Download folder to System32 path instead of SysWOW64 path Points

• Why my "Downloads" folder lasts more than five minutes to load? (Probably due by MSE)

  I have a very big downloads folder:
  5 419 files
  759 files
  30.0 GB

  I prefer to keep both as - is; However, recently it has started to take several minutes to load in Windows Explorer. Basically whenever I select the folder (either directly under my account user, either by a "Favorites" link), this green progress bar appears in the path box at the top... He continued slowly for a few minutes until what he finished. The real problem that is boring is that, while it is loading, I can't find (indexed), sort, or do anything. (The cursor shows that it is 'work'). In addition, it happens everytime I go in this directory!

  I'm pretty sure that the problem is with Microsoft Security Essentials. Under the resource monitor, subheading 'disc', dozens, or even hundreds of lines appear with the image of MsMpEng.exe (engine of Microsoft Security Essentials), probably one for each file in my downloads folder. In addition, I have confirmed that the problem disappears if I exclude this directory in MSE. However, I of course want to keep the downloads folder (which is probably the most important record to analyze new elements that I upload them!)

  Finally, I must point out that the column 'Date of access' is updated to the current date/time for about 1/3 of the files and all subfolders. I can't find a pattern for which files have their set "consulted" to date; However, none of these values are more than a month (although I certainly do not have access to many of these files for years.) (I.e. all my files are 'accessible' either immediately or in the past month.)

  Most likely, something to mark these files as 'dirty' every time - I access this folder, so pull up the re antivirus engine - check everything. Anyone know what could be the cause? Is that what I can do besides excluding this MSE folder?

  Thank you very much in advance for your help!

  So, how does it work if you uninstall MSE?

  You can allways then reinstall it

  UPDATE (29/07/2012) (SEE BELOW, NOT QUITE RESOLVED.  :()
  As expected, since excluding the 'downloads' folder of the MSE has worked, uninstall MSE also worked. However, I like MSE and want to analyze my downloads folder ;)
  UPDATE: I think I thought of her! In this case, I was running "Process Explorer" (Sysinternals) on Windows startup and pretty much all the time. Thinking that MSE could be analysis all programs that are running, I moved procexp.exe to another folder and set it at the start of this version.
  Once I did, MSE now allows me to open the file downloads without re - check everything.
  My life-lesson from this: If you run an executable file, make sure it is in a different directory other random files, otherwise MSE will constantly check their.
  Thanks for all your help!
  I will update this as "resolved" in a few days when I am sure that it really worked and it is not a chance.

  UPDATE (29/07/2012) :(
  Unfortunately, I see a few problems. First off, while moving ProcessExplorer for this directory he stopped the analysis of each file, each time, I opened the file, it always scans the first time I open the directory each tile. Only after waiting five minutes the first time I can then move freely in this directory. Of course, this is not ideal.
  
  
  I did some follow-up work on this:
  
  
  • I completely uninstalled MSE. Obviously, it worked. However, I then installed the antivirus NOD32. Guess what? It still freezes when opening the downloads folder! This time, instead of the hundreds of lines of "MsMpEng.exe" - billing in the resource monitor, I see hundreds of lines "ekrn.exe! (I.e., it does the same thing!)
  • I actually just moved into a new downloads folder. I found that can be summed up these kinds of folder names. (I.e., I was able to have a new folder that is displayed when I select "[UserName] / downloads.") In other words, when you download things, it appears exactly the same thing, I'm just getting started with a new directory. However, even if the library and the user subpath now point to the new folder, I change not the absolute path to my old files directory. This way I can keep the countless maps/executable shortcuts, etc. in this mega-file.
  
  
  I still think I've hit on something fundamental here. I hope I've learned why I'm causing AV systems across this large number of files, hay son as he shouldn't be testing of thousands of files that haven't changed.
  
  
  Thanks again!

• Unable to show the downloads in the downloads folder

  I bought and downloaded video clips. They are in the Firefox downloads folder. I can play them when the clips are downloaded, but after 24 hours, if I right click and try to open the folder containing, it is grayed out. I noticed that they are placed in my Temp folder on drive C when you first download. Once I've saved the file to the Temp on My Documents folder and returns to it and able to play. It occurs to me, I maybe made a fundamental error when download begins. I wonder if I want to play on Windows Media Viewer and there is also the alternative of a backup option. I assumed that all the downloaded files may be automatically saved in the file download Firefox. Should I have selected the button 'save' instead? There seems to be that no security no questions because the size and location of the file details always appear under the file name.

  If you choose to play the files as they are uploaded in the temp folder and can be deleted at any time.
  If you want to keep them then you must register first to another location before you play them or copy them to the temp folder.
  The latter may not work correctly if.

• Is it possible to recover a word file that is saved to the downloads folder, but who was later removed at the close of mozilla?

  Yes, I searched on how to possibly get a word document that has been lost. Unfortunately, I did not save backups, so I did that.

  Other people asking if you can recover the lost data of download folder that has wiped got a "no, cannot it" answer, but it's not good enough for me.

  I know that when these files have been deleted, they have not get shredded and with corresponding software that can recover files from sqlite database stores data, you can get the data back. My question is, how can I retrieve my document from a sqlite file word file? Also, how can I identify with most recent files sqlite that erased on my computer?

  Thank you

  Hello, firefox does not save your downloaded files in a sqlite database, but directly in the download on your disk directory. what you might be able to extract your downloads (ctrl + j) history is a url to a file for the re - download.
  You can also try running a program like "recuva" to restore material deleted on your drive, but it is out of the scope of support for mozilla products...

• How to change the download folder?

  I use firefox for android and I couldn't change the (default) download folder.
  It should be added in order to change this setting, I think.

  Unfortunately, this solution does not work. First of all, there is no browser.download.lastDir on Fx Android, and even if build you it, it seems that it is ignored.

• SUSPICIOUS. DOWNLOAD SAFARI FILE IN THE DOWNLOAD FOLDER

  HELLO, FOR SOME TIME I FOUND SEVERAL. DOWNLOAD FILES IN MY DOWNLOAD FOLDER: ILS WEIGHT RANGING FROM 20 TO 100 KB AND WHEN I TRY TO OPEN AN ERROR WINDOW DISPLAYS, EVEN THE INFORMATION THEREON ARE USELESS, I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THEY CAME FROM... IS IT A VIRUS OR WHAT? ANY CLUE?

  Thank you

  

  Well, if there are some suspicious files "downloaded" in box you then you must NEVER open them because if they are a virus then it's not on your computer. not the reason why I said 'download' with the ' ' is because hackers have a way of putting false downloads in your box, then when you open them they give you the virus. in other words, they could get them you now is if you have opened a strange e-mail that you didn't know who it was, since, they could put a simple hack on your computer to download the fake files which contain the actual virus. So what I would do, is go to apple and ask them to look at and make sure that everything is ok.
