3 recycle Bin folders on external HARD drive

Why doesn't the $RECYCLE. BIN on my external HARD drive show different files when I run Windows 8 and Windows 7?
I guess that both present the same content, but they do not.

James

It is a normal behavior. It is doubtful, you will get an answer as to why.
To answer your question, no, if you disable the Recycle Bin, the files will be deleted immediately on this drive.

  • How to see the files in the Recycle Bin on the 2nd hard drive

    I have a second hard drive on my computer (Win7 Pro) which was an old boot drive.  My antivirus tells me that there is a Trojan horse on one of the files in the Recycle Bin on the 2nd disc.  I can't find or see the trash of the E: drive, so I can't delete the contents of this basket.  How can I find the Recycle Bin is not on the primary drive?

    Same basket or on your desktop.  Just right-click and empty.  Or right-click and choose Properties to see which drive (s) it's for.

  • Lightroom CC - edition in the external editor with images located on the external hard drive problems

    I have recently moved most of my image containing folders on external hard drive. In general, everything works smoothly in Lightroom (running latest CC). However, if I try to use an external editor of in Lightroom, I managed opening image in Photoshop CC if it is chosen. However, if I try to edit in a NIK Collection programs (i.e. Viveza 2) or affinity Photo I get error messages. The copy of Tiff is generated within lightroom, but at the spearhead of the external editor the following messages are met...

    • Viveza 2 - 'News file. Plist could not be opened"
    • Photo of affinity - "'could not open the file - / Volumes/4Tb iMac/2015-10-20-202036/Macintosh of the castle of my book 2 Backup/Backups.backupdb/Neil HD/Applications/Adobe Illustrator CS5/Plug-ins.localized/Photoshop Filters.localized/Unsharp Mask.aip/Contents/Resources/he.lproj/InfoPlist.strings the file type is not supported.". " My external backup drive is " " " 4 TB my book 2 backup" but my images are on an external drive called "4 TB My Book 1" ".

    However, if I move the folders containing images of problem on my desktop (iMAC 27 2015) in Lightroom external editor command change... works very well. The images open with Nik Collection and Photo of affinity and save in Lightroom when save. Everyone knows about this problem? And if you have, is there a resolution?


    Any help/advice greatly appreciated.

    Neil

    Looks like I solved my problem with Lightroom. I disassembled my external backup drive, but upheld the disk external drive containing the photos up and then restarted my mac. After the reboot, I open Lightroom and chose the image on an external drive for mounting in affinity Photo and Collection of Nik. Both image successfully opened in editors. I reassembled the backup drive and rebooted time machine and repeated the same opening picture in external editors. Once again, works great. Have no idea where the original problem. Looks like a bad path was stored in a config somewhere file.

  • Creating catalog on external hard drive

    Hello.

    I just bought LR5 & amp; want to use the library etc. on an external HD

    Could someone give some advice on how to implement. I found the default location on my MacBook Pro HD and the folder contains excerpts from catalog & amp; the catalogue but I'm not sure if I copy / paste it into a folder on my external or I I let them.

    Any advice will be welcome

    Adrian

    I recommend you leave the catalog in the default location. It will work more efficiently and is relatively small in size compared to your image files. Just place all your photos in folders on external hard drive, then use Import > Add to align on Lightroom.

  • $recycle.bin files on external drive

    When McAfee scanning my WD external drive, it takes hours and hours as it analyzes the many files called $recycle.bin. I mean hours and hours.  I cannot find these files on my external hard drive, nor indeed on my computer either.  Is there a way to find and delete the 'old'?  Thank you.

    They are hidden and system files.  Go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / view and check the box to show the hidden files and folders, check the box to show system files and uncheck to hide extension for known file types.  Click OK and close.  Go back to your external drive, and you should now be able to view the files.  I have one on my system at the root of the C: drive as the first entry.  I do not understand why you have so much of.  I'm not sure about the consequences of the removal of the old (do NOT delete all) - I've never seen a case where there were many.  I suggest that you create a system restore point before you do any delete or rename.  I would also first try to rename Recycle1.old or something like that first and then see if everything works (especially your Recycle Bin and deleting files).  If after a few days, everything seems to work fine, so go ahead and delete the renamed files and it should go.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • I've just backed up with an external hard drive for the first time, but my profile with my folders for photos, documents, and movies are not there

    Hello

    So, I finally got an external hard drive. I formatted for Mac (the device has been verified as being correct), and then he started to do a backup, which stated that a full backup would take 95GB. However, it only supported 19GB.  When I have my 'open' backup drive, I saw that only 'Macintosh HD' received support upward, not my user profile with all my folders containing documents, photos, movies, etc...

    I'm quite confused, because I thought that it would save.  I plan on Snow Leopard update to El Capitan, but if something is wrong or I don't like, I'm afraid that I won't be able to restore all my personal files - but only the applications that are on my Macintosh HD.

    Should I delete everything in my backup disk and try again?

    This is an image of what's inside my external hard drive:

  • External hard drive creates folders and files and lose the music I synced to it.

    I've been struggling with my 8 GB Clip +, which is the same thing my old 4 GB Clip + has. It creates files SID and incorporate in the album folders. Renamed it with records of the characters of 8 or 9 (alpha and digital) at the beginning of the file name, and some of the music I download does not exist when I disconnect the player and it refreshes. It does this for MP3 AND WMA files, if I use Media Player or Windows Explorer.

