Windows 7 won't remember the keys to wireless network

I have two wireless networks in my house, which are both secured with WPA - Personal TKIP encryption. For some reason, whenever I reboot and login, I have to get my network key. I've lived with this for about six months, but now its so annoying.

I have Windows 7 Home Premium x 64


I would be very grateful if someone could solve this problem because it is extremely annoying and would allow me to save a lot of time.


I've been hitting my head against a wall with this issue for a while, but I finally found the solution.

If you are having problems with Windows 7 not save your network security key or return to an old key, the solution is the following:

launch msconfig (start > run (or simply type in the field "search programs and files" above the windows orb) > msconfig)

This opens the System Configuration dialog box

Click on the Startup tab

Scroll down to find the startup of your wifi adapter program (in my case it was NETGEAR)

Uncheck the box next to this startup item

Restart your computer. problem solved.

  • Windows 7 won't remember the last used file path

    So to this question, take the Gmail.  If you enter an email and want to attach a file, you click on join and Win 7 by default on the desktop, from which you access the folder you need.  It's very good... for the first time.  However, while she is supposed to be smart enough to be REMEMBER this location next time.  NOPE.  Win 7 keeps by default on the desktop, even if you attach a file and then IMMEDIATELY try to attach to another.

    Is there a solution for this?

    * original title - Windows 7 won't remember the last used file path.  Very frustrating *.

    It is not a particular problem with Windows 7, but the Internet browser.   We remember is no longer default path of Internet Explorer with the introduction of sandboxing Protected Mode.  Even Windows XP, using the results of this sandbox layout in this behavior.

    Your temporary solution is to use another browser, such as Google Chrome.  In the meantime, your comments that you want to have the ability to remember the last folder used in the browser is important in the future development of the browser.  Leave your comments here, please: https://connect.microsoft.com/site/sitehome.aspx?SiteID=136
  • Windows 7 doesn't remember the folder views.

    original title: Windows 7 doesn't remember the folder views. Microsoft is pathetic.

    Once more, I find it quite pathetic that Microsoft Windows 7 as Vista, such as Windows XP and all other operating systems M$ has developed can not EVEN remember the layout for the records.

    What is THE POINT of having more customization options in solution for users to set, Explorer if your code Explorer STUPID don't even BOTHER to remember. Users bother to customize their desktops and file only to discover that their work is broken as soon as the PC restarts or in Windows 7 Decides to forget or to crush stuff in the registry.

    It is also pathetic that M$ has removed most of the "individual" customization of Windows XP folder now opt for a "point of view fits all approach!". (Ie the deletion of the folder option "View tab / remember this layout of records"). I can't decide if a file opening should have the "Navigation bar" to the left. Now, if a folder has the navigation bar, hey look, ALL MY FILES open with the navigation bar now! Yay! NOT.

    Even with this, HE has YET to forget every customization that you made to your files!

    Things going on in my head when I'm on Windows 7:

    Mmmm. I'd like my account to have this icon or bitmap image please. There we go, very nice. Reset. Mmmm. Why is he returned to show all the file type icons in this new folder. Oh God, worst yet! NOW ALL MY FILES ARE RETURNED TO THE DETAILS VIEW. B * llocks, I've spent hours a lot, a lot, a lot (over time) establishing this batch! Gee thanks to shake me more M$. You've obviously spent a lot of money and many hours asking your BETA users which would p * ss them off the most when you use Windows Explorer. Voice of tester beta geek: "uh Yes, I think I was very p * ssed if all of a sudden he returned for more details on all my folders in Explorer. Microsoft: "OK, we're going to take care to include that then...". "Everything what is p * ss you off." Geek: "Yes, while your at it, if the navigation bar appears on EVERY issue and doesn't even have a shortcut key, so I had to reach for my mouse and go to a menu rather than quickly display and hiding cases of need, which would probably be p * ss me off really bad." Microsoft: ' hey this is a great idea!

    Folder view settings should be remembered INDIVIDUALLY for the love of God, on a folder by folder basis.

    I think that the removal of this option, and becomes the fact that Microsoft have removed code rather that actually fixing the code first place is a sign of how pathetic software from Microsoft.

    I hope Apple start to develop their PC rather than just Apple Mac operating system sometime in the future.

    It will ultimately be the nail in the coffin for Micro$ and personally, I'll be happy to see the back of them.

    I'm a PC and I am upset that Microsoft Windows Explorer doesn't bother to remember how I presented my files.

    If you want to know what I'm talking about m $ look the Apple Mac operating system and copy what they do (you know, the usual).
    At least they seem to know what I'm talking about.

