files and folders are missing

Similar Questions

• Certain files and folders are not detected by Windows Explorer (XP).

  I created 15 files in a folder on a shared network drive, associated with another computer. My computer is running XP x 64 v. 2003 SP2, and the computer server (the one with the shared drive) has v.2002 XP Pro (32-bit) SP3.  When I open the folder in Windows Explorer I see only 12 folders. When I tried to rename one of the 12 visible files to match the name of one of the 3 missing files I get an error (file exists!). What is all too weird, when I select all and delete 12 deleted records and previously missing 3 appears.

  Has also had a similar problem with entire folders. The Explorer does not see the folder but when I create a shortcut by typing the path of the folder manually and click on the shortcut, the name of the file appears in Solution Explorer!

  All files and folders are visible when I connect on the 32-bit computer. There is no difference between the files/folders regarding the permissions or security settings are concerned. Other users have experienced the similar problem. I tested this on 2 other computers on the same network. On a 32-bit computer, everything works fine, but on another 64-bit computer, I get the same question of file disappears.  It seems to suggest some incompatibility between Windows XP 32-bit and 64-bit XP systems.  Any suggestions how to fix it? It's really frustruting...

  The files appear when you refresh the Explorer window by pressing F5 (or view-> Refresh)?

  If so, this article may help:

  Well we are all learning, sometimes doing unwise things :(

  If you can not use a restore point, and the moving process simple origonal location cannot be done.

  I would like to copy your files to external data, make sure that you have the keys that can be required for programs, then start with a win clean installation, deleting all partitions during the process, and then using the entire disk for C space.

  You can different circumstances redirect your libraries only to another drive, other than C.

• Model e9300z #AZ217AV-ABA: help! All files and images are missing. Empty programs

  My PC for 3 1/2 year, has been very slow for a few days. He actually hung online last night and I had to physically stop. I turned everything on time and the screen says welcome to HP as if it were a brand new computer. The homepage is not the usual.  I clicked on the Chrome and the display shows Bienvenuechez Chrome and how to put in place. Ditto for Mozilla Firefox.  Then I go to files and they are empty. Documents and photos. went. Family tree maker is there, but it also gives me the Welcome screen. I went to the original Image and it says that it has been changed in 2013 - day and the year of purchase. It seems empty. It's as if my computer has been deleted.  I backed up a month or two ago and I was actually going to save last night, but when he hung up, I turned it off. I thought that the original Image was a return to the top.  I have Norton AntiVirus.

  What can I do to recover my files? Any suggestions? Can I have a virus? or what happened? Can I fix it myself? A computer store can recover files? I'm typing this on my work laptop. Because I don't know about the use of the computer.

  Thank you all very much.

  I unplugged the computer because I was worried that if the hard drive was not, that its use could write on previous data. In addition, the power in the House going on and off for a reason any. Since I'm not tech savy, I decided to hire a computer programmer rather than trying to back up my hard drive by using the adapter by myself. When the computer was reconnected overnight by the computer guy, he came as usual. All my files and pictures were back. The screen looked normal.  Yay! The computer guy said my hard drive was fine, but the computer probably had a virus 'Lotus '. I have Norton Anti virus. He ran a few malware research programs and found some viruses. It works fine now. Hope it stays like that. Thanks for the help.

• All my desktop files and library are missing in Windows 7

  Need help, I have a windows 7 Ultimate OS on an old Dell XPS of 3 years. Operating system implemented at level of Windows Vista home for more than a year. Last week, when I connected, I noticed that all my desktop files were missing. Library of the missing files (including photos, videos, music & docs). Whats funny is that none of the files are missing. However, all possible files in each folder are missing. There is no way that I could have them was deleted by mistake, can not think of a keyboard shortcut to clear all the files, but leave the files. I run avast antivirus, set to day & works perfectly well. No application installs & the only windows update I see around this event was for MS silverlight.

  I backed up all possible files using a recovery agent & the thought of doing a clean reinstall of the operating system. PS - My research on the net has returned no results for this problem. Looking for all entries before going to come & clean clean my system. THX in advance
   
  * original title - need help with Windows 7, all the missing files *.

  Here are the steps I recommend:

  1. Open the computer and open your folder C:\Users.
  2. Right-click on the folder of your user name and select Properties.  Unset as hidden, and then click OK.

     You will be asked what you want to apply the changes.  Choose JUST THE FOLDER.  Although it seems appropriate, are not select subfolders, because some things down there, including the appdata folders and as such, must be hidden.

  3. Then go inside your userfolder and select all your folders accessible by the typical user (downloads, Documents, photos, video, etc.) and disabled the option down on those.  This time, pouvez you use the option 'apply to all subfolders and files '.
  That will get you squared away back.

• Files and folders are much more difficult to manage than XP. Why?

  Well, this Windows 7 is a real bastard. All the good things that XP had disappeared and the bad bits left in. Why can I not move the autour files? There is no button move. I can copy the file, but it means that I have to remove it from the current location.

  With XP, I was able to bring the record down to the file and fill it from there. You may arrange the folders and files in any case I liked, not now if. It seems that all of this is intended to the strict alphabetical list only. In any case, I could change it?

