How can I delete a desktop application and the file?

I download an application which went to the bureau.  Target is "C\Users\===\desktop\===.exe" no shortcut key. I click with the right button to delete the file and got a sign of caution: action cannot be compleded because the file is open in = executable.  Close the file and try again.  I have liquidated everything returned to do the samething and got the same answer.  How can I close a file?  How can I get this unwanted application and the deleted file?  Thanks :=)

Hello

The program has an open handle. Use the Task Manager process tab to locate and kill him. Alternatively, restart the system and delete once recharged. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

  • How can I restore my desktop icons and the taskbar icons

    I tried to open a file with a program's .lnk and her was not recognized in the program, and now my desktop icons and my icons to the taskbar was converted into icons for the program. How to get this back? I need to know how to do this in Windows 7.

    [Moved from comments]

    There are some patches for the issue that you siding, but most of them requires registry changes that I do not say that they can cause several other problems. I recommend that you perform a system restore.

    There are two ways to perform the system restore:

    Menu start open, click Run and type cmd to open the command prompt.

    Type CD... to book only c:\.

    Type windows CD then CD System32, and then restore.

    After once, you'll find yourself in c:\ windows\system32\restore >

    Type restrui.exe press ENTER.

    Once the system restore the open window then click on next to select any available restore point.

    This process takes a few minutes to do the restore and please make sure that once this process has begun there wont be reversible and or you will lose all personal data.

    Another way to perform the system restore is to open the safe mode by clicking on F8 at startup and check the option of safe mode, then still a dialog box opens to ask the system restore and then follow the steps above.

    It is even possible to read or write reviews of applications on Apple TV?

    original title: How can I fix excerpt: error writing to the file

    Hello, I do not know anythingon fixing of my computer when I have problems. I looked at all the research sites and assistance, and none of them helped me with these problems and im getting ready to launch her aspire one mini laptop computer. im running xp and I bought it used and it has done this from day one. 2 weeks ago, that I got it. Please can you help me.

    How can I fix excerpt: error writing to the file C:docume~1\user\local~1\temp\nsvc.tmp\conduit-left.bmp

    and im having problems with my connection remaining on the port wireless what do I do, I can solve this problem too because I cannot even be in line for more then 5 minutes with the duty to stop and start over or repair the connection.

    For the first question, try to go to start | Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Disk Cleanup and that should clear of junk.  Then click Start | Run and type msconfig and disable the startup items, that you don't need, as many programs decide that they must run at startup and clutter the machine when they do not need to.  Also perform a defragmentation of the disk (under system tools also).  See if that helps with performance and other issues.

    You can not downgrade. For XP, you must install XP properly.

  • When you open a Photoshop file with Bridge, how can I control what version of Photoshop, the file wil

    At the opening of a bridge of fthrough Photoshop file, how can I check which version of Photoshop, the file will open in?

    I store my PSD files that is adjacent to the original RAW file which it originates.

    If I open the folder and double-click this PSD file, it opens to the CS6. But, if I use the bridge (CS6) for access to and open the same file, it starts by is Photoshop CS5 and then opens this file PSD in CS5.

    How can I control which Photoshop will open a file then choose to open it through Bridge?

    Interesting, but it does not give any idea what I'm supposed to do. No Photoshop ducuments listed.

    Look at the PSD file on the location of Curt and Photoshop Document research. Beside him ideally should show Adobe Photoshop CS6 if you have Bridge open CS6. Click to provide the fly on the menu and choose the correct Photoshop from the list.

    But probably something went wrong with your installation. By default, Bridge chooses the latest version of PS to open its plug in.

    Maybe reset preferences may also help you. Can you provide more details about the version of the OS etc.

    And you have a good reason to keep your Raw and finalized in the same place files. Personally I put them aside and use a convention of appropriate filename (YYYYMMDD and details) so I can easily search the DNG files in my archives if I needed, but I don't make mistake by opening a bad

    Icons on the desktop are normally shortcuts - pointers to programs or
    data files, not programs or data files themselves (the small
    arrow indicates this is a shortcut). Deleting a shortcut has not
    effect on the file it points to-he will always be there.
