Windows Can Not Find Keys
Apr 13, 2008
I am running windows Vista 32 bit, and everything was working great until I uninstalled Norton 360. Following uninstall, my DVD drive no longer worked (I corrected that issue) and my network no longer works. I am wired into a router, and also wireless on the same computer. Bother worked well, until the uninstall. Now, I can't even see the router, even though I'm wired to it. The wireless connection successfully connects to the router (or so it seems), but also cannot see the router.I suspect there is a registry error (or key corruption), but cannot find which keys are corrupt.Has anyone ever had this problem? Again, I corrected the DVD issue, but cannot identify the network issue.

I am wondering if there is a way to remap the Windows shortcut keys. A specific example is the [Win][E] opens Windows Explorer but I would like that key to open a different file manager. I have tried different key tweaking programs and the ones I have tried do not allow changing a combination of keys such as the Win key together with another key. I would like something that would also work in Windows XP.

Tried backing up windows mail settings and restoring after a clean install. three methods, all the same results.
1 saving registry keys.
2. Windows backup.
3. Widows easy transfer.
Everything is fine but the signatures. They look grayed out and when I click on them Windows mail crashes immediately.

There are discussions on this general subject but no aparent resolution. About two months ago I was sometimes prevented from opening photo attachments on some emails received from the same party and sometimes could open them. By this I mean, I would click on the paperclip where a list of photos would appear and I'd click on on photo and I'd get a message saying: "Windows cannot find file name (photo captions used by sender).jpg. Make sure your typed the name correctly and then try again." Well, of course I didn't type the file name; the sender did. I could click on the save attachments, and once saved to a folder I could open them from the folder. I forwarded the mail to others, and they report no problems in viewing the photos. I can also view the photos in the email itself, but it would be necessary to scan up and down and from left to right to view the whold photo and the caption would not appear.

I recently had to reinstall vista (too many problems to mention!) but now it has switched my @ " | keys when the shift key is pressed. I only want to return them to what they were before and have tried installing the english keyboard but that hasn't helped.

I have the vista premium 64bit (only 2 days old) and the keyboard keys
have gone mental.
They replace shortcuts and after a reboot the non-working/"bad" keys change so its a different set of letters.
Sometimes F will open find computer while other times it wont,and sometimes L will lock the pc while other times it wont.
Ive unistalled,reinstalled,updated the drivers.Restored the system to two days ago.
Check all language settings.

As I am working on the computer (Sony VAIO Laptop)(Windows Vista Home Edition), I hit the arrow key several times. Doesn't really matter which one, the result is the same. Just for argument sake, lets say I hit the left arrow key several times. The computer will act as if the key is stuck, and will scroll to the left. Using the up and down arrow keys, I can go up or down with out a problem. When I hit the right arrow button, I don't go to the right. The only way I can "unstick" the left arrow button is to hit again.
This issue happens with all the arrow keys, so I figure that perhaps it is a preference somewhere in Vista. I thought it might be the stickys, but I checked and they are off.

I have moved and have lost my cd key for both Vista 32 and 64 bit. I still have the media just not the CD-Key. I was apart of the beta and was send both copies with the cdkeys. Is there a lookup tool or an email address that I can use to try and recover my two cd-keys?

is there a way to make a script on your G15 keys for the different options on your Nano Suit? Hopefully there is or you guys can point me to the right direction. Right now, I am using the "ALT" key to open up the Suit Menu and from there, I pick my mouse to the different choices you have (Strenght, Armor, Cloak, Speed or Weapon) but, in a heated battle, I would love to use some of the other key my G15 has for a quick use of any of these choices w/o wasting valuable time. I could do with the Sci-Fi Alien part of the game or the need to hit the KPA a few times before they die, but for the most part, the game is fun and it makes for a good laugh when you try to kill a KPA from a distance with the suppressor.

