Windows 7 Aero Peek doesn't work don't always

I have installed and reinstalled windows 7.  I also installed a better video card and am still having the same problem.  The peek aero on the taskbar works find but after that my computer sits for a while without being used the pop-up window no longer works and all I get is a text box.  They don't come until I restart the computer. Any suggestions?

still no luck. It has already been set to 1.  I'm going nuts.  It's fustrating as the _____. The only thing that seems now restore it is a restart.

I think that I could restore my system to the condition of the plant and try an upgrade installation.  I really prefer a clean install, but I'm at the point where I think I'll try something else.

  • Windows 7 - Aero Peek doesn't work

    Hello!

    Well, it looks like Aero peek working at all. It is activated in the task bar, and in the task 'Visual effects', everything is selected. I am also unable to flip flop.

    I use Windows vista edition Home premium that I just bought.
    Any advice?

    Hello Nico884,

    With all the steps that have been taken to solve the problem, it is rather likely, not a setting, but a corrupt user profile. You will not lose any software that you have installed by using a new user profile. You can easily transfer your data to the new profile so, take a look at the difficulty of a user profile is corrupted.

  • Aero peek doesn't work do not

    Aero peek doesn't work! When I put my mouse on the taskbar at the bottom of my computer, it shows just the words and not the smaller window icon. When I go to the properties of the taskbar, it is gray and I can't enable or disable it. I read some of the other issues people here and I didn't know that Office 2007 can be part of the problem. I have Office 2010 could this be the problem? This air look was one of the features that Windows boasted of and now it does not work? I'm not happy about it and nobody seems to have a solution for it! Why not??? I want answers please.

    You must have the Aero Glass theme enabled to use Aero Peek. Right-click on your desktop, click Customize > select Windows Aero under Aero themes.

  • Aero Peek doesn't work now does not

    Here's all the sordid details.  Mobile workstation HP 8760w with Nvidia Quadro 3000 M GPU, 8 GB of RAM, Windows 7 64-bit, 128 GB SSD,... etc. 18 months of use, has been remarkable.  Last week, Aero Peek suddenly stopped working. I tried all sorts of things, including the following, without result;

    (1) restoration of the system of at least three different times, earlier (no updates were applied before failing Aero).

    (2) deleted the cache of WIndows Experience Index and re-reun coast at least a dozen times (it must be deleted or it crashes) (result of-7, 1-7.5)

    (3) personalization troubleshooting Aero reports without errors or questions.

    (4) Microsoft FIxIt Aero Troubleshooter says my video can't run Aero (though again, it has 18 months).

    (5) deleted, updated, modified, deleted, updated, changed... For the Quadro 3000 M NVIDIA drivers (even to aid version of HP on their Web site).

    (6) update of the BIOS and other firmware/drivers from HP on this laptop.

    7) opened a case with Nvidia (still in the wait - they ask me if I have uninstalled and reinstalled it, even though I told them that I have 10 times).

    (8) tried to run without Nvidia software installed at all.

    (9) checked for EnableAeroPeek registry entry by many other suggestions and articles. Even some added and then removed the other.

    (10) created a new Admin profile locally on the laptop.

    (11) run a SFCScan and it came back fine.

    Aero options do not appear in the Visual effects and the opton use Aero Peek in the properties of the Start Menu is grayed out.  It sent me down a lot, a lot of articles.  No resolution.  Everyone has been through this pain?

    I'll put my SSD in another laptop as she (we bought 4 of them at the same time) to see if it's related material... but nothing else that seems the Aero affected, so I'm skeptical, it's going to do anything.  I'm just * hope * Miss me something.

    If you have updated your Windows then uninstall the update of platform for Windows 7 (KB2670838) and your problem should be solved.

    Before I updated my Windows this month I just checked if Microsoft still offer this update. This is in the optional list. I installed so I thought to manually upgrade to IE10 because he wasn't in the IE9 update list. So I did manually and after that check updates again and to my surprise this update has disappeared completely. I have an old PC as well, and after installing all the updates I still have no problems so far. I recommend that you upgrade to IE10 after uninstalling this update (if you updated with that and faced the problem) to get rid of the update forever. But do it at your own risk, because I never updated my machine with this defective update and see if that caused any problems with my machine.
  • Overview of the bar of tasks Aero or aero peek doesn't work do not

    Hi, I use Windows 7 Enterprise and I recently lost my overview of the taskbar. As usual, I went through Microsoft Community and checked for solutions. Bouquet of ideas were just to use the theme AERO or through advanced Visual effects and by selecting the Advanced setting to improve the appearance etc. etc. NOTHING HAS WORKED. Then I tried opening 'gpedit.msc' and checking if "Disable the taskbar thumbnails" is enabled or disabled. He showed "not configured", so I changed to disabled and restarted my laptop. Yet once, IT did NOT WORK for ME.  So I thought to post this question myself.

    Please if anyone has the solution to work, help me. Its quite difficult to work without a preview when you need to keep switching between different tasks.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Windows 7 - Aero Peek window previews flicker when displayed not allowing not the window selection.

    When I move my mouse over one of the icons in the taskbar much of the time it will not display the Aero peek for windows previews. When he does it usually blinks for a few seconds then does not appear. The odd time, keep it visible it will allow me to get an overview of the windows by bringing to the forefront through one of miniature windows flying over my mouse but when I click to select a window it goes back to what I was on earlier. In the case of multiple windows of the same type, for example to say Firefox and download manager in firefox by clicking on the firefox icon in the taskbar is nothing, until I navigate to and close one of the two windows manually. It became a major problem with my daily use of my computer so much so, in fact, that I returned to the use of Linux Mint during the bulk of my computer daily as it does not take me an excessive amount of time to navigate between windows. If anyone has suggestions as to how this can be fixed it would be much apreciated and would allow me to start using Windows 7 even more.

    I tried to run the troubleshooter several times with no results yet. The driver is up to date and working properly, I tried unintsalling, restart and reinstall the driver 64-bit Windows 7, with no change in the problem. I can try a reinstall of Windows 7 because it won't cause a lot of data loss with separate OS and partitions of data.

  • Wake on LAN doesn't work don't not on my 8.1 Windows R7

    I can't get my R7 running Windows 8.1 to wake up from sleep with a WoL «Magic Packet» State I use a Plugable USB2 (6 AX88178/Realtek RTL8211CL) ethernet adapter. I have six other PCs on my home network, all running Windows 7, and WoL works very well on all of them.

    I activated the WoL function in the bios of R7 and the device settings for the NIC Plugable (for which I have downloaded the latest drivers from Plugable), and I tried to wake up the R7 with the QuickStart feature, on and outside. The R7 is lying just through it all.

    Any suggestions?

    vvprad, thanks for your response. But note that if you uncheck the 'disable', the 'magical' 'waking up' boxes and as the two gray outside. Apparently, let the PC to disable the NETWORK adapter in order to have the rest of the NIC in the PC. Makes no sense, but it's the way Win7 Win8 do.

    Anyway, I tested my NIC USB on your laptop Dell Win7. WoL did not work it either until I enabled wake USB in the bios. So if you use a USB NIC, to look for the right settings for the NETWORK card and USB. As you suggest with the suggestion of USB power setting.

    But here's the gist: I unplugged the NIC port USB3 on my R7 and connected to the USB2 port and WoL woke up. The USB NIC did everything perfectly using the port USB3, but not of WoL.

    You can test this to close the window of course:

    Insert the 2 buttons or smart shape used as buttons (as of the end of course buttons).

    The first button apply an action to run javascript and in the script window, use this script: parent.close)

    The second button apply an action to run javascript and in the script window, use this script: top.window.close)