    I loaded all my WMA files on the internal hard disk (that works absolutely perfect), responsible for MP3s ONLY on the external hard drive and got the same result. The external hard drive has been reformatted, there is no debris of what anyone to spoil things. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    So after spending most of my Sunday with my 8 GB Clip + and its 8GB external drive, I found that the problems mentioned previously disappear if opt you for USB mode MSC. I was then able to transfer MP3 and WMA using Windows Media Player or Windows Explorer. I even got to explore open and hung out and deposited the files in window Media Player sync. Very Cool! Also, when I tried to copy something that she already had, he said that the case was already transferred. Amazing! In the past, it should continue to record the same.

    Although I must say that a WMA file problem: some of the music files were not correctly identified and is not 'stick' to the albums they came from. But a search for individual songs revealed they were always there, even if the Sansa could not "identify the album they belong to.

    I hope this helps others. At the end of the day, my advice is: If you have an external drive, the USB MSC mode, and you won't have any major problems - just a few small, boring ones.

    And thanks for the two of you who responded to my original post. Yes, the player has been on auto-detection mode - not good.

  • files and folders: How can I load all my files and folders to my new account of my external hard drive?

    Who can help, I just put a new account on my computer and deleted the old account. I backed up the old files on my external hard drive. I want to know is how can I load all my files and folders to my new account of my external hard drive? I thank you for your time and knowledge have a very nice evening, Shawn

    Because it's a new account (even if with the same name), the restore procedure is unable to put files and folders in the same place, they came (because this place technically no longer - if yes, then the process is done and the transfer is complete). It can create a set of separate files (maybe even under a new user name, if it has been stored in this way).  If so, all you need to do is copy the data as you would copy any other files and folders (not the main files of the user profile themselves but the data in them) on the new files in your user account and who will take care of the transfer. Here is more information about the restore procedure which may help you in the process.

    Here is an article on the restore procedure:http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

    This is a GREAT article on the backup and restore processes in Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx , but he won't go into detail about the restoration process - considering almost as easy, of course.  But it teaches you a lot about what is possible and how to do it.  It also focuses primarily on the full backup process, but he did mention the full backup and restore process as well.

    8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

    9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that thebackup location is not available " ")

    10. and you press "next".

  • Read only folders and files on external hard drive

    Windows 7 keeps setting the already existing folders and files on my external hard drive for read only. I used the Properties dialog box to remove read-only from the folder and all subfolders and files. This seems to run correctly, but of course, this isn't.

    It is a serious aggravation and wonder if there is a fix that I have not been able to find. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I understand that after saving a file with a different name, her attribute "removes the read-only" you have no problem with again to change. If the problem is related only to files that have been previously registered with Windows XP.

    You can try this: move one of the old files on your desktop > make sure that the read-only attribute is not checked > bring it back to your external drive > check is possible to edit now. If it will work, you can just do this for all your files, simply by copying both.

    ...

    I also wonder what users are listed under security settings: right click on the file > properties > Security tab. It should be rated "everyone" in its own right.

  • Why LR4 shows me two folders to an external hard drive?

    Hello.

    So I don't know that I can explain so I tied this screenshot. LR4 shows two external hard drives 'ESF-PHOTO' when it's really only. It has the same folder on the two 20120523_straight_down called on each, but in each case there are 4 images even though it says 3. Two of these images are reversed, and I think that's why it says 3. I tried the update folder location. I tried to synchronize the folder. I tried to remove the top folder, called 20120523_straight_down, which then gets rid of the ESF-top PHOTO. After that I try to add the image missing fourth to the different 20120523_straight_down folder and it adds just this second ESF-mystery PHOTO by car.

    two folders one drive.png

    All this happened after I moved the catalog and images on this external hard drive and run Carbon Copy Cloner to support up to a second disc. Once this is done, I restarted LR4 and began working on an image in PS6. When I closed this image and returned to find the Edit version in LR4 I couldn't find it. Once I found it after searching all pictures with its file name that I saw that there were two ESF-PHOTO files.

    When I have tried all the above troubleshooting I unplugged the backup drive.

    It is a difficult question. Any one guide me through on this one can.

  • Disk utility finds several files and folders after formatting external hard drive

    It is somewhat an Enigma to me. I bought an external hard drive that I wanted to use to store my Time Machine backups. I formatted in Mac OS extended (journaled case-sensitive) without any problems, however, I noticed that disk utility indicated that I had 18 and 59 files (space used = 448,1 Mb)!  I ejected the disc, it reconnected and utility found 64-19 records to disc now! How is that possible? What is going on?  I used the 'diskutil list' command on the Terminal, and I found the following:

    / dev/disk2

    #: NAME SIZE TYPE IDENTIFIER

    0: GUID_partition_scheme * GB 500,1 disk2

    1: disk2s1 EFI EFI 209.7 MB

    2: Apple_HFS disk2s2 backup 499,8 Gb

    I see there are 2 partitions, even if I made a partition during formatting of the drive.  I don't know if this 'normal' or if I'm doing something wrong. I would be very happy any help you can give! Thank you very much!
