File explorer does not open OneDrive - onedrive

My OS is Windows 10. When I click on OneDrive in File Explorer, it does not open.
Note that, My file explorer works for every other drive and folder. However, when I open OneDrivefrom the start menu, it opens a copy of OneDrive in file explorer!
I have reinstalled and restarted, but no luck.
All of a sudden, it decided not to work.
Any suggestion?

Visual Studio does not find form1.vb unless in specific folder

I'm a novice VB and Visual Studio amateur user. I've been developing app in VS 2019 for a while with no problems. Project is stored on my google drive in a folder named "source". Recently upgraded computer, reinstalled VS 2019 and mapped google drive back in and copied "source" back. Now when I load my project, I get an error that form1.vb is not found. app has 4 forms. All of the other forms show up. Looking at the error log and properties it appears that "google drive" is added the path for the file ":g\google drive\source\repo\myapp\". Even if a copy the folder to another location it keeps looking for "google drive". IE: "new location\google drive\form1.vb" If I create a folder named "google drive" and drop in form1.vb it loads. I can't figure out where the appendage is coming from or how to fix it.
Found a working solution but not the cause.
Copied source folder to new location, deleted "form1". Then copied "form1" back in from the old non working folder. It loads as expected.

How to save an open .pdf file in Adobe Acrobat 10 with VBA

I am writing an application in Microsoft Visual Studio which will open a pdf file from a database. Acrobat 10 is installed on the host machine.
I want to:
Detect that the .pdf file has been opened
Save the .pdf file to a given directory once it has been opened
I could always use the mouse pointer to navigate to "file", "save as" and save the file, however I want this to work on multiple machines with varying screen sizes.
I hope there is a way with the supporting libraries that this can be done, thank you!

Open Internet Explorer In Excel VBA through direct program path

I had an excel macro used to open an internet explorer application and manipulate the program. It worked perfectly for quite some time. However, some of my users have discovered that they need 64 bit internet explorer running in order to maintain some of their printing preferences (the macro automatically prints pages from our website). The macro could work if the internet explorer program was launched from the link C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IExplore.exe.
My previous code to open the ie program was:
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
ie.Visible = True
ie.navigate ("URL")
How can I make it so that my object ie specifically opens the internet explorer through the file path C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IExplore.exe and creates it as the object just as it did previously? The internet explorer installed on our computers is ie9 if that matters.
The so-called Desktop version of IE (not the Metro version) runs a 64-bit IE frame with all IE windows being 32-bit. This is accomplished by Windows shipping default with both 64-bit (in Program Files) and 32-bit (in Program Files (x86)) versions of IE. Microsoft doesn't want people to run Desktop version of IE. Their most excellent reasoning is in the article by an Internet Explorer manager at Q&A: 64-Bit Internet Explorer. The 64-bit version of Internet Explorer 9 cannot be set up as the default browser either.
The following from your Q might suggest another way of attacking this: However, some of my users have discovered that they need 64 bit internet explorer running in order to maintain some of their printing preferences: Why is this so and does it have anything to do with the bit-ness of the printer drivers installed?

VB.NET server not "launchable" after computer reboot

I'm trying to learn how to code a server in VB.Net. I'm coding on Visual Studio.
My server works, my clients interact with it.
The thing is that if I reboot my computer, I have to make a new projet and copy/paste my code in order for my server to work.
If I don't do this my clients don't see my server.
I have no idea of why. If anyone have an idea I'll be very thankful.

Find your exe file in your project folders and create a windows shortcut to it
On Windows 7 and earlier versions of Windows, the Start menu contained a “Startup” folder to make this easy. On these versions of Windows, you can simply open your Start menu, locate a shortcut to an application you want to start automatically, right-click it, and select Copy. Next, locate the Startup folder under All Apps in the Start menu, right-click it, and select Paste to paste a copy of that shortcut.
From this site:
This folder is no longer as easily accessible on Windows 8, 8.1, and 10, but it’s still accessible. To access it, press Windows Key + R, type “shell:startup” into the Run dialog, and press Enter. Yes, you’ll need to use the folder — you can’t simply add shortcuts from the Task Manager’s Startup pane.
Shortcuts you add to the “shell:startup” folder will only launch when you log in with your user account. If you’d like a shortcut to launch itself whenever any user logs in, type “shell:common startup” into the Run dialog instead.

Access denied to the path While writing a file in windows 7 using vb.net windows application

I am having a windows application. That downloads files from server and write into the local directory. It works fine. When we try the same appliication in Windows 7. IT shows an error Access to the path denied (While writing to the local directory). Any one please help...
It could be UAC issue. Try to start the program as Administrator.
just FYI, to start the program as Administrator: right-click on the program -> click on 'Run as Administrator'
