    What is the problem with your fonts?

    I have very few problems of fonts in my notes...

    I took a this auditor of fonts and I don't know what that is supposed to do, but it takes too much time everything he does, so I just stopped after several minutes while it digested 2 files.   It also seems to be unsupported.

    I compressed to the top of my fonts folder and put it on my SkyDrive, but I don't know too much about the operation of the fonts with XP and think that they must be "installed" by clicking on the file and choose to install the fonts.

    I have NO idea if this zipped upward file will help you or not, but I would be sure to make a copy of what you have before overwriting things.  If things go haywire, I might have to leave town for a few days until things cool off.

    One thing is for sure... we don't know even what it is, or anything on your system.  It is because the MS Answers forum ask all system information when a new question is requested (which is doubly certain).

    I downloaded a copy of my zipped folder fonts on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

    Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need it (fonts.zip).

    When you see the files available for download, you will not see the file extension (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip etc), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

    When you download the file (especially if you use Internet Explorer), when you get a chance to save the file, it cannot save the file with an extension (for example, .exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip) then you will need to manually add the extension appropriate to the file when you download the file before you save it.

    You can download the file without the extension, and then rename the file to add the appropriate extension.

  • I want to print a complete list of the folders and files that are on C:, but do NOT want to use < PrntScrn >. Is there another way? (Windows XP home edition)

    Print out c: folders and files.

    Such a command would be:

    dir d:/press s > %userprofile%\Desktop\directory.txt

    who will place the file on your desktop.

  • Easy transfer Windows spilled all my folders and files in the C: OS drive.

    I don't know if I've done something right or if it is a real problem. I used my wired network and Windows Easy Transfer to transfer files and folders of old readers logics partioned 5 XP to my new family Win 7 Premium 64 bit, also with a hard drive partitioned. Transfer all the folders and files placed in the new Win 7 C: OS drive. What a nightmare! I had to return the computer to factory settings (out of the box) and all over again.

    I should have been smarter. After all, how a stupid machine knowledge where to put each logical drives and folders without receiving instructions. But then it should have been a warning that the machine is not do miracles.

    Caution: do not use Windows Easy Transfer if you have a partitioned hard drive.

  • Is it safe to delete the log file in/private/var/log/vnetlib?

    [Fusion 4.1.2 / Lion 10.7.4]

    My vnetlib log file is greater than 22 MB in size and has > K 250 lines of entries dating back to September 2011. Is it safe to delete this log file? A planning at startup, remove the file and then do a restart immediately after to restart VMWare network components - and we hope to recreate a new empty file. I tried erasing the contents of the file via the Terminal but do not have sufficient permissions, even with sudo - guess it was because the VMWare networking processes running at the time.

    Thank you

    John

    If you do not experience network problems, then it is safe to delete.

    I had no problem to remove in a Terminal (while VMware Fusion is running) by using the following command in (although I would recommend VMware Fusion of closing first and it doesn't have to be done in safe mode).

    sudo rm -f /var/log/vnetlib
    

    Just curious, what the big problem is why you want to delete, 22 MB is not that big a deal.

  • Is it safe to delete the original score after successful cloning?

    I have a Mac mini mid2010. I swapped his optical drive to an SSD. Then I cloned the operating system partition and everything works perfectly. My question is whether it is safe to delete the original "Macintosh HD" that I cloned, or if there is a way to keep its files being accessible if I don't get them mixed up.

    Thank you

    Delete the old folder on the internal drive home page only. I should leave everything alone in case you need to boot from this drive. However, in general, it is safe to reformat the hard drive. But it depends on what you plan to do with it.

  • What happens if I delete the contents of the my SubscriptionPlayCache folder in iTunes?

    Hello world

    I'm on a MacBook Pro (El Capitan 10.11.2, 2.4 GHz/4 GB), with 121 GB of Flash storage and I'm running out of hard drive space.

    I got a new time Capsule recently and more backups were transfer files to this (pictures, videos, etc.), but I just noticed the iTunes cache - specifically "SubscriptionPlayCache" has 9.1 GB of data in it. I regularly listen to music while I work, then, of course, that this has been over time.

    Will be the rumble of coming world down if I delete the contents of this file, leaving the folder itself in place (to begin its inexorable March upward the Hill of filling of storage)?

    Thank you!

    Music files Apple cache: http://dougscripts.com/itunes/2015/09/new-flush-apple-music-cache-files/ - ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.iTunes/SubscriptionPlayCache/ file, which is a bit like a "iTunes Media" folder for music from Apple

    You might find yourself with a bunch of broken links in iTunes for tracks pointing to these files. You could always delete those that many find that painful and unsightly to have them even.

  • Safely delete the contents of the ProgramFiles/Windows/Temp dir? __And I can remove the content of Documents and Settings/User1/Local settings/Temp dir? __Thanks for any advice! __

    Can I safely remove or delete the contents of a 'Temp' directory in Windows?

    -Documents and Settings / User1 / Local settings / Temp

    Yes, you can delete the contents of any temporary directory. You can use disk cleanup or CCleaner . If you use CCleaner, use only the cleaning tools. Let tools registry and other options alone . MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Is it safe to delete the files from the System 32 > DriverStore > Temp folder?

    I was do a cleaning on my system and find files and temporary folders in all directions. I was wondering if it is safe to delete the files from the System 32 > DriverStore > Temp folder.

    Thank you

    Nothing in the Windows or Program Files and files their subfolders should be left alone.  You won't earn a significant amount of disk space, and you may cause to yourself untold trouble sleeping herein.  Use instead the provided Windows Disk Cleanup.  You can get to it by clicking on start-> computer, then click on the C: drive and click Properties.  On the general tab, you will see disk cleanup.  Use it and you will be safe (and not sorry).  Everything you personally placed on the computer can always be removed of course as long as you do not try to remove installed manually the software (use the programs and features in the control panel for this).

    I hope this helps.  Good luck.
