    I have a LOT of pictures on an external drive connected to my computer.  I run Windows 7.  Two records from hundreds of files, each with many files in them, I can open but cannot open the pix in the records.  I need to change the property etc a pix at the same time.  This is not so on the other hundreds of records.  Why these two, and how to change ownership of the folders rather than files inside individual them?  I tried to change the owner of the folders but am not allowed to do.  Can anyone help?

    TAKEOWN /F the type in the path of the folder that you want to take access>

     

    ICACLS type in the path of the folder that you want to take access> grant administrators: F /

  • I have a problem with a missing on the computer user account.

    Original title: problem getting back to the original account admin user

    Since the computer was new, I didn't have that one user account and didn't need a user to logon screen, when it opened to that and the only active user account. Fast forward 6 months that I had a problem with a windows installation file deleted and in order to get a program running I had to add a user account for the new installation of the user files. That part worked, but when I disconnected and tried to return to my original owner account there was only the new account on the logon screen my original account wasn't there. My files for this user account are still there in C: User but I can't find a way to get there.

    Googleing this problem I saw things about problems with the accounts being listed as AccueilCompte, or administrator, but it did get me anywhere, the only difference I've seen after going through all that I saw in Win7 Home Premium, which had to do with user accounts, it is that my original account was registered in a field as 'owner '. I don't know if it's part of the problem or not. How can I return to my original account and why isn't she appear on the opening screen of session or user accounts?

    You will no more find system restore points if they are not created.

    Restore points are saved until the system restore reserves HDD space is filled. As new restore points are created, old ones are deleted. If you disable the Protection System (the feature that creates restore points) on a disk, all restore points are deleted from this drive. When you turn System Protection, new restore points are created.

  • Problem with MDT 2012 on the computer.

    Hello guys,.

    We had some problems with deployment workbench. I'm stuck since 2 weeks and I have no ideas.

    So, we have already a precedent of deployment, but it is old, and we wanted to make a new one, in order to really understand all stages of the construction of a deployment.

    So we created a PXE boot, who works there.

    The thing is when we start the installation, Windows Setup is fine, so I run certain applications (Microsoft Office, 7zip, Adobe Reader, Flash Player, Chrome, etc.).

    To explain, I added applications with command lines in the workbench, then I made a bundle with them. In the task sequence, I install the bundle.

    We get the 1632 error code, which seems to be related to the temporary folder. He says it's full or inaccessible.

    So I tried different things, I read that it was possible that the temp folder has been locked by another plant which may have gone wrong. So I took away from facilities that were not going very well.

    It worked once, then it still make me error codes 1632.

    I disabled the step "Install applications" in the sequence of tasks, which does nothing for me. (That I created the facility overall.)

    My boss has the idea to disable GPOS that install stuff, so now I try it.

  • Is anyone having problems with FF v29 where the bookmarks bar is empty?

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables some settings and disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    (If you are using an additional theme, place you in default theme.)

    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Mode without failure of Firefox in the Help menu by clicking on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item:

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

    Thank you.

  • Anyone having problems with crashes after setting the units (lb/po2) on an indicator on the dipstick?

    I use an indicator of money gauge to show pressure. With no set of units, everything seems to work properly. When I set units 'psi' and immediately try to save LabView hangs and crashes immediately after each next attempt to open the file project or VI. I'm using LabView 2012 (12.0f3) 64-bit on Windows 8. It is the first crash, I had. Unfortunately, it seems that the file is corrupted and I lost a few hours of work. Now I'm afraid to continue using this VI of fear he crash of something else and corrupt the file and I'll lose my progress. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I presented the crash to the settlement report, but who knows how long it takes to move to study the problem.

    Hi Arcus,

    If you search the forum you will find a large number of "moaning" on the buggy and incomplete unit support in LabVIEW. My favorite is the square function (available from LV2009?) which will follow "4 m" when you want as the square of "2 m". Of course: meter ^ 2 is always meter. And we're just talking a very basic unit...

    You will also find on the controls of the money bug reports.

    Combine all these threads in your own conclusions!

    I don't use controls of the money, and usually I stay away by using units of our days...

    BTW: I would also stay away from units such as "psi". Just my continental Europe perspective

    (Once I got to work with a machine (treatment of semiconductors) produced in the United States. She had 4 gauges next to each other using 3 different units: lb/po2, inHg, Torr. There must be a reason to do it, but have you ever needed to compare these pressures? Easy to remember these conversions...)
