PossibleTo Set Explorer Columns For Data Directory
Jan 22, 2012
As an example, The Itunes directory is in My Music. My Music is in a Music library, so the file details in explorer include album, #, etc. Within Itunes is the Apps directory and other data where "album name" doesn't make sense. I want it to display as a non-music directory. There doesn't seem to be any way to set the default columns displayed in a directory within a Music Library without changing how all the directories are displayed. Nor does there seem to be a way to remove a Music Library sub-directory from being considered as a Music Library member.
Can we modify or add a custom columns on Explorer?
i just installed dBpoweramp and i can see a complete metadata info about the audio files via popup info & Audio Properties tab (created by dBpoweramp), i consider some of them are advanced info like encoder settings, accuraterip results, CD catalog, etc. can we add a custom columns on Explorer for these info?
and tried to add an extra columns like 'compression ratio', 'encoded by' & 'bit depth' on Explorer but it shows nothing. I can see via dBpoweramp for some audio files, but not on Explorer, it just blank.
In Windows Explorer, Detail View, is there a way to remove/disable the additional columns? (ie: Track, Artist, length, etc) I'm a simple person, and only want the main columns displayed, (Size, Type, Date) and Windows 7 seems to ignore me when i change the views. Even the "Reset All", and "Apply to All" seem to be ignored after a day later.In XP your could remove them from RegEdit under HKCRSystemFileAssociations and deleting the "Audio", "Video", and "Images" keys, and Explorer would 'forget' how to handle them, and details view would remain the same, but Windows 7 doesn't seem to respond to this either.
If I click on one directory I get "Windows Explorer has stopped working". It used to be fine but crashes WE every time now. A colleague suggested right click and reset the properties, but right click causes the crash too.I can open it remotely from an XP system, and I can navigate it in a DOS box so I know the files are all still good.Disk check says "No problems".Sophos anti-virus scan finds nothing. Malwarebytes scan finds nothing.None of these crash or report corruption.
Very strange... I can't see my C:Usersdenisl folder through explorer.My documents/pictures/etc libraries all have the files and through a command prompt I can cd to my home directy and everything is there..
Is there a way to change the directory that automatically opens when opening explorer? Instead of having libraries come up I want to have my home folder.
I have activated my Windows 7 which is on a separate disk drive from the old predecessor, Vista 64. Can I remove this older disk and repair the boot using the upgrade DVD? Do you need a full retail version to do that? Do I have to keep the Hard Drive that the old Vista was on forever ? And, can I use that Vista on another computer?
I have a Belkin battery backup system (UPS) that has some software (Belkin Bulldog Plus Monitor) that monitors the computer and AC power, and, in the event of the loss of AC power, puts the system in hibernation. This worked really well under XP; alas, I've migrated to Windows 7/Pro (64-bit). Belkin has no Windows 7 support (indeed, they have withdrawn from the UPS market).Is there a way I can get the XP Mode to startup as part of the boot process, and, as part of it, get the Belkin software to load? If I were successful in that, would issuing the hibernation command be limited to hibernating the XP VM, or would it apply to the overall Windows 7 environment?
One directory (Directory A) containing the same files as Directory B but with the wrong Date created / modified attributes.how to make all the files in Directory A have the same date created/modified attributes as Directory B.
I have a 10 files that have all been categorised into about 40 folders. These files have been damaged.I have a backup of all these files, but they are not categorised and sit in a single directory.Does anyone know of an easy technique to batch replace the damaged files with the originals?
I was wondering if there's a way to make that the automatic default. I'm really getting tired of having resize the colums every time I open a directory.
I installed partition magic to format a external HDD with the FS FAT32 since ps3 supports only FAT32 but to my dismay D: where I have all my data does not show up on explorer it shows up in disk management with the size of the disk 115.7 GB unable to explore add or change drive letter PS help..I installed recover partition and all the files shows up but I dont have an option to recover...
I would like to permanently change the columns in my music folder to add bit rate and length. I have many folders. I'd like to do it all at once if possible. All my music is on an external drive so I don't know if they will remain permanently when I remove drive but is this even possible?
