On an Acer W3 w/win 8.1 there is no way to get out of full screen mode.

I have the latest version. You can't pull the top menu into view but if I try hard I can get the - to appear and this, with a great deal of effort will let me return to regular desktop mode. This is only a problem with this tablet. Need to have some easy way to return.

Hello,
Please see:

If you can bring up the keyboard with your tablet, you can hit F11 to get out of Fullscreen mode.

Win 8 and 8.1 - Acrobat X Pro - PDF Save (As) Full Screen Only

When saving a file Adobe Acrobat X Pro on my WIN 8 (8.1) computer the save (save as) pop-up window ONLY goes to full screen mode. I have CS5.5 installed on my computer and no other Adobe programs are affected. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat but yet the same problem exists. Does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks
Ken

Hi avo-ken,
Are you still facing this issue?
It is not a problem it is design behavior. Try double click on the upper bar of the Save As window and that should restore the Save As window.

Win Xp VM on OVS - Increase virtual desktop size to 1920x1080(full screen)

Hi,
I've installed Windows Xp virtual machine on Oracle Virtual Server host.
I use the XP VM by Microsoft Remote Desktop function from another windows desktop PC.
The Xp VM desktop size is max. 1600x1200/16bit.
I'd like to use the Xp VM by Ms RDP in full screen mode(1920x1080 resolution), but I can't.
Please help me, how should I setup the Oracle Virtual Server to get the 1920x1080 resolution in this situation.
Regards,
Battila

Hi,
this has nothing to do with OVS.
Resolution of Microsoft Remote Desktop is set in Windows directly, and does not depend on the underlying hardware of the server.

So you should be able to define that @ you client side.

X230 Win 8.1 Pro Fingerprint single swipe power on and login black screen

When i try to log on using the single swipe power on and login feature sometimes the screen will go to the login screen, the finger print scanner will flash, and then i get a black screen. I can see the mouse cursor, but nothing else. If I swipe my finger again, I will see the login screen again briefly, before it returns to a blank screen again. There is no way to get past this, aside from forcing the machine to power down (Hold down power key for 10 seconds).
Does anyone have a solution for this. Powering on the device and logging in with a single swipe is a really great feature, but I need it to not brick logging in.
Thanks for any help or advice.

I apologize I didn't already provide these answers initially.
Questions:1. Does this happen 100% of the time, or is it intermittent?
I have only noticed this intermittently.
2. Does it happen starting from full shutdown (press and hold SHIFT key while you shutdown the computer normally, then swipe to power on and log in).
I have only had this problem when resuming from a state of hibernation.
3. Does it happen starting from sleep (swipe to resume the system from sleep and log in)
I rarely sleep the system, but I recall it hanging once or twice when coming back from sleep as well.
4. Can you check "View all problem reports" screen in Action Center to see if any crash happens at the same time the problem occurs?
the only problem reports that corresponds with the times this has happened today refer to an problem with the Anti malware Service Executable with the summary being MpTelemetry.
5. Can you export registry at these locations:
a. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\Credential Provider Filters]
b. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\Credential Providers]
I have this, but unfortunately do not see how I can attach it this post.
Edit: Here is a link to download it directly. Once you respond I'll disable this.
Link removed
It should also be noted that I do not have a problem when single swipe is disabled. (So I need to swipe twice. One to power on, and the other to log in.)

Cannot get to dual-boot screen after Win 8.1 upgrade

Hello,
I have an iMac with Mavericks. Recently installed Win 8 to dual-boot. Instrux then were to hold OPT button during startup to be presented with options for OS with which to boot.
Since Win 8.1 upgrade there is no way to get to that prompt. MS/Win help topics not useful (unsurprisingly). I have the original install disk but would far prefer to save my current config of Mav. Thoughts for workaround?
Cheers,
Michael C

holding down option key at bootup not giving you the bootmenu have nothing to do with win8.1
even if one never installed anything in terms bootcamp at all then holding down the option key should give the option between osx and the restore to last clean osx version
if you don't get the option then I'd say the cause is not windows as the menu is handled by the bootloader which is before windows takes over

Just upgraded to V 10.0.1. Win 7. There is now a top line with an orange button, but it no longer contains the Common Features dropdown I was enjoying.

