Enabling "Startup Apps" option in the "Change Action Center settings" window

Hi
I have Windows 8.1 Update Enterprise
64-bit.
I noticed that, in the "Change
Action Center settings" window, the
"Startup Apps" item is disabled.
How come? How do I enable it?
What is the purpose of this option?
Thanks
Bye

As per my understanding startup items are the programs/apps, shortcuts, folders, drivers, scripts etc that are set to run automatically at startup when a user signs in to Windows. Disabling this might cause system issues, so its probably enabled
and greyed out by default.

Sorry, that's not a very helpful or accurate answer. All the Action Center does is NOTIFY users. It doesn't disable anything. The startup items are still set to run automatically and can still be enabled or disabled through the Task Manager. And the question,
"how can I enable it" was not answered.

  • Enabling "Windows activation" option in the "Change Action Center settings" window

    Hi
    I activated Windows 8.1 Update Enterprise 64-bit.
    I noticed, however, that, in the "Change Action Center settings" window, the "Windows Activation" option is disabled and picked. How come? How do I enable and unpick it?
    Thanks

    1. What is output of command
    slmgr /dlv
    2. Contact local administrator for help (Enterprise is multilicense and some help is prepaid. If local admin has no solution, he or she can escalate problem.) You have not given more information on infrastructure configuration (KMS ?).

  • Disabling special alerts in the "Change Action Center settings" window

    Hi
    In Windows 8.1 Update, I noticed that, in the "Change Action Center settings" window in the "Control Panel", the "Microsoft Account", "Windows Activate", "Windows Backup" and "Apps launcher" alerts
    can not be disable even with a local account of Administrators type. How come? What is the meaning of these alerts? How do I disable them?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Please know that these options inform you of any issues with them if you have gotten them setup. If you haven't set up them, the option appeared to be grey.
    Once they are grey, no such alerts will display about them.

  • Need detailed instructions on how to enable " Check for Updates" option on the Firefox installation directory for Windows XP.

    I have Firefox 2.0 (running Windows XP) and want to update it to 3.6, but the "Check for updates" option on the Help menu is grayed out and need to enable this option by changing permissions on the Firefox installation directory. I need detailed instructions on how to access the Firefox installation directory and change the permissions.
    Can someone please assist?
    Thank you.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox#Mac_OS_X
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean reinstall.
    Install the new version that you have downloaded.
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • Why do i not see premier pro as an app option after the cloud is installed?

    the cloud was installed and premiere does not show up as an video app option  for install. Why?

    Usually, if an pplication is not display/listed it is because the machine involved is not compatible with it.  Check the Premiere tech specs and see if the machine comes up short.

  • Changed my email address and cannot do apps updates because the changed email doesn't show on the IPad

    I changed my email address and, therefore, had to apply the change to my Apple ID.  However, when I try to do apps updates on my IPad, the verification window that pops up still shows my old email address and doesn't accept any of the passwords I try to enter...

    Apps are always tied to the Apple ID that you used to buy them with. You will have to use the old ID in order to update those apps. Just use the old ID and enter the password for that ID when you want to update those apps.

  • I don't have the option to disable caller id on my iPhone. It is not listed as an option under the "phone" toggle under "settings".

    It seems that others with the iPhone have many more options under the "phone" toggle. The only fields that I have are: My Number, TTY, Change Voicemail Password and International Assist. I believe that I should be able to "disable caller id". Am I correct? How do I get it? Last night, I downloaded the latest software.

    This happens when you PC disconnects from the sync server. If you go to Tools > Options and then the Sync tab in Firefox 4 and it's not showing your email address with options to manage your sync account, then you've been logged out.
    From that window you need to press Connect and use the option "I don't have the device with me" which will allow you to reconnect to the sync server using your email address and sync key you first got when you created the account.
    Once you've logged back in, the option to enter the phone's pass code will appear.

