What happens to the system folders, when the volume is dismounted?

Hi all
I'm having trbl with Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit on a laptop computer, which had its main drive partitioned into 3 different partitions: C for the OS, the D for my data and E for backup images.
Some of the 'system' (blue color), records such as: Documents, photos, downloads, etc have been moved from 'C' to 'd' too!

All 3 Partitions are NTFS volumes.   Partition "D" gives me wrong in what he tells me that he has problem with the master file table (MFT) and I shud run CHKDSK against it!  TRBL is then

I try to run it, it says:

CHKDSK D: /F cannot run because it is used by another process.  CHKDSK may run if this volume is dismounted first.  All handles to this volume would then be invalid.

You want to force a disassembly on this volume: Yes - No?

I took NOT because once again, when the disk has been partitioned, some of the 'system' (blue color), records such as: Documents, photos, downloads, etc have been moved from 'C' to

"D" and I fear that if I remove this volume it will remove or delete (if I reformat the partition), these files and I will not be able to use them more!
Also I don't really understand what it means to be "all the handles to this volume invalid?

I copied all my data on the partition "D" (for a portable HDD) and can run the chkdsk against her pgm or just reformat.  Can copy my data to him?
If I format, it will remove all the (blue) file system on it?   So how do they return to the "D" score for me to copy my data in?

Can you please help me in this case?

Thanks a bunch!

Sincerely, Cin

  • What happens to the volume clients with plans to upgrade?

    We are a TLP customer nonprofit with a few dozen licenses for the Creative Suite, InDesign autonomous, things like that. When we buy new licenses, we always buy plan upgrade. And keep us abreast of upgrade plans - management like the fact that we can predict costs for Adobe software two years to come.

    Related PDF says:

    Make your software more predictable budget

    Anticipate delays and updates of your software licenses current prices can be difficult, but Adobe updates budgeting doesn't have to be. By investing in Upgrade Plan, your organization can lock a price fixed for all licenses for future upgrade which are released during the term of your coverage period.* Upgrade Plan that takes the guesswork out of budgeting software and you buy software of tomorrow at today's prices. A percentage of the cost of the license, your organization gets access to the latest products of Adobe, which simplifies software management and stabilizing the budget forecasts. In addition, upgrade Plan costs can be paid in advance or by means of annual payments, allowing flexibility in the buying process.

    I could not find any information on what is happening to our upgrade plan. (And when I called Adobe CS, I was disconnected after only 70 minutes to hold. "And when I tried the CS chat, they told me to call). Something has been posted or said about the institutions with upgrade plan coverage?

  • What happens to iCloud disk files when you reinstall the operating system

    Hello.

    So I thought I use iCloud drive to store files from work because I had to increase 50 GB due to miss the free 5 GB because of photos.

    But my doubt is what happens if my hard drive is going nuts and I install everything... With a new installation, what happens to the files? Download automatically? Or they are deleted on the server (since the new drive iCloud installation folder would be empty)? And can they be backed up with Time Machine? If so, if I get Time machine, it automatically retrieves files from iCloud drive?

    I'm sorry for so many questions, but these are important files.

    Thank you!

    The files are up in the cloud - iCloud!

  • What happens to the system of that upgrade license?

    Hello

    Since then, apparently, buy an upgrade to pro w8 is useless when you have a business w7 on the key to the business (and do not know the key) AND you are a system integrator and a plan to upgrade your PC in the future after you have installed the W8, I thought... a workaround.

    I have a machine running windows xp that I intend to move to w8. Can I install this windows xp on another machine and then enhance it with another copy of upgrade of windows 8? (so, basically, I have a license of windows xp, I want to use TWICE to install an upgrade to windows 8, on two separate computers).

    Thanks in advance.

    PS. seriously, it is surprising, that I was not able to find this question in the database... and back also!

    You need two licenses for win8 to upgrade the two PC

    Mr President, I fear that you have spent too little time to try to understand this and just unnecessarily threw up this bollocks for a response.

    I'm talking about a situation where I have a system I want to use to install the upgrades on two separate PCs and 2 upgrade licenses.

    And you have not even scratched the surface of another question of mine - what happens to the license of the said windows xp?

    He is well known for this.

    Here's what's happening.

    What about upgrading the software? The software covered by this agreement is an upgrade of your existing operating system software, upgrade replaces the original software that you upgrade. You keep any rights to the original software once you have upgraded and you can not continue to use or transfer in any way.

    In other words, you cannot use the Windows XP license elsewhere.
