Delete File From Print Job List
May 7, 2008
I try to delete a print job file from printer spool opening the printer icon besides the system clock, spool driver says "deleting" but never really delete! Normally I need to reboot to really eliminate the file from the list and print a new file. Sometimes this doest work and the printer, after reboot, try to print that file. There are another way to eliminate a file from the list IMMEDIATLY? Maybe deleting the temp file or something like that. (Windows Vista Home Premium)

When I open a folder with a list of files for all View Options, the files are not listed in proper ascending sequence. I indexed the files to make sure that indexing may not be the factor in the Sort By Name not working properly. After the files were indexed, clicked the Sort By Name item in the View menu item, and the files are stilled not sorted porperly. Has anyone encountered this similar problem ? I suspect this may be a bug in Windows Vista File System. The folder had 87 files in it.

Not sure how to name this but you know when you compose a new message, and start typing an address and the list that comes up with your contacts that you have written to before and you can pick one without typing the whole thing? In OE, Outlook, etc, you could highlight a bad address and click delete to remove it from the list. That doesn't function in Windows Mail. How can you edit this list?

Last night I was working on an Access database. I closed the file and its folder and then decided to go back in to check something. I opened the folder and THE FILE WASN'T THERE!! Panic and chaos ensued for a while. I was able to find the file by going back into access and opening it from it's most recently used file list. I saved a backup copy etc.....
However, the original file is still not showing up in the folder. I have changed the folder settings to show hidden files, done a search, everything I can think of, but the file won't show up. Thinking that the original is somewhere else and perhaps I have just lost it, I moved a backup copy into the original folder and tried to change it's name to that of the original file. Windows gives me the warning that a file with that name already exists! If it exists, how come I can't see it? The folder says there are 9 items but there are actually 10 if you include this ghost file.

I want to see the full list of file associations on my system (Vista 64) but I can find no way to get this information. In XP and previous versions of windows, one could get that info from windows explorer. In Vista, it seems you can only display those associations for a given application. Is there a way to obtain the full list in plain vanilla Vista or with an addon ?

How can one convert the list of files in a folder, as shown on "View...List" in Explorer, to a Word Document without first capturing the screen, printing the image, then physically scanning the printed page, and finally utilizing the OCR program? I do not wish to retype the lists as text documents, which I nearly and effectively have to do when the OCR has been used previously in this manner. I have over 2,000 family photos that I have restored and "saved as..." with identifiying names and dates and need an editable list to be used by recipients of the copies that will be given. The photos were not tagged. Vista Home Premium and Office 2003 are being used.

I have Vista Ultimate.
I don't have a printer, but there are some documents that i want to save.
The only option in a web page to make copy of them is to print them.
How can i configure my vista to print what ever "to file" instead to printer?

I want to print a graphic image from Firefox to a file for modification using Paint Shop Pro. Normally the grapic would be printed directly to my HP Laserjet 5P. I can print to file, but don't understand the format or how to access it. After modification, I want to print it on the HP.

Vista Ultimate - 64 bit. In one of my folders, I have an extensive sub- folder tree which I'd like to print out as a Word file. Here's what I've done:
1. I click Start | Programs | Accessories | Command Prompt
2. Using the CD command, I get to the head folder of the desire sub-folder tree
3. If I then run the command "Tree", the sub-folder tree scrolls by quickly in the desired format - i.e., like a genealogy chart, with lines connecting the various levels.
But if I try to pipe the output to a text or Word file using the command tree>tree.txt or tree>.tree.doc, I get the tree. But the nice lines linking the various levels are replaced by a sequence of bogus characters. The maddening thing is that I was earlier able to get the nice chart into a Word document. But I neglected to record the steps, and can't reproduce them.

