Mar 25, 2008Can anyone explain this: 3219. The screenshot shows the folder view (in Windows Explorer), and a directory listing (in a Command Line window). Why is the Explorer window showing different filenames than the command line window? It's not so much of an issue, as I'm currently completing a scheduled backup of this drive using Nero Burning ROM, and will be formatting it soon.

Mar 12, 2009I am writing to this Forum in desperation because I cannot find any way to get in touch by email with Windows Live OneCare even though I am a paid subscriber. I have NOT had a good experience of MS tech support. After 18 months of endless problems with Windows VISTA Ultimate Edition V 6001 I now wish to reformat my computer and get RID of it altogether, replacing it with System 7 for which I have a serial number and a beta download from the recent Microsoft online download offer.
As VISTA seems to have eleminated DOS altogether and the old FDisk command doesn't work from a command line start, I have tried to reformat from my OEM Vista Ultimate Edition re-installation DVD which I am certain used to offer me reformat and partitioin delete as the first options but that no longer seems to offer me any reformat option at all and not only instists only on re-installing VISTA (which I no longer want) but leaves the old installation in a directory renamed "WindowsOld" which VISTA will then not allow me to delete....
Command Line Ren (Rename) Command Broken?
May 17, 2008I'm having trouble with the REN command with wild cards as used from the command prompt. For example, in the REN command help, it says: "For example, if you had files that are named smitha.doc, smithb.doc, and smithc.doc, you could use the ren smith*.doc smythe*.doc command. All file names automatically show the new spelling, and are renamed smythea.doc, smytheb.doc, and smythec.doc.".........

Command Line Switch Exe Embeding?
Sep 9, 2009I use a program called "Texmod" for a number of games to modify their textures. One game I am recently playing, however, requires that a command line switch be used to run the game client exe directly. Texmod doesn't support command line switching through it's own, so the game client refuses to work. Is there anyway (via Windows options or a third-party application) I can embed/hardcode the command line switch into the exe permanatly, so if the exe is ran, it'll always force load the command line switch?

May 18, 2010I've read the Help file in BGInfo - but can't figure out how to use Command Line Parameters. When I click on my startup icon, I would like to invoke certain parameters. The line I came up with is: "C:Program FilesBGInfoBgInfoBginfo.exe /timer:99 /popup /taskbar /rtf:C:DATABGINFO /nolicprompt" Obviously, this is wrong. My Target line reads: "C:Program FilesBGInfoBgInfoBginfo.exe". My Start in line reads: "C:Program FilesBGInfoBgInfo"
what, exactly, should go in each line. I would also like to add lines of information to BGInfo - but that question will come after I get the above working.
GUI Vs Command Line Disc Defragmenter
Aug 22, 2009I bought an Acer Aspire 6530 last week. I noticed whenever I go to the GUI disk defragmenter (My Computer>Right click C:>Properties>Tools>Degfragmentation) that it ALWAYS says I need to defrag the drive even after I did did one. But when I do the command line defrag (Start>All Programs>Accessories, says I don't need to. This happens everytime even after I run the defragmenter. So why does
the GUI one says I need to while the command line one says I dont. Isnt the GUI and Command Line one basically the same?

Documenting The Command Line That UAC Attempts To Launch
May 21, 2009Is there a way to set UAC to capture or log the entire command line of a program including all switches that is requesting elevation? I have an unknown potentially suspicious program that is requesting elevation and I am unable to see the entire command line or path to the binary to investigate it. To be safe, I have declined running the program, and briefly examined the Windows event logs but have not been able to find the details I am looking for.
As a temporary work-around, I am going to connect via remote desktop to take a screenshot of the UAC prompt, but this only gives me part of the command since the display dialog cuts of the text.

16bit Command Line Application Ignores Keyboard Input
Feb 19, 2009Our company has a 16bit command line application that works fine under XP and was working fine under Vista until, we believe, service pack 1 was installed. The program works initially to accept keyboard input but seems to ignore any keyboard input after a few minutes of the PC being left with no activity. We have tested this on Windows Vista and Windows 7 and have exactly the same issue. We have created a very basic program that would allow you to type characters and exit when Enter is pressed. I have narrowed the time delay before the program freezes down to about 4 minutes of inactivity. This will cause the program to not respond to any key presses on the keyboard and has to be closed by clicking on the x in the top right corner.
I am wondering if anyone else is having this issue and also if there is a fix for this? (Perhaps a registry key timeout setting?) Below is a copy of the source code we used for our simple program. The program is written in Microsoft C version 5. We are using an Int 16h Function 00h BIOS call to read the keyboard character.
Starting To Like When This Happened: Open Certain Control Panel Functions From The RUN Command Line Or Through The MMC Console Itself
Jan 18, 2009I've been getting this error message when I try to open certain control panel functions from the RUN command line or through the MMC console itself. Other functions like performance information, user accounts and parental controls don't respond when clicked. Windows update might flash up the beginnings of a window for a split second but wont load. I've got the update icon on my task bar saying it cant update. Other than some key function being inaccessible the PC runs fine (apart form Firefox has started crashing out every now again) I can install software ok.
I've run the SVG /scannow thing and it found no problem Its my home PC sp I am setup as administrator. This problem is effecting another vanilla admin account AND the hidden Admin account. I've virus scanned in safe mode. System restore went through the motions but after it had restarted the PC it said it couldn't actually restore........
See Files In Command Prompt Not In Windows Explorer
Feb 20, 2009HD crashed. Before I reformatted it, I went into the Command Prompt option from the Windows RE and copied all the files and folders to a usb harddrive. (I used the robocopy command from the command prompt.) Now, when I connect the hd to another machine, I cannot see and of the files or folders that I copied in Windows Explorer. I know the files are there becaue I can still see them from a command prompt and Windows (Vista) even reports that there are 27GB used on the disk. How can I see these files in Windows so that I can copy them back?

Mar 20, 2007When you are in explorer and are manually typing in a long folder path or at a command prompt navigating through many directories, below are two cool tips that will help you save time.
The first is one that I have been using for years. When working at a command prompt, instead to typing in the full text of an item, just hit the tab key to bring up full items. For example, say I want to change the directory to the Windows folder. At a command prompt I would type in CD wind and then hit the tab key and "Windows" will automatically show up. Think of the tab key as a kind of auto complete for DOS. This same technique also works in Windows Explorer.....
Internet Explorer Has Stopped Working: 'Internet' Icon
Apr 1, 2008After fighting to get rid of a Trojan horse virus, I am missing the internet browser. E-mail works OK. Clicking 'Internet' icon gets me the message 'Internet Explorer has stopped working:". I tried 'restore' but it is not working either. I get the message 'an unspecified error occurred during system restore'. I scanned with AVG and the files it scanned are clean. I have a 'restore' DVD made by the computer vendor but when I stick it in the CD drive nothing happens. The computer is a 1 year old ACER with VISTA home premium preinstalled. How do I proceed from here? I have no idea what to do.
View 4 Replies View RelatedInternet Explorer 8 In Vista Causes Windows Explorer
Mar 21, 2009I wasn't quite sure if IE8 was the culprit, but it became apparent once I removed it. Internet Explorer 8 interferes with the functionality in Windows Explorer for Vista. Say for example: With IE8 installed, open up "Computer". Close it, then open it again. It should be instantaneous. But its not. A window will take over to 10 seconds to show its initial contents. Once its open though, its very fast because the instance is already running. But once it closes it will take another 10 seconds to open again. Internet Explorer 8 itself opens up very slowly even after the first opening. Can any Vista users verify this?
1. Install IE8
2. Go: Start > click Computer
3. Close that Window.
4. Repeat step 2.
Is it an instantaneous opening or does the window take more than 5 seconds to populate? Repeat those steps with opening Internet Explorer. Is it the same? If so, welcome to the club. Does Microsoft have any way to report this bug to developers?
Internet Explorer (64 Bit)
Nov 11, 2009A freind of mine is having a few problems with her laptop..
She has a link in the start menu that says (internet explorer 64 bit)
This is what she clicks to go on the internet, Now when she visits or clicks on links, she will sometimes get a message that she needs to install flash player.
She already has the latest flash player installed, but apparently this does not work on this "internet explorer 64 bit"
I diden't even know there was a 64 bit internet explorer.
And it goes on to say something like flash player is for 32 bit browsers, for flash player to work on 64 bit browsers search online for help, or it directs you to microsoft help and support.
I don't really like to go messing around on someone elses laptop
so i thought i would just ask to see if there is one thing i could follow to fix this problem..
Internet Explorer (7) Won't Run
Mar 8, 2010Internet explorer (7) won't run. I found that the IEXPLORER.exe is not in the directory. I have tried to install IE8 but it fails on configuring every time. Same happens when I try to install the cummulative IE7 updates (she's not good at installing updates). Everytime I try any kind of install or update concerned with IE it fails at the configuration phase. Other problems are that she can no longer use windows messenger. This connects but terminates in failure almost instantly.
I've ran a Norton Security scan which has found 144 tracking cookies but nothing more. The fix now button produces fail to lauch link which may well have something to do with the IE problem. Google Chrome is installed and works OK. I don't know what the last good restart point is. I've tried going into the repair feature on windows live essentials through the programs and features in the control panel but I just get a fatal error 0x8007007. Can't even look at internet options in control panel. That won't open either.
