Notepad Saving Failing
Mar 23, 2008
If I edit the file in notepad and try to save I get this message: "Cannot create the C:usersathandocumentshtmlfilename.html file. Make sure the path and filename are correct".
"Right-click on the Documents file and choose properties. Select customize Use this folder as template: All Items Apply this template to subfolders" This list a fix for when located in specific area but for myself these files are not located it the documents folder and this fix does not work. If you feel this post would be better served elsewhere (security, network sharing)

I inadvertantly changed a .bat file association to open with Notepad and didn't uncheck the box for it to just run once under Notepad. Now I need that ..bat file to be able to run and can't get rid of the Notepad association.

I use an ancient program to replace Windows native notepad. It is called 'Notpad'. Imagine typing that into a search, you get a suggestion that you meant 'Notepad' and no relevant info.The program is discontinued. However, it worked fine in Viats x64.
Until a few days ago. I cannot execute the program. It shows up in task manager. Clicking .txt files does nothimg. When I delete the notpad.exe and replace it with the original from zip, nothing.

I have a program that installs as a subfolder of the Program Files (x86) folder. Inside the main folder of the application is a file, SpecDat.xxx. The application, when run, needs to change this file. If I run this application from an administrator account, it comes back with a Error '53': File Not Found error. After some extended debugging by both me and the author, we discovered it wasn't updating this file.
When I tried to update this file manually using Notepad, Notepad wouldn't save it either. After more research, I ran the application by right-clicking and selecting "run as an administrator". Now it works, even though I'm always running it from an administrator account.

Went here and tried all the suggestions but the last one: Listed under "Registry Export Not Inserting Into Registry" dated 9/12/08. I need help with this - have tried all the suggestions here with the same results as James. I got as far as "Open Regedit.exe, from the File menu, choose Import and select the REG association fix." and cannot figure out how to do this.

This is insane. SP1 is installed and gave me no problems but now I have been reverted back to hell. Even with no UAC enabled I can't rename C:Windowsotepad.exe to notepad.default.exe so I can replace it with NotePad++. So what's next if I am not an Administrator when logged in?

I am running Windows Vista Home premium 64bit with 8gb ram and an hp c309a printer. My problem is that vista take a long time to print even just a 1 word paper using notepad. Also when i right click the printer in the printer folder it also take time to open the properties, aprox 3 minutes. So if i try to print it takes 3 minutes just to open the tab to click print and to select the printer i wish to use. The c309a is connected by usb cable, and i have tried re-installing the latest drivers and firmware for the printer as well as different usb cables and each of my usb ports. Yet for some reason there is a long 3+ minute pause when trying to print. I have also tried using the network feature and I still have same trouble. Also i have checked to make sure print spooling is on in services. HP has a utility to check for issues for both network and for usb, and the printer passes each test fine. I have done so many full uninstalls and installing of the software as well as the cable changes it is driving me nuts. I have been google'ing for days and days and have had no luck in fixing this issue. One last comment every time i try to print the applications I am using freeze for the 3+ minutes and the window application shows "application not responding", but after 3+ minutes i can finally select the printer and hit print, then at that point it freezes again for about 2 minutes and then prints. I have run multiple virus scans and multiple spyware detection programs and have also run online virus scans using bitdefend and trendmicro as well and i have no virus or spyware. I have also ran "hijackThis" and been told my system appears clean.

Sometimes, I hear noises coming from it, not just the normal spinning of the disk, but it kinda sounds like your repetitively tapping your keys on a keyboard.Or a laptop parking it's head.I have google'd it, and some of the other clues are random BSODS.
I can sometimes reproduce the sound, when I click on something that needs usage of the HDD.My the send and receive times haven't been changed since I got the computer.
The drive is a "640GB SATA 7200RPM" "Western Digital Caviar Blue". Are these drives normally loud? It feels like it's running a little warm.If it is the heat, could I just plop a heatsink on it from an old video card?

