Problems to move and rename directories with Windows 7

I'm having intermittent problems, move, and rename directories on a network in Windows 7.

It seems to be related to indexing and the thumbs.db which is planted in each directory. Sometimes after I've removed the thumb, I can rename or move the directory, but sometimes not.
A way to solve this annoying problem?

Hi Brett!

Read here how to disable the thumbs.db: http://www.itguyfixit.com/2009/07/removingdisable-thumbsdb-windows-xp.html

(Ignore the link title: also works for Win 7)

See you soon

  • Problem with playing video games, DVD and CD audio with windows Vista.

    I had a problem to read these types of discs with my hard drive. It does not recognize that there is a disc at all. This ONLY happens with new discs I get, for example by trying to install a new video game or download a new album that I just got. If I want to play a previously installed game I put game disk in and it works perfectly fine. This only happens with new games that I have not yet installed. E.g. I want to play starcraft, previously installed. I put the cd in starcraft and the game appears as usual. But if I want to install starcraft II nothing happens when I put StarCraft II in the disk drive, even if I go to my computer and double click on your drive, it just opens the CD door and asks to put a disc in when we're already here.

    I tried MR. Fix and it recognizes that there is a problem but is unable to repair. I tried to uninstall the disk driver and not the fixed not restart, but who either.

    Hello

    You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burn
    and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

    -----------------------------------

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    The issue is limited to any particular Web site?

    This problem can occur because of network settings.
