• Windows 7 user folders Redirection question - how to remove old, inactive placeholders?

  Hello

  I have just directed my documents folders user (Document, music, photo, video, Desktop, etc.) of my drive C:\ (128 GB SSD drive) in my D:\ Drive (1 TB HARD drive) for reasons that are obvious to many. I followed the instructions in the following link: redirect a folder to a new location

  However, after redirected each back, C:\ drive My now still has placeholders of old for the following folders: music, photos and videos (highlighted in the attached image below) and I can't something with them (delete, rename or hide). What bothers me, for two reasons:

  1. they are always there LURKING and I can finish by clicking on them instead of the redirected folders (as you can see there are three folders corresponding to my images, videos and music). I get the message "Access denied" whenever I click on them (I am the only user of that PC and the Admin, of course);

  2. in the second place, I might want to redirect folders in the future to their original location, which will cause a problem because the placeholder is where, in my opinion.

  Could someone please help and guide me how to remove these placeholders? Remove these placeholders allowed and recommended, or not?

  I would be very grateful!

  Thank you!

  Frank

  

  Hi Frank,.

  You don't want to remove these.  It is possible from the command line with a few advanced controls, but it will break.  Many programs, even parts of Windows itself, look for these files at this location.  These placeholders function as junctions and will redirect all programs to the new location if they try to use them.  But if you delete placeholders, these programs will not redirected properly and they will fail.

• A library fom a deleted user account still shows in my Windows Media Player "other libraries".

  I created a couple of local user accounts on my computer that I deleted later.  Even if the user accounts are no longer on my computer, their libraries still appear in Windows Media Player "Other libraries" on my system and for other people on my network. How can I get my computer to stop sharing of libraries that do not exist?

  In fact, I don't want one of my libraries in ANY of my user accounts appears on the computers of other network users.  How do I stop sharing libraries?

  Open services.msc and find the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If you stop and disable the service, that the libraries should no longer appear on other computers.

  But if you had a deleted user who always showed upward, you will have to dig into the registry to fix. I had the same problem with a deleted user and only just found out how to remove it.
  First you must find the SID of the user removed before removing all the elements in the registry.
  Look in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList. There are sub keys that represent the SIDS of the users of the system. When click on each sub-cles see you on the right side ProfileImagePath that can help determine who the user is.
  Once you have the SID go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\PREFERENCES\HME (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\PREFERENCES\HME if you use 32 bit 8 Win). Here will be locked by using the same SID you found under the ProfileList key. Delete the main folder that relates to the SID, you want to remove. To remove the SID folder, you may need to take ownership of the folder SID key.
  Then go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Media Player NSS\3.0\Media servers. Here will be another folder related to SID that you remove. After the two keys were removed, restart the Windows Media Player network sharing service.

• All user accounts Windows XPrestricted open all of a sudden 'Map network drive' by clicking on the desktop and the "research" by clicking on any folder

  Hello

  you have a problem with my Windows laptop that left me speechless.

  I would really appreciate if someone could provide a solution or any ideas where to start fixing this, as I get close to return to the previous backup full system, but reluctant to do so as I have never done it before so I'm worried if it really works as supposed (Macrium and Ping).

  1. description of the problem

  All users of Windows XP (SP3) restricted accounts open all of a sudden 'Map network drive' by clicking on the desktop and the "research" by clicking on any folder, including My Documents.

  However, all accounts administrator work as before and also user accounts work like so usual, they are included in the Administrators group, with respect to the clicks of the workstation and records.

  In addition, the correct icons for 'Drive' and 'Record' are visible when connected as long as administrator but lacking when logged as long as user restricted when you check the file associations by "open the folder and then click on Folder Options in the Tools menu.» Click the registry file types list. »

  2 solution unsuccessful attempts

  2. google and tried the solution to manually change the registry entries from Microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321186

  "
  Start the editor of the register (Regedt32.exe).
  Look for, and then click the default value under the following registry keys if this problem occurs with folders:
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell
  If this problem occurs with drives:
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell
  Click on edit in the Edit menu.
  Type 0 in the value data box, and then click OK.
  Exit the registry editor.
  "

  (Fixit associated meanings has also not working for some reason, says that the Windows Installer does not run, don't know if the same problem...)

