Help on the snapshot files and delta
Hello
Last night, does not have an ArcServe backup on a single virtual machine. Not the end of the world, that has happened before.
This morning, received an alert from a script that I coded to look for * delta * files on our data store. A delta file has been abandoned here. We have to drive on this machine and the file only delta remained for one of these discs. Usually, all I have to do is create a new snapshot, delete all snapshots and everything returns to normal. This time, the Delta stayed there.
So I tried to create another snapshot option (with suspend it), as mentioned in the vmware. He failed (Timed out). Damn now I stuck out there for all of our disc delta files. Tried again with the options suspend like 10 minutes after. Works. Delete all snapshots, works, but still stuck with these delta files.
OK, the thing is all these 00000?-files delta does not appear to be used, as the modification date remained at the time of the snapshot.
And also, the .vmx file doesn't seem to point to the delta files. Then maybe I could safely remove?
Here is some info.

Thank you!!!
Indeed, it looks like some files are orphans. If it is possible to turn off the virtual machine for a short period, I would say that you do this, then move the hard orphaned directory and power on the virtual machine again. If everything works, delete the subdirectory, including files. What I found useful is RVTools that reports these files as "Zombies".

Hello!
I have a delicate problem with snapshots and delta files. We use a Backup Excel 2010, to make a backup of the machine.
No I have 110 00000 X - delta.vmdk files if I navigate on the storage. customer vShpere do not appear any snapshot and file vmx (see below) are pointing to the master file (virtuellmaskin). If you read about this error what VMware says that you can delete all files from delta. I moved all the files in the delta and tried to start the machine NO GO. I deleted all files ctk that was created.
I tried to make a snapshot of the manual and still delete problems

I lost all the photos, files and programs, can someone help me please?
I did a system restore (I think) and lost all the photos, files and programs. Can someone tell me please how do I get back them?
LillieLooks like your user profile has been corrupted in some way and XP connected to a new profile. This means that when you connect, you see one of your stuff and can be also lack all the other programs you may have installed previously.
Note that the system restore do not know or care about the personal files on your system.
Unless there's a disaster or instead of a system restore you done a system recovery files would be still on your system somewhere - you just find them... and when you find them, you can correct what happened. If you have made a recovery of the system instead of a system restore, then all is lost and you need to recover from a backup.
Have you performed a search of Windows to see if you can find some of these photos and files? For example, you could search for something like "Resume.doc" or a file name that you remember exactly to see if it is anywhere on your system and where it is.
Why don't you get in Windows Explorer and (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive), navigate to this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings
Below, you will see that each user on your system has their own folder for their personal belongings. You will see also some folders listed user that you do not recognize, but that's normal.
Under the folder of each user, there is another folder, as "Documents of Jose" and under this 'Jose music' and «De Jose Pictures» Dig a little and check them all to see if you can find your missing stuff.
Just take a look in the Control Panel, add/remove programs to see if "missing" programs are still installed, but all not available when you are logged in (you don't have to 'do' something - just look at).
Assuming that you can find your missing stuff, determine where we (which will make feel you better knowing that it is not really gone), then report back and someone can help you straighten things.

I have a Windows 7 VM running on an Intel Mac computer. The size of the VM folder is about 280 GB. A large part of this weight belongs to the snapshot files. I copied the Windows 7 VM on a real Windows 7 machine and its opening perfectly using the VM player and everything works fine.
All I want to do is the snapshot of the files detected, because it takes a lot of space on my disk. I can do by the player, or what I need to do this on the Mac where it all started?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Chaz
After going through the Menus you see snapshot commands?, no!
While you can run a Virtual Machine that has Snapshots in VMware Player you can only manipulate them with Instances of the ACE.
Otherwise, some options are...
Add a second virtual hard drive and clone the existing to the new and then swap the VHD on.
Use VMware vCenter Converter Standalone and create a new Virtual Machine from the existing.
Install VMware Workstation and use it to delete snapshots.
Install the SDK for the VMware virtual disk and vmware-vdiskmanager allows to create a new hard to replace existing ones.
Back to VMware Fusion and delete snapshots.

