Windows Store promp 8.1 Windows Installer, but nothing happens
My computer with Windows 8 keeps prompting me to install Windows 8.1. I go to the store as he tells me, and I click to download it. He acts as if she done something and tells me that I can continue to work on my computer. But nothing happens and before you know it my computer is once again inviting me to reinstall Windows 8.1. Can anyone help me please with this problem?
Hello
There have been similar problems happening when you use a cell phone type of internet connection.
Maybe even fixed line...
One of the workarounds I've read is to start downloading from another connection, pause the download bit after it starts and then continue with the original connection, if desired.
He has also had similar problems with 3rd party security programs. If you have one, turn it off...
In some cases the program must actually be deleted with a removal tool, not just uninstalled...

Hello
I can't access my photos, videos, documents, etc. because I can't in my files anyway I have try. If I click on the icon in my taskbar Windows Explorer, it highlights as if it will open, but this just highlight fades and nothing happens as if I has not yet clicked (no error notice or anything).
When this happened enough times, I tried entering my Start menu and search bar "search programs and files". He showed me the results of research (such as the names of files in the start menu), so I know everything is still, but nothing happens when I click on them.
However, I can still download files online when a site gives me the ability to click a button in the Web site to do.
All this happens on and outside, and I don't know what are the is or what causes that actually get better at random.
Also: Something that occurs when Windows Explorer is working is that any attempt to open My Documents is blocking my computer. I can no longer access my documents unless I can search in the start menu (which, even once, does not always). I resorted to store my documents online because of this.
If anyone can help me to solve these problems, I would be very happy! I need my cell phone all the time while I'm in College, and while I'm at home.

I created a playlist in Windows media. I have connected my Sansa MP3 device via USB connection cable and sound the sync button to copy the playlist but nothing happens. I checked my Sansa and it has not automatically copied to the other. How can I go there when the sync button does not work?
Hello Jane136,
Ø you get an error when you try to run synchronize your device with the media player?
Ø have you tried to format your Portable device and then try to synchronize?
Ø you have the latest version of the software or the driver installed on your computer to the MP3 player?
Try to copy the files of music from Windows Explorer. Most MP3 players will appear as a "disk" on your computer, and you can browse the files on them by simply opening.
I suggest that you format your Portable device, and then try to sync with Media Player. To format the laptop drive:
1. right click on the Portable media player.
2. Select the option.
3. choose quick format and click ok.
Thank you

Windows 7 Ultimate told to updates, but nothing happens
I have fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit and I tried to do the first update, but when I click search for updates, it is said of the updates, but nothing happens, green line retains circiling arround for hours and nothig. Can someone help me?
Thanks much for the reply, but I managed to fix it myself. I put windows automatic update options, left my PC for a few hours, and when I had to stop, said updates are ready to install, and after restarting it installed updates. After that I changed the update options to never check the update and check the updates manually and it works perfectly now. Obviously, after having install Windows and you want to first update should be set to automatic and stay on the line for a few hours, after the first update, you can change the options to update at your convenience, in my case manually check for updates.