Before the upgrade I think I was running V 10.1 (Win 7). At the top left-hand corner had been a big orange FireFox logo-button; when clicked, it dropped down a handy menu: Print, print Preview, History, Downloads, etc. Now suddenly there is a whole new topline which has an orange logo which yields, Restore, Minimize, Close, etc. Not the same, and also, the new line contains a repetition of the name of the page just as in the line below the Menu. Seems both superfluous and a step backwards. Furthermore, My Bookmarks Toolbar is checked on the View>Toolbars menu--but that toolbar is not visible. (I just discovered by accident the Alt+i brings up a sidebar with a dropdown menu revealing the Bookmarks toolbar choice. This is to me the opposite of progress! Can I return to the previous interface?

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.

Acer Predator running win 8.1 which I wish to upgrade to win 10. What will happen to recovery discs?

I have a two year old Acer Predator with Win 8.1 installed. I wish to upgrade to Win 10 but I'm concerned about what will happen if I get a hard drive failure at some point. Will I need to pay for another set of recovery discs? Or will I have to install Win 8 from the discs I already have, then upgrade to 8.1, then to Win 10?

if your HDD will die, you can use your windows 8 recovery disk and then upgrade to 10 without passing by 8.1but.....i can suggest an easy way. You can create a system image just after upgrading to windows 10, having your drivers updated to windows 10 version too and check that your system is stable. after that, with windows tool you can create that system image on DVD or external HDD and use it to re-install your windows 10 copy as you just upgraded. http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-create-a-system-image-in-windows-10/ to use a windows system image, you need a bootable windows 10 installation media but this is easy to have it from microsoft:http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10download the .iso file and burn it on a DVD. so....at the end, you will boot from the DVD and choose to repair your PC and selecting to load the system image.

No driver for Photosmart C6380 for Win RT -- is there a workaround?

Is HP developing a Win RT driver for this All-in-One printer? I bought a Surface RT and I don't really understand how the operating system works, but I'd like to be able to automatically print documents I create on the tablet. I also have a new HP Win 8 desktop and an old Win XP desktop on my network which can both print to the C6380 and run compatible software, so if there's a way to save my documents from the tablet into the print queue on one of these computers that could (possibly?) work. I'd be happy to try any reputable third party solution that could make this functional, as well.
There must be some way to make this work, and I'd greatly appreciate it if somebody could help me figure out a workaround that I can use with my network until this printer is supported, if ever.
Thanks.

Hi there,
Let me preface this by saying I'm in no way a Windows RT expert. But, I do know it is a topic that support content is being created for within HP.
Here is a document that I hope will help:
Install the Printer Software in Windows RT or Windows 8 on a Tablet
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03606993&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=3560280&tmp...
Basically, this document explains that there is not a driver to download, but there is a driver already built into the Operating System.
And, here are a couple more documents you might find helpful for your product:

Full screen games crash at launch on Bootcamp Win XP with Apple Cinema Disp

Hello,
strange issue to me. Everything goes flawlessly on Win XP on Bootcamp on my 2010 MBP 13", and games launch full screen with no problem. But as soon as I use my external 20" Apple Cinema Display, they crash immediately after launch. I wouldn't know on Windows how to get console logs etcetera.
This is an issue with all games launched at full screen. No issue in applications.
How to fix this?

Anyone, please.
This now only happens with Unreal Engine games since I chose "use this screen only" on my Nvidia preferences. I think it has to do with the Win XP drivers for this Nvidia integrated chip (Geforce 320M), which aren't much updated in Win XP. I think I could fix it by updating to Windows 7 and using newer drivers which aren't available in XP. Hope so.

Firefox kills aero in Win 7 when playinf full screen flash videos.

I have recently installed nvidia 3d vision on my compoter. now when I click on a fullscreen button when watching flash videos like YT, the aero effect in Win 7 is disabled and does no return untill I turn FF off. FF4 and 3.6 has the same problem. Everything is OK in other browsers. I tried to disable the 3d vision plugins but it does not help.

Try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.

Acer aspire V7 win 8.1 update problem

One reason it could be staying at .75 is because it's getting too hot.

After updating windows 8.1, I think that the KB3000850 around 750MB causes problems,
SDD usage goes to 100% for a few minutes when Laptop boots up, there's no freeze or lag, just FAN keeps spining very fast for the time when SSD is at its fullest usage, then SSD usage goes back to 0% but vent keeps randomly spinning up very fast and not constant even there is nothing running ( IDLE ), and sometimes processor locks at min 0.75GHZ and not changing ( don't mention power plan, cos its not working ).
I reverted that update, and there is no SSD 100% usage and there is no strange vent spinning and there is no CPU lock.
Any suggestion how to configure system after WIN update to keep it working normal ?
UPDATE is messing things up....
Thanks in advance guys
