Appearing as local drive, removable flash drive!

I bought a new SanDisk 16 gb USB flash drive a few days ago and it does not appear with locking discs. Please give a few solutions that I show as removable drive.

Number of new flash drives is now set instead of removable.  It is due to a new requirement for Windows 8.  Best is to return the drive and buy a not Windows compatible 8.

  • Why two local drives appear on my PC if I have one?

    Why two local drives appear on my PC if I have one?

    It seems to be the partition of 100 MB of the system default, but she appears on 'My PC' or 'computer '...
    I leave it there or what should I do?
    Thanks to all for the replies! :)

    The 100 MB System Partition is created by Windows 7 during installation and it is usually hidden in almost all cases. What might have happened in your computer, it is that, somehow, a drive letter has been assigned to that partition, and this is why it is displayed in the window of your computer. You can delete the associated with the System Partition drive letter on your computer to make this new hidden partition. You must not remove or make changes within this partition, it will leave your computer in the absence of priming.

    To remove the drive letter of the System Partition:

    1. click on Start, type diskmgmt.msc in the search box and press ENTER to open the disk management window.
    2. right click on the partition system booked about 100 MB of size in question and then click change drive letters or paths.
    Note: Be careful here, do not make any changes to the drive letter assigned to the other partitions in the computer, which would be a disaster.
    3. then in the pop box - next up, Select the drive letter assigned to the partition, and then click Remove.
    4. There will be a couple of guests you say that if you remove the drive letter, some programs that rely on drive letter may stop working, you can safely accept these guests. Once you are done by clicking OK in these pop-ups, close all open windows and restart the computer.

    You shouldn't see that partition in the window of the computer now. It will be useful.

  • How to remove the backup files in the rescue and recovery on local drive

    I need more space on my hard drive and for a year have been backup to a drive for expansion.  However, I kept the base and a backup on the local drive. I tried to remove the base backup, since it was listed in "show all the backups" on the "local" drive However, it still appears in 'show all the backups' - in the local drive.  I see now that I actually deleted the 'base' on the USB. I see no way to delete the backups in the local drive. How can I delete the backups to the local disk?

    RNR does support only 1 location of target, in your case, local backup or USB.

    If you change the location to the USB, it will ask "delete backups on Local.  If you say no, it will keep local backups and start on USB. View backups should ONLY list target current place of residence.  In your case, USB.  You said delete Basic, yes he deleted based on USB.

    Go to the RNR, menu, advanced and post a screenshot of the view backups.  Do not use the main pane.

    (1) change the local location.  You can remove LOCAL.  Then replace location USB.

    (2) uninstall the RNR.  This will remove \RRbackups on drive C.  Replace.

    The main panel (simple opinion) may use registry values to list all backups while the Advanced menu should list ONLY the target location.

  • Install lr on and external hard drive or on the local drive?

    Hi again.

    Someone at - it thoughts on installing the LR2 program on an external hard drive to store all the pictures and projects about it too so.  If you do this you just plug the external hard drive into any pc or laptop and have your program and photos with you, even when you're traveling?  If I had to do this where would be the best place to put a back up of all my work to?  the local drive or dvd?   Ive not heard of people doing this, so I wonder if this isn't a good way to do.  Most often, I hear of just using the external dirve for one rear device.

    Thanks for any ideas

    Randy

    Yes, in the application of the LR of the internal (boot-generally that it is starting, which is) is the way to go. There is little difference in safety if your images and your catalogs are on an internal or external: you must have a backup of the image and the .lrcat files. It is much easier on the hard drives on removable media.

  • I have lost my original photos from my local drive if I optimized my iCloud library?

    I moved my photo (900 GB) library on an external drive. The value in pictures new external player as the new library system library. Now when I turn on iCloud it tells me I have to optimize my photos. I'm afraid of losing my originals from my local drive. Optimization of my library will erase my originals from my local computer? I have to delete my old library in iCloud that has already gone through the pain staking the download process (759GB) in order to reuse my iCloud? I try to avoid to keep my computer another 3 months. Simply cross ICloud cannot check the new library with my iCloud library and move on. How can I start again using my iCloud? Please give me some advice or assistance. Thank you

    The value in pictures new external player as the new library system library. Now when I turn on iCloud it tells me I have to optimize my photos.

