  • Why Lightroom auto-start on the computer in the market even if it is not in my Start menu (Windows7)?  Irritating!

    I just installed Lightroom5.

    Two gripes.

    First of all, it starts automatically on the system running even if it is not in the start menu.

    In the second place. It eats CPU and memory. I export 1 photo and its use went from 2.4 GB to 3.6 GB of memory. CPU 100%

    Any advice?

    First question-

    Check in your LR preferences - general tab > Import Options > "see the import dialog when a memory card is detected."

    If it is checked, then its possible that any device plugged in USB will start LR. Remove the control to try first.

    I'm not qualified to comment on the CPU usage.

  • Windows 7 Excel and Word 2010 jump lists appear only not on the Start Menu

    Hello

    I would like to apologize if this is in the wrong section... I got here by looking at another thread, which ultimately does not solve my problem. I read the same solutions on dozens of different threads and not one has done something to help, so I thought I'd try to ask once again, indicating that I have tried and see if anyone has any other ideas!
    ... I also like to apologize if "jump list" is the wrong term. I mean, it is when I click on my Start Menu, and "Microsoft Word/Excel 2010" icon is the small arrow on the side right does not allow me to click everywhere for what files I recently consulted on Word. I have exactly the same problem in Excel 2010, but No problem at all for Powerpoint 2010 and it seems that programs such as Notepad and so forth are very well as well.
    What I did:
    1. right click on 'Taskbar', click 'Properties', select the "Start Menu" tab, under "Privacy", I checked the boxes ("Store and display recently opened programs in the start menu" and "Store and display recently opened items in the start menu and the taskbar").
    Make a right-click on 'Taskbar'-> properties-> select Menu-> customize-> items recent fact make it appear a list but less it is tab and not attached to the application (which is what I want to xD).
    My original problem was that the list of recent items for Word has not been updated and it was stuck on what he was about 3 months - which eventually prove needless after I lived my computer and deleted, renamed and moved a bunch of word documents! Unchecking the boxes got rid of the arrow completely, and when I checked hide them he refused to reappear for Word and Excel.
    2. I was at '% AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations' all files deleted from here and restarted my computer - ' 1b4dd67f29cb1962.automaticDestinations - ms' seem to be for the word, and I think that ' 3d961d1bb3da929c.automaticDestinations - ms' are to Excel. I have them I deleted, I moved it out of the folder, I renamed them, I sang for them, etc. etc. and every time it did not work.
    This seems to be a really popular solution that works for most of the time everybody... it does not work for me!
    I've also been to '% ' AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\CustomDestinations and deleted everything from there.
    3. I checked that related to open different file extensions in Excel and Word programs are associated with Excel and Word. Everything seems to be strong in that Department.
    I use Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and fight with versions of Word and Excel 2010!
    Then... I don't think anyone has any other ideas?
    Thank you in advance!

    I emptied two recent used folders but did not work.   Then I fixed my office installation to add/remove programs in the control panel and that did the trick.  I have office 2007 and 2010 installed, but make sure that I only use 2010.  Will probably uninstall 2007.

  • HP ENVY 17 Leap Motion SE: Dual boot Windows 10 with 8.1 - Start menu screen does not always watch.

    I bought the full version of Windows 10 House because I want to keep my factory installed Win 8.1 x 64 and dual boot with the new OS.

    Installation went without problems - on a partition separated after the reduction of the C: partition by default, but when I restart my PC, start menu does not always appear for make me decide which system to choose and the computer boots directly to Windows 8.1.  I even turned off "time to display list of operating systems" when Windows 10 is selected by default OS, but when I turn off my PC for a short period and put back on, I am greeted by Windows 8.1

    Could be a bios or partition related question? Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

    Hello

    Thank you for posting this and for letting me know it now works for you (which is acceptable to you).

    In fact, what you describe above is not a bug, but it should. This is because Microsoft has changed a bit the boot process and the stop function since Win 8 (which means Windows 8, 8.1 and now 10). Instead of the stop full as in Windows XP, Vista, 7, Windows 8, 8.1, and 10 (when he is chosen to turn off) will stop, but closing them is a kind of hibarnation. For this reason, what describe you above is going on (he begins the latest OS because it was really completely out).  Full done restart restarts and it meets the place where the OS is selected.

    More information-> http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/windows-and-office/how-windows-8-hybrid-shutdown-fast-boot-feature-works/

    This mode ensures a faster start-up (on cause of so-called half restart).

    A workaround for this (works on Win 8, 8.1 and should also work on Win 10):

    Hello

    -What is the number of brand and model of the computer?

    Flip your keyboard and shake gently. This will remove any buildup of debris which may prevent the keys work properly. You can also use compressed air to remove dust from hard to reach under the keys areas.

    Method 1: Check with another keyboard.

    Try a different keyboard on your computer. If it works well when you connect a different keyboard, the issue may be with the keyboard.

    Method 2: on the keyboard of the screen
    Check if the problem occurs while using the on-screen keyboard. It will help us to check if there is any problem with the keyboard.

  • Cannot restore my laptop-"Repair my computer" not appearing is not in the start menu

    Once or twice in the past had to get my phone and it was an easy process thanks to the construction recovery option (computer repair) in the start menu (when you press F8 on the Toshiba screen), but now when I press F8 during the Toshiba screen and go to the boot options, there is no option to fix my computer. Fix my computer is usually the first option, but the first option is now "Start Windows in safe mode". Fix my computer disappeared! :(

    I think that the cause of my problem is that I started my laptop using my friend's windows startup disk when my computer would not start a month back. In fact, he got my laptop going again, but after starting my laptop, he told me that there is a problem with the start and he asked if I would like to repair and restart, I did. In addition, the windows startup disk, I used to start my laptop computer is a 64-bit version and my laptop has a 32-bit operating system. I don't know if that makes a difference.

    Could someone please help me by letting me know if there is anything I can do to get "Repair my computer" back. It is handy recover my computer when I want to just go back and get my laptop clocked in so it is better again.

    Short answer:
    There is nothing you can do about it except to include adjustments to plant again. I'm sorry. :(

    Hello

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. you receive an error message?

    3 when was the last time it was working fine?

    Method 1

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you perform a clean boot and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

    Reset the computer to start as usual

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

    (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

    Method 2

    If the above step failsthenI suggests Mr scanner SFC on the computer that would scan for corrupt system files on the computer and replace them.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

  • Windows 8 hang on the start menu.

    Hi, normally the way I use my laptop computer running windows 8 is when I wake up before you do anything, I would like on my computer. Only after I finished with the detergent and breakfast start using it. However, for the past 2 days, I am trying to use, the screen would be just stuck in the start menu. I couldn't click on icons could go to the bar (where all options are) on the right and I couldn't even Ctrl Alt Del. I have to restart the computer first before being able to use the computer. If there is a way to solve this problem, let me know, thank you very much.

    Matthew

    The info is in the wiki.  You run WPR and it will record all the data when it restarts your computer.  You will then take the file (it will be BIG) and upload it to onedrive or any other file sharing service.

  • Why windows 8 do not have the start menu

    It is easier to access in windows 7

    Windows 8 is designed for touch screens and desktop computers. It's also supposed to be more effective.
