How can I "freeze" my desktop items in the places where I want them?
Before we had to clean up a virus from my Dell Inspiron 1720 laptop, my desktop "items" were all arranged the way I needed them to be for me to refer to quickly.Afterwards, right now, they do not stay in the positions I place them in - top left top right in categories, etc. They are ALL on the left side, top to bottom completely mixed up! It's so hard to find what I need in order to continue my work, after turning on my laptop, again A Dell Inspiron 1720 and I have Windows Vista.Can you please help me?CynthieC View this thread

Using run line - "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect"
Hi all, I got a laptop yesterday with Windows 7 64 bit. I wanted to change the default installation directory from C (my SSD with limited storage) to a larger drive (F). I ran regedit and followed steps HERE. That didn't seem to work. I recently tried running regedit again and got the error message "C:Windowsregedit.exe The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect." If I try to run rstrui.exe, the same error message appears. It seems like I can't use any run line commands without this error message. I'm also no longer able to run .exe files from C:UsersmyNameDownloads . I was unable to find any other topics which could help and was hoping someone here could provide some assistance. Thanks so much View the thread

Opening "chkupd"
As soon as Windows displays my desktop (and before all the icons are in place), I get a window asking me to choose which program to open "chkupd." Note: it is not called "chkupd.exe," but just "chkupd." I ran a search looking for any files with "chkupd" in the name and Search found none in my entire computer (I had set my settings to allow searching hidden files and folders.). What does this mean? Which program should open this file? View this thread

Does Microsoft call because of IP messages?
I had two calls frorm someone that indicated they were from Microsoft, they wanted to access my computer due to a problem. They indicated their Microsoft Helpdesk was in California but the tl: number was from NY ((917) 512 2926. They indicated my IP address was sending errors to Microsoft and my computer would crash soon if I didn't get help. They ask to look at my computer: Click, Start,, right click Computer, click Manager, click Event viewer, Custom Views, Adminstrative Events: then I see 505 events Errors & Warnings. Are these crash problems and does Microsoft make these calls? Thank you View the thread

To JW Stuart
Will Windows 7 continue run with Windows 8?? If so, for how long? Like the other poster, I like this OS a lot and until Windows 8 ticks all my boxes, I am loath to switch. If I could get an answer to that question, then I could make my mind up one way or the other. Many thanks in advance Charles Stewart UK View the thread

What does the library default save location actually do?
From Help it looks like it saves the library location to a location within the library which in turn is saved in the library and so on and so on. For instance, the "Documents" library contains (among others) "My Documents" which I've chosen as the default save location, therefore, the library, "Documents" is saved in "My Documents". Just silly. After reading some of the questions on this subject, it looks like it does something else. So what does this default save location actually do? Please be detailed as it makes no sense to me yet. P.S. Okay to have a good laugh at my expense on this one. Or.... (I did some more research) ... does this allow me to specify where a program stores it saves? If so, would the following be correct: My Flight Simulator saves are stored on my incredibly fast but smallish C drive. I want them on my massive D drive. So I set up a folder on my D drives called FS saves, put it the same library that Flight Simulator is in and choose FS saves as my default save location. View the thread

Probleme mit Geräte (Mein Computer) unter > Systemsteuerung > Hardwäre und Sound > Geräte und Drucke
Auf der Seite > Systemsteuerung > Hardwäre und Sound > Geräte und Drucker werden Drucker, Faxgeräte und Geräte angzeigt. Unter Geräte wird mein Sony-Notebook mit einer gelben Warntafel angzeigt mit Status "Problembehandlung erforderlich". Nach dem Starten und Durchführen der Problembehandlung besteht der Fehler weiterhin mit der gelben Warntafel (auch nach einem Neustart). Bei Durchsuchen weiterer Probembehandlungen erhalte ich 2 Infos: 1) Deskjet Drucker verfügt über keinen Treiber (er funktioniert auch ohne Treiber einwandfrei und 2) Hardwareänderungen wurden möglicherweise nicht erkannt. Wie kan ich den Fehler beheben, so dass die gelbe Warntafel mit dem Hinweis "Problembehandlung erforderlich" aufgehoben wird ? Ich bitte um möglichst detaillierte und einfache Beschreibung, da ich kein IT-Experte sondern nur Anwender bin. Ich arbeite mit dem Betriebssystem Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. View the thread

FTP job failing, Remote desktop disconnect, XP Pro
Windows XP professional SP3, VB6 Application using WinInet FTP, Window 7 remoting to XP pro. I have been having problems with one of my VB jobs. It has been running fine for years and now it is failing because it is downloading only partial files FTP. It appears to have begun failing after May 22, 2012. One symptom that I can duplicate is that when the FTP job is trying to run it knocks me off my remote desktop connection. Sometimes the FTP download works, sometimes the files are truncated.

several windows updates get installed but reappear as ready to install.
I have tried the fix it tool that tells me windows update components need to be prepared and it tells me that it fixed it each time I have used it. This does not fix the problem. I also chose the repair option for the .net V4 client but this did not fix the issue either. I am running vista home premium 32 bit os. Thank you in advance for any assistance. 4 View this thread
