• Firefox 5 does not work with the AVG and Google toolbar, among other problems

  I downloaded Firefox 5, invited by Filehippo. Among other things, my anti-virus sw were not compatible, the Google toolbar disappeared and could not be put back because I was using an old browser! I did a system restore with the result that Firefox did not work at all. I went back to version 4, only because a guardian program requires firefox, otherwise I'd returned to Windows Explorer. It cost me a lot of valuable time.
  I tried to make this complaint under the feedback, and the button send didn't work.

  Google must update the program toolbar for Firefox 5.0.

  The 7.1.20110512W version Google toolbar works in Firefox 5.0 using the add-on Compatibility Reporter, I tried it myself because of the large number of comments on the problems of the GTB.

• Windows Explorer does not and sound problems

  I'm running Vista (home edition) on a laptop and I'm having problems with my windows Explorer. The other day it was working fine and I have updated to service pack 2, after he installed my computer went crazy! My exporer windows keeps "not responding" and whenever he "closed the program" my office went nuts it shows not all of the icons (on my desktop) until I raised the Task Manager and the taskbar kept resetting itself to I don't know what. I would go in the taskbar properties and sometimes he let me check the power, network and sound icons and sometimes it would be grey so I could not. I uninstalled the update and it seems to work very well a bit, windows Explorer still fails sometimes well. What is really bugging me, is that a previous update messed with my sound, so sometimes I have to go into the Device Manager and disable then enable the sound to get it back (the driver is up-to-date). But sometimes the Explorer is not responding so I feel like I'm going in circles! The other problem is that after installing service pack 2 is my computer guard with "unexpected cases" and it still occurs even after uninstalling service pack 2. Does anyone have any ideas what the hell is happening? I ran all my software, adware, spyware viruses and everything else so I know that my computer is clean. It is service pack 2 or is it my computer? Also, I have an idea of what I'm doing, so I'm not a complete fool. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I don't have my 5 cups of coffee yet this morning.

  After having had a nasty during the Christmas holiday, my work windows XP computer virus never seemed the same.  I ran Malwarebytes, Registry Mechanic, and PC Tools antivirus to clean the computer.  However, now my computer will not display control panel, Windows Explorer or the desktop icons.  The Task Manager does not work.

  Exactly what virus was this?

  Almost certainly you don't has completely failed to clean the
  computer upward. Keep in mind the following three things:

  1. MalwareBytes anti-malware is an anti-spyware program and
  nothing to clean up viruses.

  2 PC Tools antivirus is a bad choice of an anti-virus program. For
  an antivirus program, I recommend eSet NOD32, if you're ready
  to pay for it. If you want a free anti-virus, I recommend one (are not
  run several) of the following three:
   
  Avira AntiVir
  Avast
  Microsoft Security Essentials

  3. in the course of the run Registry Mechanic has been a very bad thing to do and it can be
  responsible for the problems that you are experiencing now. Cleaning the registry
  the programs are all snake oil. The registry cleaning is not necessary
  and is dangerous. Let alone register and do not use any registry
  cleaner. Despite what many people think and what providers of registry
  cleaning software try to convince you to have unused registry
  entries is not really make you hurt.
  The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner by mistake
  delete an entry you need is much greater than any potential benefit
  It can have.

  and also
  http://blogs.technet.com/markrussinovich/Archive/2005/10/02/registry-junk-a-Windows-fact-of-life.aspx

  Let me stress that neither me nor anyone else who warns the
  use of registry cleaners never said that they always cause
  problems. If they have always caused problems, they would disappear from
  the market almost immediately. Many people have used a registry
  cleaner and never had a problem with it.

  The problem with a registry cleaner is that it carries with it
  the risk of a significant problem. And since there is no
  benefits of using a registry cleaner, running that risk is a very bad
  good deal.

• Removal of a superfluous notification in Windows Explorer area

  The notification area large enough in Windows Explorer which is at the bottom, between the status bar and in the list of files, provides redundant data.

  There is an option in the View Menu to turn off the display of the status bar, but there is no reference to this notification area.

  Can you delete this notification area to free up more screen space to the list of files and folder?

  Thank you for your help.

  With Windows Explorer open, click Organization, layout , and uncheck the details pane.

• Start long time and window explore is not responsible for problem

  I've upgraded to windows vista 7(32bit) but failed to see the magic in windows 7. I use a laptop HP 60 G with 1 GB of RAM and 160 GB HD startup is slow, applications frequently hang, Windows Explorer not responding not time in Vista when I open several or even an application. now, when a program crashes, I usually type my pad like 5 to 6 times a Windows Explorer view does not display if poster, then choose from the options that appear, but this look was surprisingly out of pure frustration led to something but I don't like the gel. When I check my RAM used in the process window is 70 to 88% in standby mode when I run programs sometimes use of approaches 99%. The CPU usage is less than 10%, surprisingly, the shot is more severe when the RAM is at 45%. What is happening with my laptop or windows 7?

  Hello

  for the slow start follow my guide here to follow up on startup:
  http://www.MSFN.org/Board/index.php?showtopic=140247

  and compress the boot_BASE + CSWITCH + DRIVERS + POWER_1.etl 7z and RAR and transfer it to your Skydrive and post the link here. I take a look at the trace, maybe I see what's wrong with your Windows.

  You should also try a clean install, not an upgrade of Vista.

• memory error laserjet pro m1212 - among other problems

  I'll just put up a LaserJet Pro M1212nf.

  I'm angry against HP before even getting the thing completely uncompressed.

