Windows 7 Starter Ctrl + _ have stopped working TOGETHER.

I recently bought a netbook (Samsung NF210) and it worked very well at the beginning. But as I continued to add update and install Service Pack 1, I found that all the CTRL + what did not work. My windows + all that and the alt + whatever are all working. I thought it would be my keyboard so I decided to check if my Ctrl button was working then I turned on this feature, where you mouse is lost you can press Ctrl and it will appear and that works very well, it's not my keyboard. I have no idea why this is happening... I rebooted and it was fine for about 5 minutes and then again... Is there a problem with my version of Windows? Y at - it an option that I must have accidentally clicked or something? I find it difficult to work without these shortcuts. Help will be very appreciated. Thanks :)

I confirm that it is a hardware problem. My entire keyboard has been replaced.

My applogies to Microsoft to blame it was SP1.

  • Portege R500 - ctrl keys have stopped working

    Hello

    Two control keys have stopped working on my laptop. The fact that it is both of them gives to think that there isn't something physically wrong with the key. I can't do a ctrl + letter for example to copy, paste, select all, or again ctrl + alt + delete

    Can anyone suggest how to recover these keys?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    A combination of keys that would disable the CTRL buttons does not for me.
    But I recommend that you check the options of common keyboard as etc., FN + F12 FN + F10, Capslock, FN + F11

    In addition, you could test the laptop with an external USB keyboard.
    If the CTRL works using an external keyboard, this problem would be related to the hardware problem.

  • Bookmarks have stopped working in Firefox 41.0.1

    Bookmarks have stopped working (i.e. I can't create new ones) in Fx 41.0.1. My old favorites are still there and they still work as expected. In the past, when I created a bookmark (' bookmarks > Bookmark this page') I would get a dialog box so that I could determine whenre the bookmark has been going. Now I get nothing, and I can't find any new bookmark.

    I don't know exactly when Fx itself 41.0.1 upgrade, but I first noticed this problem 2-3 days ago.

    Hi, it is possible that the update has interfered with one of your extensions - a number you need! So, try Firefox Mode safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    If it's OK in Mode without failure, you will need to temporarily disable all of your extensions one by one until you find the culprit.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

  • Assassin's Creed and Hitman have stopped working, is there a solution?

    I have Creed of Assassin's I, II and brotherhood, Hitman: Silent Assassin, Hitman:Blood Money, Hitman:Contracts and the original 47 Hitman:Codename.  Now one of the seven will load and read, but it's the only program, the only one that does not appear on the list of installed programs, being the Codename 47.

    These games, used to work just fine until Ubisoft has improved the Game launcher to 2.x software and now all my games that are installed have stopped working and fail to finish loading.  They claim that the pitcher throws other programs on the PC outside their software.  Now none of them work, including other games that are not Ubisoft.  I tried CCleaner, uninstall, then reinstall, etc. anything.  They seem to have changed some of the files base within the Pro Win7 OS I use.  It of very frustrating and lost more time to try to nail down trying to find the changes that have been made.  Short of a new Win7Pro facility, which would empty all the software that I installed and if I do that I can as well wipe the entire hard drive, and then start over again, I really don't want to do.  I'm afraid that if I buy a new game that uses graphics to high-end of my CPU and GPU capabilities, it does not work either and it will just be wasting my money and time as well.  Is there any real help to this other question that the stars from scratch?

    I built my own off the shelf components, is a system of Wintel ASUS mother board and video card (ATI 1 GB), Intel processor i7 quad core 950 3.07 GHz, Win7Pro, 6 GB of DDR3 RAM, etc.  just a notch below extreme, built when the 950 had just been out for a month or 2.  It was and is still, works very well.  Somehow the OS files seem to have been changed.  All other software such as AutoCAD and other rendering software, works very well.

    So I think a Ubisoft launcher feature is supposed to prevent you from having to be online when you play the games?
    All of these downloads of steam games or are they a mix of disk and download?

    Have you tried disabling your Virus Ainti?

    I still don't think that the "launcher" mess with Windows is just a buggy application and is may be in conflict with something else.
    You can try running through clean boot to see if there are conflicts.
    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    If there is no joy in the light of the foregoing, and the game specific forums (I see there are a lot of entries when you perform a search on the web about the Ubisoft Launcher) do not always provide a fix, I'd be inclined to do a system restore and to uninstall the game and return as it is or wait until Ubisoft unravel the 'Launcher '.

    "Ubisoft and Steam do not have the Hitman series.
    Quite right - EIDOS

    "They really need to regroup."
    You're not wrong. Beginning with a focus on customer satisfaction and service rather than deal with the honest customers like the enemy, but unfortunately, Ubisoft is not alone in this attitude, it is pervasive throughout the "industry" of the game.
    Another reason for the bad attitude of the suppliers of computer software is the people
    the Government doesn't understand computers and let software vendors
    away with things than the other mfg cannot when it comes to the marketing of a defective product.
    Here in Oz, we can return a store bought game that wreaks havoc on
    remove the machine as this game is made to your (not offering is not an alternative to not install the Launcher is an abrogation of our rights), as something that does not work as intended or designed is deemed defective, but dealing with one online
    provider as the steam is a minefield with little protection by the law of sustainable consumption.

