UE-V Windows 8 Start Screen

I'm trying to get the Windows 8 Start Screen settings into UE-V.
I'm running 1.0 SP1
I've edited the standard desktopsettings.xml file to include:
<File>
      <Root>
        <EnvironmentVariable>LOCALAPPDATA</EnvironmentVariable>
      </Root>
      <Path>Microsoft\Windows</Path>
      <FileMask>appsFolder.itemdata-m*</FileMask>
    </File>
    <File>
      <Root>
        <EnvironmentVariable>LOCALAPPDATA</EnvironmentVariable>
      </Root>
      <Path>Microsoft\Windows</Path>
      <FileMask>appsFolderLayout.bin</FileMask>
    </File>
I get this error message logged in the UE-V log:
An error occured while copying a file from the central storage location. 
Source: [\\DFSRoot\Data\UserData\test\UE-VSettings\SettingsPackages\SuperDesktopSettings\B12E06C1-9085-4C8B-8EBF-2D2941B89083.pkgdat] 
Error message: [The operation completed successfully.
Error code: [0]
Is there a way to make the user's start screen changes roam?
Making application settings roam is great but I'd like to make this roam - then I can be rid of roaming profiles

I don't believe the Start Screen is in scope yet in V1. Stay tuned.

  • Stuck on "Login window starting" screen

    one night i was putting a big file, about 2-4 gb, into iphoto from my old imac and i forgot to make sure that it stayed on my external hard drive and there wasnt enough room on my main drive because they were small hard drives except for my external. iphoto said there wasnt enough room so i selected all the pics i just transfered and tried to put them back in my external but still in iphoto and then the screen dimmed a little and this message came up saying i need to restart my computer so i just turned it off because i was tired and thought i could deal with this some other time. then a week or 2 later i turned it back on and it got all the way to were it said "login window starting" and stopped about 98 percent. and i waited for a few minutes and decided to just leave it there and clean my room then i watched a movie and when it was done i checked back and it didnt move. whats wrong with it.

    Hi Ian, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    OSX will mess up the HD if space gets too low, Free space isn't really ours to use anymore.
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    If that doesn't do it let us know.
    You need a minimum of 10 GB free space.

  • IMac purchased at garage sale help. Gets stuck at "Login Window Starting."

    Hi all,
    I recently purchased an iMac at a barn sale, and it turns on and everything, but then gets stuck at "Login Window starting" screen (http://i605.photobucket.com/albums/tt135/gpd2paul4/IMG_0251.jpg). When Goggling this problem, I see that I am not alone in thee problem, but I am alone in the fact that I don't even know what model it is (I think G3, but not sure), let alone have the original CDs or paperwork. I have tried holding 'shift' right after the startup chime to start up in safe mode, but it still gets stuck at "Login Window starting." I have attached a few pictures of the computer to help you veteran Mac users identify it, which might help you help me. Any help is appreciated. (Step-by-step instructions are best, I am good at using a Mac, but this is getting pretty technical.)

    You need to figure out the level of your firmware before installing 10.2 or greater. ( The PC name for firmware is BIOS. ) Installing 10.2 with a down level firmware will most likely make your iMac unusable and difficult to fix.
    What is firmware?
    The firmware software receives control when you poweron your machine. It does some hardware testing and some hardware configuration then passes control to your version of Mac OS. It reside on a PROM ( program read only memory ) chip on the logic board.
    Open Firmware, boot into Open Firmware.

    There is no need to partition. You can save hard drive space by doing a custom install. Leave out the print drivers you do not need and the languages you do not need. Doing so you will need about three gigabytes of space.
    You need to get into single use mode.
    This page will tell you how to get into single user mode.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1492
    Basically, you hold down the command-s key then powering on your machine. The command key has a little apple symbol on the lower left. It is between the alt/option key and the space bar
    When you are in single user mode, you are in Unix. you can try looking in the log files to see if you can find anything.
    To see the current boot log you use the dmsg command.
    dmsg
    startup information is in /var/log/system.log
    to display the last 500 lines use the tail command.
    tail -n 500 /var/log/system.log | more
    For these commands you will need to gain write access to your startup disk. There are some comments at the end of the startup process that list the needed commands.
    mac $ ls -lF ~/zztemp.txt
    ls: /Users/mac/zztemp.txt: No such file or directory
    mac $ tail -n 500 /var/log/system.log | cat > ~/zztemp.txt
    mac $ nano ~/zztemp.txt
    mac $
    I assume the message contained /Library/Logs/CrashReporter. Do a change directory:
    cd /Library/Logs/CrashReporter
    mac $ pwd
    /Library/Logs/CrashReporter
    mac $ ls

  • How do I make web shortcuts into start screen tiles that can be pushed to all users profile on a computer in Windows 8.1 enterprise?

