• Under disk cleanup, there is an option to compress old files

  Under disk cleanup, there is an option to compress old files.  Office folklore says that problems come from compressing the files.  Mythology like that change slowly and often does not upward with the reality.  What is the current conventional wisdom on all dangers associated with compressing files?

  Personally, I don't compress files and probably never - if necessary, I'll just get a bigger hard drive (or another hard drive or an external hard drive).  As long as compress you only the correct files (not your files start or something like that), I guess it is quite - safe, but they take longer to open - not much, but some and depends on the size (they need to decompress) practice is always a risk, when something like this as a form of bribery occurs (which is us back to the old mythology (, but the risk is generally considered a minimum and I do not want to exaggerate - but there are).

  Opinions vary among experts and you'll get to the other end of the spectrum.  Some will tell you it is perfectly safe and a good way to save space on your hard drive.  Others take a middle path, and say that they are not positive, but think it's safe, but acknowledge that there are exceptions.  You can see some reactions like the one posted here.  As I said, I personally willnever do (with the exception of some files can I compress for e-mail or because he is great and I expect never to need again, or for other reasons - but they would have been individually selected and completed for a purpose {and using a different program]).  I mean I would never use the option of the files old drive generic cleanup compress to do a little overall with no individual selection (and when I do it with an individual file, it is rare - I probably didn't do so in more than a month - and to be perfectly honest, when I compress a file to send by e-mail I have everything first make a copy and compress the copy and keep the original uncompressed).  I have also seen here situations where people have compressed their files to start with virtually everything else, and this caused them a lot of grief - this isn't an easy repair process and the system does not boot with compressed files (I don't know how they did it-I just saw the messages, but no unread discussions - but if there is no chance that the compression of disk cleanup) been involved (and I'm not, but I did not read how it happened and so I guess it's possible), then it's just another reason for me to stay away).  As you probably now, I don't really have confidence the process (maybe I still have some as old folklore Office in me as I've been around when firstly, he came out and got all these problems) and would rather spend the money on a large or second hard drive what to compress my old files.  I prefer not to take any chance that I don't have in my data which are valuable for me.

  The process is availalble and is generally considered reasonably safe when used properly - but not a lot of experts I know do.  It is MUCH safer than when it came out.  When suggest us ways to save space on the drives for those who have little space and do not want to upgrade or get a new one, it is rare to see someone suggest compression as one of the options (I never do).  We suggest many other alternatives, but I never see this option underlined or specifically suggested (although it may be included as an option in the process we propose you like disk cleanup - and I don't specifically discourage its use is if you heard what I'd say if specifically requested).

  In the end, the decision is yours.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• When you use disk cleanup, drive D C and recovery should be included?

  When you use disk cleanup should you clean disk (C) operating system, and the recovery disc D. Then on drive c must only choose th files that are already enabled as the downloaded programs files and temp. Internet files or you need to clean more options?

  Do NOT run the cleaning or do anything at all on the recovery D: drive.   Do not add files, defragment, compress, chkdsk, or something else.  Let completely alone.

  Insofar as what to remove NSB C:\ drive, this decision is entirely yours.  You can add or remove options as you seem, and that you feel able to make - do as much as you can in these settings.  More your cleaning, the more you'll be available and, in some cases, it can even run your computer to start, and stop faster.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Vista system does not see the files that are on a CD of HP, Intuit and others

  CD allows you to install different products does not work on my Vista Ultimate system when the CD has been made by the manufacturer to support Windows and Mac OS.  These CD work in an XP system and a Windows 7 system. I have two optical drives on the Vista system (two allow DVD writing) and installation CD fail the same way in the two discs.

  If I share a CD drive on the Windows 7 or XP System I and then place the CD in the drive, I can see all the files on the Vista system.  Another CD that do not also for Mac OS work well in all my systems. So far, a single CD of Intuit and two HP is failing.

  I made several complete scans of my system searching for virus using two tools each of Norton and Microsoft and can't find anything.

  When I said above fail, I wanted to say that Windows Explorer displays an incomplete list of files on the CD. To be more precise, the list displayed on the Windows vista system does not include autorun.inf or setup.exe. There are also listed things that should not be registered on a Windows install CD. VolumeIcon.icns and background for example. Basically, it seemed something to tell readers that they are on a Mac system.

  Earlier today, I solved this problem. It seems that someone (probably me or my son) XPlay 3 was installed on the system. For some reason, this included a copy of MacDrive. I think that MacDrive caused the problem by making the part Apple Mac of the CD to be the only part that was visible to my system. I uninstalled XPlay 3 and everything works fine now.

• Windows Media Center does not display my photos. I tried to re-setup my album and it shows my files but no pictures in them. I can see my photos in all viewers

  all my photos are in JPEG format, I download my photos on several websites and on my Windows live.com page, I also see with Windows Live Photo Gallery, I use Adobe Photoshop 7 to edit and save my pictures in .jpeg format, I can visualize in Picasa, PhotoStudio, ZoomBrowers EX etc.. I can spend my photos to one of my other computers and my pictures by e-mail, and they can be consulted. I open one of my photos in Photoshop and saved in a folder on my desktop in .jpeg and .bmp and it does not display. I sort my folder in date and make sure that hidden files is checked. I know I'm missing something, but still nothing.

  Hello
   
  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!
   
  How long have you had this problem?

  All files compatible photo in your library in Windows will appear in Media Center, including whatever it is stored in the folder my pictures or public photo. If you store images somewhere else, like an external hard drive, you can add them to the Media Center as well. To learn how, see Add files to media in Windows Media Center.

  The following is a list of reasons why an image will not display in Media Center, as well as suggestions for correcting the problem.

  • The picture file type is not supported in Media Center. For example, some digital camera photos are saved in the RAW file format, which is not supported in Media Center. If you have a photo editing software, try to open the picture in that program, and then resaving in a file type that is supported (for example, JPEG). To see what types of files are supported in Media Center, see file types supported by Windows Media Center.

  • The file is corrupted. If this is the case, try to open the image in another photo editing program, and then save it back into a different file type. For more information on the damaged files, see the files corrupted: frequently asked questions.

  • The file is hidden. You can view a hidden file by changing its properties in Windows. For more information, see Show hidden files.

• Is it possible to save your project who keeps only files that are used in the order and get rid of files that you do not use?

  my project is at an advanced stage now, a lot of media loaded up and its got to the point where the project keeps "forgetting" his makes (the line goes to yellow when it should be green)

  I assume that this may be due to the face that I have a lot of media loaded upward there now, including many from the effects of exports which should be large enough

  so, I would like to save the project or export the project in such a way so that it retains only the bare minimum of files that im actually... better still, use if she maintained only the part of the files that are used and stripes out of the rest, but maybe it's wishful thinking?

  I also wonder if I could save the project, bringing files in a separate folder, only the files used in the project

  I'd love to, having someone take the time to clear this up for me.  Thank you

  XP w / Svc Pack3, all updates.  I .jpg I have one trying to delete, but the system tells me it is open or in use by another user.  I closed everything I can find.  There are NO other users on this system.  I tried to reboot the system...

  Boot into safe mode and see if it will remove. Alternatively, you can drag to the C drive and see if it will remove it from there.  If still no joy, try this tool.

  In some cases, a file with a file type that Windows Movie Maker does not support may cause Windows Movie Maker stops responding. This can be caused by incompatible video filters. You can verify what filters are installed and force Windows Movie Maker to avoid loading specific filters by restarting simply Windows Movie Maker.
