Numlock Off At Startup

A bit annoying when every time I turn on the computer and started to enter a password to log in to the desktop, I noticed my NumLock light is off, first I think there is damage to the numlock … since tried to several times the pressure cannot flame. Arose the idea to try this keyboard to another PC that was really no problem, so it can take the conclusion that this is a problem with my OS registry..

Start googling and I found a solution that can solve this problem …

how: to do a few changes to the registry for you to force your NumLock direct light every time you startup your PC.

  • Open the Registry Editor by regedit.exe in the Run box in start menu
  • Then find the address below …
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER>> Control Panel>> Keyboard>> InitialKeyboardIndicators

Set Value with a double click and Set value 2 for ON at Startup and set the value 0 for OFF at startup.

ACCESS DENIED - WINDOWS 7 PROBLEM SOLVED


On installing Windows 7 in your computer, you might have noticed that you cannot open certain files, and Win7 gives you the message “Access Denied”. This can be solved very easily.

1. Download Ultimate Windows Tweaker from The Windows Club.
2. Unzip it and run Ultimate Windows Tweaker.exe (it may ask for permission)
3. Go to Additional Tweaks and check wherever it says: Show "Take Ownership"
4. Restart your machine
5. Now right-click on the drive, folder, or file that is blocked and click "Take Ownership" and follow the prompts.
6. You can now access those files.

-----------
If this doesn't work
1. In the Tweaker, again, go to User Accounts & UAC
2. On the top right, you may find two options saying "Disabled". Enable them to enable the built-in Administrator.
3. Restart.
4. Log in to the Administrator account.
5. Right-click on the drive, folder, or file you desire permissions for.
6. Go to "Properties"
7. Go to "Security", then to "Advanced" and then to "Change Permissions"
8. Click on the User/Administrator account you use.
9. Check "Replace all child permissions....."
10. Press "Apply" and return.
11. Switch to your regular account. You may now be able to access the folders and files.

----------------
Other Go-around ways of solving it:
1. Copy that file to some other place and open it. However, if you copy it back to the same folder, it will not open, unless you have changed its name.
2. Right-click on the file and go to Properties-Security-Advanced. Then, select the User-Name and press the “Change Permissions” button. Check the box “Include inheritable permissions from this object’s parent” and press the “Apply” button. Press “OK”. Now, you can open the file.
For some files, the process is Properties-Security-Advanced, then press “Continue”, then select user and check the box “Include inheritable…”.
……….
In Detail
To those have recently upgraded to the Windows 7 OS and have begun to wonder why they can’t open some of their old folders and files, the answer is simple: curtailing of administrative privileges; the OS recognizes these files on the system to be older and locked. In addition, though you are the administrator, it has failed to fully handover the privileges to you when you created a user account. Anyways, not minding these complications, let’s get to the solution-point and Keep It Simple and Sound (KISS).
Folders
The folders seem to be permanently locked – I have not been able to see a solution, yet; any attempt to attribute the privileges is returned with the message “ACCESS DENIED”
But, that’s not bad news. Here is the solution:
1.Just select the folder (s) or all the files within the folder and copy them (CTRL+C).
2. Then, get out of that folder and paste those files wherever you like (perhaps, a good idea would be to make a new folder, name it, and paste the files within it.
You’ll get a message asking for administrator permission. Press “Continue”.
You can now open those files.
* Remember that if you tried copying these files back to the same old folder, they won’t open. So, you understand that the bug called “Folder locked” is a weak one.
*Also remember that Cut (CTRL+X) and paste won’t work.
Files
But, you can open the locked files within the same old folder; however, it takes a bit lengthier process.
1. Right-click on the file and go to “Properties“.
2. Find the “Security” tab, then go to “Advanced“.
3. You will be asked administrator permission. Press “Continue“.
4. Next, under “Permissions“, find and check the box next to “Include inheritable permissions from this object’s parent”.
5. “Apply“.


DVD Drive Not Found

Windows 7 can not find your optical drive? This is another issue that involves editing the registry. The warning from point 2 applies!

Click > Start, search for > ‘regedit‘ and launch it from the > results. Navigate to > ‘HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class‘. In the > right-hand panel delete > ‘UpperFilters‘ and > ‘LowerFilters‘, restart Windows and see if the problem was resolved.

If not, click > Start, type > Disk Management, and select > ‘Create and format hard disk partitions‘. In the > Disk Management window right-click on the > optical drive icon and select ‘Change Drive Letter and Paths‘. In the > Change Drive Letter and Paths window click the > Change… button and choose a new drive letter. Restart Windows and hope the issue was fixed.

Older Programs Not Compatible

Before upgrading to Windows 7, it is advisable to check which of your programs will be compatible. The Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor checks the most common programs. However, as I have outlined in my article How To Use Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor To Check PC Compatibility, you may have to do a manual check at the Windows 7 Compatibility Center for many other programs. Now, if you have already upgraded and if it turns out that a dear program of yours is not compatible, there is a way out: Windows 7 Compatibility Mode.

