  • Cannot delete files from the Recycle Bin

    Hello

    I'm unable to access my trash, everythime I click on the folder, it says windows Explorer has a problem, then said restarting windows.

    And the window just closes, it is there anyway to delete the files from the trash bin other than to go to the folder it self.

    Here is an article on how to repair a trash corrupted in Vista: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/131294-recycle-bin-corrupted-cannot-delete-file-folder.html.

    It restarts if you left or do a right-click on the icon or both?  Here are a few ways to empty it by using two methods:

    1. On the desktop, right-click on the Recycle Bin.
    2. Then click the Empty trash to empty its contents.
    3. You will be asked if you are sure that before it permanently deletes the files.
    4. If you're absolutely sure, then click Yes to clear the contents of the Recycle Bin.
    5. Alternatively, you can double-click the Recycle Bin to open and examine its contents.
    6. And then on the file menu, click empty the Recycle Bin.
    7. After confirmation, Windows Vista will be empty all files from the Recycle Bin.

    Go to control panel / customization / Desktop Icons and remove the trash, click OK and close.  Then go back and add the trash.  See if the new basket has the same problem.

    Here is a program that you download that adds a command to empty the trash to the command line if all that you need to do is type of the command in the box search now and it will happen. http://itsvista.com/2007/01/itsvista-tip-23-empty-vistas-recycle-bin-from-the-command-line/.

    I hope this helps.

  • Cannot delete files to the trash (Recycle Bin access denied)

    System: Windows 7 Ent SP1 x 64, i7 930, 24GO RAM with all updates

    When I try to delete files in Windows Explorer, I get the following error (most of the time, but not always):

    Window with the title 'Recycle Bin access denied' and the message

    " cannot be moved to the trash. Do you want to permanently delete it? »

    I can then permanently delete the file, even if I sent to the trash.

    I tried the following (nothing works):

    -checked to see if the file is locked with Process Explorer (find handle or DLL)-it is not (and it can be removed permanently)

    -deleted all the recycle bins on all drives & restarted. New recycling bins have been created, but it did not help.

    -changed of owner of baskets and all files as (with the takeown command). Corrupt system baskets complained, emptied their and restored to their previous state. This did not help the primary problem.

    -set the maximum size to the size of the disk on all baskets. It has no effect on the main problem.

    -J' also checked the security for the folders tab $RECYCLE. BIN on all readers and define "Full control" for users. SYSTEM and administrators had already 'Full comtrol. This did not help also.

    What is strange (and new), is when I open the Recycle Bin, the files are always considered to be "Tiles" (which I did not). If I put it in 'Détails', the change is not permanent - the next time I open the Recycle Bin, the files are showed once again as "Tiles".

    What can I do to be able to delete (all) files via the Recycle Bin?

    Thanks Mike for the response, but none of the methods helped. There was no malware and even in safe mode, I could not delete files to the Recycle Bin. In addition, the original administrator account could not delete to the Recycle Bin.

    But I think I found the culprit:

    Apparently, this problem showed that in the downloads folder, to which I had many junctions (to be easily accessible). Due to lack of space on the C: drive, I remembered that I have moved through properties-> location on a disk with more space. Instead of the old folder in C:\Users\ downloads I put a junction pointing to the new location.

    Now, I had old junctions pointing to C:\Users\personal, which in turn was a junction pointing to a new location. Registration/creation/look at one/etc files in folder downloads accessible through 2 junctions was of course OK, but delete somehow was not able to delete files to the Recycle Bin. When I fixed the remaining junctions to point directly to the new location of the download folder, delete started working OK again.

    Summary:

    Delete the file (SHFileOperation?) is not able to use the trash, if the file is accessible via junction 2 points (or more?).

  • Deleting files from the downloads folder

    Deleting files from my downloads folder delete them will form my laptop?

    The downloads folder is mainly a temporary store. What happens after the download depends entirely what they are and what you were doing after download.

    Program installers will almost always unpack and create directories elsewhere on the disc in order to remove them from downloads does not remove the actual program.

    By default, zip files will create a folder extracted in downloads and will be deleted if the folder is empty.

    Photos, documents, music, etc. be elsewhere on your drive if you moved them. As the default drag and drop function within the same drive is move not copy if they are still there, there is a strong possibility that they are the only copy.

    I don't know if you will be able to do this before your flight, but the drive must be partitioned and formatted, reformatted, or scanned for errors of NTFS file allocation table with repairs enabled. Depending on the size of the disk, this could take some time. You can also check statistics of SMARTDRIVE with a utility like Crystal Info disc to see if it is a failure.

    If you do not drive Professional recovery tools available, the native CHKDSK will do in a pinch.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

    -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
    -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
    -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
    -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
    -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

    You can use an application that scans your system for the log files and temporary files and use it to get rid of those who:

  • Deleting files in the prefetch folder

    I'm having a minor problem with my antivirus that says it was deleted 3 cookies but if I run the scan again, it always comes with the same 3 cookes and then solved said.  A Norton tech support person deleted temporary files and wants to delete everything in the windows prefetch folder. I did not allow that to happen unless I get confirmation of this forum that I do not have anything at risk by doing this? Thank you.

