Clumsy fullness of the C: drive

• To create shareable photo on the D: drive folders

  We have a PC running Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3.  There are 4 user accounts all configured as directors.

  The PC hard disk is partitioned into a C: (OS) drive and a drive D: (DATA).  Currently, almost everything is stored on the C: drive, which is almost full, and the D: drive is generally not used.

  To mitigate the problem of space on the C: drive, I want to spend our photos of different "my pictures" and "Shared pictures" folder on the C: drive in a new folder on the D: drive while maintaining the same functionality that we currently - specifically, the new folder must be accessible by all user accounts 4, and the folder must be treated as a 'Pictures' folder so that images like 'Point of view as a slide show. are available.  Is this possible?

  I tried to test this, but the results so far are not promising.  If I create a folder on the D: drive, it is accessible only by the user account that created the file - other users get an error "access denied."  I've seen other posts that mention using the Security tab to allow access on the folder properties window, but I can't get a Security tab appears (even when Windows is started in safe mode).

  Any ideas?

  in the Explorer.exe (files and folder browser, no internet), click on "Tools" > "folder options" > click the tab 'View' and then at the bottom of the list "Advanced settings" and uncheck "Use simple file sharing (recommended)", then click OK. Now you can see the file security tab in the properties, and you can add other users to the allow list. You can control if they can only read or actually write, copy, delete files too with permissions "full." Once you have added the appropriate permissions for the user (s), then don't forget to go back and check "Use sharing simple files (recommended)" if it's like it was before you started. Keep the value permissions :)

  MS has something 'power tools' that will allow you to define a different directory of your default "photos" folder - so it can point to the path of the D: drive. This tool is called "Tweak UI" and is available here on the website of MS' (somewhere). With Tweak UI, the section called 'My computer' > 'Special files' may end your request.

  You will have to perhaps connect with each profile and define their folder of photos with Tweak UI as well.

  Yes, it can be done :)

• iMac 27 "mid-2011 hard drive failed, fan to full after the removal of HARD drive

  iMac (27 inch, mid 2011)

  2.7 Ghz i5

  12 GB of RAM

  I have a fault where the HARD drive fan runs at max speed (RPM 5431, 51 * C temp).

  The first symptom was a rattling noise from the factory 1 TB HARD drive, which has disappeared from the system, to be replaced by a disk of 4 GB in size. Then the fan started running at max speed.

  A few months ago, I installed a 2nd drive HARD, an SSD and use this to all the data, so the 1 TB drive HARD original was basically unused and empty. To try and stop the fan and also run the disk diagnostics failed I've removed it from the iMac. However the HARD drive fan is always full.

  I ran the Apple Hardware Test and received the error message: 4SNS/1/40000000: TH00 - 9,000

  Given the primary SATA HDD is now removed, I also set the temperature probe? Are there other fixes to this problem of fan? I didn't intend on replacing the HARD disk immediately that this is not necessary at this stage.

  Thank you!

• Compensation copy in the Cache of the external drive made bootable disk full - where / how to remove?

  My boot drive became full on my Mac Pro (end of 2013 Quad Core, I installed 64 GB 1866 MGz DD3 RAM), OX El Capitan with 250 GB HD running - it was completely full and buzzing constantly warnings etc - then I found that I had used 192,85 GB on my user folder - I have deleted my desktop, downloads and deleted the Recycle Bin.  Properly, I did a few Google searches on how to move the users folders and files of applications on an external drive using the command sudo Ditto.

  I created a new user account and tried to copy the files using Terminal Server (my files are time machine saved).  I get error messages in the Terminal it produces in series through files, noting that start-up disk is full and no space for copy cache (or something to that effect). So I've put an end to the terminal window.

  I deleted an another 10 GB by removing some applications on my HD that I can re - download.

  I tried the same process and got the same error messages as Terminal run the copy command and put an end to the window of the terminal again.  When I search the two accounts, clear Trash, running MacKeeper I can't find where the 10 GB of cache is stored, or how to remove them and I wonder how many GB of cache I.

  Tips on how to find / erase this interrupted copy hiding in order to free up space, and second, alternative ways to move or copy a large WAD of (192,85 GB) files on an external drive without having to complete the cache on the source drive?

  Many thanks in advance,

  Michael

• My iCloud is full and I would like to spend on 5000photos on the hard drive and then remove them to iCloud.  How do you do that?

  My iCloud is full and I want to transfer most of my 5000 images in the cloud on the hard drive on my iMac which is about 10% of storage capacity.  How can I do this?  Thank you

  1. Photos > Preferences > iCloud > iCloud (original Dungeon) photo library
  2. Wait for them to download

  If you want to remove the cloud, you can do two things:

  System Preferences > iCloud > manage > photo library > remove and disable

  or

  iCloud.com > pictures (select and delete)

  Please note, however, if you enable iCloud library again at any time in the future on your Mac, all the photos on your Mac will download again. You may find that buying more space iCloud is the best answer for you.

