Context menus are shortened when more than 15 files are selected

Can this be fixed in windows 8?

I bet my bottom dollar that article applies to Windows 8 as it does for Windows 7.  A lot of old registry setting the date of return to Windows 95 and is still present in later operating systems.

You have this registry key, you should?

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer

The article requires YOU to create a new key called "MultipleInvokePromptMinimum" and to give it a value of 15 decimal places, for the current default setting of the number of selected files or to increase the value to match the number of selected records you want, for example to 30 decimal places.

Before making changes to the registry to create a system restore point so that they can be easily undone, or make a backup (Export) the key to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer registry.

Launch RegEdit and use the program help, because it is your best source of information on RegEdit.

These links take the subject a bit more.

  • New 4 GB Clip + empty shows 8 GB card when the internal memory has more than 10 files

    If I have more than 10 files on the internal memory, external 8 GB card will appear empty. If I format the internal memory and does not add any files, I see everything on the external card. MSC is set and PC, I see all of each drive.

    Any advice? I had rather not return this if I can make it work.

    Thank you.

    Initially, this was resolved by a reupload 1.02.15A firmware. But the problem comes back.

    I went to the RockBox firmware, and it works as expected. I'll check the next official FW and see if it has not changed.

    For now, I'm happy with RockBox.

  • More than 1 file open Excel, Aero Peek will show not miniature, only circles

    Since the critical update from Microsoft last week (26/02/13), when I have more than one file opened in Excel, all I get in the vignettes are circles.  I restored in time before the update and the Aero Peek normally carried out with more than one Excel file is open.  The feature works with more open file in Word, MapPoint and Outlook (all open at the same time).  If there is only a single Excel file open, the Aero Peek thumbnail runs as it should.  The file names appear again, but only spinning circles on the tile.

  • I have to remove the duplicate files, but having problems by selecting more than one file in the player at the time.

    I have to remove the duplicate files, but having problems by selecting more than one file in the player at the time. How can I select multiple files at the same time so I can just delete them. I used to be able to do this in previous versions of Media Player, but this function seems now blocked or unavailable. The problem is this: through previous use of media player, it plays all my multimedia files several times whenever a device support has been added. He would try to save the files on my main drive, but since there is not enough room this would save the files somewhere else. This happened several times, I suppose, because when I upgraded my computer and a media scan was conducted he found duplicates of all my media various times of at least 6-8. I've consolidated since my plates on 3-disc multi to, but have now records duplicated hundreds and thousands of duplicate media files. Previous versions of Media Player would allow me to select all files and then delete them both of the reader, but also from my hard drive. So now I'm stuck with more than 300 GB of duplicate media I have to search line by line through all my hard drives to find each duplicate both, unless I can get media player to do what it can. Any help in this area would be appreciated.

    Hello

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. is Windows media player files in double creation during playback of music files?

    To delete duplicate entries, click on another feature tab in the drive (for example the current playback), and then click library.

    If this does not remove duplicates from your library, you can use the Add to library dialog box to search computer to analyze a file on your computer the duplicate entries not valid-pointing. The player will remove invalid entries in your library that point to files that no longer exist in the folder.

    Complete the steps above for files that are stored in the hard disks.

    Method 1: Use the add to Library dialog box search for computers

    (a) start Windows Media Player.

    (b) press F3 on your keyboard to open Add to the library of the find computers dialog box.

    (c) click the Browse button to locate the folder on your computer so that your library contains invalid entries. Specify the location of the folder in the box look in.

    If you are not sure what duplicate in your library entry is not valid, you can add a path column to display in your library. Specify the folder on your computer that corresponds to the path not valid file displayed in your library.

    (d) click on the Search button.

    The player will search for digital media files and playlists in the folder that you specify and remove invalid entries in your library that point to files that no longer exist in the folder. If not valid in double entries point to other folders on your computer, repeat this procedure, specify a different folder every time.

    If only a small number of duplicate entries exist, you can delete those invalid manually by right-clicking on the invalid entry, and then clicking Delete .

    For large double-number of entries in your library (or if all your library is duplicated), it might be better to create a new library and delete the files.

    Method 2:

    After you remove the duplicate entries, run the troubleshooting of Windows Media Library settings to solve this problem.

    Open the troubleshooter in Windows Media Library

    Let us know the results.

    I hope this helps.

  • More than one file to download at once?

    Say if I have as more than a file upload field in my form, is there a way where I can make the upload of all the files together just like what I do normally in HTML?

    I'm having the problem because apparently, PHP receives only the $_FILES ['Filedata'], which is only one of the upload fields on a form. It allows only a single download when the user clicks a button to send a form.

