Where the control to show/hide the removable storage settings

I try to install Win 8 Prof.  I have a HP desktop with a CD player and 4 slots for removable media devices.

In a previous installation, there was a way to show/hide the removable drives / slots unless there was inserted media.

I don't know where the setting.  I tried the

strategies group without result.

I also lost the capacity of my office to recognize and attach my CD player.  It appears in Device Manager, but he said he is not physically attached.

I can boot from the drive.

Help, please.

Have you installed Windows 8 or you try to install it?

I use Windows 7 on my PC and in that, the option "Hide or show empty leads in computer folder" is located in the view tab of the window "Options records". It should be the same in Windows 8 as well.

If Windows 8 will not detect the device, try the steps in this link:

  • What is normal for the backup of XP SP3 and the startup type of the removable storage service?

    I was getting ready to plan and attempt a clean full backup for tonight.  I have the backups created on several entities, currently backup but have a very stable system at the moment and wanted to try to make a clean backup file.  That day has finally arrived after been forced a corrupted system files hard drive failure "repair" critical and forced me to go back to SP1a (my Windows Genuine valid CD which I highly appreciate) in order to obtain any boot system, including safe mode and console mode.  Repair has presented many incompatibilities at the level of program and system, including the basic WMI and COM of the corruption system.  Three months later... it of time to update my backups and recovery procedures and hope that this does not happen!

    In preparation, I decided to refresh my memory on the use of the backup and by browsing the Help and Support Service Center files.  One of the first things I noticed was "storage removable service must be started for the backup works correctly."  Audit and inspection of my existing Services using computer (Local) management, I have observed that after a normal windows startup, the removable storage service is not started with manual startup type.  I use a USB drive connected as my backup media, and it is fully operational as a normally formatted NTFS data disk volume.  I have windows indexing disabled on this volume.  Is the type of service required removable storage of normal manual started?  The backup program will automatically start this service?  I know I've never manually started it myself and backups seem to work well.  Should we change the startup type to automatic?

    I would like to leave as a textbook.

    The Service will start (if capable) as soon as ntbackup.exe begins.

    If you want to see, with your Services window related to the function of RS place and it will not work and the manual.

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Ntbackup.exe

    Click OK to start the backup and the Restore Wizard.

    Go back to your Services window and press F5 to refresh and SR Service should now work.

    When you exit the backup and the Restore Wizard, the RS Service stops (it may take a few minutes), and you may need to close the Services applet and reopen it to notice she's moved to manual and not running.

    You will see things like present to the event system log viewer:

    It's like aid and assistance...  Most of the people (including the technical support engineers who are hired by Microsoft) say to set the Startup Type to automatic, but you don't have to...  Set it to manual and it will start fine when he needs start (if he can).

    There is no need for these Services (and many other Services in XP) as starting at each restart and run all day without doing anything.

  • historical files won't accept the removable storage like SD card

    Hello

    not until I got my Tablet Surface Pro, I discovered that I am not able to ADD a SD memory card to the library, then having these backup files upwards through the history of the files.

    Historical files only accepts items (drives/folders) that are included in the library, correct?

    SD cards and other (disks) removable storage cannot be included in a library, correct?

    It could have been no problem in the past, but with computers as a shelf where you add storage capacity by inserting an SD card, it would be wise to look at it as a real player and allow removable storage appear in the library, right? I mean the USB portable drives are not really different and they can be added to a library.

    Does anyone know a 'trick' to be a part of removable storage library?

    Thank you

    Frank

    I managed to get the history file to my SD card backup in any first format in NTFS then authenticated users permissions.

    Click right on NTFS formatted the SD card and select Properties then the tab Security , under group or user name , click the button Edit then Add , and enter the user authenticated followed check names, OK etc.

    Then create a folder, such as SD-Documents and then right-click on that folder and select include in library > Documents or library what ever you want added to folder.

  • Has anyone seen this error of conditional text: show/hide is incompatible?

    When I generate my book file, I get the following error in the log:

    Show/hide hidden is incompatible.

    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot and resolve this problem?

    Thank you

    Janie Gulley

    FrameMaker assumes that when you export a book, you would like conditional text to shown the same way across all documents in the book. It warns you if it is not so.

    "Show/hide hidden is incompatible" means that the hidden state is not configured the same throughout your book. For example, it can be displayed in some documents but hidden in others, or an indicator of Condition red in some texts, but blue in others.

    To resolve this problem:

    1. Select a document in your book where the conditional text settings are correct and open.
    2. Click on the book and type Ctrl + A to select all the documents in it.
    3. Choose file > import > Formats. Import the Formats dialog box appears:
      1. Click deselect all.
      2. Check the conditional text settings .
      3. Click import.

    All the documents in your book have now the same conditional text as your chosen document settings.

  • hard drive internal, now recognized as removable storage device?

    everything was fine until I updated my motherboard drivers. I have an Abit NF-M2SV (Nforce 405) and after the updated drivers (chipset, storage, etc.) and my second hard drive which is SATA, arose in the removable storage as if it were a memory stick. If I stop the device it tells me to unplug it now, but it is internal and the system is always on. Anyone know what may have caused this?
    Thank you

    chris1991,
    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers community forum.

    If this happens when you updated your motherboard drivers, then you need to contact the manufacturer of your motherboard to see if they have a fix for it.  In the meantime, you can try restoring your system to a point in time before you updated the drivers from the motherboard.

    To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:
    Click Start, type system restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
    In the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.
    In the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.
    Click Finish.
    The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

    If this does not work, you can try to roll back the motherboard drivers, but it's very risky, so you should back up your system first.

    Thank you

  • I found the show/hide button toolbars, but you should know how to REMOVE toolbars that appear on this list?

    I found the show/hide button toolbars, but you should know how to REMOVE toolbars that appear on this list?

    Is attached a screenshot of my screen with the context menu to show/hide tabs. I want to delete some of them and let others. Please help me to know how. Thank you!

    Hmm, maybe this "one-time" imported into the new preference? Try this:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste the cust and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference of browser.uiCustomization.state and the content must be highlighted in a small dialog box.

    (4) copy the whole line and paste it into Notepad and save it as a backup.

    (5) in Firefox, click on the button '3-bar' menu > developer > Notepad. Remove the comment that appears and paste data preferably, that must appear on a long line. Click on the "Pretty Print" button to make it more readable.

    So I hope that you can spot the extra toolbars and change them out, taking care to preserve the commas between the elements.

    I don't have the extra toolbars in mine, but I copied and pasted back this spaced format and Firefox was able to handle it well. I went into customize and moved a button, and when I left, Firefox has rewritten the preference set as a single line. Assuming that yours works fine, then you can get rid of the backup from step (4).
