Uninstall unknown application AND create association in folder opt by
psyddha
I mistakenly tried installing an incompatible product. Now I cannot open
email attachments (and some documents): am told I "must create an
association" in the folder options of the control panel. Aside from not
being able to figure out how to do that, when I try to uninstall the bogus
product, it...

Create Shortcut by
webster72n
When opening certain files with a specific icon, a "Create Shortcut" box
comes up instead of the file, asking for comment and command line, amongst
other things.
No idea how this developed, but it could possibly have something to do with
Tweak UI.
So far I was able to get around it but would like...

"Working in Background" by
Justin Thyme
I have set up my mouse pointer so that an hourglass is next to the pointer
when "Working in Background." The condition rather frequently occurs, or is
present, at the end of a long session and I'm ready to turn power off. I
don't know what's working; Process Explorer (the very latest release)...

know and toshiba have said that my laptop is 200MHz. Only today i have found

Excruciatingly slow (at times) by
ng_reader
I'm not sure exactly what the problem is, but whenever I am trying to save a
file to a location other than the default, my machine crawls along, ever so
slowly. You know, when I am using that little window that opens when I
download from a website, or when I am recording a CD to a location,...

My Windows Me calculator disappeared from my desktop by
Celticmist1
I ran a search and it is just not on my computer any more. Is there anyone
that knows how to restore my calculator? I have searched database and can
find nothing on the subject. It is really irritating not to have the use of
it.

Reload Outlook Express by
Smith
I'm helping a friend with his ME. I'm savy on XP, but not ME. His OE
doesn't start, the popup says msoe.dll missing. I've tried to fix that and
still OE doesn't open.
I've read the lengthy process at MS on reloading OE and it surely looks too
complicated. Can I just rerun the setup of ME on...

Login questions! by
Lunaray
How do I change the Username in the Windows Login box? Or better yet, how
do I eliminate the Login box altogether? I live alone and I'm the only one
using my computers, so I'd rather not have to login at all! I looked on
Microsoft's web site, but I didn't find much.
Thanks all!

Is there an alternative? by
George Gee
Hi all
Recently I have had to reinstall the OS.
Previously I had a very simple zip facility, just right-click a file or
files, send to
zipped folder.
Now I have a very colourful program, an evaluation of Winzip, with so many
buttons to click, before you get what you want!

WinMe "Setup.Exe" File by
AAH
Does the setup.exe file which come along
with OEM os differ from the normal/retail
version?
Can the setup.exe file dated 8/06/2000 can
work with OEM disk contents which are
in a different "compressed" format?
Thanks.
