• Is there a way to protect the control panel in Windows XP?

  Hello

  I ask if there is a way to protect the control panel for windows XP.

  Thank you

  I don't think you can with XP Home, but you can hide or show the cmdlets specified by group policy in Windows XP Pro Control Panel.  The following article was written for Windows 2000, but should work in XP Pro:

  PS, I have an improved version of Windows 7 and do not know where the drive is.

  Try this:

  1. press CTRL + ALT + DEL
  2. Select the Task Manager
  3. go to: processes > explorer.exe > end process
  4. once go to: Applications > new task > explorer.exe
  See if that helps.

• Unable to access the control panel in Windows 7

  When I try to open the Control Panel, the icon appears in the taskbar, then I see the control panel real screen disappear off the coast to the right of the screen. "When I click the icon on the taskbar again, I can see the screen"Shuttlecocks"back" but it will not be open on the screen, so I can use it no matter what I try. What is the cause? I was able to use the control panel the day I booted up my new PC, but have not been able to use it since then. Then the only thing I've changed after the start-up of the first time he was my desktop theme... Help, please! Thank you.

  Nevermind, I resolved. Found the settings indicating that I had two monitors put in place. Once I put it to a monitor, the problem has been resolved. Have a great day! Just connect "newbie to Win7" :-)

• Cursor is hops. Cannot find the controls for the look in Control Panel under Windows 7.

  My cursor jumps around. I can't find where tapping the Touchpad can be disabled (if it is a help). I'll be typing and next thing I noticed, the cursor is passed. Where in the Panel I can ahold of the problem?

  Try the mouse in Control Panel.

• In the control panel under Tools, folder, file types options, why are there items her don't have next to them?

  According to my question in the title above... Tab file types... Why is it (NO) next to audio CD, disc, DVD, and a little more such elements as the folder of file, folder and to allocate to the Protocol.

  Reason why I ask this is I just do a fresh install of Windows XP with SP2 and I installed SP3 after that on an old computer that was in need of a new facility. I continued to get the AutoPlay window I went to the CD and DVD players and set everything to TAKE NO ACTION. I wonder if I made a mistake by doing this. I was half way tempted to do the same for drive C, but I did not.  Is there something I can do to correct what I do that I should not have?

  Also, I noticed that my computer is really slow now and it was not before.

  The [NONE] you're referring to means that there are has file extensions associated with things such as Audio CDs, disks and DVDs.

  A "file extension" is the 3-(4-parfois) part of a file name that comes after the period character.  For example, in "Document.doc" file extension is doc.

  Made settings were - as you noted correctly - in the AutoPlay dialog box.  These settings determine what Windows does when a removable storage device is connected.  Depending on the type of multimedia content detected on the device, you can choose from a variety of "Manipulative Autoplay" to deal with this content.

  "Take no action" is not a bad default.

  If you want to change your mind, open my computer and right-click on the icon for a CD/DVD/USB device and select the tab "Autoplay".  You can choose from a variety of types of "content" and then choose which application should open.  For more flexibility, TweakUI--> http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-xp or see

  A number of things could happen here.

  Have you installed all necessary drivers after you reinstalled Windows?

  Have you installed an antivirus application before connecting to the Internet?

  Have you applied all post-sp3 Windows critical updates before you begin to surf the Internet?

  Did you uninstall the trial versions of software antivirus which have been replaced (unless your new Windows installation was a "clean install")?

  Yesterday I installed GamingSDK1.4 and it does not open after completion. I've walked by an officer of Adobe to uninstall, I did. Returned and he was always there, but instead of saying open next to him, he says "up to date" I can't uninstall it. I want to reinstall it to use.

• Windows Explorer Crash when using the control panel

  This is the type of an interesting question that happens to me only sporadically and usually only to a cold start.

  When I shut down the computer completely for cleaning or install something, when restarting, open the Control Panel causes Windows Explorer to crash (note that this is not Internet Explorer).
  
  It restarts immediately, but I lost some of the icons in the taskbar - especially the icon Sound Max.

  If I do a reboot it comes back and I can use the Control Panel normally. Tried to remove items from the start menu, as obviously something is in conflict when it starts but it is like shooting in the dark to find the good start. I even reinstalled W7 with a lot of attention, but it happens once again from time to time. I ran sfc/scannow several times and all is well.

  As long as I don't do a cold reboot it will work very well for weeks without a hitch. (Please no comments about just don't).

  Someone else has a similar problem? My specs are lower and it has not changed when I updated to the latest version of the bios so I suspect something on W7, and I strongly suspect the driver SoundMax which is in fact very old for W7X64.

  All updates are underway, including the latest which was supposed to increase stability for W7 X 64. I had added this update 4/28. An accident 29/4 good. I uninstalled the update and re-installed directly from the microsoft link. Sometimes it works, but not in this case.

  I studied all the information mentioned in the error codes and most of the time, it led to speculation of different people to different causes. I've read that it could be a conflict with the driver Sound Max, this is why I suspect as well that it might involve the Nvidia GPU driver. Changed the GPU driver and no joy. Whenever I have ask W7 to check a solution that is not found. So, it happens once in a while, but there is nothing wrong? At least Microsoft knows something is happening--evidence of the update.

  Hello

  Make sure that Windows Update is turned on and install the update KB980408 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/980408) - April 2010 stability and reliability update for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 is available .

  Issues that this update fixes this update improves the stability and reliability of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 in various scenarios. This update addresses the following issues:

  • Windows Explorer crashes and then restarts when you access a third-party Control Panel item.

  This update solves the problem?

  If this isn't the case, please download this reg from my SkyDrive file:
  http://CID-128fc518635be2dc.SkyDrive.live.com/self.aspx/.public/Ms%20Foren/registry/WER%5E_Explorer.reg

  and double click on the file to import.

  When Explorer crashes, Windows Error Reporting Service creates a dmp under C:\Localdumps . Please download the file to your public Skydrive folder and post the link here. I take to the dump, maybe I can see the cause.

• Where can I find the bluetooth device on control panel of Windows XP?

  I have a wireless printer not communicating with computer.  The directions said to go to the control panel and click on the bluetooth device, but I do not see a device on the control panel. Where can I find the bluetooth device?

  One of reasons behind the first two questions of Vinod, is that not all computers have a Bluetooth built-in support.  Most modern laptops don't, but many computers to office, including the new ones, are not.

  Do you know if your computer has Bluetooth support? If you don't know, what is the brand and model of your computer?

  If you have a laptop computer, is turned on Bluetooth?  Many laptops have a (often Fn + F5) switch that turns radios (Bluetooth or wifi) on and outside.  Check with your computer user Guide.

  Please answer 4th issue of Vinod as well (brand & model printer).
