  Click on 'effects' (in my Version of XP in German), perhaps you will need to click on Advanced.

• Windows 7; Windows firewall prevents the discovery network, files and printers, sharing, public folder sharing and streaming media

  Windows Home Premium SP1, completely up to date.  Windows Firewall is enabled.

  Try to keep the file sharing and printers on a home network.  Try changing the settings on the control panel; All Control Panel items: Center network and sharing; Advanced sharing settings.

  When I try to change the option buttons for sharing, then click on save changes at the bottom of the page, the screen jumps to the network and sharing Center.  Object entering the settings advanced, no parameters have been recorded.   The comoputer restarting does not help.  I checked that the following services are running and set to automatic according to the http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/cant-turn-on-network-discovery-and-media-streaming/98654e71-4bff-4dd3-acec-ffc3524d44a4;

  When I stop the Windows Firewall service, I can activate the sharing I want.  Of course the windows firewall prevents sharing I would do on my network.

  I'm uncomfortable with Miss having a firewall work on my computer.  How to configure my Win 7 machine windows firewall to allow communications with my homegroup?  I tried to restore the default values.  This did not allow the communication.  I tried to find the homegroup settings in the advanced settings of the windows firewall.  No luck there.

  What should I do to configure my windows firewall to allow network discovery and file sharing of printers and media streaming and sharing?

  Hi stephanie,.

  Thanks for joining us out on Microsoft Community Forums.

  Looks like the Windows firewall prevents the discovery network, files and printers, sharing, public sharing of files and streaming media. We will analyze and identify the cause of the problem.

  You have a third-party antivirus installed on the computer program?

  Method 1:

  To turn on network discovery
  
  1. Open advanced sharing settings by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type network, click Network and sharing Center, and then, in the left pane, click on change settings for sharing advanced.
  2. click on the chevron to expand the current network profile.
  3. click turn on network discovery and then click on save changes. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide
  confirmation.

  The article below explains all about the network discovery:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/enable-or-disable-network-discovery

  If any of these responses not solve the issue, let us then run the sfc scan and check if any file system is corrupt. I also recommend to perform a clean boot in order to find the root cause of the problem.

  Method 2:

  Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

  a. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

  b. type the following command and press ENTER:
  sfc/scannow

  The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

  More information on SFC scan found in this document:

• CS6 with Windows 7. The menu item file-> file Info... not working anymore. Opens a window of the white aircraft, but never any information file appears. How can I fix this?

  One of the options from the menu in CS6 recently stopped working. This is the file-> file information...  I see no more image information. How can I fix this?

  Thank you

  Frnak

  See this thread: Info file gives me just a blank dialog box

  The fix goes like this:

  Create a new text file called XMP.cfg (make sure that the extension is cfg and not txt).

  The only text that should be in this file is as below:

  C:\

  Copy the file C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\FlashPlayerTrust (create the directory if not already there).

  Restart the Adobe application and review the file information panel.

  I used FF for awhile and earlier versions have been very well. Since the update, the pages are too big, I need to zoom out at least two stops to reach the previous size, onscreen, and it's a nuisance to do this for each page. How can I put it the previous size?

  Hello

  Try the following steps:

  1 "change screen resolution".

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution

  2 lf above does not solve this > go to the website of your computer manufacturer > look for a driver download section > find your computer model number > then find your operating system > then download and instalt graphics / video / Chipset Drivers (depending on how it is formulated)

  Then retry the screen resolution.

  3. try a system restore to before that happened:

• Oversized icons and web pages

  My icons and Web pages are huge and I can't seem to restore.  It's on the small icons and they are still huge.  If I change the zoom on the web pages that it goes down, but I can't move the screen.  I did a system restore and it still not back.  I don't know how it changed at first so I have no idea how to do to get it back.

  Check the resolution of your screen.

• On my laptop Win7 +-icons disappeared. Would be to enlarge or reduce web pages. How to make a comeback? I have the latest version of Firefox.

  As well my Win XP desktop and laptop Win7, I have + and - icons. That one click would shrink or enlarge web pages. The icon on the laptop (HP) has disappeared. I can't 'customize' or find a way to get back them. I know that I can use ctr + /, but it's bulky. I appreciated the service I had once. I did everything to try to understand this point, cannot and am appealing to you. Thank you.

  You can use an extension to set a page zoom and the size of the default font on the web pages.

  • Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
  • NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/

  You can find toolbar zoom buttons in the window customize.

  Make sure the toolbars like the toolbar 'Navigation' and the 'personal bar' are visible: "view > toolbars".

  • Open the window to customize the toolbars to display the value
    • View > toolbars > customize
    • Firefox > Options > toolbars
  • If the missing elements are in the toolbar palette then drag them from the window, customize the toolbar
  • If you do not see an item on a toolbar in the toolbar palette and then click the button "Restore default" to restore the default toolbar set up

  Hi Doug MacDonald.

  1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
  2. What web browser are you using to print Web pages?

  If you use Internet explorer, then change the margin settings to the title of the page setup in the file menu and check if that helps.
