Masses of jpeg files, unwanted in "recently changed".

file can not find hereMasses

Masses of jpeg files, unwanted in "recently changed".  Impossible to delete, get the message that they are no longer at this location.  Where did they come from?  How can I get rid of them?

Do you mean recent items on the Start Menu, or do you mean C:\Users\\Recent?  Are these these files recognize you or are they all strange to you?  I don't know where they came from-maybe there was a mistake in the Vista program or maybe they came to the temporary internet files or it could be a variety of reasons - it is very difficult to say.  It would be useful to know if you all recognize.

First of all, I would make sure that the original files are all where they are supposed to be and do not have somehow been transferred.

Try using one of the following free products to remove the files.  Unlocker to:http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/). These programs often work when normal functions remove Vista not work correctly.  After back if none of these programs does not work to remove the files either.

I do one and then confirm that it has been also removed from its normal location.  Then try a couple just to be safe.  Once you are sure that the originals are not as well removed, then you can delete everything else.  If the originals ARE deleted, we have a different problem.  Post back and we'll try to solve it.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

  • Recently changed research - lack of elements

    This research has been working well - I use it often to find modified files I need to back up and made sure the indexing options point to all the necessary records.

    But now with some extension - .cap (Capella Notation software) that I started to use the files do not appear. I checked the list of File Types in indexing options (tools of research... Indexing options... Advanced... File types) and the extension (.cap) is checked and it appears with the appropriate icon.

    Also the affected folders are indexed - other files in the same folders are appearing in their correct (by date) position in the research recently changed. The problem file appears in the search for indexed locations, it does not appear in the recently changed.

    Also, the properties of the appearance of the file OK - that of to say that they have the modified Date that appears correctly, and I created a copy of the file in the same folder, then change its extension .doc - makes it unusable, but just to check - and he appeared recently changed!

    It seems therefore that the extension is causing the problem?
    I have rebuilt the index, but this has not fixed the problem.

    Any suggestions much appreciated. Thank you

    It looks like types of unknown recorded files to windows do not appear on the recently changed. Two of my programs ProShow Producer and RoboMaster do not show their files in the recently changed folder that both have "Recent files" on their menus file. I tried to create a file to another MediaAvatar program that can create two files .html and .swf (both animated) types in a project, the two files have been properly saved to the desktop but checked the file change recently showed that the file .html as the .swf file wasn't there.

    The work around I found was to create a link to the file folder registered under favorite links by dragging the folder to the favorite links area the file when the blue text "create link in links" appears under the folder.

    It's something similar on the link below:

  • File "recently changed".

    I have Vista Home Premium and all recently discovered, in my case "Recently changed" under my 'computer', much (800 +) .jpeg and .xml files images I didn't upload or have no idea whence they came. In fact, I don't know yet is what a .xml file. However, it seems these files to download on my computer whenever they want (usually at start-up). Among these files unwanted are files that I use and that you have changed recently, but most are unknown to me. I figured that some virus/malware, but, using AVG Free that I installed, it found nothing. What is happening and how to stop it and remove all those unwanted downloads?

    Try to install Malwarebytes anti-malware , it seems to stop connections to my computer, I use a P2P program download and it constantly throws a ball upward on the lower right corner, indicating correctly blocked potentially malicious Web site: xx.xxx.x.xxx. Weather this fixed your problem or not, it's a good program running on your computer, and you can use it free or pay for a version full way AVG.

  • Error unknown 0x88982F50 when you try to change the properties of a JPEG file in the Windows Photo Gallery

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack1 and use Windows Photo Gallery to managemy photos. I like the fact that I can integrate tags and ratings in JPEG files.

    I just noticed though, that the tag is no longer to be stored in the JPEG file. I know because when I saw the properties of the file tag information I have in the Windows Photo Gallery is not present. If I try to change the properties directly, I get an error message stating:

    An unexpected error prevented the operation. Make a note of this error code, which might be useful if you get additional help to resolve this problem: 0x88982F50 error: No. Error Description available.

    I checked the file isn't read-only etc.

    I searched Microsoft.com for this error and have found no help. I searched the internet and have seen many forums to raise this issue, but I can't find a solution.

    Note that when I try to fix an image in Windows (eye of harvest/red etc.) Photo Gallery, I also get an error that says I can't save the changes.

    For me, it looks like a component is faulty or missing, but how is it resolved?

  • Can I use Paint to change the color of the text in a jpeg file?

    That covers it pretty well.  Also, can I put a background color in without the text being covered?

    Hello

    If the text already exists in the image, then you cannot delete/edit it in paint. Yes, it is possible but requires a little extra work, you can use third-party application to make changes in the jpeg file. I suggest you research on the use of your favorite search engine.

    WARNING OF THIRD PARTY LINK.
    WARNING: Using third party/link 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.
  • How can I delete my folder "recently changed" without deleting all my files?

    Hi I just want to have a clear "recently changed record" so no one can snoop on me? I have curious people around me. Is there a way to clear the record without losing everything? should I highlight all and delete? Thank you.

    I'd say just delete the entire contents of the C:\Users\\searches folder (where the recently modified record is kept). That will NOT delete your files. The above method is better than becaese the list to delete the shortcuts (which has everything in recent xxxxx files) will never updated again.
    Delete the contents of the recently modified files will not remove files that their link.

  • How to change the field artist/creator EXIF JPEG file?

    I need to change the EXIF artist field in the original camera JPEG files.

    With LR I can change the creator metadata field. I can then "Save metadata to file" or "Export" files.

    "Save metadata to file" modifies the IPTC and XMP fields, but still empty EXIF field.

    "Export" fills the EXIF artist field creator - it's good, but re-compress JPEG images - it's bad.

    Is there a way to manage the field EXIF artist without re-compression?

    Thanks, Elen.

    Your thread earlier today deals with the question of the layers, the JPEG file format is not supported. If you want to save the file with layers, save as PSD. To load the referenced site, save the file in JPEG format as well. After you have downloaded, remove the JPEG file if you are short of space.

    Go to Image > mode and make sure the RGB color is checked. When you go to file > save as, in JPEG, the ICC profile is sRGB IE C61966 - 2.1 (on my current test file).

    JPEG file format does not support maintaining the structure of the layer.

    Suggest you save critical files such as JPEG and PSD.
