Hello, my name is Christopher Kim, one of Windows XP HE users. I have some
questions about using Windows and I would like Microsoft to answer them since
Microsoft made Windows. =)
1. How can I apply all folders with same setting?
2. How do I set task panes?
3. How do I delete autocomplete of Run and File Search?
4. How has the memory length developed over time?
5. How do I set privileges for limited users?
1. I have looked at the folder options, but checking off "Remember each
folder's view settings" didn't really satisfy my file arrangements.
Sometimes, I have to make new folders and files, and if they are not arranged
or viewed easy to me, I would have to manually set the view settings. This
has got me enough. Please, help me how to remember a view setting from some
sort of "Default Folder" that I wanted to be then apply that settings for ALL
folders including the new ones.
2. I assume that someone had used my PEHD and innocently tried to test if it
works fine. I have concluded that this person's first file to copy was a
picture because the picture tasks appeared on the left column of my H drive.
The problem is even if I formatted the H drive, the picture task was still
alive(?). I have tried to get rid of it, but there was nothing I could do.
It's a not-so-big problems, but I would actually want to view the task panes
that I want. Of course, I would appriciate if Microsoft explains me how to
remember this setting like my first question.
3. I KNOW the autocomplete settings for the Internet Explorer, but I do not
have any clue on autocompletes for Run and File Search. In Run, the
application I typed last time is memorized and appears again. I would
strongly disagree have this kind of memorizations. I would simply would
disable using Run command at all because who knows some "guest" might mess up
my msconfig.exe and regedit.exe? In file search, one of the preferences says
"Turn autocomplete off." If it's off, why does the list of search appears as
soon as I turn it back on? I would strongly want to delete the whole
autocompletes. Please explain me how to DELETE the file search autocomplete.
4. It's the most clever question you would see so far, and it's the
Microsoft hardware question! Somewhere in my mind reminded me that back in
old days, like 10 to 15 years ago, any disk could memorize files less than
one day, so it would seems like some hacker might have deleted your data in
the disk when the disk was actually in your pocket for the whole time. I
wouldn't ask HOW can the disk memorize files, but I'm so curious about how
the memorizing length has developed so far. Of course, in these days, it
seems the disk can remember billions of files for more than 100 years,
guaranteeing the "life time secure." I have also heard that CD-Rs lose their
data sometime in our lives. I wouldn't want to believe that, but it would be
very kind of Microsoft to tell me the truth of this rumor.
5. This can be an out-of-subject question, but I have already asked anyway.
At school, it's Windows XP Professional, and I expect the computers to have
installed Service Pack 1 or 2. However, I was pretty amazed about how I use
the school computer. after exiting Screen Saver, the window with message
about key combination at startup and says Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete keys to log
on. I thought about it as a program, but I don't think it's an extra program.
After I press these keys, the log on settings with no Welcome Screen and no
Fast Switching Users apeear. I have turned these features off, and was so
impressed about Windows security. Then, the next big amazement was that I
couldn't use right-click of the mouse. Although I have seen this feature off
on desktop at my previous school's computer, but it was set by ZenWorks or
related program. And the school computer is certainly not have programs like
ZenWorks. I pitied myself not knowing this. The most amazing amazement is the
download privilege with Internet Explorer. When I click a file, the window
saying about options for the download. I decided to download the document for
my history class, but after I clicked "Save", an error message about "You
don't have enough privilege to download files. Consult with your
administrator" <- something like this. Of course, teachers have a "higher"
privileges and were able to download as they wish. I thought it was set by
Internet Options -> Security, but I have tested my computer's Internet
settings, but my setting completely won't download anything. Above all, my
school computer administrator won't explain my amazements to me because they
think I would somehow hack and "break" the security as soon as I learn how to
set them. The only reason I want to know is to secure MY computer, not to
ruin other computer. Two more amazements. Another amazement was automatic
locking system. About 10 mintues later, the computer was locked and about
next 10 minutes "laterer", it switched to Screen Saver mode. I was very numb
after I have decided to test my computer and waited about 30 minutes and
never saw anything about "this computer has been locked." I certainly have no
idea how the school computers could lock themselves. Of course, it would be
great if Microsoft explains me how to set the exact waiting time until the
computer locks itself. My last amazement is auto log off. It says "No emails,
no games, no music, etc." but I have decided to ignore it anyway and logged
on the Yahoo! mail. After I logged on, less than a minute, the computer
logged off without notice. I starred numbly at the monitor again. The same
thing happended when I tried to change Taskbar and Start Menu Properties,
because I thought I would see Control Panel if I change to XP-style start
menu. I scrolled the bar and it logged off. How can this happen? I would
certainly not want any replies such as "it was monitored by a program that we
don't know quite clearly." Of course and course and course, I would
definitely want to know how to set them on my computer.
Thank you very much for reading my questions about Windows, and I hope
Microsoft to reply as soon as possible. Have a good day to Windows.
