Opening a folder on the network brings the PC almost complete stop!

Hello

I work in a small office with a computer acting as a server with three other connected PCs.  For some reason, whenever the boss turns on the network drive and open a specific folder, his pc is incredibly slow.  The other two PCs can open that folder and continue to navigate without any problems.  We performed a virus on the file scan and there is no virus top.  It must restart your pc so that it runs again at an acceptable speed.  We also tried to defrag his pc, but nothing works.  Help, please!

If the record contains a lot of computer items the boss can have too little memory available for the full list. Try to set his Windows Exporer for display only details or list view instead of the icons or thumbnails.

Check the memory in this way:

Right-click on an empty area of the taskbar and click Task Manager, and then click the performance tab. You will see (in XP) the total physical memory available physical memory settings and system Cache. Also, a section of Charge dedicated with parameters commit total load, committing a billing limit and the maximum Commit Charge.

My pc is slow, because my total physical memory is 1 048 048 (1 GB - GB) and my Total commit Charge is 1 282 820 (1.2 GB) so my Total commit Charge is greater than the total physical memory. Total commit Charge is the total memory used by programs. Until the system done - well to avoid the errors blue screen or out of memory or just a really bad day system takes a bit of the memory being used for other programs that are running but not active and swaps this info memory at a predetermined hard disk location. This frees up physical ram for programs that are actively used. The Act of Exchange on disk this memory takes 100 to 1,000 times as long to access which exchanged information of physical ram memory if your computer slows down considerably the. Your options here are to close programs or add ram if possible. I cannot - old computer and cannot be updated.

So the simple solution is to add more memory to the computer if possible. Check out Crucial.com for a program that will determine the current memory and upgrade options possible. It will download a control through the browser to determine. The site should have good exchange memory mode. You may need to replace 512 MB for 1 GB modules, because the pc has only so many slots to put memory in. ATTENTION always leave the computer plugged in and turned OFF and touch a metal box on the pc before handling the memory chips. If you move always unload your static electricity in this way.

  • Open a folder in the Finder?

    Hello

    I had the script below in a .jsx file, it was located in the "Adobe Photoshop CC 2015/settings presets/Scripts" and it worked perfectly.

    Now for some unknown reason - it won't open the file hardcoded in the finder

    If something has changed in a previous update, which makes this useless script?

    Any ideas how I now just open a folder in the finder, directly from a script?

    Thank you in advance.

  • I am a novice on computers. When I click to open a folder, how do I open this folder so the messages can be moved to it?

    What can I say? I click on 'folder '. The folder appears in my list of files - but

    Don't know what files you're talking about. The normal folders that appear in the window of Thunderbird Folders pane do not require opening and the drag and drop or pass to the method is the way it works.

  • I am trying to open my folder on the network.

    But I get this.

    You must have missed certain permissions.  On the computer KRYCH, right click on the folder and choose Properties.  Then go to the Security tab and check that it is allowed for all.  Also check the tab of sharing for the share permissions, which are similar but distinct.

  • whenever I right click on the folder from the library, windows Explorer stops

    I got malfunction lately where almost every time I did a right click on a folder in Windows Explorer, Windows Explorer stops and restarts.  Even the taskbar shuts off and needs to restart.

    My computer has also been "stuttering" a lot lately, where when I start a program window may flash on and out once before, is really happening, or when the computer has been asleep for a while and it is restarted and all the programs I use, the window starts to blink; He will disappear for a few seconds and then reappear.  Usually only once.

    I also note that my measure of system reliability monitor took a dive from an average of a 6 fight at an average of 2 a couple of days.  It seems that an attempt was made to update my adobe reader software and this attempt failed and he was about 2, and I had this problem since.

    I ran the troubleshooting, maintenance of the system and 'check solutions', from the center of the Action, without significant results.

    I see to this entry, my Player Adobe says there is no update available.

    Enjoy what you can suggest,

    RichardLVNB

    I would point out, this problem is solved for me, and I forgot what I did, if anything.  I think I'm doing nothing in particular; I think it is just resolved with reboot and repeated use.

    I actually clean out some elements of the configuration of my departure, as mentioned above.

    My system reliability is up around four, now.

    Thank you!

  • My downloads via Firefox did in fact download - "Open" and "Open containing folder" and grayed out when I right click on downloads in the downloads menu

    I had this problem for quite a while. Downloads Download not really. Nothing comes in my download folder (and I checked where they are supposed to be stored, I'm checking the right place). In my downloads through the client Firefox popup if I click on any download, 'Open' and 'Open containing folder' is greyed out. I tried using 18 Firefox and the current client every night and reinstalled several times.

    What security (firewall, antivirus) software do you have?

    So "open" and "Open containing folder" in the menu contextual in the window Download Manager are grayed out then it means that the file is no longer in the original download location and they have been removed by anti-virus software or cleaning.

    It is possible that anti-virus software is corrupt downloaded files or otherwise interferes with the download of files.

    Try disabling analysis in real time (live) files in your software anti-virus temporarily to see if that makes working download.

  • Changed the name of a bookmark in a folder, now when I try to open the file, it tries to open every bookmark in the file.

    I have a folder of bookmarks in the toolbar. I changed the name of one of the bookmarks in that folder. The next time I tried to open the file, I had (and continue to receive) a message saying that I'm about to open 47 tabs, and this can slow down the firefox. I have only to open the file, not each bookmark in it and does not know how to get it by allowing me to do.

    That only happens if you click on this button to folder in the bookmarks toolbar, or you cannot open this folder in the sidebar (Ctrl + B) or the bookmarks menu as well?

  • How can I change the folder under Folders options browse to open each folder in its own window?

    No matter how many times I select "Open each folder in the same window", the files still open in a separate window. So I then several windows open in order to view the other subfolders. Also when I select "File Types" tab and I see that the extension of the file types: (folder) and (folder), they both show (none), which I guess is OK.  So when I click on the "Advanced" tab area 'Actions' watch [find] and [open] with Open being the DEFAULT action. But for Edit or delete buttons are greyed out! So anything that can be changed is the default action is open or find it.

    I just want to be able to open and view the folders in the same window! Do you think I have to reinstall XP Home Edition, running around SP3?
