Desktop Alert Type Software
May 11, 2012
Does any know of any free Desktop Alert type of programs. All i basically want to be able to do is send a popup message to all users/workstations currently logged on. I realise that it should be possible with NET SEND / MSG commands but they obviously need the service turned on but i dont want to do that, plus i hear doing to all workstations doesnt work so well. When we use to use the intY Exoserver for a gateway this provided a popup box message broadcast as part of the client software but we do not use this anymore but miss that ability.I have search the web and sourceforge but not sure im searching for the right terms to find a free one.

I have been having an issue with the desktop alert not working in windows 7. I have come across 1 or 2 other people with similar issues, but no solutions. I have created separate folders for my mail to be routed to based on the account. Therefore, I do not get the desktop alert for the inbox, so I added that as an option to each rule. I have also added an audio file to be played. The issue is that the desktop alert window fails to show up after outlook has been on for a while.
The sound alert will play fine always. Within the email settings, the desktop alert preview button also fails to display anything. Sometimes I am able to get it to work once or twice by restarting outlook, but to do that I have to use the task manager to exit the program because just shutting down leaves OUTLOOK.EXE running. Once I first start it back up, it will close down correctly and immediately, and it will display the alerts.
I have not been able to narrow it down to what causes it to stop displaying alerts, (i.e. is it a time frame that the program has been open, a certain account, etc...). It will just stop displaying them, at which point the preview button doesn't work anymore, and the closing of outlook doesn't operate correctly. I have installed all updates to outlook based on the windows update site.
I will mention that I never had this issue in XP. Also, outlook used to always leave outlook.exe running when closed in XP, but that one of microsoft's recent updates fixed that. For some reason this just appears to happen in 7. I never had vista, so I have no info on that OS.

When I type in Word 2010, frequently my keyboard will refuse to type. It will type a couple letters and then I have to wait to get it to go on. Then it will type a few more, etc. Another time it will type without an issue.I have changed the battery.

I found a few pix in my files that I want to edit with Photoshop. I can't open them in PS because they are Type 1 or Type 2. When I try to open them, PS says they are .jpg.1 or. jpg.2. How do I get rid of the .1 and .2 so they become normal JPG photo files?I can look at them with Windows Photo Viewer but I can't figure out how to convert them to normal JPG files.

Any website I try to go to, an alert pops up saying that it contains viruses and it recommends that I download "Win 7 Home Security" or something like it. Alerts also pop up telling me of spyware and other things my computer are being attacked by, and it again prompts me to purchase "Win 7 Home Security" I'm pretty sure this Win 7 thing is a virus. My friend told me he had it before and that he had to wipe his PC clean. Maybe I need to do that, but I don't know how. Do I need to wipe my PC completely clean? How would I go about doing that?

I am recieving a ridiculous amount of alert messages, and I have no idea what they are! There is no bubble in the bottom right corner, or anything popping up. I have no idea why these alert messages are occuring so frequently, but I would love for them to STOP.

I have been successfully using the Shortcuts button from the customized dropdown. However, I am having one problem with a specific app, WinRAR. I have the app's shortcut successfully loaded into the button's dropdown. When executed I get an error message that says proper pathway can't be found...Doesn't exist! And yet, as you can see below, Windows Explorer shows that WinRAR does exits in C:Program Files (x86)FF Shortcuts

I'm currently doing an internship in an office, and we all use windows 7 enterprise.The management didn't give us the possibility to install any software, because we don't know the administrator password and we don't have installing privileges.We need some way to alert each other whenever a shared network file or folder has been changed, with a pop up message or a text log or an email...there's plenty of third party freeware software that does this, but we can't install anything Is there some way to do it with the built-in windows tools?

As of today, I am constantly getting a popup from the Internet Protection Firewall Alert saying I have serious threats and I keep saying "ignore". They say do you want to protect and get rid of the viruses and then they want me to buy something and I say no. But the popup still happen about every 2 minutes and it says JEMonster is found. I did run Super anitspyware yesterday, but that is all I've done. It did remove stuff from the registry. I can't even use the computer.

My wife has a two month old Lenovo ideapad with Windows 7. We are now getting alerts that the D partition is near full. Is this system taking multipul backups of the harddrive C and storing them all? What are my best options to have a safe backup, but not overloading the D partition? I do see in; Computer>System>Device Manager>Disk Drives>D Drive General tab that there are two options at the bottom.
option one, (not checked in my case) "Compress this drive to save disk space". Option two, (checked) "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties" If this system is saving a snapshot of D over and over, it will only be a matter of time when option one will be overcome. SO, I would think that there has to be a setting that will let partition D delete older backups...right?
Would it be a combination of selecting option one and changing a setting that would enable older backups to be automaticaly removed?

I have created 2 permanent network mappings to local drives for my phone, but I always get that "Could not reconnect all network drives" alert at logon. It's certain the phone is only occasionally connected so that the network resources are not always accessible. Is there a way how to tell Windows to remember those mappings so that I can open the associated driver whenever I connect my phone, but when not connected those drives will still exist but be inaccessible, same way as empty CD-ROM drive behaves.

seen a few similar posts floating around but nothing that is exactly my issue or gives a suitable answer.m running Win 7 64bit on a desktop, I have a Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse, and Wacom tablet.So I could not type in my windows password this morning, either using the Logitech keyboard or the on-screen one with the mouse. After about an hour of trying and several restarts (and my primary and secondary monitors switching for some reason), I could put the password in Once in Windows I found there was a keyboard issue: I was only typing the occasional special character (an accented i was one:) . Trying to type a test email I had the i-cursor available in the header (title-box) but not the body, even the special characters could not be typed in the main body. For some reason I picked up my pen tool, moving this over the email body produced a �control/Alt yellow box prompt next to the pen cursor pressed these keys, now all is fine

My problems continue with Win 7's faulty 'file associations' subroutine. Have a friend with a new Toshiba Core i5 on which he has MS Office 2003 Professional fully installed, including PowerPoint. Three weeks ago, he complained that he could not open .pps files attached to e-mails, so he brought the computer to me. I opened the file associations subroutine, found .pps in the list of extensions, and ultimately (tha'ts another whole story) got MS PowerPoint registered as the default program to open such files.Today he claimed he got another e-mail with a .pps attachment, and could not open it, so brought the computer to me again. I don't know why he wasn't able to open it, because I called up the e-mail, clicked the .pps attachment and it opened perfectly. However, I opened the /Default Programs/Set Associations list and scrolled down to see what the .pps entry said was the current default.

[code] When I select Japanese from the Task Bar language setting, anything typed in the Japanese language is incorrect. That is, the kana characters that appear are not the ones I typed. The Japanese keyboard appears to be incorrect.I have read many forums about this problem and can only guess the Win7 version I have is not compatible with the language pack I installed. Is there any chance there is some app available for download that will solve this problem? Perhaps I should also ask if there is a Japanese word processor, free version preferred, available I could use?My basic need is to type in kana, that is hiragana and katagana.

Connecting to my Access Point (WEP, Shared Key) works fine, but the network type becomes PUBLIC in the Network and Sharing Center and I cannot change it, it is read only there! My computer is not part of a domain but a member of a workgroup.
I need to change the network type for the above WiFi connection to WORK/HoME.

I recently reset the system to 'True Type' and did not like the appearance and turned off the True Type. However, I'm now left with applications that are still showing either parts of their software in True Type or all of their software's representation in same.Outlook, Bookmarked (on toolbar) Firefox pages, Explorer, and more.Is there not a way to get rid of True Type once selected?