  2B. and then also tried the fix "regsvr32 /i shell32.dll" at http://blog.chron.com/helpline/2005/10/double-click-opens-search-instead-of-folder/.

  After these steps, the registry under "Drive" and "Directory" information are as attaché at the end read somewhere there should be a "find" under lock and key, as I have, but don't know if the subkeys under 'Search' are what causes weird behavior.

  If anyone knows and could provide what the values for the registry values must be in a system that works, would be nice to compare to possible problems.

  Unsuccessfully, with what precedes, to solve the problem, but noticed through that:

  2 c. When you are logged in as administrator, I am able to see and modify the registry keys concerned with regedit, considering that when logged in as a regular user, I get an error that translates roughly as "the key could not be opened [consultation]?.» Error in opening the key. "for"Default icon"and subkeys 'shell' to 'Drive' and some subkeys under"shellex ".

  Oddly enough, this is also the case even if I "Run with" regedit as a user belonging to the Administrators group when logged in as a limited user.  Could be the mechanism of Windows registry access.

  Noticed that the small group 'Users' did not have access to "Drive". Grant read access, even as the "directory" and other registry keys next to them, for "users".

  Now see the values of registry as a limited user, but the problem persists. Do you really know what to try next, after spending hours Googling for answers.

  3 computer laptop environment and other factors

  3. don't know if it's related, but perhaps that coincides the time and the possible reason of sage:

  I had the problem two days ago described in "account Administor doesn't have access to some files and registry entries" to http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Windows/XP/Q_27415496.html.

  Zone alarm free firewall prevented changing the key of HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microdsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.

  Which was fixed as in the article above tweaking of Zonealarm settings so that changes are allowed.

  3. the environment of the laptop:

  Acer Travelmate 8204 laptop

  Windows XP SP3 with virtually all updates of installed Microsoft.

  Recent issues (related?) with the .NET Framework 4 updates and the repair facility. FixIt against MS to install MS Update and the Application works and reveals no problems, but the settings from-> Panel-> Add or Remove Applications said that it cannot change or delete NET Framework 4.

  ZoneAlarm Free Firewall version: 11.0.000.057, prevented possible culprit get earlier access to the registry, uninstall?

  Norton Antivirus version recently installed 20.3.1.22, possibly in conflict with ZA or bug?

  It seems that I managed to solve the problem on my own. Did two things:

  1 set the registry keys determine programs associated objects 'Répertoire', 'Drive' and 'File' to the default values by using the settings found here: http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm

  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\

  2. If you want to have permissions for group 'Users' to read all these keys in the registry. For some reason any access worked only partly for standard users.

  Not sure who finally solved this problem, but after I had finished 1. and 2. for the purpose of 'Record', by clicking on 'My computer' and any folder works normally for all users of the computer.

  I suspect that some recent installation of program which adds actions associated with these objects messed up the registry. Suspects are Norton Antivirus and dbPowerAmp.

  Thanks for the suggestions for this problem!

• How to control access to a folder by local users in Windows Vista?

  Hello

  There are two users on the PC A (Administrator), B (Standard user). I don't want B to access some folders and want to give only read only access to certain folders. Is it possible to do this in Windows Vista Home Premium or I need a third-party software to do this?

  Sorry, it does appear to me that you use FAT32 (or whatever version you use) on your system partition or boot in a Vista system.  Here is an article comparting both and he concludes that you use NTFS, unless you have a very good reason for using FAT (and frankly, I can't imagine what it may be, unless you're dealing with VERY outdated and costly to replace equipment that cannot handle NTFS - but it would be EXTREMELY rare) http://www.theeldergeek.com/ntfs_or_fat32_file_system.htm.

