Windows 8-three problems that can actually be a problem.

Currently on Windows 8.  With the help of a laptop - Inspirion 5520 bought in November 2012.  Previously worked very well, but problems in Windows 8.1 updates brought me to update my PC and get back to the original settings that was Windows 8.  With that was challenges, some of them have been fixed.  What remains is;  (1) is unable to access internet from the start page (no Bing, window start apps).  (2) can't access the store - so impossible to pass to 8.1.  (3) changes in the Internet Options settings do not stay.  Cannot turn off the connection clicked - Internet Options, connections, LAN Settings - proxy on apply, then Ok, but the changes do not remain.  I tried to reset the store with wsreset.exe in the command field but no change.  I ran the App store, but no changet as it did not find any problem.  I even tried to force the update of Windows with ms-windows-store: windowsupdate, but no change.  The error I get when trying to open the store from the East;  "We were not able to connect to the store.  This could have happened due to a server problem or network connection has expired.  Please wait a few minutes and try again. "Help, please!

Ramesh.Kudar. before I read your email.  I have somehow stumbled upon a fix for all of my questions - a mystery to me.   I could always make changes in other areas of the management of Add-ons, but I could not activate my three search engines.   I decided to try to make these changes in Mode safe and noticed that there was only a single listed search engine and I was able to remove it.  At the bottom of the management of Add-ons is the link "more about search engines.  When I click on this option it took me to www.iegallery.com.  I then clicked on modules and added Yahoo, Google, Bing and was finally able to connect to internet in Mode without failure.  While still in Safe Mode, I tried KB2871389 & KB2917499 because these are the two files that my computer said that I needed to go to 8.1.  I was able to download the files but couldn't install them because I was in Mode without failure.  Previously, in Normal and safe mode I could make any changes to Internet Options.  I was now finally able to make changes in my LAN settings and check the box 'automatically detect connection settings' and uncheck 'The Proxy Server... ».  This time, when I hit apply and Ok the changes remained.  I restarted my computer and when he returned to the top updates have been installed.  Given that I could now use the internet, and the necessary files have been installed, I was able to access the Store and download 8.1.   Thanks again for your help.   Given that I spent the last months of struggling to solve a problem after another after receiving bad updates, your information on change just TCP/IP settings could be useful.

  • Windows Store App for Windows 8 says now that he can not be installed

    Hello

    I just do a restore to factory on my computer Windows 8 and now I'm reinstalling all the applications that I used for the Windows store. I liked and had no problem with The Weather Channel, but when I went to install from the Windows store, it now says my PC can not meet the minimum requirements, or may be updated. I do not understand that because it has worked well for the 2 years that I got it on this computer before restoring factory three weeks back.

    Hi Daffy,

    The problem you are experiencing has occurred due to a corruption in the App Store Windows.

    A few quick questions to better understand the issue:

    1. What is the brand and model of your computer?
    2. The issue is limited to a specific application (The Weather Channel)?
    3. You are able to download other applications?

    Try the following methods:

    Method 1

    Check Windows updates if driver updates are available. If so, the same install and check if it helps.

    • Press Windows key + W on the keyboard.
    • Type the updates in the search bar and click the Windows Update icon from the result of the search.
    • In the Windows Update window, click on the link: check the updates from the left side of the window to receive a new list of updates.

    If updates are available, install all updates listed there. Make sure that you install all updates including the optional updates.

    Method 2

    Allow us to reset the Windows Store cache and check if you can download the application.

    • Press the Windows key + Q.
    • In the search box, type WSReset.exe , and then press ENTER.

    This will reset your hiding place for the store. Now, try the download and check.

    Method 3

    Run the utility troubleshooting app which is a tool that can automatically identify and fix problems with applications and store.

  • Three sliders that appear in the tool of selection of Photoshop 11 on Windows 10.

    I have a new computer with Windows 10. In Photoshop 11, there are three sliders that appear in the selection tool. There is nothing online about this. Any ideas?


    Thank you.

    I found the solution. It's the same problem as previous versions of Windows, when the display settings are at 150%.

    The Windows 10 solution is to go to advanced display settings and change the custom scale factor. There is an area to the top of this window, where you can manually type in 149%, 151%. It is necessary to log out or restart before you see the correction in Photoshop.

  • I love Personas, but I can't figure out how to display the part of the image that can be displayed at the bottom of the window; How can I activate this part?

    Beautiful image shows the upper part of the window, where the toolbars. But the part that can be displayed at the bottom of the screen (above the taskbar (I think it's called?)) does not appear and I can't remember/find a way to work in so that it is displayed too.

    "Personas" are basically dead. The name was changed to 'Lightweight thèmes' and the Mozilla seems to have lost all interest in this feature. IMO, it is corporate ADHD - build, promote, many users ignore the hook on the feature, of it do not continue to "show the love" and in two or three years 'kick on the sidewalk.

    Basically, the add-on bar went in Fx29 - so there is no image at the bottom. There is an extension that restore the bar of the add-on, and it seems that it supports Personas - based on the screenshots on the page to download add-on.

  • mail of the window; that can receive messages, but cannot send

    Hi, I had to reboot my computer.  Run the vista program.  Had this problem before, but this time I'm stuck; updated windows all day but who still have problems.  That can receive messages, but cannot send and the internet works (it is a comcast account, talk to a comcast technician, he went through all the settings with me and said: this is a problem in microsoft).  Running an internet LAN setting but when you try to send an email dial-up pop box.  Tried to go in the e-mail properties to change the tab connection, but the program freezes.  Summer research on the microsoft Web site all day for a download fix. but they simply don't have the download button more.  Don't want to download "Windows Live".  Help please!

    I got it going!   I deleted the e-mail account, and then re-installed and this time I wrote everything down.  I don't know why I had to remove it to make it work because everything I entered re - in has been the same as before.  Go figures.  Oh, just a note; This computer has no recovery disk.  Everything is facotry installed on this HP Pavilion Entertainment PC (Vista) THANKS for all the HELP WORLD!  It was greatly appreciated.

    2. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?

    I suggest to perform the clean boot and then try to install Firefox. When you perform the clean boot make sure you disable all antivirus and firewall programs.

  • Windows XP Professional said that he has failed the Windows Genuine Advantage test. But I called the Windows Activation and the officer confirmed that my product key is genuine. How can I make Windows genuine?

    I recently bought a copy of Windows XP Professional. I installed and activated Windows XP while I had an Internet connection. This went well. I then download Microsoft Security Essentials, who then informed me that my copy of Windows is maybe not authentic. Confused, I downloaded the WGA tool, who confirmed that my Windows XP was not authentic.

    The Microsoft product activation call and reading my product to a CSR key, he confirmed that the key was official and I have to contact Technical Support. But Tech Support costs a bit of money, and I'm only 15 years to be honest (Yes, I have a bit of technical knowledge).
    My question is this: is it possible that I can make genuine Windows? This problem is getting boring now. I tried to reinstall Windows XP and re - enter the product key (I tried an online activation and a phone).
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I suggest you to see link below and check if it helps.