Not able to add the snapshot file to the virtual machine
We have Win 2003 virtual machine running on ESXi 4.0.0 261974. The virtual machine has two vmdk files. We had taken the snapshot a few days back and today by mistake, we have removed one of the vmdk (DB - srv - 000001.vmdk - snapshot file). Now, we are not able to add the snapshot file to the virtual machine. When tried to add the existing vmdk, it displays only the source disk (DB - srv.vmdk). Please, help us to solve this problem.
The GUI allows only adding the base vmdk. To add the Flash disk, you must manually change the vmx file. Registrations for the formerly removed virtual disk could still exist in the vmx file with... .present = "FALSE". After changing the vmx file you must reload the configuration. To do this, remove the VM of the inventory and add it back again (right-click on the vmx file).

The temporary files and Buring CD stash file.bin
Hello
I have a question about the temporary files and CD burning stash file.bin that are created when you try to burn files to a CD in XP.
as I read the article below, it is said that when you try to copy files (burn files to cd) on CD, first of all these files are copied to the folder under: \Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\CD Burning, then also these files are copied to a monolithic disc image before saving the data to a CD in reality This file named CD burning stash file.bin and is located in the folder root (default under C:\)
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/279157
are these temporary files in c. Drive_letter: \Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\CD Burning
and the other file named CD burning stash file.bin in the root of the C drive will be deleted automatically after finish burning files to a CD?
If these temporary files are automatically deleted after burning, they are sent to the Recycle Bin or deleted without envoys to recycle bin folder?I knew all these processes are involved just to burn files on CD... and I have not computer XP with me at the moment, so I would like to know if these files are deleted when the program ends to burn.
If anyone can help me with the answer, I would appreciate it!
Hello
Yes, these files are should be removed when the program ends to burn.
It will be useful.

If it doesn't, try a startup repair and / or a system restore using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft
Manufacturers recovery disks normally do not have Service Options; they are normally a relocation to the factory only settings option.
Here is the guide to repair Options using a Vista DVD from Microsoft.
If a friend or a work acquantance of yours has one, you can borrow and use it for repairs.

- Conclusion
If you do not or can not borrow a Microsoft DVD there is a download of a file ISO of Vista Startup Repair available that you can put on a Bootable floppy to make the above startup repair and that the method is recommended by a large number of posters in these Forums.
Unfortunately, you have to buy it.
Here is a link to it:

There are several methods to reinstall Vista.
This can help you (download files and make your own DVDs):

And here are instructions on how to burn ISO disk images:

The download links and information on how to make the ISO file, and then create the Setup DVD above are at this link:

___________________________________
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:
You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:
How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

___________________________________
And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought your computer.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
Them or us ask the right sequence of key.
___________________________________
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

I made a movie of 30 minutes or more in WMM, some of the videos that I imported I had to convert to wmv, to import into WMM. Once I went to publish the movie, after the publication of about 1%, an error message pops up saying something like "cannot publish to the specified location. Check the source files and the location is still available and that there is enough disk space. "I have 8 GB of free space on my hard drive and I tried to burn a cd on a dvd, and save to memory stick, none of them have worked, the same message is displayed even if they have sufficient space available. There is no red x in the videos or photos that I imported, so no files are missing. Some files have been moved when they were converted, but the movie plays well in WMM. I want to export to is in my documents is therefore always available. I spent hours trying to figure this out and I I still don't know what the problem with it! Help! I've also spent a lot of time to their conversion to avi to see if this helped and the same message appeared again.
What is the format of your source of debtor files and how did you convert
TO WMV?I can only imagine that you are using Vista Movie Maker 6?
It's not really about the location... error messages can be very cryptic...
The error that you mentioned usually appears when the source files in the project
are damaged or are not fully compatible with Movie Maker and made

