Redirection of folder in windows 7

• Setup removes the junction point NTFS redirect the folder system "\Windows\Installer" on another disk.

  On a computer running Windows XP Professional SP3, I redirected the "\Windows\Installer" system folder, with a junction to a record point in a tree of directories to a different drive.  The operation was conducted and verified using "junction v1.06 - creator of junction point analysis viewer and Windows' published in 2010 by Mark Russinovich. I moved all the files and subdirectories contained in the original "\Windows\Installer' in the target directory (the these files had been previously copied to a temporary directory and after the move, I checked that they were visible in the folder '\Windows\Installer' open the symbolic link with the Explorer).
  Then I launched a system patch, and I discovered that the installation of the update of the software deleted program point junction that I created, deleted all the cache contained in the directory with the name of substitute target different files and recreated the "\Windows\Installer" folder in the original disc.
  I tested this behaviour a couple of times, installing various software and updates, so I assume that it does not depend on the software that is installed but the installation program itself, which cannot handle a point of junction of the folder "install".
  No warning is given before deleting the junction point and all of its contents.  With a similar procedure, I made two points of junction for '\Windows\Downloaded facilities' and '\Windows\Microsoft.NET' and they have exploited properly.
  Out of understanding points do not work on startup, so it is impossible to redirect for example. :

  • \Windows
  • \Windows\System32
  • \Windows\Config

  "\Windows\Installer" isn't one of those cases, and it is not used at startup.

  Is it possible to use a junction point to redirect the \Windows\Installer on another disk/partition folder, or Setup will always delete all the files that have been targeted in the naming of replacement?

• Folder of Windows/Install Clean or update install Cleanup Utility

  I am running Windows XP Home Edition and my folder C:/Windows/Installer is 21 GB.  I googled how to clean safely this folder but all answers point to Installer Cleanup Utility.  I found this note on the site which provided the program download "Windows Installer Cleanup (MSICUU2.exe) utility that was previously referred to as in this article resolved a few installation problems but sometimes cause problems with other programs or components installed on the computer. For this reason, the tool has been removed from the Microsoft Download Center. "Is there a solution to update?

  Microsoft has stopped supporting Windows Installer Cleanup utility and removed from its server to download because, according to Microsoft "while the utility Windows Installer Cleanup fixed some installation issues, it sometimes damaged other components installed on the computer."

  I didn't know all the information about the "other components" were damaged or under what circumstances, but I guess someone, something had some time, fool you.

  However, you can still get the Installer Cleanup utility, including the utility msizap.exe (which is packed with the Installer Cleanup utility but is not the same thing), http://majorgeeks.com/Windows_Installer_CleanUp_Utility_d4459.html

  If you want to be ultra careful, get you the imagery of disk or disk cloning software to backup (which is A good thing to have in any case) and create a complete backup of the drive before using the program installation Cleanup Utility or msizap.  In this way, if anything goes wrong in fact, you can restore your system from backup.

• How to disable the "Fonts" folder in Windows Explorer?

  Hi all

  I have a problem to deactivate the fonts folder in Windows Explorer.
  My question:
  How to turn off or do not display "Fonts" in Windows Explorer my computer tab?

  I think it is unnecessary because it already exists in the Control Panel folder.

  If anyone can solve this, thanks in advance.

  Windows customizes the Fonts folder and offers a special folder view that allows you to hide variations, such as bold and italics. It also allows you to change the display settings of the file in a way that is specific to fonts. If you remove the read-only attributes and the Fonts folder system, these custom display settings not available. For folders that you have customized by using the tab, Customize dialog box Properties of the folder, the folder icon and other other customizations may be missing when you remove the read-only attribute.

• Is there an easy way to copy all of a Hotmail folder in a folder of Windows?

  Copy of one of Hotmail mails in the folder Windows is terrible. Is there a way to copy all of a Hotmail folder in a folder of Windows?

  Hello Pope Clementius,.

  Thank you for visiting the community! You can copy your Hotmail emails on your computer using Windows Live Mail to connect to your email. You can download Windows Live Mail from:

  Windows Live Mail

  ·         Download and install Windows Live Mail

  ·         Open Windows Live Mail

  ·         Enter the account information in the Connection Wizard

  ·         Wait for email to be downloaded onto your computer

  ·         Once the download is complete, exit Windows Live Mail

  ·         Click Start

  ·         Click on my computer

  ·         In the address bar, paste this address: %userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail

  ·         Open a folder that will look like Hotmail (*) where the asterisks could be anything

  ·         Here will display your folders (Inbox, drafts, etc.), open the folder you want to copy on your computer

  ·         Press Ctrl + a on your keyboard to select all

  ·         Right click on a file highlighted

  ·         Click copy

  ·         Open the folder that you want to copy the emails to

  ·         Right-click on an empty spot in the folder

  ·         Click Paste

  When you delete/move emails in Windows Live Mail or online access email on your computer in the Application Data folder will be deleted/moved as well. That's why you need to copy the mails to another location so that the copies are not deleted/moved.

  Hope that helps, I look forward to hearing from you.

• Cannot write to the folder C:\WINDOWS during repair or even Recovery Console

  The security on my folder C:\WINDOWS on my XP Home Edition somehow got changed to allow total control over a normal users (not administrator), and * only * this user - that is to say, no one else appeared in the list of users who have access to this folder.  I discovered this in the context of trying to figure out why the windows updates work is more due to the file permission errors.  To try to solve this problem, I changed the security for the C:\WINDOWS folder to 1) completely remove the normal user authorization and 2) add full control permissions to the accounts of two administrators on the computer.

  Unfortunately, next time I restarted the system, it would no longer boot properly - it shows a black screen with a white cursor, and that's it.  I then tried using the Windows XP Setup disk to repair the installation.  However, when the repair is executed, it is said that 'Setup cannot copy the file xxx.xxx' most every file it is trying to install.  It may even be all he's trying to install files.  The first file is complains about is vgaoem.fon and I tried to skip all files that fail, but I gave up after a hundred and it was still only about 25% complete.

  Then I tried to go to the Recovery Console to see if I could tell what was going on.  I noticed that I can copy files in C:\, but I can't copy anything in C:\WINDOWS or one of its subfolders.  According to the documentation, I should be able to copy files in C:\WINDOWS--sinon, the Recovery Console would be pretty useless.  My best guess at what happens is that the permissions for the folder C:\WINDOWS are somehow restricted such that even the administrator is unable to write to the directory.  The ACL apply in the Recovery Console?  I can't use the ACL commands in the Recovery Console, so I can't say.  Perhaps there is a registry setting that causes this problem?

  I really want to do a new installation I'm losing all my data (in addition to having to reinstall all my applications).  Any ideas?

  Thank you.

  Steve
