There was an error creating a zipped folder - "missing or empty zip file.

I use Windows 7 64 bit and want to Zip to a large number of content items in a foder, about 1200 points, amounting to 800MB. I select items, right click, "send to" and select "compressed (zipped) folder." The process begins and after an indefinite comes up with an error 'compressed folder error - missing or empty Zip file.

It's very strange because the process is in fact create the zip folder, sometimes it gets a little path through the process before the error and creates a small (8 MB) zip file, sometimes it get far and creats a big file (250 MB), but it ends.

Any ideas?

You can use a 3rd party zip software.
I don't know whether you are running in a limitation of the program.

Some have the trial version that you can download to see if it will work for you.

Thank you

    This means that the folder you want to create is blocked because of file permissions. The drive or folder you are trying to create the destination folder is set to read-only, and your username does not have write permissions.

  • Outlook Express (XP) - Error Message "there was an error opening this message. An error has occurred. "When you try to open an e-mail.

    I can not open e-mails or addressbook from OE.

    Help, please.  This has worked well for years.

    Remove Folders.dbx. If you can get OE open, create a new book of identity and address.

    In Windows XP, the files of user OE (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

    The path to the message will be very similar to this:

    C:\Documents and Settings\Your User of utilisateur\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\ {long string of letters & numbers} \Microsoft\Outlook Express

    With OE closed, find the Folders.dbx file and delete it.  Another will be created automatically when you open OE.

    Note these possible side effects:

    When you re - start OE, it will build a new index of all *.dbx files it can read and create a new Folders.dbx. However, understand that you will lose the mail directory structure and message rules will probably have to be edited.

  • Adobe Acrobat - 'there was an error opening this document. The file is not found.

    Guys,

    I have a virtual layer to Adobe Flash player, with a point of entry to Internet Explorer. Apart from that, we used Thinreg to associate pdf files with a Thinapp copy of the Adobe Acrobat Reader 7 (using the allusers switch). We find that, while trying to open online pdf files, Acrobat Reader load then shows the error "there was an error opening this document. The file is not found. If we save the file and open it works very well.

    I am positive that it is a problem of isolation somewhere in the config layer of Acrobat Reader, but have not been able to track it down. It is probably that the Acorbat layer not looking outside of himself for the temporary internet folder that contains the pdf file that IE has cached?

    Everyone falls on something similar and has a solution?

    Matt

    Try to set the modes of insulation for your temporary folders (%temp%, % internet cache) merged to your package of IE. In addition, in our environment, we put % internet merged cache%/contents.is5. Not sure if it makes a difference.

    It's the performance of FreeBSD. The server has no harm actually run but gets big enough and I would like to clean it up a bit. Any suggestions?

    Firstly it goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway...  Always back up all of the Virtual Machine with the Virtual Machine within the OS, not suspended, and Fusion to stop closed before trying to make repairs on a virtual hard disk.

    This may not work if it's the basic disk that needs to be repaired and the Virtual Machine has snapshots, but I go through it.  You can try to use "/ Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmware-vdiskmanager ' with the '-r' option.  Note: If the basic disk do not while snapshots are at stake, because it will cause more problems so my suggestion is first try to create a new basic without snapshots disk using the information below (see another option).

    Also one of the reasons to delete a snapshot may fail if there is no adequate free disk space for the operation ends so make sure you have a lot of free disk space.

    Another option would be to create a new basic disk, and then use dd by using an Image of CD/DVD/ISO Linux Live in the image of the old drive so written delta in snapshots to a new basic disk.

    I like to use the ISO Image of KNOPPIX_V5.1.1CD - 2007-01-04 - IN .iso to start the Virtual Machine and use dd to leave because it works well with VMware SCSI virtual hard disks.

    Also in Fusion 2.x, configuration the target Virtual Machine's .vmx file must be changed manually to have the present following parameters when using Knoppix.

    usb:0.deviceType = "mouse"
    usb:0.present = "FALSE"
    mouse.vusb.enable = "FALSE"
    

    Note: The first two parameters may already exist but if the other exists and is set to true, then set it to FALSE and the third are probably already so just add it.
