Search for temporary files in the Expplorer folder
I'm used to looking for all temporary files in file Explorer (such as ~ $areness_JPH.doc, ~ $areness_JPH.docx). I find with the stream "~ *.» "*" (quotes included).
It works in certain drive/directory, but not the others. In general, this does not work in my partitioned disks as G:\ H:\ When I searched with "~ *.» "* ', I get all the files, which amounts to research" *. " * ».
Clues? Thank you.
I do not have the same restriction for some reason, I'm not, but I have the syntax, you can try. Special symbols are not always easily available and may require the use of the special search syntax and quotes. Since you are looking for the ~ always at the beginning of a file name, I would try the characters ~< which="" limit="" matching="" to="" the="" start="" of text="" (by="" the="" way,="" ~="">, with the arrow in the other direction, deadline for the end of the text, and ~ = is to match any part of the breast). (The tilde in this syntax is coincidentally matches what you are looking for and are used for research in general).
name: ~.<>
If you want to use wildcards and search for symbols too, the syntax is just ~, but this requires also a complete match as if it was the "equal" sign =, so should be asterisks at the beginning and at the end of your search text to find partial matches. (The "equal" sign requires a full match but does not allow for wildcards).
name: ~ ' * exa! "improved."

I just find that I can't search for jpeg files in the Finder.
I am totally stumped. If I try to search for a folder full of images JPEG, nothing doesn't come, no matter what terms, I used. Anyone find this? No idea why this is happening? It's a quirk of the Mac?
I do not get this question at all. I just did a search in a complete Finder of jpg file and I was able to use different terms to find some files. Are you making sure you're looking this particular folder and not to the Mac?

This message appears on the desktop after windows starts upward
If you have correctly typed the name of this file, your computer has been infected. Either you have uninstalled the malware program or your antivirus/antispyware program did. In all cases, a reference has been left in the boot file. You can remove the reference by managing your startup.
Because you had a piece of malware, the chances are too high you had others. It would be a good idea to scan.
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_MalwareManage startup:
(for XP) Start > run > msconfig [Enter]
This will open the System Configuration utility. Look under the Startup tab and find the likely culprit. Uncheck the box next to its name, apply and OK out. You don't need to restart immediately, but next time you do, you will get a dialog box saying that you have used the utility. Just check the box that says in effect, "don't mind to this subject again".

Windows search fails to find the files in the Documents folder
Original title: Windows 7 search finds no files, even though all the settings have been verified and the search index has been rebuilt
I recently bought a new Dell laptop Studio 1558 with Windows 7 Home Premium and moved through several hundred documents from my old PC to the new folder 'My Documents'.
As many others have found, Windows Search has been completely useless. She seems to have no problem finding files in the music folder or image, but anything in the document library is invisible to the it - even if I get in a subfolder small for a file name I see just in front of me, Windows Search will announce that "no element not corresponding to your search.
I took a number of steps so far to fix the problem, which none have worked:
1. I checked which locations are indexed for search and ensured that the document library is among them (as well as all of my C drive).
2. I checked that appropriate file extensions (.doc .docx .pdf, etc.) are all selected from the "File Types" list in indexing options (although I noticed that 'Description of filter' for .pdf bed "Registered IFilert is not found" - not this problem with Word documents).
3. I have deleted and rebuilt the search index.
4. I ran the troubleshooting Windows 7 Search tool, which reports that it cannot find any problems.
5. I have read that some problems with Windows 7 search can be solved by changing a registry key (http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-fix-windows-7-search-problems/) but when I navigate to the folder in my registry, only following three keys are here (not the one mentioned in the difficulty):
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderTypes\ {0B2BAAEB-0042-4DCA-AA4D-3EE8648D03E5}
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderTypes\ {36011842-DCCC-40FE-AA3D-6177EA401788}
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderTypes\ {59BD6DD1-5CEC-4D7E-9AD2-ECC64154418D}
A couple of things, I said - if I create a new word document and save it, Windows Search seems to immediately get back on it and is able to find. I also noticed that at first when I opened one of the word documents that have been transferred over the old PC and then closed it again, Windows Search picked up on it and could find it. So I went to try to open and close then all of my documents (an arduous task...), but the subject to halfway through Windows Search has ceased to be able to find them.
All Word documents using Microsoft Word 2007 in .doc or .docx format, although the problem also applies to Excel, PDF and image files, so I don't think that the problem is with the word itself.
I have tried everything I can think so far, including all the solutions, I could see suggested in previous discussions. I really need the search function working to effectively use my laptop so that any help would be welcome!
Thank you, Jack
Santosh thanks, I checked the permissions for the appropriate files and SYSTEM was present, which doesn't seem to be the problem. However, I found a solution that might work for other people are having the same problem.
I noticed that if I changed the location of the files, Windows search suddenly seems to become aware that they existed and then indexed and followed them correctly - even if they were subsequently moved back to the original location. I just created a temporary folder outside my library of documents and then each subfolder in the folder my documents him and then come back, one by one. It was a bit laborious but the problem solved - I know not why it worked, but all the old files are now indexed and appear correctly when you use Windows Search, and it seems not to have any problems, follow-up of the newly created files.
Cheers, Jack

