management of files of Windows 98

In windows 98, I open a file with a softwate, but the file is important which must remain unmodified. How can I return to back mode where file shows the status "opens with" only and does not open with other software?

Thanks for the reply

Do you mean that you have changed the 'Association' file for the extension?

Which means, for example, if you had a file named:
EditMe.bat
It would have normally run.  However, if you change the file association so that it now opens with Notepad, when you double-click it, is no longer run/run - but rather open with Notepad.

If Yes...

  • No idea how I can follow all currently open files (or windows) to a file text or other sort of newspaper? Something similar to the Applications tab in the Manager of tasks, but with a path

    I am interested in creating a batch file or executable that will keep track of all of the currently open windows (files and applications)

    so that when Windows restarts I can more easily return to what I was doing before.
    This can be done either by connecting each operation on the file - open and remove items in the list when an item (file or window) is closed (logging only at this time here)
    , or by checking every 5-10 seconds that windows and files are currently open.
    I tried using TaskList, and OpenFiles to it but cannot do things, plus those also do not provide a path to open files - I want to keep the paths so that the items can be recovered (reopening) with a single click.   Any ideas how to do this?   I use Windows 7 Professional.
    My idea is to have the possibility to go back to all that I was working on, without having to memorize the list...  It is very useful for people who keep a lot of files and windows open most of the time, especially if for some reason any Windows crashes or stops the case (e.g. restart after an update...).    MS Office products can do it (by saving temporary files and allows you to recover if the program was not closed properly), a Web browser can do (keeping a story and using the session management)-why Windows can't do
    ?
    In addition, if there is such list of open windows and files then it might be possible to keep also some history and ' files/windows' recently closed, similar to how Google Chrome can show recently closed tab.
    The application that I'm developing (for my own personal use, although I would offer it to someone else) will be:
    -keep a history and a current list of open files/windows, including a path for each file opened.
    -Files/windows closed are removed from the list "now open" and moved to the list of "recently closed", which has a maximum length.
    -file/window close operations should be associated with the user control. Otherwise, opens the files that are closed
    by Windows when the judgment is no longer will be identified as open.
    -an option would be to ensure, somehow, that this request is always closed during a regular shutdown process first.
    -Another option is to simply assume that there is no problem, if Windows broke down, and that the user is reminded to close the application before you stop.
    -Another option is to have the traceable list, a user can go back a few steps up a point until Windows began to close.
    -Another option is to have the "last sitting" identified as, for example 2 minutes before closing, while keeping a list of items opened after that date.
    -list "recently closed" items that are too old (have been pushed to the bottom of the list and beyond of the length limit are moved to history.
    -l' history can be defined for a limited time or can be cleaned manually or automatically (periodically), or we can set a limit on the length for the history list.
    * the application/batch/executable is located in the Windows startup folder and it:
    -is launched at Windows startup
    -after start (automatically or manually) will display a dialog box containing a list of the items that were open before windows stop - see Creating session above.
    -user can deselect items in the list if he or she does not want to open them. "Uncheck the items of list moves to the ' recently closed" list or history.
    -by identifying which items are not kept, or simply to keep everything, the user clicks on a single button and the application opens to all items that are always enabled.  To avoid slowing down the system, an option is available to open files, in which case a flow can be set.  Defining a priority list, it is also an idea.
    If you think you have a good idea for this or want to work on it with me, please contact me at * address email is removed from the privacy *.
    If you are able to do it yourself, let me know.

    It all sounds very complicated for me, I wish you well in your efforts.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)

    Hi Eddiestevenson,

    Thank you to contact the community Microsoft and we will be happy to help you with your concern.

    You cannot accomplish this by changing the settings in Windows Explorer as the changes in the Windows Explorer view settings are global.

    However, there will be programs of management of third-party files that you could search online and try to use the computer.

    Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    Hi Dave,.

    I have good news for you:

    There are two ways to do what you want:

    The first is the simplest and is already in Windows 7 (and Vista by the way):

    1. highlight one or more files that you want to know the way in Explorer.
    2. press and hold the SHIFT keyand right-click on one of the highlighted files.
    3. when the popup menu appears, click the entry in the path of the copy which appeared as if by magic, because you're now the SHIFT key.

    A slightly better method, IMO, but it takes a little extra work is to add an extension to the send menu to allow you to right-click on one or more files and choose send to-> Clipboard (as name).  This somehow me seems more practical, because I'm used to the way in which the rear PowerToys when.  Such an extension, which also adds a nice Panel to help you manage the menu send to, is a neat package small freeware called send to toys, by Gabriele Ponti, which can be downloaded here: http://www.gabrieleponti.com/software/index.html#sendtotoys

    A nice feature of the program send to toys, is that you can even have it put quotes around any path to file that contains white space.  Practice indeed!

    I hope this helps!

    Let me clarify a few things quickly.

    'Computer' is really just a way to see all top level in one place, which is your access to the physical storage devices, IE the hard drives, CDs, flash drives, etc. (who receive a letter, that is to say C is your primary drive which includes your OS, E is an external hard drive, F corresponds to the DVD player) K is a player flash etc.). These devices are your higher real level.

    On the next level, all but C (the disk containing the operating system) is pretty much defined by someone ' u as the user put into it, apart from all the files in the device really should run, that in general, you won't see, and whatever it is pre-installed, which usually take.

    The second level to the C drive, however, is a little different. While you can add your own folders generally however you want to, by default, it includes a number of files that manage operations for your OS and your manufacturer, performance logs, fonts, etc. and the file you are looking for specifically, users. The latter contains folders for each "user" of your machine (user accounts, files accessible to the public, in addition to the files for some programs that run out of any user account, not your system). In this case, you must, in addition to your own files and folders, you decide to put there, a number of files 'default', like Documents, desktop, Favorites, etc. These are paths to commonly used files, and some have uses within your system (IE desktop contains your desktop, Favorites contains your Favorites from Internet Explorer, etc.).

    To my knowledge, Windows manages the movement of these types of cases, but I have not dealt with it before, I let someone else to answer if it's ok to do, and what would be the possible consequences.
