Unwanted in 'My pictures' folders are multiplying. I can't get rid of them.
"My pictures" file has reproduced hundreds of my dozens of images of time and I can't get rid of them. I highlight, hit 'clear' and while they are moved to the Recycle Bin, they are also copied, so I find myself with the same overwhelming files I want. Now, Picasa is also importing and copying. Help, please.
Unwanted copies have file names with
copy "prefix of"?
Example: Copy of IMG_1455.JPG
Maybe the info will shed light...
failure to completely release the mouse button
When moving from one room to another is
the cause of unwanted copies.
Here's how to reproduce the unwanted
copy of...
Hold down your CTRL key and select multiple files...
Place your pointer over the selected group
(holding the key ctrl) and left click / drag
the group even just the slightest bit... now
release the mouse button.
Ooops! More copies...
Maybe the following will help:
Sometimes most of the person who
trying to select multiple by holding the CTRL
or the SHIFT key down while clicking on the left to select the
image files.
Copies are created when you are unable to
completely release the mouse button before
you move the pointer to another file. When a group
the selected file is dragged... even the slightest
release the mouse button will produce a bit...
copies of all the files previously highlighted.
It's a little easier if you have your folder
Options set at single click... that way you can
select/deselect a file with just a mouse more
and you don't have to click. For multiples you
I have to keep... CTRL or Shift.
Do not click on... no slip... no copy... maybe that of
your solution. To adjust the click...
Open a folder and go... Tools / folder
Options / General tab... Check... 'single click '.
To open an item"/ apply / OK.
If you want to delete all the files in a folder
You can try the following:
Reach... Edition / select all... or type... CTRL / has...
With all of the files selected... go... Drop / delete...
or press your delete key... or... click on the
Group and choose 'delete '.
How do I find and remove unwanted 'copies '.
of your image files.
Open the folder that the images are saved in and
on the left, click on the button 'Search' in your toolbar.
(If you view the files from a montage
program and do not know where the record is... right
Click on one of the image files and the menu...
choose... Properties. The path to the folder will be

In the research pane select... "All files and folders".

you want to delete the files, click Yes.
Now... on the left, click on the 'Back' button in your toolbar.
Now the remaining files should be your originals.
If you delete the wrong files... recover from

perfect strangers (people standing or sitting in the background of an image that I took) are appearing in my list of people and there is no obvious way to get rid of them.
The only thing you can do about them is hide people or ignore them, if they appear in the section "Add people" from the album of peoples.
If you hide a person detected, no photo with this person will be added to a memory.
See this help page: http://help.apple.com/iphone/10/#/iph9c7ee918c
Hide and show people. Tap Albums, people, press Select, tap on the people you want to hide, and then select hide. To redisplay the people, press on show hidden people, press Select, people, then press display. Photos that contain hidden people appear not in Moments, Collections, the years and memories but are visible in albums.
Show hidden people. Press Albums, people, drag upward, on view hidden people. To see all the pictures with hidden people, tap Albums, tap Hidden.

I just installed Adobe Rader 9. There are files left. How can I get rid of them?
Hello. I installed Adobe Reader 9. The installation folder is on my desk, and there is an installer for Adobe 9.0 folder in the folder on the hard disk. There is also a folder Adobe 8.0, the uninstall program has not been deleted. It isn't that much in the Adobe folder 8.0, but I not went.
The uninstall program did not have the best job, then I wonder where maybe hidden files and how do I clear my hard drive from the old Reader 8.0 files, etc..
I am concerned about the registry entries, hidden files, etc. So where should I look?
Is there an uninstall program that I can download?
Thank you.
Yes, uninstall Adobe Reader (not all Adobe software) using Add/Remove Programs, restart, and then remove all remaining files and folders.
If it does not, use the Windows Installer Cleanup*utility. Yes, this utility was withdrawn by Microsoft from my post, but can still be found on many download sites (use Google to locate).
*) The Windows Installer Cleanup utility works on all programs that were installed with Windows Installer, not only Microsoft Office.

I have a sidebar with bookmarks, then the add-on of the tree Style tabs in a sidebar. The right part of the screen was previously dedicated to the active site. Now all of a sudden it was split into 2 horizontal sections - the upper part with the site and the lower part with a pane containing warnings and error messages. How can I get rid of this component of the error, which is a real pain.
This is the classic error consoles and not the browser which releases current Firefox have as part of the developer tools.
Using an extension that adds this version or the error console?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
- Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

My collection of "All photos" fills upward with images that aren't mine... most of them look like Microsoft icons. How can I get rid of them and prevent any more?
Right-click on one of the images icons Microsoft and select "Go to library folder." Check if you have imported inadvertently a system folder or documents. Check the folder in the library 'Files' pane and if it's a subfolder to navigate to the top-level folder. Make sure that it does not contain any image files you want inside LR by checking the names of all the subfolders. If in doubt always select menu library > "Show pictures in subfolders", then in grid mode through the images. Once confirmed you can 'remove' unwanted images from LR by doing a right click on the top-level folder and selecting 'delete '. The files will be deleted from LR, but not your hard drive.

Hello
The reason the most common check marks (collection icons) you describe, is that they are used to identify files that have been backed up on a line such as the following backup service.

These marks could also be associated with the file Microsoft Skydrive online service. When a file is placed on your Skydrive space, the check mark is placed on the file.

All of a sudden my pictures folders are now all show in Windows Media Player and I can't open each photo in full screen, but only in the video display mode. When I go to my pictures and choose view as thumbnails, that's fine, but when I click on the individual photo, it shows on the screen no video not in mode full screen and I can't move the photo to the photo without closing the video screen. How can I get my pictures on Windows Media Player?
This problem has now been resolved. I went in my computer > tools > Folder Options > file Type, select the type of file and clicked on advanced then > change and changed back to Windows Picture and Fax Viewer in Windows Media Player. I had the idea of a response posted on this forum about a different issue, but who pointed me in the right direction.
