  • Why I can't move or delete files that have been used by Windows Movie Maker?

    Why I can't move or delete files that have been used by Windows Movie Maker? How to make them free again, now that I want to use the new computer.

    When you create a project in Movie Maker-.mswmm file... it
    records the path to the source (photos, videos, music) files...
    If you re-open the file .mswmm to re - edit source files...
    are not accessible if they have been moved or deleted.

    If "no" re - edit project .mswmm files...
    moving or deleting the source files is not a problem.

    If you 'are' the intention of re - edit .mswmm files but need the
    source files also... just make copies and let it
    original where they are.

  • Tried to delete files on the desktop, but it showed "Item not found"!

    I wanted to delete files on my desk. But he showed "Item not found", ask me to locate the file. But I searched the entire computer, the file is no longer exist. But he was still showing on the desktop!

    What can I do to remove them? Because they are really boring!

    Are you sure that it is a folder on your desktop and not just a shortcut (a link to the actual file)?  The actual file can be located elsewhere.

    Check C:\Users\\Desktop, and see if the files are there.  If so, try removing them from there (instead of from the desktop).  It shouldn't make a difference, but it might work.

    Try to use one of the following free products to remove the file/folder (from two places).  Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php of files (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/) or Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml.  These programs often work when normal functions remove Vista not work correctly.

    Search for files in Vista is quite different that it was with XP.  To search for a file with a normal search in Vista, it should be in the index files or types of files - otherwise it will not come to the top.  You CAN get to get to a FULL player search.  To search for the folder C: whole disk in Vista go to start / search and type in ' or '. As you type, you'll see two hyperlinks appear just above where you type and we'll search everywhere.  A click on it.  Who will do a fast indexed search and bring up a dialog box.  Click on advanced search.  Click the drop-down location and find the C: drive and click on it. Check the box "include not indexed, hidden and system files (might be slow).»  Then click on search.  You will now search your entire hard drive to the specified file.  And Yes, this isn't a very effective way to search the entire disk for a file but it is how it is done in Vista.  Once you find the file, try to remove normally and if it does not then try to use both products above to see if you have a better chance.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • I can't open the .jpg files from the desktop using "Windows Photo Gallery" as the default program. They open normally from nowhere elsewhere, but not directly from the desktop. No error, nothing happens.

    If I right click 'open with' open with other programs like IE but not "Windows Photo Gallery". It is not a specific .jpg file, this is all .jpg files. For example... I have a .jpg file in a folder on my desktop, open folder double click, it will open in the "Windows Photo Gallery". Copy and paste the SAME file on the desktop, double-click on, nothing happens. I tried to restart, change the default value of IE, open the file, it opens, by default change to "Windows Photo Gallery" doesn't work... I am confused?

  • Sudden CPU hogging + cannot delete files on the desktop

    I was with earlier FL Studio to make music, then I exported a bunch of files .wav (as separate channels) to my office. Now, there are 14 ".wav" files on my desk I have is no longer necessary. When I try to highlight all remove, a dialg box opens saying "ready to remove" then below, he has time to outbound... Calculation... and this box stays on forever without change. I try to put an end to the session, had not responding alarm and needs to restart windows Explorer. I try to delete one by one, same thing. I tried to remove/change any other file as these 14 .wav files, they all deletions or works normally, no worries. I even deleted a ".midi" file exported from the same FL Studio software without problem, which begs the question. Why can I not delete/modify(move, copy, chk properties) these 14 .wav files. Looks like Windows Explorer crashes whenever I try to delete them. Right-click on one of the files, and then click Properties, nothing happens. I tried several times after restarting Windows, same thing. Another question that occur almost at the same time, it's that I noticed my cpu (Athlon II x 4 @2. 8 GHz) has been constantly in use about 60% (on all 4 cores). For comparison in normal operation, running a demanding application such as Call of Duty 4 game uses as much (~ 60% I checked) resource CPU. Before that, when I check my cpu just after startup, it uses 0-2% now after starting, using 50-75% CONSTANTLY immediately even during moments of rest. When I check the process, a call app "dllhost.exe alias COM Surrogate" has listed 25 under CPU constantly while all other open processes are considered to be 00 or 01 under the same parameter. I tried ending the process both the process of the "dllhost.exe" tree, but it starts immediately with the same listed 25 under CPU and my CPU resource still used up to about 60%. This is all very curious because they all seems to happen at the same time and without precursor of actions/mistakes. Someone help me please to solve these problems or at least let me know what could possibly cause these symptoms.

