  Security How can I remove the copy and paste the files I used?

  I can't get rid of all the e-mail addresses I have copied and pasted.  No matter what I will always appear if I hit paste again.  This is a shared computer and I would rather not have my copy and paste the files stored on the computer, after that I quit.

  Thank you

  Hi Ron,

  You can copy or move information (for example, text and pictures) between files and programs using temporary storage called the Clipboard. The Clipboard is not visible, so even if you use it to copy and paste information, you never actually see the Clipboard when you do this.

  The Clipboard contains a block of information at a time. Whenever you copy information to the Clipboard, the old contents of the Clipboard is replaced by the new information.

  When you shut down the computer everything is stuck in the memory of the Clipboard is cleared.

  Please click the below mentioned link to get an overview of the clip board memory.

• How to cancel a backup file?

  Entered 'Back Up' and attempted to save all the D drive.  D drive cannot take more files.  I need to remove this backup file and probably get a backup of attachment for my computer?  How to remove the files that I backed up?

  Corresponds to your D drive a recovery partition?
  If so, you have a problem...

  Your recovery partition D is implemented by the manufacturer of your computer in the event of serious problems in your system.
  You use it to restore your system.

  You're NOT supposed to touch it... not to add or remove anything from or to it.

  You call the manufacturer of the computer, tell them the situation...

  1. ask for a set of recovery DVD to reinstall Vista, if you do not have a game made yourself.
  2. ask how to remove backup files or elements that are NOT supposed to be there.
  They created the recovery partition, they know how to take care of it.
  Let them teach how you to.

  You should make your backup of files to one of the following:
  1 CD or DVD.
  2. buy an external hard drive for Backup files. Nowadays, it is inexpensive. Less than $100 you will get a very good post, hard drive.
  * The best option is the external hard drive.

• How can I recover the files and programs before a system restore? my document folders are all empty and my programs will not open!

  How can I recover the files and programs before a system restore?  my document folders are all empty and my programs will not open!

  I know they are there and hidden somewhere, but this restoration took my settings of the computer to 2004! We lost all our data, our software that we use to operate our company at home, our quickbooks that has all our financial data, family photos, videos, Outlook will work not so no e-mail, all turned in time and 6 years ' worth of documents have disappeared.

  What happeneded was that I was trying to upgrade to quickbooks software when I got an error, I cancelled out of the facility, then restarted and that's when I got an error hal.dll something? I thought about a system restore would allow me to go back in time to just before when the error occurred, but he basically took my computer back to factory settings, so all the programs that I installed and paid hundreds of dollars for the past six years has disappeared, Microsoft Office and very expensive construction estimating software that we wil have to pay once AGAIN for If I can't get this program working properly.

  I am a fool! I can't believe what's happening.

  Someone at - it instructions on how I can retrieve either the programs and data that I need specifically or how to go and seek shade from the files I read online on and restore my computer for about 12 hours ago?

  Thank you all!

  Looks like you did a system rather than a system restore recovery.  If you have inserted a disc supplied with your machine and booted from it, you probably erased the disc and installed the original operating system provided with your computer.  Usually, a step in this recovery is to do a full format or quick of your drive.  If you did a full format, your data is permanently lost.  With a quick format, your data may still be there, somewhere but inaccessible by normal means.  Applications must generally be installed, in order to recover the files probably will not help unless you have the original installation media.  Your other data files (images, videos, financial data) may be salvageable, but at this point, it would be advisable to take your computer or your disk to a business/professional who is experienced with data disc recovery.  It will be cheap and there is no guarantee.

  Impatient, remember investigate you a backup strategy for your computer and critical data.  Hard drives can go wrong with little or no warning.

  Is it possible to backup files/folders to another location on the pc

  You should back up your DVD files or an external hard drive in case of hard drive failure, because you would lose everything if you saved it on the hard drive even and it failed.

• BlackBerry smartphone how to read your backup file

  Hello

  I use a MacbookPro to backup the data on BlackBerry "BOLD".

  There are tutorials to transfer all your back until your new appliance and so on, but what happens when you simply want to read all the information a backup on your computer?

  There are so many new contacts in my blackberry I want to synchronize with my address book on the computer, but I can't even read the file on my backup computer.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Orphise

  Unfortunately, this is not possible with the BlackBerry backup files. They can only be restored to a BlackBerry.
