I can move swsetup folder

Number of swsetup folder:

I need to free up space on my C drive.  My swsetup folder takes 10% of the C drive.  I want to put it on the D drive.  How can I redirect the HP program that uses files in this folder to get to the D drive?

I use a HP 8770 Elitebook running Windows 7.

The swsetup is separate from the recovery partition. The drivers and preinstalled programs are located in two places. If you run the system from the recovery partition recovery, it will recreate the swsetup folder. Just cut and paste it where you want to store.

  • Can I move the SWSETUP folder

    I have a HP Envy 17 with a 80 GB drive mSata which also has the operating system if space is limited.  The SWSETUP folder is 1.81 GB.  Can I move it to my 1 TB of data disc without consequences?

    Hello

    Yes, you can move this folder - in fact, it is not a bad idea to save a copy on a dvd or flash drive.

    The swsetup folder contains all drivers and most software supplied with your machine - if you use Recovery Manager to reinstall the software/drivers, it's the file accessed, so you would need to move back before using this option.

  • I thought that if I want my machine to boot faster I can move the fonts of the lokal disk documents folder so it does not start them all at the start

    original title: Fonts folder

    I thought that if I want my machine to boot faster, I can move the folder of fonts of the lokal disk to documents so it does not start them all at the start, and since I got them in the documents that I usually have no error saying that im their lack is this true? I have enough disk space hard as I don't care to remove them the reason why I want to do is if my machine starts as soon as possible thank you in advance!

    Don't listen to anyone who has you said that.
     
    The best way to speed up your computer is to eliminate startup items which are unnecessarily run at startup.  Go to start | Search and type msconfig and then see what is running at startup and what other services are underway then as well.  You can eliminate selectively and then evaluate how fast your computer runs.

  • How can I move the folder of my users on a different Partition?

    Hi, I recently bought Windows 7 for my PC.

    I want to know how to move my complete record of users (C:\Users) to my D drive partition, that make (D:\Users) and then remove the users from the C drive folder, so that all my files and user data are stored on my D drive partition, since my C drive is for the OS and drivers only. Now, I know that you can move files within your name in the users, by right-click folder and clicking on the location tab, but this option is not available on the users folder itself. If it is not possible to move all of the users folder, find at least one solution where I can move my folder by name (C:\Users\Jord) D drive instead.

    Thanks in advance

    -Jordan

    I answered this question at least three times in the last few days/weeks. Please visit the following links. Some are on the folder C:\Users (work folder to be more general) while others refer to the same concept, but for different folders. I hope this helps.

  • Satellite U400-138: can I move the folder of recovery

    Hello

    I just bought my nw laptop Toshiba (U400-138 to be precise).
    It came with Windows Vista Home Premium preinstalled with the possibility to recover the HARD disk. When installing the disk has been partitioned like this:

    C: / 145 GB - Windows Vista
    E: / 150 GB - Data

    The E drive the folder of HARD disk recovery.
    The problem here is that I would use Linux instead of Vista and also I want to re - partition the drive in a different way.

    So here are my questions:

    1.) it is possible to move the folder of disk recovery HARD to separate and perhaps much more small partition (6 GB or more) without doing any harm to its functionality? I want to keep just in case

    2.) I lose my warranty if I install Linux?

    Thx for your replies ;)

    Hello

    (1) If you change the folder or delete file recovery that you will not be able to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive!
    That is why it s is strongly recommended to create a diskette using the creative tool for recovery disk pre-installed Toshiba's own recovery.
    If you create this DVD then you are on the right side and you can change everything on the HARD drive. If something goes wrong, you will be able to restore the operating system using this disk.

    (2) No, you will not lose warranty if install you Linux

  • Move the folder of Photos on an external drive

    Hello my MacBook Air is near capacity. I'm going through iTunes and Photos on an external drive to free up disk space on the internal drive. I searched the threads and found the right solution for iTunes. I moved the entire iTunes folder to the external drive. Then, in the Advanced tab of iTunes preferences, I made the file to the new location on the external hard drive. That worked very well.

    Now, I'm ready to try the same process with my library of Photos (which also includes years of photos iPhoto migrated). Can I move the folder full of images (as I did with iTunes) or simply pictures library on external drive? My suspicion is the entire pictures folder, because it also contains the migrated iPhoto Pictures folders, Lightroom, Adobe and Photo Booth also. After searching for the discussions, it is not clear to me how to do it with pictures.

    Thank you

    Jon

    You can move either; Once completed, launch Photos with the key Option key, click library and choose the one on the external hard drive. ITunes library should be moved in the same way rather than change the setting in the preferences.

  • in OUTLOOK EXPRESS, I can move me is more Inbox files to remove the box. Why?

    As indicated in the title.  This started after I had moved it, maybe 1000 email, delete.  I've since removed the deleted and the problem persists.  Most forms of delete not only react.  When I drag the file to delete, I have a popup saying basically, ' year error has occurred ", computer is currently low, but everything seems to work - including in and e-mail.   Thank you

    Deleted items is probably damaged. On the off chance that you want messages to be saved in deleted items, (a garbage can), move them to a local folder, you create and then follow these steps.
     
    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, the files of user OE (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
     
    With OE closed, find the DBX file for deleted items and delete it.  Another will be created automatically when you open OE.
     
     
     
    General precautions for Outlook Express:
     
    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
     
    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095
     
    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
     
    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
     
    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
     
    In tools | Options | Maintenance: Uncheck Compact messages in the background box and let it unchecked. {N/a if running XP/SP2}.
     
    And backup often.

