Cannot find file Vista Start Search

I want to search for a phrase in a file .doc that I know, that I have updated over the past two months.  File folder advanced search Vista don't give as much detail (used to do under XP).

I read it is supposed to be an option of advanced search on the sidebar (not the bottom) to start but I do not have this option.

I would appreciate your help to find this "big hunt" as it is called "Windows Vista for Dummies".

I am running Vista Home Premium 64-bit.

  • "Cannot find file" dialog box

    I get a dialog box after you start Win7 32-bit which indicates just that "cannot find file."

    He is obviously trying to load something but I have no idea what...

    Is there a utility somewhere that shows this boot file is loaded?

  • Windows cannot find filename.extention in "search programs and files".

    Hello all, there is a program called "Recuva" by Piriform there (it is a data recovery program). When I try to find the program (Recuva64.exe) on "search programs and files", I see "recuva", (the r without ceiling). When I click on that, a message box appears, saying "Windows cannot find '' Recuva64.exe' '. Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again. »

    Its running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
    If someone could help me solve this problem, I would be very happy. Thank you.
    PS: Same problems occur with Defraggler of Piriform CCleaner too.

    I'm not sure that I follow the problem then, sorry?

    It is just this program that fails, or all searches fail?

    If you click on "Recuva64.exe" it runs?

    Have you tried to remove and reinstall it?

    NOTE: later found this on a google - http://www.pcerrorfixtip.com/Recuva64.exe-318841.html I don't know on this site or one of its suggestions, I just found on google. But it does not mention "Windows cannot find C:\Windows\Recuva64.exe make sure you typed the name correctly and try again ' in the ' Recuva64.exe error messages:" section. Not sure if this is useful. AV check anything you download (as appropriate) from the site that I don't know anything about them, just a response from google. It will be useful.


    I hope that someone else may have an idea and help.

  • Cannot find files Limewire on PC after download

    I upgraded 5.5.13 Limewire 5.5.16, and I can't find my downloaded files (movies and songs).

    with all older versions that they were all saved in Documents > Limewire, but now, I searched the entire computer (start > Search toolbar) and nothing comes up.

    Please, you can try to help me as soon as POSSIBLE!

    Thank you!

    We have kept away from your original problem, I refer you to my post from Thursday, October 7, 2010 06:05, I put forward a possible solution for you to check.  All of my following messages related to this first proposal, which proved to be difficult to follow and thus eliminate as a cause.  You have now put my mind at rest and I think that it has been eliminated as a cause of your problems.  Internet Explorer protected mode has been tied up with this theory failed.  I'm sorry to mislead you on "garden path".

    Another idea, when you search for these downloads Limewire on your machine did you research looking into the system and hidden folders?  It may be necessary to show both hidden and system files and also uncheck 'Hide known file types' in Control Panel / folder Options / view, to have search search everywhere.  Rather than searching in the Start Menu / SEARCH box (if you are), load your user (C:\Users\devorah) file and use the search box located in the top right of the window.  If she fails to find anything, try to click on 'Computer' under ' search in '.

    "By default, the Limewire save the destination of the file is"C:\Users\Username\Documents\LimeWire\Saved"."

    Are there preferences or parameters seen from LimeWire that might give you a clue as to where the files should be or are being saved?

    See if this free research program can dig their place for you.

  • Cannot find files on clone super duper, I can restore from Time Machine backup?

    First of all, my apologies for cross posting.

    I hope I can explain my situation with enough clarity so that someone can help out me. I feel a little bit of panic.

    I've had a Mac mini that I sold so need to wipe. I first backed up using Time Machine on an external hard drive. Then, I used Super Duper to clone on a second hard drive. I didn't need a bootable copy of the training, but need access to data, applications, etc. on it from time to time. My intension was to access the data I cloned and stored on the hard drive of my current Macbook Pro. Well, that day came and I went to access my cloned copy of the mini and only see a list of users. I'm not able to find files, documents, and etc.even if I use spotlight to search for. So my questions are:

    1. Can I view the contents of the double machine differently to see more than a list of users? (that is WHERE IS MY THING?)
      1. I have error somehow in my approach?
      2. If I made the mistake with the super duper close, can I restore my time machine to the top of an external drive on another external drive? I want to restore my MacBook hard drive.

