i have fullhd monitor and fullhd TV. both in full hd resolution (i thing that is a reason of the problems) i have ATI 6850 Videocard so sometimes when i try to expand a window - it expending but i can't see it anywhere. So i start pressing win+shift+ left (right) until window is appearing. It seems like windows expands on the some third display! It happens without any system in it's behavior. Sometimes all of my desktop icons dissapears, so i press win+p and select (expand) and then i press win+p again and select &quotonly 2nd display&quot and my desktop icons are coming back.. There are no such problem on windows 7 x64 SP1 Ult. Thats why i think is a windows 8 problem. Thank you P.S. Windows 8 Prof. x64 View the full article

From the perspective of serious/business/desktop use of Windows 8... In my opinion Microsoft has actively degraded the user experience (UX) in various parts of Windows 8, presumably to encourage we users to use other parts they'd like to see become more popular. The obvious ones, discussed many times, include removal of clickable elements and visual styles in the desktop UI, including the Start button, Show Desktop button, etc., and reducing discoverability by hiding functionality in edges and corners. We really don't need to talk about the Start button again here. But beyond the above, there are subtle UX degradations I'm not sure everyone has noticed, which must have been done on purpose (unless you subscribe to the theory that development at Microsoft has gone out of control, which has some merit in its own right). We saw some of these things rolled out in subtle stages in the various preview versions, as though to &quotwean&quot us from the better UX. They have even come up with catchy terms such as &quotdigitally authentic&quot and &quotmodern UI&quot in order to sway opinion. These things simply serve to make using Windows 8 on a desktop system less pleasant. I'd like to have a discussion here about these things, in the hopes that Microsoft will see that we HAVE noticed, and we'd really like them to do better. I for one believe the future of desktop computing still has plenty of life, because power and richness is what data producers and business users need, and I don't see a need for Microsoft to exit that market to succeed in another one. Clearly they have kept the &quotlegacy desktop&quot in Windows 8 for a reason. There are those who say Microsoft is de-emphasizing desktop use because they want to go &quotall Metro/Modern&quot, and that may very well be true but in the interim, while the desktop is still supported shouldn't the UX be as smooth as possible? Why should it get worse? I'd love to hear from you here, supported by screen grabs or whatever as examples, about specifically what YOU think has been degraded. First impressions and those borne from sage experience are equally welcome. Everyone uses Windows a little differently, and please don't be shy to illustrate how you deal with the changing UX. -Noel Detailed how-to in my eBooks: View the full article

Seriously, Microsoft??? This same error has been coming up since Windows XP! It is January 2013. Windows 8 64x. Attempting to install Adobe 9, getting this same error. I run mmc services - the services IS started, IS set to manual, and the option to change the startup is grayed out. I am an administrator on my machine. I tried the following in a cmd.exe window &quotRun as Administrator&quot. &gt msiexec /unregister &gt msiexec /regserver &gt net stop msiserver &gt net start msiserver The service reported it successfully stopped and started. Still won't install, and anything else that uses the Microsoft Windows Installer won't install. I find nothing about this happening on a Windows 8 install. I am dual-booting Windows 7 and Windows 8, and it is happening only on Windows 8. Can't you get out an authoritative fix on this????? Seriously? Jacqueline Tregre View the full article

I can use Windows Explorer to move files and folders, send them to the Redycle Bin, and so on. I can drag them, or use the Alt/Edit/Copy/Paste drill, without a problem. However, if I try using the Organize tab with its drop-down menu, the top line of the screen says"(not responding") after file name, the screen freezes (but for the pointer), then usually goes feint, and nothing happens for a couple of minutes, Then up comes a small Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library screen and stays there for another few minutes. What am I doing wrong? Or is there a fault somewhere? Michael View this thread
