View 1 Replies View RelatedArchived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?) I downloaded XP twice when I first set up my laptop. I just left it that way for years but now I am having problems with one of the copies and would like to remove it from my system. Does anyone have the fix? Needless to say I'm not real computer savvy.

I can't see my downloaded files. If I download a file and select a location too, then after the download is
finished I can't see it in that folder. Actually I can see hidden files
and so, but my downloaded file I can't. Where can I turn off this
behaviour, so that i see those files???

Since upgrading my computer and reinstalling Windows XP Home with all upgrades, I haven't been able to run executable downloaded files (most recently openoffice but also Google Earth Pro trial). The files download properly but when I try to run them them, I get the message "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I try to download a file from the Internet, I get a box sasying "Run/Open", "Save", and "Cancel" as always. When I click on either of the first two options, however, the box simply clicks and unclicks with no actions following it. Almost as if you click "Post" in a forum, but you hold the click on it and move the cursor elsewhere, stopping the system from performing that action. On some days, I can get my system to download about 5 files before I can no longer click "Save" or "Open".

I have downloaded, a new batch of .jpg files from a trustworthy site that I have been using without any problem for a couple of years. With the latest batch of files I find that whenever I try to open any one with PaintShop Pro, I get an Open File - Security Warning asking me if I really want to open it from an unknown publisher.
If I check the file's properties, I find it is blocked. I can unblock each file individually, either by changing the property or by checking an option on the Security Warning.
I can see no reason for this happening suddenly. I have found various possible solutions proposed (but for slightly different environments or file-types), but they do not work for me. Is there any really proven solution for either preventing the blocking in the first place or removing the block en block?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently downloaded a trial version of Dreamweaver; a 30-day trial. I worked on it a little, then left it alone for a couple of days. Now, when i try to find it, I can't. Searches turn up file folders of several types, but nothing that will allow me to run the program.
Where is it???!!! Why won't a search turn up something...an .EXE file or whatever, that will allow me to access the program. It's hiding somewhere and I can't figure out how to find it. it's far from the thirty days...maybe 10, if that.
Trying to download it again from the site doesn't work; they say that my email is already in use, so they are preventing me from downloading it again. I know I can try to contact them next week, but does anybody have a clue on this?
When I downloaded Internet Explorer 7, I lost my tool bar across the top and I do not know where to access it. Also, I do not know where to go to ask help for Internet Explorer 7.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI started having a strange problem happening. Upon windows 2000 start up, a DOS window opens saying that it is an instance of svchost.exe running. Now I know this has to run but this is the first time that it ever opened a window when doing it. So I figured something in the registry got whacked. So I downloaded spybot and ran it. It found 153 things that I certainly didn't want running on my computer. I had spybot delete them all. I then restarted my PC. The DOS window still pops up on startup.
I then looked at my start menu to see if something got added there that is starting this up on start up. Nothing. I then manually checked the register against another computer that I have that doesn't have the same problem. All instances of any calls to svchost.exe on both computers appear to be the same
Where do the XP updates (auto) go when they're downloaded ?
My PC told me there were some updates ready but when I was downloading them I had a power cut....
now it still says there are updates ready but it zips past the download stage (having recognised the files already exist) and goes straight into the installing stage but it always fails.
I suspect my original download has been corrupted by the power cut. I need to know where these downloaded updates get stored, so I can delete the file and start again.
I have downloaded an ActiveX control that gives me annoying popups. I have forgotten the name of the control. Here is my Hijack This report.

I have just finished a major rescue operation after my motherboard failed. I'm using Windows XP Home. Everything appears to be OK - except, having downloaded Spybot, when I try to run it, I get this message "There is no disc in the drive. Please insert a disc into drive DeviceHarddisk 1DR2". It doesn't matter which of the buttons I then click, nothing happens, and the only way I can get rid of it is to reboot the system. I had the same problem last May, although the context was different. I seem to remember that the only way I could fix the problem was to rename the virtual drive "c:" as "b:". Question - would that work? If so, how do you rename virtual drives, my memory isn't what it was, and I foolishly didn't write the process down.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis isn't really a threatening problem, but I was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem: I downloaded Windows XP SP2 through windows update yesterday
I intalled it and everything was fine until i couldn't connect to the internet.
"modem Hadware failure" or something like that.So, i System Restored back to the point before I downloaded and installed SP2, and now i can connect without any problems.(I disabled all the windows firewalls that came with SP2, so I doubt that the firewalls were the problem)
I have a Dell C521, havind Windows XP PRO installed on it. I'm having problems downloading and opening lots of files for Paint Shop Pro 7. These are some messages I get for various reasons. 'It does not look like your system is configured to properly view this file. You can continue but the file you are trying to view may look "wrong". For version PSP 7, you need MSVCRT10.DLL and MSVCRT.DLL loaded in both Windows and Windows/Systems Directories. This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options Control Panel. Files that are required for Windows to run properly must be copied to DLL Cache. Insert your Windows XP Proffesional Service Pack 2 CD now.