Vista has a very serious problem with object focus - makes it very difficult/ nay totally impossible to operate with a keyboard so i suspect it's lost a lot of customers for this reason alone. Live Mail also seems to have a focus issues & i'm not sure which is to blame. when you attempt to move (up/down) folders in the folder pane using keyboard - if there is news/mail download, the folder loses focus to the mail/message window - if not it takes two presses to activate the folder. again this peculiar behavior makes it impossible to navigate with keys

In the process of trying to get current (I am within 2000 messages) with the messages in this group, I have seen many requests for help with problems about attachments. I am interested in helping diagnose the problem if I can.
I don't need help with a workaround; I don't mind saving attachments, which works for me. I am a developer with Visual Studio 2008 and such and I will attempt to diagnose the problem if possible.
I had assumed I don't have the problem but I am getting the following when I try to view a jpeg attachment:
"Windows cannot find 'Photo0192.jpg'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."
Is that the same problem most people are getting when they have a problem
with attachments?
The only thing I am aware of that might have caused a problem is that I installed IE 8 when it was still very buggy, and then I uninstalled it.
Later at some point Windows Update re-installed IE 8 (I assume that happened when IE 8 was released). I assume that since most people encountering the problem are non-technical, they would not have installed a beta version of IE 8.
Could the problem be a security problem? If so, could it might help to audit security failures? I am not sure of the details of doing that, but I am interested in trying things such as that if it helps diagnose the problem for Microsoft to know what to fix.

I have yet another problem with my lame vista laptop and this time, it's the net yet again! I can't seem to find any wireless networks nor can I find mine. I've tried to do some of the things people suggested with previous posts like mine but, I it doesn't seem to work. Wireless Network Connection is disabled, I try to enable it and it doesn't work p.s. I can access the internet when I connect the DSL modem directly to my laptop.

I've just got a new PC with the dreaded Vista installed so I thought I'd use Windows Mail rather than an older version of Outlook I've been using on my previous PC. I send out email to a number of lists and I use Bcc to hide all of the addresses. Trouble is, I can't find Bcc in Windows Mail. Is it there and if so where is it?

In XP I had fax console. Where is it in Vista. I have been all through the program files and don't see it. Does this self install with the installation of Vista, or must I add it from the installation DVD. There also seems to be something called windows fax and scan, but I can't find that either.

here's the problem: If I double-click on an Excel file, I get the following message: "Windows cannot find /path/. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." Excel opens up fine, but without the workbook. If, within Excel, I open the file up using OfficeOrb -> Open, it opens just fine.

I have a Dell Inspiron E1505 and I run Windows Vista Home Basic on it. Last night after downloading and install NOD32 I started getting Bluescreen crashes everytime I used the internet. This happened about 8 times before I finally put it in safe mode and ran SystemRestore. I reverted back to one day prior and it resovled the bluescreen crashes; however, now I cannot open the control panel without Windows explorer failing to respond and anything I seem to save instantly disappears off of my desktop and cannot be found on the harddrive with an advanced search. Finally, there is some remnant of some program I installed last night still present called "Sprt Client Interface" running in the process area in the lower right. When I try to open it, it says windows cannot find bconte.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and try again." I cannot all the specs but I have an Intel T2250 with 1G of RAM.

I have a dial-up networking connection already set up on my Windows Vista Home Basic machine, which is equipped with Service Pack 1. Yet, when I log on as one particular user, and then click Start > Connect To, my dial-up networking connection does not appear, and the "Connect to a network" window says "Windows can't find any networks" when I am not connected, or "Windows cannot find any additional networks" when I am connected.
At the same time, I find on my desktop a folder named "_hiddenPbk", which, when I open it, contains a file called "rasphone.pbk". I have just found out that this folder, as well as the file associated with it, belongs in the folder called "%APPDATA%MicrosoftNetworkConnectionsPbk". I copied the "_hiddenPbk" folder from my desktop to this folder and restarted my machine, but the effort turns out to be for naught: My dial-up connection still does not appear in the "Connect to a network" window. This quandary is user-wide only, meaning that this predicament only happens when I log on to my Windows Vista machine as user "X" but not as user "Y" or "Z" or any other user.

I'm Rean and I'm experiencing some problems about the color scheme in my computer. I'm using Vista Home Premium for 2 years now. When I log in to my account user, the computer refreshed and then the whole settings about the appearance changed. I tried to fix it in windows appearance and when I looked in the choices, I can't find Windows Aero and Windows Home Basic. I don't know why but it just disappeared when I logged in. I tried to restart my computer but nothing happens. It still doesn't appear.
