Windows stop installing the games on computer, even those that have been previously installed without any problem

I would like to download hidden object games and have done for many months without incident, but in the last two months that nothing will install. Computer was checked and returned to factory default and now I get a message from Windows saying file is corrupted and it does not allow installation. I know that there is nothing wrong with these games because I have previously installed.

  • I just upgraded to El Capitan, which automatically "upgraded" iPhoto in Photos.  When I opened the Photos, my thumb nails is blurred with the exception of those that have been published in iPhoto.  This never happened in iPhoto.  How can I fix?

    I just upgraded to El Capitan, which automatically "upgraded" iPhoto in Photos.  Now when I open the pictures, my thumb nails is blurred with the exception of those that have been previously published in iPhotos.  When you click on a fuzzy thumbnail to select it, the picture is very good. The photos were initially imported into iPhoto via the camera memory card to JPEG.  Is there a way to fix this?  I take lots of photos for a local spca and this will really slow me down in the decision-making process on the pictures to use.  I'm not a very tech savvy person any help with this is greatly appreciated!

    If you pick a few and twist and turn then back it is this resolved? -If this is the case you can do in large groups for the problem photos

  • Error: ' Pictures.library - ms no longer works. " This library can be removed safely from your computer. Records that have been added will not suffer' while accessing the image library.

    Title: Picures library no longer works?

    Whenever I try to open my library of images, I get the error message "Pictures.library - ms no longer works." This library can be removed safely from your computer. Records that have been added will not suffer. "It allows me to take pictures with my webcam or anything like that.

    Hi Love_atomic,

    Thanks for choosing Windows 8.
     
    I understand that you receive error message when trying to access the image library. I'll be happy to help you with this problem.
     
    (1) did you do changes on the computer before this problem?
    (2) is the issue limited only with the specific folder?
     
    I suggest you to follow the steps and check if the problem persists.
    (a) open Windows Explorer .
    (b) with the right button on image library , and select Remove.
    (c) click Yes to confirm.
    (d) then right click on libraries in the navigation pane.
    (e) select restore default libraries.

    Note: Deleting of a library does not delete the contents of the included folders. However, you need to add or include your folders manually, if necessary.
     
    I hope it helps. If you have problems in the future, please let us know. We will be happy to help you.

  • I can't download free programs that have been previously installed

    After reinstalling MAC OS X El Capitan, I can't download free, programs that have been installed previously (Pages, Keynote, Garageband etc..)

    It is possible to solve this problem? Free download and install again?

    These applications come free with a new Mac. they are not included as part of the operating system.

    So if you had previously, they relied on the App Store with your AppleID.

    If yes then you can download them again from the shopping page in the Mac App Store.

    Or you have them on a backup that you made before the re-setup.

  • Cannot find the boxes with inlay of text that have been converted from Quark

    Hi all.  It's kind of a weird one.  I have a lot of documents that have been converted to different versions of Quark to Indesign CS5.5.  I need to find all the text boxes that have a 0.139 text inset, which seems to be the default for text boxes that have been converted from Quark that have text box.  I'll find/replace, choose the command object and set my search criteria for spacing to insert at 0.139, leaving all other criteria being. He comes back and says no matches found.  If I create a new document and test it, it works fine.  Is there something that I am missing?  What is a "bug" due to a converted Quark document? I tried to uncheck all the attributes object except inset spacing without result.

    Doing this by hand is VERY time consuming as you might imagine.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    The inDesign CS5.5, Version 7.5

    Mac OS x 10.6.8

    Bryan

    I think that your problem is with your conversion unit. 0,0139 inches do not match one point PostScript (it is equal to 1,0008 PostScript points). You should try the same method you were using, but rather try to enter "1 point" as your search query.

  • Why can't I run the games my computer is saying that I have to download directx 8.1 or higher and I downloaded 9 and my video card is also updated wat I do?

    Why slope games i run on my computer windows 7?

    What is the name of the game, and what are your system specs, specifically the
    The model number of graphics card.