Also, I am not sure if this is just normal HDD noise, because on my old computer, my case was always closed, and on my new one, I always have the side off when using it.

A Windows update could not be installed (Error Code 42D9):
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 3
So, I downloaded it from:
Download details: SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP3
I installed it, but the update was still showing and it still wanted to install the update - but I thought that's what I just did manually! Why did it still want to install it?
I hid the update from the Windows Update screen.
The next day, two updates came in - security updates for:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 and
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2
The update for Service Pack 3 installed successfully but the update for Service Pack 2 failed (Error Code 733F).
I hid the Service Pack 2 update, but it keeps coming back!
What am I supposed to do?

Can download Vista Home Prem Service Pack1, but after an hour plus of installing, it fails... I had a guy from MS's online chat-room taking control of my PC for two hours and he still didnt get it installed. I read the forums here, and followed some instrictions emailed by another MS tech helper... which then l;ead me into hours more messing around because they said I had to rename a file, but Vista says I don't have permission (so I then spent another two hours following various "take ownership" instructions, and that didnt work, so I rebooted into safe mode and did it again and I still can't rename the file, so can't complete the instructions...

I am using Win XP Pro and just recently my computer was hit by a power surge.killed the power supply.I have recently replaced it with an OCZ 500Watt supply and its up again. But ever since then, its been running a little strange. When I open up my computer,and browse through a couple folders,explorer.exe "encounters a problem" and restarts itself. The computer was running totally fine before this power surge.. its my everyday web design computer so I'm on it almost 24/7.It seems to possibly happen when I copy/paste files. Besides this,it seems like the HD "thinks" a lot more than it used to.I'm kind of leaning towards the fact that my new power supply fan is a lot quieter,if not silent,compared to my other one.. so I hear the HD more than I used to.I HAVE run a memory test on both 1GB DDR2 sticks AND a Seagate HD test on my two maxtor hard drives. Everything passed with flying colors.

My computer has been SUPER SLOW for the past few days, I've restarted it, turned off bloatware processes, and still no luck... It will be a complete system lock up, where the whole computer will stop responding for at most 30 seconds, then if I click while it's locked up, nothing will happen. Then when the computer comes out of the freeze, I'll hear the computer beeping, like the type of beeps from the bios, not from the OS.
Also, when the computer does this, the Hard Drive light will be constantly on, it'll try to read or write for a few seconds then stop, and repeat the process. And then it'll start to do its crap and the computer won't be locked up. One last thing... While typing this, my computer was locking up, and I'd still type, and nothing would appear on the screen, until the computer started to respond again.

Problem 1) one of my HDD's are failing. The noise it's been making ie clicking, whirring has been steadily getting worse. The problem here is that I can't tell which one of my three drives is the culprit.
Problem 2) Blank monitor. I first noticed this little doozy a couple of weeks ago when I removed a second monitor. Upon restart, the original monitor stayed in power save mode while the PC kept booting up as normal. That too has slowly become worse. It now requires me to kill the power and keep restarting until it turns on. It's not the monitor, because it works fine with other devices.
Problem 3) Freezing. This is where I'm a little stumped as to who the culprit is. Ocassionaly the PC just freezes, requiring a hard reset. Sometimes after a hard reset, that's when the monitor issue happens......

i have all these temp files in the temp folder and they keep appearing and multiplying. The first time i found them the folder was near 8gb and i deleted all of them no problem. Now they are back again and it's getting close to 4gb but i can't delete them this time.
I couldn't find anything on google. The only two things that came up was something to do with some Offline Explorer Pro program and the other one was that some guys hard drive was failing. One of my drive did recently fail on me but it's not in the computer anymore.

I have WinRar, when I try to extract .exe files it gives me an error saying "! Cannot execute". Now before you say it is Winrar's fault you are wrong. An admin said that 7-Zip is what I should be using. But, guess what happens when I use 7-Zip? Another error. Let me address this one: "could not find this item" When I extract. Now, is Vista blocking this in some sort of way?

