no icons on desktop' cannot open task manager

I've got a vaio laptop that was working fine till yesterday ( only problem is that screen is broken so i always attach it to a monitor with hdmi) but when i opened it today only the wallpaper is shown on desktop(no icons). If i try to open cmd , it does open it but i can only see it in minimized version if i let my mouse on it's icon for a bit. I tried to system restore writing on cmd rstrui.exe but i can only see the wimdow in minimized form by lettingnthe mouse on system restore icon. I tried to complete system restore by just hitting enter but i can't complete it like this (since i can see it only in minimised i can't navigate using the mouse). Most answers i found where saying to use task manager but i can only see task manager in minimised form. Any idea will be really helpfull. Thank you for your time.

How do i establish a filezilla connection to my localhost?

I do have Filezilla Server download and FileZilla interface itself. I am having problems when connecting. Can you please guide me on how to precisely connect to my localhost. I do it by, File>Connect to server: Server Address: 127.0.0.1 (localhost) Port: 21 or 14124 i try either, none work. I left the password box blank, cause I do not have a password and don't know where to create one or how. Please explain that.

I have also tried my administrator password and username i use to start my computer, but still not working I check the box where it says, Always connect to this sever. The error I get:

Error, could not connect to server Trying to reconnect in 5 seconds Reconnecting to server... Error, could not connect to server Trying to reconnect in 5 seconds

Waiting for help. :lol:

I have also tried to configure my windows firewall. Please i need urgent reply.

WinNT - Get all users that have access to a fileshare - VB.NET

My problem : I'm searching to find all users or groups that have access to a fileshare in WinNT and waht is their rights to this fileshare.

I can find all files shared on a machine like this :

Function WinNT_Share_List()
    Dim ShareSrvObj = GetObject("WinNT://" & Environment.MachineName & "/LANMANSERVER")
    Dim str = ""
    For Each ShareObj In ShareSrvObj
        str = str & ShareObj.Name & vbNewLine
    Next
    Dim ret As String()
    ret = str.Split(New Char() {vbCr})
    Return ret
End Function

Dim Share = GetObject("WinNT://" & Environment.MachineName & "/LANMANSERVER/MyShare")
    Dim Array(2) As Object
    Array(0) = "user"
    Array(1) = "group"
    Share.Filter = Array
    Dim DisplayString = ""

Should I set the Arguments parameter when using FormatMessage to retrieve Windows API error messages?

I am attempting to get the error message that relates to the GetLastError Windows API function.

I have followed the examples given here relating to the FormatMessage function:

How to get the error message from the error code returned by GetLastError()?

http://ift.tt/1vN0UTA

My implementation is returning a string but noticed through testing that some error messages are including text such as "%1". For example, for the error code 574:

{Application Error} The exception %s (0x%08lx) occurred in the application at location 0x%08lx.

I assume that this is resolved by setting the Arguments parameter in the FormatMessage function. However, I cannot find a suitable tutorial/example for setting this parameter on system error messages. The links I have provided set this parameter to NULL.

Is this because ANY Windows API call that sets the last error message via SetLastError never uses a code that corresponds to a message that uses the Arguments parameter?

Otherwise, how do I create such a va_list for system error messages?

Sikuli setup won't execute

I am trying to install sikuli v1.0.1 on a new computer. I have installed Sikuli on other machines before and it works like a charm.

This time however, sikuli won't start the setup.

As usual, I copied the setup-file into a folder on the desktop and then executed the file to receive the "runSetup" file and the log, which worked just fine.

However, when I execute the runSetup file, the cmd-window briefly appears and closes almost instantly with no further window opening as I am used to...

Does anyone have an idea to solve the issue?

I am trying to install on a windows 7, 64bit (just like all other computers, where I have worked with Sikuli)

Thanks in advance!
