Under tools it will allow me to delete files from the 'C' drive, but when I click on (under Tools) to defragment, nothing happens. What should do?

After you delete the files from the drive 'C', the fragmenteur of disc (under Tools) does not work.  What should do?

Ron

In which window you find "Tools"? To run under Vista Disk Defragmenter, I would choose to start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, Disk Defragmenter.

What is the exact error message when you try to run Disk Defragmenter?

Is the hard drive, a conventional or solid state drive?

  • Deleting files from the Flash drive

    I have a Sandisk Cruzer Edge 16 GB Flash Drive.  I use it with two computers, an iMac and a Macbook Air, both using OS X 10.8.2.  Recently, I loaded about 10 GB of files on it.  I have now deleted these files.  However, Finder always shows the Flash drive as carrying 10.8 GB of files and having only 5,2 GB of available.  When I try to record a 10 GB file on the Flash drive, I get a message saying that there is not enough available space.

    How can I delete uploaded files from the Flash drive so that I can reuse the whole 16 GB?

    I don't use a Mac, so I'm going off the coast of the memory of what I read here before, but I think you need to empty your trash, while the disc is still connected to your Mac.

  • Reserectes from long deleted files from the hard drive Windows 7 Pro.

    Long very old files deleted, appear in My Document (files not necessarily the original). Repeatedly remove them, using a shredder program, they always appear. I wonder if the problem will be resolved to a clean install.

    Programs may not be transferred.  They must be installed again from your record source or internet downloads.

    Data can be transferred to a new system.  The best way to do this is to copy the data from your drive to be replaced (assuming that he still works) on a disk hard external - that's what you should be backup anyway - then, after your system is rebuilt, you can transfer data from this external storage on the disk.

  • Backup Windows remove deleted files from the backup drive when updating?

    I want to imitate a Raid operation for backup as closely as possible.  I have 2 identical HDs, C: and D:, that I will configure for automatic backup once a week.  I hope D develop beyond C, because I unload the external HDs files of C each week.

  • Deleting files from the Digital Image Starter Edition 2006

    I'm having a lot of trouble trying to remove files from the Digital Image, Library 2006 Starter Edition.  It is in such a mess with files for all my music files, Readme files and many other files that have no photos or videos.  I tried everything to remove these including uninstalling and reinstalling without the time, but it keeps always pick up these files and is therefore very difficult to find the image or video file that you need.  I want to delete all the files in the library and implement only the image and video files, which I need.  Can anyone help please?

    Hi volunteer J - I found the POD PD3 file, but when I go to change the type of file to the FORMER, he said that changing a file extension can render the file unusable.  I have copied all the Microsoft file along with the POD file, but wonder whether he should actually do this.  Advice please. -Thank you

    ===============================================================
    It's just a standard message warning... If you renamed the file back to Pictures.pd3 all
    would be as it was before you it renamed to Pictures.OLD.

    Of course rename will make it unusable, but it's what you need to do if you want to delete the library.

    Renaming or deleting the file Pictures.pd3 will force the Digital Image to create a new Pictures.pd3 file.

    If the warning message affects you... try to rename this OLD_Pictures.pd3 way

    I guess that you know, that the Starter Edition is only a 60 day trial version?

    Here is an article on how to repair a trash corrupted in Vista: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/131294-recycle-bin-corrupted-cannot-delete-file-folder.html.

    It restarts if you left or do a right-click on the icon or both?  Here are a few ways to empty it by using two methods:

    1. On the desktop, right-click on the Recycle Bin.
    2. Then click the Empty trash to empty its contents.
    3. You will be asked if you are sure that before it permanently deletes the files.
    4. If you're absolutely sure, then click Yes to clear the contents of the Recycle Bin.
    5. Alternatively, you can double-click the Recycle Bin to open and examine its contents.
    6. And then on the file menu, click empty the Recycle Bin.
    7. After confirmation, Windows Vista will be empty all files from the Recycle Bin.

    Go to control panel / customization / Desktop Icons and remove the trash, click OK and close.  Then go back and add the trash.  See if the new basket has the same problem.

    Here is a program that you download that adds a command to empty the trash to the command line if all that you need to do is type of the command in the box search now and it will happen. http://itsvista.com/2007/01/itsvista-tip-23-empty-vistas-recycle-bin-from-the-command-line/.

  • Deleting files from the downloads folder

    Deleting files from my downloads folder delete them will form my laptop?

    The downloads folder is mainly a temporary store. What happens after the download depends entirely what they are and what you were doing after download.

    Program installers will almost always unpack and create directories elsewhere on the disc in order to remove them from downloads does not remove the actual program.

    By default, zip files will create a folder extracted in downloads and will be deleted if the folder is empty.

    Photos, documents, music, etc. be elsewhere on your drive if you moved them. As the default drag and drop function within the same drive is move not copy if they are still there, there is a strong possibility that they are the only copy.

  • Webutil - deleting files from the application server

    Is there a Webutil function that will erase the files from the application server?

    I tried Webutil_file. Delete_File but it doesn't seem to work. Not quite sure if it's for customer files?

    Thank you
    Paul

    Hello
    Why don't you use HOST or WEBUTIL_HOST command to delete files of APPLICATION SERVER for example...

    HOST('DEL FILEPATH\FILENAME.EXT');
    or
    HOST('CMD /C DEL FILEPATH\FILENAME.EXT');
    
    or 
    
    WEBUTIL_HOST('DEL FILEPATH\FILENAME.EXT');
    or
    WEBUTIL_HOST('CMD /C DEL FILEPATH\FILENAME.EXT');
    

    Function Webutil_File works on the client side. See the documentation for webutil.

  • Deleting files from the Recycle Bin

    I'm removing three trash .avi files. I get the error message: "cannot delete dgx:file is used by another program or user; Close the program and try again." The x in the dg can be 2, 4 or 5 depending on the .avi should be deleted.  First of all, the files are not called "dgx" and I do not know what program to close.

    Hello and thanks for the reply. Google and tried one solution. Right click and cut the file, the computer restarts, then deleted and removed. I forgot to mention that these files were initially removed from the external drive. If the cut function should have taken control of the external hard drive (e.g. by the user). That seems reasonable? Yes, safe mode would have been my next test. Thanks again.

  • Deleting files from the HARD disk without confirmation?

    My catalog has thousands of duplicates.  I began to remove them by opening each folder & select 1 or more and do a right click to remove.  Whenever I do this I wonder if I want to remove the HARD drive as well and I always say Yes.  Is it possible to remove the step that requires the conformation?

    I don't think so.

    But what you can do instead to delete each file individually: you can try to assign a keyword such as 'tobedeleted' to the selected files. You can assign the keyword for multiple files highlighted on your screen, browse another page and so on. When you're done, you select all files with that keyword and delete all at the same time with a single click to ' also delete disk.
