I'm trying to copy picture files from C: to D: readers. How can I do

I need more space on my C: drive and you want to copy the image files on the D: drive and remove them from the C: drive.  I can't find a solution on how to do it.  BACK was easy, but there seems to be no program for that.

Two ways:

  • Open a Windows Explorer window and navigate to the directory that contains the image files
  • Open a second Windows Explorer window and navigate to the drive D:\ (or to a new folder that you create on D: using file > New > folder).
  • Drag and drop in the 2nd window.  See http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Moving-and-copying-files-by-using-the-drag-and-drop-method you can do this one at a time or select multiple files using the CTRL or SHIFT key.  If you use the right instead of the left mouse button while you drag, you'll get a menu that allows you to choose whether you want to MOVE or COPY (best practice is to COPY then DELETE after that you don't know the copy did what you wanted;) MOVE automatically deletes the source files after their copy to the destination).

Or

  • Open a Windows Explorer window and navigate to the directory that contains the image files.
  • If the left pane of the window does not display a list of common tasks, make sure that the button 'search', or the 'Files' button in the explore toolbar is selected.
  • Select the files to copy/move, using CTRL or SHIFT as you wish
  • Under "file and folder tasks", click on "copy this file.
  • Navigate to the destination folder, and click "copy."

  • DSA files: I can't watch avd files from a dvd disc. How can I do this?

    I can't look at avd files from a dvd disc. How can I do this

    DSA files are 7 BACK.  I spent nearly 45 minutes looking for any program that would read this type of file and could happen to any (see below - it may as well have been none).  I don't know the reason, you can't look at AVD files from a DVD disc is because he has not installed software capable of reading this file type.  None of the major software look at programs to support this type of file and I could not even find a 3rd party single program (freeware, demo, shareware or ware) that claims to be able to read this type of file (and I spent more than 45 minutes, looking in all the obvious places: www.download.com,www.tucows.com, Bing and Google). I could also find no program which converts the AVD files into a format readable by standard viewers.

    Well, this is not quite correct.  I found the folllowing: http://media-geek.com/index.php?option=com_docman&task=doc_details&Itemid=142&gid=160 but I do not qualify to become a member (and doubt do you either) and the program is not in the home page of the manufacturer list (which means maybe he is no longer available or taken in charge) and it does not say what operating systems it is compatible with (so I don't know if this works with Vista even if we could get at the point of download it which I doubt somehow).  I'm not even sure that it is applicable for the DVD you have.

    Indeed, if it was already possible with earlier versions of Windows or Windows software, I do not think it is no longer possible.

    You can search by yourself and I wish you success.

    Good luck!

  • How can I copy image files from my computer to a flash drive

    I copied all my photos in the photo library & am now trying to copy the files from photo to flash player... never did before transfer... How can I do this

    Photo Gallery is just an 'intermediate '. It does NOT store images/photos.
    Images/photos are stored in the folder. Are your looking for in the pictures folder.

    Plug your USB > start > computer > click the flash drive > open folder images > drag and dropn photos images in the flash player.
    That's all.

  • Copy a file from one computer to another

    Hi all

    I am trying to copy a file from a computer (where I program CVI) to another computer on the same network. How do I do? Can I use library functions plug supplied by C or y at - it of the other libraries available in labwindows?

    Thank you

    Kanu

    CopyFile () in the library of the utility accepts UNC paths, so you can do something like this:

    CopyFile ("MyFile.txt", "\\\remotePC\\remoteFolder\\myfile.txt");

    Avoid conflicts between this function and the corresponding Windows API function with the same name: read the online help for explanations.

    Simpler is better, don't you think?

    There are two approaches you can take.

    One solution: you can copy files into smaller "chunks" until you identify the file that causes the error, and then try to find out what is the problem with this file.

    Another solution is to download the program "Robust copy" (Robocopy) to Microsoft and it allows to copy your files.  You download and install in the Windows 2003 Resource Kit (works fine on XP).

    Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit:
    <>http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=17657 >

    Once installed, you can open a command prompt window (start-> Run-> "cmd") and enter the command:
    Robocopy "C:\photos" 'E:\photos' /R:5 / s
    Where "C:\photos" will be replaced by the source directory, and the 'E:\photos' is the destination directory.  the "/ S" option will copy the subdirectories and the R:5 option retries 5 times on error before moving on to the next file.  Errors should be displayed on the screen and I found errors of command line to be more descriptive than GUI errors.  There are a lot more options, but this should help you get started.

  • When I try to copy the files from Windows Mail on Vista on a USB key I get the message "you are about to copy this file without its properties

    I move the file from my old PC which took place with Vista on a new computer running with Win 10 where I have Windows Live Mail is installed.  When I try to copy the files from Windows Mail on Vista on a USB key I get the message "you are about to copy this file without its properties".  After studying this issue on the forums, a proposed solution was to reformat the drive in NTFS format, I did.  This does not solve the problem.  Any suggestions?  Would it be OK in this case to ignore the message and copy the file without its properties?

    Well data files/user of vista should work. Yes a NTFS format is good, go to run, or cmd, type:

    diskmgmt.msc in msc, R.click on the material, delete the partition, create one, format. Use the default settings,

  • Im trying to delete a file from my computer...

    Im trying to delete a file from my computer to free up space sum but when I go to delete it is impossible to delete the file "C:\6ace0ee039abdce9ea240" said. Nothings lock or something. So I don't know what can someone give me an overview of sum?

    This is most likely a temporary file created by a security or other Windows update.  Restart the PC and see if you can delete it then.  If this isn't the case, then you may want to assess the question to seize the property and removing against evil, it could cause if it isn't a vestige.  In addition, he is unlikely to win a significant amount of disk space, clean as you do only puts off the coast of the inevitable hard drive upgrade - if the drive is full, get a larger.
