    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).

  • Flash ReadySHARE disappeared from network drives

    Before I could access flash drives connected to my WNDR4500 (v2) by clicking on 'Network' under 'Computer' on my Windows 7 desktop. Since yesterday, the flashdrives have disappeared in this place. I can access it by opening Netgear genius, clicking ReadySHARE and then clicking on the address of the router. Flash drives appear so and I can copy/write normally. It is a cumbersome procedure. That's happened? I made no changes to my system, other than Windows updates to routine.

    It turns out that the solution is really much simpler. Instead of addressing the situation through the computer or network, enter Netgear genius, simply click through the ReadySHARE choices and click on the address of the router. When the flash player appears, right-click on it and select "Map network drive." Select any available drive letter and the flash player becomes immediately available under computer.

  • Why Airport Extreme disappeared from Airport utility, after adding to the mac feature?

    10.11 OS, with the version of the airport, 6.3.6.  I can see is no longer my Airport Extreme Airport utility after I activated to Mac. I have Airport Extreme base ME91899/A and two Airport Express units model A1392 bolt torque.  I set up the Airport Extreme unit and the network first.  I was able to see the Airport utility. I then added each airport express unit. They were also visible. Then I added back the ability of Mac to the Airport extreme unit, and now it is no longer visible in the Airport utility.  Why is this?

    Apple has problems much time with iCloud. Turn off Back to My Mac across your airport routers and then shut down and restart the entire network.

    We will have to wait for a fix from Apple.

  • Is it possible to recover hundreds of mails that have disappeared from my Inbox after it has been quarantined today by Norton Internet Security?

    I received an infected email this morning which resulted in Norton Internet Security quarantine inbox. All received emails are gone now from the Inbox (with the exception of two who apparently arrived just before the infected message).
    (1) is it possible to recover the E-mails lost without re-infection of the Inbox?
    (2) how can I avoid this happening again? Until today, the infected emails have simply removed by Norton Internet Security on arrival without all the previous messages being lost in the Inbox.
    I would be very grateful for help.

    you force Nortons of UN-setting in the file quarantine.
    Then, you create an exception for Norton analyzes the folders that contain your Thunderbird profile, so it is not repeated.

    Be aware that the infection is not as severe as the cure. Maybe you can find someone to Semantec to explain how an email in Thunderbird can infect anything unless you physically open an infected attachment that Norton should catch when it is written in the temp folder before opening.

    I lost a lot of time talking to corporate cretins to Semantec and they charge just "this is another line of defense" when asked for more details. Why, because they can simply justify not e-mail Scanner in any other terms. Enjoy it servers little or not by the challenges of usability and convenience.

    This "mail" was written on your drive hard until Semantec has managed to make a mess of things. It's a little late don't you think saying "you have an infection. Do they expect also for stuff in your browser to be written on the disc? You bet they do. Where is the preventive surveillance to data transmissions that prevents infection before it is written on your drive?

  • Downloads disappear from the box after completion. (2nd try, I've screwed to the top of the first - sorry)

    When I perform a download from the Internet, download box opens and we see the download progress, however the empty box once the download is complete, (pdf or exe files). I now find the file do something with it as run it. It is never used to be this way, box downloads always showed made this day. .exe files downloads and pdf files to a file temp deeply in my user folder string. I guess what they get cleaned when the computer is turned off. I would like to permanently save all the downloaded files, unless deliberately removed by myself. PDF files will open in Nitro, (that I prefer far either Foxit that me have a hard time and the larger Acrobat Reader). How can I return to the original from the downloads area operation?

    After update to OS X, I noticed, that some applications work only not after reboot (for example Google Drive or iMessages). In 'Preferences system-> users & groups-> login items' list contain only one point (dropbox), but it should contain other applications.

    I add it manually all needed apps, system restart. Apps launch during the connection. But in "Login Items" once again only one item - dropbox. After the second restart - only launch of dropbox.

    Why custom connection list disappears after reboot?

    ☞ Is the dialog box display "You can read and write" in the section sharing & permissions?

    Article in the General ☞, is the locked box checked?

    ☞ What is the modification date?

    If you do not read and write access to the item, change the settings as directed here. Note, however, that if a file has incorrect access settings, probably others as well. If the item is locked, unlock it.

    I try to include a link in Illustrator and whenever I do it, not only he doesn't look pleasant with the image, but it no longer appears in the links Panel.
