  Then, on the option 'Registry '.

  At any time.

  I am pleased to have been of assistance.

  If you still have problems with the flash player and this file, the only other suggestion I can offer would be to burn the file to a CD and run the executable file I've first validated from the CD or transfer the 2nd file I posted from the CD to the hard drive, or find the driver on the CD folder.

• My C drive is nearly full, but my D drive is almost empty

  Hi all. I have a hard drive 1 TB, divided in a 250 GB drive C and 750 D player. My problem is that the C drive is nearly full, but the large D drive is almost empty. I have urgent need to move the partition, or transfer a huge chunk of files from C to D drive. The first would be better, or even delete the partition and have one disk, but I tried to move the partition using the Windows utility, and all I could do was reduce the C drive. I don't see how to remove the partition either.

  Which leaves the possibility of moving one of the large folders on drive C to D, which seems risky, but an it vendor told me that I could move the big folder of users (75GB). It seemed risky, but being desperate I tried - and got the error code 0 x 80070057. I would be grateful for any advice on how to solve this stupid problem.

  You can safe your Documents, photos, videos and music files to the other disk.  Navigate to the folder users, your user folder.  Right-click on each one and choose move.

  Remember that the overall performance will begin to suffer when you exceed 75% c in use.

  However, your real problem is the fact that your hard drive is partitioned and it need not be.

  Copy all your data on the D drive in an external storage device.

  Right click on computer, select Manage

  Click on disk management

  Right click on D and choose Delete volume

  Right click on the C partition and choose the volume of measurement.  Extend it up to the limit.

  Copy the data on your external storage on the largest new C space

  Now, you'll have one almost your entire partition 1 TB.

  Hello PhilipTanams,

  You will not be able to move the files to the C: drive on another drive Windows. All Windows files must be in the C: drive.

  Method 1:

  If you have personal files or data, you can move these files to another drive that increases the size of the C: drive by adding
  Method 2:

  If you have any other partition which has an empty space in it, you can extend the C: drive by adding the empty spaces to the C: drive.

  See the links to find out how to extend the partition of drive.

• X 200 + Intel SSD 330 - HARD drive password / ATA defined but no prompt

  Hello

  I have a Lenovo X 200, that I just bought (in used condition), ridden by me with a 330 Intel SSD. I tried to set a password for the HARD drive with a supervisor password and a power on password and supervisor password and turn on the passwords seem to work as expected. All the passwords are identical at the moment. To test if the HARD drive password was really in fact, I removed the power on password. Now there is no prompt to normal startup. I tried to put the HARD drive password once again, but there is still no prompt.

  If it is relevant, I put the HARD drive password after formatting the drive and installing Windows, but as far as I can understand it, there is no reason this matter as long as the computer's BIOS and firmware of the Player shouldn't care/know what data is on the drive. In addition, no significant/important data on the drive at the moment, so don't worry giving advice that could make existing data on the disk unreadable.

  Best regards

  Eric

  OK, I think I just solved this problem by chance: after the electric bike computer (stop and remove the power cord and the battery for 10 seconds) the VT - x to work, the HARD drive password prompt now works as well. I hope this can help someone else with the same issue in the future.

• My 'C' drive is almost full.

  My 'C' drive is almost full. He now has a red line. I have not installed new programs recent and cleaned the disc and defraged. Any suggestions please.

  Hello

  FYI, Windows is installed, if a previous installation is detected, Windows saves the previous version installed in a folder called "Windows.old". If the people who fixed your computer reinstalled Windows more than once, multiple copies of the installed operating system are residing on your drive. Windows does this, then you can recover personal files if you need however, eat as a space of hard drive... This maybe whence your 91 GB.

  You delete Windows.old files through disk cleanup. As part of this process, it will ask you if you want to get rid of the previous installations of Windows; say 'yes', this is the only way to get rid of these files. I suggest to re-launch disk cleanup, this time looking for previous versions that Windows can get rid of. I would say as you try TreeSize and see what he gets for totals of disc.

  Finally, it is possible that the Windows Disk Manager is at fault. I had the experience where WDM gave me a total size of the road which was greater than the sum of my scores. I literally had to create a few "unallocated space" in order for the numbers to add up correctly. I try the first two things and see what the total size of the disk is right there, then see if the sum of your records is equal or not is equal to the total (declared) size of the drive.

  Let me know how you fare.

  Kind regards
