I uninstall CS4 and CS5 and still have CS6 function properly?  Note: I use Windows 64-bit versions.  Thank you in advance for your help!

    Yes, you can uninstall versions CS4 and CS5 if you use is no longer.

    It would not affect the functionality of the CS6.

    Kind regards

  • First 2015.4 CC crashing when you choose h.264

    Let me start from the beginning; I had updated my video card had a weird problem with it when the screen remained black, but I finally got things and run again. At edit a project and I noticed that when I imported the video, it came with no sound in the monitor of the timeline and source even if the video has played very well outside the first. Could not understand why, happening so I decided to upgrade from the first, thinking that it might be a bug has been fixed. After the update, I started a new project and one of the imported clips and finally, they played very well. So I opened the previous project, in the immediate future, first 2015.4 and all loading upward, but all the videos of the project were gray in the project window and when you click on will present media in the meantime but there was no consistent going on at all. Since all played very well apart from the videos, I thought it must be a problem because of the upgrade, so I deleted the videos, re-imported and places them how I wanted that they worked. Now when I go to export, when I change my AVI to h.264 format, the program hangs and then crashes. I tried the things:

    1 clean the media cache

    2. change the project settings to use the software only

    3. Uninstall and reinstall first

    4. restoration of the video card driver

    5 reset

    Sill no luck. I checked the event viewer, and it showed that ntdll.dll has been involved in accidents. My PC specs are:

    CPU: i7 3820 (8 cores) running at 3.8 Ghz

    Motherboard: Gigabyte LGA-2011

    Memory: 28GB

    GPU: GigaByte GTX 650 Ti (pilot: 372.54 latest Version)

    PP Version: PP CC 2015.3 (although he said the responsibility of project: 2015.4)

    OS: Windows 10 x 64

    Disk: 1 TB HARD drive

    Would have thought I would collect some support here, don't think. Anyway, I solved my problem. Retired on 2015.3/4 in 2015 again and made a manual of the media folder cache files (which I thought was empty since I clicked on media clean cache from the program, but was not), has also done sfc scan and saw that iccvid.dll has been corrupted, replaced one but also re-download and install a codec pack. So now, at least for this first version it's in the form of work.

  • When I click on the + button on the tape tabs to open a new tab, search.conduit opens. How can I change to get the original firefox tab page?

    Recently, I installed utorrent. The problem began after that. The homepage is Google, but by opening a new tab, I don't get the thumbnails appearing usually rather search.conduit page is open. How can I get my old settings back? I even uninstalled utorrent to see if the problem goes away, but it's not.

    Looks like led/Utorrent amended your preference of browser.newtab.url . First of all, check your installed programs and Firefox extensions for a related Conduit material or a 'Utorrent browser bar '. Uninstall if found.

    1. In the address bar, type Subject: config and press enter. The subject: config "this might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
    2. Click on I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue on the subject: config page.
    3. Type browser.newtab.url in the search box
    4. Double-click the browser.newtab.url preference and change the url to Subject: newtab
    5. Also search about: config for driving/Utorrent preferences. Search for pipes and Utorrent. If there is, then right-click and choose reset

    I use Utorrent, but what can happen is that the Utorrent Installer installed also led. When you install programs, don't forget to read and not to go click happy.
