Why some games and other programs need to be "run as Administrator" mode in 7RC which worked fine in normal mode on 7 beta and vista?

Why some games and other programs must be run in Admin mode in 7RC which worked fine in normal mode on 7 beta and vista?

An example of this is the game Guild Wars (www.guildwars.com). I had problems with this with random programs.

cbello57,
Run as administrator may be required for some games and programs because they have a permission structure different in Vista in Windows 7 (Windows 7 and Vista are different in how to manage certain permissions).

I suggest test you installation of the game in the program by clicking on the Setup file by clicking on "Run as administrator".

This will sometimes solve this kind of situation because it installed the program in a State of high permission.

  • Updated on Windows7 + blank white screen now but which works fine under Ubuntu why?

    I had 14 of Firefox running on Windows 7 and no problems. I've updated again Firefox and when I connected to the Internet, I got was a white screen. Well connected, went well on the site, but did not address tab only in the web address bar and nothing on the page. I tried Internet Explorer and that worked well. Then I stopped and restarted in Ubuntu and tried my Firefox version 22 and it worked fine so I think that something is wrong with the new version of Firefox with Windows 7 now. I don't want to lose all my passwords or I uninstall Firefox and reinstall. If you can tell me how to save my passwords in Firefox 26 (latest version as of 16/01/2014) I'll try to uninstall and reinstall. Thanks for any help you can give me. I prefer to make a fix on this instead of Firefox. I use Ubuntu now send this.

    Thanks Philipp, but I solved the problem. I selected control screen and saved all my passwords in Firefox to another program. Then, I downloaded Firefox 23 (stable version) of the Internet Explorer browser on a USB key. Then, I used CC Cleaner uninstall Firefox on my laptop. I chose to keep my apps and personal information when CC Cleaner asked me if I wanted to (it's free http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner or Google it). Then I installed the stable 23 version of Firefox to my USB key. Start Firefox and everything works great. The problem is a problem with the new version of Firefox, and it's a real problem that should be fixed by Mozilla very soon.

  • Mozilla is slow on some loading sites, other times, sites not to load any. None of the fixes worked... tried all.

    have tried all the fixes, this system could throw to me, honestly tried 98% of them myself already, once more. Anyway my question is that sites like CNN.com, IGN.com, mozilla.org (and some but not all of the related sites) will be hanging and loads very slowly or not at all. This issue just started unexpectedly a few days ago. I was not to load a new software or patch whatever, AFAIK (cannot not talk about auto-updates to date) I don't have this problem in Internet Explorer in all. Things, I tried to remedy the situation:

    1 ran malware bytes, spy-bot, norton antivirus (also disabled all them to guarantee no cofilicts) to find hard-ware or viruses... found nothing

    2 uninstalled firefirefox also deleted firefox folders in C:/users / (username) / appdata/local and roaming, as well as my C:/program files (x 86)... I then reinstalled Firefox

    3 disabled hardware acceleration and also tried on.

    4A ran in safe mode

    5 ran CCleaner

    6 changed my firefox profile

    7 reset firefox

    you have an update for firefox just a minute it y a. seems to have been ironed out the remaining lag in loading pages. Still not sure what all that fixed. I really hate wave of bugs like this cause, it will probably not any use to anyone else their own troubleshooting problems. Well I will end this. Thanks for the help everyone!

  • To an existing dashboard, how can I go back and discovers the source of data for the items in the dashboard? More precisely to determine why the data not displaying on the dashboard for a host where the agents seem to work fine.

    Here are the servers in the cluster.  The active cluster in the attached image is PrdERx2.  The zeros should have a count associated with them equal to zero.

    Thank you

    Barry

    Hi Barry -.

    If the dashboard in question was created with WCF (our Framework Web component that is included with the product), then using the tab design inspecting dashboard design suggested Bart is a good. WCF dashboard get much of their data by querying the Foglight data model so once you are in the editor of WCF, change views to queries drop-down list and see what queries can exist in this module WCF. Test if you find to make sure they return data. Also change the functions drop-down list and see if you can test as well.

    I hope this helps.

  • Alternate thumb-scrollbar-webkit-, - webkit-scrollbar-track and - webkit-scroll bar which works fine in chrome and safari

    Here is my code,

    }
    
    ::-webkit-scrollbar-track {

    }

    You can not style scroll bars on web pages. Only the extensions to do this.

    Note that you are not compliant:

    One place (track), you use -webkit-border-radius: 10px; and border-radius: 10px; and on the other (thumb) only border-radius: 10px;

  • Cannot run a few rare games and programs, error: Windows Explorer crashes

    Original title: Explorer Crash!