  Drag the files into folders is a bit in the dark. Your just about file in a folder and then change page. Oops, wrong file! When I record a file a file scrolling will turbo, Zipper directly past the folder that you want to place the file in. It is difficult to scroll slowly, without the roller past stupid. It does not help with this PC laptop HP Compaq Presario, with its sensitive task of turbo on the touchpad. Very poor design.

  You can ignore the structure of theiir library. Yes!. It just requires time to learn the ways around what they have done. After 6 weeks, I'm there.

  This tip was very helpful because it can give you the equivalent of any shortcut Win + E to any folder on any drive, but.

  http://www.Dummies.com/how-to/content/how-to-create-a-custom-toolbar-on-the-Windows-7-TA.html

  You always have a movement of file command in Windows 7, which is accessible by selecting Edition from the menu bar.

  You can add the move to folder command in the context menu of Windows Explorer.

• When I download MP-3 CD on Amazon they do not appear in the library? The library settings are supposed to monitor the directory that files and folders are in changes or additions. Any ideas?

  Windows 7 Home premium 32-bit

  Windows Media player 12. 7601 17514

  new files are in mp3 format, but it's the default save setting in Media player.

  File crashing in devices and can be loaded onto many mp3 players. They simply never appear in the windows Media Library music. Maddening. Everything began to happen maybe a year ago. Wish I could pin in an event. Ripped CDs go into library very well.

  Update. The solution is to

  I could not delete files until I went into safe mode. Once this has been done the library is rebuilt with all the missing files.

• Why some files and folders are highlighted in blue?

  I transferred my data using transfer windows easy before formatting my hard drive. After re-installation, I noticed that some files in drive C are highlighted in blue. My first question is why am I seeing this?

  Blue and files are compressed. (Make a right click, properties > advanced).

• problem with the Finder - files and folders displaying incorrectly

  After acquiring a new iMac, I noticed a problem with the Finder - files and folders are displayed wrong (see table).

  This is what happens always after the files have been transferred from one folder to another. I was reminded of my days of using Mac OS in the 1980s when automatic setting of files was not so "automatic." I use Mac OS for decades and I don't remember the last time I had to think about GUI problems like that.

  Other problems in the graphical display of files and folders were introduced, such as when you have hundreds of files in a single folder, you end up deleting about 30 to 40 of them say in a particular section, and you end up with gaps of the ChartSpace where files used to be, that is the remaining files automatically rearrange themselves (fill in these gaps) - never. A week later, you open the folder, and the gap of GUI is still there.

  I decided to do a clean install of the operating system but nothing works.

  Is there some setting in Prefs I'm missing?

  

  Hi there highland99,

  Looks like your folder icons are not accommodating themselves automatically you plan to do. To me, this indicates that you have organize by the None value in the view menu. You can change the way files and folders are prepared automatically by clicking on view > reorganize by and selecting how you would like that fixed.

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

• All files and folders show hidden after virus corrupted hard drive XP

  I recently got a virus on my laptop which made all the files and folders hidden and says that my hard drive is damaged. I managed to get rid of the virus, but all my files are always hidden. I went to my computer and made sure all the hidden files are visible. This fixed the problem a bit. My main problem now is that all my files and folders are slightly transparent. It's a more of a nuisance than a real problem. I downloaded a program that would allow me to change each file in groups, but it would take an extremely long time to go by a record throughout my entire computer. I was wondering if there is any means possible to put all my files and folders hidden not Hidden to get rid of their transparency.

  Thanks for any help you can give.

• Files and folders invisible

  I have recently started using a computer with Windows XP 64 bit and have noticed that the records seem to "disappear" at will.  The folder and or file, I try to access is there, but neither Windows Explorer nor the program, I am trying to access find them since.  However, if I move on a 32-bit computer, the files and folders are clearly visible. I made sure that all hidder files or otherwise are set to be read.

  What can I do?

  Hi ndsmaug,

  1. have you tried to search for the folder?
  2. how many partitions you have?
  3. all partitions are visible in Windows XP 64-bit?

  Step 1: We recommend that you search for files and folders to see if the result of the research shows them.
  see How to search for files and folders in Windows XP .
  b. search for files and access.

  Step 2: Check if the problem persists in safe mode
  a. see the description of the options course in Windows XP Startup Mode
  Hit and b. Select safe mode enter.
  c. once the computer boots to the desktop successfully, check if files and folders are visible.

• Show hidden files and folders option does not

  I'm trying to access a hidden folder, C:\programdata\... I can't see it in Explorer. When I go into control panel > folder options > discovers... the option box to display hidden files and folders is already selected.

  I tried to change this option to not display hidden files and folders by selecting the radio button, and then clicking on apply. Then I exit the menu display. However, when I return to the menu display the radio button beside display hidden files. That is to say it is not "saved" change.

  I changed other elements in the advanced example view menu Hide extensions of known file types, and it works very well.

  I was not able to find this problem in the forum. Of course, I have restarted my pc. I don't know when this problem was that I don't often get this hidden folder.

  I am running vista home premium 32 bit

  Thank you
