I have used firefox since day one when I bought my new pc - but in recent months, I have been getting some irritating issues.Everytime I goto clear my temporary internet files, the program simply refuses to completely clear them and the address toolbar.Also, I cannot seem to install or update Java, everytime I goto install it, the installer comes up with an error - and renders Java unusable.Finally whenever I use Hotmail this is a frequent issue."A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete. url..
I know the files are there, and I know the directory ( as defined in IE8 itself ), but I can't see them in any other application.I want to use my Eraser program to erase these files properly, rather than just deleting them.
i can't see my temporary internet files folder listed.i can delete the files from ie, but can't see it listed when i look for it through my computer.another problem that i'm having is that all the files are not listed in the temp file.when i watch a video from Internet - i delete all the files in the temp file, watch the video, refresh temp screen - it lists only 3 or 4 files and none of them are bigger than 3kb.
I use ie 9.Now it has stopped recording temp internet files that I have surfed online in internet. It was recording earlier and it was very useful for me to see the content later offline.Please advise and guide me how to rectify this error
Ever since I have Windows 7 I noticed that thousands of temporary internet files are being created. In particular I noticed a true epidemy of random .kmz files, none of them actually haing been used by me.
I used the temporary internet files very often on Windows XP. It was the easiest way for me to grab images, xml's, flv, swf, mp3's and go on and on. Now I have windows 7 (version 7137) and when I look in the TIF folder, there are no jpg's, no flv's, no swf's and so on.
I was wondering if those images (files) are maybe saved somewhere else? I tried downloading programs that are specially made to grab images from the web, but I can't say that those programs are great replacements.
There appears to be an abundance of "Temporary Internet Files" stored in my system. My scanner (Avast) gets jammed up sorting through this junk and it takes forever to complete a scan. It can take hours just to do a Quick Scan. I realize I can set the scanner to avoid going through these files but what I really want to do is get all of it out of my system. I used to be able to empty all of that stuff out manually when I had Windows XP. How do I dump this stuff (empty the cache?) with Windows 7?
I would like to be able to view the various temporary internet file folders like I used to with my previous version of Windows. Can anyone tell me how I can do this. I have tried using: C:> UsersMy DirectoryAppDatalocalMicrososft. According to my antivirus scan tool, the temporary internet files are located within the Microsoft directory but when I try to access that directory it's not there.
I have a system with 32gb DDR3-2400, a 256GB SSD and a couple of spinners. I have set up 4gb of the RAM to be used as another RAMdisk using the softperfect software. This problem has been going on for some time, but has been more of a problem since I started using the RAMdisk. Not because the RAMdisk itself isn't working well, because the stuff that is stored there keeps getting reset.I have pretty much identified that when updates are installed through windows update (either from Microsoft update or from my WSUS server), the following are reset to defaults
1. Pagefile is automatically managed and stored on the C: drive and is set to 32gb
2. The TEMP and TMP environment variables are reset to the C:users default location
3. The temporary Internet Files location is reset to the default C:users... location
There may be others that I have not discovered.I have manually set my swap file to 1024/2048 on the D: drive (a spinner), on the belief that it should rarely if ever be needed with a system equipped with 32GB of RAM. I'm certainly not inclined to waste 32GB of space on my SSD for an unused object.I have placed the TMP/TEMP files, cookies and Temporary Internet files on the RAMdisk to squeeze a little extra performance out of the system. (Yes, I know, I'm not really getting much benefit).Photoshop and a few other programs also use the RAMdisk as a scratch disk, and were the main reason I set it up in the first place.This is becoming a real pain when it gets reset as I have to manually change everything again. Anyone know a way to make windows leave settings at what I set them, instead of having it continually reset the values to what it wants? I'd prefer to have it my way. I know there will be proponents of "leave things as windows wants it".
I'm trying to clean up my SSD and free as much space as I possibly can. I noticed Adobe Acrobat has saved a huge cache of files in a temporary folder that - when I try to locate the folder under Windows using the exact same path, it doesn't exist. Is it possible to delete these and other temp files? How do I look for them?
