• Explorer.exe keeps the name change, deletion etc. of media files.

  I do not know in which category falls THIS problem...
  Feel free to sort where it belongs to.

  The next thing happen very often:

  I can't rename a file or folder. It is not the permissions. It's allways explorer.exe locks the file. Logging and turn it on again solve the problem most of the time, so I can remove/rename the file Explorer. In cases where this does not work I opening of session and closing session again, open a cmd.exe shell and remove the file without problem.

  The types of files are .wma, .wmv, .mp3, .avi .jpg etc. all types of typical media files + a few others.

  If the source of the problem is continuation of behavior:
  Vista explorer.exe opens the file for read the news there, like extif of information in files .jpg, like mp3-ID3-tag, etc etc.
  Can we prevent the explorer.exe to open these files for playback and the verification of the information? Win XP, one way to solve it (partially) which was to unregister the shmedia.dll, in Vista, it seems to be "" wmploc. "." DLL", but I prefer first an email of confirmation.

  It's even worse with .exe files, where allways Vista (and XP) open the file to check for the icon resource, so on slow network, this leads to serious problems.

  Questions are...
  1. How can it be prevented that Vista opens various types of multimedia files to check their content and hang in part to the fact that (rename/delete prevention)?
  2. can it be prevented that Vista opens all .exe files to search for an icon resource, especially on the VPN or ANY network connection? I do almost all my (via VPN) stuff filecopy in a shell because I know that explore crashes after a few seconds due to this behavior.

  KB956592 is already installed, it helps a little, but only a little because it isn't the navigation folder that really does hang, it is the action of file - open (especially with the .exe).

  Before ask you: I have already change one of the biggest disadvantages of vista (this .reg file should explain itself if easy to do in words) so he checks any way content of the media due to the "automatic file type detection", but it always opens these files when they're accidentally hovering over these files and so crashes on certain files or make the undeletable and unrenameable.

  This kind of thing is confirmed by vista resource monitor and pious sysinternals (now wininternals) tools, I see that explorer.exe is the culprit.

  Don't worry, I still prefer Vista on XP :), it's just that he needs (such as XP and ALL other OS, no exception of Linux here!) adjustments for ease of use.

• Need help with the removal of the media files on my personal computer

  I downloaded a media file and try to delete but asking special permission on my own computer and he repeats to me try again. I need help to remove this media file. Thank you very much

  You could try renaming the file, including the extension and then delete. Which can sometimes do the trick.
  If not, what type of file is and what about size? And logged as administrator?

• Cannot delete the program files x 86

  Hello
  I upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 7 32 bit 64 bit.

  This is still a Program Files x 86 folder that I am trying to get rid. I managed to remove most of the files, and I was able to change the permission of owner so I can delete some other files.

  However, no matter how I change ownership and permission, I am unable to remove Adobe files and common files.

  Thanks for your suggestions, tips.

  You still need the x 86 folder.  If it was the 32-bit "remains", he would have the x 86 in the name of the folder.  This file is required and is used by many points of 32 bits, which are present in the base 64-bit OS, as objects of assistance of the browser plugins like flash and all the 32-bit programs you run (as all programs in the world, almost, like email clients, email programs, media players, etc.).

  Do not delete this folder.

  If it was useful, you can vote by clicking on the green triangle. If it solves the problem, click on propose as answer. Thank you!

• Storage of media file in the memory of the phone blackBerry Smartphones

  I'm puzzled. The assumption that the memory of the smartphone (I have an a BB 8310) would store media files for example tunes, or at least some of them, but every time I try and drag a file from the Media Manager in the memory of the device, according to me, a message appears saying that there is not enough disk space. I only just bought the article, so I don't see how this could be possible. Is this a fault on my phone or they can be stored in a multimedia card (which I don't have yet)? Can someone help me with this, sorry I'm not a complete technophobe, it's just that NOWHERE in all the advice I have read it say NOTHING clear on this subject.

  If you want to transfer multimedia files to the device, it is recommended that you purchase a microSD for storage of media. According to me, there is a limit of 2.86 MB file size when you transfer media files to the main memory of the device. Also, when you start to store multimedia files in main memory of the device, it eats memory, which can cause problems like the logs of calls and messages deleted to save space.

• Beginner problem - too cache media files

  I started to edit files .m2ts with 12 EP on a 8.1 Windows laptop with a hard drive into 2 partitions.

  I make a film with an expected 110 minutes and right now almost half length is. I divided it into 11 smaller projects, with an average length of 10 minutes. I mean, I intend to create 11 files which I can join in a separate project, because the laptop is not powerful enough to handle everything in a single project.

  When it comes to these files created by 12 EP, I use the default preferences. I mean, media caching of files in a folder on the C: partition and the rest in the same folder as the project on the D: partition and .m2ts files

  Today, the computer warned me that I was running out of space on the C: partition. I decided to check what would happen if I said EP to delete media file cache. 17 GB of files have disappeared.

