Change the name of files and folders in data warehouses
Is it safe while a virtual machine is running to change the name of the VMDK files and folders in a data store?
I discovered that a VMS VMDK files have a different name for the virtual machine itself, then someone changed the name of the virtual machine after you have created the records
I had to do it a few times, will try to document the process that I follow. If you have many warehouses of data, then make a note of what data store, the machine is in. The next step is to unregister the virtual machine from vCenter / ESXi
Then, you need to enable SSH on your ESXi host
Use Putty or something similar for you connect to the ESXi host
Run the following commands (in italics)
cd vmfs/volumes /
Then run ls to verify that the virtual machine file is here
Rename the folder by using mv
Change to the folder with cd
Rename the nvram, vmsd, vmx and
MV oldname.nvram newname.nvram MV oldname.vmsd newname.vmsd MV oldname.vmx newname.vmx MV 1234.hlog - oldname newname - 1234.hlog Rename the vmdk with vmkfstools EI oldname.vmdk newname.vmdk Edit the vmx with vi newname.vmx Replace references to oldname to newname in this file Register the virtual machine with the ESXi server and it should be OK This link gives more details and other methods VMware KB: rename a virtual machine and VMware ESXi and ESX records

Can I globally change the names of files and or directory to lowercase to uppercase?
in Windows XP or in Windows 7, globally change the names of files and or directory to lowercase to uppercase?
A single configuration change probably will not accomplish this.
Your best bet is probably the freeware "Bulk Rename Utility" program which has a section dedicated to change the case of file names.

Change the properties of files and folders
I recently changed the computer name and administrator, but I can't delete properties of former directors, i.e. name of files and folders. How can I do this?
Where in poperties are you talking about? Here is the list of authorized users - security and if you are looged Admin everything you need to do is click on edit and select another administrator, and then click on delete and it's done. I don't think that this deletion process can be done throughout the world - and if is not necessary as this other account administrator is no longer eistss or has been disabled. You should already be added to the Administrators group so that your username does not need to be added for access.
If this isn't security, where are you talking about? What are the 'properties' belong to the former administrator. I don't understand. Could you please further explain and tell me exactly how to get to the screen you are talking about? In addition, please explain what you are tyring to accomplish by doing this - what is the problem with the other 'properties' of the administrator that you need to remove the name and I guess only to insert your new name?
Thank you!

Is it possible to change the font color in the names of files and folders?
There are a few directories in my C:\Windows\system32, blue font color.
In general, blue file/folder names mean that the files or folders are compressed by Windows to save disk space.

Before I upgraded to Windows 7, I had a wonderful program on my XP machine called Xentient labels, which have changed the windows explore interface so I could have any icon file or folder on any drive highlighted in any color I want, as with Macintosh. As a blind person it is very important to me and helps me organize and find things faster.
Can anyone recommend any software that could do this for Windows 7, please? Thanks for any help or advice!

Hello
· Were there any changes made to the computer until the problem occurred?
· Have you tried right click and check the context Menu?
· This happens for any particular folder?
Step 1:
You can check if the same thing happens in a new user account. To create a new user account

If the new user account works fine then the old account has been corrupted, you can follow the link given below to fix the corrupted user profile.

Hi, is it possible to change the names of files that export out of indesign while packing?
For example, I can change the "Font of the Document" folder to export as a "document-fonts"?
I ask because our naming structure requires without capital letters and no spaces. Spaces are replaced by dashes (-).
And it would be nice if it was always exported as needed, instead of having to go back and change the names of files.
Thank you! Much appreciated!
Which cannot be changed without having a bad effect,. The name "Document fonts" is special. When you compress a file with fonts in a folder using exactly this name, InDesign know that these policies should be open and will be used in the document to the other end. If you name this file anything else, InDesign ignore fonts and the recipient will have to open the fonts manually.
If you have decided to change the folder names, you will need to do once the package created, perhaps with a script.

How can I change the name of 'folio' and the ' name of the publication?
Hello
We have published a multi-folio application a unique folio in it.
We would like to change the name of 'folio' and "the name of the publication" and we tried to do by using the dashboard. However, when clicking on "update" we box unchecked the "update content", because there is no change to the content of the folio. The problem is that this did not change anything in the application: the 'folio name' and "the name of the publication" remain the same...
Is it possible to do without having to republish this folio?
Thank you!
Olivier.
Metadata are considered as part of the content. Click Update again and leave the box "update content" checked.

Error message "Access denied" on the sharing of files and folders on a dual-boot computer.
I have a Dual Boot PC - the two Windows 7 Home Premium - one 32-bit, 64-bit.
If I try to access files created in the 32-bit system to the 64-bit system, I get "Access Denied" errors. This is extremely annoying as its my PC, my data, my everything!
The only way to solve the problem seems to be to give all permissions to "Everyone", but then I get my parcel Internet Security complain bitterly that my PC is now open to piracy because I gave "Everyone" full access permissions.
I searched the Web and Microsoft, but I never seem to find exactly what I'm looking for; part of my search text seems to have more weight than another. For example, I add "in the system to dual-boot" and I get links to creating a dual boot system.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to grant permissions to access 32-bit system folder to the main user on the 64 bit system, I would be very grateful.
Thank you very much.