  It is very easy to convert your system from FAT to NTFS without losing all the data or need to reinstall your programs or reset your configuratations - it there simply and that's all.  Here's how (and it is very easy): http://techblissonline.com/fat32-to-ntfs-conversion-in-windows-xp-or-vista/.

  In addition to the benefits listed in article first in this post (and the second too), you will be able to use security of files and folders (which was the point of all of this thread) as you hear it all through (and you probably won't have the second set of procedures to implement the Security tab, because I suspect that the conversion will automatically be added for you when all is said and done.)  You can use the procedures I mentioned in my first post for your goals.

  I hope this helps.  It would be really better to convert to NTFS for various reasons (including that it allows you to do what you want to do with the security of the file/folder).

  Good luck! Lorien - MCSA/MCSE/network + / A +.

• Change the default file for downloads and some user folders locations

  A big thank you to all who have helped me, more recently DAXnnn and try * 3.  I come once more in need with questions.  For the cleaning of my boot partition before cloning to a smaller SSD, I'm getting cause folders USER My Documents, my music, my pictures, and my videos to be moved to a different physical disk drive.  I also want to do the same with the downloads.  After trying to use MKLINK (without success) and the location of the tab in the properties for folders (in vain), try * 3 put me on editing the registry.  While I did not yet any change, I followed his instructions to look under HKEY > CurrentUser > software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Explorer > Shell user folders and confirm watch registry.

  What I found is that the actions I took before running into problems using the options of localities had caused registry entries updated to show the new names of path of My Documents (under personal in the registry path) and my music.  This leaves downloads, my pictures, and my videos to be changed before the data transfer of the boot partition to reduce before cloning.  I discovered the writings of my pictures and my videos contain a variable %UserProfile% then the names of folders.  My assumption (often a wrong thing to do, I know) is that I can change these entries replacing %UserProfile% with the name of path, including the drive etc letter describing where I want to move the old data and write new data and changes.  IS THAT CORRECT?

  Regarding downloads, what I discovered is the second entry in HKEY > CurrentUser > software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Explorer > User Shell Folders, below (default) is a name {374DE290-123F-4565-9164-...}, displayed once indicating the value of % USERPROFILE%\Downloads.  Using my penchant for the skip logic, I assume that I can edit this article replace the value data with the path name where I want future writing downloads.  IS THAT CORRECT?

  If I can confirm or correct information, I am very close to stripping the size of my partition boot prefixed operation clone to place what's left on my SSD.

  Thanks to all for participating in such a large forum community!

  Yes you are right.  If you want that your download location for be moved, just change:

  Old: %userprofile%\downloads

  New: E:\OtherDrive\Some Windows\

  This will make all your downloads stored in the folder 'folder of some '.  Just be sure to include a folder name and make sure that this folder actually exists.  Make sure not to say a disc like E:\ or all your documents could get dumped at the top of this reader, rather than in a folder.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C655-S5305 application, running Windows 7.  I made a few cds of music there are chandeliers and that they will not play on this computer.  They do not play on my computer of husbands, good girls.  I think that they are MP3.  My cd drive is appearing and showing to work properly, but just read it as a blank CD.  To go with this... I am a legal transcriptionist and use a program called FTR player.  I downloaded some MP3 audio files and who won't play in my FTR player either, so I think it has something to do with. MP3 files, in the form of .wav files play in my FTR player very well.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance, Jodi

  Red flag.  CCcleaner.  If you used to "clean" your registry database, which can cause problems.  CCcleaner is also a good program, but registry cleaners do not help and remove what they think are "unused" entries in the registry that can cause problems later.

  Try to download the Real Player and see if that corrects your problem, but if it is not, you may need to restore your computer to the factory settings by your user guide's instructions.

  When you got your system back as you, I invite you to buy an external hard drive, and a good backup 3rd party program. You can configure it to automatically do everything in time and frequency of your choice. External hard drives 1 TB are about $85 these days and a very good FREE backup program corresponds to the Easeus todo backup free of charge that you can download from

  http://www.todo-backup.com/products/home/free-backup-software.htm . Who can make you save a lot of time and frustration, the next time something like this happens. Sooner or later, it happens to all computers for one reason or another.

