Cannot deleight temp files

When I try to delete the temporary files (for example, temp RUN or Run %Temp%) I sometimes get the message.

Cannot remove. Someone else is using the file. Find out who and stop its use.

I'm looking for this info to be able to delete the file. Thank you. Brian

You may be able to track which uses the file via the Task Manager. Process, or through Process Explorer from Sysinternals to Windows:

However, a much easier method to delete this temp location would using CCleaner. CCleaner is excellent in all the waste and cleaning your system time - and it's free:

http://www.Piriform.com/CCleaner

If you decide to try it, by default, that almost everything in Windows Applications and is verified to be cleaned. You must first review the lists (they are compiled by what you have installed) and check/uncheck accordingly.

Then click on analyze to see what will be removed (nothing is deleted when you click Analyze); When the scan is finished you can double-click on (or right click and select view detailed results) of the entries in the list to get more information.

According to the detailed results, you can right click for options such as adding to the list of exclusions if you want the deleted item.

Once that you are completely comfortable with your selections, you can click the run Cleaner button and then OK to put warn before vacuuming will run.

CCleaner has also a registry clean, which I do not recommend the use - unless you are a very experienced user and understand the possible consequences.

    How do I solve this problem

    The tools are not compatible with JDK7. You need to install JDK6 and it must be the 32-bit version.

    If you have several versions of the JDK, you can modify bbwp.properties in the subfolder bin of your SDK WebWorks to include the following text:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_31

     


    You would update the JDK version to match your own, but note that this is the SEO Program Files (x 86); the path 32-bit installations. This way you can have several JDK if you need, but the command bbwp must reference the appropriate JDK.

    In short, he must be JDK6 and it must be 32-bit.

  • Photosmart C4780 installation fails at the "system cannot find the file specified."

    My problem began simply with your printer, a HP Photosmart C4780, who has always had a wireless connection and would not print.  Initially, the checked network connection fine control panel of the printer.  I ran a Microsoft printer troubleshooting, which found a block in line print and authorized.  The first test page print, but did print the "internal test page.  I did not understand what it meant, so I looked for help on the HP site.

    I ran the HP print and Scan Doctorand he suggested I have reinstall the driver.  I have downloaded and saved the current HP (PS_AIO_06_C4700_USW_Full_Win_enu_140_175.exe) and then uninstalled the existing driver.  When I tried to install a new, a window pops up saying "the system cannot find the file specified," with only a single box for click that simply says "OK".  The installation went through 'examining installation options', after entering "check updates, download updates, install updates" and then it was all in "audit system", who jumped out of the window "file not found" upwards, and when I clicked 'OK', the installation window as well as the error message box simply disappeared.  Which I suppose is the path to the file is under the window, but it didn't fit so he showed not the end.  What I read was "C:\Users\... \Local\Temp\7zS588E\Setup\.\Setup\hpzpnp40...»

    I found a topic on the same printer model for the same problem in the forum, which offered this hotfix:

    You must first complete a level 3 of the software uninstallation. I've included the steps below to do this.

    1. press the Windows key and the letter R
    2. type %temp%, and then click OK
    3. open the 7z folder (a more recent if there are multiples)
    4 open the util folder
    5 open the folder of the ccc
    6. double-click on the Uninstall_L3

    Once you have completed the Uninstall_L3, delete all of the items listed in the temp folder. Note, you will not be able to remove all the elements, please ignore those that do not. Then please empty the trash and perform a clean boot. I've included the document «How to perform a boot in Windows» If your computer does not request it, restart your computer.

    Once your computer is back, you must reinstall the printer software. You can do this either by using the Setup CD, or by downloading the software.

    I did what was suggested, until he got to the point where it says it was the case recommend not removing any more items if I had intended on using the HP Officejet printer (Yes, I have a second HP printer connected to the network) anytime in the future.  Not really understand how it all works, I decided to stop what I was doing, so unfortunately it has not solved my problem.

    Do I need to uninstall both printers HP before I can reinstall a?  And if I do that, is there a reason that I wouldn't be able to reinstall the two printers?  Looks like I'm asking trouble.  Bottom line... I can not install the driver.

    I tried to install the full versions and the driver base and still get the same result.

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 - 3100t for computer laptop, running Windows 7 Edition Premium, version 6.1.7601 family service pack 1 64-bit.  I have not installed new hardware or software.  This printer has always had a wireless connection.  The router I'm using is a Netgear 54Mbps WGR614 v6 (provided by my cable company) and the network includes not only my laptop and the Photosmart printer, but also desktop ASUS, HP printer, an Officejet 6300 series (used only for printing graphics and photos via a wired to the router) and a chip on Vizio TV.  I use Norton 360 first Edition and disabled the antivirus auto-protect when I downloaded and tried to install the driver.

    Help, please!  And thanks in advance for your time and your attention.

    Oh, Jamieson, it worked!  I can print again!  A massive amount of thanks and congratulations to you.

