  Hi Halasz,

  You can get what you want to use, for example a/l FOR command from the command prompt:

  • [Win] + X
  • Command prompt
  • CD /D drive:------DirectoryWhereYourFilesAreStored
  • Type of / l %G in (1,1,100) @If are TEXT. %G Ren TEXT in the file. File G % File%G.txt, and then press [Enter]

  Notes

  1. Respect the %G everywhere capital elsewhere, the command will fail. If your decide to use "%g" instead of "%G" and then use "%g" everywhere for the same reason. You can also decide to use another letter...
  2. If you have more than 100 files replace the parameter appears in bold with the appropriate value.

  There is necessarily a way to do something smarter, but it would take a little thought and a batch development. Not sure whether what you need at the moment.

• The file names changed in wingdings, including the file extension and I can't delete, change them, open, etc. Here are the pictures.

  Have (had) a file with multiple files it contains with pictures in each file.  A week ago the pictures were there.  Now, the names are replaced by wingdings as names and file extensions.  When I try to open it, it is not accessible and that the file name, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect.  When I try to delete it, it says that the file name you specified is invalid or too long and specify a different name.  When I try to rename it, it tells me that if I change the file name extension, the file may become unusable.  If I try to change anyway, it says I've specified file name is not valid or too long.  Only tried for the name 1.  I did a restore in the case where a program interfered with that.  However, nothing has changed.  All of the suggestions.

  You can download and try to delete the file Unlocker http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtmlwilh.  Although it is not designed for this particular circumstance, it may very well work in all cases, as it has been very successful in a wide variety of situations are not specifically highlighted in the directions (where do not work the normal Vista options).  NOTE: Some antivirus flag programs this program as a malware, but it is a 'false positive' and is safe to use perferctly.  My own software to flag, but several other well-known software products it clean and the warning is included in the documentation of the program.

  I wish there was a way to save the images, but at this point, it seems that the only option is to delete because you can't rename files EHF (if this option is available-I hope that work above).  Unfortunately, System Restore does not affect the files of data, so even if a program caused this, System Restore can eliminate the cause, but it would not restore the files to their previous names.

  If you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky because they retain the files called snapshots http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Previous-versions-of-files-frequently-asked-questions.  It can be used to recover previous versions of files that have been changed or deleted accidentally.  Here's how: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx.

  If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, you don't have a shadow, but there is a free program for you that does essentially the same thing called Shadow Explorer: http://www.shadowexplorer.com/.  I suggest that you download and implement as soon as POSSIBLE to protect you if you accidentally delete or modify a file.  It will not help you in this instance, but it can help save the next time.

  I'm more concerned about why this has happened in the first place and prevent it from happening again.  I saw file names change before, but never of wingdings which then do not let you open, edit, delete, or rename.  We will check some of your system files: go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.  If you find any these corrupted files, try to post them here.  Maybe we can replace the good files on the disc.

  While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  It will scan and try to solve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a cause.

  If this does not work, then please post repetitive errors in Event Viewer about the name change (Start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer).  Here's how to use Event Viewer: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic40108.html.

  If this does not work, you will need to do a repair/system upgrade using the Windows Vista Installation disc authentic (you own or that you can borrow from someone).  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-vista.html as well as the upgrade from an earlier version of the Windows section of the following: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918884.  Although this will not affect your data, settings or programs, you should always back up your data before you start just be on the safe side. If other procedures do not work, it is almost certain to work - but it will probably not fix your renamed files.  You can have a lot of updates to re - install (including all you need to remove service packs).  If the version on system with SP1 or SP2 preinstalled cane and the disc is an earlier version, then you will need to do a slipstream drive as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/151606-vista-sp1-slipstream-installation-dvd.html.

  I hope one of these procedures can solve your problem.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try something else.  Return message anyway so we know how it turns out.

  Good luck!

• DVD Maker changes every time that the file extensions?

  Original title: dvd & movie maker whats up with these different files?

  I download my video and saves it to a WMV file... then I edit in movie maker and he recorded as wmv, but at other times like a MSWMM file... then I try to publish it in movie maker and it records in a file wmv or sometimes msdvd... why he spends it saves and how this affects the burn process?... it will say 1 file could not be found many times... How can I get these two working smoothly? I have a 32 bit vista

  Hello
   
  When you have finished working on a project, you can publish the project as a film. A film is a Windows Media file with a .wmv file name extension or file Audio-Video Interleaved (AVI) with an .avi file name extension.
   
  Project Windows Movie Maker has an .mswmm file extension. For example, myProject.mswmm and the film has a .wmv or .avi file extension. For example Mymovie.WMV or Mymovie.avi.
   
  Changes made to the file extension depending on the actions that you perform in Windows Movie Maker. Change file extensions should not affect the burning process unless the creation of DVD does not support the file format. If the file is not found, it means that the file type is not supported by DVD Maker.
   
