I have been a happy user of vista for a while now and until a couple of days ago I could just click on 'Documents' In Start Up List and see my documents.Since trying to save a document from a reliable web-site I now find I cannot access them this way and find if I go to Documents and Settings access is denied (I am an administrator on the pc).I can get to see the documents via Users, but why is it suddenly so complicated when it was so simple a few days ago, I have run various virus checks etc and all seems clear. ThanksAlso editing documents in 'Windows Office' is very slowPS. I have Vista View this thread

I have a new, HP laptop that came with Windows 7 Home (64 bit). About 3-4 weeks ago I upgraded it to Win 7 Pro (64 bit), and have not had any problems until now. My laptop is set to download & notify me when updates are available - but let me choose when to install them. This morning, I got the usual message on my taskbar that updates were available to install. I clicked on install and waited. After several minutes, the message that updates had been successfully installed appeared. But, after that, I (again) received a message saying that updates were available to be installed. They were two updates that had been reported as installed, but didn't. The first …

Suddenly I am getting popups that say Microsoft Security Essentials is cleaning a problem , no action required. Nothing has changed on my machine as far as I know. I looked at the GUI and there is no indication that this is going on. Is this bogus, in a loop or something nefarious has crawled into my laptop.

Does MSE stop MAL? One of my colleagues had this problem recently ... apparantly it spreads automatically in email 'links' and is quite dangerous. He and I communicate regularly ... how do I know if he has passed it to me? Full scans with MSE and the 'manual' Malwarebytes fortunately show nothing. View this thread

Office Professional Plus and SharePoint Workspace

I have a client that keeps all office document files on a local server organized in subfolders. They want some designated folders on the server to be synchronized with SharePoint automatically. When they modify documents in this designated folder, they don't want to have to remember to initiate the synchronization process. Is there anyway to set this up using SharePoint workspaces or Groove workspaces? The key thing is that they want to keep all files on the local server as they do not want to lose Internet connection to SharePoint Online and not be able to access the files. Plus, they don't want to wait several seconds for the document to download. View this t…

All my Windows 7 desktop items have disappeared. They are present in C:usersmyusernamedesktop. If I create a new icon by right-clicking on the desktop, it appears in that folder, but NOT on the desktop. I tried running the Microsoft Fixit tool - no fault found!!!! All I can find on the internet relates to some DVD writing software I do not have or shortcuts to server programs, etc None of my shortcut icons will appear, but gadgets are OK. Any ideas?

WHS does not show up when IPscanning my network ...

- 52 views
Hi. I "lost" my WHS : the connector does not work anymore and when I do an IPscan (192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.255) I can see my network computers and nothing else especially not at 192.168.1.201 which is normally the fixed local IP adress of my WHS. I noticed as well that the orange led of the WHS ethernet connection is flashing slowly ; to me this points out to a problem with the WHS NIC. Unfortunately I cant check it as my server is a Fujitsu Scaleo with no monitor and no possibility to connect it to a monitor . Can someone give me a clue as to how to overcome this problem ? Many thx FG <hr class="sig"> FG View this thread
