How to back up files without a graphical interface to see for

GUI of my laptop no longer works, with the exception of half of a centemeter at the top of the screen of the laptop shows hash instead of the GUI.  Operating system is windows 7 64 bit.

Is there an automated process, I could use to back up my files, or transfer them to a new laptop I buy?  I CAN log on to the computer and use it, I DON'T see what I'm clicking on / or typing.   One thought I had is if I could make a .bat file, I could access to and run, and it would copy my folder/User on a flash drive?

I'd rather not try and get inside my laptop to recover the HARD disk as the laptop is still under warranty and I don't want to risk doing anything to cancel this warranty from Wal-Mart.

So far, most of what I see when it comes to backup or data recovery is using the GUI and clicked on ok/next.  So I think that I "could" be able to this managed by trial and error by clicking, is there an easier way to do this without being able to see what I'm doing?

Is the issue of MISTLETOE, a problem with the monitor?  Perhaps you can connect another monitor to the laptop to use this form instead.  If this is not possible, you may be better to try to do it from the command prompt.

Good idea with the batch file.  You can do this, or try this command to copy your entire profile on your USB.  You will need to know the drive letter of your flash well.

  1. Log on to Windows
  2. Press -R cmd and then Enter.  The command prompt opens.
  3. Type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    xcopy % userprofile % F:\Backup/v/c/i

Who backs up everything in your profile (for example c:\users\skeene) user folder on your Flash drive (substitute the letter of your flash drive F).

  • How to view pdf files without having to download on firefox for android

    I use a program of electronic medical records using Firefox for android on a Tablet Samsung Galaxy Pro 12.2. I need to view the pdf files of patients on the tablet. So far, the only way I've been able to do this is to download the file first. It would be more effective if I could just view the PDF on the Galaxy Tablet without having to download it. Is it possible to do this with Firefox for android? Thank you.

    Adobe has never made a PDF for Android plugin. Which is what is needed to achieve the desired behavior. I have already cited the only option that comes closest.

    The files are downloaded. Using a plugin browser does not prevent the data being stored locally on your computer.

    Do you have any file manager installed on your device? This feature is no longer available in the latest version of Acrobat DC but we actively seek to provide the same in one of our future releases. To work around the problem, you will need to duplicate/rename the files using a third-party file manager application.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    Thank you for details on the issue.

    You can restore backed up files lost, damaged, or accidentally modified versions. You also to restore files individual, groups of files, or all files that you have saved.

    If you are restoring files from a backup that was made on another computer, the files are restored in a folder under the user name that was used to create the backup. If the user names are different, you must navigate to the folder where the files are restored.

    I suggest you use the steps in this article and check if it helps.

  • How can I transfer files from my old pc sony Vista for my laptop new HP 17-j003

    How can I transfer files from my old sony pc running vista for my laptop new HP 17-j003 Windows 8

    Welcome to the HP, Roodie forum.

    There is an easy way to do it using Microsoft Windows Easy Transfer :

    Transfer files and settings from another PC

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If you do not want to transfer files using the easy transfer method, you can manually make the copy.

    1. You can connect the systems on the same network,
    2. Define the folders that contain your data transfer to 'Share' on the network
    3. Map the drive on your new Vista computer system network
    4. Copy the data you want to transfer

    On the Vista Machine:

    • Open a Windows Explorer window,
    • Right click on the folder that contains the data you want to 'share' (transfer)
    • Click Properties > share > share and follow the instructions to allow the folder to be shared on the network

    On the Machine Windows 8:

    • Windows key (opens the start screen) > anywhere type 'computer' >
    • Click on "computer" to open the "Computer" File Explorer window >
    • Click map network drive and follow the instructions to map the drive

    Don't forget: If your account name is different on the Vista computer, you will need to click on "Sign in using different credentials" and then enter the name of the account on the Vista computer AND the password for this account.

    You can do this with the upper or lower level folders folder level - as long as the folder is shared, you should have general access to the data it contains.

    There are cases where you will not end up being "owner" of the data transferred - you will have to perhaps enter and adjust the property for files / folders after they are copied to the computer of Windows 8.

  • How to back up files after a HARD disk failure internal?

    My Macbook Pro (version 2012, obtained again a few months ago) could not start after getting in the middle of the loading screen and after trying to repair disk utilities, he told me that it is not repairable, and I need to save as many files as possible and try to reinstall the drive/operating system. I wasn't expecting a problem of this size so little time, so I didn't have a backup of my files either facts as it was not visible all the problems with my computer before he decided to break up after it sleep for a while. I have my external hard drive to transfer files, but when I try to use the function "restore" in the disc utilities (erasing files on my external drive and move my Mac HD here) it tells me that it is not a map of GPT partition on my external hard drive. I don't have a mac for the recovery target mode. I guess I might have to install OSX Yosemite on the external drive but how do I do this and how can I move my files (if possible) that him?

    I have to save it as I have a lot of paid apps installed in my mac.

    Thank you very much!

    Sorry for the hearing that, I had the same problem when my SSD PCIE crashes and I know that his could be much more frustrating on the losses of personal data that the device already has simply malfunction, since your HARD disk drive starts rained and you do not another machine of Mac, try visiting the genius bar with your Mac and another external drive start your computer in target disk mode and use a thunderbolt cable connect to the genius bar test computer, if your internal drive seems to read, you know what to do then, if it is not or not yet readable and you still don't want to not give up your data, you might need to turn the player on recovering data from third-party company to disassemble your hard drive and do it for you , and the cost is usually higher than normally expected.

    But you said that your attempt to return to your 'paid apps', I don't know which way you have those apps, but the property of an application generally belongs to your method of purchase (as your account), but not the machine. If you paid for apps for your Apple ID, you have them again in your Apple ID and able to re-download after that your Mac got repair, if you have Steam games, they will also with the account Steam, not a single Machine, so be sure the property type of the apps then all do next

    I have a table with id column, name, age, country, and I want to get the data. Please let me know how to proceed.

    Thanks in advance

    If you add columns manually in the data model there is no need to reverse engineering. If you reverse engineer with header set to 0 ODI will simply give the columns arbitrary identifiers such as C1, C2, C3 etc. That you can leave or change.