    I couldn't believe it when he actually passed the point where it normally would stop the installation, but then almost at the end, upward jumped «Fatal error during installation»  My excitement sank into a depression.  He said while the installation was not successful and he needed to collect information in order to diagnose the fault.  I looked at what has been collected, and it was more or less gobblety-* beep * for me.  There was a code of 19714722 error condition, if that means anything.

    Then he placed on my desk, the "Error of Installation HP - Windows 7.hta" file and instructed me to do away with the current window, restart, and then open the file and move forward with these guidelines.  I did and he basically had me to restart the computer once again, and then turn the printer off, unplug the printer, then unplug the router, wait 30 seconds and then plug the TAA - DAA and back in, I'm back in the business of printing.

    Thank you very much for your time and patience.

    All the best to you and yours!

  • LaserJet MFP M125nw Pro: #2 cannot install LaserJet MFP M125nw Pro because of the error "the system cannot find the file specified."

    Hello

    I struggled in the last 2 days to install my new all in one Pro LaserJet MFP M125nw. I tried almost all the stuff Google and this community offered under the heading "the system cannot find specified file", without success. My frustration is huge because I'm not really a novice when it comes to solve similar problems.

    Here is what I do and what is happening:

    I downloaded the latest version of the complete software for XP HP offers through their Web site. I tried to install the drivers through the install wizzard, then manually (used for the files in the folder 7ZXXX in the directrory temp) but no matter what I do, I get the same error again and again. In fact XP recognizes the printer and the scanner, it installs even drivers for the scanner and it works but after maybe 50 attempts in different ways, XP couldn't install the printer driver.

    Here are a few screenshots:

  • How can I remove the Photoshop Temp File for good? (PS CS 4)

    Hello

    I have a problem on my PC. Since this Saturday if gives me the error "could not complete because full discs...» »

    I have read every blog/forum and even called the call center of photoshop without any help...

    Some of the solutions I've tried are the following:

    -Deleted all my Temp files (as I normally do every week)

    -Defragment my hard drives (done weekly)

    -Deletion of all unused software

    -Bought and installed a new hard drive (1 TB) to use as storage for this Temp file

    -All cleared the Cache and Cookies on my Browser

    -Use of the memory of Photoshop to 70%

    -Uninstalled Photoshop (PC Shutdown) and then re-installed and the Temp file is always there and it is much bigger than before

    Basically, I tried everything I could.

    What happens is that this Photoshop Temp 12389772616 file (44.6 concerts and increasing) cannot be seen when Photoshop is active or running and can not be deleted under these circumstances. When Photoshop is closed, it disappears as well. I don't know what else to do about it. When I re - allocate what is called a virtual file/disk to another hard disk, Photoshop slows and crashes more... I was thinking of buying the new Photoshop CS 5, but I am now, NOT wanting to take the risk, but it has served me well for a year so far.

    : NB is there any way I can reduce the size of this file virtual (Temp) or completely remove?

    My PC Specs are:

    Processor - Dual Core (2.3 GHz)

    Operating system - Windows 7

    Hard disk space - 1 TB, 500 GB and 250 GB x 2 (space is not a problem)

    Graphics - 8800 G - Force (512 MB) with GPU (PCI Express)

    Can anyone please help me or guide me on how to this mess?

    But then I have yet to find a problem when you open a new document (1000 x 1000 and above). Photoshop gives me the same "...". scratch disks full"or just simply, it lags behind and does not open.

    Just to clarify; is your main disk Scratch, named in Edit > Preferences > Performance an internal drive? If so, what is available on this subject?

    Is between "ideal" recommended RAM allocation in Edit > Preferences > Performance ?

    File slow opening is perhaps due to the default printer. This is a known bug and has been reported several times in the forum.

    The solution, weird as it may seem, is to make a printer driver generic default printer. If you do not, you can download it here:

    http://www.Adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=pdrv&platform=win

    I hope that helps some of ths.

    Oh yes and try resetting your preferences (again) as described in the FAQ.

    http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/375776?TSTART=0

    You must physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if you use the Alt, Ctrl, and shift, don't forget you get a confirmation dialog box.

  • Click on the link-get "Windows cannot open the file" select a program?

    After clicking on link get "Windows cannot open this file" have to manually "selecta program programs installed" Firefox appears as a choice and I double-click. How can I solve this problem / eliminate these extra steps
    ? Thank you Joe
    I am running Windows XP, MS office Outlook 2007

    Is it a link in an e-mail message in Outlook? This problem arises from time to time.

    While Firefox can usually set himself as the proper application to open the URL, you click in other programs, settings are sometimes blur or do not take. This article has tips to solve this problem: setting Firefox as the default browser does not work - what to do. Anything there help?

    If the problem persists, is there something special about how you start Firefox? For example, you have this launch in a security 'sandbox' or virtual machine? You have all the command-line options set to allow several simultaneous sessions of Firefox, or call the Profile Manager? If none of this sounds familiar to you, the answer is probably not.

