• XP unknown files consumed 71%, 52 GB of my hard drive. How can I get rid of them.

  Last month, my hard drive is full of unknown files. The magnitude became visible when I ran WinDirStat.

  I reduced the space allocated for the restore system to the basket and 2% to 2% Points. No significant impact.

  I stopped and restarted the system restore. No significant impact. I turned it then turn back.

  I ran MS cleaning disk before and after the change of the other Options to remove all but the most recent System Restore Point. No significant impact.

  I ran Auslogics Disk Defragmenter that revealed the paths, sizes and file names. I am unable to make a copy of the list, but it contains a ton of files, many of them up to + 400 MB. The following selection all have paths that include "SystemRestore".

  What should do? My system seems to be about to become unusable.

  Thank you.

  This is unusual.

  Files, and system restore points are all contained in the "hidden doubling: directory
  C:\System Volume Information\_restore {}...-
  None of the paths include the text "SystemRestore".

  Access to this directory is strictly limited by default and "WinDirStat" cannot be used to watch this directory without help.

  To completely remove your restore points and start over with a new restore point, simply turn off System Restore and then turn it back on...

  My guess is that the files that you see are not system restore area and are completely useless.  If these files are all under a common directory, try to rename this directory to something different and restart your machine.  If your machine continues to run well, then these files probably aren't necessary and can be deleted.  If your system does not work well, you should be able to start safe mode and rename the directory back.

• Some MP3 files are not recognized by Fuze

  I have a 4 GB Fuze v1. I got this as a Christmas present and want to use it to listen to Audio and video podcasts. I updated the Firmware from V01.01.22A. My problem with him that some MP3 files will not be recognized. MP3 files are on the card of 2 GB external so I, MPT/MSC mode does not matter. For example, "NPR: CarTalk Podcast" in format mp3 will not play but "The Index Investing Show" podcast also in mp3 format will play very well. I first noticed it with downloaded mp3 files iTunes, I do not think it is an iTunes related issue because the same podcast downloaded directly from the NPR site will also fail. No idea what is the problem? Here is the link to the download of the podcast (use the button download MP3/4): http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast/podcast_detail.php?siteId=9911203

  I solved the problem first I used Any Audio Converter to convert MP3 to MP3 with the same audio features. The file is converted to the same sheet worked! I noticed converted file was not any ID3 tag information in the original file. After playing a bit with MP3Tag software and tags removal began, I found that the offending tag has been KIND on the value of 'Podcast '. Fuze does not recognize "Podcast" in the field of the kind so he simply ignored, rather than list it under "unknown". In my view, that it is a bug. Sansa must list the MP3 files under Tote 'Unknown' when 'Genre' tag is present, but the value does not match any of the existing tags.

• Some JPEG files seem to download very well, but are rendered incompletely.

  Some JPEG files seem to be well uploaded by Firefox, but they do not completely. A progressive JPEG will remain very rough and no progressive JPEG will be missing the lower part. Of all the things I tried, I think maybe it's a bug of rendering in Firefox. More precisely:

  • The images are downloaded properly. The page loading stalls not but join immediately. If I click with the right button on the image and click "View image", he appears completely. If I open the media dialogue information Page tab and look at the picture, it appears quite as well. More curiously, if I use the eyedropper color tool and hover where the rest of the image * should * be, it displays the actual image pixels in the raster and also returns the value of the color of the image in pixels, while the main browser window always makes these regions as being transparent. I added a snapshot of the species to this post. Therefore, the problem also doesn't seem to be a problem of CSS/layout of the page (the Page Inspector shows the img block correctly).
  • Clears all data cache and cookies, then by restarting Firefox in safe mode does not make a difference. I even installed a vanilla Firefox to a new virtual machine and had the same problem when opening these pages. Other browsers (tested: Opera, Chrome, IE) do not show the same problem.
  • Reload with forced renewal cache (Ctrl + Shift + R) most often does not change the rendering of the image, but will rarely showing either more or less incomplete than before.
  • I can see the issue going on with two images on two separate pages. I re-encoded them using different software and different settings, but the problem persists, then it doesn't seem to be a problem of corrupted images.
  • I created an example of a toy to try to reproduce the problem: a same page with a different image, created specifically to try to trigger the problem. What I've found, is that the issue is triggered when the JPEG file above a certain minimum size (somewhere between 15 and 40 KB). What seems to be the rendering of the image in the main window stops after the reading of the image up to a certain length. Once again, the image seems well to be loaded into the cache and memory completely as evidenced by the display when you use the view image, or information Page.

  I made three versions of the test page to try to reproduce the problem. Image of the first page is 11KO and always seems to go completely. Images of the second and third page are respectively 102 kB and 107 KB in size and will be usually incompletely. The image on page 2 use the progressive encoding, so the image will end up blurred. The image on page 3 use straight coding, so the image will eventually be rendered with the bottom part missing.

  So far, I'm not sure why only, I encountered this problem on a specific Web site pages. Something must be the trigger, but it doesn't seem to be a problem with the server, the page or images.

