Trash will not drain cleaning disk

When I run Disk Cleanup trash does not empty.   I checked it for cleaning in Disk Cleanup menu.   But nothing leaves the RB after I run DC.

Why is this?

  • My DVDRW DRIVE will not write to disk

    My DVD - RW drive will not write to disk, it is only recognized on my computer as a DVD ROM and CD - ROM only. I looked in Device Manager and there is no question mark by it and he says it's working properly, I had it works normally about 2 weeks ago, can you help me? L.M.Baggley

    If it worked about two weeks ago, you could try a restore point to return the parameters of your system they had previously, by using the system restore. It is in the startmenu, all programs, system, SYSTEM RESTORE tools. Choose a point of older and not the most recent. Alternatively, right - click the icon for your drive and make sure that the recording tab is there, and that registration is enabled on the computer. You will also find it better if you record at a slower speed and not the faster if you want to avoid reading errors. "THE BEST THING TO DO IN THIS WORLD IS A WRONG ANSWER! "I"DON'T"WINDOWS...". »

    Hi quietly,

    If your CD/DVD drive doesn't work, how do you have a system restore?

    Is the CD/DVD drive listed in Device Manager correctly or you see a yellow exclamation mark on it?

    Maybe the lens is dirty and must be cleaned with a Microfiber cloth. Open try CD/DVD and try to clean the lens with a clean Microfiber cloth.

  • Backup will not accept a disk formatted in drive A:

    I am running XP with SP3 and my Windows backup program works perfectly, creating the backup file on an external hard drive. At the end it asks me to insert a disk formatted in the A: drive, what I do, but no matter what I do, it just do not see it and asks me to insert a disk again. The disk is there, it has been formatted and is clean and it works fine, except for the backup program. Why? What can I do?

    Hello

    Ideally, Windows backup and restore will not ask for floppy drive.

    You try to create the backup recovery (of the ASR system) automated system?

    You configure the backup password protection on your external hard drive? If this is the case, I suggest you to not set the password for your backup.

  • Portege 3500 will not start up disk

    Hello

    I recently acquired the laptop above. I decided that I would try to reconstruct it, bad idea.
    I don't have an external CD or recovery CD but I have another laptop and a Windows XP CD.

    I removed the HARD drive the 3500 and put it in my other laptop. I formatted the drive and installed windows. Everything worked Ok and good boots in my other laptop. When I put the disc in the 3500 however, it will not start. All I see is a black screen, not even a cursor or any error.

    I tried to format the drive again and the sys'ing, it does not work. I tried installing on my other laptop then continue on the 3500 but that doesn't work either.

    I was wondering if the 3500 was looking for a partition that I deleted. I don't see why it will not start when start up ok in my other laptop HARD drive.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    Thank you
    Simon

    I don't think that this has nothing to do with the score. You get the black screen, because the other laptop is quite different installed on Windows ACPI etc.
    If you have a usb floppy drive try this:
    1 partition and format the disk with Fat32 (or fat 16).
    2. from your installation CD copy the i386 on the partition directory (attach the HARD drive to another laptop)
    3. start the P3500 leave a floppy disk bootable BACK, change to the I386 directory and start the winnt.exe

    By using Device Manager, when I ask him to fill the volume is the disk CD 0, Type DVD, free media, not applicable Partition Style, capacity, space Unallocate status and placeholder show all 0.

    I also tried to use a separate USB TSSTcorp DVD drive and it will not also read the Windows8 disc.

    vistia basket of mail will not delete

    Make sure you have installed SP2.  You can compact and repair the database with my Windows Mail utility, and it should fix the problem (www.oehelp.com/WMUTil/).  But its likely that some other program 3rd party intervened in the first place, in order to check that (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 - and also FYI just see #15).

    The only thing I have not tried is the restore disc but I'm not paying for one if it does not start as itl be a waste of money.
    Looks like it is a compatibility issue with the processor and hard drive because they won't be friends!

    Thanks in advance

    Hello!

    You can start in safe mode?

    If you don t have a recovery disk, use the Microsoft installation disc and try to boot from it.
    And you said that you can boot from the hard t disc, done you have tried different discs?
    Maybe some are not legible or not bootable.

    The best way would be a recovery disk. The installation takes a few minutes and you have a clean install with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba.

  • CD player will not recogize any disk media

    My CD player won't recognize any CD/DVD.  I ran the program Fix It, but it tells me that I have unreadable media in the CD drive. All other checks have the green check mark next to them, so I guess they are OK. I even reinstalled my driver. The computer indicates that the device is functioning properly. In addition, I don't hear the sound "Dervishes" when I insert a disc in the drive.  He used to work perfectly. I could read CDs and write CDs - it simply stopped working.

    I am running Vista Home on a Lenovo Ideapad 510 (32-bit) computer.

    Hello

    You do not hear the ROAR player indicates that it might be a power supply problem or have a
    has no engine support system technology and the need for a real computer store (no leeks and)
    glances at BestBuy or other BigBox stores) or Lenovo's Support.

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then check the cables
    both ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean the
    power and data of the contacts with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the system manufacturer
    and the manufacturer of the device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD &)
    Burn DVDs and CDs and read DVDs). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational parts while
    others do it properly.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
    as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as

  • HP Pavilion p7-1234: functional CD/DVD drive will not boot Clonezilla disk recognize

    Have three HP p7 in small desktop running Win 7 64 bit. (Avast free version)

    None of them will recognize a bootable Clonezilla ISO or Zip, whether on CD/DVD or USB.

    Measures already taken:

    BIOS set to boot from CD/DVD

    In turn the BIOS configured to boot from USB

    Have used any compatible version of Clonezilla downloads based on my operating system and the processor, including the generic i686 ISO and Zip. (and makes bootable USB drive)

    CD/DVD and USB function perfectly well otherwise. Able to access the other disks and USB media with no problems.

    Also able to see the Clonezilla ISO when I look at the CD/DVD drive.

    It starts simply what whether Clonezilla.

    If someone has encountered this, I would like to share your experience.

    Thanks for your time.

    One rookie mistake.

    Problem:

    Bad, I carved the Clonezilla ISO to CD/DVD disc.

    Solution:

    1. download the ISO Clonezilla appropriate for your computer, on your desktop.
    2. place the disc in the CD/DVD drive
    3. "right click" on the Clonezilla ISO on your desktop.
    4 Select "Burn Image" and follow the default values.

    Now you have a proper boot Clonezilla disk.

    Next:

    1. make sure the BIOS is set to CD/DVD is bootable.
    2. place Clonezilla disc in open the tray of the CD/DVD drive.
    3. restart the computer and close the CD/DVD tray
    4 put your finger on "F9" key and now wherever the blue HP screen appears, press "F9".
    5. boot Menu loads.
    6. move arrows down to the first line indented under "ATAPI CD/DVD DRIVE...
    SATA2 or SATA3 will be according to your system.
    7 hit ENTER.

    Clonezilla immediately, boots and loads.

    I hope it works for you.
