I have a stranger followed showing in my library I can't delete it why?

In my library, it shows unknown artist, unknown genre, year unknown, inknown album.

HI - it probably relates to something you have previously changed or moved, so WMP has lost its link with it. Click on the track in WMP and then right-click and select "open file location". If you get the error message saying that the file is not found then, that's what happened (and the reason why you can not remove it).

Then you'll need to do is to restore your WMP library by selecting 'Tools' - 'Advanced' - 'Restore Media Library'. If the 'tools' is not visible, do a right click in the bar at the top right of 'library '. That should fix things. -Cheers, Ric.

  • My Outlook Express Mail 'Delete' does not work. I have 1600 emails in my Outlook Express and I can't delete them!

    For the last week, I was not able to use my function 'Delete' on my Outlook Express.  I have 1600 mails in my 'box' and I need to remove them, but can't.  I don't know how to solve this problem.  Hope someone can help me.

    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:

    Hello

    To enhance the security and performance of your computer, it is recommended to remove the updates.

    If you do not use automatic updating, you must check the updates at least once a week. Microsoft publishes updates generally important on the second and fourth Tuesday of the month. However, updates could be released at any time.

    Over the years there has been many installs new add on hardware like printer, scan again, new monitor etc... also install dropbox, Skype, I-tune and it still all works OK...

    So why do I on my desk this permanent message telling me to activate within 3 days. In fact one day have left the warning that I was missing 2 days already...

    Also, the logo of Microsoft isn't one I recognize... It is a stylized Star 5 points... Is - this all true? Can I go ahead and follow the instructions...?

    Could someone re sure? If poss before 21:00 UK time tonight Sunday, March 31, 2013.

    I have a strange problem with my RAM supported by installers. When I check the activity monitor, 3 installers are open and they start around 80 MB memory RAM used for about 7 or 8 concerts after 10 minutes.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    The last is a picture of the Terminal window.

    Just because it lists 'Console' does not mean that it has nothing to do with this application.

    You have not said why or what you're trying to install so I can't help with that.

    You can use the activity monitor to leave their.

    After you select an item, use the X in a type of stop sign icon and confirm force quit.

    Hello

    I have the windows product key sticker, but some of them are deleted. I really need help if I can send a photo to show him what it's like. I formatted my laptop and he asks the authentic copy. I really need help coz 2 days left to activate.

    Thanks in advance

    Best regards

    You can extend the activation period of 30 days by running slmgr /rearm since the Admin command prompt.

    Then take a picture of your COA sticker with your phone, blow as large as possible to try to detect all the characters input for Activation.  You can also use a magnifying glass.

    If you can not use the key to product then you will need to either the order of the restoration of the factory of the manufacturer of your PC media, or if you have a C:\windows.old folder you can try to reinstall the factory to SLP activation file.  However we do not support this so you will need to search on your own.
