Somehow, I deleted my index.dat in the Cookies folder.

Somehow, I deleted my index.dat in the Cookies folder.  How do I get it back and I really need?

Hello

  • What was the location of the folder where you deleted it go?
The index.dat file is a database file. This is a repository of information such as web URLS, search queries, and files recently opened. Its purpose is to allow quick access to the data used by Internet Explorer. For example, all visited web addresses are stored in the index.dat file, which allows to find quickly the AutoComplete match as long as the user types an Internet Explorer web address. The index.dat file is specific to the user and is open as long as a user is connected Windows. Separate index.dat files exist for the history, cache and cookies in Internet Explorer.
The index.dat file is never resized or deleted. A large index.dat file can affect the performance.
 
Note: The .dat extension is commonly used for data files (files that are not readable by humans and not to hold a binary based on documents). It is possible to find named "index.dat" files that are not used by Internet Explorer.

    Is it possible to have the update of the main folder his "change date" when I change the contents of a subfolder?  I use VISTA.

    I don't know how to program so if you have a solution, I need step by step instructions.

  • Write data to the Source folder

    I'm trying to change part of a script that I use for work he entered into the source of a file folder, run on rather than to a specific folder (in this case, the office).  Can someone help me understand how to change and/or by adding the code below?

    create the reference to the csv file

    var file = new file (Folder.desktop + "/ Data.csv");

    Open the csv file in Add mode

    leader. Open ("e", "TEXT", "?");

    jump to the operating system in use on the line set

    ($.os.search(/windows/i)! = -1 ? file.lineFeed = 'windows': file.lineFeed = "macintosh";

    at the end of the file

    leader. Seek (0.2)

    write all the information required for the csv file

    Name of the document, Date1, database2, donnees3, etc.

    file.writeln (decodeURI (activeDocument.Name) + ","Data1","Data2","data3"," + data4. ") ToString()', '+ Data5.toString ());

    Close the csv file

    leader. Close();

    Now, I'm assuming that the part to change here is Folder.Desktop.  And I think I will need to change this option to be Folder.getFolderName.  getFolderName is a variable used in other code that checks the source directory of the current file.  This code of source directory, it's what I do not know how.  The script itself would have to do the check whenever it is running as I want him to be able to work with included subfolder of batch runs, make a new file in the subfolder when working with these files.  Anyone has any ideas, how to proceed?  Any help is very appreciated!

    Edit: I forgot to mention; It would be nice if it can also store the name of the folder in which the source file is in a variable, so it can be written to the file as .csv.  This is not as important as the code mentioned above, but it would be helpful none-the-less, if possible.

    No problem, I was able to solve it on my own all the time.  I thought it would be much harder than it actually was. but has been able to do by simply changing

    var foldLoc = new File ("C:\\Temp\\");

    var file = new file (foldLoc + "/ Data.csv");

    TO

    var foldLoc = app.activeDocument.path;

    var file = new file (foldLoc + "/ Data.csv");

    and now, it records the data and the .csv file in the same folder as the currently open project.  Thanks for trying to help; It is much appreciated.

  • How to find the date of a backup folder was added rather than created

    In a project of University I regularly saved the folder on a USB key. However, I'm not sure of the date I took the last backup. When looking at the Properties folder it says 'Date modified', but it is the date of the original folder has changed, not the date, that the file has been added on the USB. Is there anyway that I can get the date that I put the file on the USB key.

    Thank you
    Katherine Ellis

    Hello

    You can access the properties of the backup folder and see the 'creation Date'.

    Date created shows the date where the data are saved in the USB.

  • How can I sort folders of photo album of the date of the pictures inside of them?

    So, in my pictures folder, I have several files. Each file is an album.

    I want to sort the pictures folder, so each album folder is by order of date taken. However, that appears not to be possible that windows considers that the date of the album, FOLDER, not the content it contains.
    Is there a way to make Windows organize my folders in album by the date of the photos in their midst? Or should I just manually edit the files?

  • My Windows 7 computer has office in the Temp folder! It is wrong and what should I do?

    I had a hard drive because of all the files copied several times (a virus) crash? Restored the my documents, my music and my image folders to the new hard drive of the computer and manually delete the duplicate files.

    New computer works fine but I noticed the structure will computer > disc Local (c) > users > temp > and then Temp are all folders like desktop, downloads, My Documents, my music, etc..

    Is this normal, should I do something? I also have a folder named Temp in the Windows folder, which seems more the usual thing...

    Thank you!

    I'm afraid the old drive crashed due to a virus and is perhaps still LURKING in the new hard drive somehow.

    It seems that if the 'Temp' folder is the folder of the user profile of the account named "Temp". Open (Control Panel) user accounts and check if there is a username called "Temp". If so, do not delete this folder.

    Or, click Start, type cmd /k net users (press ENTER) to see the list of user accounts in the system.

  • Cannot remove from the applications folder

    Having a problem of deletion of any application in the Applications folder. I use El Capitan 10.11.6.

    If I try and drag any application to the trash or command + DELETE, I get the message 'the point 'whatever' cannot be moved to the trash, because some of its extensions are in use.

    I can delete if I use Option + command + DELETE and enter my password.

    So far I have tried:

    Restart

    First aid in disk utility

    But even in the recovery mode

    Repair of permissions through terminal

    Verified that the application is in fact all running processes

    Content of the application open and plugins will be removed.

    Any ideas?

    Exactly what app (s) you want to delete?

    FWIW, any application installed with the operating system should not be deleted.

    Some third-party applications must be uninstalled from their own uninstall program.
