  • Why should I Windows 8 for the 30 minute increments in the parental control?

    As a developer of software using languages and platforms of Microsoft, I understand how planning works in an application. Why should I upgrade to Windows 8 to get the opportunity to restrict access timed to a PC safe family 30 minutes increments? This is no logic, except if it is half cooked to inform users to upgrade. This is a feature I've wanted since we began using the parental control and I can only assume the developers actually do not use the product, they have created because it really shouldn't been missed for this long. It should also be a simple change in the code to check every 30 minutes instead of 60. Maybe the team of parental controls overlap or had their budget reduced to the point that they cannot make such a simple plus change. I understand, I am in the software. I know it's less than constructive but it's annoying to know different. It's annoying to 'upgrade' to 2012 Essentials see virtually no difference in the features. Your users are not YOU!

  • Windows Explorer crashes every 2 Minutes like clockwork

    Hello

    A quick Google search, it seems a lot of people have this problem, but with a few differences.
    My problem is that for these last two days, Windows Explorer has started crashing, almost like clockwork, almost every 2 minutes or more (as confirmed its reliability). I tried everything I know to find the problem, but came to nothing.
    Here are my specs:
    Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
    Intel Core 2 Duo PC TG5750 @ 2.00GHZ
    RAM: 2.0 GB
    I tried to run Windows Update to see if that would help, but it's not download anything. It just happens to 0KB and 0% and nothing happens. Naturally, when Windows Explorer hangs, it must update Windows with it.
    I ran a few system cleared my startup speed performance, but nothing else. He does not come back on other potential failures.
    I looked at doing a system restore, but it says that there is no restore point. I created one, but this is obviously useless as the restore point is now in the scenario where Windows Explorer crashes.
    I can still run programs like Outlook or Google Chrome, but Windows Explorer plant, yet no matter what I do. I have installed all the programs in the last two days so I'm really at a loss as to what is happening.
    I also restarted my computer several times, to no effect.
    Other that completely re install Windows using the installation disc, I don't know.

  • Windows Media Player volume control does not work during DVD playback.

    When I play a DVD in Windows Media Player or Windows Media Center I can't adjust the volume with the volume control of the program or main Windows volume control.  Simply sound 100% flight.  It's on a HTPC connected to an A / V recevier, so the only way to adjust the sound with the volume of the receiver control.  When I play any other type of multimedia (avi, mp3, etc.) in the two WMP or WMC in the program volume control is working properly.  The interesting part is, when I play a DVD using VLC Player or Cyberlink Power DVD the volume setting in the program as well as the main Windows volume control works correctly.  This leads me to believe it's a software is not a hardware problem.  I think that WMP and WMC using the same "engine" so the same problem knocking them both.

    Other info:

    Windows 7 64-bit.

    Windows Media Player 12 version

    Audio is routed to the receiver via the digital coaxial

    For what it's worth, this same problem occurred with the same exact material when I'm running Vista 32 bit.

    All other software is the latest version with all updates installed.

    Any ideas are welcomed and appreciated.  Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    Reinstall the WMP and WMC application and see if it works very well.

    1. open the Control Panel -> programs and features.

    2. click on Windows to enable or disable features in the left pane.

    3 expand the multimedia features, disable Windows Media Player. Click Yes to continue, and then click OK to exit. Then restart.

    Note: If you turn off your WMP, Windows Media Center will be off either. You may need to reconfigure the settings for Windows Media Center after her reactivation.

    4. open or turn off Windows features turn on again. Functionality in Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center. Turn it back on.

    5. launch Windows Media Player, initialize the program.

    PS: If you turn off your WMP, Windows Media Center will be off either. This does not happen when we choose to turn off MCE.

  • Why my Firefox window minimize to half the size, with the bottom half of the display of the window under Firefox one?

    Don't know what happened, but the problem went away on its own.

  • Is it possible to stop Windows 8 snaps every idle minute?

    Whenever I leave the computer (windows 8) or simply turn for more than a minute, the computer locks and I have to reconnect. Help! I have not found solutions to work! Battery advanced options did not work, my computer is supposed to never turn the screen or go to sleep! However, it blocks every minute! I got this computer 3 days only! and windows 8 for the same amount of time!

    My suggestion:
    Since there is no apparent working solution, Microsoft should do a windows 8 update fixing this problem. The update should prevent the computer hang when idle, except if specified to do so. The update MUST be turned off in the month, or I'll lose my patience.
    Even though I love Microsoft, if they don't fix Windows 8, they will begin to lose steam and get left behind in the world of technology. They must step up their game and give people what they want and what they need. from effectively controlling the forums. and this post.

    I found this way. Right-click on an empty space in the desktop, click Personalize, go to the screensaver below on the right, then when the pop up screen saver settings, go down to where it says wait and change what that time you want. Even I don't think that you need a screen saver turned on to make it work. It works for me, I have my computer lock now after ten minutes of inactivity.

    Just a few ideas...

    Large, complex projects are prone to problems.
    If you create several small projects and publish (Save)
    each format .wmv or .avi movie to a folder on
    your hard drive, you can then import the clips collected
    DVD Maker and each one becomes a scene
    (Chapter)... you can have up to 18 scenes.

    ===

    Your source files might have compatibility issues...

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv or dv - avi
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    ===

    It may be interesting to try to open Movie Maker and go to...
    Tools / Options / Compatibility tab and disable all the
    filters / OK.

    ===

    Publication (save) the project to the DV - AVI or WMV
    film in Movie Maker format and then import the
    movie DVD Maker file may be worth a try.

  • Why Firefox log out of Web sites every few minutes?

    I'm having a problem where I get connected off Web sites automatically every few minutes. No matter what the website is (Facebook, e-mail, forums etc.) once I have connected, after a few minutes of browsing I'll be disconnected again. I tried to reinstall Firefox and have cleared my cookies/cache several times, but it's always the case. I use Firefox for years and it is the first time something like this happened so I guess it could be linked to the last update. Someone at - it ideas?

    A user who has value Firefox "never remember history" and therefore automatically part in private browsing mode has reported this problem. I don't know that we figured how why they have been affected - that is to say, private navigation changed?

    Not sure that this is a factor in your case, since did you a Reset.
