I have two files desktop.ini in my pictures folder - why they are in the pictures folder?
I have two files in my photo folder, which are desktop.ini files. Why would they be in my photo folder and can I delete them?
Desktop.ini files are system configuration files. When you remove them, they reappear with the default settings at one time. If you don't want to see them, learned to Tools, Folder Options, view and check the option hide the operating system (recommended) protected files .

Disable the creation of files desktop.ini in Windows 8
Hi all
I want to know if this is a way to disable the creation of files desktop.ini, at least in the desktop system folder.
I knew that under XP there was a DWORD key which should be created to avoid creating all the desktop.ini files in the computer.
I don't want the desktop.ini file features (personalization of icon, remembering the last display in each folder options, etc.)
So I don't want to hide the desktop.ini files. I want to remove them and avoid Windows 8 create again and again.
If Microsoft has disabled this customization which was present in the earlier version of Windows and now is not available (to disable the creation of files desktop.ini) just say. If there is some other registry key to be created or modified, please advise.
Thank you
Pablo.
Hi Pablo.
I would like to inform you that the Desktop.ini is a system file that addresses common issues, such as downloads, Documents, photos and music etc. When a change is made in these files, Desktop.ini is updated.
Deleting the file will cause problems with the operating system and it is not recommended to delete the files. The default desktop.ini a hidden system file and read-only attributes assigned.
If you want to stop these messages, go to the files through Search Options, click settings and you will see the Folder Options, click on it and the view tab and scroll down until you see "Hide protected operating system files (recommended) and put a checkmark in the box."
Hope that answers your query. You can write back to us for other queries/problems related to windows and we will be happy to help you further.

I recently updated my computer to Windows 7 Pro. I also have a laptop running Vista Pro. I have configured remote desktop on my Windows 7 machine to allow my laptop to access and it works fine when I work the two machines on the same Linksys WRT54 router, here at my small business. I have configured my router to allow communications to port 3389, but as soon as I take my computer laptop home, I can't access my desktop computer. I have to configure my home router as well? It's a new Motorola ADSL router/modem and no place in the configuration to allow port forwarding or port address. Help!
Hello
We are unable to access a computer from another computer if they are in another network by using remote desktop.

Original title: scams?
I continue to receive calls from numbers not available with an Indian accent saying that they are from the Technical Department of windows and I have a problem with my computer. Normally, I just say that I don't have and hung up. Today, I took a little further and he said that they discovered that I had loads of malware/viruses etc and that they could identify with them. I was obviously very suspicious because he seemed to have my correct Windows ID number and with care on 'Run' he told me to type things like cmd eventviewer and inf where he referred to a file 1394.pnf. I stopped while he asked remotely to access my computer. However, I got a phone number 01916450337 and his P786000 id I noticed that many people are posting on your forum-is this another one of those scams?
Continue to put the phone down. They are all crooks.
They get you to open Event Viewer, because there are words such as 'critical' and 'error' along the this.

If I use iCloud photo library to share photos on my Mac, make the stay of the files full original size on my Mac or they stored in the cloud?
Thank you!
The photos full size will always go to the cloud. They also remain on (or download) your Mac depends on if 'Download this Mac originals' or 'Optimize Mac storage' is ticked in Photos > Preferences > iCloud. If it is enabled, it also depends on how much storage is available on your Mac.

I've upgraded to a newer version of iTunes. When I opened the new iTunes, all of these songs randomly appeared in my iTunes playlist! I have NO idea where they came from. Why they are on my computer, and how to remove them from my iTunes?
I think iTunes might be showing your iCloud music purchases. Go to the menu bar, and unselect display-> show iCloud music purchases.

Hi all!
I'm just curious, why these two tables are different and are they really different in terms of structure, even if they are from the same source? The left is the exit of tdms get properties and the other is a power of arry auto indexed.
Nilesh-
No doubt, you are referring to the visual aspect, since the data are the same. One of them uses a different type of indicator of the chain. You probably click right and choose 'create-> Indicator '. When you perform this LabVIEW will use the same style of indicator as what sub-VI/uses. In case you made directly from the PDM function, but the other was created between the autoindex loop tunnel for, in the second he used everything that was default in your preferences.

Oops think I put all the info in the title.
Uninstalled PSE6 Mac 10.6.8 (had printing problems and wanted to go back)
Reinstalled
Actions not here
Actions show that they are in the folder under the PSE6 Macintosh hard disk in the folder Photo Effects
Deleted Mediadatabase.db3 PSE6 being closed
Computer restarts
PSE6 opened and let regenerate
Still not here
I don't understand. When you uninstall PSE 6, you also uninstall all the third party material, that you added. You have to reinstall them after reinstallation of PSE.

Why file desktop.ini opens in Notepad when I start?
Whenever I have my laptop startup (which is running XP Professional), the desktop.ini file opens in a Notepad file. How can I prevent that to happen?
Thank you!
You don't need to change all attributes on these files. All you have to do is show off system files in Solution Explorer. Hidden files can always be on. Then, they will not appear on the desktop, but they'll appear when you search using the file Explorer. And everything still works.

Can not find the file desktop.ini
I back up my files each week to an external hard drive. When I get asked if I want to copy the desktop.ini file in the HARD disk. Problem is that I can not find where this file is actually located and therefore can not delete it on the source computer. I would like to remove this file to avoid the annoying question whenever I try to save my computer.
I changed the settings for source computer to view the files and hidden folders. After you perform a file search, the system shows a path to the c:\users\valued customer\appdata\roaming\norton utilities 14.This folder contains only a log of the entries, none of which can be edited or deleted.Not sure if I do something wrong by looking for the file "ini".Does anyone have any suggestions?You are welcome.
To clarify, I'm not Andy. I copied and included the link where he was enrolled in its resolution in order to give credit where it is due.
If you don't use Norton, use the uninstall tool to remove all traces of the software. If she has appeared in the past about the 30 day trial and you disabled, perhaps why the desktop.ini file is displayed.
See the solution re: lack of desktop.ini
This fixit deletes the file
Notepad starts with "[.]". "ShellClassInfo] LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\System32\Shell32.dll,-21787" when you start your computer
