  Error message is windows have closed unexpectedly.  There is no solution not available except for windows update, but MS windows Update center and the computer indicated that it is up-to-date.

  3. I sent my computer before my warranty missed Toshiba to solve a problem and the webcam did not work since until recently, when I tried to use it.  I have not noticed that the parameters of the webcam showed no upward on the computer screen as he went to the store.  He is now out of warranty.  Support software if we click on it just says to check the settings of the camera live webcam.  I downloaded the update driver for the camera, but still the same message.  I deleted the software and the live camera assistance software and reinstalled the driver updated, but still the same message.

  Hello

  If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

  There is nothing to worry.

  Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

  If you are using one of the above AntiVirus programs, this Information from David O - Support Engineer shows you how to manually enable Windows Defender (disregard information from uninstalling; not possible in Vista):

  "Go to start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Look for Windows Defender.

  Right click and select Properties , ensure that Startup Type is automatic.

  Once modified, click apply and OK.

  Quit and restart your computer. Check the back take the same path to confirm that Windows Defender has started"

  If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:

• Windows Media won't play a DVD

  How com windows media won't play a dvd, even with a decoder, I added this morning?

  I'm having the same problem. My computer has Windows XP Professional Office. Media Player 11 is on it. But when I try to play a DVD, it says "Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer" is not Media Player got it own decoder? I don't want to download some other decoder from another provider that I don't know. I got Windows Media Player on every computer I've ever owned and have never had problem reading DVD or something else. What is the problem and how to fix it? My computer has a DVD driver... and yet I can't watch DVDs... makes no sense...

  And yes the DVD play on other computers and DVD player to the TV. Not a scratch above. Nothing wrong with the DVD. ANY DVD will not play the computer, with the fact that I have a problem...

  And Yes, I am talking about Windows Media Player.

  =================================================

  A DVD decoder is not included with Windows XP...
  so, we need to be acquired and installed from a third
  the party source. If your system has one when it was new...
  It would have been included in your OEM software
  package... maybe you always for her installation disk.

  The site has a few suggestions:

  Info about DVD decoders: Plug-ins for Windows Media Player
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Windows-Media-Player-plug-ins

  
  FWIW... the free VLC Media Player can play DVDs
  and you shouldn't have any additional codecs.

  (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
  Restore point before installing software or updates)

  VLC Media Player (32-bit Version)
  http://www.filehippo.com/download_vlc_32/
  (works on XP, Vista, 7, 8)
  (the name of the file to download is: vlc - 2.0.4 - win32.exe)

• HP 2311 x monitor won't sleep

  I have my system my computer Setup will put my monitor to sleep after 10 minutes if the computer is idle.  The problem is that my monitor will not fall asleep.  It shows the system status menu, scan for input device, said so he'll sleep, power light goes Orange and a few seconds later he wakes. Then start the whole process again and again.  If I put the system to sleep monitor goes to sleep (didn't at first when I got until I updated the driver of HP).  I connected it to the DVI plug.

  It seems that I found my own solution and I'm posting so it can help others.  Although my computer is about 3 1/5 years it has a DVI and VGA connections for the monitor.  The HP2311x monitor has DVI, VGA and HDMI connections.  I got the screen hooked up using the DVI connection.

  I changed and hooked it up to the VGA connection.  Set the computer up so the monitor going to sleep in a minute and waited.  Monitor went to sleep and not wake up until I moved the mouse.  Tested several times more and no problem.  So apparently there's something with connections DVI monitor won't sleep when you use this connection.

• Windows 7 won't let me access the files (my documents, my downloads), but the programs work very well!

  Currently, I am running windows 7 Ultimate on my desktop I built. My computer starts up fine, no problem when I connect and I can run all my programs like itunes, security suite norton, chrome, Picasa and Microsoft word work completely fine. There is no problem to save things on Word view my photos on Picasa (which is on the C drive) or by playing songs on itunes (which means that I can access my hard drive through programs), but when I try to open the downloads folder, it shows a popup that says: "this operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator. "and does not open the file. The problem is that I AM the administrator account on the computer! However, when I open things in my libraries such as My Documents or my music, there just a blank page, saying that I have no files in this folder, but I have files in all of these files: photos, all my music itunes and documents.

  The interesting thing is that I can save documents to the word to My Documents and it will be displayed at the beginning, but when I close the My Documents window and reopen it, the file disappeared and the folder is 'empty' again.

  Currently. I have 2 hard drives connected, a seagate 1 TB and a supplement of 250 GB. Both of these drives appear in disk management, so that the computer knows and is able to see are how many gb on them. Apart from this recognition, when I open the start menu and press computer, it only shows my USB and my CD player, nor of my hard drives. I know that computers are connected correctly as they hum and dry as usual. I am very worried about what is, be it a virus, bad connection, settings that have been changed for any reason any.

  Please help me understand why Windows 7 won't let me access my files through programs, but not in Finder Windows, I have very important files on this computer that I can't lose!

  Windows 7 has a feature of self defense which is a pain.

  He doesn't like files from other computers,

  Right-click on the folder and select properties and see if there is a release button.

  Repeat for external drives.

• 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

• External hard drive always autoplays when Windows comes out of sleep

  I put a new computer together and hava an annoying problem.  I have a Seagate external hard drive plugged into the usb port 3.  Every time Windows comes out of sleep, AutoPlay starts for the reader.  I used before this drive on my old build with this issue, although it was plugged into a usb port 2.

  I am currently using Windows 7 Professional x 64.

  It's just an annoyance, not a disaster!

  Thank you.

  Whenever the computer goes to sleep, the USB ports and all internal devices such as Bluetooth are turned off. When the computer comes out of standby mode, these devices are switched on. Once it is done with the USB ports, the connected device is also recognized as a new device and then autoplay starts. It is therefore normal.

  If you don't want autoplay, will start-> type autoplay--> press on enter. Remove the tick of Use AutoPlay for all media and devices. Click Save.

• I restored the computer to an earlier date and now the password windows 7 won't save us.

  I restored my computer to girls at an earlier date, and now the password windows 7 won't save us. She never changed the password before and now we cannot connect. How to do it please help.

  I restored my computer to girls at an earlier date, and now the password windows 7 won't save us. She never changed the password before and now we cannot connect. How to do it please help.

  This means that a different password was in effect at this point, even if your daughter thinks otherwise. There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:

  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
  • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
  • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
  • Use the password indicator (only works if an indicator was created and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
  • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

  The most important point would be: run a machine without a spare admin account is about as risky to have a house key. Sooner or later, he is at risk for any number of reasons.

• After going into sleep mode after automatic update of Windows 7, Pavilion p6210y PC won't sleep

  In two weeks, after an update of HP launched automatically, my monitor is not recognized - I tried to restart my PC via the power button, but the action brought everything back without interruption to the place.  Finally I made the necessary update HP closed down and all was back to normal.  Last night I made a full stop and a Windows 7 launched updates (do not turn off your computer, etc..).  This morning when I powered back upward, I got messages on the windows during Setup, etc, then everything returned normally.  I worked for a few hours and left the machine - it entered into mode 'sleep' and now I can't get out of fashion "Eve".  If I power cycle the monitor, I can messages same "cannot detect.  If I try to shut down the PC via the power button, the light is orange/sleep, I hear a humming, then seeing if off, then back to orange/snoring, reverse, etc..  Keeps the bike like this.  I'm afraid that question a couple of weeks may have been a sign of early warning of a problem of h/w, but am not sure.  Can anyone help?  I am not very savvy h/w... and hope that it is something more simple than that.  The PC is 2.5 years.
