Windows 7 - writing a file on drive C

I recently bought a desktop computer P under Windows 7 (64 bit) installed).  I am the only user and administrator.  When I try to create a new file (not a folder) to reside on drive C (to C:\) I get an e-mail saying I need to contact the administrator for permission.  I am the administrator and and I am logged on as administrator.  I can create the file in the library and then move it to the C drive, but cannot write in C.  Anyone know why?

Geowalker, here's a guide «management of user accounts and dial-up connections in Windows 7»  It may give you some ideas on how you can solve your problem.  If this does not help, let us know so we can try something else.

  • New installs on Windows 8.1 and file transfer from an external drive, saved from death PC Vista machine

    Hi, my old under Vista Home Premium (32 bit) desktop PC is dead and has been replaced by a new machine Windows 8.1 (64-bit).

    I took the hard drive from my old PC and put it in an envelope and the files seem to be fine. I need advice on how to do the following things 4:

    (1) how to find and transfer of e-mail, including records and contacts (I used the e-mail program provided Vista on the old machine) on the new machine and I can't actually set up mail on the new machine to my ISP (BT Yahoo) first (I didn't click on the mail app yet).

    (2) how to find and transfer bookmarks/favorites of Chrome and the old disk to ie11 and/or Chrome structure on the new machine.

    (3) how do I transfer files (photos, music, documents, etc.) so that they are available for all users

    (4) I installed iTunes on the new PC, I want to transfer music files and album cover (I don't know how the album covers are found, and some are "home made" to cover the chronological collections of singles) from the old machine in the easiest way possible

    Thank you for all the tips and advice.

    Hi Tovoyer, I'll try to answer your questions in order.

    1. Transfer old contacts and emails in Windows Vista Mail

      • First of all, you know that Windows Vista was the latest OS to come with a desktop e-mail program.  Windows 7 and 8 do not come with any successor to the Windows Vista Mail program.  Instead, you can get it as a download in the Windows Essentials page option.  Windows 8 has a rudimentary base e-mail app, but it is designed for the Tablet/phones and the lamp.  If you want something that compares to Vista mail program, you'll want to get the free download of the essential elements in this link before you move forward.
      • After you have installed most of Windows, you can open the program (so renamed "Windows Live Mail" and add your ISP e-mail account.)  This will download depending on how your ISP provides email, all or part of your story by e-mail in the new programme, possibly negating the need to transfer anything from your old installation.
      • If you do not need to transfer your old files, navigate to the file / import Messages option in the Windows Live Mail program.  Choose "Windows Mail" in the list, and then navigate to this folder on your external hard drive attached:

        D:\Users\(your user name) \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail\Local records
        (replace D with the drive letter for your hard disk enclosure, of course).

      • To transfer your Contacts is even easier. The Vista mail program did not contact directly, it stores everything in this folder

        D:\Users\(your username) \Contacts

        The file present in Windows 8, you can simply copy (or drag-and - drop) your contacts from the external drive on your drive of Windows 8 (C:\Users\(your name) \Contacts) and it will be flawless.

    2. Transfer of Chrome Favorites
      1. If you signed in using your Google account chrome, all of your favorites are stored in Google account, ready to be restored without effort.  Just to download Chrome again, go to the Tools menu and connect you and your bookmarks should appear.

        If you do not use the Google account or had the sync disabled, you can still find your bookmarks.  After installing Chrome on your new PC, find the old bookmarks on the external hard drive file here:

        D:\Users\(your Name) \appdata\local\google\chrome\User Data\Default\Bookmarks
        (Note the bookmarks is a file, not a folder, but has no file extension).

        And put it in the same folder on your installation of Windows 8.

    3. Transfer of Documents and Photos/etc and put at the disposal of all users

    Simply drag - move the files in the folder "Public" user on Windows 8.  These files are shared by all users.

    C:\Users\Public (\documents \pictures, \videos \music, etc...)

  • You can simply drag the folder iTunes from the old drive to the same place in the drive of new (music folder of your user account).

When I wnt in regedit to export it.  He said that there was an error writing the file, there may be a disk or FFL system error.

    Assuming that there really may be a disk or file system error, try to perform a 'chkdsk' on your hard drive.  Use the /R if running chkdsk or check both options if you use the GUI version.

  • Run Windows 10 from an external SSD drive? Yes, it works!

    That's what I did to make it work. The whole process takes about 45 minutes, but I think that it really is worth it if you want to run quick and clean Windows 10 on your iMac.