    What is your external drive only has 1 TB of storage?  You have found the warning because the 900 GB in iCloud and the size of your current library on the external hard drive will not fit on the disc. If you have a disc, use a drive twice the size of your library of Photos, so you will not miss storage in the years to come. Any drive that you use with pictures must have Mac OS Extended (Journaled) file system.

    iCloud library does not know, the pictures are identical. It will download all the photos in the library moved to iCloud and check if they are duplicates. And it only allows you to introduce you, if you use 'Optimize', if the combined size of the photos in iCloud and on your Mac is larger than the available storage.

    And Yes, the "optimize" option can cause some originals will be deleted. It is completely dynamic.  You can turn this option off again directly after that you turned the library on the external drive as your iCloud photo library for re-download all original, and before Photos was able to start optimization. Do it only if you are sure, the library will fit.

    If you do not all projects in your photo library and did not use the function "Faces" and has invested a lot of work by naming the faces, you could simply start with an empty library on your external drive and let the photos to download icloud to the empty library. It will be faster to download again and the merger of the library moved in your library to iCloud. The only downside, the tags of faces will be missing and your books and other projects. If you need to keep a backup copy of the library has moved.

  • How to do a HTM page on my local drive?

    I have HTML static pages on my hard drive that contain my stories I regularly update and publish a story accommodation site via FTP. I have a page of links like this on my desk so I can see my pages locally before I their FTP to the site online. I used to be able to just click on the links to see the pages locally:

       <A HREF="file:///c:/my web sites/my stories/index.htm">
    

    Since last week, Firefox has been blocking my access to these pages and redirects me to Google. I edited this page and changed the links, what worked for a week:

       <A HREF="file:///c:/my%20web%20Sites/my%20stories/index.htm">
    

    Now, Firefox doesn't let me load my pages in all. Should what security settings I change to see my web pages on my local drive?

  • Satellite U400-112: impossible to format the local drive (damaged MFT?)

    Hello!

    I had a pretty serious problem with my HARD drive.
    250 GB HARD drive
    C: 116 GB - NTFS - Windows XP (Vista initially)
    D: 1, 5 GB - NTFS - (Vista Recover?..)
    E: 117 GB - RAW (was NTFS prior to crash)

    Local drive E: MFT have been damaged because of the virus attack (I hope not because of my madness!). It's NTFS, now it's RAW. I got all the necessary data partition with program ZAR, but all my attempts to recover or just the format E: remained unsuccessful.
    None of the defective sectors found on the HARD drive. Standard Windows tool to format the disks fails: 'it's impossible to finish the formatting of E:

    Before this problem with the E: drive, I had several problems with HARD drive. I have never divided re discs, to Partition Magic from the beginning he identified incorrectly. I tried Partition Magic 7 and 8.
    Link: [error screensaver | http://cs1498.vkontakte.ru/u169802/154397/x_3a82b4fb.jpg]

    The problem is that the special programs (I tried "find and Mount") also could not identify partitions to correct the defective MFT. I thought that low-level format can help me, but I heard, that the use of all applications for other producers can probably destroy my HARD drive. Are there only special applications of Toshiba developed for such cases? Or you can advice me something else?

    Thanks for your help!

    P.S. These applications did not help me:
    Find and Mount (can't find the HARD drive)
    Acronis Recovery Expert (does not find the HARD drive)
    OnTrack EasyRecovery Professional (does not resolve the error, but help to recovery data)
    HDD Regenerator

    Thus you get back all your important data?

    I would like to just launch Recovery to restore the HARD drive to its factory condition. If the recovery fails, you can try to delete the partitions with FDISK from a startup MS-DOS disk. Free bootdisks can be found at www.bootdisk.com

    FDISK can also repair a Master Boot Record by running this command: FDISK/MBR
    But it is not 100% reliable, it could cause more harm than good.

  • Local drive: totally empty D?

    Hey!

    I have a HP Compaq laptop. I use this laptop for 4 years. I have 4 local drives.
    (1) local disk: C
    (2) local disk: D
    (3) new Volume: E
    Presario_RP:F 4)
    So, today, I open my computer, and I see that my Local drive: D is empty. He had all my files into it. But now it is empty. When I click it, he asks me if I want to format. I click on Cancel. When I right click on it, the computer does not respond. Then after a while, it does. When I saw his properties, he said that the used space and free space are 0 bytes in size. Since then, my computer is very slow. Sometimes it gets stuck.
    So, I want to know how to recover all my files and how to speed up my computer. Help, please. Thanks in advance. Here is my card:
