How can I find the hard drive on my old s (2007) PKU Dell so I can trash (for security reasons) until I put it the dumpster garbage? THX for your answer.

My old computer crashed. I took the hard drive to specialist to see if it could be salvaged, but it may not. Now I have a new computer and run Firefox. is there a way to retrieve my Firefox bookmarks and files on my new computer via the Firefox Web site?
No sorry. If Mozilla saved automatically each users personal data to their website, this would be an extreme violation of the safety of users.
There is the Firefox Sync - what is Firefox Sync - optional service which must be put in place before personal data is lost.

Location of tabs open on the hard drive
Hello, my laptop died today, but I got the files from the hard drive. I have several tabs open in firefox before death.
Is it possible to get the URLS of tabs open known or that they are lost forever?
those who might still be available on your backup hard drive in the firefox profile folder in a file called sessionstore.js (it may be also as sessionstore.bak or sessionstore-1/2/3/...js - pick Set one that is more up-to-date and rename sessionstore.js in case copy which backups). Copy the sessionstore-js file (or the renamed version) to your profile folder current while firefox is closed and see if the session is get restored automatically or you can try to restore in the history menu.

I got this new computer on Monday. The reason why I bought a new was that I suspected that my old Toshiba got compromised. I even bought a new Linksys router that was AC 1900. My new HP computer has McAfee and uses MicrosoftEdge browser. There are several interesting questions, I hope that experts from HP can answer for me.
1. why my old Toshiba drive appears on the hard drives in the Device Manager?
2. Why are there readers D two on disk management? Can't update my Windows 10. I bought a new computer.
3. why hiberfil.sys and pagefile.sys, swapfile.sys, BOOTNXT appear on my drive C Windows?
The above synptoms are normal? I need to do something about these questions or just leave them along? I have a microsoft all in one account.
Thanks for the reply.
Hello
I don't see your screen but:
1. new machine uses Toshiba HDD, not your old machine of Toshiba. HP uses HARD disks with many suppliers, including Toshiba.
2. Yes, it is normal. One with the file system is the real, without file system is a shadow one.
3. normally, they are hidden system files, you can hide them if you wish.
Kind regards.

Where Outbox.dbx is located on the hard drive
Have a damaged Outbox (Microsoft Outlook running on the Vista OS) folder. Microsoft told to search the hard drive for Outbox.dbx and delete it, and then restart Outlook will automatically create a new Outbox folder.
I tried several ways and places that you do not find the extension of networks on the hard drive. Anyone know where this folder is located. I'm not a problem solver sophisticated, so please give me as much of the detailed information that you can. Thank you.
Outlook uses PST files. Outlook Express uses the DBX files. This is the way to correct a corrupt OE shipping box, but I don't know about an Outbox of Outlook. I suggest that you ask the experts Forum Outlook here.

I can't activate my real Vista on 'New' material by using the hard drive of my old hardware
OK, I got a laptop comes pre-loaded with windows Vista and it has got water damage and shorted, the hard drive however is in good working condition. I bought a laptop replacement because I didn't want to be on another computer that someone else would break anyway.
so I bought this used the laptop from a friend that he would use to intnet and games, she had similar specs as my old laptop except the proccessor was different but similar speed and what not. what I want to do is to install the hard drive from my old with Vista genuine in this 'new' computer that has a hard drive in a way smaller and is loaded with XP.
compatible sound and I have already, but it asks me for my product key that I have but it says its wrong (I guess as its headquarters in the old hardware) so is there a way to unregister the old hardware or upgrade my hardware information in order to use my old hard drive and keep my status as a true?
not only is a HDD larger but its quicker and there all my files ive been without for more than a year now and frankly I need it back so bad at this point
Thank you thank you
Sorry, but versions OEM of Windows Vista cannot be transferred to another computer. The license is permanently tied to the original computer, it has been installed and activated on. Carey Frisch

· My old Win XP computer died - it is completely unusable. I bought a new PC with Win 7 Pro and 1 TB. I still have the old HARD DRIVE (250 GB) which I have attached on the new computer using an external enclosure supports SATA drives. The external hard drive is connected to the computer in USB 3.0. I checked that the new computer can see the external hard drive. (I also used for backups by changing the hard drive with a 2 TB drive 'mass storage' - that works.)
I searched the internet for possible solutions and found no help. If the transfer of files from Microsoft would change the disc to analyze, it would be simple. But if I select the OLD computer it scans the disk I'm on (new) - automatically.
Is there anyone who has had the same problem? He must be because computers die all the time and people buy new computers - who then, somehow, they get the former transferred files. I could do it manually, but that wouldn't change the settings. Last resort would be to buy an old computer XP (SATA), replace the drive. Transfer the files, and then sell this computer.
You may be able to recover your data files, but I hope that you will set up your new system to automatically backup a second internal hard drive or an external USB hard drive.
This suggestion may not work, but it's worth a try. Buy an external USB drive enclosure. They come in two sizes 2.5 "for the portable computer drives and 3.5" for desktop disks. You can purchase adapters for 3.5 "envelopes so that they can also be used with a portable player. Place the hard drive in the enclosure and connect to a USB port of another computer. Several hard disks are more able to start, but the contents of the disc can still be accessed, read and copied from the disk because you do not use the operating system on a failed disk.
Here is an example of the type of device, I suggest:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=external+hardrive+enclosure&tag=googhydr-21&index=aps&hvadid=14388537836&hvpos=1t1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=556960941559985931&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&ref=pd_sl_32uorbwbuk_bYou need only to the speaker, that you see are not necessarily more expensive. Thereafter, you can put an old hard drive usable, an abandoned because you need a larger drive internal, in the enclosure and use it as additional external storage.

Location of the HARD drive on satellite A30
Can someone tell me please how to access the HARD drive on a laptop satellite A30? I searched everywhere and can not work on how to remove the HARD drive.
Hi Mitch,
The hard drive on your A30 is in the optical drive. Turn your laptop over and remove the screw F5. This will allow the scanner to be slid toward the front of the laptop and you will then be able to see the hard disk set with four cross-head'screws (2 on each side). Remove the four screws and push the hard drive toward the front of the laptop to disconnect the connection to the motherboard.
Kind regards
