Structure of files in Windows 7 - how Desktop level is related to the level of Documents

It seems that the highest level in the structure of files in windows 7, for a specific user, or office. The documents appears to be a sub-level.

If I can change this hierarchy and if I don't me I run in trouble? (in my mind, the office is subservient to the Documents. Desktop is

simply a place among many others that a document can be stored). So if I had to continue my logic, I would have the following as

the structure:

machine

user

documents

Visual

auditory

network

devices of

subservient to my questions above, I'd love to know the entire tree structure of files for windows 7, and if possible, how it can change for windos 10

Thank you.

Let me clarify a few things quickly.

'Computer' is really just a way to see all top level in one place, which is your access to the physical storage devices, IE the hard drives, CDs, flash drives, etc. (who receive a letter, that is to say C is your primary drive which includes your OS, E is an external hard drive, F corresponds to the DVD player) K is a player flash etc.). These devices are your higher real level.

On the next level, all but C (the disk containing the operating system) is pretty much defined by someone ' u as the user put into it, apart from all the files in the device really should run, that in general, you won't see, and whatever it is pre-installed, which usually take.

The second level to the C drive, however, is a little different. While you can add your own folders generally however you want to, by default, it includes a number of files that manage operations for your OS and your manufacturer, performance logs, fonts, etc. and the file you are looking for specifically, users. The latter contains folders for each "user" of your machine (user accounts, files accessible to the public, in addition to the files for some programs that run out of any user account, not your system). In this case, you must, in addition to your own files and folders, you decide to put there, a number of files 'default', like Documents, desktop, Favorites, etc. These are paths to commonly used files, and some have uses within your system (IE desktop contains your desktop, Favorites contains your Favorites from Internet Explorer, etc.).

To my knowledge, Windows manages the movement of these types of cases, but I have not dealt with it before, I let someone else to answer if it's ok to do, and what would be the possible consequences.

  • I chose the wrong option to install Windows. How do I delete and select the option of correction?

    I installed windows incorrectly

    I download windows to a brand new computer that I just finished building. I go through the download process and realized that I didn't click at the right way to download it when he asks you to upgrade ore the other option. I wonder how I can get windows of my computer so I can download it again properly please help.

    If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

    How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

    Click Install now

    Accept the license agreement

    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • Lightroom-"this file cannot be found" - How can I get rid of the preview?

    Hey.

    I started to import my photos from a computer disk using lightroom. I then use the bridge to get a glimpse of my files and remove unwanted images. When I return in Lightroom the images that I deleted were still seen in the catalog. How can I get rid of the other previews that manually going through all and removing now unwanted previews.

    Thanks for your help,

    Eric

    Hi Eric,.

    I think that the easiest way is to select 'Library' > 'Find all missing photos', then 'Edit' > 'Select all' then 'Photo' > «Delete pictures...» ». You get then a message to confirm to delete the photos and images of masters cannot remove because they are absent and where you have published one of the pictures with the help of a publishing services you get another message on this subject. Confirm and you should be done. I would really consider sorting and removal in Lightroom, even if you don't have to worry about all this.

    Hop this helps and have a nice day

  • in my file has changed recently, I constantly abt 10 thous of the jpeg & xml documents that are displayed.

    where they come from & how stop them from appearing. need me abt 1 HR to delete all the. Sharon R Bertling

    That's why I recommended the steps I did in my previous post - although it seems as if you have not yet tried.  They would systematically eliminiate possibilities for why these files keep re-appearance.  What AV program use you - I mean the one that you use are the Trojan horse in the first place (and I assume you are using yet)?  Do you remember the name of the virus?  It is possible that, despite the fact that you re-installed the system you likely to be infected (still or once again)-, that's why I have recommended to several programs different anti-malware initially.  The other stages are designed to verify your system files in an attempt to fix anything that causes this problem.  The last step is similar to a re - install except it does not affect your data, programs or settings - but will put your system to its original state (Yes, you will have a lot of updates to catch up) if all goes well after the first step to eradicate all remaining malware that may affect your system files and caused this problem (or still cause this problem).

    When you say that you get a completely different window when you type anywhere - do you hear when you perform an advanced search by clicking the search everywhere hyperlink?  What is the difference - I mean, what is different about it?  You can send us a screenshot?  Generally, research shows the folders and files and don't separate them into folders as folder recently changed (even though it may include elements that it contained - especially one request search everywhere).  If yours are separated in a recently modified file list then that certainly does not work according to the specifications (and makes me think the malware system file changes or malicious software).  Which version of Windows Vista you're using (I have 32 bit Vista Business SP2)?

