Deleted topics that... won't erase

RoboHelp 8

I work to reduce the number of topics we have in our 3000 + by taking a large number of very small subjects and adding the text of their share in a great subject with bookmarks. However, as I was working on this yesterday, RoboHelp broke on me and when I relauched it, everything that I worked an a was drizzled in pretty bad.

Here is my method for this compilation:

1 create a new topic.

2 cut and paste the individual text of each of the small subjects in the new great topic.

3. create a bookmark for each of the elements in the large new topic.

4 remove the files small topic.

5. set all links broken for new bookmarks in the new subject large file.

I had about enough step 4 when RoboHelp stopped on me without warning. Now, nearly half small topics deleted reappeared and the other half are removed, but are appearing in the list of topics with a red X through them and I can't seem to go in.

I tried to restore before the crash, but that has not helped at all. I also deleted the project locally and reloaded in RoboHelp and once again, no luck.

I tried to delete these topics of RoboSource Control, remove them from my C drive and doing a Get Latest Version everything and generate a main page layout after each step to see if these subjects really would be delete, but alas, they have simply not disappear in my project manager. When I try to delete them, I get the popup asking about removing references to other files, but after choosing my answer, nothing happens, and the subject does not disappear.

I did the same 5 steps in a different project and when RoboHelp does not plant, I don't have any problems.

Any guidance you have would be appreciated!

I had this happen also. The way I solved it is to edit the file .fpj with a text tool like Notepad and hand delete topics. The fpj file contains a list of all the topics that are expected in the folder and when RoboHelp plant it doesn't have a chance to do this clean up. The file is named .fpj (folder_name) If you have topics in a folder. If the topics are in the main directory, the file is named root.fpj. I hope this helps.

  • Delete a document in my printer that won't erase

    I sent a document to my printer and it does not print so I tried repeatedly remove but it will not erase and there my printer tied up.

    [Moved from comments]

    Hello

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forums.

    I ask you to answer this question, so that we can better help you:

    You try to delete the document or the print job?

    If you try to delete the print job, I ask you to try the following steps:

    Turn on the printer and check if the problem is resolved.

    Method 1: Check the print spooler service dependencies and check if they are started.

    Print spooler is a software program that temporarily stores the disk printing hard or in memory until the printer is ready to print.

    a. press the Windows key + R and type services.msc in the run dialogue box.

    b. locate the print spooler.

    c. right-click on print spooler , and then select PTECHNIC.

    d. click the dependencies tab.

    Find dependencies in the print spooler , and ensure that all the dependency services are running and set to Automatic.

    Method 2: If you've waited long to print a document, or if you see an error message about the print spooler, you may have to restart the spooler to print on your computer.

    a. press the Windows key + R and type cmd in the Run dialog box.

    b. at the command prompt, type net stop spooler , and then press enter.

    You will receive a message when the spooler is stopped. Now you must empty the queue.

    c. click Start , type %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\spool\PRINTERS and press ENTER.

    This will bring up the file. Delete all the files in there. (This does not damage anything.) Now, you have to restart the spooler.

    d. return to the command prompt and type net start spooler, press Enter.

    Please get back to us with the State of the question.

  • How to remove an old topic that comes up constantly in the only printed Documentation output?

    When I generate Documentation printed in my project, I get this error around a topic that I have deleted several days ago and prevent the chapter being created in Word output.

    Output View When Generating Doc.jpg

    When I go to the section for the printed Documentation configuration screens, she appears as being missing. There is no way to delete the topic while in this form.

    Printed Documentation - Chapter layout.jpg

    The theme/html file no longer in my project. I deleted the subject through the HR interface (as opposed to just delete in Windows). I have no broken links, and WebHelp output generates very well.

    Is there some file HR, I can edit in Notepad which will delete this topic one?

    Just realized you hear this arrow - that did the trick!

  • Research research topics that do not appear in the project

    I have a RoboHelp HTML project that I use to generate the CHMS for 4 different applications. I use conditional tags to define what topics to include/exclude each CHM. It worked well in RoboHelp 5, but I research with RoboHelp 7 problems.

    When I search in the compiled CHM results include the titles of the topics that have been specifically exculded CHM by tags, but also topics that are not part of this project at all. I've never merged one of my projects.

    I tried all of the suggestions I found on this site:
    * checked that there are no stray CHM file in the project folder
    * renamed and regenerated the PCD file
    * creates a new SSL file
    * editing the registry to remove the option that prevents the appearance of external link warning
    * check the XPJ file mergehelp file.

    I also installed the utility KeyTools someone suggested. When I look in the CHM file, I can see the subjects which should not be in this file - but I have no idea how they got there or how to stop their appearance.

    Please, please someone at - it suggestions - I can't think of anything to try.


    I searched for each CHM I have ever produced and deleted everything that have been stored in any folder that RoboHelp knew. The new CHM has always had the same problem.

    Response
    Finally a colleague who knows nothing on RoboHelp, but who has been listening to my growing frustration suggested I rename the top-level folder with all old topics are listed wrongly. To my great relief, it worked, but I can't help but think that it is a bug in RoboHelp 7.

  • I do not want my deleted messages automatically removed after 20 hours. I'd rather remove my deleted messages that I choose.

    All my deleted emails disappear after 20 hours after their removal by me. I want to access my emails deleted and that manually remove as I wish. Can't seem to locate a location to choose this option?

    Thank you

    Just as keeping food remains you want later in the trash, keeping the e-mail that you want to keep in the trash folder is not a good idea.
    I suggest you create a new folder for this purpose and use it instead of the trash folder. As you can see, you don't have complete control over the operation of the trash.

    My iPhone does not to import! How can I appear in the Photos and delete those that are already imported?

    My iPad appears fine with an option to import the 'new' photos and then delete them once they are imported. However my iPhone appears not at all on the pictures. Although most is already imported via the cloud, some are not, but more importantly, I would remove at least half of 30 000 photos that are taking place on my phone and a "clear items after button import" would be nice right now! I tried to turn off photo stream on my phone, but it still does not appear in the application.

    What can I do?

    Thank you!

    If you use iCloud photo library you cannot delete pictures after the import (or) - deletions on any device will be on all devices - if storage is a question about a device set to use optimized photos

    Hello

    As you are not sure of what you have removed for cause of your problems, I suggest that do you a system restore to a date before you start deleting these files, and then start carefully again, before to remove any file of dual control.

  • Outlook Express will not let me delete emails that I receive.

    Outlook Express will not let me delete emails that I receive.

    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox, if you can and move the messages you want to record off deleted items, and sent items. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.

    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

    With OE closed, find the Deleted Items.dbx and Sent Items.dbx files and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.

    Compact all folders as described below.

    To avoid this in the future:

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
