Inspiron And Username Folders Empty
Aug 5, 2009
I just discovered that my Username and Inspiron Folders are empty, with a blank folder picture as icon. When I click on either one of them I get the "Open with" scenario. Yet by right-clicking I am able to access "Properties". According to it the folders were modified on July 5 and 6 respectively and not by me, of course. Is there a way to correct this and, if so, how? Have no idea what could have caused it and can live with it, if necessary. Nothing else is effected.

I am looking for a program or a windows explorer addon that will search a folder I indicate, and delete all the empty sub-folders. I am cleaning up my music folder and found out that I have over a thousand empty folders in it due to old music I had deleted. I don't want to have to go through and delete each one manually. I don't have that kind of spare time. Programmers, if you can write a plugin for this

I m a newcomer to Vista and to make things more difficult for myself, I am using the Portuguese version yet I am not overly familiar with this language. I have Vista Home Premium. After I have read my email and deleted from my folders, the folder view
still shows a number of unread items. If I close and re-open Windows Mail the figures disappear. I have looked through some recent posts and see mention of ghost messages in Deleted Items, but in my case this shows up in all mail folders. I also saw that it was asked a few times whether an anti-virus program is running, so if this is relevant I am running AVG Internet Security 7.5.

Recently when logging on to my e-mail account I lost all my saved messages, the only one left were in the inbox. Now every time I log on Windows Mail generates a "Recovered Messages" folder filled with lots of empty folders and no messages.

I bought a Dell Inspiron in June 2008, with Vista SP1 factory installed;pgraded now to SP2. After many fruitless attempts at running W7 Upgrade Advisor, it tells me that the Hard Drive Controller is incompatible, and furthermore that I need 15GB free disc space, but I have only 14GB. I have the following hard discs:
I have more than 800GB available. I have not seen any mention anywhere of others getting a message like the one I got. Has anyone encountered anything like this?

I am the owner of Dell Inspiron 1420 with NVidia Geforce 1420 128 mb. I've installed Vista Ultimate x64 with all the drivers automatically detect and windows functioning normally. But the only problem I am facing now is the graphics memory which is important for me to be able to play games which requires 256 mb graphics memory.
My vista uses approx. 1872 mb of shared memory which is absolutely crazy leaving me with 128 mb of graphics memory. Before, I got 256 mb of graphics memory in windows xp and i can play almost any latest games. I've also wondered, is there any way to change the graphics memory size or the shared memory size? Even i've updated my BIOS, still it wont allow me to change it. "Vista Ultimate x64 is the fastest and and stable among any other Vistas!"

My 1 year old Dell Inspiron 518 came with Vista Home PremiumX64, and the warranty expired a week ago. They won't talk to me without charge.
I have a blue screen. One error was a Stop 0x00000050, Fatal System Error c0000221 - Unknown Hard ErrorSystemRootSystem32
tdll.dll. Another blue screen error read, 0xc004D301 Security Processor reported the trusted data store was tampered.
I was able to go under the Boot Menu and run a diagnostic. It said Error Code 2000-0123 (Memory Integrity Test Failed).
I haven't been able to get Windows to load at all, nothing I try is working, and I don't want to spend money for servicemen to come in. Anything I can do that's not too involved?

I have a DELL Inspiron 1525 Laptop Computer. I shut down irregularly yesterday, and now, when I try to start it up, I get a message stating:
Windows Error Recovery
You have two options:
Launch Startup Repair (Recommended)
Launch Windows Normally
When I try either option it takes FOREVER, and I never get back into Windows Vista. With the first option it just brings up a progress status bar like it is doing something, then the screen goes blank (perhaps a timeout on the laptop). For the second option it just brings up the progress status bar, and it seems like it is doing something....but after hours it is still showing that progress bar.

Anybody know if the ATI Radeon HD3650 PCI-E will fit into the Inspiron 531s ? I would probably have to find a better power supply of course. If not, does anyone know any good graphics cards that would fit?

I have been asked to look at a problem with a computer at our local social club. It's a Dell Inspiron 530. It was not showing anything to do with Networking in the device manager so I went to the BIOS and enabled the network.
When I restarted Vista this time the network device was showing in the device manager but that there were no drivers installed for it. If I can manage to locate the Vista installation CD would that help me to get it working? If I cannot locate the original CD would it be okay to use my own CD instead?

Awhile back I was given instructions on how to change the folder standard green folders to new pink folders. Well, my computer crashed out and I had to get a new hard drive. I tried to follow the instructions from the previously solved thread, but I can not find the "desktop.ini". When I go to the users folder inside my choices are Administrator and Public and I can not find the "desktop.ini" file. I have windows vista.

My problem is that I have a legal copy of goldmine 5.7 that I installedon this new laptop.In the installation there was a screen to type in my username and passord to access goldmine in the future....and I left them both blank.Now i cannot get into my goldmine program and when I uninstall it and reinstall it does not give me the opportunity to pick a new username and password. Vista has stored some default username.

Just recently bought a new HP PC which comes with XP, I then selected not to backup and proceeded to install vista which was successful. Unfortunately it asks for a username and a password which I do not have! Playing FarCry 2 will have to be put on hold for the time being, Oh well, c'est la vie

I was just wondering, because I want to stop my brothers from going on the internet without a password and username that I can change. I got this idea from the school computers, but they are Windows XP. Does anybody know if you can do it on Vista Basic?

My technical help reset my username and password for Windows Mail. Today it asked me to confirm them, which I didn't know, and he doesn't remember. How do I reset so I can send out emails? So far I've been able to receive but not send in absence of offering the proper security info.

Windows Mail worked correctly for 1 year. I did not have the "password won't
save" problem at all.
McAfee Security Center was uninstalled and debris removal was performed
because I dislike McAfee (which came installed on the the computer.)
Avast Pro was installed because I like it.
Now, I have the Windows Mail "password won't save" problem. When I look at
the Account Properties, there's nothing in the password box. When I enter
the password and click Remember Password, check email, I get the popup
requesting username password. If I enter the info there, mail is received
and can be sent. Next time, it asks for username/pw again.
I have deleted the account, closed Windows Mail, recreated the account -
same problem.

I use Windows Mail and have had no trouble until now. When I try to access my email, a window appears asking for my username and password. After I type in the correct info, the same window appears and asks for username and password, again and again without allowing me to send or receive email. What is going on and how can I resolve this issue?

I have registered on this website and have not been able to log onto the site for which I've registered. I can access the site but when I attempt to use my username and password Windows Vista does not recognize the username and password I entered. I've reset the password and this program (Windows Vista) does not allow it to work for some reason. I can access the site and log on from any other computer but not my own computer. I have deleted the browsing history in an attempt to remove any stored info on the pc but that doesn't seem to work either.
