pdf and vista by JohnA
When accessing a link to a web site that has a pdf file, I click on the link, a new window opens, and finally at the bottom of the window the work done appears. Screen stays blank. On another computer everything works well. Both computers are vista and IE 8. Is there some setting that would cause this or another newsgroup I need to see?

Can Not delete item from External drive by TBaum
I'm have a problem deleting a folder from my external hard drive. It has 2 subforums, and in the last one is an .avi file. Whenever I try to delete it I get "Could not find this item... This is no longer located in ----- Verify the item's location and try again." I've tried Taking Ownership and command prompts, as well as Unlocker.

Customizing Windows Explorer toolbars by Michael
Just installed Vista. Not terribly wild about it so far. Willing to give it a chance, though. On Windows Explorer, what has happened to the ability to customize the toolbars? I used to be able to add cut/copy/paste/delete icons to the toolbar. Saved time, added convenience. Doesn't appear to be there anymore. Am I missing something? Is there some whole new concept of how I should be working...

how to make a folder password protected? by Technician
I wonder why nobody replied the question on password protecting folders. I am not sure if the post author is still interested in the answer but I guess a reply may still be useful if you find this post when searching the forum. I always search for an answer before posting a question. So here you are. Windows does not allow you to password protect a particular folder. You can only password...

Can't delete item from destktop by Jarjar
Using vista 64 and I have a folder that contains another folder with a small file inside. Vista will NOT allow me to delete the folder from the desktop. I have tried everything that I know to do: 1. I tried to delete from the command prompt. 2. I tried renaming to folder. 3. Downloaded a "unlocker" program as suggested in other posts, doesn't work on 64 bit. This is driving me nuts....Any...

Vista 64 Search is not seeing any of my Outlook 2003 contacts. by chunnel
I just installed Vista 64. Search is working fine and pulls up tif's and doc's etc... However, it is no longer finding contacts from Outlook 2003. Is there some setttings that I need to change? I have already had the index start over from scratch and that didn't solve the problem. Will the 64 bit system just not find 32 bit Outlook files?

Current, in Windows, even the inside sub-folder is updated, the top level folder date is not changed. How do I make the top folder's Date Modified reflect the latest modified dates of any items inside the...
