I have Windows Vista Home Premium as my OS. I have a program that I use daily. To get it to work correctly I had to check 'run as administrator'. How do I now get the program to be a 'known' and 'trusted' program? TIA. Regards, Sam Holbrook

I built a new box and installed Vista Ultimate a couple of years ago, which has begun to occasionally reboot in a spontaneous and random manner. I don't recall exactly when this began, but the first time it happened was at least 6 months ago. And it's not often; maybe averaging once every 3-4 weeks. It has nothing to do with how long the PC has been on: sometimes I've been on it for hours;...

Vista ultimate. I want to search multiple dtsx files for the existence of a string that includes a double quote. Specifically: ProtectionLevel"1 When I search for that string, it appears to treat the double quote as a space, and returns files that contain both "ProtectionLevel" and "1", but not necessarily juxtaposed. Maybe there's an escape character I can prefix the double quote with?

Hello, all. I know that this has been covered in quite a few other threads, but I've yet to find a solution to my issue and am hoping someone may be able to assist me. I recently had to replace my desktop, which was using XP, with a new system that is running Vista. I know my way around a system fairly well, but I'm having trouble finding out how to make my on-screen volume meter return to...

I recently noticed that links in the Start Menu's recently used programs and quick start part of the Start Menu don't work. This only seems to be for Microsoft Office 2007 programs (Word, Excel, etc). These shortcuts work fine when accessed from the Start-All Programs-Microsoft Office menu or the Programs directory directly. I also noticed that the Device Manager link under "Tasks" in the...

I received another box of Da Lamb Chop so I can rub Da Baboon. Since no one else will rub Da Baboon, I gotta do it

I am using Vista Home Premium. It had been working satisfactorily until about a month ago, on startup, it loaded the Windows default desktop and gave me the error message "Your User Profile has not loaded correctly. See Event Log". The Administrative Events Log showed one or more "User Profile Service" errors. I do not know enough to understand them, but one, but one error number was...

Greetings! This newsgroup message is an assignment from a local community college regarding using newsgroups. The subject listed above, my favorite feature of Vista, is fortunately an easy one for me to answer: It will not be a retail operating system much longer.

Hello. This has worked for a long time, but suddenly it stopped. I hook up my TV to my HP Pavilion laptop via an HDMI cable. Picture works. Sound does not. I have Conextant sound. Yes, I chose SPDIF as the default in the Control Panel. Yes, I un-installed and re-installed the sound drivers. What changed since the last time this worked? Upgraded Vista to Ultimate. HP did a BIOS update. Many...

http://onestat.com/html/press-release-microsoft-windows-vista-global-usage-share-december-2008.html Yeah, one can always come up with an excuse as to why not and things are not correct in his or her opinion, but show me some figures that say otherwise.

I have two programs that need to run on boot up. In both cases I get prompted to allow. Can I turn this prompt off for particular users by turning UAC off? Or does it turn off for everyone? Can UAC be configured to be off for JUST these two programs? Appreciate any help.

There are two characters who post in this ng, yes you know who I mean they are the two fruitcakes who keep protecting windows by spouting crap to anyone who praises Linux or the Mac who are really ruining this ng.

In the Vista version of Windows Explorer the names of a folder is usually displayed at the bottom (or underneath) the folder icon. They have suddenly disappeared. Can anyone tell me how to get them back. They still appear in 'properties'. Thanks, Noel
