Run Check Disk, Takes Too Long
Apr 19, 2010I'm trying to run check disk but when I run it, it takes way-way too long. After an hour it was still only on 13% done, ad it was there for about 45 minutes already. At this rate, it would take about a week to go throuhg the whole disk.

Apr 9, 2009when I install x64 XP, i have no troubles, but when I try to install Vista od Seven, both x64, installation takes ages... it does install at the end, but it just takes too long (read: 2 hours). After instalation, it continues to be slow, both of the cores are at 100%. I've search for a while for a solution, but I've found different answers for the same problem, none of them works. Is there anyone with the same/simmilar configuration and has no troubles with vista?

Jan 18, 2010I have a Vista Business and a Vista Ultimate laptop. I'm trying to join a Windows 2008 domain. It takes forever for both machines to join the domain. If I let it sit it eventually does maybe 40 minutes later. Then when I log off it takes about the same amount of time to log off? It seems like it eventually joins the domain but takes a VERY long time. I don't have this same issue with Windows XP machines..

Folder Takes A Long Time To Show Files
Mar 20, 2010I have a folder with about 142 gigs of files in it and when I open it up, it takes sometimes 15 sec. before anything shows in the folder, while the little strip across the top of the folder does its "Progress" thing. Yes, I have Indexing on for that partition (this is a partition of my main hard drive; it is a 566g partition used only for archiving and it has 126gigs left).
What strikes me as particularly stupid about this is that it does the "progress" thing EVERY time, even if I close it and open it again 10 seconds later, it does not "remember" the indexing or whatever it just did! Is there any way to fix this? Seems absolutely ridiculous to have a super fast computer that can't find files in a folder without waiting 15 seconds!

View 4 Replies View RelatedExternal HDD, Cannot Rename Any File
Apr 21, 2009I have an external HDD - Western Digital Elements 500GB. I formatted it to NTFS a while back. The HDD itself is fine. Vista Ultimate x64 has serious issues though. I am administrator, yet suddenly I cannot rename any file. I can't press F2, I can't right-click and do Rename (it isn't even on the right click menu), it isn't on the toolbar menu, just gone.
I've been renaming files all week just fine. Now this. It happened last week sometime too. Also sometimes it randomly decides that I can't add or delete anything to the drive. When I go into the Security settings, it says Admin has full privilege. When I try to set full privilege on User, I get an error message for *every file on the disk* saying that the file is Write Protected. It is not. Well it shouldn't be. This is another problem. Vista decides that every file on there should be set to Read Only. I uncheck the box, and it re-checks it when I reopen it.
Rename A File Lose Track
Mar 26, 20091) Rename a file and you lose track of it due to the automatic sorting feature. In XP you controlled this behavior by hitting F5. Words cannot describe my frustration over this!
2) Quite often when you Alt+Tab to an Explorer window, the focus is gone and you must click the file area to be able to navigate with the keyboard.
3) The "Burn"-button and its friends cannot be removed. This is a travesty!
4) The new column-filter thingy is cool sometimes, but it should be possible to turn it off!
5) The new remaining feature is good, but it should be easier to select the file extension if wanted. I'd suggest hitting F2 a second time should select the entire filename. Where's the creativity?
6) When you open a folder the first file should be selected. Total Commander has done this correctly for years now. They never learn at MS?
7) The path found in the address field cannot be dragged and dropped, as in XP. This feature is especially useful when copying paths to a command prompt... sigh!
8) changed behavior from "up" to "back". Annoying, but OK since "Alt+Up" does what you want.
9) This stupid "Grade" column tends to pop up everywhere I have source code files.
Can Rename Or Move Can't Delete File
Sep 26, 2008I have two files (exe, probably installed from the internet) which windows Vista will not allow me to delete despite having an administrator's account. I can rename or move them but can't delete them. Also, and possibly related, my bin doesn't seem to be working correctly when I empty it it doesn't make that satisfying sound anymore and the icon still shows it as full?

View 8 Replies View RelatedLong File Names In Vista Nothing Works
Feb 21, 2009I'm running Vista Ultimate 32bit, and on one particular drive, I had backed up some files with extremely long names from a different system. The kind of stuff you find as temp files in the "Content.IE5" sub directory of "Temporary Internet Files."
Now, I'm trying to delete a parent directory where all these files are located. But Vista, in it's ultimate wisdom is giving me an error, indicating that it cannot delete these files becuse the overall path is too long - It suggested I move the files to a place with a "shorter path," but when I try, it won't let me do it for the same damned reason! The Source path is too long Nothing works.
Attempting to delete individual files, the parent directory, the "grand parent" directory all fail because Vista attempts to calculate/sum space and thus accesses each individual file, and fails because the "path is too long." When I try to rename individual files, it grays out the "rename" option. Is there any way I can either get rid of these files or bypass the "file length" warning so I can delete them? Formatting the drive is *not* an option. This is a SAN drive with lots of stuff on it and I'd never be able to off load it all.
