Backup the files when you are installing 'clean' (Vista to 8.1)

Hello

I am upgrading to windows vista using a DVD 8.1. I understand that I have to perform a clean installation, which does not save my files or installed programs. I have not currently external storage capacity to back up all my files (around 50 GB).

Is it possible to back up my files in a 'safe' place on the hard drive of my computer?
or did anyone know of an internet service that I could use?

Thank you

Hello

You do not save the data in the same hard disk you want to upgrade an operating system on.

External hard disks very cheap to buy these days

See if this helps you:

"Upgrading to Windows 8.1 of Windows Vista or Windows XP"

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/upgrade-from-Windows-Vista-XP-tutorial

Back up your data

Since you will not be able to keep all the files, settings or programs when you upgrade to Windows Vista or Windows XP, we recommend that you back up all the files and locate any record program installation (or purchase confirmation email) before the update.

You can transfer files before upgrade you by copying them to an external hard drive, Flash DRIVE or CD and then moving them to the desired location on your new PC. Remember that the drive or disc has enough space to contain all that you want to move. If do not want to use an external hard drive, Flash DRIVE or CD, you can move your files to OneDrive to have all of your files in one place and have the latest version on your PC. For more information, see getting started with OneDrive.

See you soon.

  • Delay of the dialog 'Copy the file' when you drag a file to a folder that already contains.

    Delay of the dialog 'Copy the file' when you drag a file to a folder that already contains.  The dialog box only appears when that I disconnect.  In fact this problem can seriously mislead the user. The file has been copied to or not? This is a serious shortcoming of the operating system.
    A similarly delayed dialog box is to join files on a send to the recipient of the message.

    What is the cause of the delay? Dialog boxes are not under other windows - they break on screen as I log out.

    When I drag AGAIN the same file in the same folder, then I get a message that "the action cannot be completed because the file is open in another program.  (No doubt the program who was trying to copy in the first attempt and waits for a response to the dialog box may not show me!)

    Lorien, thanks for your response.
    A lot of time and effort was exercised in an attempt to find out WHY. I wanted to not just fix the symptoms. It concerned me greatly as a basic function of the operating system does not work. He was not fit for purpose. In the end I found that a third-party application compromised of WINDOWS VISTA 32-bit operating system. If an operating system can not reliably inform the user that an operation is successful or not, it is worthless. In the case above, I didn't move the files was a success (no response required) or the delayed response until I signed.

    In addition to the original problem, there was the following problem: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistanetworking/thread/24068518-31e0-4b23-823b-d54882792301 where "send to..." 'Recipient' disable the context menu in Explorer for JPG does not or not broken.

    Finally, I figured out the following error had something to do with my problems:

    Description:

    So I downloaded the MS debug tools and confirmed my suspicion of dllhost.dll using REGEDIT to set debugging on that.
    To cut a long story short, it's DivX 7.2 which caused me grief.  In particular, the file DivXDecH264.ax 'has an access violation - code C0000005 (first chance).  It has been autonomous in DivX Plus DirectShow Filters.     Thus, when it has been deleted (starting other Articles to original install DivX) through Control Panel of configuration/programs and features my system worked perfectly well.

    I know SFA on the architecture of Windows but why was this DivX file loading and cause an access violation whenever I used the windows Explorer?  How an operating system may fail in a basic function of by a third party issue?  There are some newspaper where this access violation was recorded?  It was only possible to identify it in debugging?

  • ADF: How to get the path of the file when you use component InputFile

    Hi all

    I use jdeveloper 11.1.1.5.0 version.

    in my case, I created program Mail Client mail where I used the ADF InputFile component for attach file mail.

    but problem is this return path only component InputFile from the file (only the filename get)

    and in my mailer class DataSource uses the full path name of file access.

    UploadedFile uploadfile=(UploadedFile) actionEvent.getNewValue();
         String fname= uploadfile.getFilename();//this line only get file name.
    

    so, how can I get the full path using adf InputFile component or any other way to respond to my request.

    Thank you

    Manish

    Try this (I did not, so I can't promise it will work):

    MimeBodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart(uploadFile.getInputStream());
    messageBodyPart .setFileName(uploadFile.getFilename());
    messageBodyPart.setContent(multipart);
    

    It does use the inputStream from the downloaded file as the content of the file attached. You shouldn't need a full path, since you're not going to use a file object to provide the content.  And it shouldn't be necessary to define the DataHandler.

    But if that doesn't work, I go back to my first answer.  Use uploadFile.getInputStream () to get the inputStream from the downloaded file, create an outputStream to write the file to the file system of the application server.  Then you have a file with a known path that you can subscribe to the DataHandler.  You can delete the file when you're done with him.

  • How can I reduce the size of the file when you save a psd in pdf format

    I have a psd with graphics and text, it is 8.5 x 11, 300 dpi

    I flatten the image and go to save as .pdf file I uncheck all options in general.

    Compression, I tried a dozen different combinations and the way I found to get a document that is not pixelated or blurred is to use JPEG 2000 > lossless or jpeg > maximum.

    So I have a document of high quality but the file sizes are approximately 900 KB.

    I downloaded the documents of others of the exact same type and size (8.5 x 11, 300 dpi) that I have seen in Photoshop, they aren't pixelated or blurred and their file sizes are 300 KB or even less than 200 KB

    How do do that?

    Delete all layers used, invisible.

    Zip compression is sometimes better than the jpg compression (in the pdf output settings). Zip is lossless and it works best with a color not degraded or not images.

    Flatten the image before saving it to pdf format can reduce the size of the file, if you use the jpg compression.

    See a preview of your pdf file and we can comment further on how to reduce the size of the file.

  • Why Lightroom will not save the file when you use the image Capture?

