View 10 Replies View RelatedWindows Folder Icon Changing On Rename
Jun 29, 2012I am having very bizarre behavior with the folder icon changing when I rename a folder. On my C: drive, I have a folder named mydata. I created it using Google Drive, and renamed it to mydata. The folder at first showed the Google Drive triangle icon, and now shows the recycling arrows on folder icon, showing it needs updating. So far, so good.
I now created a separate folder on my C: drive named "mydata backup". Upon creation of the folder, it gets the google drive icon (recycling arrows). If I create a folder with any other name, it gets the standard folder icon. If I rename a folder to "mydata anything", it immediately takes on the google drive icon! If I rename it to "xmydata anything", it goes back to the normal folder icon!
I doubt that Google Drive is changing the icon, since in theory it doesn't know about a new folder or a folder rename outside of the folder it controls, so I assume the icon change comes from Windows 7 itself. Has anyone seen anything like this? If not, I will go to the Google Drive people and see if they have an answer.

Jan 11, 2013I've seen a three year thread about this subject with no solution, I was wondering if this was possible. I know the shutdown and logon screens use the same image, but is there a way to have the shutdown a custom image and the logon and black screen?

I have decided if this can't be done I'm just gonna leave a black background with "Shutting down Super Nintendo PC" (which you can actually see at the end of the video) I've attached a video showing my issue

View 3 Replies View RelatedChanging The Folder Template?
Apr 11, 2011As Windows7 has a feature "Automatic Folder Type Discovery", it will automatically change the folder template of a folder to match the file type of the last file added or saved in the folder. Of course, you can change the folder template to one of General Items, Documents, Pictures, Music and Videos manually.Here is my problem, for example, I have three folders: A, B and C. Folder A is located in D:, B is a subfolder to A, and C is a subfolder to B. (D:ABC)If I change the folder template of A, from General Items to Pictures, for example, the folder templates of both B and C will also be changed to Pictures. AND, if I change the folder template of C to Documents, the folder templates of A and B will be changed to Documents too. There seems to be a bond among the three folders, if I change the folder template of any one, the other two will be changed automatically.At first, I thought the "Automatic Folder Type Discovery" might cause the problem, but after I've disabled "Automatic Folder Type Discovery", the problem is still a problem.

View 8 Replies View RelatedChanging The Temporary Folder When Burning In Mastered Format?
Sep 11, 2010I went to the "recording" tab in my DVD burner's properties, changed the drive from C to D. Now there's a folder called "Windows Burn Temp Files" in my D drive. But the problem is, while burning, files are still being copied over to C in a temporary folder there. Shouldn't it be copying to D:Windows Burn Temp Files instead? Example, when I cut paste some files from D drive on to the DVD drive before burning, it should be instantaneous, as the temporary files should also be shored in the same drive, D. But this is not happening.
View 2 Replies View RelatedChanging Default Installation Folder To Separate Drive?
Sep 4, 2011If you have a small but fast (or maybe not so fast) drive that you would like to ONLY run Windows off of and a larger separate HDD that you want to use as the install drive for all programs.In my case I have a 50GB SSD and a RAID0 array of 2TB. With space being limited on the SSD the best option for me is to install everything to the RAID array and leave the OS on the SSD. Mind you, you don't have to be running a RAID array to do this. That's just how my system is set up. You'll probably be better off just using a larger single HDD for stability reasons.And if you are doing a fresh install you should give this tutorial a look: User Profiles - Create and Move During Windows 7 Installation So the first step is to open REGEDIT. Simply click the Start Menu, type REGEDIT in the search bar and hit ENTER.Next look for the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" Once opened go to "SOFTWARE". There are two folder in this directory we will be editing. Note that the second folder "WOW64" is only for 64-bit users. If you are running 32-bit then the "WINDOWS" folder is all you will need to make changes to.Now from the "WINDOWS" folder you want to select "CURRENTVERSION". Simply click the folder itself not the arrow next to it. This is what you should see in the main window to the right of the directories. Now my registry settings have already been changed. Note that my secondary drive is "D:". Originaly everything here was set to "C:".
Once this is finished the 32-bit users are finished and can restart their systems. 64-bit users have one more step. Now you want to go to your "WOW64" folder. While I just realized I forgot to cut a snippet for this step it's fairly simple. Once in the "WOW64" folder you once again want to click the "CURRENTUSER" folder and observe the main window to the right.Just like in the "WINDOWS" registry you will make the same changes. Once you have implemented your drive your registry should look like this.Now restart your system. Though there is a chance you are completely finished I highly suggest running a command prompt session and typing "sfc /scannow". This will allow your system to scan for any conflicts in the internal settings and fix them.
GP For Permanently Changing Shared Folder Offline Permissions?
Jul 11, 2012've got a problem getting offline folder permissions to stick after restarts in our domain. Here's what I do:Go to MC>shared folders>shares>C$ (as an example)>properties>offline settings> and then I change "only files and folders users specify..." to "All files...". Apply and done.It works like a champ for what I'm trying to do (enable Restore Previous Versions of files to actually work- I learned that RPV fix from another thread here at seven), but after each restart the settings are restored to default. I'm assuming there's a group policy I can implement that'll auto-set those permissions permanently but I can't find any 'offline' shared folder permissions options anywhere
