• Cannot cancel the read-only file attribute.

  I click to clear the read-only and then hit apply to apply it to the folder and all subfolders, and looks like he took command. I closed the window and then reopen it and the read-only attribute is again highlighted. I am the administrator of the computer and I tried to move the folder to another location.

  Read/write attributes are not applicable to files in Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7. That's why you can't change the way you do. If you try to take possession of the file, this is how:

• Reset cbt - cannot get rid of the ctk vmdk files

  Hi, I have a known problem with the backup of my virtual machines where I need to reset the CBT. The procedure I have the backup software is as follows;

  Solution:

  Please follow the steps below to reset the CBT for a specific virtual machine.

  1. turn off the virtual machine

  2. right click on the virtual machine, click on "Change settings", find the 'Options' tab and click 'settings of Configuration.

  3. set the value of 'ctkEnabled' to false

  4. set the 'scsi0:x.ctkEnabled' to false for each disk of the virtual machine in question

  5. open the source folder and remove all - CTK. VMDK files.

  6. turn on the virtual machine

  7. power off the virtual machine again. This step is necessary to update the table of CTK.

  8 turn on the virtual machine

  9 replay backup task.

  So I have 2 VMs. VM1 and VM2. Both are win2k12 r2 (they are created the same day, the same way, installation of r2 std win2k12, patches, etc...). In step 5, for both servers, even if I delete the ctk.vmdk files, they are automatically reproduced so I can't delete them. Then I continued with the neverthless steps. After step 8, I saw that for VM1, has more ctk.vmdk files so that they are deleted somewhere in the process by the server itself. So my guess is that step 5 is not relevant. The problem I have is that even if I did exactly the same thing for VM2, ctk.vmdk files are never deleted. I reboot 3 times, I tried to manually remove them several times, they always, never to return, they are deleted.

  So, basically, I can't reset the cbt on VM2. I double check this ctkenabled are all 'fake' (tried also uppercase) still no luck. Any ideas how I could get rid of these ctk.vmdk files?

  Thank you

  Hi, proved that there was a snapshot. As soon as I deleted it, the ctk files disappeared.

• Cannot modify READ ONLY file attributes using the administrator account

  I tried the windows Explorer and a custom program called Directory Opus. I tried to create several administrator accounts, but not luck.

  I can't work with this existing problem.

  I need a solution.

  I have exactly the same problem.  Following the steps above did not work, folders/subfolders unchangeable rest.  I am the owner of the folder and subfolders.  I don't know yet how they became Read-Only to start.  Read-only on the individual files setting works correctly.  Changing the settings of file does not work.

  IMPORTANT EDIT:

  According to a message from the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
  You cannot view or change the read-only or system attributes
  To summarize, Windows does not include system or read-only folders settings (he was aware of these properties on the FILES however).  Individual applications that you use cannot ignore the State of read-only on a folder and can give an error.  In my situation, an application was trying to create a new file in a folder that has been marked read-only and honored the RO parameter and refuses to try to create the new file.

  To actually change these attributes, properties menu will not work.  The KB source:

  • If you click apply changes to this folder only , the read-only attribute is changed for all files in the folder. However, the read-only attribute is not changed for the folder, its subfolders or files in its subfolders. If you click apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files , the read-only attribute is changed for all files in the folder and all files in the subfolders. However, the read-only attribute is not changed for the folder or its subfolders.

  To change these properties, the user must start a Terminal command line and execute the changes by hand, for example, this command:

  • attrib - r + s c:\test

  .. What will remove the READ ONLY parameter and apply the SYSTEM setting in the folder.  Once more, change the properties of files (including files in subfolders) works as expected with the right click - Properties-> Security menu.

  Hello

  I googled this file pofusido.dll and it could be caused by a virus.

  I would suggest that you disable the restore mode as viruses use it to reinstall set apart them.

  Download and install the free http://www.malwarebytes.org/

  Restart the computer and keep pressing F8 to get into safe mode with network connection.

