Why is there a red exclamation mark on some of my desktop files?
specifically adobe and Word files.
Hi Kelly,
Did you recently add or install or activate a new backup program or service to your system?
Do you use a service online, such as Mozy backup? If so, this icon could mark the files that have not yet been backed up.
Some programs from Symantec, such as System Center, mark the icons in this way. I suspect that there are also others.
In some cases, there is a setting to turn off this option - but I don't know how because I have never used a backup program that did it. If this is the case and you want to remove them, contact the seller.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

red exclamation mark on messages
Hello
When I open the messaging app, shows one of the contacts with a red exclamation point. I searched and it seems to be linked to the priority of messages (high priority) but cannot find settings how to change.
Anyone have any ideas?
So I tried to find, but as it seems the
Settings - sounds and notifications - do not disturb
does not exist on my phone.
but, the question itself fixed when I went in the ultra endurance and had to reset to the factory settings.
This means that my mode of Ultra endurance on my Z5 is useless because I can't trust him to work.
I had a lot of problems that I had to access the files via ADB to copy.

My documents have a red exclamation mark on their icons symbol - it was not there before
This could be trying to save with MacAfees online backup? I couldn't complete the download because of an error.
It could be the feature of McAfee for the backup, I guess if you get a backup this success will delete your file. You can confirm with the help of McAfee.

When veiwing in Acrobat Pro 9.3.4, why sketching a red appear in my PDF files? This happens with PDFs generated by Illustrator and InDesign.
For PDF files created in Illustrator CS4, the red outline looks almost like a bounding box just big enough to hold all of the items on my Illustrator artboard. When I'm viewing the PDF in Illustrator, the Red plane does not appear.
For PDFs generated from InDesign CS4, the red outline appears around the outside of the page border.
BTW, I brands and bleeding off when I create these PDFs. Am I missing some setting basic?
I apologize if this has been discussed before; I tried searching for similar problems, but came up empty.

It was getting my full disk space. Up to 1.2 GB to 73 GB. I removed some unnecessary files and programs up to 4.6 GB. Last night my internet was running very slow and I got a message that says that my disk space is full. I went to the Explorer, who intends to seek more to remove offline. To my surprise, it showed that I have 38 GB of free space. At the same time however, some (not all) of my desktop icons now have a red exclamation mark on them. There are some that are shortcuts, jpg files and doc files. That means the red exclamation that tempt me to now have more free disk space?
I would just be guessing really. He could have files, online backup was queued up. It may be something to do with the shadow copy of Volume. If I use cleaning disc with the option all users and delete restore Points and shadow copies on the tab "More options", I'll be back about 15 GB on a disc of similar size. The effect is only temporary, until they accumulate again.

Blue clock with red exclamation
A lot of my files, photos etc have a blue dial and a red exclamation mark on them. I would like to know why and how to get rid of them! Also Dell backup and restore wants money for the upgrade. All this happened after update from Dell.
You must go into the additional settings (pinion) in the application Dell backup and restore, then uncheck the "overlay icon status." (in variety)
I think it's true, my DBAR is doing a backup and I can't check. When it's done I'll confirm.

Cluster shows red exclamation but no alarms on host or VM
I have four hosts in my cluster HA/DRS. The cluster is showing a red exclamation point, but there is no error in one of the hosts, VMS, etc of data warehouses. There is nothing to clear.
All hosts are vSphere vCenter Server 5.
Any ideas on what a guy?
Maybe you can disable HA on the Cluster and enable again to see if the red exclamation mark disappears. It's a bit strange that you have an alarm but still nothing no trigger