    My specs: CPU Athlon II 630 x 4 @2. 8 GHz, RAM 8 GB DDR3 SDRAM 1333 MHz, Nvidia 9600GT GPU, Momentus XT hybrid total HDD(7200rpm/4Gb SSM) 250 GB (112 GB free), 64-bit OS Windows 7 (latest updates installed), DirectX11

    Yes, my system problems have been resolved. Sorry for taking so long to get back to you guys. After working with the engineer for a few days, we finally found a way to remove the files and stop hogging it, but it is a partial correction because the primary cause remains until Microsoft release a patch for this problem, I was not billed by the Department because he is an anomaly in the Microsoft System in addition to the cooperative solution approach.

    The only solution is to delete the problematic files and install the latest updates for Windows and all that software output of the file (in my case FL Studio). You'll need the Microsoft Windows Performance toolkit, scanned your system for the source of cpu and use PWS mem to identify files in use by dllhost, then kill all services except those who criticize. Make sure that you do not access these files on the issue. The only way to remove these problem files is back. First of all, you need to change the access right for your ACL by using the CACLS command. Once you have changed for each of the file paths you want to delete, you can delete each files * separately *. After the removal, you will need to restart your computer. then your pc should run normally with the normal CPU usage below.

    I tried all your suggestions but not in the same order! The last thing I tried before posting here was to uninstall Captivate and I was still unable to delete the file (or rename). After uninstall AND restart the machine, I was still unable to delete the file, BUT I managed to rename the file (including the extension) and delete the file!

    Thanks for getting back to me. It's a strange!

  • Deleting files facilities previous windows, using disk cleanup will disrupt the performance of windows 7?

    I have very little space on the hard drive (about 7gbts) and can win 9.3gbts by removing the previous installation files. However, I don't know if I can do it without the laptop unusable. Any solid info on the subject would be greatly appreciated.

    Files left by previous installations are just a backup in case something does not work
    work properly after reinstalling (resettlement "repair/upgrade") and they can be deleted once
    you are sure that the system works properly.
    You can also save the file to an external source like DVD (files can be moved
    in the groups to separate from the DVD) or disk external DRIVE as an extra precaution.

  • Dreamweaver CS6 uses old deleted files: How can I get rid of them?

    Hello world

    This is my first post... I have a problem which is really annoying. Using Dreamweaver CS6 on desktop Win 7-64 bit, I had outside assistance to transfer a website in html5 and CSS3. When the site was almost finished, I have imported the entire site and worked on it by myself using Dreamweaver CS6. This worked well, until I again had outside help in the index.html file. I imported the new index.html file which worked on the outside, but dreamweaver does not allow this: he continues to show the old index.html file that I had deleted before, even when I try to re - import the site etc. The web, I found that it might be useful to delete the history of files using regedit. I did and also tried my best remove every vestige of the old version, aftzer, used CCleaner and Tuneup Utilities 2014, and even once, it did not help. I thought then that the only way would be for installing Dreamweaver CS6, still clean my computer to any what rest probably filed or files .bak and then after several raises and processes of cleaning, I have re-installed Dreamweaver CS6, in the hope that it works now. However, new Dreamweaver came up with the same problem. Somewhere in the mists of your hard drive, dramweaver must always have access to the long deleted files and even once does not allow me to work on the new corrected index.html file. Anyone of you have any idea how I can get this working properly? Thank you so much in advance and greetings from the Lake District Salzburg, Giraldus

    Mr Hans-Günter,

    Dear all,

    I have a solution: I open the file 'wrong', completely leached all the HTML and JavaScript, open the actual file with firefox, then copied the code from here and pasted in the now empty index.html file. Then, I stored this one and now it works and the old .bak? copy has disappeared!

    Thanks to you, dear Hans-Gungter, and all who could probably thought about my problem with Dreamweaver.

    and the best of Salzburg Lake District,

  • Why isn't suddenly deleted files is no longer testify in Trash like they used to do

    This morning I deleted an e-mail and then realized I needed some information from it. I naturally expect to end up in the trash, as always, but when I open the trash can none of my deleted files are there. I don't have a "blank out" together. I use Thunderbird 31.4, on Windows 7 Professional. I rebooted both Thunderbird and Windows, to no avail. I have not changed my account settings or options. This has not happened before. Any help would be welcome.

    Thank you for all your efforts. As I said, I'm afraid the first link leads to an element in Swedish (I think), which was just a single line and not recognizable as something I knew. Your second link leads to an article in English (thanks) and has shown a page of "settings". I put no parameters of "Empty on exit", or something similar, which could have been what you were suggesting that I look at.

    Since then, as announced, I did an uninstall and reinstall and now all is well. I can only assume that Thunderbird somehow became corrupted. Otherwise, it's a mystery. Still a bit of an annoyance if, as I do not do not know why things happen.

    Thank you once again.
