  • How can I copy restored c:\documents and settings\myusername\favorites\bookmarks at tab bookmarks Firefox bookmarks?

    My computer crashed and I had to restore it to its condition of purchase (2008). I had backed up all my data on Mozy. After the restoration of 12 GB of files, the 'Favorites' folder is in C:\Documents and Settings\myusername\favorites. The old shortcuts are in the folder, but I can't have them at my bookmarks Firefox tab. How can I do this?

    You can't do it this way. Those are the Favorites of IE and Firefox can't handle these files. You need to export your IE Favorites in bookmarks.htm format so that you then import this file into Firefox.

    In Internet Explorer:

    File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file

    then in Firefox:

    Bookmarks > show all bookmarks-> import and backup - import HTML... = HTML file

  • Change config son location "Document and Settings" another location

    I'm working ICT manager of ass in a welcoming and many users like to use Firefox. The problem is that we have a manager of quota installed on all systems with a maximum profile size limit to 30 MB. Society does not, in any circumstances, increase this size limit. This creates the problem that users who don't not Firefox installed bigger profiles and can not work more.

    The main issue in the present is: we can set up Firefox so that the user's settings (and other parts of Firefox) are not written in the "C:\Documents and Settings\ [user]", but the other (still available to the user) location?

    Another option would be like a portable version of Firefox (as Google Chrome Portable) but I do not think that Mozilla has done a portable version? (supported by Mozilla itself and only storage full al necessary files in a local folder, such as the user settings)

    Firefox uses two places in Documents and Settings on XP for the profile folder.

    In the Application data for the main profile and the other in local contexts for the cache and the database of phishing protection.

    This second location is also within this disk quota?

    You can only make Firefox use a profile to a different location if you run Firefox by specifying the location of the folder in the shortcut on the desktop Firefox profile, but which can cause problems if you click on a link in another program and Firefox is not running.

    Otherwise, you will need to prepare a profiles.ini file that points to a location (empty folder, this folder must exist) on the hard disk to use for the Firefox profile.

  • I have 7 user folders in C:\Documents and Settings and a single user account. How can I assign the right folder to my account and get rid of the others?

    Recently I got a video card break down. Repair technology installed a new and created a new Documents and Settings folder, which is now using my user account. I don't want these settings, I want the 'old'.

    Please write the command NET USER (at a command prompt) and report the output of the command.

    To find out what profile folder the user uses the command DEFINE the USER.

    To get a list of all users and their profile folders use the script VBS here: shows all the SIDS of the user with the path to copy and paste the script (in the box) to a Notepad file and then save it with a .vbs extension and run it.

    Set up your computer so that it uses an automatic connection, and when you get to the login screen just enter the user name and password of the account you want to use, and you should still be able to open a session with him.  To change the automatic logon settings type control userpasswords2 in the box run from the start menu and select (put a check mark) the option "users must enter a user name and password...". ».  If you use the 'Welcome' screen, you can press Ctrl + Alt + Delete twice to get the login screen and you can then enter the user name and password.

    To remove an unwanted user account and its associated user files use the applet in the control panel user accounts, don't forget about your actions before you delete a user account and its files, it is a one-way street and destruction will be permanent.

    Hi Jason,

    1. to confirm, do you use the Windows XP operating system?

    2. do you get an error message? If Yes, what is the full error message?

    It seems that we have to clean the unnecessary files and check if the drive works properly or not.

    I suggest you perform the steps.

    Method 1: Use the Disk Cleanup tool and check if that helps you.

    See also:

    How to automate the disk cleanup tool in Windows XP

    Rerun defragment and check.

    Method 2:

    Alternatively, you can scan the hard disk for errors. You may need to run the scan several times and make sure that the disc is clean.

    Reference:

    How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP

    Chkdsk

    You can opt chkdsk/r

    Note: He performs a comprehensive check, even if the drive is not marked for chkdsk to run. This parameter is none of the changes on the disk.

    Note: Running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data can be lost.

    Once you have finished the cleaning disc and chkdsk, you can perform defragment to see if it solved the problem.

    Hope this information helps. Response with status so that we can help you.

  • All Windows XP Documents and Settings folder names caps

    We use XP in a business environment. Recently, we have noticed that some user in "Documents and Settings" folders on a particular machine have changed randomly to be appointed with all caps. This causes problems with their profiles. What could have caused this?

    In addition, some files have changed to say the username followed by a point and our domain name. Do not know what is happening. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

    Windows keeps cases in the names of files and folders, but when you access to files and folders, it is case-insensitive (i.e. upper/lower case is not serious).

    Records of the changing profile of user name directly to a username followed by a point and a domain name, on the other hand, comes following a corrupt user profile.  Corrupted user profiles usually occur as a result of (or comes from) the corruption of the file system.  Corruption of system files may result in the capitalization of the problems that you notice.  To recover a corrupted user profile, choose your method of the following:

  • In XP Documents and Settings, are files under Admin, default user, all users, and duplicate files etc?

    I see in Windows XP under Documents and Settings administrator, all users, default user and owner records. This is a duplication of files? I'm trying to clean up my hard drive and I would like to have just a structure, such as the owner or the administrator. Can I get rid of all the others and save a workspace of dick? How do I do that?

    * original title - more disk space? *

    N ° don't get rid of one of these data structures, or later, you'll be sorry.

    For everyday use, you should use the profile of 'owner '.  All your documents, music, images and other data must be different subdirectories to the title of owner.

    The administrator is a built-in account for emergency use administrator privileges (for example, if your daily profile becomes corrupted).  Probably, you don't see administrator on the Welcome screen.

    Every user is an account that is used to share data between different users.  If there is only a single user defined on your computer, there should be very little in every user account in the "My Documents" of this profile part, but some applications that you have installed may have placed hidden files in different folders in the profile all users.

    Default user is a model that is used to create new user profiles.

    If you are interested in which is placed on your hard drive, download and run JDiskReport.

    If you fear that you progress low hard drive space, there are a few things you can do, but all of them are essentially temporary measures.  If you're really under out of space on your hard drive, you can buy a bigger hard drive.

    Run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr.exe > OK)
    Adjust system restore space
    Disable the Indexing Service

  • Remove temporary files from the local disk c/documents and settings/user/localsettings/temp name

    Remove temporary files from the local disk c/documents and settings/user/localsettings/temp name

    By definition, this folder should contain only the elements you don't need.  If I understand correctly, this temporary folder is a place where temporary files are stored during program facilities and the facilities.  However, I have seen references other sites to help saying some programs can store folders and files.

    I do my own temporary file elsewhere, name it accordingly and move all the files in the temp folder to the new folder. Use your computer normally for a while, and if nothing complains about missing files, you have a good indication that none of the moved files are important and should be safe to delete.
