Why don't the FOLDER WINDOWS remember their size and position when last closed windows program how do.

All files should be able to recall it size and position ANY TIME THEY ARE OPEN.

The hot - fix http://support.microsoft.com/kb/979560 (however caused heart attack when the computer would not start after the installation) is a nice step in the right direction but not a complete solution.  Windows foldershould open in the State they were when closed last.  Already, they remember the way their information is displayed, then why not their size and their position.

Windows has always been very weak in the area of memory of the Office Organization.  God forbid your icon layout should be messed up.

Bravo on the labelling of the things in the taskbar, but why not the desktop computer?

Here is the article that I found that explains boredom and suggests shellfolderfix

  • Why don't the folder Player\Art Cache\Local MLS \windows\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\App Data\Local\Microsoft\Media have the cover art for all tracks in iTunes

    I worked on issues related to the time to do a full scan with MSE.  I discovered that the MSE scan spent 4 hours going through the files in "\Windows\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\App Data\Local\Microsoft\Media Player\Art Cache\Local MLS". With the information of the community, I was finally able to access these files and watch. I was more then a bit surprised to find that the cover is the cover art for tracks I have in iTunes. I deleted some files and found out that the cover for iTunes still works. Windows Media Player is not just music cover art.

    So anyone know why Windows Media Player load cover art files on my system for iTunes titles? It loads the same cover for each track in an album don't ask me there are as many files in this folder.

    I have disabled the service "wmpnetwk" and if it does not start even when I restart the computer. Once again thanks to the community. So if I just delete these files that will be the end of the matter?

    The Player downloads album art to a database online where the information is provided by a variety of non-Microsoft, as AMG data providers.

    The Player downloads album art when you rip a CD. To do this, the Player tries to match the CD for an entry in the online database. If it finds a match, the Player automatically downloads the media information that is available for the CD, including album art. In addition, the reader travels periodically your library songs lacking album art. If it can match a song that is missing from the album art to an entry in the database online, the player will download the missing album art. For information about changing how the Player downloads album art and other media information, see the question bring the player to the difficulty of the media information automatically in media information: frequently asked questions.

    Why is album art missing sometimes?

    The player would not be able to download album art from the database in the following situations:

    • You are not connected to the Internet during extraction of a CD.

    • You are connected to the Internet, but the online database is missing album art (or there is no media information at all) for the CD you are ripping.

    • Your system administrator has prevented your computer to download items such as album art from the Internet.

    • You ripped the CD using one program other than Windows Media Player; doing so could prevent the player from a match in the database online.

    Finally, if the online database contains album art wrong for a CD, the Player downloads this pouch.

    The following procedures describe the methods that you can use to fix missing or incorrect album art.

    Yes. They expect sRGB.

    So copy your master file. Flatten it. Go edit > convert to profile and choose sRGB. And just to be safe, I would not send low file. Go Image > Mode and choose 8-bit per channel.

  • How can I change the default setting of font size and type when using e-mail?

    When sending an email, I have a default setting of the Arial font to 10 points. If I change what it comes down to Arial next time I use it. I don't know how to change the default setting.

    Hi Robin,

    What e-mail program you are using (name and version)? Windows Mail, Windows Live Mail, Outlook, a program that you access through your browser (and if yes, what name and version of the browser?) something else (and what version and/or year of this product)?

    What Version of Vista you are using (for example, 32-bit Vista Home Premium SP2 or other)?

    Thank you!

    P.S. I am pretty sure that the procedure is simple and can be done-, but it varies depending on whether you use, so I want to provide the information that is applicable to you.

    EDIT: Just a few alternatives which may help:

    If Windows Mail, go to Tools / Options / compose / font settings (ditto for fonts Signature if you use signatures) and change it to anything you want.  Save the changes and close Windows Mail, and then reopen it.  Your default sending policy should now be what you set with this configuration.

  • Windows 8 doesn't remember size and position of the previously open programs

    I hope that if there is no solution for this problem, at least it can be taken as feedback on the next update of WIndows 8.

    The question is:

    I use Windows 7 and WIndows 8 at home to work.

    Now, Windows 7 remembers the size and position of all my previously opened programs (I mean by "programs": EXCEL, INTERNET EXPLORER, FILES, WINDOWS MAIL, WORD, POWERPOINT and others), so that when opens again, they open in the same place and size that they were finally on the closure.

    So I can arrange some programs to occupy some space on the desktop, and each time that I open them they will open in the same place.

    However, WIndows 8 does NOT. When you use the desktop computer in Windows 8 even after organizing the progams to where I like them every time, the next time I open them they will NOT open in the same place or size.

