desktop.ini files are showing even after masking the BONES protected files and they are everywhere
Everything is almost described in the title
Out of nowhere this "desktop.ini" file started appearing in almost all of the folders and delete them changes icons of folders where they exist in the settings and I found that the only way to hide them is to hide one in each folder specially after finding that they are not considered "BONES protected files" by the system or it was to hide just after masking "Protected OS files" but cache the one by one is not the best option to consider, although unlike the real "desktop.ini file" in the Users\User\Desktop folder that is considered protected operating system file and mask normally with the protected operating system files.
Now, I want to just hide in a process that is not separately if possible please.
For more details:
-The content of the original "desktop.ini" file in the Users\User\Desktop folder is different from those non-hidden other those as follows:
Contents of the Original file:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[. ShellClassInfo]
LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-21769
IconResource=%SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-183
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No hidden files content:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[. ShellClassInfo]
IconResource = D:\Softwares\Icons\Metro Collection\Metro_Tiles_1\Metro ICO\System Icons\OTHERS\OTHERS\Journal.ico,0
[ViewState]
Mode =
Vid =
FolderType = generic
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Comment: The "IconResource' location changes depending on the icon of the folder where the file exists.
Hello
I found a link that doesn't address the root cause of your problem, but describes a method to hide the files with an extension of certain... The link describes a .nfo extension, but I think it would work for a .ini as well...
Instead of going into the folder as shown, go to the root of the drive itself...
http://www.SevenForums.com/customization/81717-hide-all-certain-file-type-folder-tree.html
I just did a little test, and you need to open a. CMD invite admin... IN the drive or folder you want to change... For example, open C:\ and click on FILE... The option to open a. CMD Prompt will be on the list...

I have Windows vista (64-bit). I have a WD HDD connected to a linksys E4200 wireless router. I created a music network hard disk, and every time I transfer or rip music to this reader, this "desktop.ini" file appear also in the context of each case. Is this OK to delete this file?
Desktop.ini is a hidden file, use of Windows operating systems to store folder settings. For example, you have created a music library so desktop.ini will contain the settings to indicate to the user interface to display the files in the folder differently from a normal folder. It will also contain parameters of the custom icons and names.
You can delete the file if you wish; point negative only consequence will be the loss of these parameters/customization.

I have a Toshiba laptop that runs Windows 7 with an HP printer 6 L. I am running Open Office 4.0.0 and the latest version of Adobe Reader. To date, that the system is undesirable! The 6L display test endless pages but refuses to print anything out of system 7. I dropped 6 L Driver, registry & file cleaned up and optimized the system and then reloaded the driver off of the HP site but the system refuses to print. I even went up to turn off the printer for more than 24 hours to try to get the printer to the reduction in the memory and empty the memory to zero to try to kickstart the printer to pick up the 7 material systems. Up to present all this for nothing. 6L memory is fixed at 1 024 Ko and the document larger than I tried to print has been 136 k so the memory capacity must be nothing. Anyone, anyone, outhere who can help, please. I'm ready at this stage to give up the printer with an AX, since it is now beyond the frustration and get into madness! I must also stress that the 7 system also creates a (1 copy) in the printer Panel. There is no need too!

Do you know when this problem started? Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started. Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/. Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points. If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two. NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates. You may need to re - download the pictures, but the restoration of the system normally does not affect data files so it's probably not necessary.
BTW, do not delete the desktop.ini file - this is important.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

Original title: C://Windows/Assembly/GAC/desktop.ini
A scan has detected a Trojan horse in the C://WINDOWS/assembly/GAC/Desktop.ini file but I can't access this file because it is hidden.
What is a VRU, what should I do?
Hello
- You scan of bases of safety of Microsoft or any other security software installed on the computer?
Enable the option Show hidden files and see if you can correctly view the contents of the files.
I suggest you analyze your computer Microsoft Safety Scanner, it will help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.
The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
Hope this information is useful.

Every time I start my system, the Lync appears, a modem exe shortcut. files also appears, how can I stop this?
I want to know the meaning of desktop.ini, I remove cause it's to show in most of my documents?
Your thread was started successfully in the forum comments, so I moved it to the windows 'Repair and recovery' forum where is is more on the subject. You must return to your topic and we tell which version of Windows you are using.
Look in your startup folder to see if you see Lync and modem.exe shortcuts in this folder. If so, remove them and you should no longer see these pop-ups when you connect.
You can get rid of him, but it can return. Desktop.ini is usually a file hidden, so you must have the display of hidden files and folders active if you do not see it. Desktop.ini is a file that is present in many files and it is used by the process to "customize the folder. It allows you to specify multiple behaviors to a folder and what desired icon displayed for a folder. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/cc144102(v=vs.85).aspx for a more in-depth explanation of the desktop.ini file. For certain folders such as My Documents, you should probably leave it alone. It won't hurt anything especially if you do remove it, but the folder will then behave like any other folder, you can create.

Do not delete anything because you can't get rid of the virus by deleting everything simply. You should run a virus scan. Make sure you have an antivirus premium so that you will be protected.David -

Loading the Google's HTTPS version causes Firefox to do 3 background request every 45 seconds even after closing the page.
With any other HTTPS sites that support HTTP Strict Transport Security (HST), I noticed connection only 1 history.
How can I disable these background connections?Hello, I'm no expert on the matter, but it is quite possible that the spdy Protocol, which is used by google on its secure sites (twitter atm) and is causing the behavior that you have seen.
"SPDY connections are persistent connections. For optimal performance, it is expected that clients will not close the open connections until the user navigates away from all web pages referring to a connection, or until the server closes the connection. Servers are encouraged from the connections open as long as possible, but can stop idle connections if necessary. »
http://mbelshe.github.com/SPDY-specification/draft-mbelshe-SPDY-00.XML#RFC.section.2.1You can try to disable support for the spdy Protocol in firefox (in all: config) and see if that changes the number and length of connections to the server.

I can't create an installer on LabView, after install the Vision Builder demo and then uninstall it. I can't create a Labview Installer more, he asks me an installer of generator of Vision, even if Labview my program does not have nothing to do with it...
Hi, Shada, this can happen if you include additional installers to your installer for example DAQmx. When you do this the installation program must include other files like MAX (Measuremente and Automation Explorer). Probably when you installed Vision Builder he updated MAX, so when your Installer try to understand MAX, his request the source where it was installed in your computer in this case Vision Builder.
Here you can cache information so it is not asked once again, or you can download a version more recent fo DAQmx, then it will update MAX and change the dependecy.
You can find more details about it in this KB:
