  • D: drive is full & I am denied access to compress.

    D: drive is full and I was about to try and compress but it tells me access is denied to do so. It compresses the best option and how do I get access to do?

    Compress a drive which is full, it is impossible and impractical.  Disk compression required of available space, which is not the drive.  Disk compression has been reported and proved to be dangerous since once the disk 'compressed' file is damaged, all the data are lost.

    If the hard disk is a separate drive (not a second partition) you should consider buying a large player.  Most of hard disk manufacturers provide a utility to "clone" the hard drive in the new drive.

  • Updates will not work as C drive is full and I can't find out how to change the default drive?

    My "C" drive is it is full and I don't know what programs and files should be able to uninstall unused programs. Those that I was able to uninstall I was doing ground but that's left, I don't know what are the components.
    This has affected security downloads and as a result, I am currently without protection.
    The Firefox version I'm currently using is 40.0.2 as the update might fail for lack of room.
    How to fix this and get my computer working properly / so far, I am at a loss?
    Is it possible to move the programs to other readers?
    Is this something that I'll be able to fix it with help or do I have to take someone who knows what they are doing?

    You must ensure that there is enough space on the Windows system drive (drive C) to ensure the proper functioning.

    You can check if you can move (uninstall and reinstall) some programs in another drive and possibly move on data as well.
    You can also check the Windows temp (% RPM, variable environment % TEMP %) to see if you can clean up files there.

    You can perform a custom Setup with most programs including Firefox to specify the installation folder.

  • Hard drive is full and I don't know why

    Hello

    The free space on my hard drive stop less and less even if I do not want to install anything on it. In fact I deleted the files and folders to try to increase the free space on the hard drive, but free space still less and less stops. I searched through the filesa and folders, etc, and there seems to be about 80 GB which is used by the hard drive that I can't find anywhere. I ran the software anti-virus and anti-spyware software that I also have a firewall running. However, the hard disc to stop continually complete with what I don't know. Any ideas?
    Darren

    Following your advice, I installed:

    WinDirStat - free
    http://WinDirStat.info/

    This allowed me to find all the files on my computer and better still highlighted the huge file that was causing the problem.

    The file at the root of the problem is a log file more 126 GB in size. He was hiding there in a folder on my hard drive that Explorer windows normal not to find / identify. The logfile at the origin of the problem was "pyagcore" and it seems if installed on your computer when you install the kiwee toolbar internet explore.

    I was able to delete the pyagcore file and then disabled and deleted the kiwee toolbar. Everything looks OK and I more 126 GB of hard disk space back.

    Cheers and thanks a lot for your kind cooperation.

  • I am the owner of everything on my pc I do not have the special permissions for individual files and I am denied access

    permissions of origin title: special

    I am the owner of everything on my pc I don't have special permissions for some individual files that I find quite strange. It also means that I can't delete some files. I tried to access the files when I started from a different hard drive, but still can not remove. While I followed all procedures to address this issue, I still do not end with special permissions. Is it possible to modify or delete the files from the MS DOS window or is there something that I am missing. I also found it seems to be an 'unknown user' in the permissions area, and when I try to delete or change this 'unknown user' and a second show. 1 then said who is denied access, but the other has access. No matter what I have I can not get rid of it! And file sharing is disabled disabled! Help, please

    In Vista, many files can not even to administrators. Some are to protect the user from making mistakes (like many in the Windows directory and in your personal profile).  Some are points of junctionhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb968829 (VS.85) .aspx which are there for backwards compatibility and should not be modified in any way (and certainly not deleted) or you may not be able to use your programs or may even damage the system to the point where it will need to be reinstalled).  You shouldn't need special permits to delete a file if you have all the rights, but special permissions can block access and that's sometimes how it blocks even administrators.  Keep in mind that XP administrators had access more than them in Vista - blocked is not necessarily a problem, but intentionally by developers of Vista.

    However, if you're talking about files that you devriez have permission, then the following information about the ownership and permissions can help you.

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista:http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/. To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To solve this problem with folders, folders takeownership or the reader (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html. To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

    I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and we'll get the exact path of these files to make sure that you really can visit his profile and try adding special permissions.  I suspect that the problem is that everyone is denied access and blocking everyone - but we'll check (if necessary).

    Good luck!

    Hi rockyron59, has noted the difficulty you are facing the transfer of files. So, for your current number, take note that some files which are responsible for the backup may be damaged or missing. This could be a reason why backup getting not completed. Thus, run the System File Checker tool so that it replaces the file that was detected with compatible errors. System File Checker analyzes the system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions. Run the System File Checker by visiting the link:

    I would like some advice from those who know more.   Thank you, christina

    Download the Internet OmniDiskSweeper and Grand Perspective (both free) and open them. They will show all your files and respective sizes. Transfer to an external HARD disk or remove files, that you no longer want on your MBP.

    Don't forget to empty the trash. Then only the space is allocated for the new data.

    Ciao.

    I have a Dell Optiplex 740 desktop computer, and my HDD shows full. I have all that numerous programs on my computer and wondering how to get my lower disc per cent of use in this regard?

    First, consider your player must be too small and consider its replacement.

    Second, he should know that the practical limit of the main disk is 75% of its physical capacity.  Once you start to be higher than that, performance gradually worsen until it will not work either.
