Added a macro to delete a file to start a shortcut in windows XP

When I click on a shortcut to the program, he starts the currently appropriate program and runs (pretty obvious things, I know). I want to do is to clear a cache file previous start-up businesses by automatically deleting the cache file, then run the program. I think it would be pretty easy stuff and I could do at the time of the BACK, but don't have any idea how to do that with Windows XP, my current operating system.

What program are you want to clear the cache of the and what is the full path of the cache, you do not want to delete?

The best way to do what you want is to create a batch file and place it in your startup folder.

Del "path\file file to delete.

  • What happens if I delete the files in the Temp folder in Windows 7?

    What is happening in the windows--> Temp folder in windows 7, and if I delete the files there, that will be a problem?  I want to free up the disk space of 1.8 G, but can't find any info anywhere of the consequences of deleting these files, what they are for, or how they got there.  Thank you!

    In general, it is safe to delete anything in the Temp folder.  Sometimes, you can get a "Cannot be deleted because the file is in use" message, but you can just ignore these files.

    For safety, do your Temp directory deletion right after you restart the computer.  Sometimes a program installer will put something in the Temp directory it needs to complete the installation after a reboot.  If you restart and wait a bit so that they were, whatever left in the Temp folder should be OK to delete it.

    If you want to be conservative, use the built-in Disk Cleanup tool (type of cleaning disc in the search box).  If you select "Temporary files" as one of the elements to clean (deleted), by default, that Disk Cleanup removes only the files that have not changed in 7 days.

    Hi Allan Cole.

    It seems that these downloaded emails would not have permission to delete.

    You suggest to download and save all emails in a specific folder, and then you can delete or read emails downloaded from this particular file.

  • Cannot delete the file/folder even in Administrator Mode or Mode safe

    I. hate. Vista. Windows XP has NEVER been this difficult to work with!

    I recently installed MagicISO. Didn't like it, so I deleted it. He left behind a small dll file and the folder. I wanted to remove both, couldn't.

    Tried safe mode. FAILED

    Administrator account I tried. FAILED

    Tried both together. FAILED

  • Despite compact records later, I can't delete imported files

    Trying to consolidate email accounts in thunderbird for winxpsp3. With the import feature, I tried to import
    emails to outlook express and choose "all." Well, it has imported everything on my logical disk as a record of e-mail and now I can't delete them. They reappear once I deleted some of them on the next boot or install,
    Java will not erase of it at all. Why it has imported no records email and or in any case can I get rid of these file directories once anmd for all. I even uninstall on 4 different and same versions messed up the folder tree appears always. I would really like to keep usng thunderbird, but it's maddening.

    I stumbled upon the answer... somehow the program had used my drive D:\ logical for local folders "nobody," rather than looking in the D drive for mail folders. It is under this directive wide she added each file D that I got under local folders and couldn't delete all files in the local folders. It wasn't until I have change D to something more specific than ubiquitous inapplicable records finally went and could stay deleted.

  • delete the file or ignore if it is already open

    I have a piece of code that dates back to the time of LabVIEW 7.1 who should write an ascii text file to a server once every 30 minutes.  Each half hour file is the previously published, to which is added another 30 minutes of data and 4 contains more data than does three 30 minutes so I iterate through a file number, 2, 3, 4, etc. and so on...  I write each new file I attempt to remove his predesessor such that in an ideal case there is only a single file sitting there at all times...  However, I want people to be able to open files on this server remotely any time they want to... In LabVIEW 7.1, if I tried to delete a file that was already open, it did NOT generate a stop error show but just went...  I could manually later then go start the file here or there that someone would open during the attempt to delete was made...

    But now I'm running in LabVIEW 2011 there is no the same luxury...  If I try to delete a file that is already open, the code generates an error and wait...  It is bad because nobody is there to answer...  I read another post on the search to see if the temporary files exist, but I don't know exactly what to look for so that people can use one of a slew of programs, reading from Excel to Matlab to WordPad to open these ascii text files...  Surely, there must be an attribute of a file that I can watch that will tell me it is currently open and if so, I can just ignore this deletion and move...

    Bottom line, it is how can I tell that a file on a server is opened by an unknown application on some Office far away?

    Thanks bob...

    Most likely, you are running in wiich auto error handling is enabled by default in new versions of LabVIEW (it did not exist in older versions). Whenever a function returns an error, but the error is not wired, it will appear an error message.

    Make sure that you manage the error in not leaving the error disconnected. (for example just Ingore by wiring up to a limit of structure) so it appears an automatic error dialog box.

  • Delete specific files of a project without deleting

    A common operation in the lab I work in is:

    Take a basic VI and change it to specific experimental purposes. The way we have done in the past is using the "save under...". "and selecting: 'Open additional copy' (and adding this file to the unique project that we use for all our work of LabView; probably a silly thing to do from the outset, only seen one project). However, we recently encountered a few problems with this (surprise, surprise) because a user has modified a Subvi, which was referenced by several rappclc. So, we decided instead start using individual projects and duplicate any relevant hierarchy to avoid changing the common files.