How can I search in Windows 7 for all files not containing a speific (_) character in the file?
I have two files with about 50 000 files in each folder. There are many copies of the same file (only one folder contains photos, the other file has data files. In the two files copies have the same name as the original file, for example IMG01, but identified for example IMG01_1, IMG01_2, etc..)
I would like to find all files that DO NOT have a _ in them. Can I do this? How?
Or I have to search for all files that have a _ by searching for * _ *? Delete these files?
I tried, but program trotted for 2 hours. Just take a while?
I thought that if I could search only files without the _ it would be more effective.
Less than 20% of the files in each folder have not a _ in them.
You should be able to use a? or * to replace a number of characters that are either unique or variable. * book would find both book and facebook, or? ook would only book.
Anyway, there's probably not a way to identify the files corrupted by a search.

Remove temporary files from the local disk c/documents and settings/user/localsettings/temp name
By definition, this folder should contain only the elements you don't need. If I understand correctly, this temporary folder is a place where temporary files are stored during program facilities and the facilities. However, I have seen references other sites to help saying some programs can store folders and files.
I do my own temporary file elsewhere, name it accordingly and move all the files in the temp folder to the new folder. Use your computer normally for a while, and if nothing complains about missing files, you have a good indication that none of the moved files are important and should be safe to delete.

Cannot create a .db file in the assets folder
I am trying to create a quizz.db file in the current folder by creating first a temporary quizz.db in the folder data and then creating tables inside and then copy it in the current folder. By debugging code, it shows that the folder is created. But I can't find it in the current folder. Here is the code
#include
#include #include #include using namespace bb::cascades; using namespace bb::data; SQLTest::SQLTest(bb::cascades::Application *app): QObject(app) { const QString fileName = QString("quizz.db"); QString dataFolder = QDir::homePath(); QString newFileName = dataFolder + "/" + fileName; QTemporaryFile file(newFileName); // Open the file that was created if (file.open()) { // Create an SqlDataAccess object SqlDataAccess sda(newFileName); // Create a table called Employee in the database file sda.execute("CREATE TABLE Employee( firstName VARCHAR(50),lastName VARCHAR(50), salary INT);"); // Insert employee records into the table sda.execute("INSERT INTO Employee (firstName, lastName, salary) VALUES (\"Mike\", \"Chepesky\", 42000);"); sda.execute("INSERT INTO Employee (firstName, lastName, salary) VALUES (\"Westlee\", \"Barichak\", 55000);"); sda.execute("INSERT INTO Employee (firstName, lastName, salary) VALUES (\"Ian\", \"Dundas\", 47000);"); if(sda.hasError()) { } else copyFileToAssetsFolder("quizz.db"); } } void SQLTest::copyFileToAssetsFolder(const QString fileName) { QString appFolder(QDir::homePath()); appFolder.chop(4); QString originalFileName = appFolder + "app/native/assets/" + fileName; QFile newFile(originalFileName); // If I enable this `if` condition the code satisfies it and removes the quizz.db file and then it satisfies the next `if` condition and successfully copies the quizz.db file from `data` folder to `assets` folder. /*if(newFile.exists()) QDir().remove(originalFileName);*/ // this `if` condition is not satisfied. Which should mean the quizz.db file has been created on assets folder. if (!newFile.exists()) { // If the file is not already in the assets folder, we copy it from the // data folder (read and write) to the assets folder (read only). QString dataFolder = QDir::homePath(); QString newFileName = dataFolder + "/" + fileName; QFile originalFile(newFileName); if (originalFile.exists()) { // Create sub folders if any creates the SQL folder for a file path like e.g. sql/quotesdb QFileInfo fileInfo(originalFileName); QDir().mkpath (fileInfo.dir().path()); if(!originalFile.copy(originalFileName)) { qDebug() << "Failed to copy file to path: " << originalFileName; } } else { qDebug() << "Failed to copy file data base file does not exists."; } } // mSourceInDataFolder = newFileName; } If activate the commented "If" condition of "copyFileToAssetsFolder" int he removes already created quizz.db file in the current folder (that Im unable to find) and goes inside the next ' if' and copy the quizz.db created on the folder "data" of active fodler.
