copy of folder - icon

Windows 8.1 a copy of folder - icon appears on the desktop which, when deleted, causes the symbol icon to delete also. How can I prevent the folder icon to appear at all?

You are welcome.

It is always the last resort, but you could do a system recovery.  This should eliminate the problem.

If you have active Windows system restore, you may be able to select a previous point 'restore' and that might solve the problem, too.

  • Change the option of folder icon available in the right-click context menu in Windows 7 Explorer

    Hello:

    I want to be able to change the icon of a folder in the "context of the folder right-click menu' (as other choice such as: copy, paste, rename, etc.) instead of having to navigate to-> propierties of the folder-> customize-> change icon.

    Is it possible to add this option via regedit?

    Thank you!

    Hi Soul-Hunter,

    You will not be able to add the ability to change the icon of the folder by right click of the mouse and you can add that to the right click menu, this is normal.

    However, if you want to make a right click on the folder and change the folder icon, follow the steps:

    1. right click on the folder that you want to change the icon.

    2. click on properties.

    3. click on the Customize tab and click on Edit button icon under the folder icon option.

  • iOS 10 Mail: moving Messages, inconsistent behavior when you tapoterez folder icon

    iPhone 6, iOS 10

    I see inconsistent behavior when I try to move a message in Mail from in the message.

    In previous versions of iOS, during playback of an e-mail message, I could tap the icon of the folder at the bottom of the messages, and which would lead to the top of the hierarchy of the folders for the email of the message account. From there on, it was just a matter of tapping on the file I want to move the message to, and he settled there the message and look back to the Inbox display (or the folder view I moved this message of).

    In iOS 10, when I hit this folder icon, two things happen: it happens the same thing I described above, or sometimes, rather than see the hierarchy of folders, I see three buttons slide up from the bottom of the screen. The top button allows me to move the message directly to a folder in my account called 'Action' I created (I don't know why he chose this particular file to the default value for this button - maybe because it is first in alphabetical order of all my folders created by the user), the second button says "Another mailbox" and when it takes me to the hierarchy of the mailbox as described above, and the third button is a Cancel button.

    I can't understand what dictates which of those two things happening. I tried again and again on a bunch of different messages. Some do happen, some do the other thing happens, and sometimes I'll have a different behavior in the message even if I try again later.

    I prefer the old way. But I could get used to the new way, if I could at least choose what default folder appears in the first box.

    Anyone else seeing this?

    Someone knows how to change the default folder in the first box of this new process?

    Thank you!

    I seem to have solved the problem on my own. I went to settings > Mail, and in the "Threading" section, I have disabled "Complete Threads."

  • How to change the space between folder icon and the text on the personal toolbar?

    I have some files in the personal toolbar with just a letter to indicate what they are, but on the theme that I use, the letter is too far from the record, it belongs to and partially falls under following folder icon. I don't want to increase the space between all the icons to show the full letter, as this decreases the amount of icons that you can have in the toolbar. Instead, I want to reduce the space between the file and the text belonging to him, so he is right next to him instead of 5 pixels away.

    I found various entries to change the padding and margins in userChrome.css, but it's always around the icon, I don't know where to look to close the space between the icon and the corresponding text.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    Did you check the value of the left margin of the text?

    You can set if necessary negative margin values.

    #PlacesToolbarItems .toolbarbutton-text { margin-left: -2px !important; }

    Add .bookmark-item [container] If this enough for the items in the folder

    #PlacesToolbarItems .bookmark-item[container] .toolbarbutton-text { margin-left: -2px !important; }

  • I copied the folder iPhoto to my 'images' on an external drive and all photos disappeared both external drive and the iPhoto library. Do you know where they are?

    Hello! I have a big problem!

    I copied the folder "Images" that is default in my Mac on an external drive.

    Inside the 'Images' folder, there is the iPhoto folder.

    When I reopened iPhoto, all photos disappeared from the iPhoto library and the external drive. I left alone with very little, very old photos.

    Do you know where my pictures maybe? Photos in iPhoto has also lost all the flags...

    Thank you in advance for the answer...

    What software (name and version) are you using? What format is the EHD? How is it connected? What exactly did you do step by step

    Bottom line is that correctly copy a package does not remove anything so you did something wrong and we need to know exactly what you have and what you have done to help

  • Assistant Migration - copy a folder after a migration to the new computer

    Hi-

    Today I created my new MacBook Air. I used Migration Assistant to transfer, wireless, my old MacBook Pro. I didn't have enough room so I disabled my music folder. After the migration is complete, I made little place on my new Air and represented the Migration Assistant. This time, I chose only the music folder. But the problem I have is that, at this stage, I am prompted to overwrite my account or duplicate... I don't want to do either... I want to just copy this folder on my existing account.

    Sorry, this should have been posted under El Capitan. Just realized.

  • How can I copy the folder my documents in my iCloud drive and then I sync the two after that?

    How can I copy the folder my documents in my iCloud drive and then I sync the two after that?

    You can simply drag in iCloud reader, but I pass and move documents in their files app instead. It will probably take a while to download all documents.

    It is not a way to sync without some third party software that synchronizes folders, or learn how to use rsync in the Terminal.

    Instead of synchronization, simply use the iCloud drive in the 'Documents' folder after you move the files.

  • Copy the folder to update a x 220 to another system

    Hello

    I have a lot of x 220 machines I need to update using ThinkVantage System Update. I was told that I can download all of the updates in the system on a single machine update folder and then copy this file to other machines. Then when they perform the system update, they will not have to re - download all updates and will automatically detect the existing files in the folder.

    Is this really possible? I tried to copy the folder on the new machine Mode without failure, but when I reboot and run the system update, he always tries to download all updates, even if they are already in the folder.

    Thank you very much

    UPDATE *.

    I noticed that when I selected all recommended updates and all the optional updates, it took a while to download the files (my initial reason for the post), but when I chose only the optional updates, he flew in the download section.

    I don't know why he cannot make reference to the local copy of the files for the recommended updates, but this seems to be the way to do it (copy the folder of the Session, then install optional updates and then let the recommended updates are descended from the internet as usual).

  • Change folder icon in the Palette of functions

    Hey, got two questions.  I am writing an instrument driver for an instrument I have here at work, and I work the VI.  I organized and inserted into a library, which is in a project, including the library and examples folder (so basically how downloaded Labview instrument drivers are set up) on the screws.  I put it in the instr.lib folder and saw him appear in the palette of functions very well.  So according to that installation, my questions are:

    (1) how can I change folder icons (not the icons of VI - done already that) in the palette of functions?

    (2) how LV instrument drivers hide the 'Examples' folder and view just the screw in the folder "Public"?  (they don't seem to be marked as private)

    Thank you!

    I think the secret is to have a mnu file, which defines what will appear in the palettes. You can create one by modifying the pallets (under Tools > advanced) and there you should be able to delete items and change the icon from the palette by made a right click. Probably, you should also make sure that the mnu file is saved in the same folder, so that you can have in other PCs. Note that the palette editor has this annoying confirmation dialog which tends to hide under other windows and you need at the end of editing, so go to somewhere you can find it before you start editing.

    Another option is the use of VIPM to install the driver, and which will also allow you to edit a range.