    Two points:

    1. you can simply be to cookies again by going to a
    particular web site.

    2. using Norton anti-virus? In my opinion and that of many of
    others of us here, it's the worst available security software. I have
    strongly recommend that you replace it with something better.

    For an anti-virus program, I recommend eSet NOD32, if you're ready
    to pay for it. If you want a free anti-virus, I recommend one of the
    three of the following:
     
    Avira
    Avast
    Microsoft Security Essentials
     
    You also need anti-spyware software. I recommend that you download and
    (both freeware) to install MalwareBytes AntiMalware and
    SuperAntiSpyware.

  • Deleting files in the AppData folder.

    I uninstalled Google Earth because it causes problems and eat hard disk space cache files.   However, Google Earth and Google EarthPlugin files records still exist in a folder AppData/Local low/Google.  Files in these folders combined occupy more than 256 GB of hard drive space.  Can I simply delete these two shirts without causing problems for the rest of my Windows operating system?  The folder AppData/Local low/Google would stay in place.

    Hello

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forums.

    Yes, you can go ahead and delete the folders associated with Google Earth.

    You can also check out this link to see "Delete files using Disk Cleanup".

    If you want to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, use disk cleanup. It removes temporary files, empty the Recycle Bin, and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need.

  • Help! Deleting files in the local folder removes the Mac HD files.

    After having "achieved" remote folder together, all folders on my desk and all the folders and files related to them (in thousands) appeared in the files of my Local folder Panel. And each of them had a character more next it. Worse, deleting one of these files delete the actual file to my desktop and Mac HD. What can I do?

    The + means that it is a folder, click on it to see the files that it contains.

    DW does not store the files, just some organizes and works with the files on your desktop, so to delete a file in DW it will remove your HD. This is the expected and correct result.

    When you define a site, you must create a folder root for your site to store files (do not use your desktop folder). If you do not create a folder of root to work from, I could see all your office supplies including accidentally in your site. If this is what happened, you need to redefine your site: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-dreamweaver-cs5/gs01-defining-a-new-site/

    Everything that was deleted should be restored from a backup, if that's what is happening.

  • Sudden CPU hogging + cannot delete files on the desktop

    I was with earlier FL Studio to make music, then I exported a bunch of files .wav (as separate channels) to my office. Now, there are 14 ".wav" files on my desk I have is no longer necessary. When I try to highlight all remove, a dialg box opens saying "ready to remove" then below, he has time to outbound... Calculation... and this box stays on forever without change. I try to put an end to the session, had not responding alarm and needs to restart windows Explorer. I try to delete one by one, same thing. I tried to remove/change any other file as these 14 .wav files, they all deletions or works normally, no worries. I even deleted a ".midi" file exported from the same FL Studio software without problem, which begs the question. Why can I not delete/modify(move, copy, chk properties) these 14 .wav files. Looks like Windows Explorer crashes whenever I try to delete them. Right-click on one of the files, and then click Properties, nothing happens. I tried several times after restarting Windows, same thing. Another question that occur almost at the same time, it's that I noticed my cpu (Athlon II x 4 @2. 8 GHz) has been constantly in use about 60% (on all 4 cores). For comparison in normal operation, running a demanding application such as Call of Duty 4 game uses as much (~ 60% I checked) resource CPU. Before that, when I check my cpu just after startup, it uses 0-2% now after starting, using 50-75% CONSTANTLY immediately even during moments of rest. When I check the process, a call app "dllhost.exe alias COM Surrogate" has listed 25 under CPU constantly while all other open processes are considered to be 00 or 01 under the same parameter. I tried ending the process both the process of the "dllhost.exe" tree, but it starts immediately with the same listed 25 under CPU and my CPU resource still used up to about 60%. This is all very curious because they all seems to happen at the same time and without precursor of actions/mistakes. Someone help me please to solve these problems or at least let me know what could possibly cause these symptoms.

    My specs: CPU Athlon II 630 x 4 @2. 8 GHz, RAM 8 GB DDR3 SDRAM 1333 MHz, Nvidia 9600GT GPU, Momentus XT hybrid total HDD(7200rpm/4Gb SSM) 250 GB (112 GB free), 64-bit OS Windows 7 (latest updates installed), DirectX11

    Yes, my system problems have been resolved. Sorry for taking so long to get back to you guys. After working with the engineer for a few days, we finally found a way to remove the files and stop hogging it, but it is a partial correction because the primary cause remains until Microsoft release a patch for this problem, I was not billed by the Department because he is an anomaly in the Microsoft System in addition to the cooperative solution approach.

    The only solution is to delete the problematic files and install the latest updates for Windows and all that software output of the file (in my case FL Studio). You'll need the Microsoft Windows Performance toolkit, scanned your system for the source of cpu and use PWS mem to identify files in use by dllhost, then kill all services except those who criticize. Make sure that you do not access these files on the issue. The only way to remove these problem files is back. First of all, you need to change the access right for your ACL by using the CACLS command. Once you have changed for each of the file paths you want to delete, you can delete each files * separately *. After the removal, you will need to restart your computer. then your pc should run normally with the normal CPU usage below.

  • Cannot delete files on the external hard drive USB