    The first time that we tried to do this, we used "save under...". "and"Double hierarchy,"then save the new files on a new project. However, the duplicate files were added somehow the original project as well. The result is that there are several conflicts that whenever files are responsible for each project. The obvious way to solve this problem is to delete the overlapping of the original project, but I can find no way of simply remove them without deleting the files! This is a serious nuisance. Any ideas anyone?

    RF-

    Thanks for the reply. I guess that's the way of the brute force to go, I was wondering if there was a more generally including remove the individual references, or several files. Thanks also for pointing out the mess of the icon.

  • It is safe to delete the files under C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download

    My C drive is full and I went through the cleaning process several times.  I noticed that all the files day added on drive C under C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download.  Can I safely delete these files?  They add up to 100 to 200 MB per day.

    Hello

    The "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution" folder is where the updates are stored.

    There are views mixed in all areas on the deletion of this file, but my opinion is that if you stop the automatic updates, delete the folder and then restart automatic updates who works and who has worked several times before for me.

  • Delete a file called "wre.exe", now two of my virus scanners will not work and nor does internet Explorer, how to fix?

    I took my computer to the shop twice to fix the same virus, and then I got it again. This time, I decided to try to fix myself because obviously they couldn't do it, despite having taken $200 from me.

    my mother gave me Norton antivirus, and its history has shown me where the file kept showing in taskmanager, so I went there and deleted. the virus seems to have disappeared and to a large extent, my computer seems to work but I can't run microsoft security essentials or antimalware bytes. haven't tried my other programs yet, but I know that I can still read PDF files, and I can see my photos. the icon of internet explore doesn't work, I got in line to say things to try to find the file online. whenever I try to go online, or use one of my two antivirus, it tells me to choose a program to use to open it.

    is there anyway that I can fix this? really get rid of the virus? I can't afford to have this fixed thing again, and of course, they are unable to him anyway.

    If you like not what it was, I think it was called xp antivirus 2012 or something similar.

    in fact, its virus programs not only blocking, his block anything that does not use another program to run, like adobe or realplayer. I am sure that it changed something. I'll try this thing to scan in any case, just to see if it finds anything. If it isn't, I have no choice but to do a complete reinstall of windows.

    is there a risk to the installation of an operating system from an obsolete drive severely? as in will be my computer be infected again until he finally update all the way?

    First of all, you can not delete a file by using the Task Manager. You can choose to terminate a process but cannot remove a file that you have indicated above in your initial post.

    Second, you can't have the two Microsoft Security Essentials and Norton installed on the same machine. Conflict reducing your coverage and possibly even cause a blue screen.

    Thirdly, you are unable to open due to the malware programs change you file associations of executable files.

    Fourthly, you have problems to connect to the internet most likely because the malicious software modified your internet connection settings.

    It will be easy to fix if you follow my instructions carefully.

    With the help of a good working computer and flash drive you mentioned above download the four files below save them on the flash drive.

    XpExeFix.reg

    RKill

    RemoveProxy

    Malwarebytes< it="" doesn't="" matter="" that="" you="" may="" already="" have="" malwarebytes="" downloaded.="" use="" the="" one="" on="" the="" link="" i="" provided.="" it="" has="" been="" renamed="" to="" allow="" it="" to="" run="" on="" infected="">

    Now take the flash drive for infected patients. Open the flash drive. Right-click on XpExeFix.reg and choose merge. Confirm the prompt. You should receive a message that the information has been added to the registry.

    Then, double-click RemoveProxy and run it. Once the operation is completed, you should be able to access the internet. If you are unable to run the file go to the step below and run RKill and then return to this step.

    Then, from the flash drive double click on RKill and choose to run it. It may take a while to complete but, just let it run. You will get a window similar to that of the command prompt and must be informed when the process is complete.

    Once the RKill completed, double-click Malwarebytes and choose to install it. Update to update the installation, then run a full scan. Remove any detected object. If you are unable to update just for some reason any run it.

    Post when you have completed these steps for additional instructions.

  • How can I delete all files stored on my computer quickly without dumping my base and paid for programs?

    I recently inherited a laptop Acer TravelMate 4220 age of 5 year from my mother, who bought his boss. The problem is that the computer is slow. I mean slow. I suspect that there are 1 million files that need to go bye-bye, and shows that I lack or use. Now I'm not what you call a computer expert; actually, I'm far from it. I tried to delete I know to be sure to delete the files, but there are still one bunch of others that I'm afraid to touch. I suspect that either the disk is too full of *, or somehow a virus or two got (I have a Norton Safe Search program installed MOM). Is it possible to safely and quickly clear the files in the computer without sending the programs installed in purgatory? More impotantly, a dummy like me he can do without damage? I thank will accept any I can get help and thanks in advance...

    The best thing for you to do is to completely reinstall Windows.  Really.

    Acer Travelmate laptops came with a hidden partition which will restore the computer to its state of factory costs, including software applications that were shipped with the computer.

    Because this computer was first held by the 'boss', however, it is possible that a COMPUTER service company everything on the hard drive replaced with a picture of the custom business that does not include the Acer erestore.  You'll just have to watch.  Also, of course, all applications that are added by the company will not be restored using the Acer application.
