Files found: WIPETEMP1 with 246,1 GB
Hello
My system: Dell Dimension 9200; Windows XP SP3
Defragmentation of the race, I discovered a very large amount of defragmentation that defrag does not. I was surprised to find 306.8 GB of used space on my hard drive Go 465,8. I expected to see only about 75-100 GB used space.
Then I ran WinDirStat to identify what has been using space and discovered a huge 246 GB file: WIPETEMP1.
I don't know what it is. It's a system file? Is it supposed to be there or not? Can / should I remove it? Is it safe to delete? Where did this come from? Properties shows it as being created April 24, 2012.
I'm desperate to know how to handle this and very scared about the risk he poses.
Any help and advice will be appreciated.
Thanks and greetings

There is no file called WIPETEMP1 XP system.
You use all third party tools on your system for the types of cleaning/maintenance of things?
My first inclination would be to whack it, but why don't you just rename into something he can remember like:
WHACKIT
Restart and run for a few days, or until you feel comfortable that there is no problem if the called file WIPETEMP1 does not exist and if there is no problem, then hit it.
Because you posted also in the Dell forums, what do say?

Unknown file found by EtreCheck - need help to decipher!
Hi, I run Yosemite 10.10.5 on a Macbook Pro 15 mid-2010 "
Tonight I continued to get the beachball, while everything seemed frozen. When activity began to return that all of the apps I had open failed - mail, photos, safari, activity monitor - so I force, I found the leaves from the dock. I then reopened safari & ran EtreCheck. I copied the report here that I hope someone can help me decrypt. I wonder more about the unknown file found & don't know what to do - my technical/computer language skills are sorely unfortunately.
Cheers :)

File is associated with another photo in the catalog?
Hi all
I got LR4 running on a laptop computer and an external hard drive to store my images. I bought an imac and upgraded to 5. I also bought a new large external hard drive and copied all my images on the new drive.
I created a new catalog and began importing images and everything was fine. Then I wanted to work on an old image and couldn't find it so plugged the old hard drive and there's DNG format.
Now, I'm back on the mac, and most of my catalog went gray. I and exclamation mark in the corner! the nail of the thumb. It says it cannot locate the file. If I found the file nothing happens, so I try once Mithraeum locating in exactly in the same place and this time it says the file is associated with another photo in the catalog?
My a few catalogs are a mess, I know. I don't really understand the whole import/DNG/catalog file, storage system. So I watched a tutorial on a combination of catalogs I want just one master, used on my mac, stored on my drive. So, I created a master and used catalog "import from another catalog. I've lived and all imported, so all of my images are in the new catalogue, but most of the images is still grey!
I used the thought of plugin of duplicates which could clean it upward, but no, still the same.
I worked on that a lot of my DNG files are on my old drive in a TEMP folder. I have to sort, move them to my new hardrive and bind them to the images? In addition, to solve the problem together "associated with another photo in the catalog.
Then I can remove the old catalogs (such as a backup has been configured on an another new disc!) and I'm all clean and go back to sleep!
Any help will be much appreciated and I hope to end my life of youtube tutorials!
Thanks Mark.
Mark, take a look at this point by Julianne Kost.

.indd files not associated with indesign
I tried searching for this problem and found people with the same problem, but no solution.
I have a computer which has XP SP3 and Creative Suite 3. At the beginning that I couldn't have the indd files to associate with indesign, types of files, it would allow me to select the indesign.exe, I hit ok, but then nothing is changed. Finally, thanks to the deletion and recreation manual, I have related to indesign indd files, but now, it opens that indesign, it does not open the file. It's like I'm just opening indesign. (BTW - to get the association I have created a new association and simply don't have c:\...\indesign.exe, so that's probably why it only opens the program and not the file)
Everyone can see how to solve this problem?
Thank you
It should resemble the following (including the quotation marks):

iCloud drive text files being opened with numbers
Before, everything worked fine with text files (.txt files) I have in iCloud drive.
A tap on iCloud drive and another click on a text file on my iPhone would open the file Notes.
From some point on (I think I got the same text file open at the same time on my Mac and my iPhone) iCloud drive to text on my iPhone files are opened with numbers.
Later, when I type a text file to the iCloud drive on my iPhone I have numbers open this file.
When I press the information next to the name of text file icon, I get a screen of info saying at the top of the right page "open in numbers."
I have the text file is a file in format (.rtf), there is no problem; Notes opens this file; and the Info screen, top right, for this file says nothing about the application that will open the file.
This only happens on my iPhone; I have a 5 s, 64 GB, with the latest iOS 9.3.1
On my Mac everything works fine.
I tried a "Reset all settings" but that did not work.
No idea of what is happening and how to fix?
Even. .txt files will open in figures on iOS of the iCloud drive. Why is this and can it be changed?

I have OS X 10.11, El Capitan, on MacBook Pro.
I would like to have TWO offices and one with my files to work with personal folders.
How can I do this?
I looked at spaces, but it seems to work only with windows, no records.
"with my work folders and the other with personal folders": you can not do this.
The best method is to create two accounts: a personal and a professional. What accounts are for. Pass from one to the other may takes 2 seconds.
