• Slow extreem Windows Explorer with a right click on the name of the file

  My Windows Explorer is extremely slow when I right click on a file in there. But only when I have the network connection is active.
  I found the reason that on the MS page http://windowsxp.mvps.org/rcdelay.htm but I can't apply the Advisor inside. It shows a very old version of RegScaner and when I run it I get a lot of folder of registry which begin by-string. I'm afraid of making a bad choice!

  It would be nice if someone could guide me on this matter, please!

  You probably don't want to disable one at a time.  Try groups of 20 or 30 at a time.  I'm not sure you need restart between trials.  Some extensions of the sample I tested were immediately disabled and right click on a file did not show the options for this extension.  It wouldn't surprise me that you will not be able to disable each extension.  Work with those that you can and see if something helps you.  Look in the 'File name' column and suspect that any file that begins with "------" or a drive letter that does not correspond to a hard drive on your system.

  If you do not want to use RegScanner, do the same with Regedit.  Run Regedit (start-> Run-> 'regedit'), simple click on 'My Computer' to select it, make an edition-> find, enter your------the field search and click "next".  It stops at the next occurrence.  Press the F3 key to find the one that follows after that.  I think you will find that there are many references to '-', some occurring in places that you probably want to touch.  Unless you know what you're doing, editing the registry can be dangerous.  Always back up the registry first before making any changes.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• Windows explore crashes on right-click

  Whenever I do a right click on a file in Windows Explorer, I get a message that Windows Explorer has stopped working and then it shut downto the office.  I am running Windows Vista Home Premium on a gateway GT5228. It has 2 GB of ram and unused 140 GB hard disk.  I've been running Vista for about a year and the problem just started a week ago.  I hope someone has a suggestion because at the moment I can't delete or rename anything.  I ran a software antivirus and anti spyware and found nothing.  Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

• Windows Explorer 7 change modification timestamps of files while selecting

  I have something very weird.

  One volume, it is in fact a TrueCrypt container and a hidden, but still: nothing is weird anywhere except in one place where I am browsing of .eml files, which are emails from some backup program.

  In fact, copying the files to my regular C: partition changes also modification dates, but that may be a bug in Windows 7 "regularly." I just used RichCopy to copy this 6 000 file folder. If Explorer now would end never read the new directory... so much worse I deleted most of it using a different file Explorer, and now the behaviour is not replicated here.

  There is a strange difference between the Explorer on my TrueCrypt volume window and my C: drive, which is also TrueCrypt, just not hidden.

  The folder C: shows options records 'Date' 'Modified' and 'Created' as columns, while the hidden volume indicates 'Modified' and 'Created' as an option for the columns, but not the simple "Date." What more, apparently this column 'Date' analysis (or indexed) the contents of the file, because it shows email dates not present in one of these stamps of file. This would explain why the column 'Date' is not present on the other volume, because I think that it is set to Index only the volume of my system. This could also explain why Explorer took several minutes able to read the contents of the folder and has not yet finished before I canceled it.

  But that in itself may not be good, because the indexer does not actually cover these locations and each file is scanned in fact.

  Then, the reasons for what it is is not known. My tool using alternative (XYplorer) now no longer retains the change dates. At the time wherever the files are copied, they are still correct, but less than a second, I see the date mod change at the present time. And now RichCopy ALSO cannot keep mod-dates. All these volumes are NTFS.

  Referencing of: Windows 7 Windows Explorer change suddenly last updated Date of the files attribute

  During this time, it does not change the date of any other file I can copy. Since the same volumes. Not for the other files can be analyzed as text, image, audio. It does only to EML. But only for the location, after that I copied the files somewhere else (on the same volume) before I put back the date mod (changing the time system and then do the thing) it will that thing even in this other place. And now to the main location also is more compatible. He will do it is no longer the files I copied elsewhere when the date was a day back. But it always does to any other files.

  Maybe my backup tool that created the files just made something weird, I don't know.

  This is much like the following article.  Maybe their solution will work for you...

  "*.eml timestamp - select the file in Windows Explorer changes the modified Date.

  The columns that you see in a window of the Explorer can be customized (in the Explorer window, press then release the ALT key, then select 'View'-> 'Choose details', or you can set it by choosing a 'type' to the file (right click on the folder-> properties-> customize (tab)-> change "what kind of folder do you want?))  Some will be displayed 'Date', some don't.

• How can I permanently get rid of the column "type" in Windows Explorer to optimize my preview of file space

  In order to maximize my preview of the file space, I want to get rid of the column "type". I can tell what kind of file it is. The only thing I need is the update and the file size. Everytime I open a window of Windows Explorer I go to display, add columns and remove types. Everytime I open a new Windows Explorer window, the 'Type' column is back. How can I change the settings to permanently get rid of it?

  Can I use desktop shortcuts & open Office files, but I can't see the contents of the C drive, etc. Looks like it is filling when I click on "Computer", which will display all of the subfolders... a green bar moved from left to right at the top for more than an hour, but still no folders/files are displayed.

  It is now after midnight. I'll leave it as; non-stop. If all goes well, he rebuilds "pointers" or other & will be done by morning.
