If ur folders are in My Documents, then right click on My Documents, click on Properties. Inside Properties, click on General, click on Advanced. Now u r in "Advanced Attributes" window. Under Advanced Attributes windows, uncheck the option "compress contents to save disk space". Select all subfolders & files, click on OK. That's it.

Your windows will occasionally compress files in your computer, files that had been compressed will show blu color fonts, the ones in black are still hvnt been compressed yet. Don't worry it won't do any harm.

check your file settings.....click on tools then folder options then file types....look down the list for the extension type (.jpg, .bmp, .gif) click on it and then advanced...see what it lists, there should be an entry for edit...you can select it to be the default or at least see what command its using to open edit......if you want the same behaviour for all pic files then you'll want to copy and paste the command into each pic type file you want it for.\nfor example the default command for editing a .bmp file is:\n"C:&#92;WINDOWS&#92;system32&#92;mspaint.exe" "%1"

Have you checked the preferences for Messenger. I use the Mac version, I dont know if yours has the same key presses to get to the preferences window.\nThe fact you can not see writing may suggest you have the font color set to the same as background. Change the colur to black or other dark color.

Are you using Internet Explorer?  If you are, you can to to the Tools>Internet Options.  This will bring up a box with multiple tabs. Look in the lower left corner, there will be a button with the text "Colors..." Click on it and make sure the checkbox next to "Use Windows colors" is checked. Hope this helps; if this doesn't, I'll need more info.

Assuming the file isn't corrupted, it's probably a permissions problem.  See if someone logged in with administrative rights to all the folders (with full access to everything) can get to it.  If they can, you'll have to fix the permissions issues.

Go through your entire home folder and remove ALL the plists that have *anything* to do with word or office for that matter. Make sure you also remove the 'microsoft user data' or something along those lines in your home documents folder as well.Works every time I need to fix that when I'm at work. Let me know how it goes!

That didn't work, try this...\n\nIn Windows Explorer, open up the Tools Menu, Folder Options, Hit the View Tab.  In the "Advanced Settings" box, scroll down until you see "Remember each folder's view settings" and make sure its checked. Hit Apply at the bottom, then "Apply to all folders" button at the top.\n\nBrowse to your folder and change it to how you like, then close explorer and run it again and see if it kept it this time.\n\nIf it did, make sure you reboot the PC so Windows will keep those settings.
