with the removal of the assosciated file icon. How can I delete the icon?

I have icons on my desktop that I can't remove.

They correspond to files (excel pages that have been deleted, the image file when the file has been deleted, etc.).

I have 3 of them. 2 were there 11 months (not important, I know).

When I right click on them and press 'delete', I get a popup that says "cannot find the file."

Any ideas on how I can get rid of them?

Try in safe mode. If still no joy, try this tool.

  • When file/collection, how can I delete all the related items that are not on my last composition?

    Hello, I have a great difficulty using the file/collection a large file I did months ago, because when I use it, the file is created, but it takes 2.5 to space! compared to others of my works, taking almost 1 TB of files, this one is too big and I think by deleting some files, but I don't want to make a mistake, so I wanted to ask here, if it is possible to take a main composition and only do a file/collection of this composition, objects and elements that serve there (the last I made on my account at least, with the elements used on that, because I think that there are many (if not a large part of them) files and elements that are not used in the final version, as scenes of the version beta of my work, the problem is the composition is too long and have a lot of different archives or drop movies then it could take forever to do it manually...

    Thanks for reading me! I hope that this is a solution...

    It's a two-step process:

    1. reduce your project to the desired composition.

    2 recover your files.

  • How can I delete a file on my iOS device that I downloaded from my iCloud? I just want to keep the Preview on my iOS device without using my storage iOS for the entire file.

    How can I delete a file on my iOS device that I downloaded from my iCloud? I just want to keep the Preview on my iOS device without using my storage iOS for the entire file. This means that the file is still in the iCloud and available to be downloaded to any device.

    In practice, I want to be able to scan and download through my documents located in my iCloud and once I didn't need them on my iOS device I would like 'load their return to the cloud' to my storage of the iOS device is not used.

    Thank you in advance to the community!

    The only way I found to do that once a file has been downloaded is to remove it and add it again through either from Finder on Mac or iCloud.com.

    I'm trying to uninstall Verizon's VZ Access Manager.  I get "invalid UNINSTALL Uninstall Wise. LOG file.  How can I get this off for Verizon can help me to get the new drivers installed?

    Hello retabox, welcome.

    It would seem that the installer is corrupted. I recommend trying to use the Windows Installer Cleanup utility to force - to remove the application. Try this:
    2. click on the download link in the middle of the page
    3. save the file to your desktop or just click Run the installation of the application
    4. once the application is installed, open the utility. The utility must be located in the menu START under (START > programs > Windows Installer...)
    5. in the utility, find the application you want to uninstall, and then click the button 'delete' below
    6. once removed, restart the computer and see if you can reinstall the application
    Let us know if it works,
    Thank you!

    I tried to install 300 photos on a USB I installed and come with an Ox80070052 error message. Please advis how can I install the rest of the photos without the passage of the error.

    Hello BrendaMay,

    ·         What exactly do you mean by saying that you install photos?

    ·         You try to copy photos from your computer to the USB key?

    Try to format the hard disk to the NTFS Format USB and check if you can copy the photos.

    If does not work, try to format to FAT32.
    1. type devicemgmt.msc in the Vista Start menu or in the Run dialog box.

    2 expand disk drives, right-click on your USB key that you want to format it in NTFS file system, and then select Properties.

    3. on the Policy tab, select optimize for performance option. Click OK and return to my computer.

    4. right click on your key USB. Select Format.

    5. Select NTFS from the drop-down list (you can also select FAT32).

    6. click on apply to format your drive to NTFS.

    Note: The pilot of formatting will destroy all data on the disk.

    If this does not work, try to create a new folder in the drive, and then copy the photos on this folder.

    Thank you

    If I open the folder, not through Lr, I can rename the file. Now, the problem disappeared. Maybe it was related to the DD. I removed and put back in place the protections in SD via the menu of my camera and the problem disappeared. Now, he works as usual. Amount and rename the files by LR. Thank you for your interest
