Why Windows keep moving & hide my files with me?

original title: make him stop, please stop! Why Windows keep moving & hide my files with me?

Windows Vista using Media Player 11:

I am way in music and want to have recorded and named in a certain way.  Sometimes in windows 'Explorer' I group songs into folders according to the albums I create (i.e. mixtures of burning); in this case, I'll keep the names from the same artist and change the name of the album (in properties) that I chose.  As soon as I click on the folder 'Explorer' moves it somewhere, I don't think.  Sometimes things end up in the trash that I know does not recycle.  It also renames my files.  For example, I had a song that I had saved the name of the file is: 01 History.wma; and the rest of the info has been saved in the properties (Album, artist, track number, etc.).  As soon as I turn my head the computer renames it to something that looks like this: 01HistoryAtmosphereSevensTravels - UndergroundRap.wma.  Why it does this and how can I stop it?

  • Why Windows 7 did install system files on my secondary internal hard drive, preventing it to be formatted or considered a Windows backup location?

    My computer has a Seagate hard drive 500 GB internal SATA that has the operating system on it and also a secondary internal Seagate IDE HDD 80 GB that I was drag files on a backup. I tried to format this drive of 80 GB to get a fresh start and use Windows backup to back up my files. Windows 7 will not format the drive, and he does not see the drive as a location of backup because apparently the clean installation of the Windows operating system, updated system files on the secondary drive. Disk management reports the operating system drive (500 GB one) as "disk 1-Boot, Page File, crash dump, primary Partition. It reports the secondary drive (the 80 GB one I would use with Windows Backup) as "disk 0-system, active, primary Partition". I would very probably disconnect the secondary drive and do other clean install of Windows 7, so he places all the files on the hard drive and do not involve the secondary drive, so I can format the secondary drive and use backup Windows? Or y at - it another way to fix this without doing a clean install? Thanks for any help!

    To create a new, full backup

    After you create your first backup, Windows backup will add new information or changed to your subsequent backups. If you save your backups on a hard drive or network, Windows backup will create a new backup, full for you automatically if necessary. If you save your backups on CDs or DVDs and could not find an existing backup disk, or if you want to create a new backup of all the files on your computer, you can create a full backup. Here's how to create a full backup:

    1. Open backup and restore by clicking on the button start , clicking Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance and then click Backup and restore.

    2. In the left pane, click on create new, full backup.

      Note

      You will see this option if your backup is saved on CD or DVD.

  • Return of the mistake of MUSE: why do we not have several files with the same name?

    Well - I thought I had all this worked and fixed, but I met the download error 'Why do we have several files with the same name' once again.  (I downloaded all the files several times today in order to 1) works the way it worked the last time and 2) get an OAM file that is not loading for some reason any load again and the download takes about an hour to transfer all the files manually.

    To recap:

    (1) an option "Upload only modified files" returns the 'Muse has encountered an error and closes.  Why do we have several files with the same name? "error just as before.

    (2) a full download will work but takes forever and is NOT a substitution for work changed files option.

    Please advise with possible solutions!

    -Dave

    Is it possible to have two .oam different files in different folders on your computer where the .oam files have the same name? I'm theorizing that there may be a bug in the treatment to ensure the folder created for a .oam placed on the server receives a unique name, particularly in the case of a partial update of the site on the server.

    Please send us the .muse file and all the files in .oam related to [email protected] along with a link to this topic for the context so we can attempt to reproduce this error and isolate the root cause. If files are larger than 20 MB, you'll need to use a service such as Adobe send & Track, Dropbox, creative cloud, WeTransfer, etc. file sharing. Thank you.

  • General issue of file on why my data store has 3 files with a _1 and _2

    OK, I'm a little new to this thing of VMware, but I was the main actor in this migration and have been the building and move all our servers to our ESX 3.5 with a back-end SAN platform.

