I have LibreOffice installed but it put a whole bunch of options in my 'New' context menu in File Explorer (Windows 10). I want it gone but I can't find the option in LibreOffice's preferences. I found some answers on the web saying "open regedit and modify the registry" but that's ridiculous - I'm looking for the option provided by LibreOffice settings - I mean it MUST exist somewhere, right?
If the option doesn't exist I'd also like to know, I'll then create a feature request. And uninstall LO until they fix it because it's driving me nuts :P
So I haven't found the option yet but you can disable it during installation. When asked, choose Custom and disable the Windows Explorer integration.
Still curious where the option is to disable it after installation though..

I don't know why I am getting this error suddenly whilst using vs code. Please help me, Thanks in advance.
P.S(I don't think files can be created in an exe right? I'm not sure after seeing this. Maybe do I have to specify where the file should be created and if yes, please tell me how. Else I'm looking for another answer)
(Edit): I tried downloading the system installation instead of the user installation. The system installer installs for all users on the system and needs administrator privileges unlike the user installer which install vs code only the particular user installing it.
Thanks, Codestrip
error
my solution for this was to set it to always start as administrator, I don't feel like reinstalling vscode (newly installed)
It's not a great solution for those who have multiple users, but I got rid of the error.
Ah, I saw that was a problem within User Permission, there were only 2 options checked. https://prnt.sc/uV-bF_q52Y3Y
I hope my solution will help you.
If you run your "vscode" as admin then you won't see this error
anymore.
Go to your "vscode" install location
If not sure then open the start menu.
Write vscode.
Right click on the icon and click "Open File Location".
In a new window there will be again an icon for the "vscode" right click on the icon
Again and click "open file location".
In another window, there will be an actual vscode's "exe" file.
Right-click on this file and go to the "send" > "send on desktop" option.
On the Desktop right-click on the icon and go to the properties
Click on Advance Option and Check the "Run as Admin" Option
Click Apply and Ok.
Now if you want Right Click on this icon again and select "pin to taskbar".
Hopefully, you won't see this error again.
I also encountered this error.
I tried remove the folder Microsoft VS Code inside C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\Programs, and problem seems resloved
I had the same issue. But I fixed it. just go to this link and add take ownership to your context menu.
https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/3841-add-take-ownership-context-menu-windows-10-a.html
After adding take ownership just go to vs code main directory and right-click on the Microsoft VS Code folder then press take ownership. After that your problem will be solved.
Got myself Visual Studio Code. I've installed a Uncrustify extension to make my files be formatted when I edit them. I wanted to make it format my files on save, but I cannot open like Options menu for this extension or something like that. The author gives this screenshot:
But I cannot reach that menu. When I click on this little gear circle near the extension under the Extensions tab, it just pops up a menu with: Disable (Workspace), Disable (Always), Uninstall. I can only edit 4 things, like my .cfg file path under Ctrl+Comma settings, but that's not what I am searching for, and it's not what is on this screen provided by author
I guess I am not only asking about this particular extension, but generally for extension settings in this editor.
Many ways mentioned here in an issue created available on VSCode repository: Allow to change settings from Extensions editor.
On Windows, I could be able to change settings by going to:
File -> Preferences -> Settings -> Extensions.
Dont know if you figured it out yet or not but maybe for someone who comes here to find an answer.
Step 1: Press ctrl+alt+p to open the command pallet.
Step 2: Search and execute this command Uncrustify: Open config file
If your config file has not been created, then before step 2 you must execute Uncrustify: Create default config file command.
Anyways, these instructions are present their in Details section of the extension.
I start using vscode less than a month. Please forgive me if this is a dump question.
OS: OS X 10.11.3
VSCode: 0.10.6
Plugin: VSCode-PHP-Format (download via git clone)
Extension path: ~/.vscode/extensions/VSCode-PHP-Format
I restarted VSCode, open php files, but do not see "Format Code" on the right click menu.
Any idea how to debug this? Right now I don't even know if the plugin load correctly.
With tips from Tobiah Zarlez, I found the "Toggle Developer Tools" in VSCode.
It is shown in the console the plugin cannot find js-beautify.
Solution
Inside ~/.vscode/extensions/VSCode-PHP-Format, run
npm install
It will pull in js-beautify. Then restart VSCode.
I am on my phone and not able to double check to see if it is there, but I'd recommend installing from the visual studio marketplace to insure the plug in is installed correctly. You can do so by hitting CTRL+SHIFT+P and typing "install extension"
Beyond that, a quick glance at the code the plug in should be activated when you open a php file... but since this is a third party plugin, I can't speak to if it actually works or not.
(Again, on phone so can't test)
What you could do is modify the extension.js file to add a "console.log ("hello world")" to the activate function. Them check the log to see if the plug in is installed correctly.
I saw you weren't the only person to complain about the plug in not working though. If I were you, I would continue to try and contact the creator
I just downloaded the Visual Studio Code App from https://code.visualstudio.com/ and when I tried to install it, it simply just installed it by itself, without the option to change the installation path.
I have an external harddrive, which is where I want the IDE to be placed instead of the Local Harddrive. How can I change this?
On the VSCode download page select "System Installer" instead of "User Installer". The System installer will prompt you for the install location.
Full credit to Hans Passant for giving the following working solution as a comment.
The installer does very little beyond copying the files, it just creates some Explorer context menu shortcuts ("Open with Code"). Otherwise following Chromium conventions and copying itself to c:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Code\app-0.1.0 so it can update itself without you noticing. Boo. So high odds that simply moving that folder to the other drive works just fine, put it anywhere and create a shortcut to Code.exe. If you still want the context menu entry to work then use Regedit and search for "code\app-0.1.0".
I just downloaded Eclipse IDE and Netbeans directly from the websites and installed then in my Ubuntu 12.04. I have some questions:
1 - How can I add their shortcuts in the Ubuntu's sidebar?
2 - When I add shortcuts in desktop using the gnome-desktop-item-edit app, I can't have super user permissions to manipulate then, the Netbeans IDE (that uses a script file to start) shows lots of erros telling that some files are read-only. How can I add sudo privileges in a launcher created with gnome-desktop-item-edit?
Sorry by my poor english.
As far as question #1, first, open the program. Find its icon on the side bar, and right-click it, then select “Keep in Launcher.”
As for #2, in Ubuntu, you can edit the item to run with gksudo COMMAND, but that's extremely unwise (running anything with elevated privileges on the desktop. You should probably instead fix the permissions of the relevant files (right-click on the file, and give yourself permission)
Well, after some days trying to find the better solution for my problem, I think that the better solution is first, Download Eclipse and/or NetBeans IDE from the Ubuntu Software Center and after:
For NetBeans:
Use the IDE's plugin's manager to download the needed ones, and make (if you want) an IDE update process.
For Eclipse:
After download, follow the steps of this link.
After follow this, you can easely create favorite links to your "sidebar" if you use Gnome 3 as me, or make desktop shortcuts without needing sudo privileges, just using the gnome-desktop-item-edit tool or whatever you prefer.