  WHY HP is too cheap to provide a USB cable?

  OK, have to run out to the store.

  But, in addition, I power up the printer and I am getting a memory error. It says "memory error 10.1000 supply."

  HP made a final inspection, or am I their unpaid final Inspector?

  There is a paper tray, presumable to capture the output of the printer. The only problem - he obviously does not anywhere, ridiculous installation manual says nothing about this, and after downloading the user manual, which says nothing no more.

  Nowhere in the manuals gives error codes.

  Just to add insult to injury, there is no registration card. HP guarantees this thing? With these many problems, why t - you buy HP?

  Someone at HP read this, or am I just whistling in the wind? Yes, I'm upset. I've never bought a printer before who has not just plug the supplied cables and WORK.  {Content deleted: legal discussion}

  Hi pilotgeorge,

  I can understand your frustration with this issue. After reviewing photos it seems that you have the correct output tray for this printer. Below, I have included a link to a video that will guide you through the installation of the paper output tray.

  Hi Don,

  Thanks for the reply.

  To resolve the problem with the preview pane, you can try these methods.

  Method 1:

  I suggest you scan the computer to verify that there is no infection by the virus, using the Microsoft Safety Scanner.

  Microsoft safety scanner will help us to get rid of software viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Note:

  1) the Microsoft Safety Scanner expires 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  2) if you run the virus scan of the program which is infected with the virus will be deleted. Therefore, reinstall the program. Also, if files and folders are affected by the virus, while they might even get deleted.

  Method 2:
  If the problem persists, I would say allowing you to run the auditor of file system (CFS) analyze and check if it helps.

• Do a right mouse click on the name of the file causes Windows Explorer stop.

  Do a right mouse click on the name of the file causes Windows Explorer stop.

  The problem is sometimes caused by a third-party extension. ShellExView can be useful to see what shell extensions have been introduced in the Explorer. Lire read on this topic, then scroll down to download the x 86 (32-bit) or x 64 (64 - bit) version here near http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.html

  When you run it, click the column of company for sequence entries in alphabetical order. Suppose Microsoft entries are in good faith and focus on others. Is something listed that is useless or unknown? If so, select it and click the Red (on top left) task to turn it off. You can find it easier to disable them all and then reactivate (green area) one at a time and try to explore until the culprit is found.

• Windows Explorer stops working

  Windows explore stop (explore.exe question) it seems only when I try to open a file with associated with Real Player videos.  When I left solutions, none are found. I have Vista Ultimate and don't remember having this problem with Vista Premium.  I tried many things such as an external hard drive, to reduce the load of memory and a player flash set up as a ReadyBoost.  Found a lot of answers about Windows Explorer, but most East of problems with several accidents or other problems.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Click Tools and then click Folder Options
  On the general tab, click using the Windows classic folders, and click OK.

  This will cause the explorer.exe avoid making the thumbnail preview on video files that might not be compatible with Vista.

• "Windows Explorer has stopped working" - help!

  Running Vista HP, sp 2.

  Firewall on the router & McAfee.

  WE automatic updates of windows

  In the last two days, I get "Windows Explorer has stopped working" pretty constantly.  Not the kind of endless loop, just whenever I try to use it, it will give the errmsg, close, claim that it restarts and fail to do so.

  I've had a scout quick tour here for solutions and tried all that is obvious:

  (1) run the System File Checker (Nothing found)

  (2) run chkdsk (Nothing found)

  (3) installed and run a-squared (found nothing)

  (4) off the display of thumbnails (past again)

  (5) started in SafeMode (past again)

  FWIW, a few other applications have the same problem, for example Adobe Acrobat will crash all trying to save a file, to the point where it's the folder view.  And Acrobat and Windows Explorer are broken only if you try to display all drives on the computer.  If you start to US at a lower level, in 'my documents' therefore very well with what he shows you.  If you then scroll down to 'computer' and click to enlarge, this is the point where it crashes.

  However, other applications (such as Word) can access and save items to this level, for example I can save a word doc on my phone as another drive of the word itself, although if I tried to slide anywhere in US it would be crushed before I could even see the phone was there.

  My hunch is that it started with what seems to be a Windows Update absolutely unrelated to C++ security two days ago.  But it could be a complete diversion.

  Any ideas?  I'm reaching the end of my tether here.

• Windows Explorer stops, then restarts in windows vista sp1 once I open documents

  Once I open the documents on my pc I get the message that windows Explorer has stopped working, then the new windows Explorer restarts and the same problem again and again.

  Hello

  ·        You did changes to the computer before the show?

  ·        Is it limited to any particular document or is it in general?

  Method 1

  Step 1: I suggest that you start in safe mode and check if the problem persists:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  Step 2: If the problem does not persist then put the computer to boot and check what third-party application is causing the problem:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: after a repair, be sure to configure the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

  Method 2: run the SFC scan to check if system files are intact:

• Windows Explorer has stopped working error

  Yesterday, I tried to install a program on my computer that is running windows vista after that the computer has stopped working.  It starts go to the home screen and then the screen turns black with a white cursor you can move.  I can start the Task Manager and the cmd mode.  I can boot into safe mode only until I get the message windows explore has stopped working a problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

  I tried to boot to the last known good configuration, but that did not work.  I think that the program has put the memory on the Board, but I'm still not a person of intermediate knowledge on this topic.  We didn't backup our files and of course need them.  Thank you

  Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

   

  Restore point:

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

  Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

  Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   

  If the system or Mode restore safe work not and you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.
