How to delete windows key I integrated to Windows 8 Pro with WMC Iso?

Which is the opposite/contrary of it?
I got a problem in Windows 8.1 which doesn't detect the integrated webcam. It worked fine the last week but today it just wont start. My laptop is a DELL Inspiron 14R 5437.
I already reinstalled the Chipset with no luck. Also, opened Device Manager but there was no "imaging devices" label. Did an unistall of USB Root Hub, then restarted, but nothing. Checked BIOS but dont know where to really enable/disable.
Build-in app Camera in windows 8.1 shows "to get started connect a camera". Skype displays "Skype couldn't find a webcam. With a webcam, you can make video calls..."
How to get Dell's Integrated webcam to work? I have drivers install apparently (according to device manager), yet I'm unable to access the webcam.

I'm wondering if there are any settings adjustments i can do to make the graphics card run faster. I mean i have 16gb of ram, shouldnt that be a lot of shared ram for the graphics card?
I've downloaded a legal iso from MAPS, i ve slisptremed all latest updates into it with Windows download integrator (it uses dism afaik) , then the problems comes in - i cannot use USB as my install.wim is 4,8 GB. I ve burned a Dual layer DVD with Windows 8 stock recorder and the PC doesnt see the DVD drive as bootable. When using stock it boots uefi from pendrive without any problems. How to make this updated iso boot into UEFI mode ?

No such problem when using the Desktop Skype. Might the combination of Metro App and Desktop version be causing trouble? Should the Desktop version be uninstalled?
Just tried the Logitech Web Cam software and found a log-jamb with the sound slider. Don't know why but I've now got it working again with both App and Desktop versions and back in business again.
I upgraded my laptop software to win8.1. My webcam in the device manager looks to the integrated camera but webcam is not working. I tested by Dell PC Diagnostics shows my webcam is installed and its picture from camera showed but windows camera app and all app don't show anything.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI use keyboard shortcuts extensively. Some are application specific, some are system shortcuts. I am finding that Windows 8 shortcuts are overriding shortcuts I use in some applications, and I would like to be able to delete or reassign the system shortcut so I can use it in an application. However, while there is a myriad of posts on different people's ideas of "essential" keyboard shortcuts, I can find no information on how to change shortcuts.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am a long time user of XP and in the past year have taken the plunge into 8. Whenever I delete a folder in XP, if that folder is open in an explorer window, the window automatically closes. When I delete a folder that has a window open in 8, the window simply navigates to the default explorer location. When I an doing folder maintenance, I am basically ending up with a whole bunch of open windows.
Any setting I can change to make the window of a deleted folder close automatically?
I have Windows 8.1. I also use Start8 so my desktop looks like Windows 7. When I try and clean up the start menu, by deleting short cuts of programs I don't use, like metro apps (PC Settings & Store) once I delete these short cuts I can no longer access PC settings or Store. When I click PC settings in the Metro Menu it does nothing. Same with Store app. If I restore the deleted short cuts to these programs it works again. I've tried to hide these programs from the start menu but that option to hide is greyed out.
A; Hide these apps from the start menu without deleting them.
B. Delete them from the start menu but have them still work in the Metro Menu.
Copied my Outlook file to another computer but the rules i have all get in error on the second pc.
Since there are a few hundred of them and since i can only deleted one rule at a time....here is the question:
Is there a way to remove all the rules fast, maybe in the register?
The copied file with the rules comes from Outlook 2013, copied in Outlook 2010.
As a test i copied the PST file from another computer (Outlook 2007) in which there are no rules, but i cannot get rid of the rules in error.
Reinstalling Outlook 2010 can be nice, but no guarantee that this solves the problem.
I recently opened a USB drive on my PC and noticed that the drive says to have 0 bytes of space left and the file is read-only. I cannot delete it or format the drive. I have even tried taking ownership of the file through an elevated command prompt where I was faced with the error: "File ownership cannot be applied on insecure file systems; there is no support for ACL's."