    Thank you!!

    I was running just an another SuperDuper! Clone.

  • with winzip Self-extractor corupt.and header error cannot find file c/user /? /AppData...

    Hi, I use windows vista and erase something and I can not install programs of see the internet.it with winzip Self-extractor header corupt.also during the instalation error it can not find file c/user /? / App

    Hello

    1. in the place where you try to download this file?

    2. you are trying to download the zip file?

    3. this happens with all files or any specific file?

    Switch error header corrupt is due to corrupt Self extractors (and corrupted, and .zip files) that were introduced in the file during the download.

    Normally, the download of the new file solves the problem. If, however, repeated attempts to download the file do not result in a good copy, your computer may be infected by a virus

    I also suggest you to download and run the latest Microsoft Scanner on your computer and check to see if it helps:

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

    Let's start troubleshooting by testing the hard drive.

    Test the hard drive with a diagnostic utility downloaded from site of the disc mftr. or use SeaTools for BACK of Seagate. You create a bootable CD with the files you download. You will need a third party burning software to do as the free ImgBurn, Nero or Roxio. Burn as an image, not in the form of data.

    If you can not do the test yourself and/or are uncomfortable opening your computer, take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad).

  • Cannot find files on sd card mp3

    said to post this here...

    Hi I have an e280 v1 and love, have had very few probs with it.

    I just put audio books on the sd card and it's not finding them. I have others there and is finding those so he found the card. I checked and they have the ex .mp3 file, so I don't see why. Gender was a little screwed up, but I fixed that.

    Any other ideas why do not find them?

    What is the USB Mode (under settings) on the Sansa?

    It's Auto Detect, he goes to MTP mode if it finds any Windows Media Player 10 or 11, mode MSC (plain USB) if it isn't. XP has WMP 9 so that the files can have exceeded by MSC. Vista has 10 or 11, so it's move to PSG. The Sansa should see all of the files anyway, but maybe it's not.

    In any case, go to the MSC, no automatic detection. Then, Vista should see both drives. Then try to send the books even more.

    Hello

    The files should still be there if you can log in with an account Admin look in C:\Users
    (Where C: is the drive where user profiles are what is C: by default).

    You can try to fix it with Safe Mode - repeatedly press F8 as you bootup. Also the ADMINISTRATOR account of
    Safe mode has no password by default unless someone has changed.

    Other methods:

    Use the hidden administrator account to lower your user account (to the lowest level) APPLY/OK then go back
    and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times. Do the same for others
    accounts that may be difficult. If necessary you can also reset your password in the accounts.
    Do not forget to leave your Admin account and the other to the desired level.

    Make another Admin account with your password and use it to fix the others if necessary. (just for
    repair, don't use regular account, not a safety valve) always keep a spare ADMIN account.

    DO NOT LEAVE THE ENABLED LSA OR USE DAILY. If it corrupts you are toast!

    If you cannot access your old account, you can still use an Admin to migrate to another (do not forget to always
    not that an Admin account that is not used except for testing and difficulty).

    the next day, whenever I try to run the Simulator, I always get this message saying file not found 'GoogleMaps.debug '.

    Here is the screenshot of my error screen:

    the google maps work fine in any case (I just click on don't ask me), but keep this error msg appear whenever I have re-launch the Simulator...

    Thanks in advance.

    I know this is trivial, but if someone could tell how to solve this problem, that would be greatly appreciated!

    This message means that JDE can not find the Google Maps app debugging information and that you will not be able to debug. Of course, Google distributes debug info toghether with their application.

    If you need to Google Maps or any other third-party on your Simulator application, I think that there is nothing you can do about it except to keep them by clicking on "don't ask again". If you do not need, the simplest is to use clean.bat to bring back the State of origin of the Simulator.