    Or sometimes it does, but only once, but then not do the next time.

    In any case, it is so NOT intuitive and it is a huge concern to be their resizing each time.

    Anyone know WHY? and more importantly if there is a solution? or, where and how can I let Microsoft have this feedback so that the Windows 8.1 update can include a fix for this?

    Additional data:

    System: Windows 8 64-bit (w/Panel touchscreen desktop PC)
    I use my taskbar on the top of the screen in my Windows 7 and Windows 8 PCs.

    Thank you!!

    Hello

    Resize the window of Windows Explorer how you want and then close.

    Next time, when you open the Windows Explorer window, you should remember that the windows of size when it was closed the last time.

    If this isn't the case, then this problem occurs because the registry to the folder options settings are incorrect.

    Note: 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.

    (a) delete the following registry subkeys:

    o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags

    o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU

    o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\Bags

    o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\BagMRU

    o HKEY_CURRENT_USER Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU

    (b) Re-create the following registry subkeys:

  • Why don't the mpg2 files allow to move to different parts of the clip in XP? Vista lets me.

    Hello.

    Why don't the mpg2 files allow to move to different parts of the clip in XP? Vista lets me.

    Desktop: Windows XP 32-bit Home Edition. Laptop: Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit.

    I have a DVD I paid for and used a software to copy video clips (unprotected) to mpeg2 files. There are 4 of them. It was a DVD recorded in 2004 at a dance event. It is not a commercial version.

    XP: The 1st clip allows me to open it in Windows Media Player 11 and I can drag autour in various places to look at different times of the clip. The clip of 2nd, 3rd and 4th are locked and won't let me pick different times to watch. They will play through.

    In Vista: I can't the cursor around anywhere, then select any time to look into all parts of clips with THE 4 clips.

    I took the clips, put them on a USB stick, moved in both sense between each system. I tried two more than once.

    I used the software to rip the clips on XP and Vista. It's the same result. The fault seems to lie with XP.

    Perhaps some of this DVD had some kind of protection against copying for XP but not Vista (and other OS of potentially). Or it's the encoder?

    My account has been locked or something, I couldn't answer.

    It is therefore probably encriptación with Windows Media player. I can read files with RealPlayer on Windows XP and Vista in Windows Media Player.

    Tried to use my software for video editing, re - export files in mpeg2. But each of them had sound problems. So, this is how the DVD is probably protected.

    I have something on Vista operating systems and a workaround with XP using RealPlayer for the original files. I'll keep looking. It's mine to archive all I want at this stage.

    Oh sorry, you will need to obtain from another computer Windows Vista or your install disc (if you have one, these instructions are here).  I have just the zip and give you a complete file of fonts, but it's against the license (and technically to the United States law) for them to be distributed.

  • Gateway DX4300 - how to restore the drivers to the folder window.old.

    Hi, I just reformatted my PC. lost all my drivers and ask you how to restore the drivers to the folder window.old. My PC is a gateway dx4300 built in maps Ethernet and video. Unfortunately the gateway doesn't have these drivers.__Thanks.

    Oh, how it would help if truly comprehensive published Gateway of material form for a machine... :(

    I only am not surprised you found the driver for the modem didn't work - the only one I found was a Vista driver in proportion; Server 2 k 8 x 64 probably don't like that too much.  ;)
    But, a little research on Google (and, looking at the list of Vista drivers for this machine) does not give something useful: your card network (the thing you need more) seems to be a Marvell Yukon 88E8075 (possibly 88E8071) Gigabit NIC.  These drivers are available directly from Marvell: http://www.marvell.com/support.html
    Just select "88E8075" in the menu dropdown part number, then take the package Windows Server 2008 SP2 (x 64).  Install it, get the machine online, run Windows Update.  I am betting that WU will be able, at a minimum, give you work pilots 'real' (rather than the generic or non-existent drivers you have) so that you can sort.
    Honestly, I'm surprised that there is no drivers for this NETWORK adapter - it's a fairly common piece.

  • Is it possible to recover files deleted from your Recycle Bin, after the failure of the computer after the backup hard drive contained in the folder windows.old, including system files?

    Very well. My computer is messed up awhile back and my friend saved my whole hard drive, the files system and everything, then wiped and restored, then ALL put in a folder called "windows.old" that I can access my hard drive. So since he has saved the files system and everything, I'll be able to recover my old files I had deleted before it was erased, if (hopefully) they is not replaced? If so, what filepath can I go in?

    Hi thatonehxckid,

    The content in the trash is not saved in the folder windows.old during a custom installation.