Have checked the posts regarding this subject and googled it extensively but could not find any definitive answers. As I stated in some other post I got MS Office 97 Pro installed just fine and everything's working with no major problems; don't even have to use any compatability mode on Access, Excel and Binder (Powerpoint, Outlook are not installed) but must use WIN2000 compatability mode for Word or I can't use the Tools/Envelopes and Labels feature (popup-something about incorrect parameter). The problem I have is with printing in Word.
I can print just fine from the print icon on the toolbar in both regular view or print preview but when I try to use Print from within the File menu I get an error message like the one shown below. All other printing from any of those mentioned programs works just fine. I've been at this for some time now; uninstalled through Vista and MS Office Add/Remove and by also removing any readily identifiable instances of MS Office, reinstalled as an Administrator and not, in addition to using different compatability modes and the Print "problem" in Word persists.

I've been around here a couple of time in the last couple of years with my Vista machine and you all always seem to have the answers for me. So here I go again. Now I'm sure there is a simple fix for this, but I can't seem to find it. I happen to have two files now that I can NOT delete. I keep getting the message; Could not find this item. This is no longer lacated in C:UsersRoyBoyFavorites. Verify the item's location and try again................

When I try to print a web site image to an Adobe PDF file, Vista states that for security purposes the pdf file will be placed in a "virtual" temporary internet file folder, then opens the virtual folder on C drive, but then doesn't save the file in the folder. I've been able to work around the problem by disabling all user account control security, but there has to be an easier way. I'd like to save files without security forcing them to a
specific folder.

This is regarding a desktop using Vista Home Premium and a laptop using Vista Home Premium. A shared printer is attached to the desktop. I've spent more than a few hours of researching on the internet, including the technet information for Vista file/print sharing. I have enabled file and print sharing without using a password on a private network. I have Xp machines on my home network. I am able to access them with no issues.
My issue is that when I access my Vista Home Premium desktop from the Vista Home Premium laptop (or vice versa), I have to enter a username. Any letter of the alphabet works, a password is not required. My desktop is a dual boot system. The other OS is XP Home. It does not require a username for file/print sharing................

I'm just starting to use Windows Mail - looking for a way to display the names in my contact list (previously address book) on the "home" page of Mail, under the folder list, as I used to see them in Outlook Express. It's much more cumbersome to have to open the contact list, find a name and then click on the email button. Is that the only way to open a new mail with a person's name in the To field?

This is my third post (twice in IE 7 forum...no answer). I cannot delete favorites from favorites list. I have tried deleting while in safe mode also. After a short while they reappear again and seem to be multiplying! I cannot find the temporary folder either. I have Compaq Presario with Windows Vista Home Basic and Explorer 7 installed from factory. Purchased January of this year. I am familiar with Windows Xp and could find my way around the computer files, but Vista is really different and complicated! I do not know what else to do. I also have Webroot AntiVirus with AntiSpyware installed and have unchecked the box for favorites sheild because I am constantly being asked to keep or remove the favorites, but if I click remove they still return and I am asked over and over again the same question.

I downloaded a demo called Overclocked using ReGet Deluxe. When downloaded it comes as a Zip file which also had a file accompanying it. This is the file that I cannot delete. The extension says it’s a zip file but in properties it just says File as a file type & a size of 0 bytes. It’s located in my storage drive “D” When trying to delete the message I get is: This is no longer located in D:. Verify the item’s location and try again. Cannot move, rename or send to? It just comes up with the same message as above. UAC is disabled. Tried Unlocker but doesn’t work on Vista x64. (worked superb in XP) Used Regseeker and removed any traces that came up with. (Works ok in Vista but not 100% stable?) Tried Regedit and removed all traces of Overclocked in there. here is got to be a way of removing files like this without everyone’s solution of formatting. Surly it’s not as drastic as that?