I downloaded a CD ripper the other day called EZ CD. I want to uninstall it but am running into problems everywhere I turn.
When I try to uninstall from Control Panel I get a message that says ezcd64.dll is in use. According to Task Manager, it is not. I tried opening the program and Xing out of it (there are no menu choices to close or exit) but I still get the same error. There isn't an option to uninstall from the Programs list in Classic Shell. When I go to the metro screen (or whatever it's called now), I get an undelete option but it just opens the Control Panel and I get the same error message.
I tried going to C: Program Files (it is in there, not Program Files (x86)). There is an uninstall.exe file but when I launch it, I get this message: Invalid start mode archive file name.
I read somewhere where I should try to close anything running in the background in Task Manager that the CD software might be using. I can't even begin to figure out what those might be and know just enough about computers to be dangerous. I tried closing iTunes which wasn't open but some piece of it was running. That's about as brave as I got and when I tried uninstalling from Control Panel after stopping that, I got the same error.
I recently had both the guest and the built-in "Administrator" account enabled, but just today I decided to turn them off. Now there are two folders in C:Users (Guest and Administrator), and I was wondering if I can delete them. I probably will use neither ever again, but I do not want to mess up anything. I just wanted to get rid of some space.

I've made my integration which pre-enables the .netframework 3.5 into my .wim images, my AIO includes w8, w8 pro, w8 pro WMC and w8 Enterprise for both architectures, now I'm facing the problem that the iso exceeds the weight by 22 MB, so I'm forced to use a dvd9, now that the feature is preinstaled into de the win images I think that I can reduce the space by deleting the .net framework files for 3.5 in the sxs folder but exactly which files do I have to delete?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a game shortcut that I want to remove from the Games Explorer (and by extension, the Start Menu).

Windows XP has a delay time of a few seconds when deleting an in-use file. (Example: when an mp3 file is open and you delete that file, Windows XP will say that it is deleting the file for about 3 seconds, then says that it cannot delete the file, since the file is open).
I want to set the settings in Windows 8 to do exactly the same thing. Windows 8's default setting is to immediately state that the mp3 file is in use and cannot delete it. I want Windows 8 to wait for 3 seconds until it states that it cannot delete it.
Reason why I need this option is that I delete the file first, then I change the mp3 file so it is no longer in use. That's the only order of doing this thing that I do.
Trying to delete a folder I get "Folder Access Denied" -- need to provide administrator permission to delete this folder. I am the only account on this PC an am Administrator. I click continue and get the same message with "Try Again".
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently ran a Disk Cleanup as part of my regular maintenance on my new computer. It had over 2.18GB of files to cleanup. That seemed a little high considering I run it every week to 2 weeks. It said it deleted all the files. I ran the Scan Disk again to be sure and it still had 2.18GB of files. I ran it again. Same result. I have a ton of room on the computer right now, but this could be a major problem down the road. Why my Disk Cleanup would appear to be working and then not delete anything?

I'm trying to delete the local google folder on my computer(then reinstalling) in the program files(x86) and It will not let me. Saying "Folder access Denied" I require permission, even though I'm the administrator. I came across this site:Take Ownership Of Files And Folders In Windows 8 where they offered a way to add a "Take ownership" option to my menu options and included a uninstall reg file.
I already saw a similar thread on this site : Take Ownership - Add to Context Menu in Windows 8 but did not download from it b/c I did not know how to remove the reg file. I tried the take ownership from the first site and it didnt work, I used the uninstall reg file and now i'm frustrated and back to square one.

have windows 8 cp installed .
I have a hard drive connected to a hard drive caddy, and am using it as an external hard drive: and it contains various audio/text/video files, and these were added to the hard drive when I was using windows xp
Now, however I find some of these files are "locked" onto the hard drive - I cant move them anywhere else. If I try to do this I get the message that I don't have administrative privileges to do so I have tried disabling uac but it situation still the same.
My Pc has only one user account (mine) and I am of course, the administrator accordingly. because I installed windows 8 myself with just me as only user.
