  • Sort for anchor on Office Windows that remain visible despite the clicking on 'show desktop '?

    Hi all

    Windows 7. I have two monitors and want to keep the two Windows Explorer windows (list of files) open at all times, even if I click on the 'Show desktop' button in the lower right corner (the one to minimize all open windows).

    Is this possible?

    Thank you

    Matt

    Sorry Matt, who is simply not possible.  The button show desktop is coded in the Explorer hard shell.

    It may be possible with another program or perhaps a script, you could program to a hotkey on your keyboard.  But that could be quite advanced, I'm not familiar with any script like him.

  • How can I disable the button show desktop in the lower right of the screen of the windows operating system 7?

    has the bar at the bottom of the screen from left to right: the Start button, usually several icons quick lauch, notifications of State, date and time, and last BUT NOT LEAST has RECTANGLULAR BOX "SHOW DESKTOP".

    I always automatically move the slider at the bottom right of the screen so that it is not in the way and I know where he is.

    However, microsft has decided to put a 'show desktop' button in their windows 7 OS at this place.

    I DON'T WANT TO SHOW THE DESKTOP WHEN I FIND THE MOUSE HERE.

    HOW to REMOVE or disable THIS KEY SO THE PAGE that I READ DOES'NT DISAPPEAR?

    Thank you

    You can right click an empty area of the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, click Properties and then on the tab taskbar, properties, uncheck "Use Aero Peek to preview the desktop" after you do this, the rectangular box will always be there and you can click it to show the desktop, but it will appear with the mouse just sit there.

  • Move the windows on the desktop

    Hello

    I have noticed lately that when I reinstall a window on my desktop, it becomes transparent, simply to show its border.  Is there a way to make the opaque windows when they move the Office?

    I don't know if this is a characteristic of my video display driver or if it can be changed in Windows.

    I would like any advice or comments on this situation.

    It also happens on my Windows 7 laptop.

  • Show Desktop icon is missing from the Quick Launch bar

    Original title: Windows Search

    I have Windows XP, home edition, SP3, IE8, and I lost one of my desktop icons that I use frequently. This is the icon that is always in the taskbar, as well as a few others. The icon is what opens on the desktop whenever you click on it. It is a white square that looks like a block of office paper, with a figure of what looks like a pencil or pen appearing thereon.  Somehow, somehow, it was deleted, and I can't find where to get it back. I have been in the control panel on 'VIEW' and no luck, only we in the menu of the taskbar and start and he can find, checked a large number of menus that contain the word "Desktop" in it and I clicked on a large number of them also without a bit of luck too. Once more, he is a white icon and is still in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen of the monitor. Someone knows must return this icon... any help would be appreciated.

    Yes. This control simply allows you to show or hide. It does not change the contents of the desktop (C:\Users\\Desktop) user-defined folder. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

  • Article "Desktop" (different from the "Show Desktop") in the Start - Menu accidentally deleted

    I accidentally deleted an item in the Start Menu on a Windows Vista-based computer, owned by a friend.   She wants new, BUT - I can't find a way to restore it.  (I can't use system restore - he would like to say again too many other changes since.)

    The element called "Desktop".  I have this marking, thinking it was "Show Desktop": but, apparently, it was completely different.  He opened a column with the icons scroll, in alphabetical order of the name, all display on the desktop.  It wasn't a normal Windows Explorer view - more like all the right-hand panel of the window of Windows Explorer, restricetd on width of an icon.

    My friend has found very useful (indeed, I would like to have on all the computers I work with).  I would be extremely grateful if someone could tell me how to get it back.

    I know of a menu "desktop" like that, but it is on the taskbar.

    to access, right-click on the icon in the start menu or an empty area of the taskbar, and then choose Properties. Click on the Toolbars tab. check the box next to "Desktop". Click on apply. Is that what you meant?

  • How to save a position and dimensions of windows on the desktop?

    How to save a position and dimensions of windows on the desktop?

    In Vista, there are limited means of control Windows and many of those who apply to the general patterns and not to individual windows.

    The following includes about what Vista can offer in this area, and I don't think that this will do exactly what you want (even if it is possible that the first option with references to other related articles can do a little of that, but I don't think that he can do everything or entirely as you wish without 3rd party help) except for the 3rd party program that winsizeme also mentioned below.  That may do the trick:

    Here's how to change the default template for a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets thefolder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to resetthe Windows Explorer folder view settings, disable Automatic folder Type discovery and increase theview of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.

    It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with,open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the goodFile menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free program WinSizeMehttp://www.pcmag.com/article2/0, 2817,2339650,00.asp to resize them and record the sizes and locations (I changed the program that mentioned in the article, because even if it is a Vista article, the 3rd referenced application part it does not indicate speciiquement is compatible with Vista so that it doesn't).  I have never personally used this program myself so I can't say for some it will achieve your goals, but from what I've read on this subject, it should do the trick (although I don't think it will be automatic - you may need to set each window you want to save in this way - but that's about all that's available if you need to decide whether or not this alternative is better or) (no).  I'm not certain if it applies to programs or only records - but since it's free you can test and see if it helps you with your situation (it may be that it is useful in some cases and not the worth or effective in others - it of for you to decide (but considers that there is really no other alternative that those presented here - just Vista is not this type of detailed features except to a lesser extent) as described in section 1 above).

    Here is another article on how to modify the columns in Windows Explorer and sort in Vista:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/108665-column-customize.html.  This will show you how Add, Remove, move, change the widthand change the sort order of the columns in Windows Explorer in the way that you want.

    Here is another article on how to change the display of the default folders in Vista (but she claims it is not a perfect solution and can revert to the previous behavior is not as good as the prior links provided:http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-10019957-68.html.)  I include it only because it is an option - but also what he says it is not a very good alternative (but if none of the other works, it may be worth).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