    Thank you.  Please answer these questions and try these procedures.  We will do our best to help you, but we need your help.

  • Messaging App in Windows 8: how to add a person in the Chat?

    There is a tile in Windows 8 both in desktop and phone called e-mail versions.

    I have a Hotmail account, which I gave to my Surface to use my login name. My friend has a 920 Lumia, and she recorded his Microsoft ID with the phone for its Gmail e-mail address. It doesn't surprise when I found his ID in my list of people in the Windows 8 and was immediately able to chat in the e-mail. (Same as iMessage in iPhone, I thought)

    But he surprised me (greatly) that my another friend who recently bought a Surface Pro and Microsoft Account was also recorded with his Gmail address not appear in my list of people, and once I manually added the contact, there is no way to add the contact on the cat of e-mail, as the e-mail offered as much as reduced the list of my contacts , and my friend, who got the Surface Pro, wasn't in the list. There was no way offered to invite him. I searched. Nothing. There was only one option, Skype. But I didn't want to jump between two courier services, between two tiles. I want to one place, and Skype looked less attractive; It's OK to call, but he is too busy for a chat simple text, to my taste. Also, I would like to be able to talk to my friend by the cat of Outlook in online Web site. It can and can not be installed on the machine of Skype...

    So, how can I add a person to the Windows 8 messaging chat?

The EAS is a technology that allows you to synchronize your email, calendar and contacts between multiple devices (like your desktop, laptop and tablet). This means that January 30, 2013, Google services, you can synchronize with your PC under Windows 8 or Windows RT, and how you synchronize them, will change.

  • How to access a movieclip on the class of document of another class?

    Hello!

    Go further on my application, I felt in another problem. Although they have a lot of messages on the web in this respect, none of the solutions worked for me

    In my document class two containers (Main.as) I ve. A void and another with a star that is imported to the library. Here´s the main class:

    package 
    {
         import flash.display.*;
         public class Main extends MovieClip
         {
              public var container1:Sprite;
                    public var container2:Sprite;
              var _star:star;
              public function Main()
              {
                   // First container
                   container1=new Sprite();
                   container1.x = 50;
                   container1.y = 200;
                   stage.addChild(container1);
                      _star=new star();
                   container1.addChild(_star);
    
                            //Second container
                            container2=new Sprite();
                            stage.addChild(container2);
                   
              }
         }
    
    }
    

    Right now I ve a star placed inside a container and the container is placed on the stage. I also created an additional container named container2.

    Now, I want to define a base class for the star. I named it as experience. Here it is:

    package 
    {
         import flash.display.*;
         import flash.events.*;
         public class Experience extends MovieClip
         {
              public function Experience()
              {
                   // constructor code
                   this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICK,Clicked);
              }
                   public function Clicked(evt:MouseEvent):void
                    {
                          trace("Star was clicked");
                          this.parent.alpha=0; //travels back to container1 and sets alpha to zero.
                          //how can I access container2? this.parent.parent.container2 doens´t work!
                    }
    
    
            }
    }
    

    Inside of the "Clicked" function I want to access the container2 placed on the stage.

    I tried:

    this.parent.parent.container2.x=0;
    

    which gives me the error:

    1119: access of container2 property possibly not defined through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObjectContainer.

    I ve set the two containers as public. In this way the two is accessible off hand.

    In the meantime, I also tried to step to the constructor of the base class.

    The idea is to have the scene on the base class and so call containers directly from the stage.

    In the constructor of the main class, I add:

    home= this.stage;
    var pencil:Experience = new Experience(home);
    

    Then, in the base class I change the constructor and added something:

                                  .
                                  .
                                  .               
    private var _stage:Stage;
    
              public function Experience(home:Stage)
              {
                   _stage = home;
                                  .
                                  .
                                  .
    

    However, when I put as the class basis of the star movieclip class I get an error. If it works, but I want to put the class as a base class for this doesn´t approach meets my needs

    How can I do this?

    I hope you can help me! I want to use the classes but very delicate they´re!

    Thanks in advance for all,

    Best rgds

    You can use an event listener and the event dispatcher to listen to events to happen, something like this:

    star.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, callContainer2Function);
    
    function callContainer2Function(event:Event):void{
         trace("calling container2");
         //dispatch string event
         dispatchEvent(new Event("Calling container 2"));
    }
    
    container2.addEventListener("Calling container 2", container2Response, true);
    
    //When the container2 hears the string you dispatched, it will fire this function
    function container2Response(e:Event):void {
         trace("Container2 responding")
         //do your code
    }
    

    Hope that helps,
