For over a year now the windows 7 search feature in file explorer fails (most of the time). Periodically it will work, but most of the time I can't rely on it. It is affecting my job and as an engineer with tens of thousands of files to search on regular basis I am pulling my hair out. Please...

I've had some peculiar problems with Google Chrome lately, difficulties in opening pages etc. - all the usual trouble one may have. Today my system smashed the screen by offering a Java update... I accepted it, because it's always been safe, the update never happened though, instead I got all...

Hello. I'm new here, I hope is okay to post on this folder. Anyway, I've used Photoshop CS (8) for years now and always with Win XP. About a month ago I formatted my HD and installed Windows 7. Then I installed a few programs that I usually use, including Photoshop CS. Now, my problem is this...

Hi guys, First of all, I'm new. The reason why I've joined this forum is simply: I have got some real issues with my Windows 7 pc. Since the purchase of my MOTU external soundcard, the MOTU UltraLite mk3 hybrid USB/Firewire. My PC keeps crashing all the time. But the last week, it even crashed...

This has been bugging me for quite a while now. Since the developer preview, I have been noticing "Windows 7 File Recovery" to be sitting in the control panel. At first, I thought it's just there because it's in the testing phase. But now, it's still there in the RTM build (Build 9200). What...