    What you need:

    • An SSD external - data is deleted
    • An iMac 27 "(end of 2013 in my case)

    Temporarily, for the installation, you will also need:

    • A computer with Windows 7, 8 or 10 to copy the correct files on the SSD drive and make it bootable
    • A computer running with OS X download BootCamp
    • A USB - data is erased

    First, in Windows, you get a file ISO for Windows 10. You can use the media to https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10 authoring tool and choose to save it as ISO file (do not create a USB bootable media).

    1. Double-click on the. ISO file. This will mount the disk to install on a disk (in my case, the letter E).
    2. Connect the SSD drive to a free USB port
    3. Open an administrator command prompt and type:
      1. DiskPart
      2. list disk (to identify your external SSD drive number)
      3. select disk 2 (or another number to your external SSD drive, make sure you do not erase your internal drive, usually on 0).
      4. clean - be careful, if you have selected the wrong disc, erase all the data on it
      5. create part pri
      6. Quick format
      7. assign letter = O (or another letter if already used)
      8. assets
      9. output
      10. DISM/apply-image /imagefile:"E:\sources\install.esd" / index: 1 /ApplyDir:Y:------(change E to another letter for the ISO file mounted)
      11. BCDBOOT. EXE Y:\WINDOWS/s Y:/f BIOS (so that the boot in the BIOS only drive (not EFI))
      12. output
      13. Eject all disks properly or simply shut down your PC.

    Then on your Mac, open the wizard BootCamp (click on Launchpad and type "bootcamp" to find) and check ONLY "download the latest software of Apple's Windows support. Save it on your USB thumb drive. Stop your iMac. Remove the USB key and keep it in your hand.

    Turn on your iMac by pressing the option (alt) key. You will see an orange icon with Windows. Select this option and wait until you see 'Getting ready devices', wait a little longer until you hear the startup chime and press the option (alt) key to make sure that start you on the external hard drive. That's all!

    Now you have a copy of Windows from your external USB drive. You just need to install the BootCamp drivers on your USB (\Bootcamp\Setup.exe). Reset.

    Oh, you have 10 Windows running natively on your beautiful iMac.

    Enjoy!

  • using projectors in a finder window does not always files

    I've recently updated to El Capitan. I can't using spotlight in a finder window to locate the files.

    Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

    Here's the situation:

    I assigns a number to each project that I'm working. The name of each file in the project begins with this number. For example project 3639 includes files named 3639.html, 3639 - 1.jpg, 3639 - 2.jpg and so on. They are located in different folders on the hard drive. To display a list of them all in one place I open a finder window, type 3639 in the spotlight box and voila - there is a list of all my project files.

    It works as usual for some files, but not others. Specifically the spot will not show me files whose names begin with 1 or 2 and are over 3 digits long. By example, if I search for 2344 I get NO RESULTS. But if I look for 234 and then I get a long list that includes the files starting with 2344. So I can scroll down and get the files I need, just ignoring all other files, but it adds the time and trouble to my file maintenance tasks, and it seems strange - why spotlight can find some files but not others.

    It took me all morning to get to this day. At first, I though that spot just didn't work at all. I searched 2344 and saw nothing, even though I know that the files are there. I can go to them in their respective folders, see them, then open them. But I can just no longer use spotlight to easily group and it makes me very frustrated!

    Since then, I have a clumsy work around maybe that's considered the issue is resolved. Unless someone has a cleaner solution.

    Try EasyFind, it's simple and much more effective research Spotlight IMO.

  • The access permissions to the NTFS file in "C:\windows" and "C:\Program files" are not secure

    Hey there
    Had a minor shock after I discovered that the access permissions default to the "limited users" in "C:\Windows\" and "C:\Program files\" are raised by the image automatically XP - Pro installed on my Tecra A6.

    Default access permissions to the NTFS file in "C:\windows" and "C:\Program files" for "A limited number of users" should not have permissions "File/writing data Creation" or "Creation of folders/adding data. This opens up for what is called dll redirection attacks (ref: http://blogs.msdn.com/aaron_margosis/)

    When you install a Win XP a normal retail or OEM Windows XP cd these two folders are special protected by this measure (not allowing the permissions listed for limited users). Installation procedure of your image work it around (in established Microsoft) measure and open breaches in security.

    Now I have to drop all these permissions and hope that all of the utilities of your work for limited users after that that, otherwise you get a very unhappy customer on your hands. ;)

    Hi Henrik

    Thanks for the information. I have a common user of Toshiba and I have never heard of such attacks to redirect m .dll.
    However, I think that if each user install antivirus software (nothing unusual at the time; everyone should use) and activate the Microsoft Windows updates and OS firewall should be safe.
