Download Windows files in folder

I have a number of large Windows files in my download for example folder. Can Windows 6.0 - KB 948465 I remove these.

Yes, the download folder is made for you: stuff you downloaded using your Internet browser.  It is not used by the operating system.  So if you do not need the file (if you use it), you can remove it.

If you're unsure of a file, you can send it to the Recycle Bin and leave it there for a while.  If you don't need it after a week or two, you know it's safe "empty trash" and delete the rest of the way.

  • Downloads slipped and fell from the download window of Firefox in Outlook email show text file location.

    I have a user who normally can drag the Firefox download window files in an e-mail message in Outlook and creates this file as an attachment in the e-mail message. However, in recent times, the moved .pdf or other record shows only upward as a location of text file as:

  • Firefox opens an Explorer window when I download a file

    Firefox has started recently to open a window of the Explorer, whenever I have download a file. It's better Explorer, actually, since I use that to replace the version of Microsoft. The folder that opens is the destination target. Thus, it creates several tabs, but I expect that it will open just to the top of multiple instances of Windows Explorer if that's what I used.

    So if I download a dozen pictures, I get a dozen tabs open. This does not happen with IE or Chrome. I have several extensions installed, but I went through the options of Firefox and all relative to the downloads and none of them seem to have anything that could cause this. I checked from the Applications under the Firefox Options tab, which seemed to be a likely cause. But I don't see anything. And I don't remember changing anything recently, anyway. I can't see anything in the Explorer best that would cause this behavior. That is borne out by this is not occurring in other browsers. And I have not changed anything there, either.

    I tried to download something with NetVideoHunter and I get the same behavior. But this does not happen with DownloadThemAll!

    I tried search it online, but queries that I use are apparently too similar to those of other issues, because nothing of what happens is still close to my problem.

    As it becomes very annoying, any help would be greatly appreciated. Firefox is my favorite browser and I am not prepared to give up on this. But I'd hate to reinstall it, since I set up just the way I want it. And I'm not even sure who could solve the problem.

    Thank you

  • I downloaded Windows XP from the Windows Service Center. It is an exe file. How can I extract this to a disc and burn I can install it?

    I downloaded Windows XP from the Windows Service Center. It's a .exe. When I click on it, it is extracted to a folder I called "xp". How can I obtain these data on a disk to install XP from a CD? Should what steps I take? I am running Windows 7.

    original title: Burning a disk XP

    Putting aside if the 64-bit version of XP is what you need, when you ran the exe, the file that was extracted (i.e., in the folder named "xp") should have been an ISO file.

    Files ISO are CD images and are intended to be burned (NOT copied) to a writable CD.

    Assuming that you have the correct hardware (CD burner), you can burn your ISO as described here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Burn-a-CD-or-DVD-from-an-ISO-file

    Note that what you downloaded is NOT "Windows XP Mode" which is available for use with Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition.  The image you uploaded is for installation on a separate computer (or in a dual-boot configuration) - assuming you have the required license keys.

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.