    Objects in Flex will allow only one file to download at the same time. Here's a quote from the Flex API for the download of the FileReference object method.

    "Listeners receive events to indicate the progress, success or failure of the download. Although you can use the FileReferenceList object to let users select multiple files to download, you must download the files one by one; to do this, go through the FileReferenceList.fileList array of FileReference objects. »

    So the answer is no. You must download each file one by one.

    Hi Marshall32,

    If you have Acrobat Pro, you can combine more than 12 files by choosing File > create > combine files into a single PDF file. 12 file limit is only imposed by the online Adobe PDF Pack service. Acrobat itself isn't such a limit.

    (If you haven't already done so, you can download Acrobat here: https://cloud.acrobat.com/acrobat.)

  • High CPU usage when more than 30 sessions disconnection/connection

    Hi guys,.
    I had this problem for a long time.
    Environment: RAC 10.2.0.5. Oracle enterprise linux 4.8. Application Java B2C with dbcp and oc4j dirver.

    Server type: Dell R815. 48 processors 128 G MEM for each node.

    This is a lot of the web application connects to the database and when one of them is down it will restart soon and try to connect to the database again. Each of them will try to get 50 connections simultaneously initially.

    So when it happens, the sys cpu usage % will pass to more than 70, 80, 90 percent each time.

    BTW, it also happens in more than 30 logout simultaneously.

    Could someone tell me what the problem is?


    Thank you very much.

    The task of creating a connection and the session must be serialized, and if you start a number of connection or disconnection is trying at the same time you can end up with a storm of activity on the relevant latches that effects serious knockon. I'm a little surprised that you see that with only 30 to 50 connections, but maybe you have a couple of processors.

    I made some comments to this topic on another thread a while ago: Re: generals to have a high value of the init process (or sessions) parameter

    It is possible that you can configure the application server in order to limit the speed at which he tries to create or cancel the connection - for example, there may be configuration settings to say things like: 'create no more than 5 both', 'just wait a second between disconnections. (Oracle introduced parameters to logoff storms - but maybe they don't work in your version).

  • How to create drop down menus in Muse with more than two tabs

    The widget menu pullsown does only two tabs. How do you do this more than two tabs?

    By default, the tabs in the menu widget are generated in Muse based on the site map, that you define in outline view. This is configurable based on the Menu type setting you choose in the options Menu If you wish, only, upper level pages subpages too or manual. So in order to add a third menu tab, you simply add a third upper level page.

    I would like to know if it's not what you're looking for and what exactly you're trying to reach.

  • How can I save a web page without creating a dozen or more than tiny files, which is worse than Internet Explorer?

    When I try to save a web page in Firefox, I get about a dozen tiny files with any funny names cluttering up my documents folder and makes it difficult to find anything. It reminds me of the problems I used to have with Internet Explorer more than ten years ago. But at least IE was kind enough to collect all these files in a single folder named "files". Firefox them pouring everything in the folder my documents. Messy.

    Years, I discovered Opera, which offered a file format which combined the original html code with other files in a single file: the archives of the internet, with the extension instead of htm mht. I used Opera for years, but has recently become aware of the benefits of Firefox.

    A few days ago, I downloaded the latest version of Firefox and installed. I've been evaluating it since then. It looks good; I figured out (more or less) how Bookmarks work, and I'm getting used to the task bars.

    But when I try to save a page, I still have a deluge of tiny files cluttering up the target folder. Firefox stores pages in the form of archive, but only in the old scattered form. Of course, I could just save the html code only. Maybe it's the best thing, but it loses a lot.

    The chaos of the junky files cluttering my target folder is enough to send back me to Opera, despite its limitations.

    This extension allows for web pages saved in MHT format.

  • Camera Raw CS4: cannot open more than one file?

    It is a very strange problem. I recently installed CS4 and started using it with a Canon 5 d RAW files Mark II camera. By choosing File-> open as-> Camera Raw, I can't select more than one raw file in the file dialog box. I can not open a single raw, no problem, but no matter what I try, or ctrl-A, now the SHIFT key or ctrl does not allow me to open several files. With the CS3 version, that it worked well.

    Is there a setting in preferences to control this (seems very strange there)

    PS: I see that there are two selections available in the list Camera Raw file types: what is the difference between them?

    Thank you

    If they are raw files, then simply use File-> open, you just go the file-> open as a route if you want to open JPEGs in Camera Raw without going through the bridge.

    There is no point in listing of camera Raw file formats because each device produces its own version anyway, one. CR2 file produced by a camera is not the same as that produced by another camera, the Camera Raw plugin must be constantly updated.
