Right-click Will Not Save Files
Aug 23, 2005
When I right click to "Save Image as" on a graphic file, the "Save As" window pops up and it lets me go through all the motions of selecting a location and name for the file, but then it does not actually save it when I click the "Save" button. The file does NOT get saved. And the progress and completion window does not come up to confirm the save.This has happened once before about a year ago, and I somehow fixed it by accident. Now it has happened again, and for the life of me.

This is kind of related to my ctrl+alt+del button, as well as my favorites button freezing. Once I am online for 30 minutes or so, when I go to an image and right click>save as, the window will freeze and I will have to close it. Same with my favorites button, after 30 minutes or so being online, it will freeze when i click it. I can use the Favorites drop-down list (in between view and tools) fine, so that isnt too big of a problem. This is also the same with my crtl+alt+del, it will freeze after being on 30 minutes or so. But it doesnt happen everytime, just sometimes.

I have a Compaq, Windows XP, and I think Internet Explorer 7. After receiving and installing updates, I am not sure anymore. Here are my problems...
1. I cannot find the internet option tab anymore. It is not anywhere.
2. Right clicks are not working. I cannot save pictures or add any favorites when I right click.
3. Cannot print from most websites.
4. I cannot activate ActiveX.

Have Win2K/IE6...how do I delete unwanted menu items from the Right Click "Save Image As" menu? The number of items causes the menu box to be either top justified or bottom justified, depending on where the cursor is located when the right click button is used. I am therefore having to move the cursor all over the screen to chase the desired "save Image" command. Also, with IE6, several menu items have been added (over IE5)....but, I am NEVER going to "email picture", "print picture", nor "go to my pictures" from this menu box. I could delete 7 of these pesky items, if I knew how, thus making this a much more user friendly menu box.

I have Windows XP. When I download a file (WP, pdf, etc.), and it asks me to open or save it, it will only let me save it. If I try to open it, it seems to download, but then the relevant application never opens, and I get a message that I may not have the appropriate permission. So I have to save it, then open the application myself, then open the saved file.

A friend is running xp home edition and cannot boot his pc due to corrupted files. He hasn't got his set up disc and adding the hard drive to another pc as a slave drive didn't work. I have used Bart's PE Builder to save files from a pc before but the disc was made from XP Pro. My question is can a Bart's disc made from XP Pro work on a pc running home edition?

I've been trying to figure out this problem that I have with Windows XP but to no success. My computer has been disconnected for about 3 months. And i've recently moved into another place and hooked up my computer. But my problem now is when I download new programs onto my computer, it does not save onto my computer. When I turn off my computer and turn it back on, the program I just installed is not there no more. Same thing when I add media files to my Windows Media library, it stays on there till the computer shuts down. And when I turn the computer back on, I have to load the files on the library again.

Sometimes a website allows you only to play an MP3 file, not to save it. During playing WMP will say x% downloaded. Play the entire mp3 or wait for the download indicator to reach 100%.

I've become unable to download and save files to my machines (Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003 SBS SP1). The download goes ahead, but at the point of writing the file to my local hard disk, I get the following error message, then the file is deleted!!!"Windows Security Warning Windows found that this file is potentially harmful.To help protect your computer, Windows has blocked access to this file."I wouldn't mind, but I haven't changed anything that would have enforced this, can't find any way of disabling / configuring this functionality and I trust the file and its source (a good example is the Grisoft AVG Anti-Virus software downloads!)

I am a 'Novice' to Backups, but am trying to learn.Where is the best place to save Backup files? I am running XP Prof. and carefully ran the Backup utility. I noticed the different options on places to save the files. I noticed I can save it to the 'D' drive (external disc), or my 'C' drive (hard drive). What happens if I save it to my 'C' drive, and my pc crashes.How do I retreive my Backup files, if I cannot turn on my pc? Is it best to save them on disc?

My husband's computer which gets scanned for viruses every day, all of sudden cannot open or save any file. The first error message states that the file is in use by another user (this is an unnetworked laptop). When we click on Notify, it says the file cannot be found or server unavailable. This happens for every Word, Excel, file that we have tried. I have tried to check for microsoft updates but even the temp directory cannot be written (says that it is read-only) to so I cannot install anything.

I can not launch 90% of my apps, word, excel, adaware, when I click on the program it launches, and I get the .exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Then it shuts down that program. I can not add any new favorites to my internet explorer, does the same thing. I can not download a file and save it, I can download a file and run it though, not always successfully. Pretty much the pc is becoming crippled I have run registryfix7 (had it installed) fixed what was listed, but no helpI have done a full virus scan and spyware scan with Windows LiveOneCare, nothing shows up.

I bought a new Dell Dimension 2400 about a year ago. It runs Windows XP Home. I don't remember all of my specs (I'm at work), but here is my problem.
First, booting up takes a long...time. When I finally log in, I get an error message: HP AiO Device Object failed: hRes = 0x800706BAThe RPC Server is unavailable.Maximum retry attempts exceeded.I click ok and it brings up my desktop, but originally would not bring up my Start button and taskbar. After messing with it all day yesterday, I finally got a taskbar, but not my usual one. I can open some programs, but can't save any files to floppy or CD. Everything is very slow...and I do mean very! Most of the time the Task Manager will show "Not Responding", sometimes it will eventually start running again and sometimes I just have to "End Process".

My computer started deleting files. A DOS window popped up and began systematically deleting programs and files. I was able to stop it by turning off the computer. When I turned on the computer again the random deleting had stopped, but I had lost my music files and my mail files. If this wasn't a virus, what else could cause this to happen?
