• When I use the wizard to transfer between Windows XP and Windows 7 files disappears from Windows XP?

  When I use the files and settings between XP and 7 Transfer Wizard files on XP removed or will I still have the original as files?

  The files and Settings Transfer Wizard won't work on Windows 7, you must use Windows Easy Transfer.  But in both cases, the original files are copied only - not deleted.  They remain on the source computer.

  Missing on my laptop running windows 7, all the info displayed at the top of the home page. All headings, i. e. file, change the view etc. disappeared. There is no address bar. There is no "home button", the button refresh, etc.. My wife was using the machine when it happened, so I don't know what she was doing. How to restore these features?

  most of the information has disappeared from the window - topics (file, publishing, display, etc.), address bar and navigation buttons

  When all the toolbars are missing, you are probably in full screen view, press F11 to toggle mode full-screen, or you can move the cursor to the top of the screen.

  It is much more beyond these first 10 steps in the list, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

  Toolbars and their contents have been rearranged and buttons have been merged dual-use, the net result is that I could see about 25% of what I had before and recorded about 10% of the area of the toolbar with great loss of functionality to hide things that might already be hidden and to create confusing buttons that already have keyboard shortcuts and don't need to be seen. The only good thing that has been ' Ctrl + / ' has been added to hide/show the modules bar that has not replaced the status bar.

• The files 'disappear' when you add a period to a folder or a file name in windows through GUI

  The files 'disappear' when you add a period to a folder or a file name in windows through GUI

  I don't know if it's a bug, but certainly doesn't seem like it should be the case. I tried on both 64-bit and 32-bit on windows 7. Does not make this error on XP or vista.

  Can someone explain to me what is happening?

  To reproduce, in windows 7 make a file or folder, and THEN add a ".". (period) to the end of the name of the file and look at the file "disappear". It's still there, just need to refresh (F5) and it reappears (w/o of the annex "." because it's an illegal file naming convention).

  I tried to do the same thing but through command line and it always auto corrects names of files to the conventions, and correctly, it remains on the GUI, so I think that the problem is related to the graphical mode of name change

• All the pdf I downloaded on my desktop (Windows 7) suddenly "disappeared" and I can open and view, but cannot remove them or move them to another file.  When I try to delete, I get a messge saying my trial has expired and he wants me to have

  All of the pdf files I've downloaded on my desktop (Windows 7) suddenly "disappeared."  I can open and view them, but cannot remove them or move them to another file.  When I try to delete, I get a message saying my trial has expired and he wants me to buy which I can't do because I don't have a serial number to put in. What happened to the "free" Adobe Reader I thought I had?  How can I get these PDF files to become mobile?

  You (or someone) downloaded the free demo of Acrobat Pro, a little more than a month. If you use this software $20 / free months instead of drive for a month. If you don't want to buy it, now you must uninstall it and go back to the use of Acrobat Reader.

• Windows 7 folder with the files disappeared - not in the Recycle bin - where?

  Hello

  While in Windows and playing music with WMP, I wanted to rename the folder where the current files of music played. He says that the folder is busy with something. I closed WMP and tried to rename it, he still repeated the record is held by another application and cannot be renamed.

  Now, at this time, I could not close the application and restart, so I used the hibernation and reset with linux. Once under linux, I rename the folder located in My Documents on a different drive than the Windows files and rebooted the computer with the previous Windows Hibernate file.

  Once back in the window, I just can not find the folder, or all files. When searching for files, it says links are broken. I looked in the trash, and this case is here. I returned on linux, and here again I do not see the folder I renamed earlier. It was a few days ago.

  Does anyone can tell where is this file? Should I assume that the folder has been deleted? Or hidden somewhere?

  Thanks if you can help me to achieve something.

• Desktop files disappeared

  Hello

  I had folders and files, now all files disappeared, records remain only. Files where 2 photos, 2 .txt files, a shortcut to a Web page and a few other similar stuff.

  I'm not sure what I did to create the problem, I saw the elements disappear I think when I moved an image on the desktop.

  I tried looking for one of the files by using the advanced search (search in files hidden, etc.) and to recycle bin but there is nothing.

  So where can they pass? If you suggest me to do system restore I would like to know what system restore will remove it from my pc, because I download files when this incident's product.

  Thank you

• Files disappear from WMP

  When I RIP files to WMP two things happen: the ripped files do not appear in WMP or prviously ripped files disappear AND just ripped files are not displayed.

  The first thing to try is perhaps the Player Windows Media "Fixit" tool available for download here.

  http://Support2.Microsoft.com/mats/windows_media_player_diagnostic/en-us

  This will be to diagnose problems in WMP and you provide details of the measures recommended... be aware that unless you make specific choices he will reset the default values and restore your library to check what options you want to continue.

  (If it does not work on the first attempt after download, you may need to try to restart your computer).

  If this has no effect, then it may be necessary to try a system restore.