    I have a folder of photos that I opened to see several thumbnails. I can left click on a picture and it will open full screen. Then I left click on this image and the next should show but nothing happens. I can use the keyboard arrows to move to the next photo, but I can't use the mouse. The left click works for everything I use it for. I've used regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll and he said DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in shimgvw.dll succeeded. This does not solve the problem. This isn't a big deal, it just bugs _ on me because I'm a perfectionist. Thank you for your response and any other help would be appreciated.

  • "You need give the administrator permission to move this folder.

    So I recently downloaded a video file, which is currently sitting in my downloads folder. No matter when I try to move it to my documents, it says that I have to give the administrator permission to move the folder. Then it gives me the opportunity to continue, to jump or cancellation. When I hit continue, it will give me a pop-up that says that Windows needs my permission to run the program. I give him my permission, and then another pop up window will go up tells me access denied. If I hit try again, he fails again.

    My account is the only account on this computer and I am also the Director, because there was no way for me to not be, and he also says that I am when I look at my account information. But whenever I try to give him permission to continue, it tells me that I need administrator permission to continue.

    Also, this isn't the first time that I denied access to my own files even as administrator, after I tried to give the administrator permission to access. Is there something special I need to do as an administrator to actually have the ability to give permission?

    This is probably a permissions or ownership issue sust.  Right-click on the folder and click Properties and add you as a user authorized in its own right.  Go to advanced and do the same thing on this scren as well.  Then go into the property tab and take over the case.  If this does not work, you may need to do the same for the parent folder as well (and maybe it's the parent).  Finally, you should be able to access and move the folder.

    Here are a few guidelines and procedures dealing with permissions and ownership that can help:

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  • Windows does not allow me to move a folder

    Whenever I try to move a document to Program Files (x 86) folder it asks the permission of the administrator, I confirm, but then it tells me I need permission to move the folder, even if I have already confirmed that I don't have permission to move. How to spend it?

    Even administrators are prohibited by the authorities of moving files in the Program Files folder - this is how it is implemented.  Why these files must be in this folder?  These permissions can be modified, but must be done only when carried out by Microsoft Support or a work computer (who both know how to go beyond this problem) to avoid problems of your other programs.

    It's permissions and ownership information where it would come in handy or useful at some point:

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista:http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/. To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  • How can I remove folder rip of monitored files of Windows Media Player 11?

    RIP my CD to wav files on an external drive that I can use to make compilations of disc or mp3, but if I put this drive to be Windows Media Player rip folder, it includes it in the library of almost anything. As much as I have a separate player for mp3 (Yes, I don't keep my music in My Documents, Microsoft; I really don't like my music down from the ship), it includes the files wav and mp3 s, causing duplicates in my library. I only want to listen to mp3 because I use a computer as a network hub to my mp3.

    How can I delete the folder rip as a watched folder, and why Microsoft does not insist on what actually monitored? I don't see the point. I now do a temp folder just for tears and move the wav files on before turning back to my library. Pain.

    Hi dhinged,

    Ripped files are automatically added to the Windows Media Player library. On the computer, the files are in the folder specified on the tab extract music from the Options dialog box. You can change the folder at any time, but it can not be removed from monitored by Windows Media Player.
    Ref: where can I find the files that I ripped?

    I suggest you to create folders separated external hard disk (wav) files ripped to mp3 so that you can monitor folders separately.
    Ref: To change the files are controlled by the player: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Add-items-to-the-Windows-Media-Player-library

  • Can I delete folder AppData Roaming?

    Original title: AppData Roaming folder

    I moved (copy) the AppData Roaming folder on an external drive using the Windows tool in the Panel properties (location tab). Can I now he remove it from my C drive? It takes 10 GB of space and I am running low in the space on my C drive. Running Win 7.

    My hard drive is divided into C and d. lecteurC operating system (primarily) and other things/stuff I can't control. All my programs are in D.

    "What the system did, he made a copy of the entire folder to the new location of the itinerant, but left the old one in the same place."

    Is the current folder, the 'real' Roaming folder, or shortcuts in the "library"?
    The 'real' case should have been moved, and that would create a 'library' in the process.

    You could try an experiment (assuming that you don't talk to libraries).
    Rename the Roaming folder or create a new subfolder in the folder of homelessness and
    Move all existing files/sub-sub-sub-folders in it.
    Create a new subfolder is perhaps the best option to avoid Windows, create another folder Roaming.
    -If you have problems with the software that uses that data and then move the files back in the
    original file of Roaming.

    You wouldn't make a lot of disk space HARD that moving the issue of homelessness.
    I believe that most people move the folder of the user, or music, videos and photos files if they have
    a lot of these files, when requiring more disk space.

  • Try to move the folder ' AppData/Local' to another hard drive without success...

    Hi all

    I have a problem which seems to have been discussed here, a few years back, but it seemed no resolution at the time.

    The problem is, I am trying to get my personal files moved to drive B: to the C: drive.

    This to Re-partitioning of the C: drive for less of a catastrophe should my drive C: never kick the bucket.

    I found the instructions online to move all (Local, LocalLow and roaming files.  The instructions worked well upward, to the folder (Local).

    I can't make it move.  I checked the permissions and I should be OK here as I am the only user and administrator.  All are checked in the Security tab.

    Bottom line is I have aprox. 1.7 GB of info that I probably need to move to this folder (Local) and still can not.

    I am attaching a sample of the message that I get trying to move the property path.

    Can someone help me out here telling me:

    (1) is it possible to move this folder?

    (2) what I lose if I have a dead hard drive, if the (Local) file is not moved to the other disk?

    (3) any person having legitimate suggestions, who has the same goal as me and want the cold hard facts to do that, we can

    get help?

    To all those who give their time, many thanks in advance and best wishes to you!
