Cannot remove/change files after upgrade to Windows7

After the upgrade from Vista to Windows7 due download my files to Carbonite. Now, impossible to remove or change anything on these files & had to copy them all to have control.  When I try to change information about the files, I received a "must be an administrator to change the files' - who I am.  Because I had duplicate files it also reproduces the space used and am running out of space.  Help, please.

Your post raises a number of questions.  What is your hard drive?  How big are your downloads?  You have the download in a folder marked read-only?  Are some of the downloads in read-only or system?  You always have the Vista files in something like Windows.old?  Do you receive messages of UAC?  You have a laptop or desktop?

On the problem of disk space, you can buy 1 TB disks, for desktop computers inside or outside for $50, and you can buy a 16 GB FlashDrive for less than $20.  You can also do a disk management, since you have two copies of downloaded files and possibly the old Vista files.  With very large hard drives as cheap that they lost, it's pretty easy to solve the problems of disk with a new disk space.

Good luck.

    Hello world!

    I've been unsing the PC version of CS6 x 64 with windows 7 x 64 for a while now, no problems at all.

    I have recently upgraded to windows 10(fresh install) and re-installed CS6. Even if Photoshop says that I have the updates, my raw, taken with the Nikon D800, files are not open.

    Someone else encountered this? Is there a work around?

    Thank you.

  • Error message - Windows cannot open this file after downloading program

    After several days in offline mode, I went online to update Microsoft Security Essentials and click on analysis complete.  It took an hour.  After that, I found that all my programs were virgins, almost of all of the standard microsoft Microsoft Security Essentials is.  I tried to download it again, plus others such as adobe acrobat, but all said "windows cannot open this file".  I asked help from Microsoft but received access denied.  I feel like an illegal immigrant, as all the doors were closed.  What does that mean?  My OS would be illegal?  It is Windows XP and was purchased new in the retail price in 2004 and has only once been out of my hands when I sent it repairs and have 2 GB ram added.  Any ideas?

  • .PS generate a blank PDF file after upgrading from Acrobat Pro 7 to 9 of the file

    Hi all

    I searched for it in vain, so I come to you now in desperation. My boss asked me track down this error and I have to be honest, I'm a little green with Acrobat Pro. So come the situation I know. My Department, usually use a .ps file to generate a publication as a PDF of the other .ps files. We operate on a network share (drive P :) on Windows XP SP3 machines with the latest updates.

    In Acrobat Pro 7 we can double-click the .ps file that executed the code through Adobe Distiller and a finished PFD at the same file below name would exit in the host directory. But now, after upgrading to Adobe Acrobat 9, this process produces a PDF file with all bookmarks appropriate and no content.

  • Remove iPhoto file after migration to pictures?

    I'm on MacBook Pro retina w / 251 GB SSD memory, bought 2013.  IPhoto library migrated to Photos but takes 62 GB of memory. What I lose if I delete the file Library.migratedphotolibrary of iPhoto?

    If you have checked and it thing even migrated to Photos correctly, you can remove the file from IPhoto library.

    Be aware, however, that you will find only a small part of this storage space. This is because the way it works is that both libraries are actually pointing the same files on your drive. The image files are not duplicated.

  • Cannot remove orphaned files

    If you know how this works and it should be simple. I ran check all links to the site. I pointed out the orphaned files on the Link Checker tab. There are many of them - plus 6 000. I want to delete these files. I select them all and press the button Delete, nothing happens. I select a bit and try the same thing. I try with both buttons remove and cmd-delete (which works in the Mac Finder). I even try to check to see if there is a delete option under the right button of the mouse.  Still nothing. (unless somehow, these files are deleted invisible but always appear on the list?) Shouldn't the name of the file disappear from the list when they are deleted?) I checked my keyboard and the delete button works.  Any ideas what is happening? Any other method can I use to remove these files?

    I suggest you re-create your cache.

    You will find in the menus at the top.

  • How to remove the old context files after upgrade to R12.1.1

    Hello

    I upgraded 11.5.9 (DB 9.2.0.4) to 12.1.1 (DB 11.2.0.2).

    In the application manager under automatic configuration menu, I noticed that I have 4 files of context: 2 DB level and 2 for the Application Tier. Two of them are apparently old 11i system. How can delete them so I have two listed on this page. I have to add custom settings. When I tried to do it wrong by saying 'Customization is not permitted on the different versions of the configuration files.'.

    Thank you
    Sinan

    Make sure that none of the old context files are available on the servers (delete), make sure also that you have entered right in the FND_NODES table.

    For the error you get, please see these documents.

    Hello

    It is an event that I went through:

    (1) recently I received a bunch of updates to Vista Home Premium 32 bit, after I did the update I decided to perform sfc/scannow task and this is the error message I got the "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and managed to fix them." Details are provided in the CBS.log windir\logs\CBS.log newspaper. For example c:\windows\logs\CBS\CBS.log

    Repair of system files change will take effect after the next reboot.

    (2) so I did restart and then try to run the sfc/scannow task once again, but I still got the same message I described in step 1 again. So basically sfc/scannow function did not repair the corrupted files.

    (3) the next step, I decided to perform a repair Installation of visa which took me 10 hours to complete the task, once the task of upgrading of repair has been made and before the windows update, I ran sfc/scannow task and this time he finds any corrupted files, but after I updated windows sfc/scannow result was the same as step 1.

    It is obvious to me that one of the updates of the origin of this problem, but find it me hard to pinpoint that one. So I am writing this e-mail to help and I hope that the problem will soon be solved. Please let me know if you need me to submit the CBS.log file for you to review thanks in advance.

    I tried to change the location of the swap file, but it did not work. I could really use some help with this. Thank you!

    After the screenshot there are only a few hundred MB of disk space on the data store, i.e. you expanded virtual disk of the virtual machine for almost the maximum size available!

    Once a virtual computer is powered on some additional files are created that consume little disk space. The largest is the pagefile with - default - the size of the memory put into service. However, if you want / need this swap file you can set a reserve of memory for the virtual machine, which will reduce the size of paging file (swap file = provisioned, reserve memory size).

    After the upgrade from Premiere Elements from 13 to 14 files mpeg do not open in the project window.  I tested the files in other applications and that they play.  I downloaded Dvix and it shows the MPEG files and MPEG codec is installed.  These files have played in the first 13 items.  I also converted the MPEG in AVI files and avi version plays in other applications, but not in first 14 elements.  No idea why?

    Ann Bens, thanks for the reply.  I renamed the folder that you have proposed.  The mpeg file were not protesting, but I saw an option when I right click the file name to replace.  I replaced it with himself, and he appears.  To be clear, I also uninstalled first items 14 and reinstalled. I don't know if the relocation or change of name of the folder or both has solved the problem, but the software works as advertised.
