• ESXi 5.0 can join vCenter, vpxa rogue folder cannot be deleted

  Hello

  We have an ESXi 5.0 that cannot be joined to vCenter 5.1

  It fails with timeout of waiting for vpxa start.

  the problem seems to come from:

  / opt/vmware/vpxa/vpx # ls - lah

  drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 512 Mar 12:40 8.

  -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 29.7 k August 19, 2011. #vpxResultFilter.xml

  RM: cannot remove the '. #vpxResultFilter.xml ': operation not permitted

  This file cannot be deleted.

  The host has failed to join vCenter previously and the vpxa could not be uninstalled or installed.

  Please help

  Thank you

  Hi all

  I managed to solve the problem.

  It was so simple:

  Newspapers, I noticed that: when you try to join the host to vCenter, he was questioned on the vpxResultFilter.xml file and could not find it. (the file was somehow been renamed. #vpxResultFilter.xml)

  I copied. #vpxResultFilter.xml to vpxResultFilter.xml as below and voila, it worked.

  / opt/vmware/vpxa/vpx # ls-l - has

  drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 512 1 Aug 13:29.

  -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 30384 August 19, 2011. #vpxResultFilter.xml

  drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 512 10 may 2012...

  -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 30384 1 Aug 13:29 vpxResultFilter.xml

  Hope this helps someone else.

  Thank you all.

• Several files in a temp folder cannot be deleted, rename, copy, or move to XP

  I have several files in my temp folder that I can't delete, rename, copy, or move. I was hunting for them with research and it brings back me to the same temp file. The registry can not find them. I even tried to delete using BACK, but it says no file. I get no error message just bong when I try to remove it. I just tried to delete them in safe mode, it did not work.

  You can navigate to the folder in the command prompt?  From the record have you tried del *. * ?

  Run a chkdsk /f on the volume.

• Trying to remove the folders from Windows one system empty, but in error "is a Windows system folder and is required for Windows work.» It cannot be deleted. »

  My parents bought a laptop from a friend, and recently my father ran an antivirus program that came with multiple files in a folder that has been created by this friend. When you try to delete the folder a box appears that says "it is a Windows system folder and is required for Windows work.» It cannot be deleted. "But all the folders inside are empty and of no use to us. Help?

  The standard answer to questions that begin with «I bought a used computer...» "is you can do a clean install of Windows, because you know not what could be hiding somewhere in the computer.  In this case, it seems as if he is infected with something.

  Legally, the seller was required to give you a way to do this reinstall, but in the vast majority of the private sales of used computers, this requirement is simply ignored.

  If it's a laptop to 'mark' (e.g., Dell, HP, IBM/Lenovo) there may be a hidden partition on the hard drive that can be used to restore the computer to its "fresh from the factory" State.  Of course, this will remove all applications that the previous owner had installed after he or she has bought new, but you should still seriously to consider making such a restore, if the mechanism is available.

  What is the name and the version of the antivirus application that has detected the wrong files?
  What are the names of the files?
  What is the name of the folder that cannot be deleted?
  Are you logged on as a user with the rights "computer administrator" when you try to delete it?

  Assuming that you can not or will not do a clean install of Windows, I suggest the following (do not run scans at the same time, each analysis may take some time, depending on the number of files on the computer):

  Connect as a user with the privileges "computer administrator" and do a full scan with each of the following:

• I can't delete emails from outlook express, pop box says up point cannot be deleted

  I have a lot of emails and Outlook express will not let me delete one of them. A box appears and tells the message cannot be deleted?

  Deleted items is probably damaged. On the off chance that you want messages to be saved in deleted items, (a garbage can), move them to a local folder, you create and then follow these steps.

  Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

  In Windows XP, the files of user OE (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

  With OE closed, find the DBX file for deleted items and delete it.  Another will be created automatically when you open OE.

  To avoid this in the future:

  Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

  Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

  After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

  Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

  Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  In tools | Options | Maintenance: Uncheck Compact messages in the background box and let it unchecked. {N/a if running XP/SP2}.

  And backup often.

• Only files tif over a certain length (60 characters): cannot open, delete, find, change of name or anything like that

  Only files tif over a certain length (60 characters):
  I cannot open/view the with any application, cannot be deleted and can not even the name of the file to allow me to try to shorten the name. I can't copy the files or move them from their current folder.  What is going on? These are files that I saved last year. (I don't remember if I tried to open them before.) My computer is a laptop HP DV 6000 series, Media Center Edition Windows XP with ServicePak 3.