    We are trying to roll out Windows 8.1 Enterpise in our school system (K-12).
    The focus of this question is how do we take an internet web based shortcut and make it into a screen tile (on the start screen) which will appear for any user's start screen that logs on to the computer?
    The details:
    We came upon a great paper that's entitled "Customize Windows 8.1 Start Screens by Using Group Policy".
    By applying this paper we were able to accomplish our first goal: Lock down the start screen so no user could change it. We accomplished this by using the Start Screen Layout policy setting laid out in the paper.
    Our second goal: to customize the start screen is only half way met. We can set up the start screen the way we want and then export the .xml file. We are able to "reimport" the .xml file when the new user logs in. The installed programs
    will appear on the Start Screen but not the internet based web shortcuts that were on the inital setup start screen.
    (FYI - tried creating these tiles by running the start screen internet explorer app to the intended address and pinning them to the start screen. At this time trying to figure if there is a place to put desktop internet short cuts into a directory to make
    them appear on the Start Screen).
    We can see that the directory: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs is a place for program files to appear on the start screen. Is there a location web based shortcuts can be placed to cause them to automatically appear on the start
    screen for every user as well? If not how do we accomplish getting these into tiles for every user logging in?
    Sorry for the lengthy explanation. Hopefully it gets our question answered and helps others out there in the same boat!

    Karen-
    Results: Did not work. The web based shortcuts did not appear.
    Below is the steps taken with your tips incorporated. (Again it's lengthy sorry about that, but anyone can recreate what was done here. Maybe someone can see something left out by doing/reviewing it).
    Here is what was done:
    1. Installed a fresh install of Windows 8.1 enterprise on a pc. No updates were ran.
    2. During setup created the admin account.
    3. Logged into the account a simple start screen was arranged and setup by:
    Starting desktop Internet Explorer. Going to Technet's website. Clicked tools and then selecting "Add site to Apps" from the drop down menu. Went to Apps screen, right clicked and pinned it to start screen. Repeated this procedure with an
    educational web based site.
    Right clicked a few provisioned apps and unpinned them from the start screen.
    Made a few groups and labeled them. Web based shortcuts were arranged with one provisioned app in that particular group.
    4. Opened a Powershell, right clicked it and ran as administrator. Typed the following:
    export-startlayout -path C:\Users\Public\Master.xml -as xml
    (Master is the name chosen for this test .xml file and was put in a location all users would have privelages to access it).
    5. Opened the command prompt and right clicked and "ran as administrator", typed in gpedit.
    6. In the Local Group Policy under User Configuration, under Start Menu and Taskbar I choose the Start Screen Layout.
    7. Enabled the policy and typed in: C:\Users\Public\Master.xml for the Start Layout File.
    8. Opened computer management, under Local Users and Groups I chose Users, right clicked in the middle screen and created a new user called Alpha.
    9. Logged out of the inital account and logged into newly created Alpha account.
    10. When the Alpha account logged in the start screen came up with everything changed in the inital account but no web based shortcuts were found on the start screen or App view.

  • ENVY dv7 laptop - Start screen in Windows 8 just flashes, can't get past that.

    Hello - the other night my daughter unplugged the AC adaptor to work away from her desk. Then, she plugged it in again and the screen was blank. She restarted, click on the User and the screen was just black. We shut down and started again and it would power up, then bring up the User prompt, but after you clicked that, the Windows 8 Start screen would just flash and you couldn't click on anything.
    I have followed directions for a hard reset (removing the battery, discharging any extra power and starting back up w/out peripherals attached), but that didn't work. I also tried disabling Windows Error Reporting Service and that didn't work. Also, I ran a quick systems check that said everying passed. Wondering what else I can try?
    Thanks for any help!

    Please check if you find it under system config and if you dont find it then refer to the steps mentioned below to do the test.
    System Diagnostics allows you to run diagnostic tests to determine if the computer hardware is functioning properly.

  • When I click on the Nightly Windows 8 Start Screen icon it opens the Firefox 18 on desktop, how do I open Nightly on Metro?

    Nightly was working on metro at first when I haven't installed Firefox 18 yet but when I installed Firefox 18 and thought it would run on metro if I set it as a default program which did not, opening nightly both on the desktop and start screen would open the firefox in the desktop instead.
    I uninstalled Nightly and downloaded and installed the version 20 for 32 bit. When I looked on the default programs to set Nightly all I could see is Nightly on the list but the icon has changed to that of Firefox's. I set it as default and still it doesn't open as metro.
    Any ideas how to fix this?

