Windows XP is not automatically shutdown.

Windows xp is not shutdown or hibernate automatically. It reached a point in the shutdown sequence where he stops, still displays the cursor, the power supply activted and then I have to do a manual exit ramp.

If not already installed this suggestion should be judged first where it takes a lot of time stop.

  • When I select recently bookmarked it works ok, but when I select unsorted bookmarks it opens a window not closing cycles for a long time.and I want to close the window manually and not automatically

    When I use the selection recently marked with a bookmark in bookmarks, it works very well and load the page quickly and opens another window. but when I go to unsorted bookmarks and double-click on the desired bookmark it loads very slowly and cycles for a long time. If I go to the firefox icon in the Launcher on natty 11.04 with unity it shows two open windows. I click on the unsorted Bookmarks window and manually stop and it works well and unordered finishes, loading the bookmark page I was trying to see. Why the unsorted Bookmarks window closes on its own? Is there a setting I can do close automatically. It really slows down the loading of the page, I tried to see. well thank you for any help or advice.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See basic troubleshooting: make a new profile:

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

    If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Shared folder, Windows 7 does not automatically update the files as they are deleted or modified.

    original title: data network of Windows 7 problem

    My problem is with all the means to modify data on my network with windows 7.

    The problem is the following:

    * 4 xp pc

    * 2 win7 (1 pro x 32 & 1 x 64 pro)

    * 1 pc xp with my files in a shared folder.

    all on the same network.

    all PCs can access the folder of sparkle. I have traced the folder on the xp pc 4 and 2 win7 pro pc without problems.

    Now, if I delete one of the files on the xp pc, or with one of the other networked xp pc, I can see the file disappeared on all xp pc and or if I make changes on my file as an excel file, I can see the changes on all xp pc.

    Now if I delete or make changes on my files with my pc xp, my pc win 7 does not show that I deleted files or changed anything.

    still, it shows the deleted files and can even open with all the deleted data still intact.

    I deleted the drive on the pc win 7 and consulted mapping data by accessing the location on the network and still have the same problem.

    It's like winning 7 pads files or something.

    Offline files is not enabled, or synchronized.

    I hope someone can help me.

    This problem has occurred to some of my PC too, after trying all the solutions non-utile so-called, ms professional here is how I solved it, click on the menu of the sar, right-click on Documents, remove all library locations, tried and it has not always worked, restored the locations by DEFAULT, it still didn't WORK , has ADDED ONE MORE, now, everything worked well, after this step i took just the location I had added (not by default) and it still works very well.

    This error has nothing to do with third-party software, but it has everything to do with the "libraries" functionality", the reason for this statement is because if I go to computer\c\users\myuser\my documents\
    everything works fine, but if I go to the start menu--> documents (which uses the library feature), then it has failed.
    Just so removing and adding a few ocntent library solved the problem.

  • Windows 7 will not automatically accept bluetooth file transfers

    Under vista, I could connect a blue tooth device to my laptop as a phone and send contacts on my computer without using the transfer Assistant. Windows 7 asks me to click on receive a file for each transfer. Does anyone know how to activate auto accepting file transfers in windows 7?

    Hi Gavin770,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    You must click on receive file that will allow your computer to receive files from another device.

    You may need to use some third party software to transfer files without clicking on receive a file each time.

    Hope this has been helpful.

  • Windows 7 will not be updated, 'check updates' stuck forever. Help me please

    Hi all

    I have a few computers where I installed a new windows 7 sp1. In these machines, I try to install the updates, but he said only updates for hours. It has been about 8 hours straight and still saying check the updates. I tried to do a few solutions that I found on the internet but did not work. Also, I had a chat with a tech from microsft and they gave me a few solutions, but did not work. Can someone help me with this problem?

    Thank you

    If Windows 7 have problems to find updates, causing heavy CPU or RAM with the Svchost.exe process, use the reason that Windows Update could not automatically update the Windows Update Client.

    in this case, you must download the update manually, it's the latest version at the moment: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3138612

    Note: if you have problems to install this update, stop the service "Windows Update" and quickly try to install the update.

  • Windows 7 does not refresh the folder views

    I have the following problem:
    Windows 7 does not automatically refresh the folder view (until I have updated manually by pressing F5) after the following file operations:
    Create/delete/rename/move files or folders

    Final version of Windows 7 Professional, international English version. No upgrade, clean installation.

    It seems to me that it is a delay in my case: if I wait about 30 seconds, the updating is done automatically. There are shared folders on volume.

    I made the following points:
    -removed IconCache - did not help
    -Reset - folder views did not help
    -off to the discovery network and file sharing - did not help
    -Made a clean boot - did not help
    -a ran sfc - not found any violation
    -new user created account - did not help
    -updated the BIOS with the latest version - did not help
    -updated the VGA driver to the latest version - did not help
    -disabled the indexing of files - did not help
    -run Windows 7 Mode safe mode (without network): it seems that the problem does not occur

    I could be satisfied with Windows 7, but this question is terribly boring cause I work with a large number of files per day.

    Could someone help me?

    I had the same problem recently.  Here's what I discovered, FWIW:

    • After reading all of the above, it seems that, at the base, this is related to the shell of the user of Windows interface and how he tries to 'reach out' to other systems.  Fixes disable the Windows Client, disabling home groups, disable sharing of files, etc.
    • I discovered that I have the problem that in some folders.  For example, if I try to create a folder in the my DOCUMENTS folder, the problem occurs, but if I create the folder in a random folder on drive C: (e.g.. C:\MyTest), no problem!
    • I discovered that the folder appears finally - it takes 30 seconds. By pressing F5, I was "rush" of the process.  It also sounds like a kind of thing network client timeout.

    I wanted to start with the easiest, lowest impact.  It worked:

    • I opened the COMPUTER and removed a "network connection" that pointed to a server that is not currently available.

    That solved the problem completely.
