I can find no apparent way to remove a file (document) so that in Word Pad!

THE TITLE SAYS IT ALL.  IT IS THERE NO OPTION DELETE ON MY WORDPAD TOOLBARS!  THE ONLY WAY I have FOUND to REMOVE A FILE IS BY GOING TO THE LAST CHARACTER IN THE DOC AND pressing REPEAT BACKSPACE.  THIS DOES ' T REMOVE THE DOC, JUST THE WORDS ON THE DOC FILE.  IT SHOULD BE HAVE A TRASH ICON ACTIVATES THE TOOLBAR OR RIGHT CLICK MENU.  OR LOOKING AT THE LIST OF FILES, YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO RIGHT CLICK AND SELECT REMOVE FROM THE MENU... IS NOT AVAILABLE.    I think that whoever wrote "Word Pad" had transferred just above the group who wrote Windows Live Mail!

I use often to WordPad, but when you save a document, save you it to a location outside of WordPad. Don't know if you open the document, you can't delete in WordPad, but you can remove it where it lies. MS Word and Corel WordPerfect are the same in this regard. Also, if you want to clear all text, Ctrl + A and then delete done that fast.

    How can I change the page size of a pdf document so that I can check on my iphone more clearly?

    This is way beyond what can be done with PDF, except by copying the text and make a new document in Word or something.

    That said, Adobe Reader on Windows may display the text AS IF the PDF file has been divided. It's the text reformatting. It may be possible in Reader for iPhone, you can try the player for ios forum.

  • How to remove a file or remains that you can't find.

    I'm trying to remove the center mouse & keyboard. I deleted the file, but cannot charge, because it tells me that it is always installed even though I can find no trace of normal means. I need to completely remove a program which I can't find. Someone has an answer.

    You should never just delete program files directly.  If you want to uninstall something, go to control panel, select uninstall a program.

    If your deletion of the file caused to break, you want to UN-delete the file it out of the trash and put it back where it belongs.  You can use the good uninstall process instead.

  • Where can I find and how to really remove all sensitive security information that I want to get rid of?

    I use a couple of computers with XP and Windows 7.  Using the Internet Explorer browser.  I don't want to download another program to clean or to make it safer.  Security programs are touted on the web saying items that are supposedly deleted are always truly accessible.  Where one looks for them and how to get rid of them?

    Examples:

    1. credit card is in a file on your desktop.  Send to trash and then go and delete it.  Is it zapped for good?

    2 can secure information sitting somewhere in Internet Explorer?  A purchase online.  All what?

    3 remove a file from the yahoo mail bin.  Is it gone forever?

    On and so forth!  I'm sure I have just come from a few areas of danger.  Where are you looking at and how do you zap it?

    Thank you.

    Thank you.  But I don't want to erase my hard drive.

    I did not indicate that you clean your hard drive.  Ah...  I see where, if they did not bother to go beyond the cover/title, might think that...

    I gave you options (pointing out you would have to use some third-party utilities and I even reported a utility built into Windows 7) allowed to erase safely files/folders - and encryption of a hard drive not necessarily require wiping your hard drive either.

    You can read the web page of the utility of Windows 7 that I linked to...  Often somethings title can be misleading: it is the content of the actual article you want to read.

    Quoting the article:

    The command is simply cipher /w x:\folder where you would substitute x:\folder for the location desired, wiped, for example your drive D:\ or in your C:\Users\Mike Halsey\Music folder.

    So, as you can see, you could erase safely on a folder on your system - no need to clean the entire disk.

    Perhaps, by doing your research for you, I came across something that will make things clearer, even the title is less extreme:

    How to use Cipher.exe to overwrite deleted in Windows
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315672

    This is an article over which shows the person who wrote the other article was not only bad to come with descriptive titles, but to make the hypothesis of the tool had simply added the command/w command-line option, was also wrong on how long this particular function of the utility could rely.

    It is many more items that I found for you based on the information that I gave you already (Google works wonders) and maybe one of them will better explain the use of the CIPHER command to erase data securely...

    I hope that you now understand the suggestion of ENCRYPTION and can be used to do what you want to do (although I'm not positive that it would work better than many small tools third available like eraser to erase the eraser.heidi.ie or portable PortableApps.comversion.)

    I would add that Richard g. Harper was not completely far-fetched.  Many places clears their readers like this or with even more damage than that.  I work in a place where the player must actually be melted to slag or he is still considered a security risk.  Some use things like this , or like this...  Although I have taken your question as you were simply eager to erase files on your drive hard work, not the entire disk and all data that it contained so that no one could get it back AFTER you have been made.

    Good luck to you!

  • Help me remove music files duplicate 4700 that grows like rot on a

    Could not stop the download of multimedia information and have now 4700 music files that continue to grow

    Help, please.

    To begin with, I'd stop any application that can be download all these files, Windows Explorer, itunes, Media Player, or other. Set to zero if you have to. Then I would start in Mode safe mode and do a few things.

    Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

    I hope this helps. Good luck.

  • How to remove undeleteable file

    In the rest of a repertoire of HP (I uninstalled the printer), I have three files (.dll) to a folder that I can't remove. Whenever I try to delete it, I get a message "...". the folder or file is open in another program. "I downloaded two FileAssassin and Unlocker programs, but they have been unable to remove these programs. Then I stoped service Explorer.exe and tried to delete these files to the prompt nothing helps. I cleaned the registry and deleted all instances of HP, these files are still here...

    I could do to remove these three .dll files?

    HEY, Adam M, thanks for your suggestions. However, last night, after several attempts, I found a way to remove these files. Using a LockHunter, I found svchost was blocking these files. As soon as I stopped this process, I was able to delete the files. The folder and files were remnants of an uninstalled HP printer.

    To guide you in the right direction, I need a little more information of the computer with the problem. Please help me answer the following questions:

    (2) how you try to move the text in a specific document?

    (3) you are able to move the text into a document earlier? What document you speak (Notepad, Word pad, Microsoft Word)

    (4) what exactly happens when you try to move an e-mail in a sub-folder?

    (5) you receive an error message?

    (6) what is the brand and model of the mouse?