When i start run and type any drive letter e.g: D, then all the recently opened items from that drive are listed. How do I clear this list? The exact problem is described in this thread as well and I've tried the solution mentioned here:[URL]
I have windows 7 on my HP desktop and i needed windows xp for a certain program for school so i created a partition of 40 GB and formatted it as NTFS... I booted the installation disk and it was loading setup and it said the thier is no disk drive or partitions so i booted 7 back up and Googled it and it said something about raid drivers and SCSI or something needing to be updated... so i booted into setup and noticed that my SAta controler or waterva it is was set to raid so i set it to IDE and booted it this time after loading setup fles my partitions were there so i selected the 40 gb partition and pressed install it copied seup files for Windows xp and said rebooting... it rebooted and all i see is ( _ ) <-- that thing blinking forever so what do i do i've been googling it for ever and cant find what i want so either what do i do to fix it and install windows xp so it's working or just get rid of xp and it temporary copied install files
I have windows 7 home premium, and I am trying to disable deleting temporary files. I have tried through regedit, under HKey_Current_User under Software/Policies/Microsoft/Internent Explorer/ControlPanel, it is set to 1. It is working but how about to disable deleting temporary files?
I need to clear up some disk-space by moving lots of picture and movie files to an external hard drive. On xp and previous you just right click and move them. On seven it is not so simple it seems.
i am preparing my system for ssd migration, my hdd is getting very grindy and slow even simply browsing, eg. moving to different parts of a Internet video pauses for a second with hdd activity.
so i moved the ie temp folder to a ram disk i made (this also save some writes on my new ssd when i migrate) and i thought great job done as ie snappy. however i also see my cookies in that folder which will be gone when i reboot, not good. i have some permanent cookies which stop me needing to login to sites again and again.
so it seems i either need to keep ie temp files on permanent storage, or be willing to lose my cookies whenever i reboot. can the cookies be put in a seperate folder away from the temp cache files?
Issue #1: All of a sudden, I couldn't print .pdf files (various adobe error messages in different browsers, or messages telling me I hadn't selected a print range - yes I did!).
Issue #2. I followed some advice and uninstalled Adobe Reader, then tried to re-install it. I can't re-install it. When I try to re-install using Internet Explorer, I get the first two dialogue boxes where I checked "run," but the third dialog box I am supposed to get, according to Adobe, never pops up - the one that is suposed to ask me if I want to grant permission). I temporarily disabled my software security and tried again, but the third box never comes up. The adobe instruction page just sits there - no signs of life, download activity, brainwave activity, etc.
Issue #3. I followed more advice and tried to install Adobe Reader using a different browser - Mozilla. Just for fun, the issues are different this browser - still can't download, but this browser tells me "unable to write to temp. directory C:usersmynameappDatalocalmp29061 error = 3 = > The system cannot find the path specified" It tells me to change my permissions, or save elsewhere. It never gives me the opportunity of a choice to save it elsewhere, and I can't get access to the folder to change permissions. I can't find it, after getting advice on how to find it. It's just not there! I am the administrator of this home computer.
Issue #4: In the meantime, I had placed a call to Adobe's help desk. They called back and told me to first install Google Chrome, which is more compatible with newer versions of Adobe Reader.
Issue #5: When trying to install Google chrome, I went through the same download problesm as under Issue #2 and issue #3. I found a version of Google chrome already downloaded on my computer, however, and launched it.
Issue #6 I tried to download Adobe Reader now using Google Chrome. Nope, same issues as before. I spent lots of time trying to get find and/or get access to temp file. Can't find it to change permissions on it .
Issue #7 I am minutes away from throwing pc into a snowbank and running over it with my car. Multiple times.
I can no longer upload files to the internet. When I try to Internet Explorer 9 crashes and restarts. The same thing happens when I right click on a picture on the internet and try to save it to my computer. The only changes to my computer was I upgraded the Norton Anti Virus software. I've reinstalled IE9 and same thing. I tried reinstalling Norton and same thing.