    Games Steam can be a problem. What I hated on steam before getting broadband services (only on 18mos ago) was having to update the game before you play. Even offline.
    I was unable to play (purchased on disk) FEAR2 for nine months because of the huge (a little less than 2 GB) patch. When HL2 is released, it took, I don't even remember how long, to be able to play the game for the same reason.
    I should have returned FEAR2 (HL2 came with a gpu) but I new that I have to get broadband in the end.  so I don't bother.
    Steam is fortunately fairly well adjusted these days. As long as you have
    Broadband and let the steam do as he wishes on the Steam Client and updates when you start Steam line, and then play games
    of steam offline is no problem.
    The new kids on the block are still going but one, ' to make the consumer a
    Beta-test of Guinea pig while we try to imitate the steam ' phase.
    GFWL (not exactly new) is always a big fight that I would be a little further
    (in my dreams).
    Come EA from what I've read is not much fun for some either.

  • I opened PS3 and see a window "license for this product has stopped working". Help!

    I have the PS3.  A few months ago, I had an iMac 27 "10.11.2 opportunity and transferred my PS3 (plus any creative suite 3) top.  There was a window that says please register in 5 days or it will be inactive (or something like that). I did what I was supposed to do and have appreciated the help of PS3 on this new iMac.  Everything worked very well. Last night I shut down my computer before a separate software has been updated done and makes the iMac not able to start.  The only option I found was to erase the hard drive and install using Time Machine. (I use the bad terminalogy)   I did and everything was successful until I opened PS3 and see a window "license for this product has stopped working".  Help!  It is said one solution is to uninstall. When I went to the Adobe Uninstaller I saw NO PS3, but see icon with "Add or remove Adobe Creative Suite 3 Production Premium" with a small arrow, that I have the means to think his alias and I don't know where he lives. Can someone help me get back my PS3?  Thank you!

    Please stay on point and help me with my problem of PS3 and not encourage me to upgrade to what is current.  I have SP6 here, but want to keep the PS3 will.

    Thank you.

    Debbie

    Whenever you retrieve from a backup Time Machine, you will break licenses and need to run a repair. I know. I did it twice. As the instructions given in the doc to Adobe using own isn't enough for someone new to the procedure, I set up a screenshot guide.  Layout error 150:30 opening Photoshop cs4 on Macbook Pro

    If you go through this guide to screenshot and do exactly as indicated, you won't make those mistakes. Perhaps it would be good to read first. I carefully put in place this guide, my instructions are good in their current form, do not do anything else.

    In the first post #11, I forget to add a space after "sudo python" before you drag the licenserecovery.py to the command line, and I never load any type of break line or before you drag the script.

    Second: In #15 if you simply slide the script into the window, it will be on the same line.  What you see is the packing of command to work around the size of the window, but it is always on the same line and will run when you enter your password.

    You will also see that there is a space between "python" and the script in the screenshot.

    Again, if you are new to this, read first.

  • My default metro apps have stopped working on one of my accounts (1).

    My default metro apps have stopped working on one of my accounts (1). This is a new computer with pre-installed software, and I don't want to do a system restore. I tried troubleshooting app now prevail, my norton antivirus was recently deleted, reinstalled and updated Norton. It seems that the only applications that open are those who go to the old UI (32-bit) screen. I can't call same pdf because an application is used to open it. Simply, it opens and closes almost immediately. I got an error "the remote procedure call failed." ??? It's nice, but what I do about it? All my searches on google did not a solution. I could like windows 8, if I could every get this works for me instead of working me for her. The account that does not work is the first story that I created on the machine, so it was created as a default Administrator account. I created a new account admin can I now change the name of the 'standard' account on the old account and then delete it? (I know I have to move some files first). I had a local account for my wife, and when that happened, I simply deleted and made an account of microsoft for it and all its apps still work. Internet solutions has suggested that it might be something "group policy". I have no idea what that means, I'm not a person I.T.. I'm really sorry, I bought this HP machine with windows 8. It seems that I have spend more time trying to understand how to solve what I do to use it. I paid a lot of money for it and thought I was getting a machine of high quality with the latest and greatest software solution and would be able to stay in place through technology. Would be nice if it actually worked.

    Because I've had my laptop cleaned and reloaded I try not to use this machine much more simply because my account has problems of application. It's pretty sad. Microsoft please do the right thing and find this bug and send an update of windows to make it is transparent to the user, if you want us to continue to keep our faith in the Microsoft solution. Not everyone is a computer expert.

    Thanks for any help you can provide (I got this computer since December).