  So, I realized that I am in an awkward position. To change, I must have the media cache files, but there is not enough room for them on the C: partition.

  What should I do? Should I go in all my 11 projects, change preferences for media cache files are on D: partition instead of the partition C:? I just wrote, I'm in the middle of this project, so I don't know if it's realistic to change the location of the media cache files.

• Why still keep plant and where are the media files?

  I have big problems with that time again.  I have developed a DVD pretty complex with something like 20 films on this subject.  Video files associated with those movies are all in .wmv format; about 4 GB total in size and are stored on an external drive, as is the file yet with whom I am creating this DVD.  This drive has a USB connection on my computer that I know is not the best but I managed to create an earlier version of this DVD without problem.

  The problem now is that still keeps crashing.   In addition, in the process, a lot of space is gnawed on my 'C' drive  I don't know why this is and where to go to remove these files.  I defragged my computer and my anti-virus scans are up to date.  I am running windows XP Home Edition o/s with an Intel pentium 4 CPU, 2.79 ghz with 2.5 GB of RAM.  I went to edit > Preferences > Media > location in again and got my media files are on my C drive in Adobe > library but, when I looked at, they don't seem to be there.  Super frustrating!   Also my computer is super slow too.   I deleted all temporary files and there is no spy software to speak, according to my virus scan software (Panda).

  Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?  Thank you very much!

  How much free space on C?  On the outside?  I also worked successfully with even on an external USB key.  but is too full may be troubled.

  Maybe the files you are looking for is here: C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Adobe\Common

  I guess you're running CS4; is that correct?

• iCloud Installation hangs on deleting of backup files

  If I go crazy.  Tried to install a new version of iCloud in many different ways and it keeps hanging on 'delete backup files '.  I searched on the Internet and each suggestion appears to be for a few years, not always on Windows 10. But my problem is happening in 2016 and is still ongoing.

  I am running windows 10.  I completely uninstalled all the programs Apple. I'll try to reinstall iCloud and every time it stops on deleting of backup files. I did it in airplane mode and when you are connected to the Internet.

  Any help / thoughts?

  Hi ManowarNYC,

  Thanks for your question.  I'm not sure what you mean by

  Tried to install a new version of iCloud in different ways

  So, I'll start by suggesting the implementation of the instructions below:

  Set up and use iCloud for Windows

  Confirm that you have uninstalled the previous version to iCloud for Windows, and you install the 64 bit to iCloud for Windows version for your operating system Windows 10.

  Take care.

• Time Machine, delete the old files from MacAir?

  We had a MacAir and a MacPro at home and both were using backups time machine on our 2 TB Time Capsule. I sold the MacAir and replaced by a new MacBook. Can I delete the backups Time Machine of old MacAir and make room on my time Machine 2 TB for Macbook? I get a message of disk space for the first backup of the MacBook.

  Can I delete the backups Time Machine of old MacAir and make room on my time Machine 2 TB for Macbook?

  Yes you can.  Your next question may be 'how' to do it.

  Use the Finder to open the disc Time Capsule, named "Data", except if you have renamed the reader

  Here, you will see two files sparsebundle, each bearing the name of Mac, who has been the object of a backup

  Click on the name of the sparsebundle file on behalf of the Mac to highlight the file

  Click the gear just above the window, and then click place in the trash

  He is not coming back, so make sure that you delete the correct file.

  Once the deletion over... it should only take a few minutes... Turn off and restart the time Capsule and you should be all set.

  You deleted a Windows file system file, or a folder of bookmarks in Firefox?

  If you delete a folder in the Windows file system, normally it goes in the trash. See: ws.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/recover-files-recycle-bin#1TC=windows-7

  Edit: This link got cut off, here it is again: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/recover-files-recycle-bin#1TC=windows-7

  If you have deleted a folder of bookmarks in Firefox, and if you have not closed out of Firefox, you can undo the change in the Library dialog box. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + b
  • Menu button bookmarks > show all bookmarks

  In the menu/toolbar of the dialog bar library search organize (the first menu) and use Undo. You may need to use several times if you have made other changes after that.

  Any progress?

• How to remove and delete a downloaded file

  How can I remove and delete a downloaded file. I downloaded a large file a PDF I want to remove

  You open the folder via the context menu of the PDF file?

  That should open the folder where you saved the file in Windows Explorer and there you can delete (delete) the file.

• I want to delete temporary internet files. Note that I did not clear the cache. It does not work! How can I delete temporary files? Why did you take this feature? VERY frustrating that you would do that!

  I'm looking for how to remove the temp int files and continue to flow upward with the nonsense of "empty the cache". This isn't what I searched. Clear the cache does NOT remove temporary files. Why do you want to take this feature here?

  Firefox uses or not delete temporary internet files which use IE and a few plugins. Firefox uses the Cache if you are using Firefox on Windows, Mac OSX, Linux or some other OS.
