How can I restore the traditional Open File view?

Hi,
When I choose the option to open a file from within an application when using Win8.1 I am presented with a list of common places which are placed before the drives. I rarely use these pre-defined locations for storing data and would like to be
able to have the computer drives listed first. Can this be done?
I'd like to see my C, D, E and F drives listed first. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

as far as I know, you cannot change the order.
You can however select details view and fold the 'folders'. That is if the application uses Windows 8 controls. From your screenshot, that appears not to be the case.
You can remove the 'folders' from registry. This will make sure these are not displayed in explorer or any file dialogue.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\wow6432node\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace

  • How can I restore the previously bought apps after I have formatted my computer without backing up any of my files for iTunes?

    As titled.
    I bought many apps from iTunes at the end of last year, and then my computer had got problem that I had to format and reinstall everything.
    I just want to know how can I restore the previously bought apps once if I forgot to backup any of my files on the computer??
    Would be really grateful if someone can show me how to. Thanks!!
    FYI: At that time I was using iPad 1 and the OS was still 3.1.x. Now I am using iPhone 4 and would like to restore the apps at least those that are compatible to my phone.

  • A gap between letters started to show in my indesgn files. tried to undo with tracking, the paragraph settings. nothing helped. it ruins the fluent view of the document. how can i restore the program so that doesn't happen?

    a gap between letters started to show in my indesign files. tried to undo with tracking, then with the paragraph settings. nothing helped. it ruins the fluent view of the document. how can i restore the program so that doesn't happen?
    for example: say i write a paragraph. then, in a weird some sort of way an involuntary gap suddenly appears between different letters of random words(i did not recognize any pattern to the gap appearing) throughout the entire paragraph. once i've double clicked on that paragraph, and made a minor change, lets say tapped a 'space' key, and then clicked ctrl+z to undo, it has aligned(or fixed) the entire paragraph and made it look ok again. i've tried numerous ways to undo the entire thing, but cannot find the reason. i've been working for a few years and there's no reason why this thing all of a sudden should happen right now.
    if anyone has stumbled on something like that and can advise, i would welcome it.

    yep...i'm typing with hebrew. i'll make a printscreen with the settings you've asked for@:
    if you look closely you'll see that almost every line has a single letter apart. in hebrew there is no usually a singe letter structured words.

  • Clicking on Microsoft Update opened Firefox, but couldn't run from Firefox; when I closed Firefox I lost all my tabs and couldn't restore anything but the Microsoft page; how can I restore the tabs from an earlier session?

    Hi Diovizor,
    Make sure that you do not use [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History Clear Recent History] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox.
    Also please make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode.
    You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Preferences > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Preferences > Privacy > History: Firefox will: Use custome settings for history. Uncheck "Always use permanent Private Browsing mode"
    Hope that helps!

  • Is iTunes 11.1.5 compatible with Mac OSX 10.6.8? If not how can I restore the previous iTunes version?

    Problem: Recently when I open iTunes it doesn't work; the little pinwheel just keeps spinning.
    I have tried leaving it on, as suggested by another user, for over 12 hours. I didn't work.
    I think the new iTunes version, 11.1.5, is not compatible with the operating system; Mac OSX 10.6.8. If this is so, how can I restore the previous iTunes version?

    You need to be updated to iTunes 11.2.2.
    You might want to consider running the combo updater over your install to refresh your files.
    Combo updater: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update v.1.1 - 1.09 GB
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    After running the combo updater, select Software Updater and update iTunes.
    If iTunes fails to open after updating, hold down the Option key when launching iTunes. It will ask you to locate your iTunes Library.
    Note: I've seen users with their iTunes Library on an external drive spin like this when the drive was failed to be seen in Disk Utility. Run Repair Drive on the external drive to fix this issue.

  • HT204150 i have deleted all contacts in icloud but still have them on my iphone (which is backed up as well to iTunes) how can i restore the iphone data to the iCloud so it will resend it to my mac book and iPad?

    i have deleted all contacts in icloud but still have them on my iphone (which is backed up as well to iTunes) how can i restore the iphone data to the iCloud so it will resend it to my mac book and iPad? I have switched my iphone to airplane mode so it is not connected to the internet and so icloud can not wipe it at the moment.
    thanks roy

    There's a menu choice (I think under "Files") that lets you sync purchased items on a device back to itunes.  Look for that.
    iCloud does not store music.  If you want to do that you'd have to subscribe to itunes Match, but to get music to the match servers, you need the music in the itunes library on your computer.

  • How can I read the printer snapshot file printers.xml

    How can I read the printer snapshot file printers.xml

    XML files are typically viewed using a web browser.
    Open the XML file and the default program should open it automatically.  If you are prompted to select a program, use the option that lets you choose a program and brows through the directories for your browser (for example, use Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.).
    If need be, you should be able to right-click the file and select open with to choose the program to open it with.
    There are other XML viewers out ther, but web browsers are typically the default as XML is a web language.

  • How can I restore the "Sync Now" button on iPhone 5?

    How can I restore the "Sync Now" button on iPhone 5? (using iTunes 11.0.2) All software up to date and sync works by WiFi or USB if initiated from iMac. Bento syncs fine from iPhone 5.  The "Sync Now" button just doesn't appear anymore.  All I see is the message to connect by cable and click "Sync this phone over Wi-Fi". I have tried that and turned things off and restarted and re everythinged - no button. Syncs fine on WiFi if the computer initiates it.  Wife's phone bought same day - no problem.

    From iTunes' help:
    Turn on Wi-Fi syncing
    Connect your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad to your computer and select your device.
    Click Summary.
    Select “Sync with this device over Wi-Fi.”
    Disconnect your device from your computer.
    Your device still appears in the Devices pop-up menu in iTunes unless you click the Eject button .
    If you click Eject, your device is removed from the Devices pop-up menu, but Wi-Fi syncing remains turned on. Your device reappears in the Devices pop-up menu the next time you open iTunes.
