Can you're not update C:\ in Win 7?

Whenever I try to update the data on my drive C:\ (i.e. root) in Windows 7 I find it impossible, even if I can say that I gave myself plenty of collateral. To be precise, I am to convert a FoxPro to BACK system to run under Visual FoxPro, and I can update files DBF on C:\ in this system is no longer, nor send the 'printed' output of FoxPro in a file to C:\ (if it is true, I'm doing this not for FoxPro, VFP for BACK, which no longer resides on my computer. In addition, since in a DOS window, I can is no longer just EDIT a file on C:\. but apparently the EDIT in a DOS program no longer exists in Win 7 in all.

Should I give up and develop other ways to accomplish the tasks I've done previously by writing to C:\, or is there something that I am on?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you. Yes, I realized I could write to a subdirectory in theory, but in truth, I was a little confused on this issue, because I thought I remembered that a previous attempt to do so had not - maybe a false memory, but it has been strengthened by the fact the everytime I try the DOS "edit" program, I thought that ' 'Edit' is not recognized as a builtin or external operable program or a batch file. I just tried on subdirectories of C and even another hard drive, and I get the same message. This isn't only C:\ where this problem - at least the problem with 'Edit' - occurs. I also checked that I can write subdirectories C, and I can do so by using Visual FoxPro.

My main puzzle was why I can't write to the root directory in Windows 7 when I could do in the past at least through XP operating systems, and you answered that by mentioning the user account control. Is this something that I can change? Is - this specific to standalone PCs I checked this afternoon than a Win PC where I worked (as a contractor), who is on a network, can write to the root of C without problem. And 'Edit' works in a BACK window he so...

BACK and the editing command has been dead for many years for practical reasons.

Disable UAC can be done.
Writing to the root of drive C is not good (pretty sure he never was).
Nothing to do with autonomous area vs.
Is the machine at another location Windows 7 32 bit and that you use 64-bit?

  • Can you do not design 'Collections' and 'Maps' everything first before 'content '?

    Can you do not design 'Collections' and 'Maps' everything first before 'content '?

    You can create cards and put forward that you have content, but at least be content to back up you will not see something useful on the device.

    What to do if I want to uproot just a few items to the prototype of the structure of an application and play with cards/layouts is that I create banners instead of articles. Banners are created quickly and don't have a file .article, yet always behave like the articles for the purpose of maps/layouts. You can even have their points to a URL in order to get some feeling for what content would look like by pointing to things on the web.

    Once I am happy with the prototype I will remove banners and replace them with the content real .article of enforcement.

    When I open the app music on my Apple TV, the section "For You" is not for the most part always showing the recent suggestions from what is shown both on iTunes on my Mac or my iPhone.

    Has anyone found a solution to this? Is there a way to manually update the "For You" section on the new Apple TV?

    -Select the music application and drag up to kill him

    -Return to the home screen and open the music application

  • Desktop HP HPE h9-1150 Phoenix: can you do a update the BIOS of Windows 8 while on a Windows 10 operating system?

    As indicated in the title, you can do a BIOS in Windows 8 update while on a Windows 10 operating system?

    I have a Phoenix desktop h9-1150 and am trying to install a new GPU GTX970. There is no updated BIOS for Windows 10 at this time, but there is an update of my current BIOS 7.07 for Windows 8 OS. Can I do that Windows 8 updated safely?

    Normally the flasher will check to verify the operating system, but I can't on this one.  It does not separate out ROM file, even if it does not check if the operating system you can always extract the file BIOS and flash BACK.  I would try it first in windows.  It will tell you if there is a control in place.

  • IM told that my windows drivers are not updated. What can I do?

    What are windows drivers?

    Friday, June 1, 2012, 15:27:20 + 0000, pablo fzepeda says:

    What are windows drivers?

    You are told by who? Or what?

    A driver is software that interfaces between the material
    and Windows for printers, scanners, video cards, etc., which have been
    written for this version of Windows.  And also note that you need
    different determinants for a 32-bit version of Windows and a 64-bit
    Version.

    It is the manufacturer of the hardware to write and
    available to download these drivers. Especially if your hardware is
    older, it is quite possible that the manufacturer has decided that it is not
    a value of his time and effort to develop drivers for the hardware that it is
    selling more.
    You say that you need updated drivers, but you should not update a driver
    unless the new driver resolves an issue you encounter or adds a feature
    that you need or want. Update a driver when you do not need a new
    the risk of problems.

  • Satellite P300 PSPC4A - BIOS no updates required for Win 7?

    I have a Satellite P300 (PSPC4A-03P01P)
    Currently 2 hard drives, both are partitioned.
    Disc 1 - C and D
    Disc 2 - F and G
    Current operating system on the C drive is OEM Vista 32-bit HP
    BIOS version is V4.20. 05/01/09

    I want to upgrade the Win - 7 HP 64-bit operating system
    I know that this will require a format the C partition.

    In preparation, I downloaded all the drivers for Win 7 64 bit

    My Questions:

    The BIOS will require the update to support 64-bit?

    If partitions D, F and G are left intact, Win-7 64-bit on the C drive will be able to read?
    Or these partitions will also require formatting?

    Thanks for any help

    Hello

    There is no relationship between the BIOS and the operating system. Thus, you need not upgrade Bios for Win 64 bit.

    > If partitions D, F and G are left intact, Win-7 64-bit on the C drive will be able to read?
    > Or those partitions will also require formatting?

    You can install the Os on C: and it will be able to read information on other partitions too.

    If this isn't much of a change, that you need not update BIOS. Continue to use your laptop with pre-installed version. ;)