    When you work with video in Lightroom 5, whenever I press "Image Capture", I get an error message that says: "cannot save the file." I tried this on several video files, and I get the same message. Video files are. MOV files. I can't understand why this is happening!

    I had this same error message. I solved it when I moved the video file on the hard disk internal to the computer, and then it worked perfectly. He always gave the error message when I used an external video file from my hard drive. There for a long time until I tried this. No one answered this problem in forums that I could find.

  • What is the setting on a laptop to be able to close the cover when you are connected to a monitor?

    After a catastrophic situation on my laptop, I got the disc re formatted and reloaded a new operating system.

    Previously, I had the configuration of the laptop so that when I closed the lid, it remained running so I can use my external monitor.

    Now when I close the lid, the laptop switches mode pause.

    I know there is a place to set up, but I'm not.

  • Control the duration/length of the file when you add it to the composition

    Hello

    This was bugs me for a while and feel that there is probably an easy fix for this.

    When I drag and drop a file (image, video, etc.) in the project to the composition/timeline panel, AE automatically decides that the length of the file is that of the whole of the compositions. Much of the time I want this file to be only say 10 seconds long while the whole composition may be 60 years for a long time. I know that you can drag and drop the file into the current-time indicator, it will still be long in the 1960s in this case however. So I have to 'manually' cropping the length of the layer.

    Is there a shortcut keyboard or something you can do with markers to decide the length of the file/layer before/while drop you in the composition?

    I use CS6.

    Thank you!

    You can set the time always in import options in the preferences.

  • Visible = "true" and partialtriggers of the problems when you are using "necessary".

    Hi, I think that I have not had my coffee today, but is it possible to have the following?

    Panelformlayout with a selectOneChoice and three inputText elements. "Visible" from each inputText attribute is based on the value selected in the selectOneChoice. The selectOneChoice a autosubmit = true and each inputText has the selectOneChoice as a partialTrigger. It all works fine, until I try to do the required selectItems = true. The hide-dynamic stops working, and the entries are marked as empty (but the selectOneChoice shows the new value).

    I tried to play with the addition of additional checks for the indicators 'immediate' and 'compulsory', for example, required = "#{pageFlowScope.testBean.requiredSet and pageFlowScope.testBean.showVal1}" but that seems to make no difference. " Someone at - it ideas?

    Hello

    The behavior is as expected: you make a value of 1, the value 2 and 3 value required and you autoSubmit on the selectOneChoice. Thus, when you make a selection, value 1, 2 and 3 of the value value are tempted to submit because of the partialTrigger. But since they are required, the validation is triggered.

    No, the validation is thrown in a different phase. The selectOneChoice is immediate and his calls renderResponse ValueChangeListener then the validation phase is never executed. It would be the case if the 3 values were also immediate, but it is not so.

    Nick Haralabidis wrote:

    If you don't want the postings through the Select and always have value 1, 2 and 3 of the required value value, follow these steps:

    (1) remove all partialTriggers of the jsf page

    (2) linking the panelFormLayout to support bean as in:


    Binding = "#{pageFlowScope.testBean.panelMain}" > "

    (3) add a valueChangeListener to the selectOneChoice as in:


    value = "#{pageFlowScope.testBean.selectValue} '"
    autoSubmit = 'true' immediate = "true".
    valueChangeListener = "#{pageFlowScope.testBean.onSelectionChanged}" > "

    (4) in your valueChangeListener add a partialTarget in the Panel as in:

    {} public void onSelectionChanged (ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent)
    AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance () .addPartialTarget (this.panelMain);
    }

    I tested it and it works :)

    Yes, it's another way to do it.

  • How to keep the spaces outside the files when you drag and drop them in a .bat file.

    I have a bat file, where I run a powershell script passing one argument which is a folder name. I added the file beats in my office, so I could just drag and drop a folder in the Explorer on the bat file.

    Works very well. With the exception of a killer detail. When I drag and drop a folder that has spaces, the process does not receive the full path. Space is causing the script to fail. Thus, for example, I can't drag & drop c:\program files\ in the bat file.

    Is there some setting in which case I can force drag & drop to use filename not spaced? Why don't the OS automatically in the argument with the quotes around it?

    In a command environment that it is practical common to surround with quotes of files names. If the names contain no spaces, then double quotes can be omitted. That is why your batch file should read

    PowerShell.exe myscript.ps1 "%."

    That depends on your definition of 'easy '...

    The HTML5 File interface can be used to access date in browsers supportthe file was last modified.

    1. Add a hidden page that contains the file download point (P6_FILE_DATE in this example).

    2. create a dynamic action of change on the file upload question (P6_FILE):

    Event: Change

    Selection type: Agenda

    Region:

    Real Actions

    Action: Run the JavaScript Code

    Fire on Page load: NO.

    Code

    console.log('Get file modification date:')
    var fileItem = $x('P6_FILE');
    if (window.File) {
      if (fileItem.files.length > 0) {
        var file = fileItem.files[0];
        if (typeof file.lastModifiedDate !== 'undefined') {
          console.log('...lastModifiedDate for file \"' + file.name + '\": ' + file.lastModifiedDate);
          apex.item('P6_FILE_DATE').setValue(file.lastModifiedDate);
        }
        else {
          console.log('...browser does not support the HTML5 File lastModifiedDate property.');
        }
      }
    }
    else {
      console.log('...browser does not support the HTML5 File interface.');
    }
    

    If the browser has support for the File interface and lastModifiedDate property, the date, the file was last modified will be presented in the P6_FILE_DATE article in the form:

    Fri Jul 17 2015 10:43:44 GMT+0100 (GMT Daylight Time)

    You can analyze and convert your data load process to obtain a TIMESTAMP or DATE value according to the needs.
