• files and folders: How can I load all my files and folders to my new account of my external hard drive?

  Who can help, I just put a new account on my computer and deleted the old account. I backed up the old files on my external hard drive. I want to know is how can I load all my files and folders to my new account of my external hard drive? I thank you for your time and knowledge have a very nice evening, Shawn

  Because it's a new account (even if with the same name), the restore procedure is unable to put files and folders in the same place, they came (because this place technically no longer - if yes, then the process is done and the transfer is complete). It can create a set of separate files (maybe even under a new user name, if it has been stored in this way).  If so, all you need to do is copy the data as you would copy any other files and folders (not the main files of the user profile themselves but the data in them) on the new files in your user account and who will take care of the transfer. Here is more information about the restore procedure which may help you in the process.

  Here is an article on the restore procedure:http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

  This is a GREAT article on the backup and restore processes in Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx , but he won't go into detail about the restoration process - considering almost as easy, of course.  But it teaches you a lot about what is possible and how to do it.  It also focuses primarily on the full backup process, but he did mention the full backup and restore process as well.

  Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work):http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

  Back up and restore: frequently asked questions
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/back-up-and-restore-frequently-asked-questions

  I also found the following (but don't know if it of true or not):

  1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

  2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

  3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

  4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

  5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

  6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

  7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

  8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

  9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that thebackup location is not available " ")

  10. and you press "next".

  11 guess what... no error!

  12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

  13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

  14. so that the next time see a mistake, try to continue with him... ;)

  I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Uninstall will remove all new files and folders.

  If the user decides to uninstall my Air application, it does not remove folders created with files in AppData. Another problem is that if the application creates new files in the folder Program Files/AirAppFolder, then uninstall the app are not deleted these files.

  How to solve these problems, help please?

  Hello

  AIR should not create additional files in your folder program files, it's something you're doing programmatically?  If so, you can consider using File.applicationStorageDirectory instead due to permission issues, you will have on the newer operating systems.

  As for uninstalling all files (even), this is something you can consider using a native installer to take care.  Installer AIR not being aware of these data, it won't know of to remove on uninstall.  Instead, you'll want to create a custom function in a native installer that removes these files/folders and sub launches AIR installation/uninstallation.

  Thank you

• For CS6, is there an easier way to redirect all my files and folders for all programs?

  Hey people adobe, Im wondering, I know you can configure each preference individually, but I want to redirect all caught space, storage of brushes and etc for all my programs in an another disc as volume change c / e /. Is there a way to do this with a program to make it easier? I don't want to accidentally delete files that are not all adobe programs.

  The reason is I don't want anything else then store programs on the SSD, and theoretically, I want the other disk, so it can run faster.

  There is no global option for this.

• I have a problem with all the files and folders on the computer appearing as 'read only '.

  Original title: scourge, each folder and file on each disc are read only and I can't change an any of them

• All files and folders show hidden after virus corrupted hard drive XP

  I recently got a virus on my laptop which made all the files and folders hidden and says that my hard drive is damaged. I managed to get rid of the virus, but all my files are always hidden. I went to my computer and made sure all the hidden files are visible. This fixed the problem a bit. My main problem now is that all my files and folders are slightly transparent. It's a more of a nuisance than a real problem. I downloaded a program that would allow me to change each file in groups, but it would take an extremely long time to go by a record throughout my entire computer. I was wondering if there is any means possible to put all my files and folders hidden not Hidden to get rid of their transparency.

  Thanks for any help you can give.

  Hello

  What was the name of the program that you have installed?

  Log on as an ADMINISTRATOR - check the C:\Users\your old username to see if the files are still there.
  (or any drive records were on for example D :)

  Try these to erase corruption in the case where it plays a role.

  2. start - type in the search - box COMMAND find top - RIGHT CLICK – RUN AS ADMIN

  then go back and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times. Do the
  same for other accounts that may be difficult. Then if necessary you can also reset your password
  in the accounts. Do not forget to leave your Admin account and the other to the desired level.

  Make another Admin account with your password and use it to fix the others if necessary. (just for
  repair, don't use regular account, not a safety valve) always keep a spare ADMIN account.

• Windows XP can't see shared files and folders on the system Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

  I have a wireless home network. When I got Windows 7 Home premium 32-bit on my desk - my XP laptop was able to share files and folders.

  Today, I upgraded my computer to Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
  Now - my Windows 7 Desktop can access files on my XP laptop - BUT - I was no longer able to access to any shared files and folders on the Windows 7 desktop. I checked that matches the name of working group. And on the XP - when I go to the Add Assistant preferred network and make a Browse.When I select Microsoft Windows network and task force - I see my office listed. But when I try to select - the OK button remains grayed out.
  I would appreciate your help on this.

  Thanks for your help - but I just found out the problem. In the advanced sharing settings, I forgot to select Enable turn off password protected sharing. The second I chose no-all the files and folders that I set to share on the Windows 7 system became available.

  Thanks for your help, anyway.

• Deletion of files and folders in folder

  Can I remove all the files and folders in %Temp% + C:\Windows\Temp?

  In the past, someone in my mobile service provider broadband used remote control to remove all the temporary files for me as list above.  After that, I also made myself.  However, I still want to get some assurance that it is OK to do.

  One of the reasons is that disk cleanup does remove all the files and folders in these places... so I think that it is better to ask before I do it again.

  Advice, please?

  If the file is used as intended then yes it can be emptied if necessary

  Unfortunately, that's a big IF. Used properly included programs clean their installation files extracted temporarily once the installation is complete. The fact that the record needs compensation means they do not as it should. Because this includes many 3rd party software developers outside Microsoft's control, you can not categorically say that you never have problems.

  Personally, I've always never had problems. If you can't move the files to another temporary folder (son of Temp) and check for problems before deleting large total

• recover files and folders lost

  I have windows XP Home Edition and I caught a virus and could not open all programs including restoration. I had to reinstall XP but I lost everthing I got over it, incluing pictures and other documents that I needed. Is it possible to recover these files and folders?

  When you reinstalled, a different account name has been used?

  If so, some of your previous things may be recoverable without resorting to third-party software.

  Check "C:\Documents and Settings\nom_utilisateur", where username is the name of the previous account.

  Down there, you will find folders such as office, favorite etc.. In them, you'll find previous data.

  Go to "C:\Documents and Settings\NEWUSERNAME', where NOUVEAUNOMUTILISATEUR is the name of current account. Move/copy data in the records corresponding to those at the top.

  NOTE: do not move/copy anything in the 'WINDOWS' folder or ntuser.

  Depending on your situation and the environment, you may need to take ownership of the files.

  Help!  How can I recover all my files that I lost?  I was answering an e-mail message when I heard a couple of clicks then my computer off.

  I thought that my computer was destroyed.  Nothing I tried would bring it to the top, so I decided to use the system recovery disc that

  came with my computer.  I've also downloaded all the drivers for the application.  My computer is back on, but I lost everything.

  It's like putting into service with a new computer.  I had a lot of important information in the files that I lost.  I've tried everything I know to do

  without success.  Is it still possible to recover these lost files?  Thank you very much for your help!