Shortly after installing Vista SP1 I have started to get message "a drive in Raid 0 is failing". This sounds bad. I have tried running checkdisk on my hard drive but it does not show any problems. If I reinstall the OS from scratch, will it fix the problem? Or is this a hardware problem?

I started experiencing glitch graphics that kinda looked like someone had splashed paint all over my screen... I tried driver updates and the usual (virus malware scans ect) but no difference was made. So I tried a fresh install but this still seemed to make no difference. when I got this graphics glitch it wasn't just the graphics that went wrong since it seemed to also hang windows, forcing a manual reboot but with the same only to happen again on the next cold or warm boot. It did puzzle me since it seemed only to happen with anything graphical i.e windows or the Bios splash screen but did not seem to glitch out on Bios boot text or even through the windows install screens....
I was quite stuck to as what the cause was, although I had the feeling my graphics card was failing. I didn't have a spare to test and it was a late Saturday evening and had to wait until Monday morning for the stores to open..... (thank goodness i had my old Pentium 4 in the cupboard ) Well Monday morning arrived and with the frustration of having used my old P4 with its ultra slowness and block graphics from its old AGP ATI 9200SE I was very eager to dash off to the shops So I headed off to the local PC repair shop armed with my trusty iPhone loaded with the pictures shown below to ask for their professional advice and low and behold it was confirmed..... my poor BFG 9800GX2 was on its death bed (tip always follow warranties, register and keep your receipts) Now armed with my new and confirmed information I was happy enough to splash out on a new graphics card..... back home i fitted my nice new shiny Gigabyte 9800GT Silent Cell GV-N98TSL-1GI - GIGABYTE Product - Graphics Accelerator - Overview and as expected my PC was back up and running once again

I just installed Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 Intregated, and when I ran updates I failed at installing one update; 'KB938371'. I did some searching, and it seems this is only for those who wants to install SP1 via the Windows Update Service? If thats the case, why does it show? And if that is not the case, why doesnt it install? I've tried to reboot, then installing only that update. Downloading the update and executing, downloaded -> rebooted -> installing.

I have a 250 gig backup drive which is now full and my weekly backup is failing. the drive I am backing up shows only 133 gig used in properties why has the back up exceeded the total disk usage i am backing up. The file structure on backupo drive shows only one backup set dated 2007-08-04 within which are the weekly folders for my backups each of which contains a varying number of zip files. I am reluctant to just delete and start over but cannot see a way of managing backed up data.

WindowsXp was the best OS ever, after a few registry patches (e.g. notorious failing Search by file contents), a few tweaks, and in my case total COLORS customization, and in Classic mode, in the end it wasd the best.it took several days to customize, and one. With Vista, it's a dead end. Explorer forgets views. Mail needs a fix before it can open doc, pdf, etc attachments form within mail instead of saving first Black background or COlorSchemes in egenral is a problem if you dare to select it............

Okay, I've heard about this horrible update and how it refuses to work, but I went around searching and found no one with the same problem as I did. So here is what happened:
1. I found it through updating, tried to update it, doesn't work (downloaded 9.5 mb, but failure on installation).
2. I manually downloaded from the Microsoft website, installed it, doesn't work (says install failed).
3. I closed everything, including anti-virus (Avast) and firewall. Installed it, doesn't work (same error message).
4. I reboot to try all the above steps again x2, doesn't work (still same error message).

my computer has been failing to enter and stay in standby mode. I had set the power button to initiate hibernate, sleep button to initiate sleep and close the lid to turn the computer off. All was working fine and settings are all as they should be, to my knowlege nothing has been changed but when I press the power button or try to enter hibernate through the start menu, the computer enters hibernate and then instantly starts back up. I am able to turn the competer off completely but no luck with hibernate. System restore is failing to work also so I am not able to set the system back to an earlier state.