To install a program in Compatibility Mode, right-click its > installation file and select > Properties. In its > Properties windows switch to the > Compatibility tab, check > ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for:‘ and from the > pull-down menu choose the latest version of Windows of which you know that the program was running on.

problems with windows 7

You may have to repeat this step with the program itself once it is installed. Right-click the > program icon, select > Properties, switch to > Compatibility tab, check > ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for:‘, and choose the respective Windows operating system.

Furthermore, you can change the settings for the respective program and you should explore these, depending on the issue you’re facing.

problems with windows 7

Finally, if you went with Windows 7 Professional or up, you can use Windows 7′s XP Mode. It runs Windows XP as a virtual machine and you can install all programs that worked on Windows XP in this environment. Ars Technica has a very decent article on Windows 7′s XP Mode.

Windows 7 Seems Slow

Windows 7 is hungry for resources. It features many visual effects that draw heavy on your graphics card and system memory. If your system was slow out of the box, chances are you can easily fix that by turning off superfluous effects.

Go to > Start and type ‘performance‘ in the search field. Select > ‘Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows‘ from the results. The > Performance Options window will open. Under > Visual Effects select > Adjust for best performance. If you would like to retain a nice interface, select > Custom and check > ‘Use visual styles on windows and buttons‘.

Msimg32.dll Error Messages

here are several different ways that msimg32.dll errors can show up on your computer. Here are some of the more common ways that you might see msimg32.dll errors:

  • "Msimg32.dll Not Found"

  • "This application failed to start because msimg32.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."
    • Cannot find [PATH]\msimg32.dll"

    • "The file msimg32.dll is missing."

    • "Cannot start [APPLICATION]. A required component is missing: msimg32.dll. Please install [

      How to Fix Msimg32.dll Errors

      Important: Do not download msimg32.dll from a "DLL download" website. There are many reasons why downloading a DLL file is a bad idea. If you need a copy of msimg32.dll, it's best to obtain it from its original, legitimate source.

      Restore msimg32.dll from the Recycle Bin. The easiest possible cause of a "missing" msimg32.dll file is that you've mistakenly deleted it.

      If you suspect that you've accidentally deleted msimg32.dll but you've already emptied the Recycle Bin, you may be able to recover msimg32.dll with a free file recovery program.

      Important: Recovering a deleted copy of msimg32.dll with a file recovery program is a smart idea only if you're confident you've deleted the file yourself and that it was working properly before you did that.

      1. Run a virus/malware scan of your entire system. Some msimg32.dll errors could be related to a virus or other malware infection on your computer that has damaged the DLL file. It's even possible that the msimg32.dll error you're seeing is related to a hostile program that's masquerading as the file.

      2. Use System Restore to undo recent system changes. If you suspect that the msimg32.dll error was caused by a change made to an important file or configuration, a System Restore could solve the problem.

      3. Reinstall the program that uses the msimg32.dll file. If the msimg32.dll DLL error occurs when you use a particular program, reinstalling the program should replace the file.

        Important: Try your best to complete this step. Reinstalling the program that provides the msimg32.dll file, if possible, is a likely solution to this DLL error.

      4. Update the drivers for hardware devices that might be related to msimg32.dll. If, for example, you're receiving a "The file msimg32.dll is missing" error when you play a 3D video game, try updating the drivers for your video card.

        Note: The msimg32.dll file may or may not be related to video cards - this was just an example. The key here is to pay very close attention to the context of the error and troubleshoot accordingly.

      5. Roll back a driver to a previously installed version if msimg32.dll errors began after updating a particular hardware device's driver.

      6. Run the sfc /scannow System File Checker command to replace a missing or corrupt copy of the msimg32.dll file. If this DLL file is provided my Microsoft, the System File Checkertool should restore it.

      7. Install any available Windows updates. Many service packs and other patches replace or update some of the hundreds of Microsoft distributed DLL files on your computer. The msimg32.dll file could be included in one of those updates.

      8. Test your memory and then test your hard drive. I've left the majority of hardware troubleshooting to the last step, but your computer's memory and hard drive are easy to test and are the most likely components that might cause msimg32.dll errors as they fail.

        If the hardware fails any of your tests, replace the memory or replace the hard drive as soon as possible.

      9. Repair your installation of Windows. If the individual msimg32.dll file troubleshooting advice above is unsuccessful, performing a startup repair or repair installation should restore all Windows DLL files to their working versions.

      10. Use a free registry cleaner to repair msimg32.dll related issues in the registry. A free registry cleaner program may be able to help by removing invalid msimg32.dll registry entries that might be causing the DLL error.

        Important: I rarely recommend the use of registry cleaners. I've included the option here as a "last resort" attempt before the destructive step coming up next.

      11. Perform a clean installation of Windows. A clean install of Windows will erase everything from the hard drive and install a fresh copy of Windows. If none of the steps above correct the msimg32.dll error, this should be your next course of action.

        Important: All the information on your hard drive will be erased during a clean install. Make sure you've made the best attempt possible to fix the msimg32.dll error using a troubleshooting step prior to this one.

      12. Troubleshoot for a hardware problem if any msimg32.dll errors persist. After a clean install of Windows, your DLL problem can only be hardware related.