  Once you have updated Malwarebytes run and see if it can remove the virus.

  So delete all cookies in your internet Explorer.

• Cannot get rid of the BIOS password

  Bought an ACER Aspire E1 from an EBAY of ACER store about a year ago. A few weeks ago, I started it and quickly received a BIOS PASSWORD entry. Since that time, the laptop was absolutely worthless. I guess I tried the hardware, software, battery and all I could think of to fix the problem. I tried the MICROSOFT forums. ACER, ASK.COM Forums and forums Forums, forums, forrums and other forums that I could think of to try to resolve the unknown BIOS password. Thanks UEFI.

  I guess short of replacement of the EEPROM on the motherboard (don't think even that would help) which I'd be suspicious to do.

  Cannot get rid of the BIOS password.

  If I contact the ACER Support, they say that it's a hardware problem. I tried (as suggested by ACER support), bringing to STAPLES, BESTBUY, FRYS ELECTRONICS, OFFICE MAX, DATA DOCTORS, and several other 'Repair computer facilities' nothing works.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• Smartphones from blackBerry Desktop Manager "disconnected" and I cannot get rid of the error message

  I just bought a Blackberry Curve 8530, running v5 software, my computer is Windows 7. I installed the 501_b073_multilanguage software that I downloaded from the site Web of Blackberry. When I run the Desktop Manager I get this message: "Before you start, check that your current BlackBerry device is connected to your computer." Troubleshooting functions I've seen on this forum: many tips (ones I've tried is below). One in particular, that I can't do is "Office Manager shows"off". ".
  -Make sure that the user has entered in the Desktop Manager and select options > connection settings > detect. »

  ... because I can't get rid of the error message dialoge box, and I can't click on the menu options in the BB Desktop Manager.

  I tried the following:

  • uninstalled and reinstalled twice - 2nd uninstall was a "hard" uninstall where I deleted the registry files by hand
  • installs the cable to the USB port at the back (after having tried both ports at the front) of the computer
  • rebooted the computer several times
  • hard starts the phone by removing the battery
  • plugged in, removed and replugged in the phone.

  Also:

  • The phone is properly install when I plug it in, but the software still does not seem to see it.
  • In Device Manager, the BlackBerry appears under portable devices. Double clicking on it gives me the message "this device is working properly." of reassurring.
  • The Com1 port is working properly, according to Device Manager.
  • A double-click on the icon of the Device Manager to get the properties indicates that the Com1 port is "disconnected" - when I try to set it up, it appears just back to the disconnected state.

  If someone has an idea or something that I have not tried, I'd be happy of course!

  Thank you!

  Good, people, after a phone call from 3 1/2 hour with a (very patient) phone support person to Blackberry, here's what I learned.

  You can check your drivers USB in this way:

  1. Plug your phone into your USB key. Assuming that your Blackberry is "seen" by your computer...
  2. Go into the Device Manager on your computer (Panel)
  3. Expand the Universal Serial Bus controllers at the bottom of the list item
  4. Right-click on the BlackBerry smartphone, and then select Properties
  5. Click on the driver tab
  6. Click the driver Details button
  7. You should see a driver. I saw two. The one like the BlackBerry is the RimUsb one.

  So here's what NOT to do: we threw any driver who has been the "extra". This actually made using my mouse and keyboard cannot, because they are USB and my poor husband has sent in the basement to find a million-year-old keyboard (and mouse) with the old fashioned type of connectors (PS2). Bleh. Don't, don't.

  Here's what I did that worked (not saything this will work for you - it changes the registry to a backup system with this backup and restore if you are nervous about this kind of thing):

  1. On the start menu, choose run and type regedit into the registry editor.
  2. Follow this path to the file: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, CurrentControlSet, Control, computer, class
  3. Click: {36FCE60-C465-11CF-8056-4445535400000}
  4. If there is an article called law "UpperFilters", delete it. (See photos)

  Hope this helps someone.
