UAC should have been a Business class feature, not for Home Users by
JD Wohlever
I hate to say so MS, but your average joe, the person you are making UAC
for, is going
to do exactly what they are doing, that is turning UAC off.
Example, my mother is your basic Internet User. She just graduated from AOL
to
a normal broadband connection after me telling her for years how much better
broadband would be for her. She bought a PC that had Vista Home Premium on
it.
Suddenly...

Windows cannot find file when clicking on file? by
mlsoup
I get the error message when double clicing on misc documents within my
folders that says "windows cannot find the specified file, please make sure
that you have typed the name correctly and please try again." I can open up
any document from within the application itself by going to file/open finding
the file and opening it that way.
It is extremely random though. It only happens on some...

Is Windows Vista index-based full-text search powerful enough? by
Peter Frank
Hi,
I have a couple of questions about the new index-based full-text
search of Windows Vista.
1) Is it powerful enough to handle huge amounts of data consisting of
PDF documents, Word, Excel and Powerpoint files (around 20 GB)? Or
would a third-party solution like dtSearch be the better choice? If
this is the better choice, can the indexing by Windows Vista be
disabled?

Zip files by
Waistcoat
Hi all,
I've suddenly lost my ability to unzip files.
Vista (business) doesn't seem to have an associated program, and I don't
know where to find it. Anyone know?
I don't really want to shell out 40 smackers for winzip if I don't have to.
I was able to decompress when I had XP, anyone know what happened?

lnk file association by

Long story short, I'm another one of the dozens of people whose shortcuts and
start menu files have turned into unassociated .lnk files. I've looked at
several other threads and tried the fix that they point to, namely the .reg
fix file. However, whenever I try to merge the file I get an error message
that reads:

Windows Vista x64 searches 5 times longer than Windows XP! by
Dima[_2_]
Hello!
Why does Windows Vista x64 search so long, especially when the progress in
the bar is at the end and the ring is rolling (a replacement for the sand
glass)?
When a search is not "nearly instantaneous" it takes nearly forever. That
is, when you ask for an Advanced Search of Computer, the bar first goes
half-way across fairly quickly. Then it goes more slowly to about 3/4 of
the way,...

Default view of folders reverts back to previous settings. by
Jeff Ingram
Hello,
The default view of folders sometimes reverts back to previous settings.
I've setup a folder with the view that I'd like for all of my folders, with
Details, Size, Create Date, & Modified Date (turned off Tag since it's of no
use to me whatsoever since I can't use it for MPEGS, AVIs, or Real files)
and then clicked Tools/Folder Options, then clicked the View tab and under
Folder Views,...
