I can't copy my backup files saved in Firefox. I have in the folder.

When I opened Firefox this morning, Ask.com had returned to the site of Firefox. I closed and reopened Firefox and a window appeared asking me to update and I did. That got rid of the Nick of Ask.com , but all my favorites have been transferred to a folder on my desktop. I tried all of the solutions in the support site and if all the files still appear in my profile, I can't get back them on my
Opening page of Firefox. Help!

  • Error - backup file is not found or is not the file you requested.

    Original title: restoration of Windows XP utility gives "file not found error.

    Hello
    I have Windows XP SP3 on my system. I tried to restore my backup file I had created a few months back. and I get the following error:
    "Backup file is not found or is not the file you requested.
    even though I am pointing to the correct file.

    It is possible (although I'm not sure) can I have left my backup file a different location for a more current. However, in the Restore Wizard, I'm still that it points to the current file.

    I followed the instructions of Dena in the following post:
    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_xp-system/cannot-restore-files-from-computer-backup-on/4c3ac6eb-c8f5-4DB9-BA56-e158e057f828

    However, it does not help. When I try to catalog them by following the steps, an hourglass appears, but there is no algorithmic activity event. So if I move my mouse even slightly, the hourglass disappears and is replaced by the pointer. Then when I try to work with the backup file, I get the same error as above.

    Please help me with this restoration! There is a huge amount of data which suddenly went 'pfoosh' one morning. people say we should have backups for buffering against these events, but a pity that my backup doesn't even work! Help, please! I would really appreciate it.

    Thank you

  • I can longer open attached pdf files. I am able to preview the files, but they are too small for me to read.

    * Original title: attachments

    Help, please.

    I did something wrong (AGAIN!)

    I had no problem with access to attachments to my e-mails, but a problem occurred just.

    I can longer open attached pdf files.  I am able to preview the files, but they are too small for me to read.  When I click to open all the I get now is a kind of icon (in Microsoft Office Picture Manager) with which I can't do anything.

    It seems I should have arranged for Picture Manager automatically opens attachments to emails, but when this happens, I'm stuck as what I try, I can't do pdf files appear as they did.

    The help file does not really help.

    I hope it is something simple, even an old fool like me can do with your expert (and, I hope. friendly) help.

    My fingers are crossed.

    My apologies if I offended Protocol - this is my first venture.regards

  • How can I dynamically load swc files using as3? (without relying on the Flash IDE).

    How can I dynamically load swc files using as3? (without relying on the Flash IDE).

    The SWF file can be used in the same way as the CFC, which means that you don't need to "visually show" anything when it is loaded. Your code can use the classes and assets incorporated into the SWF, just as a SWC file. So if someone just to load the SWF file to see what was in it that they see nothing. They could however access programmatically to what anyone on the inside just like you, if they went to that level. But it is not as easy as just racing as SWF to see what is inside.

    I hope that all packaging several separate sovereigns will allow you to load and unload only what you need to keep the RAM usage as low as possible with a minimum load SWF.

    If you are ready, please mark all useful/correct so we can filter without response. You're welcome and good luck!

  • Power options can be copied to a file?

    There are many Options of food, especially under Advanced settings (brightness, require a password on wake up, etc.).  It would be very useful to be able to copy these options and the current settings for management of power supply in a text file or a Word document, or something like that.  It would be much easier to see them like that than to have to scroll through a lot of them and having to click on it a lot to see what the options are.  It would also be a good way of documenting the current settings in case they are lost or if they need to be put into a new computer or something.

    Yes, this can be done.  You can run it from the high command prompt or put everything in a single batch file that is run as an administrator.  This is the batch file that I use [I have added explanations for each bit in brackets]

    powercfg/l > D:\SystemSettings\PowerPlans\PowerPlansList.txt

    [the above line creates a list like this:-]

    [Existing power management (* Active)]
    -----------------------------------
    [Power Scheme GUID: 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e (balanced) *]
    [Power Scheme GUID: 53e6f3f1-c9fb-431c-8099-293a3c1a3938 (reading)]
    [Power Scheme GUID: 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c (high performance)]
    [[Power Scheme GUID: a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a (Power saver)]]

    [The next four lines exporting power management so they can be imported, using a similar command, if I wanted to restore them - so these lines belong to the backup of the batch file.]  The central part of each line sets the destination to the folder I want to keep it in and then the last part of each line gives the identification code GUID for each power plan indicated in the copied above results.]

    powercfg-export 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e 'D:\SystemSettings\PowerPlans\Balanced.pow '.
    powercfg-export 'D:\SystemSettings\PowerPlans\Reading.pow' 53e6f3f1-c9fb-431c-8099-293a3c1a3938
    powercfg-export 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c 'D:\SystemSettings\PowerPlans\HighPerformance.pow '.
    powercfg-export a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a 'D:\SystemSettings\PowerPlans\PowerSaver.pow '.

    [The following four lines create text files of all of the properties, including hidden properties, each power plan in the same folder that I have used before.  [If I never look through the files I copy all of the text, then paste it in Excel, because it is much easier to move the results in this way.]

    powercfg - qh 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e > "D:\SystemSettings\PowerPlans\Balanced.txt."
    powercfg - qh 53e6f3f1-c9fb-431c-8099-293a3c1a3938 > 'D:\SystemSettings\PowerPlans\Reading.txt '.
    powercfg - qh 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c > "D:\SystemSettings\PowerPlans\HighPerformance.txt."
    powercfg - qh a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a > "D:\SystemSettings\PowerPlans\PowerSaver.txt."

    [If you look at each of the properties in these results, that you can feel overwhelmed at first. In each property, there may be enough information to understand what it is. Alternatively, you can look back in the interface of normal eating plan to help understand some of the better properties.   You can also refer to PMPolicy_Windows.docx, see power policy Configuration and deployment in Windows and any information provided by the manufacturer of the device of design.

  • What happened to vista can not copy and replace files can only merge with my outside

    Hello. I look online. I see on my last update of windows, 4-2015, when I copy my documents or I just copy a folder that was my backup external drive upgrade that copy and replace it is now gone and he only asks you if you want to merge the files. I don't want to merge my files and not happy about it. What is my old folder and what is my new. It seems that Microsoft is now trying to do more work for the user. The process used to be simple. I use my old vista computer and waiting for my new computer which has Windows 7pro.

    You had a good thing going with the copy and replace he composed easy support. Now I have a folder in a folder that is so my old and who has been my update to easily remove the old. I don't know why you guys did this. No I don't have to go into my backup and delete the folder in there, it would be too long. So, how do we change that back to use, copy and replace the product, do this for all conflicts etc.?

    Thank you for your help

    Hi, Yes, I know this is how it should work, but was funny. It's a problem with my old computer I think. I am trying the implementation of a new system and when I downloaded 'documents' on my new machine everything behaved normally and he did the right folder thing.  So it doesn't seem to be a problem with my old vista machine that goes down! In addition, I scan my external HD before download of the new machine.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I have a Win 7 PC and one PC XP network (wireless and using the same router).

    My goal is to copy and paste all the files that I have worked over the last 24 hours of my Win 7 PC to my XP PC, and this is the script that I have to do:

    c:\data - r dir |? {! ($_. {PSIsContainer) - AND $_.lastwritetime - gt (get-date) .date} |
