Unable To See Files
Jun 12, 2011
I used Acer's function to restore my computer to factory settings, and I picked the option to save backup files.
I can find the backup folder, and I know the files are there because the folders take up quite a bit of size, but there are no programs in the folder. The only programs I have been able to get was through MTGO. It found the files some how. Excel, word, etc can't find those files. Even the ones MTGO found I can only see using the program.
Does anyone know how I can get my old prgrams back?

I've been having this problem off and on for the last month or two. So, when I try to launch a game (For example Warcraft 3) The program shows the launch image, and when that disappears, the program appears in task manager taking up only 100-3000 Kb of memory, never rising. When I end said task, my computer slows down to a snail pace and I need to restart. I've run virus scans, and every time they come up with nothing. I tried to system restore, but I also don't have any restore points other than the system update I did this morning. The problem started in about February of this year, and goes off and on for about a week or two. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 build 7601, with avast! antivirus.

I'm trying to clean up an external drive by deleting various files (using Windows Explorer) but like every file gives me "an unexpected error is keeping you from deleting the file error 0x80070570".
Now for some reason I can delete the files using del in the command prompt.But I need to delete hundreds of specific files scattered around, so I need to figure out how to get around this error.I don't want to chkdsk etc on the external either. I just want to bypass the error.

I have about 5 MKV files that I can not delete or rename or move. I can copy them, but then the copies will not be deletable at wherever I paste them. I have tried running as an administrator and "taking ownership", but still can not delete them. They are all .MKV if that matters. I am on Win 7 home 64.

Relatively fresh install Win 7 Pro 64bit Thunderbird is default email programme
I use an outliner/PIM which uses IE to display saved files in it's viewer pane. It had a problem showing saved emails in .eml format. I then tried to open the emails directly with IE 32 & 64 bits - without success.
What happens is: a donwload progress-window opens, and, in front of that, a download dialogue asking do I want to open or save or cancel.
I thought I was being smart when I deselected "Always ask for this filetype" but then it opens the file in Thunderbird, the default handler.
But I want it to open in IE - why does the download dialogue open at all? I'm trying to use IE to open it: this happens if I try to open a locally saved file via the context menu "open with" or if I try to open from within IE.
Some security setting maybe? This used work in XP IE8 so presume it should work here. I presume I could make IE the default handler for eml but dont want to mess with Thunderbird either...

So, lately my Windows 7 started acting weird. I'm not able to delete or rename files that I have used recently. Let's say I run File.exe, close it and I want to delete/rename this file. Sometimes I'm trying to do that I get error about something that couldn't delete file because it's in use. It also happens with auto patchers in games, system denies to delete/modify items. Happens with compiler aswell, they're not able to over-write output file. I'm not going to post screenshot since it doesn't happen always and I don't really know how to reproduce this, but it's regular error box with message similar to "Couldn't delete file. File is in use/opened by some process." or something like that with 2 buttons "Retry" and "Cancel". Current solution for that is Log off/Reboot or use application called "UnLocker" (I found it via Google some time ago)

When I save a file to my C drive, (like a Jpg for example) then go into my C drive to view it, the file isn't there. But when I am saving another file, I can see the first file in the C drive, only in the "Save Window", not when I go to the drive itself.

I have a new Windows 7 laptop from my work. I can open files (Word, Excel, Adobe and so on) on the server but when I try to save them it seems to be hit and miss. Most of the time I get a flag that says the file can't be saved because it is in use already. I can usually save it to my HD by renaming it but this is inconvenient

Well, my desktop is a terrible mess, and I'm trying to move most of the files there to the Recycle Bin. But Windows is being stubborn... Ever since I reduced the privileges of all the user accounts on my laptop, and created an Admin account with a password for extra security, I can't move files there any more. I did a Google search of the error, and found no useful results of relevance to my problem.
Specs:
4GB DDR2 RAM
Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.26GHz (2 cores, 2 threads)
AMD Radeon 3650, 512MB DDR2
Windows 7 Home Premium x86 SP1

I can't seem to create the needed files as instructed from SF Diagnostics Tool. Every time I press a button, an Unhandled exception, could not find file C:XXX.txt, always occurs except for the "System Information" button. I tried searching but could not find any similar problem encountered from the tool.

I have downloaded some music files and a couple of films, with BitComet. When i download the files they usualy go into my download folder, but some of them have ended up on my desktop. I have deleted them from BitComet, and tried to delete them from my desktop. For some reason it is saying that the files are open somewhere else, so it cant delete them. I cant seem to find out where they are, so i cant delete them

Folderico lets you change folder icons to whatever you want, which is great, but I haven't been able to find a similar software for file types. I'm not looking to change the icon to every file, only certain ones that have blank thumbnails (think .bin or .gba files for example; I want to give each .gba file a custom icon, like a game cover or something, but I don't want all the .gba files I have to have the same thumbnail).

I recently purchased a laptop and hooked up my Seagate HDD to access different files on there (music and videos mainly). The HDD was originally connected to my desktop. Both systems run Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.
However, on the laptop, there are some files (it seems to be older ones) that I can't run from the hard drive. I have to copy them to my actual hard drive in order to run them. Trying to rename one of these files yields " File Access Denied: You'll need to provide administrator permission to rename this file" even though I only have one account on here which is the admin.
Is there any way just to do a clean wipe of the security restrictions so I don't have to worry about this?

Windows 7 has this neat feature where I can navigate into a compressed (zip) file from Windows Explorer. The icon appears like a folder with a zipper through it & I can just navitage.I can't edit a file in the zip folder directly. I have to first copy it out of the zip, edit it, then copy back into the zip. What am I missing here? If I can overwrite a file why not just allow me to edit it?
