Bugs: 1. "Rename" has no shortcut key (s/b F2). 2. When choosing rename from the context menu, the dialog box OK control is focused, rather than the "New Title" text box. OK should be disabled until text is entered anyway. Annoyances: 1. Renaming should be in-place, without requiring a dialog box. 2. Multiple-page scans should be splittable. 3. Folders from other OS locations should be usable...

I have just purchased a new computer from Dell and assumed I would have some problems learning a new OS, but I did not anticipate the loss of a good applet like Microsoft Fax. I counted on this small program for occasional direct communication with other facilities fax machine. It was quick and easy.

I am receiving an error message when I am trying to print in IE7. The message states: Cannot find 'file://V:/User/Armin/AppData/Local/Temp/Low/D888RABN.htm'. Make sure the path or Internet address is correct. When I hit ok another home page is starting up. The path exists but the file doesn't.

When printing a document to Adobe Distiller, why does it save it to the Temporary Internet File even though I specified the document to be saved in a designated folder? How do I disable this function? I'm using Windows Vista. Thanks in advance.

What is the correct way to delete / uninstall / remove a USB printer so all it's driver files are also removed so that, if reconnected, it will be discovered by Windows (new hardware found) just as if it had never previously been connected?

Next day, although the printer...

I typed up a spreadsheet on Works, but it won't print? Is my printer incompatible? The error message said it's from trying to print from Works 8 to a Windows Vista-based computer. Is there some way to make this work and print my spreadsheet?

I've got a Windows 2000 print server that supports both standard print share and IPP. For IPP, I turned on basic authentication and HTTPS so that users require to login before they can submit print job. The setup works fine for all Windows clients except Vista.
