Impossible to rename folders: restores the original name

Original title: file rename rename my computer won't let me not rename folders. Can I rename the files, but not files. I click with the right button on the folder, click on "Rename", enter a new name, press the "enter" button, but nothing happens. The record is just instantly is the old name. What's most frustrating is that this problem only occurs on the profile of the administrator, not the standard user profiles. How can this be repaired?

Create another admin account > this new admin login > try to rename a folder.
If you are able to rename a folder in the new admin account, your old admin account is corrupted.

Difficulty of a corrupted user profile

Note: You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

  • Restoration of openers program: how to restore the original program of opening such as internet explore and itunes instead of notepad ++

    on my computer, I have somehow changed the settings for applications on windows 7 open with notepad ++ how to restore the original program of opening such as internet explore and itunes instead of notepad ++

    I've seen this happen when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After selection of Notepad ++ (or another program) via the Select a program from a list of installed programsand checking the always use the selected program to open this type of file, document or program referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in Notepad ++ as it should.

    The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the browser will want to open Notepad ++ and use the icon of Notepad ++ to display the shortcut no matter what shortcut was originally intentioned to open. This is known as a file association and the default icon.

    The good news is that a small free utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is also a registry hack to achieve, but I recommend the utility unASSOC for its ease of use.

    A utility to Unassociate Types of files in Windows 7 and Vista

    Just download and then use the utility to unassociate the. LNK files. Manual is available on the web page above (the same place to get the utility). Quite simply, you run the program and wait for the list of the types of files to complete. Select. LNK in the list and then click delete the file type.

  • When Lr Mobile sharing it restores the original image?

    When Lr Mobile sharing it restores the original image?

    as the FAQ says Lightroom mobile synchronizes original JPEG, PNG and video files captured by your mobile device in the creative cloud. Lightroom desktop creates and synchronizes the images in the cloud in the form of intelligent insights. Smart insights are more small versions of your files in origin, roughly 1.5 or 2 MB in size, that hold all the flexibility of a raw file. Changes to chip previews automatically synchronize with your originals. The original files remain on your desktop and are not stored, synchronized or used by Lightroom for mobile. As a result, Lightroom for mobile should not be used as a backup service.

    When I save a photo from Lr Mobile on my phone he uses this intelligent overview of 2 MB right? What did this to my original data and things like that.

    Hi Chrizly,

    If the time that you synchronize the images of the Lr Mobile Lr Office, the original image will remain on your phone, but Lightroom will create smart image previews.

    The data remains the same on your phone.

    Kind regards

  • How to restore the original interface of first Pro CC and drag the video to the timeline?

    I downloaded the trial version doesn't have the video and audio tracks on the mounting Panel. I tried to play to find, but it's what happened instead.

    Print screen.png

    Can I know how to restore the original interface?

    Also, how do I drag videos to the timeline when it doesn't have any audio or video track line that I can work with, unlike the CS6 version I was using?

    Thank you.

    Hi Erica,

    To restore:

    In the menu items, choose window > workspace > reset Workspace

    To add the video to the timeline:

    • Select file > new > sequence and create a sequence. Drag the video to the new sequence.

    or

    • In the project Panel, drag your video to the new article . This will create a sequence that best matches your clips properties.

    Best,

  • Hi, I just upgraded from 6.1 to 6.4 LR LR. When importing new files LR6.4 cannot rename my files with a specific date format (import uses only the original name).

    Hello

    No problem with the LR 6.1, but now (LR6.4), it seems impossible to rename my files with a specific format (yyyy-dd-hhmmss and a suffix) importing memory cards. LR imports only files with names of origin. And I have a lot of files to rename...

    I hope that someone knows what's going on.

    Jean

    Jean,

    We found a similar question which is being implemented. If you shoot images at once in the first and jpg format and then import them using the option of renaming, the question is in place.

    Could you please check if you use the option "make a second copy? If so, please it deselect. It should solve the problem.

    The issue is addressed in Lightroom.

    Thank you

  • Impossible to rename folders on Vista Home Premium 32-bit

    I can create a new folder in Explore, but impossible to rename.  My research indicates this is probably an error in registry, would have been in this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENT
    VERSION\EXPLORER\FOLDER_DESCRIPTIONS.
    When I Open regedit, it seems that this key exists in my registry, however.

    I tried to fix it through all the following options listed in my search:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/949109 
    http://www.Winhelponline.com/blog/unable-to-rename-or-move-folders-in-Windows-Vista/ 
    http://www.WinVistaClub.com/T46.html

    None of these worked, even after disarming system keeps McAfee to ensure that he was not interfering.   Interestingly, I don't get the error "the file does not exist" typical that most relate to this problem.  In addition, I CAN rename new files on an another user account on the same PC, but not in the original administrator account.

    Any ideas what to try next?

    You have found most of the items good for repair this type of problem when it is the problem.  Maybe the problem is not the process of change of name, but with your profile (especially if the process works by using a different profile).

    Your administrator user profile can are damaged.  To fix this use http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.  If that is the only available Administrator Profile (you need to be an administrator to fix this), enable the Hidden Administrator Account (HAA) using http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?&lang=en&cr=US&guid=&sloc=en-us&dg=microsoft.public.windows.vista.administration_accounts_passwords&p=1&tid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055&mid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055.  If you don't remember the password, try nothing because that's probably what you (or seller) did during the installation.  Once that is done, don't forget to disable the HAA to save it in case it is necessary once again and for safety reasons (since people often try to hack into systems using this account).  Do NOT use the HAA as your administrator account because if you lose the only administrator on the system account or it is damaged again, then you're watered.

    Good luck and I hope this helps.
