  • Error message appears when you open the link to Web sites in Windows Mail email: "windows cannot find [URL], make sure you typed the name correctly.

    Until a week ago, I got no problem with opening links in e-mail messages in Windows Mail.  I suddenly had problems with the opening of all the links in e-mail messages - when I click on the link, an error message reads "Windows cannot find [url], make sure that you have typed the name correctly and try again"... a window then opens with a white screen.  But it is not a problem at the opening of the page if I paste the link to the window.

    I also noticed that the problem resolves after a few attempts to open multiple links.   But after the reboot, the problem arises again.

    I am currently using Windows Vista Home Premium with Windows Mail; did an update today with Service Pack 2, ran full scan of the system with Norton (no virus) and did uninstall the Yahoo and Google toolbars (recommended by David O - engineer Microsoft Support responses - to another user in this forum with similar issues).  And I still have the same issues.

    THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN RESOLVED - DUE TO INCOMPATIBILITY ISSUES BETWEEN SP2 AND NORTON.  UNINSTALL SERVICE PACK 2.

  • I have Windows 7, my computer does not start. I did the Startup Repair and he won't fix it. I did the system configuration information

    I have Windows 7, my computer does not start. I did the Startup Repair and he won't fix it. I did the system configuration information. and that did not help. What to do now? The comment of Bios makes me fear that it could damage my computer forever. What should do? Help, please

    Hi Alan,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that the computer does not restart even after running Startup Repair and I will be happy to answer your query. I appreciate the efforts made to try to make it work. Let me ask you;

    • How do you run the Startup Repair?
    • Do you have Windows 7 repair disc?
    • Remember to no particular change in the computer before the show?
    • Have you plugged an external equipment, except the keyboard and mouse?
    • You are able to start the computer in safe mode?
    • What is the brand and model of the computer?

    Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    There could be several reasons why he's not leaving including hardware as well. In addition, it could be because the master boot record (MBR) has been damaged. When you try to use the Startup Repair tool to repair the MBR, the Startup Repair tool indicates that no problem was found or it does not work yet.

    If you have any connected USB flash drive or other external devices connected to the computer, if you please, remove them and try to run the Startup Repair tool.

    If you haven't tried using Windows 7 repair disc, you can try the following:

    1. Insert the Windows 7 disc
    2. restart your computer
    3. When asked if you want to boot from your DVD player, do it.
    4. Select your language, click Next.
    5. click on repair your computer
    6. Select the operating system you want to repair.

    You can also perform the system restore by selecting the restore point when you think it worked very well. System Restore, choose advanced options using the disc.

    Important: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed after this date are deleted.

    I also recommend to contact the computer manufacturer to get the done diagnostic equipment.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

    Original title: Windows cannot find ' C:\... zip "make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.

    Hi StephanieCowley,

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.

    In addition, how are you doing today?

    You have a problem with opening the Zip files on the computer. This can be very frustrating for you, and I appreciate the efforts you have put in. Let us work together as a team and try to get this fixed number.

    We start with a few questions-

    (1) is this problem limited to opening files on Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome?

    (2) you are able to open other files zip on the computer?

    (3) you have a program to open ZIP files installed on the computer?

    (4) you are able to open the same file on another computer (running the same version of the operating system)?

    (5) you get an error code?

    (6) do you have made further changes on the computer before the show?

    I would like more information about the issue.

    It is possible the file association by default to open this type of file is either corrupted or needs to be changed.

    Method 1-

    I would like that you try to open other files zip on the computer. Check if it helps.

    Method 2-

    I would have you scan a System File Checker to verify violations of integrity.

    See the article-

    How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

  • After you download the update of Firefox 25.0.1 Firefox does not open. Help! Thank you!

    I downloaded the update for 25.0.1 and he ran. Instead of restarting, I stop the laptop (Vista Home SP2, 64-bit).
    When I started the laptop again, I tried to open Firefox, but Norton Internet Security leader Insight could not check the update as a reliable file and did not allow for Firefox open.
    I tried to disable file Insight but got the same results.
    I ran Live Update to update Norton Internet Security and then tried to open Firefox again.
    This time this Norton Internet Security displays a message saying that updater.exe wasn't careful and eliminated.
    When I try to open Firefox, Norton now detects Updater 25.0.0.5046, said he trusted, but Firefox does not open.
    I want to save the history if possible.
    How can I get Firefox to work with recorded history again?
    Thank you!

    Hi iamjayakumars - I was not able to create a new profile, because the Profile Manager does not open. A message from Norton seems "Updater.exe is sure.", but nothing else would happen.
    But - the links you sent were very helpful, and I was able to solve the problem by making a UN-installing and then re - install Firefox:
    1. backup of the profile.
    2. download the installer of Firefox from Mozilla.org with another browser.
    3. un-install Firefox from the control panel (ensuring "Delete my personal Firefox and customizations data" was NOT selected.)
    4 reinstall Firefox.
    Firefox starts successfully with all my old settings and all the tabs I had open the last time it was used appeared as I had hoped.
    Thanks a lot for your help!

  • LaserJet CP1025nw: My CP1025nw does not print envelope #10: gives an error "on paper" OS10.11.4 running

    I can not print envelope #10: gives an error "on paper" OS10.11.4 running

    Using a document separate from the Pages to the envelope size, tried several envelopes loading.

    Hi @RonD3,

    Thanks for joining the Forums of HP Support for a solution to your printing problem.

    I understand that you use a color printer HP LaserJet Pro CP1025nw with a Mac OS X 10.11.4 El Capitan computer and you can not print on envelopes #10 because you get an "Out of Paper" error message I would like to help with that.

    You want to make sure that you're using the envelopes recommended for laser printers only and that the envelopes are loaded correctly. The printer may not recognize the media which are not intended to be used with it. Here is a support document covering guidelines for loading and printing on envelopes - loading paper and envelopes for the HP LaserJet Pro CP1025nw color printer.

    Here is the document of support for seeing the message "Out of Paper" when there is paper or envelopes in tray - "on paper" Error Message is displayed and the printer is not Pick Up or paper source.

    Then I would like to reinstall the driver of HP with Apple Software Update. Here is a support document which can serve as a reference if necessary - install a printer Mac driver by using Apple Software Update.

    Please let me know if that solves the problem, or if you need assistance.

Excel 2007 does that very well.  Instead of excel opens, Manager of photo is trying to open up.  I tried to change the default program assignments, but the only options are Office 2010, Microsoft Works Spreadsheet and Microsoft Open XML converter.  No does the job and as I mentoned, if I take of Office 2010, it tries to open Picture Manager who can not read the file.  There is no good Excel option to the association of .xls, it shows Excel as the deafult.
