Can' Erase DVD by
JamesJ[_4_]
Vista Basic 32bit sp2.
I have a DVD/CD rewritable. I've created a slide show using different jpegs on 2 DVDs.
The only difference is one dvd is a Sony the other is a Memorex. Both slideshows were
created with the same software. But, on the Sony I'm unable to erase or format the disk.
Vista tells me the Sony is Write Protected. In fact the right click option to 'Erase Disc' is missing.

Hello, can anyone help?
Is it possible when viewing photos in Vista photo gallery to display my
picture files in an order other than by name, date taken or file size
etc.. ie the options offered under 'the sort by' feature.
I would like to customise each folder to display the photos in an order
of my choosing but this does not appear possible for the photo gallery
in vista or the live photo...

I'm having trouble with shortcuts not working (not doing anything) in
Vista. About as much as I can explain is that shortcuts with greyed out
fields don't work, but shortcuts with all the fields editable work fine.
Examples below.

How to Bulk Unblock Files by
Sue & Bill
I think since XP SP2 days, a new security attribute was added to files
such that files that came in by IM, email, or across the network were
separately identified and blocked from being executed. To unblock,
one need to go the Properties of the file and then click the Unblock
button.
XP was rather lax in enforcing blocking. But Vista appears to block
everything, including html files inside a...

Where is the StartMenu by
Michael Moser
This Vista constantly trying to protect me from myself is driving me
nuts! In XP it was a snap to add a new Folder to the StartMenu. Not so
in Vista! Where *IS* this stupid folder?
And why can I not navigate certain Junctions? There is a
"StartMenu"-junction in my C:\Users\me folder, but when I double-click
it to open that folder I get an "Access Denied". It's me and I own this
darn box...

I don't have a 'Csc'

Search Function by
Flash Gortdon
OK...I know Vista is the NEW Windows...but surely the Search function could
have been made a bit more user friendly to the computer illiterate.
I click on Start...and in the Search box typed
*.pst
I KNOW there are 3 versions of this file on my computer and attached
External Hard Drive (that is also part of the index sequence, etc)

Greetings,
I know this sounds like the absolute lamest question ever- but its driving
me nuts... and I'd rather look stupid and get an answer than continue to be

System Restore Size? by
EW[_2_]
Is there any way to set the maximum size of Vista Home Premium allotted
restore point space? If so, I can't find it. I see no use for restore
points from several months ago, if the system is running well, and there are
recent points to rely on.
Thanks.

Installing older software by
Mike Schuler
All of my business files and books are made in MSWorks 4.5 for Windows 95.
The newer versions of Works will not open up these files, so I've been
continuing to use MSWorks 4.5 on my XP computer. I've installed in on my new
Vista computer, but I can't make it run. If I try to open a file, it tries
to open it in Works version 8 which can't open the file. How do I get it to
run MSWorks 4.5?
