  • How to identify obsolete files in Windows XP?

    My directory of Windows (XP) rose to more than 10 GB, which for me is more than 30% of my C: drive.  I need to create because I only have 1 GB of free space on C:.  Despite the defrag NTFS seems to perform badly under 20% of free space.  (Yes, my documents and program files take up a lot of space, but not nearly as much as the Windows.)

    I suspect that most of the files in my Windows directory are really outdated, but I can find no documentation MS how to identify obsolete files of Windows.  Unfortunately, KB MS searches return only the details of the specific software issues and warnings no do not delete the contents of the directories like Installer & $hf_mig$ who collectively represent 40% of the space of files in the Windows folder.

    Can someone point me to MS doc on the identification of obsolete files in Windows?

    Can someone point me to a reliable freeware that can analyze my Windows folder & identify obsolete files?

    Thanks, J

    Thank you once again.

    I moved my Documents to my another internal drive, but it was UGLY.  Fortunately, I made a backup before you start.  The Windows Move function fails if a file is locked by a process.  Supposedly gives the user the possibility of closing the lock program, he abandoned the movement rather than a new attempt.  Thus, the move is only partially complete.  The restore function moves the files back, but not all the original files are retrieved.  (Move offers no option to copy all files successfully before deleting the originals).  With backup & some file/folder comparison software, I was able to recover all the lost files (probably).

    In any case, the above is not your fault.  I just thought you should know about the potential problems of moving.  I commented to MS on moving article.  I hope that similar questions are not present in Windows 7.

    I still have 26G standing on C, all Documents & settings Windows and Program Files.  But now I have 7 free G.  Move my Documents was a good idea, just as subjects with MS Move function.

    Thank you once again.  I will mark it as answered.  John

  • How to delete many files duplicate music in Windows Media Center

    How to remove several duplicate files Windows Media Center music

    I am running Windows 7 64 bit with Windows Media Center and I have a 2 TB external drive, I keep all my multimedia (music/movies) and I just realized that my entire music library has been duplicated several times that I now have 4-5 copies of each music file in my library on my external hard drive. It is not duplicate my movies (thank God!) Why is this happening? How can I get rid of the duplicates? and how can I prevent this from happening in the future?

    You can also see duplicates in Windows Media Player library?

    Because Media Center uses the same library as WMP, I suggest that you try to reset the media library of WMP. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

    -Restart the PC.
    -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click on the service and click on stop.
    -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
    -In this folder, delete the folder Media Player. If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
    -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the duplicates have been fixed.

  • How to identify a substring in a file name to a desition.

    I took the script following this post: http://forums.Adobe.com/message/5328636 published by Paul Riggott:

    records = FindAllFolders (topLevel, records);
    Folders.unshift (topLevel);

    for (var an in files) {}
    List of files of the var = folders [a].getFiles("*.psd");
    for {(var z in the list of files)

    docRef var = open (fileList [z]);

    here function if() if the file name of the opened file contains a certain substring if she does not run "Action2", run "Action1"...
    {
    app.doAction ("Action1", "Set1");
    } else {}
    app.doAction ("Action2", "Set2");

    File1 - color.psd

    otherfile.PSD

    another - that - color.psd

    1836 - file.psd

    And so forth... published in the files, so I need to identify files that contain 'color' in the name of the file, and if necessary, perform an action, or run another.

    As simple as that, but I'm not a javascript expert, and I don't know how to do this.

    Can someone help me complete my script?

    Please try

  • How to identify the expressions of folklore in the lot while reading File adapter

    Hello
    I have a bepl process to read data from a batch of 100 records text file and write in an Oracle EBS interface table.
    After the completion of the above, I have to call a partner link.
    Problem here is that, how to identify the expressions of folklore, so that I could call my link partner in BPEL.
    How do I get there? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    You can implement a separate process, say FileNotificationProcess, you call the link partner, based on the batch Manager wsdl to $ORACLE_HOME/bpel/system/xmllib/jca/BatchManager.wsdl. This new process would be notified of different States of the file reading activity:
    # onBatchReadStart - indicates when a file is started to read
    # onBatchReadComplete - indicates when a file is done playing
    # onBatchReadFailure - tells when a record cannot be processed by the infrastructure of adapters.
    In your case, you would call the partnerlink when a notification of "onBatchReadComplete" is sent.

