I am absolutly joining with you. I think your explorer.exe is corrupted / replaced by some other funny programs or/ viruses. Please do the following steps
1. Go to Folder options in My computer.
2. Click View TAB
3. Unchech the option Hide windows protected files.
4. Goto %Systemroot%/Windows/System32/DLLCACHE
5. Copy the file explorer.exe and paste in %Systemroot%\Windows
6. Overwrite the file explorer.exe
Do the steps carefully and restore the system settings manually
Cheers

Try the Microsoft Help Centre before even attempting to mess with explorer.exe!
Are you sure it isn't on autohide.

Do I have this right?
-WinFX (Vista) replaces Win32
-WPF (Vista) replaces the GDI
-Forms (Vista) replaces MFC
Thanks in advance!

hey, i don't know for the other, but AFAIK, Widows Forms is a .NET feature, so how could it replace MFC ?
|
|
|
|
|
Because you can use MFC in .NET. But it seems to me that any new development in the .NET framework would use Forms instead. Does that make sense?

No. Vista is, at the very least, a set of extensions to Win32.
robasmith wrote: -WPF (Vista) replaces the GDI
Hardly. WPF is set of API's that supports a richer user experience. GDI and GDI+ aren't being replaced by WPF. Not yet anyway.
robasmith wrote: -Forms (Vista) replaces MFC
Nope. Windows Forms is to the .NET Framework what MFC is to writing Windows applications in Visual C++. A set of standard classes and interfaces to ease the creation of a consistent user experience from application to application.

Hmmmm... Maybe "replace" was the wrong word.
Vista is the OS. Win32 is the API for creating app's that run on the OS. How can Vista be an extension of Win32?
From Wikipedia:
"WinFX is the name of a new set of managed API's that Microsoft will introduce in its upcoming operating system, Windows Vista to supersede the current Windows API. The Windows API will still be present in Vista, but it will not give direct access to all the new functionality introduced with the new Application Programming Interface. In addition, WinFX is intended to give programmers easier access to the functionality present in the Windows API."
So WinFX may not be replacing Win32, but it certainly provides access to the core Vista OS were Win32 has no such access. Is that correct?
I'm not saying the GDI is going away. I am saying that a subset of the WPF (2D and 3D graphics, vector and raster graphics) utilizes DirectX. So any new development in the .NET framework would use the WPF instead of the GDI. Is that correct?
Again, I'm not saying MFC is going away. But any new GUI/front end development in the .NET framework would use Forms instead of MFC. Is that correct?
Thanks again...

I would have thought that was obvious.

If you wanted to use the "new stuff" in your app then, yes, you would use the new API's exposed through whatever forms package you choose that implements that technology. Obviously, MFC isn't going to give you access to WPF. But not all apps are going to justify using the new stuff either.

MS's original marketing was "WinFX will be The New API, everything will be managed from now on". They have backed away from that plan (just like they scaled back their plans for WinFS)

What is PEN-Disk?
Dos only support Hard Disk with a FAT16, FAT 32(Win95 OSR) and Floppy Disk with drive A and B. B is optimal for another floppy. In older computers, were 2 "floppy disk drive". One was 1.44MB and other was 1.2MB.

Try to run the commnd SFC /SCANNOW in the command prompt. You should prepare CD windows because it will require to replace any file that is corrupt too.

Hi,
I have one problem to ask. When I type http://google.com in outlook it appears as link, but when I type only google.com it does not appear as link. I want to know what determines this? I have a requirement to make a shortcut link for opening some file in my image editor. I want to make link like this clicking on which the file opens in my image editor. Link will look something like MyImageEditor://PathOfFile. Any clue? I guess it can be done by thinking in direction “how does a file say .doc file is associated with MS Word”.
Regards,
Rajeev

I have been a windows developer for a long time, however, I now need to look at Linux development...
Are there any resources (web or paper) you would recommend, for someone who has never even used a Linux system, to learn how the OS holds together, and how to start writing software to run on a Linux system...
Thanks.

Cool, thanks...
Looks like just the kind of thing I'm looking for.