  There is a fundamental limitation in Windows that the total length of a file, including the path name cannot exceed 255 characters.  It is possible that the total path to your .tif files is something long like:
  C:\Documents and utilisateur\Mes Photos\MySummerVacationLastYear\BigFileName.tif Settings\nom
  and the total number of characters in all of this is greater than 255.

  There are two ways you can deal with that.  Use the command "SUBST" alias drive letter to the folder that contains your files.  To do this, open a command prompt window (start-> Run-> "cmd") and enter a command such as (to borrow the above, for example):

  SUBST M: "C::\Documents and Settings\nom of utilisateur\Mes Photos\MySummerVacationLastYear.

  Where "M:" is a unused drive letter and the rest is the path to the folder that contains your files.  You can now access your file using:
  M:\BigFileName.tif
  Who have significantly fewer characters in the path of your original file and allow you to access.

  A second approach is to create a folder at the root of your hard drive (for example C:\Pics) and then copy your files into this folder.  Not just any copy program can handle long copy paths (as you have discovered), but can "Robocopy" (robust copy).  You can get Robocopy without the resource Windows Server 2003 on the Microsoft Download site Kit
     <>http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=17657 >
  After copying the files, it will be a much shorter and more accessible way.  Robocopy is a command line program and must be run from a command prompt window.
  Otherwise, you might be able to move the folder containing these images in this directory at root level.

• FILE cannot BE DELETED, the file size of the file type 'file' "0 bytes"

  I downloaded a music file of myfreemp3.eu, he wasn't .mp3.  He was able to play a couple of times, but now does not open.  Now, I can't move or delete it from the downloads folder, system do not see.  its properties are of TYPE 'file' and SIZE '0 bytes.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you Ganesh and Hetti.  I just finally deleted my ghost file.  I used the safe mode and cmd.

  I went into the directory of downloads in the BACK, the used command DIR / X to find out the name of the file.

  He was ~ 1 at the end of the file name.   I used DEL filename ~ 1 and the file disappeared.  I checked the

  trash and he wasn't there either.  I rebooted the computer and found no trace of the file.

  The controls were as follows,

  CD C:\users\my name\downloads

  dir / x (to find the full file name,)

  del (to remove the file)

  I could probably use alternative command

  del *. *.

  Thank you again and maybe it helps someone else.  I ran the control with the repair disc, but that did not remove the ghost file.  I could also not delete the downloads folder.  Create the same named file with 0 bytes not working anymore.  I tried the latest version of Mandrake then.

• "Error 1714. The old version of Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable cannot be deleted. Contact your technical support group. »

  (Windows 7 64-bit)

  This can be long and winded, but I spent 5 hours trying to solve this problem.

  It all started when I tried to uninstall a program, but I kept getting the message that wanted me vcredit.msi (or something like that) I downloaded a copy of it and pointed out the program of this file, but it has always found a problem and wouldn't uninstall. (Add/Remove programs won't uninstall it not more)

  So, I moved to the installation of a new program. He repeats to me '\Temp\IXP1. TMP\ is not a valid package for the product Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005

  When I point to the vcredit.msi that I downloaded (just randomly sitting in my docs) I get "error 1714. The old version of Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable cannot be deleted.  Contact your technical support group. »

  I tried to uninstall Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable via Add/Remove Programs, but it won't let me say it does not find some programs.

  This thing is annoys the heck out of me.

  I need to set the Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable problem (looks like I need the new version 2008 or 2010?) and be able to install and uninstall programs. Which is somehow related.

  Any ideas what to do. (Please speak as clearly as possible. I'm a fool when it comes to computers lol)

  c. click change settings , and then select the Advanced tab click the environment variables button.

  d. the user variables area, click on TEMPand then click change.

  e. in the Variable value box, type C:\Temp, and then click OK twice.

  f. click applyand then click OK.

  g. follow steps 4 to 6 for the variable of environment TMP as well.

  h. confirm this folder C:\Temp exist, otherwise create a.

  i. restart the computer.

  j. attempt to install the application again.

  If the steps do not help, try the next method.

  Method 2:

  If you are comfortable in changing some registry settings, then follow the steps provided below.

• Workflow in a package without change permission content cannot be deleted

  Hello

  I use vCO 5.5 on windows. I created a package and add a workflow inside. I tried to export this product for others to use. I deselected permission modify the contents when you export.

  But after other imported my package, they can't remove the workflow directly. If I deleted the package with the content, the workflow cannot be deleted, either.

  Is this by design? Is there a way to fix this? Thank you.

  Vicky

  

  

  The only way to remove the workflow in this case is to remove the folder that contains them. However, to do this, you must update your user preferences. Under Tools-> user-> general preferences, select delete non-empty folder allowed as shown below. Once you have done this, you can remove the folder with read-only workflows. It goes the same for Actions/Modules:
