My 'Temp' folder has more 600 000 files it contains.

I have empty every chance I get, but the rate that it creates these files is ridiculous. For example, at least 100,000 have been a night at 01:43 when I know that the phone was off. I have a Toshiba Satellite running Vista and this is a constant problem. I tried cleaning disc, CCleaner, clean disc of anti-virus program, and even tried to remove manually, which proved to be too much work for my laptop to deal with as it froze. It seems that my only option left is to turn this laptop in a frisbee. Help, please! :(

General the Temp file names are "SBS_VE_ADST_(lots_of_numbers).tmp and _AMBR_ etc.

    If I have more than 10 files on the internal memory, external 8 GB card will appear empty. If I format the internal memory and does not add any files, I see everything on the external card. MSC is set and PC, I see all of each drive.

    Any advice? I had rather not return this if I can make it work.

    Thank you.

    Initially, this was resolved by a reupload 1.02.15A firmware. But the problem comes back.

    I went to the RockBox firmware, and it works as expected. I'll check the next official FW and see if it has not changed.

    For now, I'm happy with RockBox.

  • Why did I not more 74 000 files in more than 4,000 files taking up beyond 1 GB in my Cache folder (I also have a much smaller Cache2 folder)?

    As far as I know, I did nothing to create all these files. They slow down disc scans and as far as I know I need one. I can simply remove all but one, or is there a reason for them being there?

    What of the folder Cache (2)?

    They should be deleted. If Firefox crashes for this session cache files cannot be deleted. Records may not get deleted at all. Certainly to empty your cache files. If you delete while Firefox is running, then you will be able to clear all except those that Firefox is actually using the session.

    After you have emptied your cache of the old files and folders, it would be useful if you have disabled your Internet Explorer cache files also.

    To help reduce the problem, clear your cache files when Firefox ends.

    I can't tell you what creates the tmp files, but here are a few
    General info on the topic: the temp folder has space to work for
    programs. Programs may create temporary files for their own
    temporary use. Each program must delete all of its temporary files when
    It closes, but for various reasons it is not always the case (for
    example, if the program crashes, it only ever to do so). That's why
    It's a good idea to periodically clean the what is left.

  • Windows Server 2008 OS is not acceptable for Officejet Pro 8500 has more

    I am installing an Officejet Pro 8500 has more on a network that contains just a Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit) computer and a bunch of zero clients.  I read the document "installation of the software of the printer on Windows Server 2003 or 2008" including the updated title hope in my heart.  Unfortunately when I followed the instructions to install from a. MSI file, I get an error message saying "this computer's operating system is not supported", as can be seen in

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/oi3ur31frg8dhi3/HP%20error%20via%20MSI.PNG

    I am able to print to this device I have widower of drivers from Microsoft Update, but I want to be able to scan with it.

    I solved this problem by installing the complete package on a Vista laptop then set up a network folder on the server for the scanned images.  I then unplugged the laptop from the LAN and now I can scan using the front panel of the printer/scanner and images appear on the shared folder of Server 2008.

  • Hi, I have a problem with threats in the temp folder

    Hello
    I have a problem... Apparently, about 26 files in the windows/temp folder are infected. All files names begin with game, for example set625D.tmp and my antivirus program wants me to remove (on average). The problem is that I'm not sure if I have to remove, more exactly if my computer works perfectly if I delete them. Should I remove them, or look for an alternative? BTW, I have Vista...

    You can delete all the files in the folder temp without problem, unless
    they are used. If they are in use, Windows won't let you delete
    them.

    However, if they are part of a virus, AVG may be able to remove them.

    Hello

    Thank you for the additional information.

    Yesterday, I decided to register on IT * files .tmp on DVD and I removed them from the TEMP directory. I decided to do it because none of the processes they used at the time of my comment. I compared the the event logs for any new warnings or errors, but mistakes are appearing as before removal. The errors are:
    -The parallel port driver service failed to start due to the following error: the service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices is associated to him.
    -Could not load the plug-in module. (GUID = {56F9312C-C989-4E04-8C23-299DEE3A36F5}) (Error code = 0 x 80042019)

    I haven't checked on the first error, but it appears in the system log because I erased the corrupt system log - also before deleting the files.
    The second is well known 'Vaio Entertainment Database Services' error (in the application log) and everyone invites you to remove this service from startup list. So maybe I'll do it.

    My Vaio has now extra 7.5 GB of free space and has no performance or other problems (so far).

    Today, I tried this (sfc/scannnow) system scan and the log is perfectly clean. Nothing has been repaired.
    Also checkdisk returns nothing abnormal so I think the albums * .tmp not fail at any other SW. The other issue is how they were created, but as my log files have been corrupted (another known problem of vista), I will probably never know the answer.

    If new sth will appear on the subject (e.g. new TOP * .tmp files), I'll write again.

    Thank you once again.

  • More than 25,000 files, a directory, write more simular names unless 'modified' date is different

    Hi all

    I came across an interesting task. I got a directory that keeps documents (word, excel, pdf).

    The problem is that the last owner of the directory would create folders such as the 'year' than to create a separate cover for a "subject" to copy the file in each folder. If a different topic and/or year used the same file, it would copy it into all subdirectories that apply. He would edit each file individually or not at all.

    Over time, it has created more than 25,000 files. So my task is to:

    1. Move all the files in a directory.

      1. Delete all subfolders
    2. Replace the similar files
      1. Keep the files with the same name but different dates of updating the

    There are approximately 15 300 conflicts of files... How to listen to this process instead of just going through the line and click on ' move and replace or ' move, but keep both files ' on all 15 000 files.»

    Is it possible to have the computer overwrite all files that are 1? Named the same 2. Date of update the same, to keep files with 1. Same name 2. Different modification date.

    Example of

    Part 1

    File1.doc "change: 12/06/2013.

    File1.doc "change: 12/06/2013.

    Result: Crush him. File1.doc

    Part 2

    File1.doc "change: 12/06/2013.

    File1.doc ' modification: 02/11/2014.

    Result: Keep each files File1.doc, and file1 (2) .doc

    I think you could do this with a few very carefully created batch or PowerShell traverses the directories, but it is certainly not an easy task.

    I would dump all the files in a single directory, then just run a real program of double killer (I have a good one in my OneDrive here if you want to use it).  Then you will be left with files all really unique, no duplicates of all, actually run the two examples you listed in one fell swoop.
