After renaming the desktop shotcuts have all turned white (icon picture missing)

Hi,
I'm trying the new windows and I just renamed some of the desktop shortcuts - removing from them the awful suffix "shortcut" and after restart they all turned white and the picture disappeared. The icons have been deleted also from the aplication's
.exe file and can't be reloaded.
Thanks
Win10 user

1. Go back to that registry hack program you were using to remove the arrows, UN-DO it.
2. If that failed to restore the desktop shortcuts, use the following tutorial. It is written for Win 8 /8.1. It is applicable to Win 10 TP.
http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/8486-default-file-associations-restore-windows-8-a.html
At the File Type or Protocol table, scroll down to .exe  
> click it and save it to the desktop.
Follow the steps listed at the top of the tutorial from #1 to 7.
Scroll down to .lnk    and repeat
the steps #1 to 7.
Reboot your computer.
Hopefully, that will restore your shortcuts' file type associations.
Good luck.

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Select the messages logged after the boot, during the time something abnormal was happening. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    For example, if the problem is a slow startup taking three minutes, post the messages timestamped within three minutes after the boot time, not before. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the beginning of the log extract.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's"  after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera'

    Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's"  after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera's DSC files?

    DNG files do not contain some metadata supplied by the camera, which can be used by the manufacturer's software. Thus, if you don't keep the original Raw photo, you will lose this information.
    If your 1000% sure you're never going to use the manufacturer's software, then this isn't a problem. But who can be sure what software you will be using 10 years from now?

  • I have my iTunes music folder stored on an external hard drive.  I recently purchased a new Mac.  After attaching the external hard drive, all the songs imported without any problem except my Playlists.  Any clue about where they are or how to revive them

    I have my iTunes music folder stored on an external hard drive.  I recently purchases a new Mac.  After attaching the external hard drive, all songs imported without a problem except my playlists.  Any clue about where they are or how to revive them for use on my new Mac?
    Thanks!

    To retain your playlists, artwork, play counts, etc, you need to move the entire iTunes folder, not just the music files..
    Correct.
    After that just select the new folder location in iTunes> Advanced settings.
    Incorrect.
    Hold Option and launch iTunes.
    Select Choose library and select the iTunes folder.
    This will read the iTunes library.itl file in this folder and the library as it was previously will be opened.

    Does every backup require lots of indexing?  If so, the index may be damaged.
    Try Repairing the backups, per #A5 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
    If that doesn't help, see the pink box in #D2 of the same link.

    I think it is somehow related to your other question - pure renaming (that is. changing the text of the field's label) should not have an effect what-so-ever, but you probably somehow changed something in a required parameter, so that it is empty now.

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • After adding a 3rd light they all turn off

    I'm building a project where I need several small moving lights on a picture of an audio mixing board. I've done this effect before in After Effects where I just created several point lights, placed them close to the picture layer then animated the motion I needed on all of them. The effect was great. I'm trying to do the same thing in Motion, and it works great until I add the 3rd point light. One or two lights it works great. But when i turn on the 3rd light they all turn off and the lighting goes to it's default lighting. Is this a setting somewhere where there is a max number of lights allowed? Is the program not able to handle the number of lights? Or is my system not strong enough? Somebody please help.
    Dual G5 Power PC   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   Final Cut Studio 2

    Strangely enough, when I had this problem, both with an x1900 and a 7300GT, I loaded the Motion project into QuickTime Player and was able to export from there...

  • Traffic not showing in Notifications IOS 7. I have all turned on in notifications and location services allowed in Maps. I have been all over internet, followed set up instructions, even re-set settings (fixed weather not showing) but still no traffic?

    Traffic not showing in Notifications IOS 7. I have all turned on in notifications and location services allowed in Maps. I have been all over internet, followed set up instructions, even re-set settings (fixed weather not showing) but still no traffic?

    I should clarify: I didn't know it fell out, but I check my phone often enough that there were only about 10 minutes between when I last put it in my pocket and then realized it wasn't there.
    We asked everyone around us if they saw it, and like 10 people were helping us look. But my husband used Find My iPhone and the Prey app right away when we realized it was missing (again, at most 15 minutes from the last time I used it) and it was already in offline / "cannot locate" mode.

  • How to rename the desktop?

    Hello all.  I just went into Time Machine to retrieve a large file that was in my desktop, and I chose to bring the entire desktop onto my computer.  So basically, I moved the file into my actual desktop, and I deleted the one that I just copied into my computer.  Now, my desktop is called Desktop (original), and it's driving me NUTS.  Can you guys

    Try restarting your Mac. While checking something related to your issue, I somehow managed to rename the Desktop (but can't repeat it so don't ask me how I managed to do that). On restart & login a new, empty Desktop folder was created, but the renamed one was also visible in the Finder. I could then drag its contents out onto the Desktop & trash the now empty renamed one.
    I hope that works for you too!

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

  • What is the difference between these two URLS after creating the desktop

    Hi
    I am accessing one portlet (Portlet is Remote portlet), after created the desktop,
    this URL is : http://localhost:7001/DemoPortalWeb/page/Demo/desktop/ServiceDelivery
    It successfully rendering to login portlet now, when i am trying to hit the valid URL
    http://localhost:7001/DemoPortalWeb/appmanager/Demo/desktop/servicedelivery
    it is giving the Error code 404
    only difference is that 'appmanager' is replaced with 'page', How to access my portlet with
    this URL http://localhost:7001/DemoPortalWeb/page/Demo/desktop/ServiceDelivery

    Hello,
    To change the "appmanager" portion of the URL, all you need to do is add another servlet-mapping to your (consumer) webapp's WEB-INF/web.xml file. For example, if you wanted "page" to work as a replacement for "appmanager", you could add this to web.xml:
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>AppManagerServlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/page/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping> Kevin

  • Exchange management console not able to access after rename the administrative AD account

    I had an administrative user account(AD Admin a/c) KXP004 that
    recently rename as RPS001
    The account which was working fine before renaming and was able to access the exchange console. Since I rename the account, everything is working fine except the exchange management
    console.
    When trying to access the EX Management console displays an error message saying it cannot find the new name. What can we do to make the exchange management
    console work for the renamed account? Please assist.

    Hi Sherieftkl,
    After renaming the administrator account in AD, did you log off and then log on by using the new administrator name? Please log on again and monitor the result.
    In addition, please also open Event Viewer and check if find some related events.
    -->Since I rename the account, everything is working fine except the exchange management console.
    By the way, if this issue just occurred for EMC, I also suggest that you should post the question in
    Exchange Forum. I believe we will get a better assistance there.

  • TS1567 I have tried manually removing itunes and reinstalling. i have gone through the sevices anf tried turning on the AMDS. i have tried turning off the firewall. i have tried restoring my device. i have tried "fixing" the AMDS in the add/remove program

    I have tried manually removing itunes and reinstalling. i have gone through the sevices anf tried turning on the AMDS. i have tried turning off the firewall. i have tried restoring my device. i have tried "fixing" the AMDS in the add/remove programs. I have tried using a different device. i have tried using a different cable. I have tried all of the steps given in the link supplied by Apple. None of these things have fixed my problem. I still have the Error Message "The Apple Mobile Device Service started then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs or Alerts service. I am using Windows XP. I am leaning towards a last resort which would be to wipe my hard drive and start from scratch. Does anyone have a solution?

    Let's start with iTunes.
    Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
    With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
    Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

    OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
    iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
    I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.
