Change The Target For AppData?
Nov 27, 2012My SSD for my OS is only 60GB and I have around 200MB space left on it, and I would like to redirect my AppData to a second SSD because it is nearly 6GB and the biggest folder.

Aug 5, 2012I am downloading audiobook files from England onto a single-user system running Windows 7, 64-bit system and using Internet Explorer 9. When I do a "Save Target As" function to download a file, the source file is often much larger in Mb than the way it is when it becomes saved onto my computer. For ex:, the source file might be 41mb and the way I get it is perhaps 1900kb. WHY are the source and target so different? Also, how do I get my files to show as Mb as the Target ones do instead of being in kb?

Selecting Backup Target Folder
Nov 15, 2009I have a notebook running Windows 7 Professional, and it's set to back up via network to an external drive which is connected to a desktop running Home Premium.
On the notebook, when I'm selecting the backup target, it lets me choose a specific folder on the external drive. However, when I'm backing up the desktop directly to the external drive, the only choice is the root of the external drive.
I'd like to specify a folder into which the desktop can back up instead. Can this be done, or am I going to have to pop for another Professional anytime upgrade?
Moving Documents Renames Target Folder Itself?
Nov 10, 2011I want to move the My Documents onto a separate partition, which appears very straightforward in 7.
However, the first time I called the partition (as that was all it was going to be used for) 'My Documents' and just wanted to move the sub folders there.
Unfortunately, having moved the first item 'Desktop', the partition itself became 'Desktop' and behaved like that folder. The only way I could get it back was by creating other users and deleting the initial profile.
Subsequenty, every time I try to move 'My Documents', the folder selected is renamed by Windows to whatever folder I'm moving and the path afterwards reflects that, irrespective of my instruction.
i.e. I want to move 'My Documents' so create a folder called 'Information' (either before or during the move dialogue makes no difference. I confirm the notification to move files and receive confirmation of success.
Bizarrely, the new folder, previously 'Information', is now called 'My Documents'.

Aug 3, 2010I want to set Windows 7 Home Premium x64 to open PowerPoint files in PowerPoint Viewer rather than OpenOffice (the current default program), but I can't find the location of the PowerPoint Viewer program file.
With a user administratior account, when I open a properties window for the shortcut icon and and go to the Shortcut tab, in the Target box there is no path to the target file. The target is said to be simply, "Microsoft Office PowerPoint Viewer 2007 (English)". Ditto for all other shortcuts to Microsoft Office programs.
Shortcuts for other programs however (e.g. Calculator, Paint, OpenOffice, etc.) all display a pathname in the target box.
Anything In AppData That Needs To Be Backed Up?
Mar 10, 2012I notice that one of my backup programs has selected all the folders in my User folder to be backed up. Among those selected is the hidden folder AppData, containing 8800 files. Since there are files in there that seem to change daily, it slows down the daily backup. I am wondering if there is really anything in there that I need to back up. I've read that some older versions of Outlook and sometimes Windows Live Mail put data in there, but in the past I've restored computers and I've never copied anything from AppData. It does not seem to be the stored emails, perhaps it is confuguration data? So my question is, can I remove AppData from my backup job and what might I be losing?

Moving/Copying The AppData Folder?
Mar 22, 2012I made a really dumb mistake last night while setting up a VPN. Long story short I deleted my user account. Now, I did not lose any data at all (the account's folder still exists, untouched, in the /Users folder), it is just the user account picture and log in information that are gone. I have no way (that I know of) of re-referencing it so that it appears on my log-in screen again.My issue is that I effectively lost some programs and all configuration files that were exclusively associated with that account. Which is years of config data that I would HATE to have to do again. My questions are as follows (which are two sides of the same coin really).
Is there some way to re-reference this user account so it shows up and loads up like normal on windows login once again? (The system displays it as "User Unknown")f not, is there something that I can do with the /AppData folders of the new (recently created) and old ("deleted") accounts to make my new account be just like the old one?