  • Can I prevent auto download of temp files?

    What I would like is for downloads to start after I have decide where they will go. I don't want a part temp file built in a folder mobile or whatever. I use windows and this seems to be a problem in all versions. Basically, I would come back where my download will be saved and then for firefox start download file room and all. At the very least, I want to foreshadow where the temporary file is stored for security reasons, but would be better to send it to a place of my choice every time.

    You are welcome

  • "Extraction failure: cannot open output file" error message when installing new drivers

    Hello, I am trying to install new drivers for my HP Photosmart C4385 printer.  I downloaded the complete drivers of features for Windows XP 32-bit, and when I start to install (extract), I get the error message:

    Extraction failed

    Cannot open output file

    And the process ends.  He arrived at about 85% extraction every time.

    No idea why?  I called HP, but no longer under warranty they wanted money, which I think as absolutely ridiculous - not even give me basic support?  Poor, poor customer service.

    Hi GIJeff12,

    Temporarily disable any AntiVirus/Antispyware software.

    Cut the installer on your desktop then click on the Start Menu, click computer, double-click on the C: drive and paste the installler here.  Now try a right click on the installer for your printer, choose 7-Zip and choose Extract the files, and then click Ok.  If the installation program extracts now correctly, follow these steps.  If it does not extract, let me know.

    Disconnect your printer from the PC.  Restart your PC.

    Open the newly extracted folder and double-click the setup application to start the installation (the installation application will probably have the same icon as the original installation software that you downloaded).  Connect the printer to your computer when you are asked.

    If it was a success, re - enable your security software.

    Best wishes

    Newbie on this forum. I just bought the i5 8 GB of RAM Windows 8.1 Kira Ultrabook, a great little machine.

    I have a SanDisk 64 GB flash drive that has about 20 GB on it in a dozen files. These folders and the content can be seen by my Windows 7 PC, even my mobile phone and Tablet Tower.

    However, the Kira cannot see both files, even if in the properties of the drive, he sees the space correctly. Turned on all folders and no difference.
    My wife has a 32 GB flash - no problem.

    I reformatted the flash disk, run a virus on the disk and the Kira. The Kira can someone verify the maximum size flash can see it please? I can't find it in any documentation.

    The appearance of the folder is not in your laptop model or your system!

    I recommend you to check some common view windows Explorer settings:

    (1) to see the hidden files and folders reported as
    Click the view tab, and then click Show hidden files and folders.

    (2) to display all the system files that are usually hidden from view.
    Click on the view tab, and then clear the Hide protected operating system files check box.

    I spent hours looking on the net and there is no answer. I have nothing showing in the programs to uninstall.

    Thank you

    > Oddly enough it loaded on an old pc easily!
    Hello

    This means that drivers are ok and that there must be something wrong with the system pre-installed on Equium U400.
    How to proceed?

    It is important that you don't would NOT connect the Dynadock to the laptop before installing the software and drivers was not finished.
    Therefore, you need to install the software first. Then after new reboot connect the Dynadock to portable and installation would end the next steps.

  • Windows Media Player cannot play audio files

    Hi, I have Toshiba laptop, this is my baby, and all of a sudden I can't play sounds! When I click to play a song in windows media player, it says:

    Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with the audio device. It might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it can be used by another program, or it may not work properly.

    I tried everything and I'm on my last nerve! Basically, I'm rubbish with computers, I do not understand this at all, I followed all the ways suggested by the section 'aid' in my computer and I can't always listen to 'The Feeling!' Please help, I'm going crazy here!

    Yes my friend. The computer world is really not easy to understand, and sometimes I wish that I could no longer live the island of computer.
    but you know, the development never stop.

    OK, now your problem; have you checked the Device Manager?
    You don't see any yellow exclamation next to the sound card?

    I think that you should first try reinstalling the audio driver. Of course, it s a very tips but especially it works essentially ;)

  • PAINT cannot open .odt files

    I created a list of games won in a certain category for pleasure and saved it on my USB flash drive and several times have opened to make sure that I am not a game I already won.

    Today, it is not open.  He reads THAT PAINT cannot read odt. files.  I have Open Office.  Now, yesterday I did something to the Open Office draw and tried to save it to the images in my library.  He saved very well and was open, but it was closed for all other programs and applications.  Paint, fresh paint and of course sky drive, but in the State closed so that no photo program effects could open no more.  I understand all that, so I deleted the drawing.  I mention this as an example of my use of odt files and an attempt to open something.   It didn't involve my flash drive.

    I have two other flash drives, I tried to open it and he opened them all except odt. files.  I will reiterate, all 3 have worked very well.

    Why, when I opened them tells it that PAINT is unable to open these files, when you're leading Explorer, I open my flash drive in?

    Moved from feedback

    Original title: can't open the Flash drive

    You will find support for Open Office (which is not a Microsoft application) here: www.openoffice.org/support
