DOS Commands (DIR And MOVE) Errors With Windows 7

Jul 18, 2012

In Windows 7, I have found erroneous results in executing DOS commands (DIR and MOVE) using the wildcard *. a sample command is:

dir "42013*.LIC > "List 42013 LIC.txt"

This should make a list of all the files in the directory that begin with "42013". But, I get additional files listed that do not begin with "42013" or even contain the sequence of numbers.

Outlook 2007 Task Search Versus Windows7 Computer Wide Search

Nov 10, 2009

Outlook 2007 Task search versus Windows7 computer wide search.

I enter the same keyword (one of the words contained within the title of a completed task) in the Outlook Task search box as I do the Windows 7 orb 'search programs and files.' The Windows 7 search returns the correct search result (along with a lot other results having the same keyword) practically immediately whereas Outlook is still searching...and searching.

If I have index options set to include the C: drive and Outlook, what's going on with Outlook?

No Results When Using Search Programs And Files Box Or Explorer Search Box

Feb 18, 2012

I began having an issue with my laptops ATI Radeon graphics driver not working properly. It is fixed now, but the other issues I was having at the same time was not being able to view indexed files through the "search programs and files" and "windows explorer search" box. The screen goes blank or does not produce any results. Also, one of my downloaded software disk programs will not open--error. This particular program, Logos Bible software, index its files quite often. Even when I am not using the program. I also cannot change my desktop background to any picture except solid colors. I think my laptop has a corrupted file somewhere, or it is infected with malware.

"windows Cannot Find 'search:query=XXX'" Error Message Windows Search

Nov 25, 2010

"windows cannot find 'search:query=XXX'" error I have been experiencing lately.

The problem is similar to the one I described previously (here: Windows could not start the Windows Search service on Local Computer)

...namely, I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, and have experienced the same error message ( windows cannot find 'search:query=XXX', where XXX is my search query) when attempting to initiate a search via the Windows start menu search box. Unfortunately, my previously proposed solution (of removing a network search location from Windows Search Index list) does not resolve it.....and so finally I resorted to using Samhrutha's proposed solution of modifying the registry to reset Windows Search back to default (which DID work...but ended up removing all the search index customizations I had made).

However, when I then modify the search indexing options to include indexing of my C: drive, I get the "windows cannot find 'search:query=XXX'" error message.

If I then uncheck the C: drive box in the search in the search indexing options, the error message does not occur....so I then went thru a tedious process of trying to identify which folders on my C drive were causing the issue, and from what I am able to tell, the "windows cannot find 'search:query=XXX'" error message seems to always occur when the indexing options include at least one folder WHICH IS OWNED by TRUSTED INSTALLER (e.g., program files folder, program files (x86), c:, etc.). This wasn't a problem previously, so my guess is that MS Update recently (e.g., w/in the last few months) changed some security setting which now prevents Windows Search from being able to index/access folders owned by TRUSTED INSTALLER, resulting in the "windows cannot find 'search:query=XXX'" error message.

Start Menu Commands Not Working?

Jul 6, 2011

I'm working on a computer and currently removing some viruses. I noticed a couple things,1) Trying to save to certain locations will come up with a permissions denied error. I tried to unzip a file to the desktop and got a permissions denied error.2) Typing commands in the start menu goes to search results instead of straight to that item. For example, typing "control" should bring up the control panel but it goes to search instead. Same with msconfig, appwiz.cpl, etc,

Execute Commands On Power Event

Sep 4, 2010

Is there some way to configure Windows 7 to execute commands (such as resolution changing, killing/starting processes and services, etc.) whenever the laptop switches from AC to DC and back? I have been using batterysaver from codeplex.com but it is still in beta and hasn't seen any updates for around 6 months. It is somewhat unreliable and I can't get it to trigger nircmd.exe to lower my resolution when I switch to battery or to raise it when I switch back.I think my best bet would be Task Scheduler, but I don't know how to make a power event a trigger.

Setting Commands For An External Tool In Maxthon?

Aug 27, 2011

I want to put CCleaner into my plugin bar of my browser (Maxthon2.5.18.1000) via Tools>External Tools. But, here's the problem. Normally, when opening CCleaner from a shortcut, one then has to give permission before it opens. I have followed Brink's protocol to elevate a shortcut [URL]. So, now when clicking on the pinned shortcut, CCleaner opens without having to give permission. Its path is C:WindowsSystem32schtasks.exe /run /tn CCleaner. The problem arises when trying to place CCleaner into the plugin bar as I just can't get it to work.

When setting the external tool's Utilities dropdown Command field to C:WindowsSystem32schtasks.exe /run /tn CCleaner (and nothing else in any of its other fields), that doesn't work. And, when setting to C:Program FilesCCleanerCCleaner.exe, it works, but I have to first give permission...which I don't want to have to do.

Ensure All Commands In Batch File Are Executed?

Feb 18, 2013

I have a batch file that mounts a network storage location using:pushd (storage_server_path)and then executes a Python script in the directory on the network storage server.I noticed that if I hit the 'X' in the top right corner to close the command prompt while the Python script is running, the network storage location stays mapped on my machine even though the batch file contains popd to unmap the drive after I am done. Is there a way to ensure that all commands in the batch file are executed even if the command prompt is closed? I don't want to have multiple different shortcuts mapped to this drive.
