Tool Bar Does Not Show Up
Aug 10, 2009
Issues With Vista Windows Mail And IE Explorer, About a week ago when I clicked on internet explorer (v.7) to get on the internet, it would time out and not even bring up the white page. After troubleshooting everything without results, I downloaded Firefox and began using that temporarily. I had tried to download IE v 8 with no luck.. Now when I try to send an email, windows mail will not allow me to put the cursor down where the message is to be written.
I also discovered that if I ran IE “Run as Administrator” it will work, but will not allow me to use the cursor to input text, like in a google search etc. I was going to go into options on internet explorer and reset to default settings, but the tool bar does not show up?? I tried to download IE v 7 and got a message that it was incompatible with my OS! Got the same message when I tried to download IE v8 again. I don’t know if all these issues are related or not.

I have a new PC running Vista Home Premium. I tried the snipping tool soonafter I received the computer three weeks ago. It appeared to work fine atthat time. I just tried to use it again but could not find the shortcut. Ithad been in the start menu under accessories but it was no longer there.
Using the Search facilities I found the program file "Snipping Tool.exe" onmy hard drive. I created a new shortcut but the program will not start,nothing happens. I also tried double clicking on the "Snipping Tool.exe"file.

Right now i'm running vista ultimate with a Q6600 and 4 gigs of ram. but i do graphics professionally and video a LOT so the memory is maxed out already. I'd like to prepare for the future with the 64 bit. i'm considering upgrading from a 32 bit to a 64 when Win7 is released later this year. with what i've researched already, i think my system should be able to handle it ok, but i was wondering if there were any kind of software tools that would check a system and advise what will NOT handle it. along the lines of the vista upgrade tool that was available.

i just got windows Vista Home Premium X64 a couple days ago and so far i have just a couple problems that i can't figure out. Well first of all i can't get the switching between windows thing to work correctly. My Girlfriend has Vista Home Premium also but she has 32 bit. But on hers the switching between windows is the live tabs of each window. And also when you hover the mouse over a minimized window on the taskbar its shows a live icon window of that window, but on mine it's just a tool tip. Another thing is i cannot change my colors of my taskbar and active windows. On my girlfriends PC when you go to the control panel and go to customize then colors it shows some different colors and it changes the taskbar as well as the windos but on mine its way different when you go to change the colors. And one last little question I have read about the Aero thing.. not sure exactly what it is.. i think its a theme right? well i don't have it under my themes list.

Vista Home Premium does not seem to have a snipping tool. how does one do a screen capture? At Circuit City a technician located the tool on the demonstration computer. I wonder whether this is a feature of versions beyond Home Premium.

I deleted the two web-slice icons (the ones with the drop-down at the side) that came as default on the IE 8 tool-bar as I thought they may take up too much space as I add bookmarks. Is there a simple way to restore them?

I want to show the properties of an icon, so I right click it and its properties show up, cool - however as soon as I click off of the Icon, to say, use the snip tool, the properties menu disappears. Thus I am unable to keep the properties menu open while attempting to capture it using the snip tool.

FIXED
Simply check that CTFMON.EXE boots at startup (for all users) Or go to start/run and type CTFMON.EXE then enter.
Use the following code (copy and paste to a .REG file) if you don't know how to add manually this executable to HKLM startup.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun]
"ctfmon"="CTFMON.EXE"

I plan on getting my first Windows Vista laptop in a few weeks. Since I am on the road often and don't leave my laptop idle for long, I need a defrag tool that works transparently in the background while I am using the machine. I am wondering what people think of the included deframentation tool in Windows Vista or if a 3rd party application like Diskeeper is necessary for my needs.

I thought this might help people who are having problems updating Vista. This article describes the System Update Readiness Tool for Windows Vista-based computers and for Windows Server 2008-based computers. Microsoft released the System Update Readiness Tool to resolve certain conditions that could cause installing updates and other software not to work. You do not have to manually run this tool. This tool is offered automatically through Windows Update to computers that have a condition that the tool could resolve.
After you download the System Update Readiness Tool, it runs a onetime scan for inconsistencies that might prevent future servicing operations. This scan typically takes less than 15 minutes to run. However, the tool might take significantly longer on some computers. The Windows Update progress bar is not updated during the scan, and progress seems to stop at 60% complete for some time. This behavior is expected. The scan is still running and you should not cancel the update.

I hope this isn't a repeat of an earlier thread. I did a search but couldn't find anything on it. If it's a duplicate, then move/edit as appropriate. Most of us are familiar with programs that install themselves in the MSconfig.exe file to run everytime Windows starts. Most of us go in and uncheck all that crap except for the essential stuff. That's great, but you often end up with an MSconfig looking like this
For those that want to clean up all that unchecked crap, one can either go into the registry and clean manually. But I found this little program which can do it too. It's simple. It's small. And it's free. Pic above says v1.2 but here is the link to the latest version v1.5 MSConfig Cleanup - optimize your Windows startup Great site you have here.

I'm preparing fir new install and, also, moving programs (this weekend, hopefully). I'm looking for some useful tool to dig/uncover as many as possible passwords attached to using by me web sites and, also, programs (some for them require special codes/passwords).

Is there any way to place Windows Mail on a tool bar when using IE7? I normally use IE and mail at the same time, and it would be nice if there were a link within IE (similar to the way I used to open Outlook Express in IE6 under XP -- it wasn't really on the tool bar, but it appeared as an icon at the top of the screen). FYI: I am using the Yahoo tool bar.

I have a computer that was working very well, but lately when I was working on a important project, there was a power fluctuation for a couple of times (I thought that was normal) but after the last power fluctuation my computer refused to boot up. There seems to be a failure of some kind?..but I need to get the projects back that are still in that disk.

A free Microsoft tool is available for download, designed to resolve failed installations of the second service pack for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008. Labeled the System Update Readiness Tool, the utility comes in handy in various scenarios when updates can no longer be integrated on top of Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2008 SP1.

Microsoft has a great tool that will change our IE7 User Agent to make it appear that you are visiting a website with IE6. This tool is designed to help users that need to visit a website that may be incompatible with the IE7 user agent.....

I was going to run SP1 Disk Clean up tool but I need clarification from this warning from BRINK:
"WARNING
Running the Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Disk Clean-up tool permanently removes the ability to uninstall the Vista SP1. Do not run this tool unless you have no plans of uninstalling the Vista SP1 and just want to save or regain hard drive space. The only option to remove the SP1 after using this tool is to do a clean install of Vista".
If for any reason I need to clean install Vista, would this be a problem? In other words, would I be able to... after having used SP1 Disk Clean up tool?

I've used the snipping tool. Once I'm on a web page and see a picture I want to save how do I go about pulling up the snipping tool? Also, do I need to already have the place I'm planning on storing the picture opened and in a drop down tab?
