Are the boot files always automatically defragmented if normal defrag has been disabled?

I have normal off scheduled defragmentation and usually via a command prompt defrag every week which is fast and complete. Because the normal Defrag is slow and my laptop would probably not be on when the demand. Also unexpected or regular defrag is not compatible with my daily incremental backups.

I believe that on Vista startup files are defragmented... auto every three days this still applies if the normal defrag has been disabled?

I can their defrag via a command prompt... but do I need too?

I discovered a bit more on this issue and it seems that turning OFF scheduled defrag also turns of automatic defragmentation of the boot files.

Registry key

Function HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE_SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Dfrg\BootOptimise

is shown as set to N (no)

I do not bend or change the registry so that this has been done by Vista in response to me turning off defrag... so it seems contrary to what I said earlier, and I need run initialization routine defrag occasionally.

  • where are the audio files stored during recording as a project?

    Where are the audio files stored during recording as a project. The project opens fine on my computer, but when I move to another computer I have missing audio files.

    They are stored in their own folder in the project folder:

    So if you want to move it to another computer, you must copy the project folder, not only of the project folder.

    Hi-

    I stopped using the system restore, I found a better solution, for me, that's what I have to do.
    Then I noticed that several 'file system' 'type' was being created, 12 times yesterday, 3 up to today in the early hours of the morning and stored in they System Volume Information folder, anywhere from 30 MB to 2 GB.
    three of these file names 'file system' 'type' are:

    Hi John,.

    Yes, you can delete the system volume information data if not to use the system restore.

    You will need to give permission to the folder until you delete it.

    There is no kind of protection added by Premiere Pro, so that if anything it is a Mac issue.  My guess would be something to do with permissions.

    Hello

     

    1. have you made any changes to the computer before the show?

    2. What antivirus application is installed on the computer?

    3. What are the different user accounts on the computer?

    This problem occurs if Windows Update has been disabled by one of the following settings:

    · Group Policy

    · System policy
    · Registry

    I suggest you follow these methods and check.

    Method 1: Perform the clean boot and try to install the updates.

    To do this, follow the steps in this link:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

    NOTE: Once you check the functionality, follow the suggestions under steps to configure Windows to use a Normal startup state.

     

    Method 2: Try to turn on the auto update by following the steps in the link below.

    How to configure automatic updates by using Group Policy or of registry settings

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/328010

    Registry warning: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 322756

    How to back up and restore the registry in Windows

     

    Method 3: Turn off the antivirus application and try to download the updates and check.

     

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

     

    Method 4: Perform a full scan of the computer using the following antivirus applications.

    Microsoft Safety Scanner: http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Malicious software removal tool: http://www.microsoft.com/security/pc-security/malware-removal.aspx

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

     

    I hope this helps!

  • Windows xp is hijacked, and even in safe mode, I can not connect. My account has been disabled and I am the owner of the computer.

    It seems that someone else took the administrator account and he has rights that replace the mines on the computer.  Try to reinstall windows xp professional, it tells me nothing, but freezes...
    Try to connect to windows on my account, he tells me that my account is disabled.
    Try to connect through safe mode that come no user name.
    Trying to set up the administrator to log on without password, said that the account has been disabled.

    I am trying to reinstall the Windows XP Professional with the disc I have, but with this gel, I can't.
    I am very discouraged and would like this to be resolved.  I'm on another computer write because I can't even connect to the other.
    It won't do anything when trying to go to the last good known either.
    My copy of Microsoft security essentials would be not updated and I had restarted and can't get back in it is saying I had a Trojan horse and he removed twice, but he was still there.  If someone else gets this problem to not restart or you cannot recover.

    Reinstalling Windows can sometimes be a difficult process and most of the time that it is not even necessary to solve most of the problems.

    In case it is necessary to reinstall Windows XP Pro, it is imperative that you back up all your data first. did you?

    In addition, if a system is compromised or broken, a clean install should be made. This means that you must configure your motherboard BIOS to boot from the installation CD (instead of the usual default, which is the hard drive). The way to do this varies according to the brand and model of your PC.

    Assuming that you have the correct CD for your PC, these instructions should work for you:

    http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html

    http://michaelstevenstech.com/bios_manufacturer.htm

    If you want to help more away from us, please answer the following questions:

    1. What is the make, model and model number of your PC?

    2. assuming you have Windows XP Pro installed on it, what level SP is in?

    3. you have the XP Pro corresponding correct for her installation CD? In other words, if you have an OEM version, you must use a CD of the OEM version. Here again, a commercial version should work as long as it is not already in use elsewhere. What level of SP is the disc in?

    4. you say that you can not connect to Windows, yet you mention that MSE has given you a message. Please specify.

    Finally, once you're convinced that all your important files are backed up and if you want to try the Windows XP system restore (or other methods) before something as drastic as reinstalling Windows, we can give you advice. And then, if damage malware is really bad, it may not be worth it. But if you want to try, let know us.