    In your main process to the file adapter, add the below property, so that the file adapter would inform the new process of the different stages of the processing of batch file.

    bpel://default|FileNotificationProcess
    

    This is described in detail in BPEL best practices guide page 3-18 http://download.oracle.com/technology/tech/soa/soa_best_practices_1013x_drop3.pdf and the article excellent blog of anthony at http://blogs.oracle.com/reynolds/2008/06/more_on_batch_processing_in_bp.html.

  • How to filter uploaded duplicate pictures in "Photos".

    How to filter uploaded duplicate pictures in "Photos" (in order to remove duplicates)...?

    Usually, Photos should you cannot import duplicates. It will give a warning if you try to import an exact replica.  You are importing different versions of the same photos?

    Photos has no tools to search for duplicates. You would need a third party program to analyze the library of Photos of duplicates.

    I can recommend these:

    • Pictures of power will detect duplicates, if the file attributes are the names of files, identical for example. See this link:

    https://www.fatcatsoftware.com/powerphotos/

    Independent detection of duplicates, it is a great tool to use in combination with pictures.

    • PhotosSweeper is very versatile for find duplicates in a different state of the edition or the size. It will detect cropped versions of the same photos, or reduced in size, as it will compare the photo, not only the attributes of the file: http://overmacs.com/photosweeper.html
  • How to select multiple duplicates to remove

    I show multiple copies of the same songs in my itunes. It is probably because I have a few external drives with backups attached to my main PC. I want to store the Itunes library, and I know how to remove the duplicates, but can do for simple songs. I want to be able to select all duplicates and remove it at once. Does anyone know how I could do this?

    You can select a range of songs by selecting one, and then shift-click on another, you can add or remove individual tracks with ctrl + click and ctrl + shift + click can add a new group to the selection. However, I would recommend the following...

    iTunes can create duplicates if the same content is added several times from outside the media folder when it is about to make copies of everything that is added to the library, or is added from an external drive that hosts the press kit that was disconnected during the launch of iTunes.

    Official notice of Apple on the duplicates is here: find and remove duplicates in your iTunes library. This is a manual process and article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as the lost coast and membership of playlist, or sometimes the same file can be represented by multiple entries in the library as well as a removal and recycling the file will break all the others.

    Use MAJ > display > show items to reproduce exactly to display the duplicates because it is normally a selection more useful. You must manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sort the list by Date added can make easier select appropriate tracks, but it works better when executed immediately after the dupes were created.  If you have several entries in iTunes connected to a same file on the disk hard then don't not send to trash.

    Use my DeDuper script (Windows only) If you are not sure, do not want to do it by hand, or want to maintain ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this background thread , this post for detailed instructions and Please take note of the warning toback up your library before deduping.

    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to temporarily view or CTRL + B to keep displayed.)

    The latest version of the script can put away the dead links as long as there is at least a double live to merge his stats and membership of the playlist and must deal wisely when the same file has been added through multiple paths.

  • How can I find duplicate photos?

    How can I find duplicate photos?

    On Photos for Mac?

    Photos will find them for you, when you migrate iPhoto library to Photos, or when you import pictures, or transfer the pictures to iCloud photo library. on these occasions photos is searching for duplicate photos and store the originals in doubles only once. It is so unlikely, that you have an exact replica of the original images in your photo library, you can have versions however duplicate of the same photo, if you he duplicated before edit. Duplicate versions don't require storage space.

    If you have duplicate pictures Photos could not recognize them as duplicates, because the original files are different in some way, Photos can not detect them.  In this case, you need a tool to search for them. Photo Sweeper can compare images based on histograms or bitmaps and detect duplicate versions, which have been scaled down in resolution or edited.