  For your reference:
  1. see work with projects in Windows Movie Maker
  2. see publish a movie in Windows Movie Maker
  3. see burn a DVD-video disc
  4. see problems with creating a DVD-video using Windows DVD creation

• How can I change the file type extension?

  Help please!

  I was working in Paint.net and thought that my changes have been saved but I incorrectly saved in Paint.net it as 'nom.1' and making it inaccessible to paint.net or any program being the type of file 'file '.  I then changed the name of "long.bmp", and who seemed like he did to be accessible but Paint.net is still not open it.  On another file that I made the same mistake on, I changed the name to "name2.pdn" that worked and I am able to open it properly.  I tried to change the name on the premiere of "name.pdn" in Windows Explorer, but for this file, it only changes the name "name.pdn" and not the extension.  It's always a ".bmp" file  How can I change to a file real '.pdn '?

  Thanks for the help

• [Solved] When you change the file type for RAR files, it also changes the file type of the ISO XP files

  I tried to change the file type description, as well as in default and the icon for the rar and iso programs file types inmenu\ tools\folder options\file typest\advanced, but to change the settings on a file type automatically changes settings on the other.

  How can I do this via regedit?  What can cause a bug?

  * original title - xp: types of files RAR and ISO locked together, the same treatment! *

  Hello

  1. How are you sure that you change the individual file extension and not the entire folder?
  2. how exactly you try this?

  To change a name of file, all you have to do is right click on the file, and then click Rename, instead of the path you describe in the thread.

• problems .crd of opening the file extension under Vista 64-bit,

  I have .crd files created by the cardfile program that was on older versions of Windows. Cardfile program does not work on Vista 64 bit. I need a way to open files in a usable format.

  Hello Moesch,
   
  Thanks for posting on the Community Forums of Microsoft Vista.
   
  You must associate the *. CRD Extension with the CardFile application. In Vista, by default, the extension of the CRD is associated with CardSapce.
   
  To change the file association:
  1. click on start and type CMD
  2. in the list right click on CMD and click "Run as Administrator".
  3. use the following commands to * change * the file association.
  a. type SCS .crd = CardFile31, and then press on enter
  b. Type ftype = C:\Windows\CARDFILE CardFile31. EXE %1 and press enter
  4. double-click the Cardfile.CRD file. It should open in the map file.
   
  It will be useful.
   
  Thank you and best regards,

• B2B generate the file with the file extension will start

  Hi guru B2B.

  We have a problem with the name of the output file. We have customized the java class to change the file name out based on operational needs. It works well, but recently, we see the file with the extension name from "start" are generated with size '0 '. The right files always generated with the appropriate content.

  Can someone tell us what is causing this problem?

  Thank you in advance,

  NAFTA Li

  Hi Alena

  I assume you are using a B2B channel tuned to retrieve messages in a folder. Please check if this channel to listen is to have the parameter enable selected marker.

  Disabling the marker Enable should avoid generating the file start in the folder.

  Thank you

• Adblock Plus working on main identitiy, stopped on the other profile, when I try to download it on another identity, "firefox cannot change the file'message.help please"

  It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

  Delete the files (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/profiles

  New files will be created if necessary.

  See "extension corrupted files:

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/unable+to+install+add-ons

  If you see disabled extensions, is not compatible, in "tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button, on the left side of the search bar (or click on the"Find updates"button in older versions of Firefox) to check if there is an available update compatibility.

  If that didn't help then also try to delete the file addons.sqlite.

• Firefox does not add the file on the file extension registration

  When I ask to save a file, the Save dialog for Firefox removes the file extension (for example, 'doc', 'pdf', "ofx") of file name, and I have to manually add it back. Earlier versions don't behave this way.

  You can try to delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox profile folder.

• After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

  After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

  wlmail.fol is a tiny text giving the name of the folder. The exported messages will have filenames like 00D13E83 - 000025DF.eml. If you don't see all of the files like this, your export probably did not work properly.

  For a successful export, follow these directions:

  1. Set Windows Live Mail to work offline before starting.
  2. Create a temporary folder on your desktop * to contain the exported messages.
  3. In the Export Wizard, select the temporary folder, and then select all the folders.* *
  4. When it is complete, check that the number of files in each folder to the temporary folder is one more than the number of messages in the corresponding folder of WLMail.
  5. Copy the temporary file to its final destination.
     If you use a reader not NTFS to do this, you will see a warning that certain file properties will not be copied files. This can be ignored.

  * Windows Live Mail do not work with files that are not on a local drive, as opposed to an external or network drive. This is avoided by using the office as a temporary folder location. 
  * If you want to export the files sampled only, select each of them containing messages. Subfolders are not automatically selected by default.