I had a problem with my laptop. I let a friend use it and she got a virus. The screen is black. She took it to get fixed. When she returned I couldn't open some files. (Always have this problem with some files) my shortcut icons are no longer there. Then I get this message on the Catalyst Control Center does not work. In any case, I did a scan and he told me that I had corrupted in my cbs log files so I tried to do the command findstr/c: "[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > sfcdetails.txt to find the corrupted file and nothing happened. Help!
Hello
Departure - in the search box, type-> order
at the top of the list to find COMMAND - CLICK RIGHT to it - RUN AS ADMIN
Type the following commands (or copy and paste one at a time), each followed by pressing on enter.
ipconfig/flushdns
nbtstat-r
nbtstat - RR
netsh int Reinitialis
netsh int ip reset
netsh winsock reset
RESET
That resets your TCP/IP stack
It might also be a good idea to updare drivers network - NETWORK card (wired) and WiFi (wireless)
by checing at the site of the manufacturer of the system/card mother and/or sites of the manufacturer of the real device.
Methods for manual update of driver at the end of this response.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------For settings.ini as this article sets out the question may be totally ignored.
The SFC.exe command reports Settings.ini file errors in the CBS.log file after that you add gadgets
for the Sidebar of Windows Vista by using the Sysprep tool and an Autounattend.xml file.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947595-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These errors only are in the settings.ini for the sidebar and are not a serious problem by all means.
Close the sidebar for that.
Something else for the settings.ini - run AutoRuns and look at the entries SideBar Gadget - y at - it
all pointing to is no longer present as temp files or uninstalled gadgets or not running?
Those who will reflect the "yellow icons" on the left side and the files/folders will not exist. If so just
Click on it and delete - Reboot. This may correct the errors that you see.Autoruns - free - see what programs are configured so that it starts automatically when your system
boots and you login. Autoruns shows you the full list of registry and file locations where
applications can configure Auto-start settings.
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
-------------------------------Another process to try is to remove everything except a gadget - everything what you think is the most simple, that you use.
Maybe the calendar. Then RESTART - use another simple gadget, and delete the first class used
-RESTART again. See if that helps.Rarely, the error causing the problem with the sidebar and not not affect the system in general.
The SFC.exe command reports Settings.ini file errors in the CBS.log file after that you add gadgets to
the Sidebar of Windows Vista by using the Sysprep tool and an Autounattend.xml file.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947595-------------------------------
Another method to try with the SideBar works does not is to copy the Settings.ini to another folder and
and then delete - then start sidebar.--------------------------------
For tcpmon.ini and settings.ini:
You can also try to restore any copy of a Vista DVD (even 32 or 64 bit however).
Access files on your Vista installation DVD
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/86959-access-Vista-install-DVD-files.htmlHow to extract system files missing from the DVD of Windows 7/Vista.
http://blog.NirSoft.NET/2009/09/17/how-to-extract-missing-system-files-from-the-DVD-of-Windows-7vista/===================================================
===================================================Also update your drivers: (WiFi (wireless), NIC (Wired) and others as required)
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.htmlFor 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.
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htmInstallation and update of drivers to 7 (update drivers manually using the methods above is preferred
to make sure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)

Method 1:
I suggest you to do a scan of the SFC. File system (CFS) Auditor verifies that all Windows 7 system files are where they should be as they are by default and not corrupted, changed or damaged.
a. Click Start, click principally made programs, accessories, right-click on command prompt and select run as administrator.
b. click on continue or provide administrator credentials if prompted.
c. in the type in the following command prompt window and press ENTER:
d. sfc/scannow
e. you should see the following message on the screen:
§ Begin the analysis of the system. This process will take time.
§ Beginning verification phase of system scan.
f. % verification complete.
g. once the scan is complete, a test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved or not.
