Hello, I've noticed that Desktop and Modern apps differently handle contents of Libraries. Symptoms When you add a folder to a Windows library this added folder is displayed differently in Desktop and Modern apps. If you expand or open the library in a Desktop application such as Windows Explorer, you will see added folder and all the subfolders within that added subfolder. When opening the same library from a Modern app, such as Mail, you will see only the subfolders but not the added Library: Pictures Folder you add to the library: X:| |-Pictures-| |-Pictures-| |-Mine |-Special Folder structure as seen from a Desktop app: X:| |-Pictures-| |-Pictures-| |-Mine |-Special Folder structure as seen from a Modern app: X:| |-Pictures-| |-Mine |-Special View in Windows Explorer: View in Mail app: [url=' alt='> [url='> NOTE: The Pictures folder in this figure of Mail app is the Windows library and not the Pictures folder added to the Pictures library. Where is the folder I added to the library? How do I save files to that folder from the Mail app? Well this is the world we live in And these are the hands we're given... View the full article

Hello. We have a GPO that amongst other things forces a corporate desktop wallpaper on our client PCs. We've now got a handful of windows 8 machines that we've started testing and this all appeared to be working as it should do, but recently one of them has started giving a plain black desktop background. When we had this in the past on a couple of W7 clients we used the hotfix as mentioned in the link below, but there doesn't seem to be an equivalent for W8 and the registry change mentioned in the same article had no effect. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/977944?wa=wsignin1.0 Has anyone else had this issue and resolved it?

My computer was acting 'weird' -- unstable. And I was working to "fix" it -- cleaning disk, getting rid of extra software, etc. I also have an external hard drive. I was in Outlook and all of a sudden my Outlook got stuck and would not "unstick". I closed the computer, reopened and my pst files showed that they were "gone". So I went online and did a lot of research. I couldn't find the files, even though I'd unhidden everything UNTIL I did a search for them and they showed up as being there. But I couldn't get them to work with Outlook. So I called HP, where I have a service contract. We cleaned out the computer. Uninstalled MS office then reinstalled It. Unistalled ie 9.0, then reinstalled it. Removed Google Chrome but added Advant browser as i.e 9.0 doesn't allow me to delete or add newsletters from my newsletter program. The unstableness of my computer seems to have gone away from the work we did. But still the PST problem existed. I would open Outlook, it wanted 'x' files, from my external hard drive, and couldn't find them. Finally after searching for an answer I was able to create a new database in Outlook so that at least I can open it, use it and disable the files that it's trying to get that "aren't working'. Those files are on my external hard drive. I was able to unengage all files except one that it insisted it was using. That database, I am unable to to get into the emails BUT the system allowed me to send/receive mail using the files from it and I can send emails pretty easily since the old email addresses show up in the To/From area (they do not show up in the contact file) Also the sytem opens the reminders. Just NO Contact List and no access to emails. Someone, at the MS Forum told me to do a check disk. I did. My hard drive is AOK. My external hard drive, it found some files and saved them to a folder called FOUND. Still no easy access to the PST files.. in fact, now they're gone. They seem to be in the FOUND folder as CHD files. I see their size and they are my PST files, 2gb and 3gb each -- but I can't seem to open them. Thoughts? Advise? The kicker. When I brought all those old files to my new computer and external hard drive. I thought that I was accessing the files from my external hard drive (and it was) BUT I thought it was backing up the files on my new computer. It didn't do what I thought it was doing. So I'd really like to try to save those CHD files and turn them back into PST files. Thanks for reading this book of what's been going on. Maria Any thoughts on how to open them?

We have three different live accounts. Just about every other day when checking for messages on all accounts we get a notice that one or the other of the three accounts is not accessible, then, of course, after a bit the account does miraculously become accessible again. Why is that? Nothing at all wrong with the Internet connection. We’ve just about had it with this nonsense. Can’t Microsoft get their tools working properly? View the thread

I have a Dell Inspiron M5110 that came preinstalled with Windows 7 Home Premium. Like the title says, The welcome screen just stays on for hours with hard drive light solidly on. Not one flicker in the light whatsoever. I also have trouble booting into Safe Mode, kind of a hit or miss type of thing. Once it has booted into Safe Mode, Welcome screen stays stuck for hours. I (thankfully) have Ubuntu 12.10 Linux (64-bit) on the computer. I booted into Ubuntu 12.10 to check the hard drive status and bingo, it said in the SMART data that I had one bad sector, just one. I also had a Blue screen of death regarding a REGISTRY_ERROR yesterday. Computer Specs: Processor: AMD A8-3500M APU Quad Core 1.5GHz Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 6620G System Chipset: AMD A70M RAM Memory: 4GB 1333MHz DDR3 SODIMM Hard Drive: Western Digital Corporation 500GB (WDC WD5000BPVT-75HXZT3) WiFi: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11 b/g/n I previously had the Stock Seagate 500GB HDD that came with the computer but it had to be replaced under warranty due to 1000 bad sectors and was failing according to SMART. The Western Digital is the replacement. Is there any way to fix this issue? View the thread

My job requires me to work on a virtual machine installed on a 3.0 flash drive. I was previously working through a virtual machine that was installed on my hard drive and never had any issues with my mouse stop working. Now that we have changed over to the virtual machine on a flash drive, my mouse stops working once a day. I've changed the mouse out for a new one and that one stops working too. I have to force shut down on my PC and reboot to get it to start working again. What could be causing this issue? View the thread