  Update: I introduced the site at Browsershots, asking for Firefox 35.0 renderings and a previous version for each of the Windows, Linux and Mac. Unfortunately, the renditions for Mac failed. As for the others, none of the versions pre-35, 0 present the display problem, and it is not present in Firefox on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 35.0, but appears on Firefox on Windows 2008 R2 35.0.
  Here is the URL of the test pages where you want to check yourself: (darkened circles be transparent)

  http://www.abgase.org/firefox_debug.html (11kB, no problem)
  http://www.abgase.org/firefox_debug2.html (Progressive 102KO)
  http://www.abgase.org/firefox_debug3.html (no progressive 107KO)

  (Do Ctrl + Shift + R repeatedly if the question does not seem to show, to be sure. If by any chance I can get it to render properly, it will fail again after that 2-3 charging at the most.

  I did have a lot of time lately to make studying more. However, since the upgrade to Firefox 36 a few days ago, I can reproduce is no longer the question. This was confirmed during the audit on all my other Windows systems running Firefox: image rendering is usually interrupted when loading pages on Firefox 35.x, but still fine finishes after upgrade to Firefox 36.x.

  This problem can be considered resolved, that the bug seems to have been given to v35 only.

  I couldn't find anything relevant in the changelog of 36 of Firefox, but also found two Bugzilla reports that could have described the same problem, both claim that the problem goes away when you use v34 and/or v36:

  #1125789: image full size is only partially displayed
  #1126707: Firefox 35, MAC and PC image rendering problems

• How drive letters are assigned to external drives and file path names?

  How drive letters are assigned to external drives and file path names? MyBook is a drive letter (M) when it is connected to my desktop computer and another letter (L) when it is connected to my husbands office, USB key has the same letter, no matter what usb port is used. Is the letter assigned when the file is created and does not change? or is it to the port to which it is connected to? in what computer?

  Each computer assigns the player to the first drive letter not used in alphabetical order.  It makes no difference what port it connects to.

• Cannot stop a USB device due to some unknown program running.

  If I can't stop a device USB due to some unknown program running (like a virus), how can I find the program, so that I can stop it with the Task Manager?

  Hello

  The message (this device is currently in use. Close any programs or windows that might be using the device, and then try again) is usually the result of an application, file, open the document, audio or video, or any other application is being used (ranging from the USB key) when you try to remove it by clicking Remove the device safely in the notification area.

  The error can also be caused if your anti-virus is actively followed / analyze the USB drive. Normally, where the withdrawal of a USB flash drive, Windows must stop all operations of reading / writing on the disk so that it can be removed safely. If this is not the case, the flash player may be damaged or lost or corrupted data. However, if Windows determines that a file is in use, it can then provide a message that indicates the volume cannot be stopped now.

  So, before to eject or unplug a mass storage device, make sure that none of these activities are performed on the mass storage device before ejecting.

  A cut-off device

  Most USB devices can be removed and unplugged. When the fact of unplugging storage devices, such as USB flash drives, make sure that the computer has finished saving all the information on the device before removing it. If the device has an activity light, wait a few seconds after the light has finished flashing before unplugging.

  If you see the icon remove the device safely in the tray on the side right of the bar tasks, you can use it as an indication that devices have finished all operations in progress and are ready to be removed. Click the icon and you will see a list of devices. Click the device you want to remove. Windows will display a notification to tell you that it is safe to remove the device.

  I also suggest you make a system full scan just to be sure.

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

• Huge unknown file

  Hi all:

  I have Windows 7 and Norton 360. Recently, when I've been running some antivirus scans that I noticed that she was taking a lot of time and for some reason there are a large number of scanned files (almost 2 million). I have an external hard drive where I keep backups, things no reviews etc. I ran WinDirStat to see what could be cash for the large number of files and noticed a HUGE 'unknown' file on my C - about 44GB drive. I can't open this, I don't know if I'm the see when I use the BACK (DIR /AH - perhaps called ?) and I am reluctant to get rid of it without knowing what it is. Anyone have any ideas?

  Thanks, JB

  So I had a different problem on another computer and found the following instructions to clean up what's called a reparse point (sounds like a root vegetable).

  a. go in Start / All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / Disk Cleanup.
  (b) in the drop-down menu, select the drive you want to clean, and then click OK. The reader will be analyzed.
  c. in the next window, select the button clean up system files.
  d. Select the drive again, and then click OK.
  e. in the next window, select the Other Options tab. In the section System Restore and shadow copies, click the clean button, and then click OK.
  f. in the next window, select the delete button.

  This will remove all temporary files and all but the last System Restore Points.

  So I tried on the computer with the huge mysterious file and... It is! Should not have been this difficult to get a basic technical support without spending a fortune of fn.

  The iPad does not support USB keys. There are some wireless flash drives that can be used, but not the classical records. I suggest you transfer files to a computer and their synchronization then back to the iPad via iTunes.

• Some movie files will start all of a sudden lag or stutter?

  No idea why some movie files will start all of a sudden lag or stutter?
  You start to read a file and everything is ok, but then 2 minutes it starts to play up.
  If you pause and press play again, he will be ok for a minute and then replay upward.

  I thought that it had fallen because of the USB cable or wireless, but it still happens when I copy the files on the hard drive. The files are ok so read on a PC.

  Hello

  Can you post more information to better understand?
  Of course you have desktop PC and you want to watch movies from... where? YouTube, saved on the HARD drive external HARD drive?

  Video files in HD or compressed video files?
