Windows 8: Non-working hyperlinks in programs

In many applications, hyperlinks do not open Internet Explorer 10. It can be very frustrating to have an application like mail, Skype, Teamspeak, or a custom application that sends an HTTP request through Internet Explorer, only to have nothing happen after clicking on the link. برامج تجيب فلوس The problem with Windows 8 is that now the shell command that would open IE10 has a “Delegate Execute” command in the registry that points the HTTP hook elsewhere. The problem may also happen with other browsers, such as Google Chrome. Fortunately, the problem does not occur with applications opening links with Mozilla Firefox enabled as the default Internet Browser. مشاهدة beoutq A good test to see if you’re having this obscure problem is to set FF as the default browser and test if links do open. If the link does not open in IE but opens in FF, then the following is the solution to make IE open when links are clicked. عايزه لعبه ليدو

Open a text editor in Windows 8

Copy and Paste the following:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\IE.HTTP\shell\open\command]
"DelegateExecute"=-
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\IE.HTTPS\shell\open\command]
"DelegateExecute"=-

Save as IEFix.reg (Make sure it is .reg, not a .txt)

As an Administrator, merge this registry change. Either Double-Click in an Administrator account or run CMD as an Administrator and open the .reg

Make sure IE is set as the default browser.

Links will now work in programs and open in IE.

IE8 Won’t print (Print preview is blank), “Help and Support” doesn’t work, and System Restore is blank

wget Read error (Connection reset by peer)

Problem:
HTTP request sent, awaiting response… Read error (Connection reset by peer) in headers. لعبة دومينو حقيقية
Retrying.

The linux command, wget, returns this error over and over again even though you can download the file just fine using a web browser.

Solution:
It turns out some webservers don’t like wget. Luckily, you can get around their dislike of wget by adding a switch to the command. Simply add –user-agent=Mozilla and you will be able to download the file.

Example:
change:
wget http://www.somewebsite.tld/somefile.pdf
to:
wget –user-agent=Mozilla http://www.somewebsite.tld/somefile.pdf

Every .exe file generates a “Bad Image” error

The error looks something like:

program.exe – Bad Image
The application or DLL C::\WINDOWS\system32\hakumano.dll is not a valid Windows Image

The error message pops up while the computer is booting into windows and every single time you try to open an application. Every. Single. Time.

You click “OK” whenever it comes and continue about your business. The error doesn’t seem to cause any issues it is just annoying that it pops up all the time.

I came across this problem after I removed some malware from a customer’s computer. In this particular case, I used the free version of MalwareBytes Anti-Malware. MalwareBytes successfully removed all of the malware but left a registry entry was left over that caused windows to attempt to load hakumano.dll every time anything executable ran (including .com files).

Solution:

  1. Click Start.
  2. Choose Run.
  3. Type regedit.exe and press enter.
  4. Navigate to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\windows]
  5. Right-click AppInit_DLLs and choose Modify.
  6. Delete anything in the Value Data field and click OK.
  7. Verify you can run a program without generating the error message.
  8. Close the Registry Editor. Problem solved.

Alternate Solution (found at techsupportforum.com):

Launch Notepad, (Start > Run, type in: notepad) copy and paste the text in blue below in it:(don’t forget to copy and paste REGEDIT4)

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\windows]
“AppInit_DLLs”=””

Save this as fix.reg and change the “Save as type” to “All Files” and place it on your desktop. It should look like A REG FILE.

Double-click on it and when it asks you if you want to merge the contents to the registry, click “Yes” or “OK”. You should receive a message that it was successful. You may delete the file afterward.