    If you think I'm the only one who is upset at this by the way: http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&source=hp&q=windows+7+remember+folder+settings&btnG=Google+Search&meta=&aq=0&oq=Windows+7+remember+folder&fp=a60718907b4ba39b

    21.5 million users would disagree with you.

    DESIRED EFFECT

    To have a folder and its subfolders all use the same view model AND having the view model to reflect the disposal of one of the folders.

    WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

    First, you must realize that Win7 treats these two very different applications:

    1. make subfolders use the same model from view as the parent folder.

    2 configure how a view model is laid out.

    My confusion is I thought that changing the layout of the folder parent by clicking on 'Apply to subfolders' it applies to the layout of the parent folder, but all it's means "all look to the model of display as well as the parent folder.

    Understand that when you say "optimize this folder for: * music *" IT IS NOT AUTOMATICALLY CHANGE THE LAYOUT of the folder! Only it it's a music folder (or general or images or other) and ALL TIME NOW ON the time the * music model is changed (via right click on any * music folder > organize menu > folder and search options > view tab > apply to records) THEN the layout PAGE ONLY will be updated.

    So unfortunately, Xaero_Payne solution by itself will result in the 'problem' that everyone here seems to have. You do BOTH steps to make it work. (I know it's easy to chatting about M$, but instead of pi$ $ in the wind at home, we can as well get into their heads and understand how to use what we have).

    STEP BY STEP

    You can do these two processes in any order, but I want to do such as this, because I can then more easily see changes. For the example below, I'll do their music files and I'll apply the Details view template.

    R process: make subfolders using same view model

    Right-click on the Parent folder that contains all of the subfolders > properties > Customize tab > check also apply... subfolders > select * music * (for this example) > apply then OK

    Process 1: Customize and apply the provision of fashion model music

    Find or create a folder you want to use the view model.

    Select them * details * view (or list, large icons, etc.) and then customize the layout as you wish. Add new desired columns and rearrange them as you like.

    Organize the menu > folder options and research > display tab > apply to records. THIS MAY BE THE MOST IMPORTANT OF THIS PROCESS because otherwise he doesn't know you want ALL the * music * files to be like this.

  • They showed me a way to do a massive bowl of spam, but I don't remember the keys and the sequence to do.

    I recently had installed Thunderbird and more 10,000 e-mails were transferred. They showed me a way that if I press Ctrl and another sequence of keys, I could scroll through many emails and send them to 'trash' collectively, instead of having to delete each message individually.

  • disconnecting from the ad hoc wireless network

    I have problems with the ad-hoc wireless network connection. Internet connection is not necessary, I want to just connect two laptops vista to play Civilization4. We had two laptops connected properly for a few days and enjoyed the game. But now the connection does not appear to work properly.

    Two portable computers connect to each other and then after a short perion one of them disconnects with a message saying "in waiting for other users to connect."

    It's the same no matter what either portable sets up the connection.

    We tried to establish new connections of two laptops and welcomed the connections between each of them also, the problem is the same.

    We have tried to disable the firewall without success

    There are other parameters that we should look at?

If you have several USB devices, the USB network adapter can share, bandwidth, power or both to a level that it causes, you experience the symptoms described in the Symptoms"" section. To resolve this issue, try the following suggestions:

    • If the computer has more than one USB bus, connect the wireless network adapter to its own USB bus. Connect other USB devices to a different USB port. As a general rule, two USB ports share one USB bus.
    • Disconnect all USB devices that are unused or not.
    • Use a powered USB hub to connect the adapter to your computer.

    Hello, can help me? I got window xp home edition w/support package 3 of my computer and the network of teachers. I use it to format the hard drive to make it like a new computer, but it says that the product key that was on the sticker was incorrect, even if she was the one that came with the computer when we bought it. I tried to contact Microsoft, but they have this computer thing and it's boring and then I tried again and it gave me a busy signal. We know what can I do to get my window is enabled?

    The product key on the sticker must match the type and flavor of Windows XP that is installed.  An installation disc can be a XP CD retail or an OEM (manufacturer) CD and the flavor can be XP Pro or XP Home Edition.  These two must match between the CD key and product.  In addition, some manufacturers have XP 'BIOS-locked' such that the OEM install disk looking for a code that exists in the BIOS to validate.

    My guess is that you install XP from a retail CD on your OEM computer and codes are not matching.  If you do not have your original installation media, you will probably need get a your computer manufacturer OEM drive and reinstall Windows.
