An automator workflow is running, and I'm not.

Years, I wrote an Automator workflow to rename the files that I placed on the desktop. Now, I want to get rid of this workflow, but I can't find it anywhere! It runs whenever something happens to my office, and I want to remove it. When it runs, a dialog box appears on the screen, requiring me to give the new file a name; In addition, gear wheel appears in the toolbar. If I click on the spinning gear, he says "DeskTopMove.workflow", which I suppose is the name of the workflow. I always just CANCEL the workflow in the dialog box now.

I searched for each file ".workflow" I have (it's only about 5 or 6 on my computer), and it does not appear. Neither is it a file anywhere called "DeskTopMove.workflow."

I used the Terminal to show all 'hidden' files and did the research above, with the same (bad) results.

Can someone help me get rid of this ghost workflow? Thank you!

Folder Actions ▹ disable folder Actions

3 test cycle. If the problem is resolved and you want to continue to use Folder Actions, you may be able to identify one of them as the culprit, by a process of elimination.

    I have a process that continues replication and creating folders... slow down my computer greatly. 'Demand' is Tlbdkhr.exe, which is supposed to run Google Chrome. The problem is that I have never installed Google Chrome. This just started today. I was able to locate the files and possibly stop the process and the process of replication by changing the name of the application. I deleted all the files and did a reboot.  Everything looked good, and then he started again.

    Don't know how to remove this problem.

  • Scheduled workflow never runs

    I am planning a workflow to run on a schedule.  If I schedule the workflow to run without recurrence, it works fine.  If I have the calendar and add a resurgence, it does not work.  I tried setting the recurrence to be daily a few minutes of "now."  The general tab shows that the next race will be at the time, that I said "today."  Then time passes and I click off the coast and on the general tab, and now he says that the next run will be 'tomorrow' at the time I was clear.  The last course is empty.  No workflow running showed, the only thing I see in the vRO config log file (with debug mode on) is to change the setting of recurrence on the workflow.

    If I delete the parameter of recurrence and the beginning of the operation of a few minutes in the future, the task runs.

    Anyone know what could be going on here?

    Looks like a bug in the vRO client code that can occur if the vRO server and client machines vRO are in different time zones.

    Lets assume that vRO server is in Utc format customer vRO is Utc + 2, which for the moment that it is 20:00 on the client machine (equivalent to 18:00 on the server machine) and you plan the workflows to run at 20:02 (client time, 2 minutes from now)

    • Case 1 - planning without recurrence. Programming code properly compensates for difference of time zones and the workflow is designed to operate at the 18:02 server time (2 minutes from now). Everything works as expected.
    • Case 2 - planning with recidivism. Apparently, there is a bug in the programming code that isn't properly compensate the difference of time zones and the workflow is designed to operate at the server time 20:02 (2 hours and 2 minutes from now). Obviously, this is not correct behavior - the workflow is scheduled and will be executed, but not at the time you expect.

    You can look at the file server.log vRO - there should be a few log statements indicating the hour of real time. something like

    Add "workflowname" task to plan [18:28:31.0 2015-09-07]

  • Upgrade Windows 10, Thunderbird will get no new messages, and Firefox is not running. SOLVED for Firefox by installing (not upgrading to) Win10

    I have a number of programs that do not work after the victory 10 64-bit upgrade. It's Firefox, Thunderbird, Opera, Kies. They launch but apparently do not connect to the internet. I called the Support for my etax pgm taxes, which I installed after the upgrade, they said he runs in Win 10 and suggested the firewall.

    I have the windows firewall and compatible Firefox, but it still does not work after restarting. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled and still does not work. Google Chrome is OK. I have installed the latest version of Thunderbird, does not always connect. I have disabled the windows for the public and the private firewall, will not download mail. Don't send it either. I really don't want to activate the windows messaging client. Thunderbird is still listed as the pgm of e-mail by default.

    David.

    I think you might find that your issue has been the network card that requires an update. Something that has apparently been addressed in this hotfix roll of weeks of Windows 10.

    When I'm on a Youtube video that is running and I want to move to a different tab, Ctrl + < number of tab > doesn't work, is this intended functionality?

    This can happen when the video player (Flash plugin) has focus.
    In this case the plugin consumes all key presses.
    You will need to click with the mouse on the page or in the UI to work keyboard shortcuts.

  • Update of the Firefox Flash 6.0 plugin installs only 50% of update. And then said: I have to close firefox. I close it and it says again he is running and will not update? Why?

    I'm trying to update my flash player plugin. Since mozilla says
    It's expired. I use firefox version 6.0 on a windows 7
    64 bit OS. I'm the normal adobe download and installation process. Don't other applications are running. I install the Update flash. He Initializes then 50%, he says to close mozilla firefox. I close and he always tells me that mozilla must be closed. I go to the Task Manager and mozilla is not currently running. The flash update will not continue he mozilla needs to close when it is already closed. Why? and how to fix this?

    Did you look for firefox.exe Task Manager process tab and plugin - container.exe? You must kill the firefox process and all processes of plugin-container you will find.

    It began to appear in the first inch of each merchant site I visit with the new version, "Congratulations!" Every $5 spent at JCPenney saves you a chance to win a $500 gift card. I have run scans and nothing appears not infected, but I don't get that annoying block in Internet Explorer.

    Your problem can be caused by Malware. You can run and update according to free anti-virus software:

    1. Malwarebytes (free version) - http://www.malwarebytes.org

    2. Spybot Search & Destroy - http://www.safer-networking.org

    3. Spyware Terminator - http://www.spywareterminator.com

    In addition, there are a number of forums, you can use to help get rid you of your infection. It is:

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    Perhaps, you just need to wait for a while for Firefox download.

    Perhaps, it is an extension/plugin slowing your Firefox.

    When I close Firefox in the evening, it closes slowly and uses 50% of CPU. It unloads after several (30? 60?) seconds.

  • HP Deskjet F4240: ink runs and bleeds through stock paper and card

    When I try to print maps of visit or letters with my new Deskjet F4240, ink runs and bleeds through the paper or card stock.  Exit impossible to give my clients because it looks cheap and unprofessional.  I think the problem is the Vivera Ink because I not had this problem in the past using the same paper and paper thick, both with HP printers and other brands of printers and is the first printer I've owned that uses the Vivera Ink.  Are there replacement cartridges that can be used, or what I need to replace the printer by one that doesn't use Vivera Ink?  Thank you.

    If the ink is bleeding in the paper stock or card that it would indicate the driver settings do not match the paper type.  Make sure you select plain paper inkjet media according to the type of paper you have.  If you use apper photo settings on plain paper, you will get too much ink on the page.

    Kind regards