    This is because the regular central Nightly channel builds is only the desktop version. The version on Nightly development channel is at 21.0a1 now actually.
    You need a build that has Metro support.
    http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-elm/
    Many users state they cannot get Metro version to work on 32-bit Windows anyways.
    There is this running thread at mozillaZine about the Metro builds. http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2304983

  • How do I pin a firefox site to the Windows 8 start screen?

    I just got a new AIO with windows 8; not may favorite thing but I'm learning.
    I use Firefox as my browser exclusively but Window 8 help, of course, won't explain how to pin sites through other browsers. I had to set up my desktop on my start screen so I can open Firefox from there and then I can start browsing with Firefox - but there has to be an easier way....I've tried to search through the Firefox support but I'm an accountant, not a techie and this is getting very frustrating. lol I hope someone can explain to me how to do this. And in very small words please - remember I'm bean-counter. :)
    Thanks y'all.

  • Customize Windows 8.1 Start Screen/Start Menu and Minimizing Modern Apps

    How can I customize the start up menu?
    If not on desktop, I cannot minimize a window. Please tell me how.

    Windows 8/8.1 Metro mode doesn't have a "minimize switch" as Desktop mode, but we have alternative settings
    when you want to minimize your metro app, just click the left-bottom corner
    to back to the start screen, you can also switch between metro Apps or snap apps as described in the following link, it functions similar as desktop mode, so enjoy the new features.

  • Windows 8.1 Start Screen Problem

    Bought a new Acer laptop yesterday and it works just fine with the Windows 8.1 except for this one thing. It's not really a major one but it still is a problem I can't tolerate. My Start Screen/Start Menu kind of like compresses into the upper left corner
    of my screen. The upper left corner is the only 'functioning' area. I scroll and the tiles move and I can only see limited apps/programs. The rest of the screen is just blank, null. I'm pretty sure I haven't tweaked any settings that would result to this.
    Help me guys and thank you.

    Hi,
    How is the current situation?
    Like Zach said, we need more detailed information for analysis.
    I assume you want all of your apps, please click the arrow below:
    If you want add some more app to start screen, just right click that app icon, click
    Pin to Start. This app will appear in the start screen.

  • Windows 8.1 Start Screen via GPO

    Hello all,
    Thanks for taking the time to read this.  I realise there are other posts with similar issues to myself, however having read through these posts and applied fixes provided, I am still unable to get this to work.  I am having an issue when trying
    to apply the Start Screen Layout GPO.
    I am attempting to configure this GPO on my Windows 8.1 test network at the moment, but having no joy with it.
    I am using Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard, and Windows 8.1 Enterprise.
    Having done gpresult /r on my test workstation I can confirm the GPO has applied, and also when I check in the registry, the value has been changed in line with the GPO.
    The .xml file is located on a share, although I have also tried the with the .xml file locally on a single test machine and the start screen still does not change.
    Some of the policy is applying, as when I link the policy, I cannot then customize the start screen on my pc which from what I understand is expected behaviour. 
    Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Doug

  • How do I Install LabVIEW on Windows 8 without destroying my Start screen?

    I recently upgrdaded my computer and am running Windows 8 now.  I know lots of people will tell me that this was a terrible idea, but it is what it is.  I am actually liking the new start screen once I spent some time getting used to it.  It works well once you customize it to your needs.  Anyway, the problem that I am having, is that when you install NI software (LabVIEW, TestStand, Toolkits, and drivers), about 100 things are added to your start screen.  See "Screenshot 1.png" to see what I am talking about.  
    My immediate fix was to edit the start menu folder and put everything that I don't need in folder in "My Documents" - called "National Instruments Shortcuts".  Then I just put a shortcut to this folder in my start menu directory.  This gives me the result shown in "Screenshot 2.png".  But my worry is that when NI sends you an update every 6 months and you install, it is going to put everything back.  
    I am guessing that I am at the mercy of NI to become more Windows 8 friendly.  But maybe somebody here has a better idea?

    If a LabVIEW bug is exposed to my customers, I can't just blame it on NI - I have to implement some sort of workaround to hide the bug from my customers so that they don't know its there. 
    For me that depends on many factors, like the severity of the issue and the relationship with the customer.  Plenty of times I do inform the customer of a LabVIEW bug.  If DAQmx craps out after running for a long time (and NI agrees) I'll do what I can to avoid it, but having a customer think it is my fault when it isn't, is no solution.
    Back to the original post I'd highly recommend what others probably already have and that's Classic Shell.  I combine this with DisplayFusion and my Windows 8.1 box works just like Windows 7.  I've only ever seen the new start once, and that was right after the install, right before installing those two tools.

