Photos disappeared from: F to: G drive, that I can't find or open!

To save all my pictures on an external: F drive as my: C drive is nearly full. A few days ago, one of my whole photo folders disappeared from this: drive F (F:\pictures\2010-2011).  When I search my computer for the name of the folder all the individual photos in a list now appear in what is called a G: drive.  But when I try to access one of these photos I get this message:

Done G:\pictures\2010-2011 refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer or on a network. Check that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network and try again. If it cannot always be located, the information may have been moved to another location

I am connected to the Internet, is not any other external disk and the photos do not appear to be anywhere on my: C drive.   It's two years of valuable missing photos :-(   Anyone know what I did wrong?

TECHNICAL DATA:

Dell Inspiron M1330

Vista Home

Just to clarify - my drive WD Passport external hard is my: disc F where are all my photos. It works great I see and hear.

My missing picture file before in: drive F but it is now in what is called: G drive... a player I never heard or seen before!

I went to DISK MANAGEMENT, following the instructions and I see 3 discs marked all "healthy": C: D and: F

There are neve has been another stick of memory or hard drive attached to this computer, which could thus: G drive be?

Thank you very much for trying to help, any other ideas?

Ignore all cela "G:".

If you open "F:", you see nothing?  You can't have the Explorer?

If you right-click on the 'F:', and then select Properties - space free/used how?

  • Cannot access the files from the internal hard drive that has been converted to drive external hard after the motherboard is dead

    I can't access the files from an internal hard drive that has been converted to drive external hard after the motherboard is dead. I think that my files are still there, as shown in the volume of the player volume ~ 500 gb which is almost completely full. But I can't access most files, including documents and settings. When I took 'ownership' of the folder, I could open the TI but then it showed everything that was in my documents and settings on the computer file I used to open it, not the documents of the car.

    Uhm... I think the issue here is a misunderstanding of what you watch.

    If you want to access your files from the old hard drive - you need to look in the right place.  If the old system was "Windows 7", "Documents and Settings" is the * wrong * place to look and "Users" would be the place to go.

    You * will * take ownership and change permissions on ALL (you want to propagate to all subfolders/files when do - to save time) in order to get them properly.

    New-->: Windows Vista/7 would have your files located in the directory 'Users' of the root of the drive - and then under your username.

    • \USERS\\Desktop\
    • \USERS\\Downloads\
    • \USERS\\Favorites\
    • \USERS\\Documents\
    • \USERS\\Music\
    • \USERS\\Pictures\
    • \USERS\\Videos\

    ... etc...

    Documents and settings to WIndows Vista/Windows 7 is a symbolic link and would lead to what you see if you tried to use it.

  • Point of mystery of material; an HP product. that I can't find a support.

    Hello

    I have a video card that I can't find except in passing mentions, with further references obscure motherboard chipsets. Some web sites seem to contradict what type of map this thing really is, and I have no way to say for sure at this point.

    From what I can tell, this is a 256 MB PCIe 1.0 'GeForce 9300GE', HP P/N: 466851-001; Blue PCB color, active cooling fan and heatsink combo, low-profile-ish heat, HDMI and 'LCD' (this is what is engraved on the metal on the side stand side of the orifice) ports available.

    This thing is no longer supported by HP? Can I somehow verify the characteristics of the map, I've since lost the documentation on this?

    And Yes, this is an older video card, but happens in an older system, and it is a notch above the car video that currently has in any case. It is a temporary side-grade until I win the lottery, what can I say?

    Thank you.

    Download and run JDiskReport.

    There are a number of things you can do to- temporarily - free up disk space.  The only real solution, however, is to get a larger hard drive.

    • You can run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr > OK)
    • You can reduce the size allocated for the restoration of the system to about 1 GB (right click on desktop > properties > system restore > settings)
    • You can disable hibernation (if you don't use it) (right click on an empty spot on the desktop > properties > screen saver > power > Hibernate)
    • You can disable the indexing of the drive, which will also speed up your computer a bit (http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp)
    • You can reduce the size of your Internet browser cache (depending on the browser that you use)
    • You can remove most of the $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx files $ following the directions here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm (read the warnings in the gray box first)

    But none of these answers you will earn really large amounts of space for very long.  The term solution time is a bigger hard drive.

    In the meantime, download and run JDiskReport, that will show you graphically what files take up more space and seem to so indicate what files to delete or uninstall applications.

  • How do I remove, rename, or move files or folders in another program, that I can't find?

    Im running Windows 7 Ultimate edition. What should I do to solve this problem: too often, when I try to delete, rename or move a file/s or folder/s so on my desktop, documents, library, or anywhere with a typical, it should create a custom folder, I get an error message telling me that I can not remove this file or folder because it is open in another program. It drives me crazy because I don't know what the heck, or when the devil this folder doesn't exist anywhere else on my laptop. I tried to look for programs and files to determine if there are duplicate areas where the file can share with another path, but nothing. I also looked at the properties of the file/folder, but it does show me nothing relevant, even if I uncheck the read-only box. I am the only user/administrator of my laptop. I created a profile of the privileged administrator I use only, nothing else. I run a home network with 5 computers and treat various problems in the past, but this problem started recently, after I upgraded my network of Windstream modem 4220 + linksys wrt600n to Windstream wireless all-in-one router. The new router was a piece of * so I've not unhooked it and reiinstalled my original Windstream modem 4220 + linksys wrt600n devices. I had a few problems, but everything is now back to how it was. I can only think that this may have something to do with the share on the network? Correct me if I'm wrong (please), but there seems to be too many titles listed under users? It's whats listed under users: administrator, Classic .NET AppPool, default, default AppPool, (my username) and Public. In any case, please help % @#! I think I may be fubar had my network configuration after uninstallation and reinstallation of the windstream (local phone/internet provider) facilities and added a printer wireless capability (which does not). and may have caused the problem that I can't delete, rename or move files or folders in another program, that I can't find? If yes or else, HELP!

    When you have the problem that happens, open the Task Manager.
    Then, you can view the processes that are open and see if the program or file is open by another process. If so, then select end task.
    Then return to Windows Explorer and see if you can remove the file now.

    You may also be able to delete the file in Mode without failure.
    To access Safe Mode:
    (a) restart your computer and start pressing F8 on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured to start to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when the Boot Menu appears.
    (b) select an option when the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, and press ENTER.
    (c) when the boot menu appears again, and the words "Safe Mode" appear in blue at the bottom, select the installation that you want to start, and then press ENTER.

    If you run a Web server, you can see the AppPool under users.

    An application pool is a group of one or more URLS served by a worker process or a set of worker processes. Application pools define limits for the applications they contain, which means that all the applications that are running outside of a given application pool does not affect applications in the application pool.

    You may not install or use programs in the windows.old folder

    MS Office is not provided with any version of win, although the origonal PC manufacturer may have included a trial version.

    You must install the origonal program installation media programs and activate with this key programs.

    Probably at some stage, you bought a version of MS Office and that is the case you would have the Office key

    Navigate the folder windows.old to Programs\MS Office, find winword.exe, and then check the properties/details, what is the product name & Version of the file?