I have a Vista Ultimate x64, which I reinstalled a few days ago. I also have a large drive(D:), where I keep some of my software, which i don't use regularly or which does not require a performance of my main RAID 0 (C:) setup.
Before reinstallation I didn't remove old software from drive D:. Didn't think I had to, afterall it's not the first reinstall that i'm doing and it would be kind of stupid. Anyways, to the point...
I have a folder "D:Program Files (x86)" with a bunch of software. I was able to delete all of it manually, but a few folders, created by adobe acrobat.
I am logged in as Administrator (actual administrator, not user with admin. perm.)
UAC is disabled
Drive is owned by this acct.
I was able to delete everything manually inside "AdobeAcrobat", but "D:Program Files (x86)AdobeAcrobat 9.0ResourceCMap" just would not delete, getting a "You need permission to perform this action" message.
Folders and Files are set as "Read Only" and when i'm trying to uncheck, i'm getting "You will need to provide Administrator permission to change these attributes" message, after clicking "Continue" i'm getting "An error occured applying attributes to the file" "...filename..." "Access is denied".
I have an Acrobat 8.0 folder from like a year and a half ago, which does the same thing......
All Files have "RA" in the attributes section of the details tab and Owner is "SYSTEM"

Windows Vista Ultimate 64.I right click and hit delete on a file and I get Item not found
This is no longer located in C:UsersJustinDownloads verify the items location and try again.
The file is a MS Word docx, downloaded from my college's Blackboard system.I booted into safe mode (under the admin account) and ended up with the same message.I was told this could possible be an issue with Temporary Internet files and IE - I use Firefox. I cleared out the TIF on both browsers and the file is still there.

i have a file on my desktop called "Internet - arabbab8_s channel_5" it was a video "flv". it's 21.9 mb and i can't get it to delete. right-clicking it and doing properties doesn't open the properties window. if i move it to the recycle bin (with the keyboard delete button or the mouse, or shift and delete) the "calculation time remaining" delete dialogue comes up and the progress bar keeps on flashing, but it never deletes the file.

In my 64-bit installation, the print spooler server suddenly stopped running (and will not restart). I've tried cleaning out registry keys (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlPrint), deleting the files out of Windows (C:WindowsSystem32spool) to no avail. The system log contains many of these:Error Service Control Manager Eventlog Provider7034None The application log contains these:WarningSpoolerSpoolss1035NoneThe print spooler failed to load print provider localspl.dll. This can occur because of system instability or a lack of system resources.ErrorSpoolerSpoolss1027None The system failed to initialize the local print provider: Error 0. This can occur because of system instability or a lack of system resources.

I have a very unusual problem with my vista ultimate 64 bit, when ever I execute an exe file, I can't delete it afterwards. I can delete it after restart. There is no security problem, if I do not execute the file then I can delete, move and do what I want. The moment it is run, and certainly close it, I can't delete it any longer. I checked that the process is not running any more. I tried to see if something is locking the file, no handle was found on the file. It happens for different programs, no matter what as long as it is an .exe file. I tried unlocker program that said the file is not locked. It happens even on a usb key with FAT. The moment I run the exe from the key I can't delete it, and I can't remove the key the right way.
When I pull out the key, and return it, I can delete the file, it is free. But I can't do that to my hard drive. Tried scanning for virus, and malware - nothing was found. Tried security related, but since it happen on a usb FAT disk, and there is no security for that, I am starting to give up. At this time formatting the computer in not an option.

Every time i click on it it says this file is no longer located in usersxdesktop. I can't rename it or it says the source and destination file are the same. It is 0 mb, and it has no security tab. I looked at the desktop directory in command prompt, and it is listed there, but every time i try to delete it doesn't type the whole file name.

ok, so i think i made a big mistake and i have not clue hot to fix it.
so in the past on my older computers (ones that ran XP) i would make a new folder on my desktop and name it "alt+0160" and it would just have no name then, then i would change the icon to nothing and i would have an invisible icon and i would throw all my program icons into that folder and get rid of recycle bin icon so there was nothing on the desktop. well i just bought a laptop and it has vista on it and i did the same thing but i just deleted all the icons and hid the recycle bin icon in the properties somewhere i dont remember where but im sure you know what im talking about.