  Good luck.

• My e-mail Yahoo stopped appearing in one of the unified folders in which they should appear.

  My e-mail Yahoo stopped appearing in one of the unified folders in which they should appear. The mails are downloaded and available if I search under the Yahoo account but are not part of the unified list. I have repaired all folders and compacted all records to try to fix this without a bit of luck. I use Thunderbird with lightning 2.6.6 24.6.0 calendar and sorting records 1.1 manually add ons. Everything worked fine for several weeks and arrested the week without significant change. Manually, I download and install the updates and only updates (Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1) system have been Windows Defender (definition files) and as a result of security Norton (also the definition files). Yahoo is configured as an IMAP account. I hope that I have provided all the information you need to help. I really prefer to use folders unified if possible. I also tried the following by a similar thread.

  Menu (Alt + H) help > troubleshooting information
  Click the display folder.
  Close Thunderbird
  Open the mail folder
  Open the folder of boxes smart mailbox
  Delete the inbox and inbox.msf files
  Restart Thunderbird.

  This did not help.

  Thank you for the help and so fast. I checked for the option "Match all messages" and found that it set correctly. I also noticed a line reading 'Some files to search' next to a radio "Select..." button "I clicked on the button"choose... ". "and found that the check box next to the Yahoo Inbox was empty, I checked it. Problem solved. I appreciate the help you provided. I'm not sure I would have found the answer if you don't direct me in the right direction.

  If you use their firewall and the XP firewall at the same time, this could also be a problem.

  It is generally not a good idea to use two firewalls at the same time lest they are fighting among themselves.  Choose one or the other to use, but not both.  The XP firewall seems to do a good job.

• Update Windows shows about 100 updates important to apply. How would you recommend I do. I'm afraid to apply the patches to 100 at a time. Those who would be safer to start with? Thank you

  The manufacturer has replaced the HD on my computer laptop 64 bit Windows 7.  Update Windows shows about 100 updates important to apply.  I can't find patches that I had previously applied in the list of applied hotfixes or patches to apply list.  I don't understand why this is.  How would you recommend I do.  I'm afraid to apply the patches to 100 at a time.  Those who would be safer to start with?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I suggest you only begin to install the important updates (recommended) first and later if you want you can install optional updates. All Windows update are safe to install and it is important to install the update and recommended by Microsoft. It keeps your computer safer and your software current to date and if you want Windows to install important updates as they become available, turn on automatic updating. Important updates provide significant benefits, such as improved security and reliability. You can also set Windows to automatically install recommended updates, which can address non-critical problems and help enhance your computing experience. Optional updates are not downloaded or installed automatically.

• Records of user in Windows 7

  The folder 'Users' of Windows 7 doesn't like his name and sometimes it changes. Right now, his name is 'Documents and Settings '. He could have other names that I don't remember. I don't want to update Windows 10 until this issue is resolved.

  You should see the two names, if you enable "show protected system files" in your options.  The name of "documents and settings" is only a false redirect, not a real folder.  This is in case the older programs are waiting for this name, but it just redirects to "users" in Windows Vista and later (including the 7, 8 and 10).

• Except Public and UpdateusUser no other user folders appear in C:\Users.

  Original title: can't see the user folders

  All I see in C:\Users is public and UpdateusUser.  User records show nothing.

  Hi EK Blackwell,.

  Did you the latest changes on the system?

  Method 1:

  You can check if the folders are hidden.

  For more information, see the article:

  Show hidden files

  Method 2:

  You can start in safe mode and check the number. Display the results so that we can help you with more troubleshooting.

  For more information, see the articles:

  Start your computer in safe mode

  Startup options (including safe mode)

  Method 3:

  It could also be an infection on your computer. Try to run an online scan and check if that helps.

  Check out the link to launch the scan:

  Microsoft safety scanner

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
