How can I stop OE 'compress files to free disk space,'

How can I prevent the notice OE ("compression of files to free up disk space"), constantly arise. I moved the cd, deleted files, shortcuts to files, etc., and I still get this pop up to compress files.  very annoying.   Help

Have let you compact? Disk space is not recovered until you do. Let compact, you should not see the prompt again for 100 closures of OE. If you see more often, after the return. If not, read this.

Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :

About file Corruption:
http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/IE/community/columns/filecorruption.mspx

Compacting your folders periodically is a must to keep OE works fine and at some point, you may lose all your saved messages if you do not. When you delete or move messages, the space they used remains until you compact.

Never touch anything until the compression is finished.* *.

See:
www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2

With SP2, Automatic compaction in the background has been removed because of problems he has caused. Now, you will get a prompt to compact after 100 closures of OE, you need to do, and do not touch anything until it's finished. If you compact manually, at your convenience, this will also set the counter to zero. See this for more information:
http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm#compact

If you are fully patched, you will now see a copy of your dbx files copied to the Recycle Bin as BAK files. If something goes wrong when compacting, the messages can be easily restored from this backup. A compact manual resets also the counter in the back of the registry to zero now.

For more information, see the information framed in red here:
www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2

To keep things running smooth and harden faster:

Do not archive mail in default OE folders. It will eventually become corrupt and you may lose mail. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.

And backup often.

  • How can I stop people deleting files other people created in windows 7?

    How can I stop people deleting files other people created in windows 7? I've had this settings in windows XP. a public folder where no one can delete the files that they did not create. only the creator has been able to delete the folder.

    Please notify.

    Thank you!

    You can do almost the same way in Windows 7.  Basically you right click on the folder and choose Properties.  Under Security, you can decide who can and cannot remove the folder (or even see the folder if you wish, to hide from others).

    Just be careful.  I recommend not using the "deny".  Just do not give someone the function "allow."  Denials have priority and I saw where people wrongly denied their own access to the folder, and according to the options chosen, you can't "undo" who am wrong.

  • What does not compress files to save disk space?

    Original title: compress the disc

    Hi, I'm not very good with computers. in any case, I see in 'Properties' to the local c drive, there is an option to "compress files to save disk space", or something like that. I want to create more space on my disk, so io should do? It will have harmful effects on what it is? can it be undone? anything else I should know about it?

    Thank you very much

    He was never a good idea to compress a drive.

    Some system files and folders don't like it, and if there is a problem with the drive, it will be more difficult to work on the problem. If you have a problem with a compressed drive, after he went on half capacity, it becomes incredibly difficult as the first, must unpack the drive, and if there is not enough space on the disk, decompression does not.

    In my opinion? Do not...

  • How can I move a compressed file (zipped) on my memory stick?

    I can download a "e-book" from loc.gov.  It is sent compressed (zipped).

    How "decompress this file?

    How can I move the "file unzipped on my memory stick?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Move the mouse over the file that you downloaded and click the right button of the mouse. You should see a menu that starts:

    • Explore
    • Open
    • Extract all...

    If you don't see it, it may be that this is not a .zip file. To check, open the folder that you downloaded it and change the view to details, if necessary. The 'Type' column should say 'compressed (zipped) folder '.  Or change the folder options to show file extensions and make sure that the name of the file ends in .zip.

    How to stop the message you have files waiting to be burned to the disc. I don't want to delete the files I just want the message ent.

    Hello

    By deleting records, you not delete the orginial files. The original files will be saved in a different location. As suggested above, the files are first copied to a temporary location, and then a disk image file is created. To remove the pop up, you may need to delete the temporary files in the location of "burn".

  • What is the ldiag file in Windows 7? How can I stop Windows write files in this folder?

    Can someone tell me what is the ldiag file in Windows 7?

    Somehow, Windows creates files and writes to this file. It keeps then write files until the entire hard drive is full. In other words, there is no place to save a restore point and no place to open Outlook, etc.

    When this has happened in the past, I had to contact the Microsoft response service and a level 2 technician to erase files. They said, the problem has been "fixed", but he continues to be...

    Do you know what "program" in Windows write files to this folder? I think it's a kind of diagnostic file. I tried the search "help" and the community and have not found anything to answer.

    Well, I hope that he is an expert in the community who can advise me on this. Thank you in advance.

    Thank you for your kindness in answering this question. I worked with technician level 2 Microsoft Office of response on the issue.

    I see that the files are part of the Lenovo system. Somehow, the Lenovo system analysis - triggered by something unknown to me--and wrote a text of 25 to 30 Gigabyte file!  I've identified it as a program of Lenovo, the write file and the program triggered by some unknown parameter. Then, I took the step to stop this program, Lenovo to run and then remove the text files.

    The steps you suggested are 'typical' first response / suggestions that you could do in that first level. However, in this case that they had nothing to do with the real problem.

    I often do a disk cleanup. This program is not clean these text files of the diagnosis of Lenovo.

    I start the computer in safe mode to diagnose problems. Yet once, just for the record, being in safe mode has nothing to do with the question of the Lenovo running program.

    No, there is no error message other than a message about 'disk full '. I ran a small program to see the size of the folder and was able to quickly identify the issue of file ldiag containing two text files, each about 25 gigabytes.

    Once again, thank you for your suggestions, but they were just basic, 'typical' suggestions and really had nothing to do with this specific problem. However, you have correctly identified the ldiag as being a file of Lenovo. Once that technology Tier 2 response office and found out that we were able to "solve" the problem.

    I'll keep the links you sent for reference.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer.

  • How can I save a text file on the disk in Illustrator?

    Hello

    I was looking through the Javascript reference and couldn't find that everything related to the writing of strings in a text file on the disc.

    Is this possible? If so where should I look?

    If not, can I run a piece of code in the Terminal/CommandPrompt in Illustrator (. e.g. echo 'Hello!' > > file.txt)?

    Here's something I think that Muppet Mark or Carlos Canto posted earlier

    Since the installation of creative cloud, I noticed a lack of disk space, recently I found CC had been storing GB of log files, how can I stop this nonsense? 40 GB of space on my SSD HARD drive was recovered today by disabling the 8.1 windows temp folder.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
