Windows 7 Explorer function search does not work / command prompt
Hello
I searched several messages, but unfortunately have not yet found a solution that worked. My problem: windows Explorer 7 does not at all. This means that type any word in the search box in the upper right corner makes no difference / nothing happens.
I tried solving the problems, I tried to get into safe mode, nothing works. I re-indexed my computer, no effect.
During playback I do a scan with SFC/scannow, I discovered that box "search programs and files" in the lower left corner does not work either. Everything I type, makes the window completely off and if I click on see the results I get the error "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. May not permissions to access you the item', even if I am the owner / administrator of my computer.
Starting from the command-line using SFC/scannow gives the message "you must be an administrator running a console session in order to use the sfc function. This is why I can't use the trick to create another user.
The search function used to work properly until I had an infection by the virus. I've scanned my computer several times with different antivirus scanners, and nothing is found. I assume that the damage has been done at this time there and would like to know what I can do to fix it (I also have problems with other software, Word for example, works well, but guess that's all the.). I don't want to install a third party software to do research like I want my good computer work with the software that came installed when I bought it.
Thanks in advance, Hubert
I found the solution elsewhere (not microsoft site), which worked instantly:
Navigate to this folder,
c:\Users\Your name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\1033\
And delete the file StructuredQuerySchema.bin
Therefore, the search worked well.

No matter what I do, I can't find Vista to work - most of the time, the search will not find the files I'm looking for, although I can see them at the top of the list of files in the directory. I rebuilt the index multiple times with no improvement in the service. In another case, the search will find only files created in October 2009 (that is when I started using Vista), but specific searches do not work in other files, that I moved all the files in this folder to another folder and the result is the same, even if the file is renamed to something different. I also noticed that, in some cases, research fails to recognize a file named re and get back a result if I search the name of the original file (even if the file name has changed significantly).
Simply, research of simple file names which I am accustomed to years of XP do not bring the results I need. I have same useless content search function at all. It was recommended that I find a simple program of research of third party for searches of files, but that's not really answering the question.
I guess I would rather just turn the indexing function OFF set (that I tried), but it does not appear to improve the ability of Vista to find the files I need.

Downloaded Firefox 38.0.1 and now edit/search does not work.
The Question above about nearly everything.
I downloaded Firefox 38.0.1 (I'll never learn) and now edit/search does not work. The search at the bottom of my screen bar disappeared and clicking on EDIT and SEARCH does nothing. Also, Ctl - F does nothing.
FYI, using Windows 8.1.
Someone actually check the compatibility with desktop computers and laptops on the news, or is it more important to be compatible with smart phones?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
- Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/safe+mode
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Try to rename (or delete) the file xulstore.json in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

Satellite A350-13 a - function keys does not work
I have the Satellite A350-13. I installed Windows 7 for 2 weeks.
The function keys does not work although I have installed the Toshiba value added package, which is responsible for the activation of the function keys.
What the solution to this problem?
> Function keys does not work although I have installed the toshiba value added package, which is responsible for the activation of the function keys
Next to the VAP (value added package) you need to install the Flash Utility card support!
Card Flash utility support controls the keys FN and not the VAP! But VAP is also needed.Good bye

Hi asian1955,
Have you tried to download Windows Live from here: http://explore.live.com/windows-live-essentials?os=other this is the latest version of Windows Live. Once you start to install, simply install the components you want, there is no need to install anything if you do not need.

Search does not work in HCM9.1, pt8.52 after installation
Hi I just installed HCM9.1 with Peopletools 8.52 on windows xp 32-bit with Oracle 11 g. This is my first install ever.
When I connect online search does not work (when I click on search on any page that contains a search record it just shows that progress gif image but nothing happens.)
I logged in using PS/PS
any ideas of what I was wrong during installation?
Here are the steps I followed.
1-install Oracle11g
Logic 2-installs web
3. installation of Tuxedo and defined TUX_DIR
PeopleTools 4-installs in C:\pt8.52 and HCM9.1 in c:\hcm9.1 n Verity
5. manually created a database named HRSD by using initHRSD.ora and configured the listner and ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME defined and created the spfile.
then ran the scripts in the documentation to create namespaces, roles, the dbowner etc.
6 set the application designer
7 - loged in Data Mover and installed a demo hcm9.1
8 - ran grant.sql
9 - ran pt851u.sql and pt852u.sql.
10 configured application server and started.
Created a new domain and configured and that you started it. 8 process start
11 set up the web server and started the PIA.
12 - loged in successfully but the search does not work

9 - ran pt851u.sql and pt852u.sql.HCM9.1 is now delivered based on Peopletools 8.51 (since Peature Pack 1, Dec-2010), you should successfully upgrade to make it work on Peopletools 8.52. However, you've made a mistake here, you should not run rel851, but only rel852. Second mistake, being HCM9.1 > = 9.0, you must run rel852un not rel852u. These errors can explain much of the search does not work. Not to mention the copy projects and a couple of AE to run.
Delete the database and restarting from scratch is probably the best way to make you application is working correctly.Nicolas.
