Does anyone know why my computer won't save files?
It has happened in the last few weeks, I try to save a photo of file to desktop or documents, but they are nowhere to be found.

I am using firefox and turned off my firewall but it still wont work...any suggestions?

Go to the 1st tab of firefox preferences and make sure the radio button is highlighted to save to your desktop.

Firefox is fine. Any web browser is fine. Users just don't give enough a fuck to actually learn how to use them.

Save everything important onto a flash drive or whatever, then reload your operating system, it will be like having a new computer.

It's a common problem. All of the bits have settled. Take the machine and shake it vigorously then replace it on your desk upside down. This will create space between the bits and once fluffed keeping the machine upside down will prevent them from packing themselves too tightly again.

Or









You could BUY A REAL COMPUTER

It downloads behind the main window. Click on drop down menu called "Window" and see if there's a second window open. Also check your preferences and see what the file location is set to by default.

Computers don't make mistakes. People make mistakes.
Computers are not stupid. People are stupid.

Go through your preferences and familiarise yourself with what they mean. Being "completely useless" with "technology" is just so 2001. Get with the programme and educate yourself sucker fools.

Re: Does anyone know why my computer won't save files?
I had the same problem, alotof us do, people say to go into your firefox setting tabs and all this muble jumble, easy solution.

Go to the control panel and go into your account settings. Turn off User Account control and turn it off.
Secondly, if you have AVG free, 8.0,8.5 and AVG, Delete if from your computer and delete every file asoitiated with it. Restart your commputer and it'll be all good.
Also, now that you need a new anti virus program download Avast! Free, Its better then any other anti virus and its free.
