**********************************************************************

I have Windows 7 on a HP laptop.  On a file that I wanted to delete, I clicked and selected 'delete '.  You could see the process run, and no error message appears.  Unfortunately, the icon disappeared.  When I try right click and delete it again, a message appears saying that it is not found, that it is no longer on the desktop check the location and try again.

I tried the following without a bit of luck:

1. right click, delete
2. highlight delete key
3. highlight, control/delete
4 drag / drop to trash - it does nothing at all... not even the normal error message.
5. make a right click, refresh
6. right click, sort
7. try to rename the folder, error message appeared... once again.
8 used Unlocker
9 file Assassin
10 removed and reindexed files
11 défragmentée HD
12. started in Safe Mode - always there
13. I tried to delete it in Mode safe
14 tried to delete via BACK
15 Ran Avast Antivirus - nothing
16 ran Malwarebytes - nothing
17 Ran disk cleanup
18 ran SuperAntiSpyware - nothing
19 Ran Hitman Pro - found only cookies and remove those who
20. at ran MicrosoftFixit.WinFileFolder.Run - fixed any weird icon & recycle bin questions
21 Ran CCleaner
22 ran Microsoft Safety Scanner - nothing
23 analysed using sfc scannow - fixed some things, but not what I wanted to fix!  Laughing out loud
24. search HD for the file thinking it could have been moved to another place, but nothing came.
25. I can't go back to an earlier backup because he is not a previous backup to roll back to.
26 remove copies of each of the three offending files from my external hard drive without problem, hoping that this will allow me to only remove the office... no luck.

Whenever I ran scans, I always include my external HD.

Try everything what I have always said that the file is not found because it is no longer in this area.  Is there a shell office that I can remove and when I restart my computer it will automatically rebuild that shell, remove the offending files/folders?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I need to get this file on my desktop!  I have a total of THREE folders of files that will not delete.  There are no files in the files.  There is no HIDDEN in the files files.  It is as if the Windows desktop has a problem and will not erase these three folders icons.

Once again, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I guess that would explain why the picture is so small to fit on an e-mail, you got a larger file.

  • Shortcut on the desktop for Windows Defender

    Hello. I have Windows 7 starter on my netbook and want to create a shortcut on the desktop for Windows Defender. However, it does not appear as a program in the start menu and the option to display the control panel more big or small icons is greyed out (i.e., not available in starter edition), I don't see the program on the control panel or the other. The only way I can get to it is to type in 'Defender' in the search field in the start menu or the search field on the control panel. Although one of these actions will locate Windows Defender, they do not provide me the ability to create a shortcut for the application. I tried searching in Program Files on the C drive and found him, but did not know which file right-click on the folder to create a shortcut file. If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it.

    Second, Windows Defender is updated analysis scheduled around 02:00 every morning, but my computer isn't on then, I expect to do a scan automatically the next day when I turned the computer back on. He did not do that and always displays the last analysis as being the manual I did the day before. Is it possible to get auto-start if it misses its slot 02,00 regular?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Thank you both for responding: I did click right and do drag the thing like that seemed simpler and it worked: thank you. Are you able to let me know how to get the Defender to make an auto scan when I turn on the computer if it misses its slot 02,00?

    Thank you.

    I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1:

    You can try to check if the problem occurs in safe mode and check if it helps.

    Method 2:

  • Deleted items of the project, but still on display on the timeline

    While archiving of a project in CS5.5, I first clicked "delete unused ' to cut down on the weight of the dead. Curiously, it removed ALL my clips of images. Even more strange is the fact that nothing shows as "offline". The timeline still plays with all the elements that were in it. When I select a clip in the timeline panel and click on "Reveal in project", it can not because there is absolutely no video footage in the project window. There are no views either, for the whole timeline has a red bar, and selection to "Remove files restore" is not yet available because it has not noticed.

    I went ahead and did a "collect files and copy to the new location. The sequences are intact with clips showing, but there is absolutely no clips of AVI (Cineform) in the folder 'copied '.

    If I is not support for a component in the Assembly and rename it, I start over body and clip shows offline. So there is still a reference media, even without a clip to make it in the project window. And no, the part of my project is not filtered.

    The problem would be a specific problem of the project if you are not able to replicate on a new project.

    Just the file of the project which has been corrupted.

    Certainly not a bug in the product!

  • New Firefox Sync does not work correctly. Bookmark cannot be deleted. Tabs are not displayed on the desktop.

    I have two problems with the synchronization again. The first problem is that none of my bookmarks or tabs of my office are appearing on my Android phone or work phone reverse on the desktop.
    The second problem is I'm trying to synchronize my favorites of the beta version of Android FF for the non - Beta Android FF that worked well until I corrected to remove several bookmarks I have anymore. I want to remove them, but I can remove them only on the beta version and then when I go to the regular version none of the changes have been synchronized. If I try to remove them from the normal version nothing happens at all.

    One thing to check is the android device and new update of office are on the same synchronization. To check on Android is this (not recommended) Firefox Sync account

    The other thing to check is if the tabs and bookmarks synchronization options are on for both devices in the page manage account.

    Is this the case?
