Save as hangs in windows 8.1

save as hangs in windows 8.1

Hi,
Any update here?
Could you please have a share when using what application to save files, it hangs?
Did we configure any network drive? We may temporary remove the mapped network drive and then check if the save as would work.
For Windows 8 hangs/ freezes, please see if the following support KB could help here:
Windows 8.1, Windows 8 or Windows 7 hangs or freezes

Windows 7 "Save As" hangs in the common dialogue box

All attempts to Save As hang when the common dialogue box comes up.
This hanging occurs with all the Office 2013 programs, custom applications, the lot.
It hangs before I get a chance to key in anything.
All Windows Updates done, Registry Booster says the registry is error free, Microsoft Security Essentials detects nothing, etc, etc.
I have tried several of the suggestions available from the Internet, none of them fix the issue.
From this Forum I see that this has been a problem in the past.
How can I pin down what is actually going wrong please!

Hi,
This issue can be caused by network locations or printer configuration in your Office.
Please test the steps in following articles:

If the issue still persists, please help to collect the event log and app crash dump file and upload here for further research.
First enable app crash dump collection by copying following words into notepad, saving it as dump.reg and importing it:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\localdumps\EXCEL.EXE]
"DumpFolder"=hex(2):63,00,3a,00,5c,00,63,00,72,00,61,00,73,00,68,00,64,00,75,\
00,6d,00,70,00,73,00,00,00
"DumpCount"=dword:00000010
"DumpType"=dword:00000001
"CustomDumpFlags"=dword:00000000
Then, open Excel to repro the issue. If crash issue appeared, please find the crashdump file under c:\.
Please upload this file into Skydrive and shared the link here.
Also, you can try to analyze dump by yourself if you would like to：

Save As & Open Dialog Window for some documents hangs when custom VSTO plugin is installed

Hello,
I have created a VSTO application which uploads a word document to Document Management Server. The problem is not with this plugin, but after the plugin is installed, for certain documents when user makes some modification to the document and clicks on File
-> Save As or File ->Open, the Save As/Open Dialog window, does not show up and the Word application will be hung (spinning) as it should do if the Save As dialog window would have been shown. The only option is then to kill the WinWord process
from Task Manager. When I kill the WinWord process from task manager, I see the Save As Dialog window appear for a split second before the WinWord Process shuts down.
If I uninstall the VSTO application, everything works fine.
Details on the application:
Target Framework: .NET Framework 4
Platform Target: x86
OS (Developer and End User): Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 64 bit
Microsoft Office: Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 Version: 14.0.6129.5000 (32-bit)
Help!!

Hi Eugene,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes I have tried an empty add-in project as well. Added a label to the ribbon and displayed a static text. I am able to reproduce the issue with this add-in as well. The issue is only reproducable if I deploy the add-in using a setup and deployment project.
While building the project, Visual Studio installs the add-in by default. If I open the problematic documents with the "developement" version of the add-in installed, it seems to be working fine.

Yogesh

Since it could be reproduced if you deploy any add-in with a setup project, it seems this issue may be related to the your environment.
It will be helpful if you could share the following information with us.
The configuration about that setup project and your add-in.
Whether your user account has admin privilege or not.
To narrow down this issue, you could consider installing that add-in with setup project in a clean machine.
If it could reproduce this issue, then we could focus on that setup project instead.
If not, then we'd better focus on your environment to narrow down this issue.

Unexpected Quits in multiple applications at Save or Import/Export window

Hello,
For several months I have Apple and Adobe applications as well as Firefox, randomly quit when bringing up the Save, or Import/Export window. (I have copies of the error logs.)
I thought I had it fixed since I haven't had any issues for some time after running Disk Utility and Onyx. But, I posted the same issue a couple of months ago and the solution (at the time) was to keep the desktop clean (see "Crashing at Save" by katorama) . So, after I cleaned up my desktop and only had two aliases to my folders I needed, all went very well until now.
However, what didn't help is that yesterday we had three power outages and my iMac did an auto-restart after each. Since then, the problem returned and nothing seems to fix it.
I feel like this issue is haunting me! I was a tech for many years and normally can fix the issue. But, I can't seem to figure out the reason behind these crazy unexpected quits. Seems I've run out of tools in my toolbag.
TROUBLESHOOTING ATTEMPTS:
– I have run Disk Utility to verify and repair disk and Onyx to clean out caches. After this, it seems to run fine, then a different application will have the same problem.
– When I create a new user account, there is no response when I double click the hard drive (it does not open) and when testing an application for the quit issue, it happens again.
– Also, when I restart into Safe Boot the problem appears to stop initially, but can appear intermittently again.
I suspect it may be a RAM or even a Quartz issue? But, honestly, I have no idea.
< h   e   l   p   ! >
Any suggestions welcome!
thanks!

Hi.
This is about a question you posted to the Firefox Support forum three months ago (I'm sorry you never got an answer).
Did you ever fix the problem where Firefox freezes or hangs, when clicking a download link or using (File menu) "save as" or "open file"? Or when going to the Firefox (Tools) menu and clicking Options ? Or trying to Import or Export bookmarks?
I found this thread searching for a solution for someone on MozillaZine's support forum who's having a similar issue. See this thread: (maybe something he's tried that didn't work for him will work for you?)

ITunes 10.6 hangs on Windows 7

iTunes 10.6 hangs on Windows 7 on iTunes startup. My current page is the iTunes Store, and I see iTunes start up, and the progress bar on the top line shows "Accessing iTunes Store..." with the stripy progress bar moving for about 10 seconds. Then it stops moving and the whole application hangs, with the Windows 7 spinner telling me to wait. No Windows controls work (I can't close the window or stop the application). At this point, I have to either reboot or use Task Manager to kill iTunes. No amount of waiting works, and uninstall / reinstall iTunes does not resolve the issue.

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Windows 7 install hangs at "Windows is loading files ..." on MBA

I have been trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate but each time the install hangs at "Windows is loading files ..." on reboot. I am using a Windows install DVD using an external drive. When the install hangs, the DVD is not being accessed. I have tried several times and it leads to the same result. I have tried different partition sizes (20 GB - 50 GB), no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Solution
I have a macmini bought in mid2011 with OS Lion on it. AS it doesnot come with an optical drive, I bought an LG DVD drive and used the windows 7 (64bit) installation DVD. It stopped at windows is loading files....
I tired couple of other options like using flash dirve but it dint work.
The I went to Apple's Genius Bar, and they put the installation dvd into their dvd drive (by Apple). Then the windows installed perfectly fine.
When asked they said it must be the problem of DVD and I found out that it actually is the cause. Apple products require dual layer optical drives but in general the optical drives we buy can only read single layer dvds. So I got to fix the problem by borrowing their dvd drive in genius bar and now i m good to go.....
Hope this helps

Change default format in "save as" file format window

I month ago I asked the following question...
"How do I change the file format order that is listed in the "save as" file format window? Instead of having "Photoshop" listed as the default file, I'd like to have JPEG at the top, then TIFF, PSD, etc. I have to constantly scroll down the list to find JPEG."
Recently while selecting JPEG in the "save as" format window, I accidently selected "Large Document Format" while holding down either "control", "option", "apple key", or "shift", or a combination of keys. Now the default format in the format window is "Large Document Format" (ext.PSB). I've changed the default from "Photoshop" which is still listed at the top, to "Large Document Format". I'd like to change the default to "JPEG" but I cannot replicate the correct key(s) to change the default format in the window.

Hello TomGroup...
I did not receive a satisfactory answer to the question. Yes, you can go
into the Scripts but that is for experts and it is too much work.

Any updates on this issue?
I have a similar situation in that no matter what I'm working on, when I
click "Save As' then the default format option is always .tiff If I save
as jpg and then go onto my next file, the default is still tiff again when I
try to save No matter what I try, tiff is also my default selection. It's
just one of those things that takes a mere 5 seconds to click the dropdown
and select .jpg, but 5 seconds times a couple hundred files per day...it
adds up.

You cannot disable UEFI if your Windows 7 was installed with UEFI. The System Reserved partition is different for UEFI than for legacy BIOS and your Windows 7 system will not boot in the legacy BIOS mode.
Booting from DVD should not give you the Windows logo because it should boot into the DVD setup mode.

GetUserEvent hangs on Windows 7

Hi,
All of our applications are written in C++ using Visual Studio with LabWindows providing the UIR and API calls to interact with the GUIs. The apps are multithreaded with each GUI being on a separate thread for increased fidelity. We use GetUserEvent() with the appropriate panel id to retrieve events for each panel within its thread and then process the events returned, again, in the same thread.
This has worked very well for us until we tried to run our applications on Windows 7. The first thread (and hence the first panel) works just fine. However when a second panel is displayed the application hangs. I've traced this to the second GetUserEvent() call, in the second thread, not returning and so the first one hangs as well.
We are using Visual Studio 2010 and LabWindows 2009. The applications can be built on either an XP or Windows 7 box but will run ONLY on XP. No matter how they're built they always hang on Windows 7. I've also gone backwards to Visual Studio 2005 and LabWindows 8.5 with the same result.
Has anyone seen this issue on Windows 7? I'm assuming that it's a Windows 7 issue since XP is fine and it also hangs in XP mode on Windows 7.
Thanks,
Matt

Hi Matt,
Could you create a small version of the code that recreates the issue and post it? This way we can try to reproduce the issue and see what could be causing the problem.

Can anyone help me to get rid of a "hanging" site/window that I inadvertently clicked and that I now can't escape?

When I try either to close this "hanging" site/window or to return to the previous page/site, a second, pop-up window appears and asks whether I'm sure that I "want to navigate away from this page"; however, no yes-or-no option/buttons are visible (maybe they're at the ottom of the pop-up, but the pop-up's bottom margin extends below the bottom of mny screen, and I can't scroll down to it). Also, the hanging window has a "jump" tab (and that word also has been inserted in front of the "Mozilla Firefox (Private Browsing)" banner at the top of my screen. Last, toward the upper right of the window is a lozenge/button reading Install Missing Plugins" (an injunction that I ignored).

Mine does the same thing occasionally, is your phone jailbroken? Sometimes it will work if you delete the book and reinstall it or put your phone into airplane mode then turn it back off.

Iphone hangs up windows xp

When I try to connect Iphone to the coputer it hangs up windows XP Pro. I am running Itune7.5.0.20. I activated the Iphone successfully. But now when I try to connect it to the computer inorder to Sync Calendar and Phone directory it hangs up the Windows. One of the Apple Sales Rep mentioned that he had the same problem and had to uninstall the Norten security program. I had to reset the Iphone before I could connect again. I will appreciate any hints to resolve this issue and reports of similar experience. [email protected]

This Windows OS issue doesn't really seem like its related to the iPhone or iTunes. You can find some general tips here, but you may want to check the Microsoft support site or contact the PC manufacturer.
Try restarting the PC after removing any CDs or floppy disks from it.

Why does Mountain Lion not save 'Save', 'Save As' and 'Export' window sizes?

Every time I go to Export or Save a document, the window size resets and I have to constantly re-size it every time. It's quite annoying. Is there a way to change these default windows sizes permanently?

Just a guess. Maybe it is not required that the FP be opened but just loaded in memory before the save. In 6.1, find a property/method that requires the FP into memory (such as Edit Mode on Open) and use it before saving the VI.

How to save the credentials in windows security when opening a report?
in Silverlight program, user click a link to SQL server report services link, it pops up a new IE window and ask for windows security.
Type the user name password in and check save password. reports showed and close IE. user click again, the same windows security popup dialog showed up. how to really remember the credentials?
If keep the IE open, reports shows in second tab of the same IE window for the second click, and it didn't ask for the windows security.

Hi Lascorpion,
According to your description, users need to type username and password before they can open the SSRS report when reopening IE, right? If I have anything misunderstood, please point it out.
Base on my research, this issue offten occurs on IE9 which ships with Windows 7 operating systems. In this case, to avoid this issue we can add the report URL to the trust site, for the detail information, please refer to the link below.