I have my tower pc on constant all day- to record a streaming IP Camera from my work.Initially, I saved these files into my docutments- which they would save as .avi files, and after every several days I would delete them as they would take up ALOT of space on my pc.My pc is 250GB in size, and usually it would be about 80GB full before I had the IP Camera. Just recently, I noticed all of the IP Camera avi files seemed to have disappeared from my documents if I went directly to the folder... I could still see them in documents when I was choosing a location to save the recordings.Upon right-clicking the avi files in the latter, the files would be of no size and wouldn't play.Now my computer is 210GB full in the matter of a week.
My acer computer with windows 7 64-bit professional home edition will not allow me to log on to my user profile. Only to temporary profile so i cannot access my personal files. It started out not letting me log on at all and then when it finaly did it did what i described earlyer.
I want to clear everything I have on my hard drive because it is getting pretty cluttered.Can someone tell me how I can clear my data but still keep my OS?Pretty much I just want all my data and programs to be deleted (ill install them later), but still keep the OS.
Right now I have my system set up so that my windows files are on my SSD, but my users file is on my HDD.
Thing is that I am going home for xmas and wish to take only my laptop. I took the HDD out of my laptop and set it up in a RAID0 array with a couple other drives.
So I wish to just install my SSD into my laptop and run windows off of it, but I cannot do so without a user profile. So I was wondering if there was a way to set up and temporary user profile for myself without having to change all the registry settings?
My sister sent our PC to her friend to have Windows 7 put on it and now the C: drive is almost maxed out. I don't know if it was that way before it was sent out or not, but it's definitely closer to the max than i would like it to be. I was able to clear about 30gb of space so now there's about 45gb worth of free space out of 143gb total. I have absolutely NO clue what is taking up so much space. Any help to get that number down would be great. We don't have an exorbitant amount of movies, pictures or music files on the computer either. So i'm really lost as to where it could be coming from.
I apologize this is a long post and hopefully I am making sense.I got this computer in January 2012, its a HP TouchSmart 610 All in One Desktop with Windows 7.Approx around 10 September 2012 my computer went into temporary profile mode.
''You have been logged on with a temporary profile.
You cannot access your files and files created in this profile will be deleted when you log off. To fix this, log off and try logging on later. Please see the event log for details of contact system administrator.''For the first few days I shut own the computer and restarted and there was no major dramas. But that opinion quickly became a no quick fix.I called HP and over the phone that an automatic Microsoft Updates must be corrupt, hence the problems. I was walked through a Microsoft System Restore. This was down when the computer was starting up and by pressing F11. We went back a few days but this message popped up after Microsoft System restore.
I have a problem with my Windows 7. Every time when I log on, I'll get a Temporary profile.I open RegEdit and check: C:HKEY_Local_MachineSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionProfileList and there is a .bak file on my true User profile. So I rename the temp_userfile to .fault and delete the .bak on my true User profile. I also change the value in the State Word to 0 (there's always a number here: 36840). After that a press F5(Update) and restart my computer, and everything works like a charm! Then, on the very next day when I start the computer I have to do it all one more time!Why is the State-word always overwritten?
I logged onto my account on my laptop, and when it loaded, a message came up saying "User logged on with temporary profile. Log in later to fix this problem." I couldn't access any of my files or folders, and it looked like a guest account. All the other accounts work. I haven't done anything out of the ordinary on my computer lately. I burned Ubuntu to my flash drive for my other computer using Live USB Install last night and then logged off. Someone else in my house logged onto their profile and when I logged onto mine a few minutes ago, I got that error message. I tried logging out and logging back in, and it didn't work.
For about a week now my laptop has been starting with a 'Temporary Profile' It says that i should retry logging on later, but i have tried logging on many time, the thing is, as well as it loading up onto a Temporary Profile, it litterally takes 10 minutes for my laptop to load, it say the 'Welcome' screen for ages, then says 'Preparing your desktop' then loads the temporary profile, i've tried rebooting, system restore, but it does exactly the same thing?