    I am running windows xp sp3. My explore blocks every minute. The hook of the office and taskbar, but the programs that run on top continues to operate smoothly and even I can work with them. Then I open the Task Manager and end Explorer and it starts again. It works very well for a minute and then it crashes again.
    Now I am unable to run some games and programs. They close automatically when explore crashes. Help, please!

    If I were you, I would uninstall the problematic Windows Desktop Search (you can always reinstall it later), reboot and see how things work.

    Since it is not supposed to fix a system that may be achieved malicious software, I would then scan your system for malware:

    Download, install, update and do a quick scan with these free malware detection programs (not at the same time):

    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

    SAS will probably be a lot that you can just let it remove tracking cookies.

    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

    The scans by operating clean, restart and see how things work.

    Here's how to solve the Explorer Shell Extensions of (these are generic, but still good instructions for troubleshooting):

    When the Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer) is wrong (especially when right click), begin to suspect third-party add-ons explore extension.

    Those who would be the Explorer extensions that do not belong to Microsoft.  This means that extensions that you have added.  Solution Explorer extensions are generally well and installation of certain applications will install extensions from Explorer solutions for you, give you a choice and sometimes they can be added without your knowledge when you
    install new software.

    Solution Explorer extensions are sometimes added as a new right-click option, you see on folders and files (like the scan of this file, open that file, play this song).

    If there is something in particular that you do during exploration that you know will be the cause of the problem, which will help focus on the problem and the help that you suddenly know, when you have found and corrected.  If you can get there when you want it, make an adjustment and then there is no message the next time you don't do anything, you do, you have found and corrected.

    First of all you need a way to see what modules explore you have installed now and a way to turn them off (not uninstall them) so you can understand that we are at the origin of the problem.  You can have a lot of extensions not installed Microsoft don't even know you about.

    Download ShellExView here to see what Explorer extensions you have loaded:

    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/shexview.html

    ShellExView does not install anything on your computer, simply of runs and displays.

    After launch ShellExView (shexview.exe double click) and acknowledge the security warning, adjust the column widths you see everything
    clearly.  Under Options, choose "Mark non-Microsoft Extensions" and extensions not Microsoft will be in pink, but on some systems which is a difficult color to see, so click on display, choose the columns and move Microsoft column closer to the top (Mount), so you can see on your screen without having to scroll left and right.

    Click on the header of column called Microsoft to sort display (by clicking on the column heading in Microsoft) then all the non Microsoft extensions are at the top and easy to see.  They will say 'No' since they are not Microsoft extensions.

    Non-Microsoft extensions would be things you have added (non-Microsoft) and are what you should be suspect.

    You can also Google the name of a suspect add-on and see if there is any success on the mistakes of the DEP and what other people have done about it.

    You can Google something like:

    Explorer XP crashing

    You must complete your suspect on behalf of adds on.

    See what kind of search results hits you get and are looking for solutions or situations that sound like yours.

    I'm not a defender of trial and error, but I can't think of another way to do...

    Right click and disable the non Microsoft extensions one at a time (or maybe in groups of 3-5), keep a list, so you can enable them again later if you wish. The result of the change is immediate and no reboot is necessary.  Test your failure condition.  If the Explorer starts to act normally, you'll know that some extension you just disabled in this group of 3-5 is the culprit, then you can start to enable them one by one until the Explorer fails again.

    If you recognize all the extensions that have been added or recently downloaded, start with these first.

    Disabling the extension does not uninstall the extension - it is just disabled.  You can always enable it later, so keep track of things by writing them down.

    Disable them one at a time or in small groups (to make things go faster) until your right click does not generate an error, and then restart and try again.  You have disabled the last extension would be suspicious.

    You can also disable all non-Microsoft extensions, restart, test your fault condition and allow them one at a time until you find the one that generates the failure condition.

    If you have a large number of extensions, you can disable them is small groups, 3-5 at a time instead of 1 at a time until your system starts to behave.  When it does not, you will know that the problem is one of the extensions of this small group and you can enable members of the Group at a time until the problem returns, then the problem is with the last extension that you enabled.

    The hope is that you will find extensions that is causing the problem and then you can figure out what on this subject - either uninstall it or see if you can get an update of the author of the extension of their web page.

    I have not your problem, but I can when you toggle extensions, the extension is immediately disabled, so disable an extension does not seem to require a restart, but if you think that you have found the problem, I reboot and repeat the test in any case to be sure the problem disappeared.

    If you post your non-Microsoft extensions list, maybe someone will recognize it as a potential problem.

    If you find the offending extension that's the problem, please let us know what it is that I can add to my list.