I want to set up a foldertemplate with specific foldercolums like:
- document-id - client-id - title - date - author - name - origin
I can do this very easely, but i can't add data corresponding the columns to a file.The goal is to have a list of different file-types like word, excel, pdf, ... in one folder. Those files have to contain the information corresponding the columns, e.g.:"A.1.1 _ P090402/1 _ title of the original file _ 27/06/1950 _ CocaCola _ windows-name _ mail etc".this seems to be impossible because every file is different: the one let you insert one of the specifications (but often not all...), the other doesn't accept changes (like pdf).
So I've been using my 64GB ssd as my windows 7 boot drive and i have a 1TB hdd as my data drive. Recently the my computer has begun to freeze up with errors like "explorer.exe" has stopped responding or "windows" has stopped responding and half of the time when i try to boot it says it cant find windows. This has lead me to believe that my ssd is dying despite being only a year old. I need to RMA my ssd but to do that i would be losing my boot drive for weeks. So I thought id try to create a system image so that i can simply put my boot drive on my hdd, but when i try to create the image it says that the image would be 711GB because its including all of my hdd (which contains all my user libraries and downloads). My question is: how do I make windows stop thinking that my hdd is a system drive so that I can create a reasonably sized image, or more generally: how can i easily move my boot drive to my hdd? Also, I've read some posts about using "easyBCD" to accomplish the latter but I'm not sure that's exactly what i need in this situation.
just did a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate on my second pc, all went well apart from it gets to amd data change update new data to dmi then..... stops, it wont budge, i haven't touched anything in the bios or added any new hardwear.When i reboot, same again, went into the bios and made sure i have it set to boot from hard drive first.
forum i have a question. I have a kingston 30 gb ssd i use as my windows drive, and a 750 gb wd hdd for data/game storage. I have heard that you can ghost a file on the data drive into the x86 folder so that all new installs go there and then you still recieve most of the benefits of your ssd w/o clogging it up. I have an amd based system (dont know if that matters or not)
I recently got a new PC it has Windows 7 Pro 64Bit OS. My old XP box finally died. I have my music drive which is external USB 500 GB drive Seagate Free Agent drive. I used in on my old system. I have about 110GB of music on it. It is my main music drive. I got some new songs that i wanted to add to the drive. I tried to make a new directory and I received a message saying that I don't have permission to create a folder. I tried creating a new folder within my music directory. I can create a new folder within the root of the drive but I cannot create a new directory where I want it. I am an admin on the PC so I even made sure that I was added as a user on the drive when I set permissions and sharing.
I moved a external USB drive formatted NTFS from an XP system to a Windows 7 system, and it will permanently stay on the Windows 7 system. I can't get any write or change access on the USB drive folders or files. I cannot change permissions in advanced mode, and it lists the file/directory owner as unknown in the group or user names box. It complains that I don't have administrator control, however I am logged in as administrator.How can I take ownership & change permissions on this drive?
Just looking at my root directory and trying to clean up what is not needed. I have Win7 64 bit. Can I delete any of these files??.rmd{45F28847-516F-40B7-9C6C-7A08E848927B}{03793A38-AB8E-48AB-B8DE-C78202EOFC83}{97782997-1B5D-4500-8514-8DCC63EFF45E}app_messagelog.scvlog install.exeinstall.iniinstall.logjava_log.txtmsdia80.dll
I have a folder I've been trying to delete for some time but I am unable to. I am using cmd prompt and get the message "the directory is not empty". I know it's not empty but it needs to get deleted.
D:>RMDIR /s m m, Are you sure (Y/N)? y - The directory is not empty.
I'm new on this forum and I'm having a little problem when I try to install a new application, the DAZ 3D. I can't install because Windows 7 shows me this message: There has been an error. Error creating directory C:/Users/?Wagner/AppData/Roaming/DAZ 3D" Something (not me) is putting a question mark (?) before my username.
I was emptying my external drive to start some new backups and I noticed that there was a msdia.dll in the directory of the external drive. How did it get there and should I delete it? Or is it OK there? I'ts a MS Debug Information Accessor. dll, whatever it does or is.
After I make a full system backup in Win 7 I move to the WindowsImageBackup directory. I try to move down the chain to the directory named after my computer. But when I try to move down the chain I get an "You do not have permission" message. I am an administrator and I am able to get around the message but I'm just wondering if there is something I can do to not make the message pop up each time.