• Satellite M200 Vista shows that the HARD drive is full of 98%

  This problem showed about 2 months ago the system started running slowly and after a bit of research, I went to computer and found he showed that the HARD drive was full of 98%. Then I went and disabled the feature of shadow copy that reached about 3 Gig. After that, the performance was still hurt, so I decided to do a system restore. All reformatted once was good again until a week ago, and the same problem came back once again.

  This laptop is running Vista Home Premium SP1, 120 Gig drive HARD, Kaspersky Anti-virus, it has very limited connection to the Net, as it is mainly used to store and transfer music on an Ipod (20 GB of music).

  Any thoughts? Maybe a hardware failure?

  Thanks in advance.

  Craig.

  Hardware failure is very likely, since you are clearly able to access your hard disk without problem.
  Looks like you are using software that could be gradually fill the hard drive with data, such as a log file, it is difficult to say.
  With the erosion of the space, you might want to periodically check each folder in drive C (right click, properties) and see how it changes for each new session.

  Also clean the temporary files would help such as for:

  "c:\temp".
  "c:\windows\temp".
  "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Temp.
  erase internet files of Internet Explorer cache / temporary
  deactivation and reactivation then "System Restore" (do this only if you are satisfied with Vista is running stable)

• I have a duel processor. C drive is nearly full E reader uses only 30%. What happens when the C drive is full?

  My laptop has 2 dual processor x 75 GB.  Tried to move the files to the E drive but they double and are difficult to locate. Life should be easier than this!  C drive is nearly full, E drive uses only 30%.  What happens when the C drive is full?

  [Moved from comments]

  Simple!

  You get a BIGGER hard drive.

  The 'norm' for laptops these days is at least 500 GIGs.

  Which is the same amount that I have in my table.

  2 x 250 GB.

  I have XP Pro on one single, Windows 7, on the other. (And each of them uses ONLY about HALF of these hard drives!)

  In a month or two, I'll upgrade to 2 x 1 terabyte hard drives. sounds a little one 'kill too much', I know, but hey, my computer IS able to be updated that he got so far it?

  Yours is in need of an upgrade too, suggest that there is, to solve your problem!

• my c drive is full, can I save on the d drive or some programs to transfer to d to give me more space on c

  I have a 240 ACER travelmate 18 GB C drive and 10 GB - drive D, C being 17,84 full and D 9.97 free system is running very slow and does not allow me to add more programs. Is it possible to transfer some D-Drive programs to enhance the capacity of C-drive work

  Hello

  There is no direct way to move the program to the C: drive on drive D:, uninstallers to your C: drive and then re - installed on the D: drive. Understand what programs consume the most space; you don't have to bother with little things.

  Try the following methods:

  Method 1: Move the browser cache

  By default, Internet Explorer spends a huge amount of disk space for your cache. Move the cache on your D drive.

  Open Internet Explorer > click Tools > click Internet Options > general tab > (Temporary Internet Files) > under settings > move folder.

  Method 2: Move your temporary files folders.

  By default, these files are on your C: drive. Create folders on your D: drive called TMP and TEMP, then: (right-click my computer) > Properties > Advanced > Environment Variables > and change the two folders listed in the albums section, such that they point to the files newly created on your D: drive.

  Method 3: Change the size of the virtual memory paging file.

  Check that your antivirus (all-in-one suite If you have one) is not turn off your network traffic.

  Note the devices installed in the machine.  Use this information to download the latest version of the drivers and software for the manufacturer's Web site features (on another machine and store on an external support, I suppose, would be the only way for you to do.)

  Uninstall the software/drivers for network devices.  Turn it back on.  Even if pilots are found/installed automatically, manually update the drivers & software using the files you downloaded earlier.

  Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

  • MalwareBytes (FREE)
  • SuperAntiSpyware (FREE)

  Remove anything they find.  Reboot when necessary.  (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

• the hard drive of my computer is purchased full.i a drive.how external hard change outside the primary disk so I can download music easily?

  the hard drive of my computer is purchased full.i a drive.how external hard change outside the primary disk so I can download music easily.right now my external backup just my computer that isn't doing me good

  original title: external hard drives

  You don't want to change your external drive to your main drive.

  You can move your music files on the external drive - or you can move other data on the disk to make room for your music on the internal drive.

  What applications do you use to play music?

