windows

:doh: I have accidentally deleted a tile for an email account from my start menu. The email account does not appear in the apps list so it is not possible to pin to start from there. I tried deleting the email account then adding it again but this does not generate a new tile. How can I...

Recently got a free sim card. Father in law having problem with his pay as you go phone. Solution was o give him the free sim card in my old Nokia Lumia 800 running windows 7. Set it up as he needed it (bearing in mind he is nearly 80!). Next day SWMBO decided he needed an email account on...

I have a very nice W124 230CE. Yesterday, taking advantage of the first hot weather that we have had for weeks, I went out and wound down all of the windows and the sliding roof, and enjoyed myself immensely, until I returned home and tried to shut the windows again. The passenger door window...

The remote key shuts the windows (if open) if I point it at the sensor on the drivers door handle. However, tried this yesterday and it didn't work, even from close up. Is this likely to be a key or receiver issue? PS I have a spare key somewhere so going to try and see if that exhibits the...

Not sure why MB in the 1970s used woven cloth on the outerchannels to the doors and rear panel of my W114 250 CE (coupe) . These are the bits that guide the window as it operates up and down and are on the quarter light and door as well as on the rear window frame. They have the water defeating...

Just a reminder folks - Windows 10 is free to upgrade until the end of play tomorrow (29/07/16). After that, it is a paid-for upgrade. There is also a big update due on 02/08/16 for it.

Hi, can anyone offer a bit of advice please. The driver window on my SLK has developed a problem. To start with it sounded like the motor was running on after the window was opened or closed, but has now moved onto sometimes not working at all, after a few tries it will work, but continues to...

My passenger window regulator snapped. I bought a repair kit on eBay, got it all off, replaced the unit, it took a few hours but got it done. Put it back on again today and I can't get the window to behave properly. I've read some instructions about programming the windows and have tried...

Evening all. I'm working my way through a few bits that need sorting on my R500. I've got a new battery to fit this coming week (its a big bu**er, I'll have to be careful I don't put my back out....:eek: ), I 'fixed' the rear parking sensors (what I mean is, I realised the display is viewed in...

This started yesterday. Bit of sunshine down here on the south coast, so pressed both front windows down to the 2nd position so they auto-roll all the way down. When we came to do them up they weren't moving- replaced the blown fuse and they went up OK. Today I had the same problem again, so I...

I was having trouble with one of my front windows not responding to the window switch. At first it was intermittent, but slowly got worse until it was almost impossible to get the window to go back up. Here comes an expensive trip to the Mercedes garage, I thought!!! All the switches on the...

From the 5 minute on Google I have had time for, this appears to be quite a common problem. Anybody come across this, if so ideas/fixes welcome!

2009 CLK convertible Today, for the first time in 6 months, when you close the door (either side) the windows don't seal fully with that final few mm or closure Ditto, when opening windows they don't (as they are already in the drop position) I have tried the rest by putting IGN to 2 and...

If anyone out there is not happy with Windows 10, I found a tutorial on how to get Windows 7 back. Be quick, there is a one month deadline from the point at which it was installed. I have not tried this yet, as the process takes 1-2 hours and of course you do this at your own risk...

I opened a computer this morning which runs Windows 7 professional to be greeted by a blue screen, "now the legals". This was a Microsoft Terms and conditions page. I pressed the back button and it said "Welcome to your Windows 10 upgrade". I had not requested the upgrade, so I decided to...

Does anyone know how easy/difficult it is to retrofit electric rear windows to a vito (W639) ? On mine they're on little manual catches (they only tilt open a fraction). On my previous vito which was a V280 they were electric which was dead handy.

Hi The brand new GLE we got a couple of weeks ago, cleaning today ie taking the dust off it as rarely driven. As I was removing the dust form the outside of the car, and car was open as I has moved it on the drive, all four windows opened by about 3 inches - it startled me. The car has the...

Does the CL55 have one touch windows all around? I only seem to have them at the front? I did have to program them as the battery must have been disconnected at some stage.

Windows 10 start menu is mis-behaving Works normally for a few hours then left clicking on the windows icon bottom left of the screen has no effect. Right clicking still works. Any ideas for a solution please.

Might be a silly question, I have a R172 SLK - should the rear windows be up when the roof is down?