  • Removing HP registration tile from start screen in Windows 8.1

    I registered my new laptop with HP. I try to delete the HP registration tile from the start screen and I cannot complete the directions as I never get an option to unpin the tile from start. Help would be appreciated.... DD

    Hi, I just uninstalled that tile from a Windows 8.1 computer. Here's how I did it:
    Right-click the tile.
    In the options bar that pops up at the bottom of the screen, click the Uninstall icon (the graphic looks like a garbage can).
    In the list of options that pops-up, click Uninstall.
    Hope that helps! Post again if you have any more questions.

  • Disable context menus in Start Screen in Windows 8.1 Update 1

    Is there a way to disable the context menus introduced with Windows 8.1 Update 1?  They make customizing the Start screen much less user friendly than it was previously.
    For example, if I want to move/customize multiple tiles, I have to either do it individually or hold control when clicking on the tiles.  Previously I could just right click multiple tiles and it would select them all (which is much easier since it
    only involves the mouse).
    One of the reasons I liked the Start screen was not needing to navigate menu trees of varying complexity.  The context menus are re-introducing that, and I'd prefer to not use them if it was possible.

  • Source Safe causing LabVIEW Quick Start Screen to not appear after closing open vi windows?

    Hey All,
    We've recently implemented Source Safe version control for LabVIEW on XP and I've noticed that LabVIEW is hanging between closing open vi windows and showing the Quick Start Screen.  The usual pattern is for the Quick Start window to appear after the last open vi window is closed.  Instead the vi window is closed, the tab at the bottom of the screen says debug development and the Quick Start Screen does not appear, the tab does not read "Getting Started."
    I think it is a LabVIEW <--> Source Safe issue when I do a Task Manager Exit on the LabVIEW process that I sometimes see a dialog box asking if I want to save changes in memory to disc and those files are not checked out.  But it is too late at that point to do anything as XP clobbers the application before I can do anything.
    Anyone else have this issue?
    Message Edited by Drewski on 05-30-2008 02:28 PM

    What LabVIEW version do you use?
    I have used SourceSafe in every version from 8.0, and in the way some bugs are resolved.

  • Suggestion: Please make a Visual Studio Solution Explorer that is similar to Windows 8 Start Screen

    We have monitors now that are enormous and it is now the norm to develop on three or more monitors.  Yet we still try to crowd project navigation info that pleads to be fully visualized into a tiny window as if expanding it is somehow a waste of space.
    I mention Windows 8 start screen in the title of this post.  I have no particular love for the start screen except that it is a different spin on a strict hierarchical display of information.  I like that it has the objective of using all available
    screen space to present information that would otherwise be shown in a tiny corner of the screen.  So my suggestion in its most general form is for you guys to find a way to use the entire screen to allow a developer to quickly and easily navigate a large
    VS project.
    For example, even if I fully expand the Solution Explorer to take up the space of an entire monitor the top level nodes of my project take up a tiny fraction of the available screen space - I have to drill down up to 12 levels to reach my files.  And when
    I get to the point where I think I see the file I want, the higher level folders have scrolled off the screen so I loose my place in the project.
    A couple of suggestions for a new Solution Explorer:
    Edit: Make the Solution Explorer more like the Windows 8 Start screen or a file directory browser in the sense that Start Screen is a full-screen navigation screen versus a control that is primarily desigend to be docked.  If I maximize Solution Explorer
    on my monitor the MOST screen space it will use is about 20% down the left edge of my screen.  Even with 80% of my screen left EMPTY, I am clicking and clicking and scrolling and clicking and scrolling in order to navigate to where I need to be. /Edit
    Show an always-visible breadcrumb across the top of the window so the user can navigate up quickly and also maintain a sense of location within the project.
    Show folders and files horizontally and vertically.  USE THE ENTIRE WINDOW! Allow different views just as we see in Windows file explorer.
    Allow (large) user defined icons to be associated with projects, folders and files.  Instead of showing the same icon for every project in a solution, default to a unique icon.  Thats why we use icons, right?
    Allow projects and folders to have foreground/background color properties.
    "Scope to this" on the context menu is great... please add the root name on the tab.
    It would also be very helpful to display the full directory and solution name on the VS title bar to avoid confusion when working with different versions of the same project.  There are a couple add-ons that do this... why has it become necessary for add-ons.