  As described in the first link below, you can move your full "My Documents" folder on the external drive.  Alternatively, you can simply move your music files.  If such an arrangement would give you a satisfactory performance, however, depends on how your external drive is connected (for example, USB 1.1, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, eSATA, Firewire, network) and other hardware features of your computer.

  Not all of the following conditions will be applied to you, but some of the tips can be useful.

  There are a number of things you can do to- temporarily - free up disk space.  The only real solution, however, is to get a bigger internal hard drive.   You can move the data to your external drive, but if it's the data that you use frequently, slower access times may annoy you.  Therefore, I do not recommend that you move your My Documents folder in its entirety on the external drive, but you can certainly do this by following the related instructions.

  • You can run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr > OK)
  • You can reduce the size allocated for the restoration of the system to about 1 GB (right click on desktop > properties > system restore > settings)
  • You can disable hibernation (if you don't use it) (right click on an empty spot on the desktop > properties > screen saver > power > Hibernate)
  • You can disable the indexing of the drive, which will also speed up your computer a bit (http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp)
  • You can reduce the size of your Internet browser cache (depending on the browser that you use)
  • You can remove most of the $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx files $ following the directions here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm (read the warnings in the gray box first)
  • See also:

  " How to recover disk space on Windows Server 2008 and Windows XP computers? ."

  " Forty ways to free disk space ."

  But none of these answers you will earn really large amounts of space for very long.  The term solution time is a bigger hard drive.

  In the meantime, download and run JDiskReport, that will show you graphically what files take up more space and seem to so indicate what files you must move it to your external drive.  If you want to move an application, you will need to uninstall and then reinstall it specifying your external drive as the installation location.  You can not simply move the files.

• Windows Vista think the C drive is full

  I'm trying to help my mother claire on the space on his computer. It is currently running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, drive C is 140 GB. Yesterday, she showed that she had about 5 GB of free, this morning it had fallen less than 1.5 GB. I ran the disk cleanup tool, deleted temporary files and SR shadow copies and got it for free up to 2.47 GB.

  We went through all the programs that are installed the other day and uninstalled everything that it does not work. Under uninstall programs, I added all the space used by programs and came with 10.17 GB. When I open the C drive to view the files, all totaled, I can explain 26,44 Go, more de.4058 MB.

  Take the free space, I could clearly account, it is mysteriously full approx. 100,92 GB and I'm not. I've crossed the road and does not know where it is used.

• 100 GB Vista full boot need to merge with the E drive.

  I have vista, my startup diskc: disk is full Iwant to merge the e drive?

  100 GB full Vista, 1 disk boot hard need to merge with the E drive part.  HOW?

  Hello

  What is the size of the E:Drive?

  E: drive may be the recovery disk to reinstall the OS, if there is between 5-15GBs.

  Do not touch, except to make the recovery of the disks.

  Here is the info on the recovery disks >

  Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.

  1. to reinstall Vista from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.

  F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.

  You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.

  2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.

  Also ask them how to make records.

  Your D: or E: drive of recovery should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..

  There are backups on an external hard drive.

  To resolve the problems that have arisen with the recovery D: Partition, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove all that has been added to it.

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  If E: is not the recovery disc, with disc of Vista management you must use all the space of the E: drive, doesn't not part of the E:.

  See if this applies to your situation.

  Save all data on E: > E: remove > and then extend C: into the now unallocated space where E: was.

• I have a HP Pavilion Windows Vista Home Premium, and the D: drive is full.

  I have a HP Pavilion Windows Vista Home Premium, and the D: drive is full. I don't understand how he got that way... but... I've never used windows to the top, however I do back up with my Norton Security.  I'm not a COMPUTER guru AT ALL and am very confused as to what must be saved for me to do a system restore.  I just made a backup on a 16 GB usb flash drive, which included photos, documents, email, contacts and music.  But what of my registry or my drivers I've updated on the latest updates of 2 years and windows?

  So in plain English for the layperson to the computer, lol, can someone tell me...

  1. where should I back up to? (windows, norton?)

  2. what should I back up? EXACTLY, please. lol (I have hundreds of games, I don't want to back to the top if possible)

  3 and... HOW MUCH ALCOHOL SHOULD I HAVE AVAILABLE WHILE TRYING THIS. LOL just kidding. Laughing out loud

  Hello

  Updates must be installed in a certain order and no Service Pack must be installed unless and until it is offered through Windows Update.

  However, try these options:

  Step 1: You can not reuse what already automatically downloaded and installed. You can however save updates and install them manually if you wish.

  Step 2: You can create a system image on the computer. A system image is an exact copy of a disc. By default, a system image includes the drives required for Windows to run. In addition, it includes Windows and your system settings, programs and files. You can use a system image to restore the contents of your computer if your hard drive or computer ever stops working.