  • Can't change Game Center settings on a french iOS (maybe other languages)

    I just spent a fair amount of time with the support concerning a serious bug in Game Center on a French system, I think it is worth sharing.
    Summary:
    On a french system, one cannot edit game center settings (country, emails, and more importantly, confidentiality — If your profile is public, you can't switch it to private)
    Steps to Reproduce:
    Setup iOS in french
    Go to Game Center
    touch the mail address (it has to be already configured)
    choose to view account
    Try using one of the following actions
    change email address
    confidentiality
    country
    Additional note : there is no Save button on the upper right corner
    Expected Results:
    A view controller should be pushed in the current navigation controller
    Actual Results:
    The view is simply scrolled to top
    Regression:
    I think this bug is present since first releases of Game Center
    Workaround :
    A solution to perform changes is to switch the system to english and when done, switch it back to french.

  • How do you enable in-app purchases for the iPod Touch?

    I have apps like Puzzle Quest and Arena 9 on my iPod that have content I can buy from within the app, but whenever I try to purchase the said content, my iPod keeps saying "In-app purchases are currently disabled". I tried to find it in setting or on iTunes but I can't find a way to enable them.
    Assistance please? Thanks.
    Notes:
    I have enough money on my account to purchase the content.
    If ever I should have to deauthorize and reauthorize my iPod to fix this, doesn't that mean all my app data will be deleted? (e.g. game progress, files saved on my apps, etc)

    First, what version of iOS do you have on your iPod touch? You need iOS 3 or iOS 4 for in-app purchases to be available.
    If you have an appropriate version of iOS, go to Settings -> General -> Restrictions. If you can't get it, Restrictions are enabled and In-App Purchases may be set to "Off". You'll need the passcode set by whoever turned on the Restrictions to verify and if necessary change the setting.
    Regards.

  • HT4484 I have changed my apple I'd but am having a problem with iCloud and the App Store accepting the changed I'd what do I do?

    I changed my apple I'd  but the App Store and iCloud are still using my old ID. What do I do to get them to use my new Id?

    An iCloud acount is tied to the Apple ID, if you have created a new Apple ID then you will need to create a new iCloud account.
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    https://www.apple.com/support/icloud/account/
    All content that you bought using the old Apple ID is forever tied to that ID can only be redownloaded, updated and access using that Apple ID. Apple does not transfer content from one ID to another and Apple does not merge Apple IDs.

  • Where is the Remote App option (to pair devices) in iTunes on Windows 8?

    I know it used to be in the sidebar, and view options. Now with the sidebar removed, and it being gone from my options list, I'm at a loss of where to look. I just need to find the options page where you input the code to pair my App with my Computer.

    When you click Add an iTunes Library in the Remote app on your device iTunes should detect the device like this:
    Click the entry with the remote app icon and type in the paring code on the screen that appears.

    I had this problem as well. I was under the gun on time and just purchased it anyway. After installation I contacted support and they refunded me the amount.
    You should have a backup of your servers regardless of circumstances. You would then be able to restore the server software.
    When Apple repair machines they will often just swap it or swap the hard disk and will not make any effort to transfer your files. They assume you are doing a backup. Anybody running servers absolutely has a responsibility to ensure they have aduequate backups even more than 'normal' users. While Time Machine may not be wholely suitable for backing up servers Time Machine is so simple even normal users can use it and therefore no longer have any excuse for not doing backups.

  • HT201272 Download apps/games to the Dell Venue 8 Pro (Windows based tablet)

    My daughters each received a Dell Venue 8 Pro (windows based) tablet for Christmas. I was told that the iTunes apps and games can be transferred to this tablet. I am having trouble doing this. I can pull up the iTunes accounts with all the apps online, but not play or use them on the tablet itself. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    That's normal. You can use your Windows tablets with Windows 8.1 to store your device data with iTunes, but you cannot use iPhone and iPad apps. They are designed to run only in iPhones, iPads and iPods touch with iOS, not in computers