    Direct X 8.1 is an older version of Direct X and is not a part of Direct X 9, 10 or 11. They are
    all separate versions and they all have several files in them.
    Win 7 has DX9, 10 and 11, but not DX7 or 8. Well, it may come with a single file DX 8, I'm not sure if
    a game installed or not, but I have a d3d8thk.dll file.

    What method did you use to update Direct X?

    There are the Web Installer. This will install a couple of new files of DX10 and 11 as well as a few
    Files of DX9, that a new installation of Windows 7 is missing. This does not overwrite files.

    Download details: DirectX end-user performance

    Setup Redistrubitable DX is the game full of DX - 9,10 & 11 (less the two or three most recent
    files made from 2010). This installer will overwrite old DX files.
    Note that when you use this installer, it will unzip the files, but must go to the location you
    Unzip them to locate and run the DXSetup.exe to install the files in the relevant Windows folders.

  • Impossible to reopen the emails that have been previously opened

    some of the emails that I had previously opened cannot be reopened.message rises (the message cannot be found) it does not reach all the emails.  It is not a problem of antivirus I already checked on that.  I can read an e-mail a day, go back and check on it in a week, and this message is displayed.  Help, please

    Your antivirus can be delete messages and that's why they are gone (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx and if you are using Windows Mail try to compact and repair the database - www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  Otherwise, you will just go to view | Current view | Show all messages.

    Unless you can be more specific on what email program you use, we cannot help much further.

  • Since the last update, Thunderbird the entire PC stops when the popup box appears after all messages have been downloaded.

    The last automatic update included a calendar function, which I turned off I thought it was at the origin of the problem. But now, after you have downloaded all the messages, I usually box pop up at the bottom right of the screen telling me that I received x messages but he only half fades and the PC all jams. CTR-ALT-DEL does not work and I can't switch to another window or even click on anything in the screen of Thunderbird. The only thing I can do is hard reboot the PC and turn off the router, which allows me to start Thunderbird without anything for download. I use Windows 7 and Avast as my AV. Any help would be appreciated gratefully.

    Hi Wayne

    Thank you for pushing me on this. The alerts began this morning. I had a weird 24 hours being taken in the Sky/O2 e-mail fiasco and there was another update to Thunderbird (and several Windows updates this week), so I don't know what makes it fixed!

    Thanks for your help

    I just installed Adobe Acrobat Reader DC on my Windows 7 computer and can't download a PDF from a government site. I was able to download the pdf of the year last of this site without any problems. How can I handle this?

    The PDF Viewer for Firefox supports not only this type of form PDF (XFA) or any PDF form really. You must download the file and open it in Acrobat or Adobe Reader, and it will work. You can download the PDF file right click on this link and selecting "save target as".

  • Vista has stopped turning the games run for a long time.

    Vista has stopped turning the games run for a long time. The display would go crazy and the sytem would lock. Gotta make a stop with the power button. No errors are recorded. I re-installed the game. Same thing. I reinstalled Vista 64. Same thing. I get about 3 minutes in the game and then locking the. 1 single game still work (BioShock2). COD - MW2 and COD MW lock the sytem. One is direct install, and the other is the steam. I have a video card Nvidia GTX 280 with the latest drivers from Microsoft. Before the reinstall, I tried to install the most recent NVIDIA. Did not help. Yet the locks without showing error. About half of the time it stops at my off video card a few seconds after that the display goes crazy. BioShock uses DirectX 10, and others use DirectX 11. I read on some sites that 11 causes the video crashes on some systems. I want to know is why 11 is working for so long and stop NOW. Is there a way to make the games all run on 10? COD BlackOPS crashes too. I played ALL these games over and over again until the last 3 weeks. If there was some error to post logs I would but there is not. Any suggestions on where to find some kind of problem that could cause this? The video card was removed, cleaned and put back into the computer. Still crashes. 1 in 4 of the games will take place without any problems. 3 will be blocking of the computer and the video trash in 3 minutes or less to start the game. The video is great, until blocking.

    Suggestions on how to fix or where to additional troubleshooting for the cause will be greatly appreciated.

    Try running the memory and the hard drive scan to make sure that both are good.

    If both check good, the map may be at fault. In which case it is overheating you can manually increase the fan speed in the Nvidia Control Panel.