    I did well until this weird thing, that I think that I understand, but I just don't know how to solve, or how it happened.  And right next to the bat, no I did not the instant code with this server... those that have been cleaned in the time there... Now

    My situation:

    I have virtual machines that are created equal, that they all have a 'C' drive for the operating system on another dedicated "LUNS for OS Storage" and then they have their readers of 'd' of the newspapers "SQL" on a dedicated LUN in mirror, and then the 'E' drive is on dedicated aonther "LUN DATA.

    If all servers have 2 or 3 LUNS associated with them. That's how the SAN engineer and I designed it. OK works great.  Until one day, I noticed that I was shy about 40 GB space on my SQL LUN. Took time but I think I found the culprit, but I don't know how to solve this problem, or if it will break my dose. So here I ask you all.

    One of my servers called "Server01" has 2 drives associated with it and supposedly 2 / 2 data warehouses, or even what he had initially when it was built in August!

    Now, the operating system data store is fine.

    When I'm on Console V and I click with the button straight on my server and go to his 'change settings' is what I see:

    SERVER01of properties on the "change settings of ' Advanced ' your drive hard 1" to the appropriate LUN and all the VMDK and those files are there. ""  (IE OS LUN 10)

    But "hard drive 2" pointing to the right LUNS (IE SQL LUN11), but his record is called "server01_2"?  What?    She was built and given a hard drive on this LUN, but the name of the folder is wrong.   So I'll browse my store data and low and this is, I have 3 files with the same server name (IE... ( Server01, Server01_1, Server01_2 ) OK so what happened? Why? How? and how in the heck can I get my space back 40gig?

    I checked records the name of the original server, as well as the other files on the data store with the numbers in the annex of _1 and 2 and they have all VMDK files in it... of course dates on all the VMDK files are different and I guess that since the server points to the folder called + "SERVER012" + and its VMDK file has the most recent data buffer on this subject since the last Vmotion We did it, he must then use this folder.

    OK great... but now that messes up my folder structure, and if this server does not use other VMDK files and folders he ate up to 40 GB of my precious space!

    I'm pretty sure when I went on vacation last year, because it is the time of the timestamp on the VMDK files in older records and "dates of the task of the procedures as" trying to clone, suspend, model, reconfgure, snapshot "etc. that the other members of the team tried to do something, which lead to my having 3 files on my store of data with 3 VMDK files in them.?  Nobody seems to know or remind us what it is they are trying to do... great... Well...

    I just want to know + If the server points to a folder called "Server01_2" and it has the most recent date stamp on this subject, can I then rename other files? + and then I can delete them?   And if I successful, how can I get my server to have the name of the correct folder again?    Instead of a * _2* on the end of it?

    Any suggestion would be great!    I learned the hard way that if your VM operating system is built and pointing to a file with a specific name, and you try to rename it to match the server, your operating system does not start!. LOL I hope that is not the case with a folder that has a 20gig assigned to HDD with oner VMDK file in it...

    Help!

    Thank you

    DAWNE

    No problem.  Cold migration allows you to move all your files in a data store.  You can use svmotion to move disks to different LUN, but the syntax is somewhat more complex.  The help option shows exactly how to move a machine virtual disk at a time.  Basically, you can move a disk with the config file, so basically, you move the config file and the disk of your choice in the data store that you need.  Move back the config for the original data store file, then repeat the process with the next disc.

  • Bridge CS5 Windows displays only not the files with the command ' move to '?

    Hi, people.

    I have a bunch of files on a connected USB external drive.  When I right-click on an image in Bridge and select the "Move" command, Bridge gives me only the option to select a folder on my desktop (specifically, only my user name folder).  It only gives me even to choose my root diretory.

    Everyone knows this?  For what it's worth, I notice the same problem with DNG Converter (I can't choose any file which is not my office).

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    P.S. I recently deleted my cache of bridge, but the problem started before I did this and still occurs.  Win 7 64 bit, 12 GB RAM, cache in Bridge set to maximum settings.

    Your prob could be linked to the same question. Especially because you mentioned the DNG Converter.
